Compatibility issues

We have identified a couple compatibility problems. Computers with the NVIDIA Quadro NVS video card are unable to run Evernote 3.5. Also, some users have reported font blurriness, which appears to be caused by an underlying incompatibility between .NET and some older video cards and drivers. In both cases, we are working with the manufacturers to find a resolution. Users affected by these issues should continue using Evernote for Windows 3.1 until they are resolved

Note to Evernote 3.1 users

If you’re using Evernote for Windows 3.1, we encourage you to try 3.5 by downloading it directly. 3.5 and 3.1 can coexist on the same machine, so you can decide if you’re ready to make the switch. There are many changes in 3.5, and more are still coming, so we do not want to auto-upgrade 3.1 users until we’ve worked out an easy migration strategy.

    so, if 3.5.1 is the latest Windows version, why does my currently installed 3.1.0.1225 version tell me there is no update available?

    I haven’t used EverNote in a long time but thought I would try it again. This new 3.5 version is a mess! I was about to delete my Evernote account for good when I read comments here and found out the previous version is still available.

    I do software development for a living; some heads really need to roll for this atrocity that is this latest version. I can’t believe you aren’t listening to user feedback.

    I love Evernote! … but don’t force us to go 3.5! I’m using it on my pc at work and I just can’t install .net 3.5 because of corporate policy. 3.1 runs just fine!

  • Buddhi

    I really miss the ability to select something on-screen, draw on it or whatever, then decide whether to save it or copy it or put it into Evernote. This very awesome feature has disappeared from 3.5 sadly!! :(

    I agree with several of the other comments. I just installed Evernote 3.5 and it’s horrible. I was just getting used to Evernote 3.0 from the older windows edition and still have both of those older editions on my computer. I plan to go back to the oldest version. This new one is horrible!

    If you autoupgrade 3.1 to 3.5, I will most likely stop using Evernote (I use it to organize pretty much everything, but I can’t work with the new interface).
