Hello, I've been using onenote since october - using it with pen tablet connected to my laptop (fairly new Lenovo Legion). It was occasionally lagging before - slow with switching pen colours/ereaser, slow to move or with undo but it was bearable. However in last few weeks it's become insane issue bothering me so much, when I want to scroll (up/down or left/right) it freezes, entire page turns white, and onenote stops responding for like 40 seconds, same with changing pen coulours/eraser. Do you have any tips what can I do so it stops doing this or am I doomed and need to export all my school ..read more

I own OneNote 2016 and have my installation files for it. I have a Microsoft 365 subscription. Upon install Microsoft 365 installs ALL office programs and has no provision to not install or remove individual office programs. With Microsoft 365 You install it all. No other installation options. I do not like OneNote for windows desktop in the 365 subscription. I prefer the look and feel and layout of the OneNote 2016 windows desktop program. Does anyone know if I can install OneNote 2016 along side my installation of Microsoft 365 without any problems. I would plan to only use 2016 and would n ..read more

Hello everyone. I use OneNote mostly to have handwritten notes from pdf's, books and lectures that I later resume more to add to my study notes. However these notes are not simply to do and forget, i want to access them 5 years from now on. How do i export them (notebooks), to PDF? Or what is your advice? I handwrite it on ipad but i have a laptop with windows. I dont know alot about technology so forgive me. One of my ideas is to transcribe these notes into obsidian and backup the folder to my external drive and in google drive aswell. :) thank you in advance submitted by /u/Etherianv [visi ..read more

I'm looking at reducing the size of a few notebooks. One in particular, I saved pdf reports inside the note instead of inserting as a Link to the OneNote Uploads directory. Is there a way to have the documents moved out of the notes and into the OneNotes Uploads directory automatically? Thanks submitted by /u/KhakiMan [visit reddit] [comments ..read more

Hello, I need help saving my university notes. I have a university account that I will eventually lose access to. I tried exporting my notebooks, but I got the "Sorry we can't create |0 It's possible you don't have the right permissions or disk space" message. When I toggle between my university and free personal OneNote account of the desktop app, I can access all of my notes. When I do this, it still says that I am using my university license though. When I log in to my personal account on the online app, none of my are available. I'm trying to figure out why this is, as my accounts both sa ..read more

Sometimes when I open OneNote, my categories look like this: I don't like this. If I reload the program it still looks like that. But if I wait maybe 10 minutes and then reload it, it looks like this instead: I do like this. Why does it keep doing this? I don't want to see the bigger rounded version ever, it's ugly and I can see less of my categories at the same time, it's at that point where it's caused me a tiny amount of frustration every day for a year... and that's why I am here looking for answers. Has anybody else experienced this behaviour and have a solution? submitted by /u/ThisPer ..read more
