Samsung and SNOTE problems

[Inyourendo]

Anyone know how to transfer successfully all old snotes from old tablet to new tablet ....I did the transfer thing via their app and all transfered....but cannot open every file now, some do, but about 80% don't. ....just shuts down .....I also saved them on memory card and tried that...same deal.

It's a Galaxy Tab A

Do your SNotes successfully sync to the GDrive associated with your Google account?

[Inyourendo]

I have no idea what you just said....but appreciate the input

Look in the SNotes app for Sync options. You can sync them (i.e. copy them!) to Google Drive.

Then on the other phone, you can import from Google Drive.

They changed the format, a while back, but the import will do any necessary conversion.

Not work........uploaded to drive and tried to download to new tablet....still will not open.

They are all in the list within snotes. ....but when try to open, it just says snotes has stopped and closes.

Tried few different way....copy etc...but nawt

Not that I use it, but does S-Notes have an Export function?

Maybe it can save to a different format so that you can import them?

It does....and can save as pdf.....but that defeats the purpose of snotes as I use it a lot for note taking ..... cannot then convert from pdf to snotes .....or I guess could copy text from pdf and paste in snotes .....problem is there is over 100 notes, so kinda looking for easy option first

[Chicog]

PDF is the only option?

What are they, just lumps of text?

[Chicog]

It seems that JPG is also an option, so it depends whether or not you want to edit them.

Also this mentions using Kies....

Both text and s pen hand written notes...

I tried jpeg......that was useless

Also as html text.....did not work

You cannot turn them into s notes to carry on with and edit etc

[Inyourendo]

I used smart switch to originally transfer everything from old tablet to new one......I'll give that Essential widget thing a look.

Are you sure SNote on the old device is compatible with SNote on new? I gave up with the SNote app a few years back when the newer version wouldn't open older notes. Switched to Evernote.

[Inyourendo]

No idea if compatible or not...looks not....thanks I'll check evernote

[Inyourendo]

Well that's right weird ........just started working today and opened all the old notes .......only thing I did was download evernote and an snotes reader, but deleted the reader when I tried to use it after and same issue .....
