the note was just fine, then i added 4 more text lines on top. and since then i have the same synch problem message “The content is not valid”

and if i copy the content of the note to a new note under different name. then it also will bring the same synch error message.

I have problem syncing with Windows 7 64 bit too and evernote keeps taking 50% of my CPU ? I think i’m gonna go back to one-note and sync with my windows live account.

I’ve heard there are some wildlife groups trying to get Apple to do more stuff with the actual S.L.’s lol. I don’t know- people are saying it’s good PR for Apple- they should jump on that.

For the “Tag names must be unique” message, I had two tag names that were the same, except one of them was capitalized. I deleted one and it synced. Hope this helps.

With OSX “Find in evernote” on menu bar circumnavigates login screen (you can just move it out of way) with full access to everything – please can you make more secure?

Just installed Evernote_57356.dmg which delivers Version 1.4.9 (57356). This one works! Got 2 machines with Evernote & Snow Leopard, some files which I created with the wrong version gave sync errors, deleted them and imported the content again with text edit, it’s working now!

Keeps hanging on me too, I eventually installed an older version to start using it again and ignore the sync issues for now. It keeps saying

- The note XXX could not be synced. The content is not valid

Now I add the tag synissue to each new item and refrain from editing old items

Hope this doesn’t take too long to fix!

Latest release still hangs on sync for me every time. I have to force quit. (Snow Leopard)

I hope Evernote takes the opportunity to capitalize on Snow Leopards new Services Architecture. I don’t see any talk about it yet.

Snow Leopard beta working great for me. Thanks for a great product!

Did the release of the Snow Leopard come as a surprise to the Evernote Developers or what? I thought Apple always gives beta versions for the developers to play with, wouldn’t this allow you to prepare for the bugs and such? Why didn’t you?

(Not to be mean, I’m really curious – how come you guys are totally unprepared? Is it because Apple doesn’t give the developer versions to everyone or why?)

I downloaded the release candidate, and it still won’t sync. It’s a disaster for me. I rely on Evernote for my work and now it’s busted!

This is the error:
Evernote is unable to connect with the Evernote Service. This may be due to a network problem or service maintenance. Please try again later. If enabled, automatic synchronization will resume once the Service becomes available.

I’ve only had CPU usage problems with Evernote in Snow Leopard. I also missed the elegant clipper and in Snow Leopard both Firefox and Safari had the less robust web clipper. BUT here’s what I did — I used Firefox with Rosetta. When I restarted Firefox I was told there was an update for Evernote webclipper (this update was not there in 64-bit mode). I installed the update, exited Firefox and then switched Firefox again to 64-bit mode by unchecking Rosetta). Wow, it works like the old Leopard installation again.

As for Safari, just run in 32-bit mode. Safari 64-bit keeps crashing anyways. The clipper works well in that mode.

Hi, all! Do anyone know when a fix will be available?

Hangs on sync. Restarting doesn’t seem to change that…

Guys, please update quickly…I cant live withouth Evernote and I cant even sync my notes.

Thanks Andrew, I am still having the same problem in the release candidate: a “Tag names must be unique” error message that appears every 10-15 seconds… I never had this problem before I installed Snow Leopard, and I’ve been using EN for a year.

I hope the final release version can fix this. In the meantime, is there any kind of known fix or workaround?

Thank you! Synch fixed with your release candidate for Snow Leopard as is iPhoto. This is a superb product! I have been using a Mac for a long time, an iPhone for a short time – and this is life changing software. Bows and salutes!

UPDATE We've put together a release candidate of the upcoming Evernote for Mac version 1.4.9, which should fix many of the Snow Leopard issues mentioned below. Please be aware that this is not the final release, so you may encounter bugs and other issues. We plan to release the final patch through our normal autoupdate system next week.

Release candidate installation

- Quit Evernote (if you have it running) - Go to you Applications folder and drag Evernote into trash - Download and install the release candidate

I’d like to see Clipper and other features be added to the Services Menu under Snow Leopard. That’s the proper way to integrate into the OS level.

@Christopher We will fix this issue in the next release. For now the workaround is to click on Evernote in the dock, the go to File and select New Evernote Window
