Evernote problems

  • DNS Benchmark v2 is Finished and Available!
    Guest:
    That's right. It took an entire year, but the result far more accurate and feature laden than we originally planned. The world now has a universal, multi-protocol, super-accurate, DNS resolver performance-measuring tool. This major second version is not free. But the deal is, purchase it once for $9.95 and you own it — and it's entire future — without ever being asked to pay anything more. For an overview list of features and more, please see The DNS Benchmark page at GRC. If you decide to make it your own, thanks in advance. It's a piece of work I'm proud to offer for sale. And if you should have any questions, many of the people who have been using and testing it throughout the past year often hang out here.

  • BootAble – FreeDOS boot testing freeware

    To obtain direct, low-level access to a system's mass storage drives, SpinRite runs under a GRC-customized version of FreeDOS which has been modified to add compatibility with all file systems. In order to run SpinRite it must first be possible to boot FreeDOS.

    GRC's “BootAble” freeware allows anyone to easily create BIOS-bootable media in order to workout and confirm the details of getting a machine to boot FreeDOS through a BIOS. Once the means of doing that has been determined, the media created by SpinRite can be booted and run in the same way.

    The participants here, who have taken the time to share their knowledge and experience, their successes and some frustrations with booting their computers into FreeDOS, have created a valuable knowledgebase which will benefit everyone who follows.

    You may click on the image to the right to obtain your own copy of BootAble. Then use the knowledge and experience documented here to boot your computer(s) into FreeDOS. And please do not hesitate to ask questions – nowhere else can better answers be found.

    (You may permanently close this reminder with the 'X' in the upper right.)

I've been using Evernote for a number of years, I guess probably originally following a recommendation from Steve or Leo. In which case there should be a few users here. It's always done the job though sometimes creating duplicate notes probably as a result of a synchronisation failure. As a mature product it's disappointing they never seem to have got that sorted.

But lately, updates to a couple of notes (to which I continuouly append) have got lost - very annoying. And as of yesterday, suddenly it's demanding payment for access by more than one device.

I've always only used the free tier and I can't blame them for requesting payment for access from multiple devices, but withdrawing support for this without notice is not on.

Does this accord with other people's experience? What is anyone else doing about it? I'm experimenting with Joplin which seems very similar, and have successfully imported all my notes with just a few glitches to do with tables not coming across properly - fairly easily fixed - though not yet sorted out a satisfactory free sync strategy.
