Is your note content stopping Evernote from syncing?

If you have your Evernote apps are not syncing and your have tried forcing sync then it is possible that actual note content is stopping the syncing process.

A user at the evernote discussion forums, "elephantintheroom", made a post outlining a bug where a sequence of characters in his note would prevent Evernote from updating. A list of characters identified by the user are below:

• >>>
• <<<
• ***

If you have any of these characters, try remove them and give syncing another try. Are you still having issues? Have you found another solution? leave a reply below and I'll see how I can help. 

How to force SYNC on Android and Desktop devices

If your [Android] mobile Evernote App is not receiving new notes made on your desktop (or the other way around) try this quick and simple fix. The following two steps show you how to force each device to re-sync.

ANDROID Head to your android phone. Hit the SYNC button and then clear the data for the Evernote app. I believe this just removes the saved account information, so you shouldn't need to worry about any notes being deleted. Once this is done, open Evernote on your android device and sign in to your account.

Tap on the "Clear data"  button

If you see all your notes, we can assume the android SYNC is working.

DESKTOP Head over to your desktop and we will go about doing the same thing. In your Evernote application, locate the file menu. There should be an option that contains the text for your email address. Go ahead and click on that to force the application to re-sync to your account.

Click on your user account to 're-log'

After completing the above steps try syncing on both devices to see if new notes are fetched.

If unfortunately your problem is still not fixed, check if your note has content stopping Evernote sync.
