#EVERNOTE ONLINE INSTALL#

If you do not have a good text editor capable of handling large files (I assume some of your notebooks may produce large export files) get one and install it - there are several excellent freeware and/or opensource offerings (I happened to have become accustomed to Visual Studio Code).This may be a pain - especially if you have a large number of notebooks. Do NOT export the entire database in one pass. Before you install and run the OneNote importer, export your Evernote database to ENEX files.I just finished porting over 31,000 notes and, at my last count, I have 41 notes that I have to manually fix. So here is a simple recipe to insure that conversion problems are kept at the very minimum. It turns out I was too fast in blaming the Microsoft product for the poor import.

Then, because I am a (rather aging ) software developer by trade, I figured I should try and understand the problem (or problems).

To the point where you may be tempted to give up, or where manual intervention is simply unfeasible. But if you happen to have an EvernoteВ database with several thousand notesвЂ¦ or few tens of thousand notesвЂ¦ the percentage of import errors increases exponentially. If you have a relatively small number of notebooks and notes it is not particularly onerous to manually adjust (copy & paste) even a couple of dozen notes. In any case, a glitch here and there is probably to be expected. Oh, and keep in mind that I am not overly concerned with a bit of formatting issues. On the other hand, many users (including yours truly) have encountered a number of problems: notes without a title or (oh the horror) notes without actual body. Myself, after careful consideration, I decided to move to OneNote.ДЄnd moving from Evernote to OneNote should be straightforward enough - after all, Microsoft offers a tool (OneNote Importer) just for this purpose. That is such a personal decision, and I am sure everyone has personally valid motives. I am not here to discuss why or why not one should move from Evernote to another application or service.
