Like I said before - it's always possible to 'add' something to a business card note by creating a new note and merging the two together (IME with Windows/ Android). This is a real workflow bummer when I'm trying to log contacts at a trade show. So it's not that certain fields aren't editable, they're just not editable in Evernote desktop. Conversely, edits are saved when I make them in the mobile Evernote app. Regardless, in desktop, I have the option to edit the business card note, it appears that I'm editing, but the edits are not saved. I'm using the business card scan feature inside Evernote. Yes, very similar to my workflow, except I'm not using Scannable. If that field is not working, try the 'merging notes' suggestion earlier. A little window on the note suggests that I can "Add Notes." but when I do, the text does not save, and is immediately lost.Īre you adding notes in the actual window where it says "Add Notes?" - The card isn't editable as such it just allows you to add text in one specific area. I cannot add any other content to the business card notes.The changes fail to "save" or to "sync" at all.I use the desktop version of Evernote on my Mac (OSX 10.9.5) to try to "clean up" the business cards that lack titles, company names (about 50% lack at least one of those 2 items).I upload the business card notes and accompanying photos to Evernote.that the image is correct and that a name has been associated with the card I use the app to briefly check that each card was correctly scanned, i.e.I take photos of 5-10 business cards using my iPhone 6 w/ latest update for Scannable.I am having the exact same problem, I think and I think the problem is new following the latest update of Evernote / Scannable. I'll try your suggestion of making a new note and merging. I can also edit the job title in the desktop app, but the change isn't saved. For example, I can edit/add a job title in the note on my phone and the change is saved.

I'm not trying to edit the format, just the content. Synching isn't the problem - the note syncs fine between mobile and desktop. I can edit the note/card scan on my phone, but I can't edit it in desktop. I'm using a phone with Evernote's card camera. Standard suggestion for 'uneditable' notes - don't add to the existing note, make a new one and merge the two, or link with tags or titles.

If you're not using one of those two features, I'm less sure what's happening - taking a normal camera picture of a note should just give you a text note plus a picture which should be fully editable. There's a small area for 'notes', but most of the content is not editable if you wish to maintain the layout. If you scan and save a business card using Scannable or a phone and Evernote's card camera, the format of the note is fixed.
