Chantal Leonard 213 Posted September 6, 2017 Share Posted September 6, 2017 Folks - we've releasing an update to Mac 6.12 with a fix for a persistent crash some users are seeing on quit. It's now available on the App Store or download it here. The link on the evernote.com website should be updated in the next day or so. Thanks, Chantal and the rest of the Mac team Link to comment

cameronreilly 16 Posted September 12, 2017 Share Posted September 12, 2017 I upgraded to the GA yesterday and I'm getting a ton of "conflicting changes" on notes I'm actively working on. This is appalling. Link to comment

This is appalling. This is one of my issues. It is quite dysfunctional. I'm working solely on the Mac desk-top version. Half-way through writing a simple note a conflicting note is created. Is this a problem in communication with the server? Or??? Over the course of a couple of hours of use I've had about 10 of them. The previous version had no such problems. Please let us know this is an issue that is being addressed. I cannot base my work-flow around this sort of confusion. Other issues include Evernote freezing and not responding to mouse clicks. I can open the app but clicking on Stacks has no result. So.... I've only recently started using Evernote in a big way. Bought a premium account and taken the trouble to set up my folders in a well-organised fashion. A good tool is available and works when needed. This is not Evernote for me. Rather disappointed. I thought Evernote had risen above the issues of a few years back. Link to comment
cameronreilly 16 Posted September 12, 2017 Share Posted September 12, 2017 Does anyone know how I tell WHAT the conflicting changes are? These notes are 5000 words. How do I know which version I should be using? The latest? Link to comment

Does anyone know how we can assign 100% table-width so that it takes up the entire screen? if this doesn't exist, it causes 2 problems for us: 1) tables to resize for different screens 2) every single table we create, we have to resize it to fit our needs and our content (it doesn't appear to size based on content either). Hopefully, I'm just missing something. Link to comment

ColD 5 Posted September 13, 2017 Share Posted September 13, 2017 New version of Evernote with the 'new' tables don't print correctly. No matter how wide I make the table or if I print at <100%, it crops off the text in the box (see attached), the view on the Mac looks fine. Link to comment

Over the course of a couple of hours of use I've had about 10 of them. The previous version had no such problems. I'm seeing this exact same problem. Every few seconds/minutes of typing results in a conflict. The "Sync" button is going nuts as I type. It'll start and stop syncing multiple times as I'm typing. My guess is that the timer that waits until you're done typing is off so it tries to sync multiple times as we're typing, thus causing the conflicts. PLEASE fix this. It makes the app work terribly. NOTE: I even changed the Preferences > Sync option to "Manually" to stop these bizarre conflicts and it still tries to synchronize messages automatically. Link to comment

PK_C 0 Posted September 15, 2017 Share Posted September 15, 2017 Like other users I'm disappointed with the limitations on how I can view notebooks. Having to scroll to use them is just not efficient. Really seems like a step backwards to have list form instead of something more visual. Link to comment

mitra2145 0 Posted September 25, 2017 Share Posted September 25, 2017 THE LIST VIEW IS TOTAL NONSENSE - why do i need a computer if im forced to work as if im in front of a piece of paper. users seems generally to enjoy having OVERVIEWS OF ALL THEIR NOTES (in a way they could not possibly do in paper notes) and the new version just destroyed this great quality. i wonder if these developers use evernote how they cannot imagine this as valuable user experience. CAN YOU PLEASE BRING BACK THE OPTIONS WITH TILES ASAP??????? i personally cannot work with evernote in this way. Link to comment
ikeaboy 0 Posted September 26, 2017 Share Posted September 26, 2017 I have the same problem of conflicting changes as other users reported. I am writing a simple text memo and I am getting multiple conflicting changes and Evernote sync is in overdrive! It makes Evernote unusable. Link to comment

JanieDoe 0 Posted October 5, 2017 Share Posted October 5, 2017 Just want to add my opinion to the 1.5 billion other people who have stated the new list view sucks. Sad to say I've been a satisfied customer of Evernote for years, but am now being forced to search for other options. Link to comment
XLII 0 Posted October 16, 2017 Share Posted October 16, 2017 Hi Evernote, I was just told by your expert that the atlas feature has now been removed and the clunky note view is "how evernote now wants you to interact with your data". As much as I respect your point of view, I feel I know better how I want to interact with my data and it isn't a long list of bland notes with inefficient use of margin space. But to get to the actual serious issue. I travel constantly and have YEARs of location specific notes for the purpose of accessing them BY LOCATION. That feature is removed. There are months of work in there and it will take me a few weeks (full-time) to reproduce the structure I've created in a different service. It may come as a surprise to you that some people use Evernote for work, but we do and when you remove a feature without a warning, you actually put our income and credibility in jeopardy, as I have experienced today with a client. I've already contacted you directly for legal compensation, but I'm logging this here as a request to please bring back the features I rely on in my daily work. Link to comment

You should read the "Rights to modify service" section of the Evernote TOS that you agreed to when you signed up.

