ESTNYC I like Evernote, but since upgrading to 1.7.1, it's been syncing the same five files over and over again. It's really bugging the heck out of me. I was hoping this 1.7.2 release would address this, but there's nothing about it in the release notes. Sigh.

LORD LIGHTNING Er! I'm not a fanboy so I have two questions. Doesn't this thing open your computer and it's documents to the internet? Why would you do that?

NOWODU People who understand something are "fanboys" of it? That's kind of an insulting way to start a question. I think what confuses people new to Evernote is that they see it as a "library" that they are going to dump all their existing documents into. Devonthink or Eagle Filer would better for that. Everything that I have in Evernote, I created in it. I've never come even remotely close to the monthly upload limits. If I make a web clipping on the desktop, I can read it on the iPhone. If I take a snapshot or make a voicenote on the mobile phone, I can refer to it on the laptop. If I change a note on the laptop, I can check it on the web account. That's "why you would do that". The idea of Evernote is that it's a super notebook/scrapbook that doesn't live on any one machine, but is backed up and and available offline on all of them.

CHEESEHEAD This is a great app. I had a hard time with Apple's notes with synching to the iphone and not being able to work with them on the PC. Evernote works great on the mac, iphone, and the PC.

ICONZ113 Evernote has been very useful to me. I use it to capture information including snippets of text from websites, bookmarks, emails, pictures, create notes, I also utilize the OCR technology that is implemented when notes are synced, this comes in handy when doing research for school assignments. One thing I don't use it for, is file organization. All of my documents I keep organized with folders. One reason I don't keep all my documents in EN is because I'm concerned about having certain documents online, also Evernote's ability to export to the format the file was when it was imported can sometimes be difficult or tricky. I feel I have more control when organizing my files and documents manually. I think of evernote as an "everything else" organizer. Other then that I think EN is a great application. Another plus is its ability to keep all your notes synced with all your computers and the iphone client is pretty cool too. The only issue I have with Evernote is the EN helper thats added to login items every time you start the application. When I manually remove the helper from login items it adds itself the next time the application is started. Not that big of a deal I just like keeping login items to a minimum. Evernote also features a web clipper browser plugin, making it easier to clip and save information while browsing.

JIMK I may have found a way to keep the Evernote helper out of the login items. • In Evernote's preferences, go to the Shortcuts tab. • Remove the shortcuts (click the X for each active shortcut as you hover over its entry). • In Apple System Preferences, remove the Evernote Helper item. On my system, the Evernote Helper has not returned. This also means that you can't use global keyboard shortcuts for Evernote (which doesn't bother me, as I never used them). | |

DLWHITE I've tested Evernote periodically, but it's never been compelling for ONE SIMPLE REASON: It doesn't let you manually order your notes (like in iTunes playlists.) A simple program like MyNotes will let me order my notes, but Evernote won't? WTF? iTunes has given us this simple, natural functionality for YEARS now. It's what people are accustomed to. It's what people WANT to be able to do. It's MY INFORMATION. Let me ORGANIZE it how I see fit. Evernote, PLEASE catch up. I cannot fathom what the possible excuse is for not including this bare-bones functionality. It should be cost-of-entry for any note-taking app.

ANG I have just tried MyNotes... Not free, no sync, no webclipper, no web access, no iphone, no multiplatform... Hey where is richtext ? Sorry this is definitively not the same type of software. Evernote ROCKS

DLWHITE @ANG, perhaps you missed my point. MyNotes is a simple, no-frills, note taking app. My point was that it makes no sense that Evernote, being this massive juggernaut of a program with so many accolades and fanboys, is seemingly unable to do something that the MyNotes program has allowed me to do for years. Can anyone explain that to me? Evernote doesn't offer the option to let me manually reorder content - as iTunes has allowed us all to do (for FREE) for YEARS. It seems like an egregious oversight in an otherwise exemplary program. So why doesn't Evernote CORRECT THIS GLARING OMISSION? It's my data. I want to put in whatever order I please. That's really not a lot to ask of a standalone app, is it???

ICONZ113 Another thing would be being able to remove EN from the startup items. After you manually remove EN from startup items, once you activate the app, it adds itself to start up list again. I try to keep the things that startup when I log in to a minimum, I already have other things starting up and if I don't need the helper running anyway, why not let me remove it. How about implementing that into a future release? The only thing that bugs me.

IGREG I tried last year and had some problems with formatting and dropped it. I thought I would try it again and had even more problems, I could not even import some text files. When I tried importing files they were all greyed out and could not be selected. If it is not not me and a feature of Evernote that it can not import rich text or text files then it is of no use to me. I have thousands of notes.

BDIKKAT You CAN import any file type to Evernote using Snow Leopard services and then configuring the "Keyboard Shortcuts" system preference. The services are available at http://bit.ly/4mPthb. This means you can assign any key to whip a file quickly into Evernote. (To be able to put *any* file type in, you need to be a Premium user).
