Change Log:
- 1.10 (October 13, 2009) **EXPORT URL LIST, BUG FIXES, UPDATED TAGGING, REMOVED EXTRA CONFIRMATIONS

AppleScript ninjas — dive in to the code and, if you have any suggestions, leave them in the comment thread below.
And remember:
- These scripts are being provided for the benefit of the Mac community. While they work wonderfully for me, I cannot take responsibility for any data you might lose (or if your laptop turns into a pumpkin or something…);
- “Community” means “participation”. Please share with us *how* you use these scripts in your workflow, how you think they could be improved, and feel free to help your fellow ninjas if they don’t understand something!

Justin,
You beat me to it! And very glad you did – Evernote badly needed some extensibility. Also, I love the Growl detection – I may have to add that to my DEVONthink script.
All the best,
Dan
Thanks Dan!
Play around with it for a bit and let me know what you think — your input would be especially appreciated.
And be sure to try the FastScripts shortcuts…makes things a little more fast and, dare I say it, fun!
Thanks .Really awesome .God bless ya
I keep getting an error Evernote got an error: Operation would exceed monthly upload allowance. But I signed up for premium, and evernote web and evernote mac desktop know now that I am premium and am nowhere near upload limit. Your script is a lifesaver, if I can only get it to work around this problem. Any ideas where to look?
Thanks,
Rob
Hi Rob,
Glad you’re enjoying the script!
Let’s try to eliminate a few things so we can find out what’s going on:
1.) Be sure to empty the trash in Evernote; I believe that it also counts against the monthly quota, so let’s eliminate it as a cause of the message.
2.) Try moving the NNW items into a Local (not Synchronized) notebook with the script and then moving the items into a synchronized folder. Does doing it this way also give you an error message?
Let me know what happens after you’ve tried these two things and we’ll take it from there.
Oops, I’m in the same boat: premium acct and same error msg. Emptying Evernote’s trash and moving NNW items into a Local notebook didn’t make any difference.
I’m using Evernote 1.4.9 and NNW 3.2
Any help would be appreciated.
And thanks for all your Evernote applescript work! You’re helping a ton of people, I’m sure.
Hi David,
I am just finishing up some revisions to the DEVONthink/Evernote scripts, but I will tackle this next!
Check back later this week for updates and, in the interim, let me know if you discover any other “common denominator” associated with this error.
Hi Justin,
I just tried the script two more times and had partial success. Both attempts got about half way through my 125 flagged items before getting “Error number: -1712 Message: Evernote got an error: AppleEvent timed out.”
I don’t have good ideas on why I didn’t get the “exceed allowance” error I had earlier. Hard to tell since I changed a number of things including quitting many open applications. I also disconnected from the internet for one attempt (and ended up with no images in the newly created notes).
Your “single” script has worked fine throughout, so I may end up using that instead of the “batch” one. Nice to have a fallback.
BTW, I may contact you later to ask about a script to change the creation year on a notebook’s worth of notes (long story).
Thanks again for all your efforts!
I am definitely going to spend some time on this script this week — it’s been a year since I posted it and I have learned a few things about AppleScript since then. 😀
Also, thanks for your detective work… I think I *may* have identified the cause, but will test over the next few days to be sure.
If and when you (or anyone else) would like to talk about commissioning a custom script, just use the Contact page!
thanks Justin,
I tried, still stuck. An email when/if you have a new script would be mighty kind–thanks for looking at this.
Rob [email protected]
Great script! Make my life so much easier.
The only thing i need to NNW to sync with Starred items or get a script to export my InstaPaper stuff to Evernote!
Ether way would make memory clippings easier on the iphone!
Joe,
From the NNW Website:
“Flagged items should now be in sync with starred items (both directions). One limitation, however — in NetNewsWire it only shows flagged items if the item appears in a feed you’re subscribed to.”
Tried it out with my iPhone — works fine!
Great script! I’ve been trying to use it with my starred items in Google Reader to get them into evernote. It worked well for a little bit, but it seems that it’s taking google a while to update my starred items public feed so I guess I’ll have to do a little bit each day.
Hi, awesome script! I would like to tell the script to only pull in text (no images). Any thoughts on how to achieve this in the script? Would be super helpful. Thanks!
This is great, thanks, especially when you change ‘unread’ to ‘read’. Then you can just scroll down NNW, click on the headlines and send all the ones you’ve read to Evernote. A very powerful script. Thanks.
Thank you so much for this. For ages it seems, I’ve been looking for a way to move from WordPress to Evernote. Now, if only I could transfer categories, tags and dates from WordPress to Evernote.
