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.

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.

TORRENTADO I like this app. It keeps me organized. But, honestly the icon is forgettable. I do hope we'll have an icon that looks good on a mac dock. Anyway, good job on the app.

AESCHYLUS Has anyone else noticed that the Evernote icon does not appear in the Safari toolbar in Snow Leopard? This is very troubling, as I had come to depend on Evernote quite a bit.

BENKOPF Hi, I found this: http://www.switchersblog.com/2009/07/a-potential-solution-to-keep-1passwords-button-in-safari-4s-toolbar.html So it appears that Evernote is aware of the problem and is trying to fix it. I tried the suggested fix for clearing the toolbar, etc. but it didn't work, but that was 1Password specific. I'm writing to EVN to see if there is a fix SOON, because I too use it daily on my job search. | |

ICONZ113 ya u have to run safari in 32 bit for evernote to display the icon, but then when doing that other apps that are updated dont work , evernote needs to put out an update that allows it to work on safari as is without any manipulation.

AYUB Wanted to have a try. Found it cool at start. Then I was copying all my VoodoopadLite notes to Evernote and everything was going fine. For two or three times during the copy the syncing went fine. Then suddenly it crashed! Was trying to send crash report. It was not responding (found in my LittleSnitch that it was trying to connect to .googlemail.com. Ok, had to quit from Activity Monitor. Then whenever I go to launch Evernote it keeps crashing. :( Bad luck for me. Ok, one thing may be that I pasted a big amount of text in a note and it couldn't handle it (maybe).

DON SYKES Evernote saved me big time! I've been using this program for a while and had moved over all my notes, and important information, including many work files (MS Word, Spreadsheets, etc). This was primarily so I could share the info between my desktop Mac and laptop PC (it's brilliant for this). On return from vacation, I had a Hard Drive fail and lost gobs of data - but not the info that was in Evernote. I simply formatted the new hard drive, added the Evernote app and was back up and running. Highly recommended.

ALLENH Because you haven't Command-Dragged it off the toolbar?

SIGIL I tried that many, many, many times. It shows back up when I restart Safari. I'm not the only one that has this issue.

I can't see why _I_ would choose not to have the clipper installed, but does turning off the feature in Evernote.app's Clipping PrefernecePane help?
