Protect yourself against that by using Evernote to keep your notes, and even write first drafts of a paper, so if lost, you have at least something to show for it.

Pocket notebook. So why is there nothing in the log until later? Well, I think is when I sat down at the machine in question, saw the warning dialogs, and actually took any action. Also possibly worthy of note: the issuer of the self-signed certificate is "Sagemcom", a name which also appears in a copyright notice on that ADSL modem login page. Anyway, after this the Evernote client or some other thing it depends on is plainly very confused because every subsequent attempt to sync fails. At this point, my internet connection is fine again and has been for hours; but somehow Evernote or whatever other thing it's using has become lastingly confused and there seems to be no way to say "no, you've got the wrong certificate, try the connection again from scratch".

On this occasion it turns out that exiting the Evernote client and running it again suffices to make the problem go away. Information in the activity log made it clear that in fact there were no local changes since the last successful sync. It would be very useful to have some way to tell, when there have been local changes since the last successful sync, what they are. To set your mind at rest first - you're not losing any data.

The Evernote for Windows app is installed on your computer and includes a copy of the central database including all your notes. Evernote will try again in due course. As to the reasons for the security issue - no real clue. Right click the header menu of you don't see a Sync column - there are various options to select. If you click the 'info' button on any single note " i " a drop-down will show you the sync status of that note.

It looks like you're right: if sync fails and I quit the Evernote client, I don't lose my local changes. I'm sure I remember getting an "Are you sure you want to quit without syncing? You will lose your changes" message on a previous occasion, but whether or not I'm imagining that it doesn't seem to happen now. That's a relief And thanks for the advice on ways to identify things that need syncing. As for the cause: if you have a look at my followup comment you will see that I have a conjecture about what happened. The underlying problem was indeed a local one -- but I think the Evernote client could have handled it a lot better.

Hope the rest of your week is excitement-free Recently, I've experienced exactly the same problem and, it appears to be, for exactly the same reason. To be able to recover and allow Evernote to sync without this problem, I needed to exit from the Evernote desktop client and reboot the computer. Also worth noting: - Evernote is the only application that has this problem including an application I've developed myself that syncs with OneNote.

Yesterday , my Evernote client Windows 10, 6. This happens every time it tries to sync. Why should I? Sync is still working for me, on two Win 10 desktops. Wondering why the certificate in question is a Comcast certificate You should contact Support if you're a paying customer or tweet them if not.. Tone Engel You can't make a sweeping statement like that on the basis of your own single experience! Sync still works perfectly for me on the same Evernote build on Windows Sounds like Comcast is doing something weird - you need to talk to your ISP.

We obviously don't sign using a comcast certificate. Problem disappeared after a reboot. Possibly originally caused by rebooting a router between Comcast and the computer without rebooting the computer. Only a guess though. Haven't seen this kind of a problem before and it was oddly specific - Only triggered by Evernote Sync function not Dropbox, Google Drive, iCloud, etc In my case, the offending certificate is at localhost.

For me, restarting Evernote is not a solution, as the problem always returns on startup. I got a little relief for a couple weeks from upgrading Evernote to the latest version, but then the cert error returned. I wish that Evernote would provide some more insight on the issue.
