Evernote sync not working + unable to connect

IQ and Evernote are no longer syncing. I did change the password lately after having problems with a web login (appeared to be a Firefox/Evernote problem).
 
I open the Evernote connect dialogue and click "Sync now"
The Evernote login doalogue opens -- I add my email address and click "Continue"
The next window opens but is blank and remains blank.
 
I then tried the "Disconnect" button and attempted to reconnect with the same results.
 
When I close and reopen the dialogue "Disconnect" is offered again, so it look like IQ thingks we're still connected.
 
When I click "Check connection" I get the login page again.
 
Is there some Evernote related info in an ini file or somewhere else in IQ I can delete to allow me make a fresh start -- or do you think this is an Evernote problem?

I'm using Evernote basic/free and was wondering if this to do with the device limitation of free Evernote, but Evernote help says that
"third-party apps that use the Evernote API integration do not count toward the device limit"

You're the second user to report this.. 
 
  1. After searching a bit, can you try to clear the Evernote cookies in your main browser
  2. Another possible fix is deleting this key in the Registry: Computer\HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\Evernote\EvernoteSDK

  this worked!
 
For a good while after though, I thought sync wasn't working - it was, the grid just needed a refresh.
Thanks Pierre :up:

I tried both, I deleted all cookies form Chrome and I deleted the registry key and then I restarted the computer. When I do "Evernote Connect", I always get "Connection failed."

Please advise,

Hi Rand,

I haven't tried it recently, but I suspect that EN has pulled the plug on the old SDK/API. Our focus is now to provide sync with Obsidian as any work related to EN is probably not worth it. Sad, but it is the current situation.

HTH!

I'm trying "Evernote Connect..." for the 1st time, after click the "Connect to Evernote" button, I see the message "An Evernote dialog will be shown to authorize access...", after click "OK" I get an error "Connection failed".

While as I tried "Google Connect..." and it worked fine.

Anything I can do to fix this? or anywhere I can check the reason/error log etc.?

Thanks!
