*Important Note: As yet, there is no direct download for Evernote 5.0.
However, you can download version 3.3 here, install Evernote and then go to
Preferences, select the Software Update tab and check the box "Update to beta
versions when available". Evernote will then automatically update to version
5.0. This update procedure DOES NOT work if you downloaded Evernote from the
Mac App Store.* *Evernote* is one of the most popular free productivity apps
for Mac and the long awaited release of version 5 introduces a 100 new
features for users to enjoy. Evernote for Mac is a handy clipboard
application which enables you to save, read and organize content for reading
later. It can handle almost anything you throw at it including simple text,
to photos taken on your iPhone. It's also a cross-platform app so great for
those that work regularly between Windows and Macs. To use Evernote for Mac,
you do need to sign up for an account which is free, although the amount of
storage space you get with it is limited until you upgrade. If you see
something you'd like to keep or read later, simple select it and then go to
the Evernote for Mac icon in your toolbar and select *Paste to Evernote*. You
can also upload and attach web pages, audio, video and other files to help
jog your memory when your scanning through your notes. If you want to sync
Evernote with your iPhone, iPod, iPad, Android or Blackberry, you can.
Evernote also has an in-app notebook which enables you to share your
notebooks and view notebooks that other have shared with you without ever
leaving Evernote. This includes a feature called Notebook Stacks which allows
you to organize your notebooks by visually grouping them into stacks. The
only thing that's missing is someway to export data. The other slightly
worrying concern is that Evernote reserves the right to reproduce or use
anything you upload to it and so if you're using it for secure information,
you should be careful. Note that this is the Beta version of the new Evernote
and may be subject to instability. You can download the stable 3.3 version of
Evernote for Mac here (there is no version 4.0 of Evernote for Mac).
