MarginNote 3 User Guide

Beijing YunSi Software Technology Co. Ltd.

Overview

MarginNote is an all-in-one deep reading and learning tool that integrates multiple aspects or learning, such as reading, note-taking, structuring, referencing, and reviewing, etc. smoothly in one tool and boosts the overall efficiency of learning.

MarginNote focuses on the internalization of knowledge, based on the observation of users' primary learning scenarios and the human brain memory processes, to help learners to deconstruct the knowledge from the books and reconstruct knowledge in the mind, in order to achieve a deep understanding efficiently.

Through reading, annotating, reconstructing information, and auto links among functions of the Outline and MindMap, MarginNote helps learners switch freely among the Document Mode, the Study Mode, and the Review Mode, so that they can easily achieve the SQ3R (Survey, Question, Read, Recall, and Review) learning process.

Here are the following ways to access MarginNote:

  1. Purchase at App Store, which is the only way to purchase MarginNote for iOS/iPadOS.

  2. For the "MarginNote for Mac" desktop version, you can also first download the software installer (opens new window) here, and then use activation code to unlock the full version. Activation code can be purchased at Digital Lychee, Sspai, education pricing (opens new window), and FastSpring (Alipay supported).

    To purchase software at App Store, simply download the software and unlock the full version within the software. The purchase authorization, which is bound with the iTunes account, makes it easy to update and maintain multiple devices and to enjoy the Apple family sharing policy.

    To puchase software via activation code, it should be noted that each activation code supports keeping 2 Macs activated at the same time. If you need to change the device or reinstall the system, you need to manually deactivate the current device in the main menu of MarginNote for Mac to complete the unbinding.

In addition, as the predecessor of MarginNote 3, MarginNote 2 pro has been deprecated and no new features will be added, because the software architecture, functional design, and interaction design have become obsolete and cannot meet the needs of users or keep up with the pace of cutting-edge technology. However, considering the MarginNote 2 users, we still keep the MarginNote 2 pro purchase channel in the App Store.

If you encounter problems while using MarginNote 3, you can follow the user guide. This user guide explains all the functions in the Home Screen, Document Mode, Study Mode, and Review Mode, by specifying the interface layout and buttons.

Due to the difference in operating systems, there are distinctions in some functions and interface settings among iOS/iPadOS and MAC desktop versions. The major differences will be explained separately, while minor differences will be marked in the footnote. Besides searching for the name of a button directly, you can also follow the numbers in example screenshots to find the corresponding function and see how to use it. The major differences are detailed in the following diagram.

How to sync on different devices

Method 1: Built-in iCloud data transfer

iCloud-based data synchronization has (manual + automatic) historical archives to protect user data during the synchronization process.

First of all, the device needs to be connected to the Internet, and iCloud needs to be selected as the "data sync mode" in the settings

Method 2: Handoff Transfer

Multi-device collaboration makes the real-time book reading progress possible, and ensures the consistency of notes in close communication.

On the use of "Handoff" feature, please refer to the description (opens new window) provided by Apple.

Method 3: Airdrop

Transfer notes are packaged in MarginNote's own backup format among different MarginNote users. Export backups, and share them to other devices with MarginNote opened. Or export all backups, and then transfer the full backup data among multiple devices.

On how to export backups, please refer to "FAQs on sync".

FAQs on sync

Q1: When a large number of PDF documents and their folders are imported into MN for the first time, sync is too slow due to the large capacity of data.

For iOS: A large number of documents can be synchronized for the first time by using iOS's built-in file management system . You can put the files in the iCloud-MarginNote3 folder. Or you can download the data manually.

For MacOS: To synchronize a large number of documents, please drop files directly to the iCloud folder in Finder in order to avoid some strange issues. Or you can download the data manually.

Because the current version of MarginNote3 sync mechanism is restricted by Apple, the content in the iCloud folder must be copied to MN internal storage (note that APFS will not take double the space). In many occasions, the error may come from this copy process. Therefore, if a large number of documents are to be synchronized for the first time, it is better to put the documents into Files for iOS or the MarginNote 3 folder in Finder for Mac OS, after which the error rate of incremental sync of note content will be much lower in practice.

Q2: Error when trying to open the same document with two devices on the same WiFi with WiFi Transfer

MarginNote Pro has this Wifi transfer feature, but is hasn't been ported to MarginNote 3 yet. We will improve MarginNote 3's short-range transfer in the next few releases. MarginNote Pro automatically detects your state and will automatically transfer over high speed LAN when you use the Handoff. In the current version of MarginNote 3, please avoid this scenario if possible.

Q3: iCloud global exception due to Mac OS redundancy error

After making sure all your data is backed up, reboot your Mac, press "Option+R", and select "Reinstall without data protection". This should fix most of the troubles.

Q4: Network failure due to iCloud account attribution

In the past two years, Apple has transferred the iCloud server in mainland China to Guizhou Cloud (云上贵州). Users who have not transferred their iCloud accounts may encounter problems such as slow access or high error rate. You can sign up a mainland China account that belongs to Guizhou Cloud for synchronization.

Q5: Error in syncing a single notebook

Turn off the sync switch of the corresponding notebook, then turn it on again after 30 seconds and try again.

What is Historical Archive (opens new window) #3.5.2

Q1: What is historical archive?

Firstly, in case that the data goes wrong, you can revert back. Some users have reported that when syncing data, there was an accident where the old data replaced the new data, resulting in a large amount of data lost. Now in this case, MarginNote will automatically archive the data before things go wrong, which enhances the security of data sync.

Secondly, you can do historical version comparison and split-screen comparison if necessary.

Q2: How to archive?

Auto archiving:

Currently there is only one case where the notes are automatically archived, and that is when notes are deleted due to a sync. It will be automatically archived in advance on the device that is to sync.

Manual archiving:

Tap the "Export" button in the Document/Study/Review Mode, and select "Save in Historical Archives".

In the bottom left corner of the home screen, tap "...", and select "Historical Archives".

Switch to the corresponding notebook, tap "View" to open this historical archive.

Q3: Does the historical archive take up a lot of space?

The historical archive take up very little storage. For example, for a 300M backup of a document, the historical archive only takes up 8M.

Q4: Can you edit the historical archive?

No, you cannot. It is read-only, like a free MarginNote browser.

Many editing functions are not available.

Excerpt tools can only be used to select.

Annotation and handwriting will be cleared when moving.
