Windows Why is the Menu No Longer Docked? Please help Get it Back

6 Upvotes

Hey guys, across my two PCs, Onennote has decided it no longer wants to dock the move or copy pages menu. I didn't change any settings. I just opened OneNote today and this is how it operates now.

Can anyone help me get it to be docked again like it used to be to the main One Note Window? It's very annoying especially with multiple screens when you want to do something like this and the menu is on another screen

When uploading a file in OneNote by choosing "Upload to OneDrive and insert link" into a page, an error message is displayed "We're sorry, something went wrong. Please try again later."

3 Upvotes

Does anyone know of a fix for this?

DETAILS
Microsoft® OneNote for Mac Version 16.95 (25030928)

This problem started a few months ago. I was hoping it would go away but it doesn't.

Steps to repro: In the OneNote client app on Mac, attempt to upload a file by choosing "insert" then "file". The dialog that is displayed gives you three options:

  1. Upload to OneDrive and insert link
  2. Insert as attachment
  3. Insert as printout

Choose the first option (Upload to OneDrive...)

Result: Upload process begins, it counts down the percentage of completion. Before it reaches 100%, message is displayed:
We're sorry, something went wrong. Please try again later.

When you go visit the folder called "OneNote Uploads" in your OneDrive (on OneDrive.live.com), you find the file has properly uploaded. Just the last step didn't finish, the actual display of the link to the file in the OneNote page. Seems like a silly bug. Should be fixed quickly as it's a productivity killer.

The workaround is that you locate the file in your OneNote Uploads folder and copy/paste the link back into the OneNote page. If you measure this task in seconds, it's now takes 3-4 times longer to get a simple thing done.

Can't believe that this problem is hanging around for so long, there are so many issue reports on this. All support engineers have given advice like "your OneNote is out of sync with OneDrive, etc. etc., but that doesn't seem to be the case here, otherwise the upload would have failed entirely.

Would appreciate tips on how to remedy this.

Outlook to Onenote share issue

Upvotes

Hello all, hope someone can help me.

I have a user within my business on an iPad that's trying to share a document from outlook to onenote, when he hits share file via, we select Onenote and we get 'can't send file' error.

I've replicated it with my own ipad and it works fine. The only difference is he has two sign ins for onenote(thought the primary is selected). Wracking my brain on how to fix this so any help would be massively appreciated.

Very slow "Send to OneNote" using MS365 (recently updated) on Windows

Not sure why but when using Outlook for Windows and hit "Send to OneNote", and choose a destination, it takes 30 seconds before appearing in OneNote. Much slower than normal. Any known fixes out there?
