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.

    new version 3.5.1.1410 problems.
    Printing. Margins a off and image sizes are wrong. I printed on 3.1 and got everything correct, 3.5 imagaes twice as big and missing bottome part of page.
    Opening screen. I have two monitors. I store evernote on the second, but 3.5 opens on the primary, sized and possitioned as it would be on the secondary, but that’s the wrong one.
    Screen clipping. Really like ver 3.1 clipper with annotations rather than drag the crosshair and hope you get everything…
    Just did the edit an image in another program and save back to evernote…Nice…
    Have to stick with 3.1 for now

    I’m sticking with 3.1 until the tape view returns – I like simple not gee wizzy. You guys used to help me do my job now your technology is trying to drive me instead of the other way around.

    Nice 3.5 version. Runs perfectly on my Windows XP. Despite old processor. Like thumbnails showing size of textual notes. Thanx, go on like this.

  • jp

    I use a tablet computer in portrait orientation most of the time. The view that is a continuous tape of notes in 3.1 is awesome in this set-up. The 3.5 views suck. Thumbnail views are too small to be useful and list view gives you no text of the contents.

    3.5 is slower to respond as well. I’m sticking to 3.1. If OneNote lets me sync as easy as Evernote one day then then I’m jumping ship.

    Still missing “Install portable version” option which was great in 3.1. Also the Windows Mobile version does not display the notes it merely presents a list of them, but cannot open individual notes. As soon as these issues are resolved I might even move to Premium ’cause I like this thing :-)

    Very nice upgrade… unfortunately I had to uninstall it again. Even after removing version 3.1 the following bugs appeared:

    1) I can’t setup WIN+C as the shortcut for clipping. The input section simply shows .
    2) When clipping using the default shortcut or the context menu, a “can’t clip error” occurs.

    I hope these bugs will be fixed soon!

    when it copies the database do you basically have a duplicate of your data on your machine? I have limited hard drive space on one machine and need to know this before I can upgrade across all of them.

    Why isn’t the HTML editing better?

    The toolbar is ‘fuzzy’ to the eye on my notebook.

    Trying to work with tables is impossible and formatting the notes is basically difficult other than real basis text formats like BOLD.

    I love the concept, but it feels like I’m not in control of my personal notes!

    I am on the free subscription, maybe this is something you don’t give away.

    I’ve just upgraded from Evernote 3.1 and I have to say that I miss the note interface from version 3.1 of the product.

    I suggest keeping the newly revamped interface, as it is good too, but I would like a new view added that provides the notes interface from version 3.1.

    Thanks!

  • MS

    Agree, loadup performance is abysmal compared to 3.1. I have three notes loaded into each on Vista and memory (priv):
    3.1 = 15,740K
    3.5 = 83,108K

    This may be an unfair comparison as I haven’t loadtested them.
