Backing Up and Sharing Your Evernote Notebooks

EdTech

As I shared in this article, 3 Steps to Walkthrough Checklists in Evernote, you can easily export notebooks from Evernote. In this case, “export” means save your entire notebook as a single file that you can save elsewhere or share with other people.

  • Export = Save a notebook as an “ENEX” file.
  • Import = Load an ENEX file into your Evernote.

To accomplish this, you will need to use either Evernote for Mac or Windows; unfortunately, Evernote Web does not yet provide this functionality.

This tutorial addresses Exporting and Importing of ENEX files and will explore the steps below.

ENEX FILE EXPORT

To export a file, you will want to do the following…

  1. Right-click on the selected Notebook and choose Export Notes from “EvernoteForms”

  1. Rename the file to be exported to whatever you want, in this case, EvernoteForms:

Click SAVE to save the file. You will then see something like this:

You can now email or back up that ENEX file to a USB drive for transport. If it contains confidential information, make sure to encrypt the file by using 7zip format with AES-256 encryption.

ENEX FILE IMPORT

To import an ENEX file, for example, one that you found on the Internet, follow these steps:

  1. Save the ENEX File to your computer where you can find it (e.g. Desktop)
    (This file is hosted at Dropbox: here’s a link to a folder where this ENEX file can be accessed).

  2. Go to FILE: IMPORT NOTES

Then, choose the ENEX file:

And click on OPEN. You will see the following:

Say “YES” to the question. This will import the notebook to the Evernote Web version and make it available everywhere you access Evernote.

This is what success looks like:

That’s all there is to exporting and importing ENEX files!
