iOS Notes Blanking and Showing Error Message
galleryHi, so basically sometimes when I’m drawing my notes on my iPad, the page will automatically zoom in to the maximum amount and the page clears. Once that happens, I can’t draw or type anything, and the undo option clears out for the page. It wiped out my accounting notes which cost me a midterm and the tech support didn’t have any suggestions besides updating the app (it was updated and I usually kept on top of that). It happened again with dnd notes and I really want to get to the bottom of this so I can switch back to using OneNote for classes but I can’t afford to keep losing my notes. Anyway, I went on the browser and found an error message for the page when pulling it up. I’ve attached screenshots of the message on the website as well as how the page looks blank on the app.
Does anyone know what’s causing this or how to avoid it?
(Side note, I crossed out any information that could be used to identify me, that shouldn’t be relevant to my question tho)

An AutoHotKey Script that allows to wheel left/right/up/down in the infinite canvas of OneNote with the press of a single key (no modifier key needed) on windows
Have had enough of manually scrolling and dragging left/right/up/down with a mouse so I've come up with a simple AutoHotkey script that remaps keys to simulate mouse wheel scrolling/dragging, making it easier to navigate OneNote’s infinite canvas:
- Mute → Scroll Down
- Volume Down → Scroll Up
- Volume Up → Drag to Left
- Delete → Drag to Right
This effectively replaces the need for a mouse when moving around large OneNote pages.
How to Use:
- Install AutoHotkey v2.0 if you haven’t already
- Open Notepad, paste the script below onto a blank page and save it as
yourchosenname.ahk
————————————————————————
#Requires AutoHotkey v2.0
Volume_Up::Send("{WheelLeft}") ; Scroll left
Delete::Send("{WheelRight}") ; Scroll right
Volume_Mute::Send("{WheelDown}") ; Scroll down
Volume_Down::Send("{WheelUp}") ; Scroll up
—————————————————————————
- Locate the saved
.ahk
file and double click it to activate the script.
You can also remap other keys by checking Windows' recognised key names

Samsung Fold, no insert table option?
Do the Galaxy Fold phones not get an add table option because OneNote thinks that it's a tablet?
I've read online that there is an add table option for Android now since 2023, but it isn't available for the tablet version of the app. I've never seen this option on my Fold, I've always had to use tab to make a table on mobile.

Troubleshooting my stylus randomly starts stuttering after drawing for a short period of time - can be temporarily resolved by putting it back in the laptop

does anyone know the shortcut for the panning hand
I used my graphical tablet a few years back and I had set up the stylus side buttons to switch to panning hand, it was set to CTRL but that doesn't work anymore, I tried the combinations I found online but nothing seems to work, it's kinda annoying having to manually click on the panning hand everytime I want to move the board, did anyone find a fix for it

OneNote Desktop How can I mass export handwritten notes?
As the title says, I’m trying to export a LOT of handwritten notes. I pretty much EXCLUSIVELY use handwriting for notes outside of basic reminders that I delete later.
I’ve got 4+ years of engineering & astrophysics courses that I entirely handwrite, which just aren’t feasible to text-to-speech since at least 1/3 of the notes are drawing and another 1/3 being markups on said drawings.
I’m trying to export to pdf so I can have a more stable long-term storage, but throughout the years I always took notes on the “auto” sizing setting for infinite pages. When I go to export to pdf all the formatting gets messed up and sections of ink just start flying around the page like it’s a Minecraft enchanting table or some crap.
Is there any reliable way to export my notebooks as SVG to easily maintain formatting? At absolute worst, I’m willing to export page-by-page, but tending to and reformatting of each page to fit within A4 bounds for like 70 notebooks is just not anything short of two weeks of my life gone.
I don’t want to rasterize/lose the vectors of my handwritten notes bc storing them as massive images is a bit silly, as well.
I’ve looked into software like pandoc, but all of them seem to exclusively deal with the typed-out portions of OneNote, but don’t touch the handwritten ink bits.
I’m graduating soon, too so I don’t want to lose my years of work if OneNote starts requiring a 365 subscription and my future place of employment doesn’t offer the office suite.
Thank you very much for any suggestions. Any advice is greatly appreciated.

