As the Evernote premium users, I want to fix notebooks gone problem after upgrade, so that I can keep going use the Evernote v10.7.6 on macOS.

Some notebooks have gone after I upgraded the Evernote v10.6.9 to v10.7.6, I fixed this problem by clean reinstall the Evernote on macOS v10.11.6, v11.1, and v11.2.

My notebooks were gone on Evernote v10.7.6.

We can see more detail via “About Evernote” on the menu.
* 10.7.6-mac-ddl-public (2321)
* Editor: v117.1.15008
* Service: v1.27.2
* © 2019–2021 Evernote Corporation. All rights reserved

I upgrade to 10.7.6 on 2021/02/05.

Open the AppCleaner to remove the Evernote.

AppCleaner is a small application the allows you to thoroughly uninstall unwanted apps.

Search and select Evernote.

Please input the “Evernote”, and click the <Enter>.

Click the checkbox of each items of Evernote.

Some filename maybe is different, but it’s ok.

Reinstall the Evernote from App Store.

Click this button to set up the Evernote.

Log in to your Evernote account.

If using the Google account to login, it will verify on the browser.

Each notebook is back now!

My notebooks are back on Evernote v10.7.6.

Enjoy it!

By the way, maybe the Evernote from v10.6.9 to v10.7.6 has some metadata format change or data migrate bug. So we can fix this problem after clean reinstall.
