Line breaks disappear when editing note on iPhone

This is getting really frustrating.

I create a note on Mac Desktop version of Evernote. Purely text. No formatting. All text entered in Evernote rather than copy/pasted from another app.

I open the note for editing on iPhone and BAM. Every single line break disappears. Err thanks!

I'm puzzled why something as basic as line breaks is still buggy?

Quality control on ads

Please start doing quality control on ads. That suit company ad was bad enough but some guy talking in an echoey room for the Conservatives doesn't cut it and damages your brand. On the other hand really bad quality annoying ads are a way to drive your Premium sales...

Licence Spotify to hardware manufacturers

Open Spotify up to hardware manufacturers so there could be radio-style devices with a simple interface on the front to select playlists. Add iPhone support for more complex control of the device over Wifi.

Sync photos through iTunes not iPhoto

Please make photos sync through iTunes rather than iPhoto. It's very confusing having iPhoto launch when the iPhone is connected and the photo import process is clunky compared to how slick iTunes is

I'm talking about the exact same version of a song. I'm not sure why you'd ever want the same song multiple times in a playlist. iTunes warns you if you try to do this.

Same track can be added more than once to a playlist

When you add a track to a playlist, there's no checking that the track hasn't already been added to that playlist.

I don't know about Windows but Mac users are used to there being no button and having to press return to do a search. A "Go" button outside the search field might be another option.

Weird arrow button inside search field

The white triangle button inside the right side of the search field (Mac OS X) is an odd choice. At first glance you'd think it was a play button but it isn't. Instead clicking it shows the list of search results.



Might be more intuitive as a downwards facing arrow

Yes it's the official Universal Dock made by Apple. I'm wondering if it's a power issue. I have it connected to a (powered) USB hub but maybe if the voltage is slightly low, the iPhone detects something is wrong and puts up the message.

Like I say it's intermittent. Didn't happen at all yesterday nor today so far.

Universal dock not designed for iPhone??!

I just bought a universal dock yesterday. The first time I plugged the iPhone in, I got a "This accessory is not designed for iPhone, would you like to switch to Airplane mode?" message Happened again today.

Why would it say that?

Skitch rocks

Every time I use Skitch, I just smile. It is a genius idea and so beautifully executed.

iTunes podcast stops updating

I listen to a lot of podcasts and get this problem happening quite frequently. The ! symbol will show on the left of a subscribed podcast and when I click it, I get this message


But I HAVE listened to an episode of that podcast recently (like every week), so this is very confusing.

Yes just had this happen today. Very frustrating. Ended up logging in on another tab and then copy/pasting info across.

Entering URLs in Hyperlink Options window could be improved

The URL field is too small so it's very frustrating to enter and edit anything but the shortest URLs. There's a lot of wasted space on the window which could be used for making it larger. This is in CS3, maybe it's been improved already in CS4?