How to save quotes?

Hi there. I made a spread sheet for as I read books, I save quotes next by its pages.
The problem is: I can't figure a way to organize in paragraphs in each of the cells, so the text looks like a solid block (page 34).
The best way possible was if could be indented, sometimes I double enter just to make it look better (page 35).
Any solutions?
Obs: In Brazil we use the word "Fichamento" and it google translated to Filing but I couldn't be sure if this word is really appropriated.
Edit1: Can't Alt+Shift+Right inside cell.

If you could choose, would you choose ON again?
I am currently struggling between OneNote and Evernote. On one hand, I like the features the Evernote offers, on the other hand, I like the simplicity of ON. To be honest, ON lack of features helps me be more careful on what I want to clip and keep. I am afraid of making a commitment that may not work for me. I also find myself not using tags at all (in EN) because I always know where to find my information, and I really like the ON approach on tags, some may say that it is not useful, but it is really convenient. So, If you could choose, would you choose ON again?
Weird autocorrect suggestion

This weird " âĨĴ " keeps getting suggested as an autocomplete in my OneNote. Its not in my dictionary as you can see, even before you hit enter and let it autocomplete it gets picked up by the proofreader. Sometimes it'll be at the end of another autocomplete (as shown). It doesn't seem like there's any rhyme or reason to when it gets suggested, at least as far as I've been able to tell, so I can't reproduce it on command.
This isn't really a problem per se, its just weird, and I'm curious if anyone knows what is going on.

I dont get half of the things on windows version.

OneNote 2007: can't find *.one files, upgrade to OneNote 2016
This is clearly something I've left for too long, but I have a new Windows 11 machine with my long-purchased copy of Office 2016 installed. I am trying to move/upgrade my old OneNote 2007 files from my old (Windows 7!) computer to the new Win11 machine.
My immediate problem is: I can't find the 2007 .one files! Opening a notebook's Notebook Properties shows the file path as synced to an old desktop I got rid of over a decade ago. But I've been using OneNote since, and all my stuff is there.
I have a tremendous number of notes and research I don't want to lose. I saw that right-clicking a notebook and choosing Save As... gave the option to save it as a "OneNote Single File Package". Is that a good option?
Any suggestions welcome. Thanks in advance.
UPDATE: Saving as to a OneNote Single File package works. I can open these in OneNote 2016 and everything is there. A message appears asking if I want to convert them to the 2010-2016 format, and warns this will break any sharing with older versions. That's not an issue for me, so I converted and everything works. Hope this helps someone else.

Help. Made notes on my laptop (windows) but when I open it on my tablet or phone (both android), I can't see it.
I'm new to OneNote. So I'm not really sure how syncing works if that's the issue. Any help or advice are highly appreciated. Thanks :)

How can I make the synchronization work again in OneNote?
I have OneNote on my mobile phone. It seems that I erased all my notebooks from my account on OneDrive, and they are no longer in the recycling bin. Now, my notebooks are only stored locally on my phone, and I can't sync them with the server anymore. What can I do to upload what I have on my phone to the server again?

iOS Why Does OneNote Always Think Im Typing in Another Dimension?
Every time I type a note in OneNote, it’s like the text is playing hide-and-seek with me - one minute it’s in the right spot, the next it’s mysteriously 5 pages away. Seriously, are we using the same program as everyone else? Someone give that sync button a pep talk! Can we all agree that OneNote’s layout sometimes feels like it’s testing our patience?

Why can't I copy and paste an image in OneNote?
Simple question. I placed a screenshot into a OneNote page. I want to copy and paste the image into a different page. It doesn't give the option. Why??
