I'm sorry but... with 8.9.2 / with 8.9 / with 8.7 on yosemite

the shortcut "enu" no longer launches the pages in the browser

 

I use it every day, every hour ... all the time

 

 

→ It works with the 8.0 on yosemite

What is the version of your Evernote app? Thanks.

PS: it still works with Evernote 5.5.1

I just "Downgrade" the workflow to version 8.0 and everything is working ok, except adding tags, so maybe you can fix something from your side so you don't need to wait for them

 

I have version 6.0.5 from their site, Alfred 2.6 (374) and Yosemite 10.10.1 Everything is working great. I hope this gives you and idea and you can fix it without depending on their updates.

 

Thank you

It seems Evernote 6.06 has fixed the search bug.

Thanks for the great workflow Carlos.

 

Feature Request:

Will you add file urls to files and mail messages so you can reference them rather than attaching them?

Thank you for your feedback. I’ll consider your idea.

@all:

It seems Evernote 6.06 has fixed the search bug. Anyway, note that, for now, it seems not possible to preview a note due the changes Evernote did regarding how it stores notes locally.

It is a revised version of the workflow coming? Or if Evernote never address this fixes you will never be able to upgrade? Thank you

I’m still waiting, since version 5.6, for fix.

It seems things like this are not important to them… Unfortunately.

Got it from their website, the files from a folder to a new note is one of this bugs?

Where can I get the 5.5 for Mac? Can I break something if I drowgrade? I mean, database not readable or something?

Thank you

Thank you

I uninstalled Evernote 5.6+ and reinstalled 5.5 from a site I found on Google.

Everything went find here but make sure to make a backup first!

Evernote app from Evernote.com is an old requirement due the MAS app limitations.

Evernote 5.6 or greater introduced some bugs that make the workflow almost useless. I've already reported them last year but they didn't reply.

So the only solution right now is to downgrade. That's what I had to do.

Hola Carlos, Quick question, for those who just discovered Alfred and Already have the Evernote MAS Version for Mac, is there any fix we can apply? Or do we need to downgrade to 5.5?

Thank you

Carlos,

 

Is an applescript-based solution required? Without reviewing your code, I'm guessing Applescript is necessary to send commands to the Evernote app to open notes and such.

 

I'm asking because there is an Evernote plugin for Sublime Text 3 that I use which finds notes from a specific notebook without any problems:

https://github.com/bordaigorl/sublime-evernote

 

The plugin is written in Python, and I believe it makes calls to the Evernote API instead of communicating directly with the desktop application. So, perhaps this comment isn't of any use at all to you, but I wanted to share it in case it would help. 

Thank you.

I am trying to get the enn feature to work but am not having any luck:

 

Evernote: 6.05

Plugin: 8.94

 

Is the plugin broken?

Make sure to download Evernote app from evernote.com

Unfortunately I’m still using Evernote 5.5+ due the bugs of Evernote 6 that made my workflow almost useless.

Would be nice to have this workflow in Packal for future updates.

Hi, 

 

Sorry if this has already been addressed but why can't I see any Word or Excel files in my Recent Items list? Is there a way to include these files?

 

Thanks!

Thanks for the great workflow!

Any chance for Path Finder support with the most recent folders feature?

Thank you all for the great feedback. I’m still on vacation. Next month I’ll probably start to update my workflows (I’m still upset regarding Evernote app terrible updates…).

@Carlos-Sz please add in the OP, it is a workflow for the Evernote DESKTOP APPLICATION not the web version. 

 

Add to browse through too many posts to only find it was for the application 

It is already there (all the requirements).

I'm having the same problem with MacVim installed via homebrew.

 

I did the 

brew linkapps

command, which places a symlink into /Applications, but with no good. Spotlight is able to find that alias.

 

Then I did the suggest above, putting both

 /usr/local/Cellar/macvim and

 /usr/local/Cellar/macvim/7.4-73

into the "Search Scope" (as well /Applications) but to no good.

 

For the record, I have restarted Alfred in those steps.

 

Any clues?

 

Using Alfred last version: 2.5.1 (308) and EdithWith workflow 3.1

Please check the workflow settings.plist in ~/Library/Application Support/Alfred 2/Workflow Data/com.sztoltz.editwith/

Can you see MacVim there?

Thanks.

 

I have created an applescript that creates a backup of all of your Evernote notes.  Maybe it is something your library might be interested in using.  It is based on the article Going Paperless: How and Why I've Automated Backups of My Evernote Data by Jamie Todd Rubin.  If you just run the script it backs up your desktop.  It takes an optional parameter of the location you would like to save the file.

...

Thank you. The main workflow problem is that find notes command returns notes from all notebooks even if a specific notebook is set. 

