I have been testing the sync feature to google docs/drive of all my notes. What I noticed is after I sync the first time I try adding another word to note and sync again, it deletes what I just wrote. Please advise if you guys are experiencing this issue or advise if Im doing it wrong.
Here is what I do:
1. Create note and write something
2. Save note
3. Go back to S-Note screen where all notes are and select Sync
4. Choose the new note and click sync
So far so good. I see it in Google drive.
5. Open note back up and write a word or something
6. Repeated steps 3-4
This time, my new change has been deleted and now shows what I initially committed. ??
Hey guys, quick update. Guess Sync only works one way on S-Note which is why I had issue.
I ended up creating a dropbox account and download app called dropsync. Dropsync allows me to do 2 way sync and does so automatically. Now when I add notes, create new ones, or delete one, dropsync will ensure to sync with drop box.
Pretty legit I must say.
I use an app called Folder SYnc and it will do two way sync. Use with several Cloud accounts. There is a free version and it is a great app.
What file format are you saving them in? Just curius if you are using thr .snb format and if you are able to view those files on a pc.

Same question here, I am asking me if it is possible to edit .snb file on Google Doc or with a Windows app. Otherwise, the sync is only a backup solution, but no more...
Im syncing them as .snb so you can just consider it a backup. At the moment, I dont think there is a PC application that will allow you to modify the files. Im hoping Samsung will make their kies software have access to open .snb files from PC.

I tried the same and it works
However I noticed one issue,
If I edit a note that has been createdin the other device the whole thing goes wrong
the page and everything is still there but I loose the part of the note created in the original device.
so it looks like viewing is fine but you can not edit the same note across different devices

This is the BEST solution. Works very well. The syncing which comes with S-Notes should be avoided at all costs. Evernote and Google Docs are very incomplete and difficult to use. Dropbox rules.
A similar solution for your PC.
The only problem in using Dropbox with your PC is that the files you want synced must be in your Dropbox folder.
Well, actually no. You can create "symbolic links" from any folder on your PC to your Dropbox Folder so that Dropbox will sync them. This can be VERY convenient if you have large document or database files you wish to keep synced but don't wish the originals to live in your Dropbox Folder.
This is VERY easy to achieve with something called "Link Shell Extension" found here:
http://schinagl.priv.at/nt/hardlinkshellext/hardlinkshellext.html#contact
Just follow the directions. It talks about doing "hard links" but I have found doing "symbolic links" works just fine. Once installed, you simply right click the folder you wish to link to drop box and select it as your link folder. Then you right click your Dropbox Folder and select that as the destination. Then if you open your Dropbox Folder it will appear that the folder you have just linked is there, but it's not, it is in its original location but now Dropbox will sync it.
Cool, right?
P.S., make sure you get your free 50 GB of space from Dropbox first

Do not be so critical, for a simple backup, it is far easier to use the sync included in S-Notes than the Dropbox solution...
IF we could use the .snb with a software on a PC, perhaps it could be interesting to use Dropbox, but really, without any possibility to edit, don't complicate your life, use simply the backup solution included in S-Notes :angel:

With all due respect you are wrong.
The built in syncing does not properly account for upstream and downstream updating.
For instance, if you use the built in sync feature you can literally never delete any notes locally as the sync action will simply restore the ones you have deleted. Try deleting a note that has been previosly synced using the stock feature then run a sync again. I reappears.
Drop Sync works properly. If you have deleted a file locally it will not replace that file when you do your sync and the deleted file will be removed from your Dropbox account as well.
As such your Dropbox becomes a mirror image of your device. This is how syncing as opposed to just backing up is supposed to work. You can also control this behavior even further in options if you like. In addition you can command Drop Sync to sync automatically in the background at regular intervals.

No Solution: Syncing / Editing and then Syncing S-Note to Google Drive?
Well, I described my issue here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2203479
Background: My company is a Google Apps for Business enterprise user and I need handrwritten to text notes for a lot of meetings. The ideal solution is using Google Keep, or S-Notes with S-Pen and then sync to Google Drive.
Situation: 1) When I use Google Keep everything works fine until I open the document in the Drive and it is a Polaris, or Kings Office file format, not Google Docs - and not editable; 2) When I use S-Note, everything works until I open, edit and try to re-save the file within Google Drive. I get an error message: "failed to save document" and then I get "Saved /data/data/com.google.android.apps.docs/cache2/......"
The Solution: I can write directly into a Googls Doc using the S-Pen but prefer using Google Keep, or S-Notes.
From reading this thread it appears no one is successfully using Google Keep with S-Pen, or S-Note to save / sync documents to Google Drive; edit those documents; and then re-save, or re-sync to Google Drive?
Thank you!
It does appear that NoteSync is the best approach to have notes SYNC with Google Drive

Out of all the services I like SugarSync the best. I can sync my S-Note folder and it will automatically sync new notes and keep them up to date if I make revisons so it is a set and forget back up solution. If you want to try it use the referral link below and we can both get an extra 500mb.

