This is a problem I’ve only ever had on Windows 7 but I gather it can affect you on XP too.
If Evernote says
Synchronization failed, could not connect to Evernote server
and you aren’t sure why because everything else seems to work on the internet, go to Tools menu, Options, then the General tab and then click on “Log folder”.
If in recent logs you can see
Windows Internet subsystem is in offline mode
chances are that Internet Explorer is in offline mode. Fire up Internet Explorer, verify that it is browsing the web again, and you should find that Evernote is working again too and will connect to the servers and update.
Thanks, it worked.
Good! 🙂
OMG! What a fix!
Thanks. matey! It worked like a charm!
Thanks for the fix, all is well now!
Thanks a lot for your information, I am able to solve the problem in my system
Thank you very much! Worked perfectly.
Alternatively, restarting computer also works, though I like yours better.
Cheers 🙂
Haha, the old “turn it off and on again” 🙂
I should have tried that first, eh?
thanks man.. worked like a charm
thank youu. i solve why my evernote can’t synchronize and why my YM can’t connect. it’s worked!!
worked dude, thanks a lot
Finally it worked!
sweet and simple…you are da man Tom 😉
Thanks Tom. My IE wasn’t in offline mode, but for some reason the connection settings had been changed. I fixed those, got IE working again, and then evernote synced fine.
Thank you! 🙂
No problem! Sounds like you fixed it yourself though, not me 🙂
Thank you so much. It does work.