Quick update, this is going to be a little more clever now...

 

 

There will still be a custom fixed delay mode for if it suits your workflow better.

Very, very interesting feature.

It’s kind of sad that Evernote app 5.6+  kind of broke my workflow but I’ll make some tests to take advantage of the delay.

I can see that my rename workflow can be more responsive when managing lots of files because it creates an HTML preview every time the script runs and now I can control that in a better way.

Thank you. Great feature.

Just want to confirm that 4.1 works for me. Had same problem with not finding plist file with 4.0.

As by now the linked file on first post is not 4.1. Maybe you could update the link?

 

Thank you very much for that great workflow and the cool upgrades.

+1.

 

Was in the same situation as emai. Had to scroll all the pages of this thread + install the workflow a second time because the link in the first post was not updated.

 

Gave me the opportunity to rediscover how this workflow is FANTASTIC 

Done! Thanks.

 

The workflow was not working (OS X Yosemite).

 

I reinstalled the 1.11 version. 

 

Got the same error : 

Starting debug for 'Screenshots 1.11'

[ERROR: alfred.workflow.input.scriptfilter] Code 1: 0:86: execution error: System Events got an error: Can’t get «class plif» "/Users/User/Library/Application Support/Alfred 2/Workflow Data/com.sztoltz.screenshots/settings.plist" of application "System Events". (-1728)

Same error for me on Yosemite 10.10.1

The workflow needs an update to work on Yosemite.

However, you can copy a settings.plist in the reported folder and the workflow should work.

Here’s one if you need: download

@Carlos-Sz  

 

I sync my Alfred Preferences in a Dropbox folder. Almost every time I use the workflow (at least 10 times a day) I have a notification that says list_sizeup.scpt has been updated.

Less often, I have the same kind of notification with run_sizeup.scpt. 

I couldn’t reproduce the issue, although the workflow needs an update.

Please, try to delete and reinstall the workflow.

Hey there, Carlos,

 

This is exactly what I'm trying to do with the workflow, but nothing actually gets appended to the existing note. I go through all the steps Claudio lists, but when I hit Enter, nothing gets added to the existing note. Any ideas?

 

Thanks so much!

I’m on vacation.

After Evernote app 5.6 I’m kind of holding for a fix (AppleScript find notes command fix at least) to update the workflow.

I had to downgrade my Evernote app in order to properly use it. It’s sad.

Hello. I'm quite new to Alfred's Powerpack and have been experiencing a problem with this workflow.

 

Sometimes, when I try to create a new note with the keyword 'enn', Alfred doesn't recognize it as a keyword, and takes me to Google Search instead. It's strange because if I type 'en' the first suggestion on the list is 'enn' for a new note. If I press enter or complete the keyword with the last 'n', it completely ignores the keyword and all the Evernote suggestions are gone.

 

This only happens sometimes, after rebooting. I then open Evernote and even though I'm still not able to use the new note workflow, a few minutes later it starts working. Is there any step I should perform after reboot so I can use the 'enn' keyword? I'm assuming Evernote must be running (which doesn't solve the problem immediately), but 'ens', f.e, launches the app, so I guess that shouldn't be a problem for 'enn'.  Every other action works fine. 

 

Thanks.

 

EDIT: Nevermind. I've searched through the thread and was able to get it running with 8.94. Maybe it should be available in the first post, to avoid posts like mine.

Evernote app 5.6+ was a very sad update for the workflow. It froze the workflow development and the fix seems far away.

I’m feeling that I lost my time doing the workflow knowing the Evernote app developer, even after some months, didn’t fix what was a very basic AppleScript command.

The same goes for the enu command and the action for opening the note url by pressing function key? Both features no longer work for me.

After Evernote app 5.6 I’m kind of holding for a fix (AppleScript find notes command fix at least) to update the workflow.

I had to downgrade my Evernote app in order to properly use it. It’s sad.

If you can and you need the command please consider downgrade your Evernote app.

Hi Carlos, I’d like to change the format of the timestamp in the append note function, but I know that editing en_append.scpt will mess up the workflow entirely. How can I make this happen? For what it’s worth, I don’t want the timestamp to put the entire date, just the time in HH:MM format.

I'm on vacation. ASAP I'll see what I can do about it.

Hello Carlos,

 

Thank you for this amazing workflow! I wonder though if it is possible to add new notes with your workflow using Evernote Helper which uses significantly less RAM without launching the main app?

 

What do you think, is it even possible?

 

Thank you in advance,

Evernote has only one AppleScript dictionary and it seems it is only linked to the app itself.

Hi guys,

 

Here's a scenario: I have a note titled "jot" in Evernote. I'd like a quick way to append quick text to it. Like, I think of something, I bring up alfred, type "jn" (jot note), or something like that, followed by the text, and it gets appended to my note. 