Where is the "local folder" for snote?
to sync s-note
I have tried and tried many apps and methods to sync s-note across devices. ONLY THING i have found to work.
I use a app called DS Cloud for my Synology server.
I Created a folder on the server called snote
I created a folder in my snote directory on my note 10.1 and note 2 phone.
Reason for this is IS if you sync from the default location you will sync templets There are different template Version of S- NOTE ON Each device.
So once i did the above i Told ds cloud on the desk station to share that folder .
on each device i have to sync the folder i called my notes inside the s- note folder. That way is does NOT Sync the templets and app information.
To get them to google drive. From my Disk station i sync the snote foilder with my google drive account.. This is just for a Just incase my home internet is down.
The issue your having with notes being over written between devices i think is because different s note versions..
Hope this help anyone. its only way i can get it to work properly for me.
OHH I LOVE Synology disk station.

Just attempted to sync my S-Notes with Evernote. It says they have synced correctly.
However, when I open the Evernote app nothing is showing up and there is a message at the bottom left stating that syncing has failed. I tried adding a folder directly to Evernote from within the app and it crashed.
Any ideas?
Hmmm, ok well the syncing is showing up on my laptop version of Evernote but not my tablet version. odd.
Also, apparently it is syncing them as .snb files which Evernote apparently cannot display. What am doing wrong here? Why is it exporting my S-Notes to Evernote in an unreadable format?

I would consider dropping OneNote and moving to Evernote if you could get me the anser to that. I tried the same thing, but it does me no good to have my notes synced to Evernote if I cannot open them on my PC and see them on my evernote app on the tablet.

From what I have been reading online S-Notes created using the Note appear perfectly within Evernote. I am assuming those notes have the same file format and extension. Weird wonder what the issue is.
I can't seem to find a thing online discussing the SGN10 and Evernote.
** Same thing with Google Docs. It doesn't recognize the file extension and can't display the content.
I am trying to figure out why Samsung wants us to sync our notes to two services which cannot read the format?????

No one else is having Evernote issues? As far as I can tell Evernote doesn't recognize the snb file extension and won't display s notes content. This is very odd since s note recommends syncing with something that has no idea what it is.
I've seen videos of people syncing their Note with Evernote and it works fine.

Unfortunately not possible. You can store them in Evernote and use that to sync with other devices which support .snb but you cannot view them. Have no idea why Samsung chose the very obscure .snb standard for Snotes. This makes Dropbox a better solution because youc an sync using DropSync for the Market.
My guess is that Samsung is forching us to own other Samsung devices which can read their very specialized .snb files.

Bummer. Are there any S-pen enabled note applications that can sync to Evernote (or via Dropsync) and open on the PC? I know I can always export them, but would prefer a solution that can regularly update notes as I write them for easy reference rather than exporting each time I make changes/additions.
I would also like that solution.

Sync: Had that for a day, too, on both the Talley and phone, looks like something was broken somewhere. Works again now.
snb: these are basically zip files with JPEG pictures for each page and some additional info in xml files. Rename to .zip and open as usual. Of course, this doesn't give you notebooks, but the info is there, and you could even make pdfs of them.

Lol. True. Wasn't thought as a work solution, but a disaster recovery, e.g. in case of a lost phone/tablet. You can then still get at your notes, until you have snote available again, without having to export each note after each change...

I guess that's the same case for Asus and their supernote. It's also in snb format and I tried copying the file into my Note10.1. It apparently is encrypted or something. Requires a password

Hi everyone,
I'm interested in exporting my notes from S Note to my Dropbox. However, when I go to Sync my notes, the only options are Google Drive and Evernote. Is there a way to export your notes to Dropbox?
On the other end, I've read a lot of posts about importing PDFs and other documents into S Note for editing. However, I have the same problem where if I click a PDF in Dropbox, the only options to open it are Polaris and Amazon Kindle. Is there a way to open these in S Note?
Thanks!
Matt
Yes. Get Drop Sync from the market. The free version will allow you to sync 1 folder, in this case Snotes. The paid version allows unlimited syncing.
As far as opening .PDF file in Snotes you have to import them into Snotes in the opening screen. You cannot import a .PDF into an open Snote.

