pkrahn 1 Posted February 22, 2015 Share Posted February 22, 2015 Work Chat is a fantastic feature. I can communicate easily about our project, and it was working pretty reliably last week. I've been using it for about three weeks now altogether. Now though it's almost unusable. It's getting more and more sluggish, everytime I'm receiving text from someone else, I can't type. When I send a message I have to wait for a while until I can type again. What's going on? Why is the sync hanging up my powerful PC constantly? All the other features in Evernote work just fine.

What else (if anything) is happening on your network connection? and are we talking Win 7 or 8 here? If you're a premium subscriber, raise a support request now, and try the Chat option (7am-7pm PST) for a quick response. Link to comment
pkrahn 1 Posted February 22, 2015 Author Share Posted February 22, 2015 My other account is premium, but I can't ask for live help on the weekend. Maybe they'll get back to me tomorrow. But anyway, I use Windows 8.1, and the online version of Work Chat has no issues. But it's annoying to use because it's a tiny box and it doesn't automatically scroll down, you have to do it yourself when someone responds. I have 16 gig of ram and had no issues last week when also having multiple programs open at the same time. Now I just had evernote open and no difference. Link to comment
pkrahn 1 Posted February 23, 2015 Author Share Posted February 23, 2015 Seems like it's magically working fine once again, last night it was barely usable and this morning it was great, must have been a software update? I didn't even restart my computer so they must have changed something. Link to comment
Level 5* gazumped 11,664 Posted February 24, 2015 Level 5* Share Posted February 24, 2015 Maybe it was just net traffic... Link to comment
pkrahn 1 Posted February 24, 2015 Author Share Posted February 24, 2015 No, it wasn't that, I have lots of bandwidth, no issues for the week or so it wasn't working. It was definitely an issue with Evernote itself. Link to comment
pkrahn 1 Posted February 26, 2015 Author Share Posted February 26, 2015 And now the problem is back! Same as before. It mysteriously went away and worked perfectly for a couple of days, and now it's just as sluggish as earlier. Can't figure out what I've changed. Link to comment
Level 5* gazumped 11,664 Posted February 26, 2015 Level 5* Share Posted February 26, 2015 Hmmn. Back to the live help I guess.. is there a lot of traffic on your network connection? Link to comment
pkrahn 1 Posted February 26, 2015 Author Share Posted February 26, 2015 There's three users of this network, but plenty of leftover bandwidth. And the bandwidth hasn't changed, although this week there's actually one person missing so if anything it should go faster. I guess I could try live chat but I did email them last time when nobody was live to help, and nobody answered. Link to comment
