MacJournal to Evernote — Batch Export AppleScript
Tags: Apple, Applescript, Evernote, Export, MacJournal, tutorial
Want to quickly export your MacJournal entries into Evernote? Read on!
Features
- This script exports a copy of all the entries in a selected MacJournal and saves them into Evernote.
- Automatic Growl detection has also been enabled which will save you a trip to the Script Editor to enable/disable it.
Current Limitations and Open Issues
(Otherwise known as “Places Where You Could Help Out!”)
- Although MacJournal uses tagging, it isn’t currently possible to read those tags via AppleScript. Therefore, you’ll need to tag your items once they’ve been imported into Evernote.
- Errors that will undoubtedly arise when you do something that I didn’t think of or test for!
How to Install and Use
Just run the script and select the Journal that you want to send to Evernote!

Thanks for this script (and all the others …)
what would be nice, also, is a script to do the contrary : export a notebook from Evernote to macjournal, if possible with tags, annotations, …
!!!
I agree!

Many many thanks for the Evernote to MacJournal AppleScript! On my MacBook Pro (OS X Snow Leopard) the script repeatedly failed when I tried to process around 500 notes all in one go. When I reduced the number of notes to 75, the script worked perfectly.
One other possible glitch in the script. I noticed that the script seems to fail when exporting 2 Evernotes from the same folder that have the same note name, but different content. Applescript processes both notes, but the content in each note when imported to MacJournal is identical.
Mark,
Thanks for your detailed report — It really helps to zero in on where the issues are and helps everyone here have a better, more reliable script.
I’m going to try to reproduce these issues here and, if I can, I’ll see what I can figure out to work around them. Any other AppleScripters who would like to do the same, please let us know what you find out here.
As a reminder, these comment threads accept code! If you ever want to share your own fixes or modifications to a script, just remember to put it between some code brackets!
