4Troubleshooting

Tap a problem to see the fix.

Step 1 Open Google Takeout

It asks me to sign in

Step 2 Create the export

Everything is ticked

Click Deselect all, then tick Keep.

The export takes a while

Small Keep exports take minutes; Google emails you the link.

Step 3 Choose the export

Safari unzipped it

Choose the Takeout folder instead of the .zip.

Nuxa doesn't suggest my file

Click Choose the Export… and find it yourself; it's usually in Downloads.

Step 4 Bringing your notes in…

It's taking a long time

Big libraries with many images take a while. You can keep working; stop and resume any time.

I stopped it by mistake

Click Resume: Nuxa carries on without reading everything again.

Step 5 Your notes are in

Some notes are missing

Check the list of things that weren't converted. Exports sometimes leave out notes the app keeps elsewhere.

I imported the wrong thing

Delete the “From Google Keep” notebook (⌘Z undoes it) and import again.

Any step Something else

I'm not sure which app I'm coming from

Pick Word, PDF & other files for loose documents, or Starting fresh.

macOS asks for permission

Nuxa asks before reading a folder or another app's notes. Click OK; nothing happens without your click.