Correct. For some odd reason Samsung chose .snb format which is quite obscure for their Snotes app. Not only that but it seems to be a special version of .snb that even .snb readers like Calibre cannot read.
You can however save them as .PDF files and read them that way.

Careful though. The sync which comes with Snotes doesn't work properly. It doesn't give priority to your local device. If you delete a file locally it will just replace it when you sync. Can be quite annoying as you can't delete anything. Drop Sync does this properly.

S note on windows 8?
I just saw that there is a S note app for windows 8. (check the store, I can't post links)
I haven't tried it yet (this laptop is still on 7) but maybe this is the answer for our problem?
It would be the killer app for me if it exists... that is the app that has all three components here:
1) Handwritten notes w/ notebooks and/or page tagging
2) Support for S-Pen and ability to use an S-Pen only input mode.
3) Sync to PC (or use dropbox/Evernote to sync) and be able to view notes on the PC. I want to not have to export my notes but just keep notebooks in sync so that when I'm done writing on the tablet the notes on the PC are updated and get updated everytime I make changes instead of having to export to PDF or another format.
I'm not sure if any of you have used Livescribe paper/pens/software but if they could reproduce that kind of functionality with OTA syncing that would be incredible! Still occasionally use my Livescribe pen but would rather than be fully using my Note 10.1 for everything.
Anyone know of something that does it all? I've used Quill, LectureNotes, S-Notes and others but still haven't found something that can do all three. Any ideas or suggestions?

So you can make edits in Quill, they are automatically updated to Evernote and you can view those files on your PC?
I see an export option in Quill but not a sync option but maybe I'm missing something.
When you find the trifecta, please let me know. My current system is using LectureNotes and syncing to Dropbox. I am also manually exporting to pdf and saving in OneNote to keep it up to date in case MS blows everything away with a fully functional android app.
Sent from my GT-N8013 using XDA Premium HD app
So I've been using LectureNotes which works in the following instance.
1) Install a sync program, I use Dropsync, to sync local folders on a schedule or automatically with Dropbox and setup a folder for sync with Dropbox.
2) Setup LectureNotes to use this folder (or just setup Dropsync to point to the LectureNotes folder)
3) Notebooks create folders in that folder. Each page for the notebook is a PNG file. If you use single layer notes then you can obviously view this file elsewhere. Notes with more than one layer use multiple files so obviously that can complicate things.
I like to use lecture notes to take a "scanned" image of a handout and put it on one layer and then write text on top on another layer so this doesn't work for that but it does work for simple notes. I can't view the PNG files on the tablet for some reason but have no problem opening them on my PC.

Photo sync (camera upload) from a phone works in dropbox, and you have to choose an option whether any data connection or wifi only.
Try Sugarsync.

Faced with a similar need, I worked with a family member in another city to set up a private "Cloud" using FTP. I back my files up to his system, he backs his up to mine.
The PC apps are Filezilla server and client for the FTP functions. SyncBack is an automated backup/sync program. Those take care of PC to PC transfers and syncs.
The android app I chose is FolderSync.
Try GammaSync
For PC-to-Android folder synchronization (only one-way at the moment) I developed a free app which does not require external cloud storage services (like Dropbox or SugarSync). Check GammaSync. It's available on the Play Store. Maybe you'll find it useful

It woud be a bonus if I can open/edit them on my iPhone as well, but thats not a requirement.
I looked into Evernote, but for offline use they charge $45/yr.
No one has any ideas?
Is there a reason the Google Drive app won't work for you? You can create docs with that directly in Google Drive. If you're after an offline solution then you need to explain what you want more as there's obviously no offline sync solution.

Yes an offline solution is what I would be hoping for. If there was an App that i could launch, type up what I need and then when I save wrote to a local folder saved on my google drive then when I am back in WiFi range that file would hit the cloud and then sync to my Home desktop. That way I dont have to worry about online or offline.
Flick Note?
Okay, scratch that... Flick Note is Simplenote syncing.
Hit the "make available offline" button in Drive ?
Use an offline text-editor, save it, should sync ?
I've never tried it, I'd have to give it a shot.

While this will work, its does not allow for "Creating New Documents"..
Plus, not sure if just any text-editor will be able to read the Google Doc formats.
A basic document created from within Google Drive/Docs has the file format of .gdoc
Enabling "Offline" access, might convert the file to a standard .doc format, but I don't know for sure.