XLII 0 Posted October 24, 2017 Share Posted October 24, 2017 True. haha I haven't read the thing properly. Guess I deserve that. Gonna try to revert to previous version for now, if possible... The new version is kind of hard to use. Link to comment
vidalThemes 0 Posted December 9, 2017 Share Posted December 9, 2017 Do not like the new list based notebook view at all, I could see all my notebooks and stacks at a glance but now have a long list to scroll through, how is this better usability? Link to comment

GoProBeta 30 Posted September 6, 2017 Share Posted September 6, 2017 Chantal, I am very glad to hear that an update has been released. Evernote became unusable for me on MAC since the initial 6.12 update (unable to open previous notes, crashes...) With that said, it appears the default Notebook view has changed from a Grid of Notebook cards to a simple list. I have been unsuccessful in either finding how to switch back to the former view or any discussions on this topic in the forums. Can you provide any insight into this issue? Thanks. Note: I see that my profile has Windows 10, that is one of my platforms, but this note is related to MAC / Ed Update: I just found the thread on this issue and see that this view is be design and the Evernote team has removed the old view. I will continue this feedback on the appropriate thread. Link to comment

bambooparadox 40 Posted September 7, 2017 Share Posted September 7, 2017 Hi I updated from 6.11.1 to 6.12.1 today. New Tables look great, when i comes to rearranging columns and rows - this is a huge step forward ? But there is a big step back for me, when i look at the table-width! As i see it, 6.12.1 has removed all my previous 100% table-width by a fixed table-width ☹️ When i take my Macbook Pro on the road and my 27" external Screen is no longer available, i have to horizontally scroll all those many tables. How can i set those tables to 100% table-width again? Link to comment

Thanks, Chantal and the rest of the Mac team Hi, I updated to 6.12.1 today and now the text encoding goes weird when I copy from Evernote to Microsoft Word for Mac. For example, smart quotes look like this when copied: “Quote†But if I write new text in Evernote and then copy it, it copies fine. It is only for text written before the upgrade. Can you advise me how to proceed? Many thanks! Link to comment
cmdawest@gmail.com 1 Posted September 8, 2017 Share Posted September 8, 2017 I do NOT like the functionality or the appearance of the new 6.12.1. The notebooks used to stack in columns and I could see them all at a glance. Now I have to scroll to see them. And all of the wasted space running horizontally across the page for each notebook... What was the thinking behind that? And whoever chose the new color scheme doesn't understand color value. Pale gray against pale taupe? The notebooks are hardly visible against the pale background. At least you left the notes white so they stand out. I rue the fact that I upgraded EN. I really like this app, less today than earlier this morning, but I still like it. But why do you mess with what's already working? If this had been an improvement, Kudos! But no kudos for this upgrade. Link to comment
Quartzbee 1 Posted September 9, 2017 Share Posted September 9, 2017 The new view of notebooks sucks. It's clunky and all the stacks barf out their subnotebooks as a long scrollable list. I thought it was a bug and reported it and some dude you call "expert" said it's a feature, not a bug. So what gives? Why limit the way I interact with my data? Why can't I go back to the tile view? Why only one option, it's not like I'm asking to alter the underlying notes or notebook stacks, I just want a tile view to quickly glance over my stacks. Link to comment
Quartzbee 1 Posted September 9, 2017 Share Posted September 9, 2017 Now that YouTube has finished rolling out their new layout and updated logo, will Evernote be able to save videos again soon? The "YouTube Video" option doesn't appear in the Clipper's list and none of the options presented seems to recognize that there's a video to include. Link to comment

All it does is make us more dependent on the service. Last time EN was under a DDOS attack, not only could we not get to our data, we couldn't click on links in our notes to other notes because their server was overloaded.
