Extropy 68 Posted July 25, 2014 Share Posted July 25, 2014 I have a script that moves the currently selected note to a notebook called "Notes". It is mapped to ctrl-opt-f using "FastScripts" so I can quickly file things. I have been using it since 25 Jun 2014 with no trouble. Since 23 Jul 2014, moving notes with this script causes the change to "Notes" notebook to not sync. The note is still in "Notes" on the Mac client (5.5.2 (402634 Direct)) where I used the script, but not on any of the other clients (other Mac, iOS, web). I have confirmed this through repeated experiments. Here are the tests I did to confirm this: View a set of notes in the "Incoming" notebook in Mac Evernote client Change the notebook of "Note 1" to "Notes", using the drop down list to left of tags Sync Mac, then sync iPad "Note 1" shows up in "Notes" on iPad Change the notebook of "Note 2" to "Notes" using ctrl-cmd-m, then selecting "Notes" from the drop down list Sync Mac, then sync iPad "Note 2" shows up in "Notes" on iPad–– Everything is fine up to here –– Change the notebook of "Note 3" to "Notes" using ctrl-opt-f that calls the attached script Sync Mac, then sync iPad "Note 3" shows up in "Incoming" on iPad, even after multiple re-syncs. It should be in "Notes" I raised this as ticket # 655982 , and received the following reply from support, so I assume they will not investigate further. My script is attached. Has anyone seen anything like this before? Hi, my name is Jason. Thanks for contacting Evernote Support. Thank you for this feedback. I recommend that you bring this to our developer support forums. We have an active, supportive developer community here at Evernote.

Level 5* JMichaelTX 4,117 Posted July 26, 2014 Level 5* Share Posted July 26, 2014 Extropy, I can confirm the behavior you are seeing. I believe this is a BUG, and suggest that you respond to the Evernote Support email reporting it as a BUG. It seems that EN Mac 5.5.2 does NOT register that a change has been made to the Note when the Note is moved to a different Notebook via Applescript. I tested this using EN Mac, EN Web, and EN iPhone. It is clear that the change/move in the Note was NOT reported to the Evernote Cloud/Service. Link to comment
Extropy 68 Posted July 31, 2014 Author Share Posted July 31, 2014 Thanks, JMichael. I got a note yesterday from Jason at Evernote support, who has verified the problem and submitted it to the developers. Link to comment
SebastianP 0 Posted October 31, 2014 Share Posted October 31, 2014 Has this been resolved? I'm looking for a new solution as with the latest update I cannot script the "move to notebook: done" via the menubar as it always opens up the new notebook search window now. I have a workaround right now, but it feels to slow (keyboard maestro opens that search dialog and types in the name + return...) Link to comment
Extropy 68 Posted November 2, 2014 Author Share Posted November 2, 2014 I just did the following test. It still isn't fixed: Move a note from "Incoming" to "Notes" notebook using Applescript on MacBook Sync MacBook Sync iPad → Note still in "Incoming" Edit note on iPad Sync iPad Sync MacBook → The note syncs back to MacBook with correct edits, but moved back to "Incoming" Link to comment
SebastianP 0 Posted November 3, 2014 Share Posted November 3, 2014 aarh, that's a pity. Thanks for trying out!Would you mind asking Jason who contacted you earlier? I'm sure that will be faster and easier than opening a whole new ticket with anyone.Do you use any other workaround at the moment? Link to comment
Extropy 68 Posted November 24, 2014 Author Share Posted November 24, 2014 This is still broken in 6.0.1 Link to comment
Extropy 68 Posted January 12, 2015 Author Share Posted January 12, 2015 This is still broken in Evernote (Mac) 6.0.5. Additional observation: If I move a note using the script shown above, it shows as being in the "Notes" notebook on the Mac where I moved it, but stays in "Incoming" notebook on all other synced systems (iOS and Windows verified, didn't check web but assume it is still in "Incoming" there). If I the use the "Move to Notebook" GUI function in Evernote, and select "Notes" notebook, even though it already has a checkmark next to it, then sync, the note is moved correctly across all synced platforms.

SebastianP 0 Posted May 4, 2015 Share Posted May 4, 2015 Extropy, Thanks for updating and keeping track of this issue! Link to comment
Extropy 68 Posted May 4, 2015 Author Share Posted May 4, 2015 New ticket raised for this problem: 1050628 because I suspect the old one from Jul 2014 has been binned. Link to comment
Extropy 68 Posted May 6, 2015 Author Share Posted May 6, 2015 Tried to check the status of the old ticket, #655982. I had received a response from Jason at Evernote support that the bug had been verified and passed to the developers. I tried to contact Evernote regarding the old ticket, and received a canned response that the ticket number is invalid. This is one of the recurring problems with Evernote support. We have no visibility into the status of tickets, even after they have been validated by support. For the new ticket, all I have received is a request for description, logs, etc. I do not intend to resubmit this information, so I expect the new ticket will be dropped, too. In short, an unsatisfying support experience: Submit ticket Redirect to developer forum for confirmation Provide confirmation Receive confirmation from Evernote that the bug has been reproduced Wait 10 months and several versions ... Still not fixed, ticket has been closed Link to comment
SebastianP 0 Posted May 6, 2015 Share Posted May 6, 2015 I also have a ticket number to share in which the problem is described as well as it refers to this post: #1055346Seth from the support team is about to submit it to the developers and was not able to find the bug in their bug-report system. Maybe it got lost! Let's see if we have more luck this time. I'm positive on that! Link to comment

Extropy 68 Posted January 22, 2016 Author Share Posted January 22, 2016 Hooray! I don't know when it happened, but this finally appears to be fixed. Just verified with Evernote for Mac 6.4 (452969 Direct) and Evernote on iPad version 7.9.2.318622 as follows: Create "Test Note" in "Incoming" notebook on Mac Sync Mac Sync iPad Use Applescript (I bind mine to ctrl-alt-n) to move "Test Note" to "Notes" notebook on Mac Sync Mac Sync iPad Verify "Test Note" is in "Notes" notebook on iPad and Mac Create "Test Note" in "Incoming" notebook on iPad Sync iPad Sync Mac Use Applescript (I bind mine to ctrl-alt-n) to move "Test Note" to "Notes" notebook on Mac Sync Mac Sync iPad Verify "Test Note" is in "Notes" notebook on iPad and Mac Link to comment