 

Is there a way to set that up?

 

Right now I'm doing the following:

 

1. Launch Alfred

2. Type ent jot

3. Down Arrow to the note

4. Press and hold Cmd

5. Hit Enter

6. Down Arrow to "Type a text to append"

7. Type my text

8. Hit enter

 

If I could remove any steps from that list, that'd be freakin' awesome!  

 

Thanks in Advance,

 

Claudio

I’ll surely consider such feature. Thank you for your feedback.

Anyway, you can use the type a note hotkey and then:

1. hit the hotkey

2. type the text

3. hold Cmd key

4. select the note to append

5. hit enter

Hello Carlos,

 

Awesome workflow, using it daily Is there option to list latest updated notes? You can search them, but I would like to list them also Thanks in advance!

The keyword enrec should do this.

Hey Carlos!

 

I decided to be a little less helpless and searched in this thread and found my answer. the answer is to use "/n" to separate title and lines! HUZZAH!

 

This workflow is so awesome but really deep. Are there any youtube videos showing this workflow in action etc?

I couldn’t answer sooner but I’m glad you have found the solution.

Unfortunately there is no video but that’s a good idea.

Thank you for your feedback!

I seem to be experiencing an issue where I cannot use the 'open URL' action with this workflow anymore. I'm not too sure why, but it just doesn't do anything when I try the action. Seems like the 'en_open.scpt' could be the issue?

Different workflows which could open in the browser seem to work though, which makes me believe it is something to do with Evernote or the workflow itself.

Evernote: 5.7.2

Workflow 8.9.2

Unfortunately Evernote 5.6+ has too many issues with AppleScript.

I had to downgrade to Evernote 5.5.x.

I’m waiting for a more stable Evernote version. 

 

I'm seeing some odd issues appending to notes using 8.9.3 with Evernote 5.7.0 on Yosemite.  

 

I can add new notes all day long without issue but if I try to append to an existing note I get various errors based on the details

 

If I highlight some text in an email for instance and attempt to append text selection I get the following error:

 

[ERROR: alfred.workflow.action.script] Code 1: 0:194: execution error: Evernote got an error: Operation would exceed monthly upload allowance. (1)
[INFO: alfred.workflow.action.script] Processing output 'alfred.workflow.output.notification' with arg ''

My current monthly usage in Evernote is 72MB out of 4GB. 

 

If I immediately repeat the same operation but create a new note instead of append it works fine.  

 

If I try to append the whole message I get an Error: cannot append message notification.  The log shows:

 

[INFO: alfred.workflow.input.scriptfilter] Processing output 'alfred.workflow.action.script' with arg '/Users/kms/Library/Application Support/Evernote/accounts/Evernote/baryonyx/content/p2116/content.html'
[INFO: alfred.workflow.action.script] Processing output 'alfred.workflow.output.notification' with arg 'Error. Can't append message.

Again, I can create a new note from the message no problem. 

 

If any additional information would be useful, please let me know.  

 

 

 

Unfortunately I had to downgrade Evernote 5.6+ to 5.5.1.

Today there is a new version of Evernote but I’m not sure what is fixed.

Note that most of the issues are due Evernote app bugs.

Anyway, I’ll eventually update Evernote but not for now.

Hi Carlos

 

When type "etemp" the search google, search amazon and search wikipedia turns up but when typing just "etem" it works.

Sorry. It is etem indeed.

ennt was replaced by etemp

Can You try it please?

Hi Carlos,

FYI.

8.93 when type "enn" the search google, search amazon and search wikipedia turns up.

reinstall to 8.7 "enn" works

8.94 "enn" works, "ennt" the search google, search amazon and search wikipedia turns up.

Hi Carlos,

 

Tried 8.93 but the enn keyword is broken. Probably by Evernote, I use the newest version. Debugging resulted in error message below:

 

[ERROR: alfred.workflow.input.scriptfilter] Code 1: 0:90: execution error: Can’t get item 1 of {}. (-1728)

 

If you have a link to the latest stable Evernote version I can revert back to would be great. Couldn't find it on the Evernote site.

 

Fokke

 

[update] Sometimes enn seems to work and sometimes not. Workaround is not typing 'enn' but type 'en' and wait till Alfred will suggest enn as the first option, hit enter and then the flow works.

I could not reproduce the issue, at least not yet.

I have downloaded a previous version of Evernote from Uptodown (I could not find anything wrong with the file but since it is not from the official site…).

[update] here is a new version that removes some manual menu sorting to let Alfred handle it again (Alfred Preferences>Advanced>Top Result Latching) along with some error handling: download
