It’s sad that the search by Evernote with Livescribe doesn’t work. It would have been nice.

Amazing things here. I’m very happy to see your post. Thanks a lot and I’m taking a look ahead to touch you. Will you kindly drop me a e-mail?

Select the notes you want together, right click, merge notes.

I like the pen and Evernote is the strongest tool I use in my business. Evernote and Livescribe together is a slick idea but is missing one peace…synchronization. I would find it better if once a Livescribe ‘note’ was modified using livescribe itself it would update itself in Evernote. If I have a small project I will take notes at the beginning of the engagement and upload the Livescribe notes to Evernote. I draw check boxes in my written notes so I know it is an item to complete. If I check them on paper I want to see the completion on my computer or phone. I also add some typed notes, screen shots, etc. to the same EN note. When I meet back with the client I write notes on the same livescribe paper pages. Currently I have to remember to delete the original attachment and re-attach the new pdf. If only the two could identify that it is the same livescribe notebook and page and ask to replace the current one. I like the pen and live daily by Evernote.

Using my Windows XP Pro system, I’ve found that when you select, then drag and drop multiple notes onto the Evernote connector the Evernote connector will merge the notes together on the Evernote website. If you drag and drop them seperately then they will upload as seperate files. So far, so good. Hand Written Recognition and Search work very well. Evernote and Livescribe have done an outstanding job of making this system seamless. But there’s still good work to do to make this product the invention of the decade.

Why are the livescribe notes becoming dead notes in evernote?

You should tear the pages from your notebook when synced with evernote. Adding written comments on a formally written note is hard to manage and organize. I think it could be better.

I use evernote to store and organize my stuff. I use dot paper pages that are put as notes in books. When I add something to the dot paper I want this to show up in evernote, without having to
(1) send the updated page to evernote,
(2) search for the old note and remember the notebook you put it in ,
(3) delete the old evernote note, then
(4) add the note to the right notebook in evernote.

It would be great is to have a real synchronization of the handwritten pages to the right notebook in evernote. It would boost the synchronization between paper and cloud working.

Seriously? It’s much easier to just plug your pen in. The problem with syncing to Evernote is that it breaks apart the files. A work around for this (still presuming you don’t need audio) would be to print to PDF first, and then drop it into Evernote.

Unless you need to save the audio along with your handwritten notes, you’d probably be a lot better off to just scan the notes into Evernote with a ScanSnap scanner. Simple and fast.

I also have a couple old logitech pens (with horribly limiting software). I’d love to be able to use them!

I was soooo excited when I got the e-mail from Evernote about this pen! I ordered my pen the same day. This is my missing link for going digital. I have to take notes at meetings. I don’t like to type them, but I need to be able to store and reference my notes digitally. The software works perfectly! Unfortunately I really need it to partner with my ipad (through evernote). This means I desperately need two things- 1. Files to transfer into Evernote in one chunk, not several, and 2. Handwriting to be searchable in Evernote. My hope is to take my notes at meetings, have them transfer to Evernote & reference them on my ipad, iphone, or computer. Only having livescribe desktop software is very limiting. The partnership with Evernote is only helpful if I can access my content in the same way. I’m hoping that updates are coming!
