Take this:
- Locate the Misplaced Sections
- In OneNote, scroll to the bottom of your notebook list.
- Click on “Misplaced Sections”
- Manually Move the Pages
- Right-click the tab of the misplaced section.
- Select “Move or Copy”.
- Choose the correct notebook and section where the page should go.
- Force a Manual Sync
- Press Shift + F9 to trigger a manual sync.
- This can help OneNote re-attempt syncing and sometimes resolve the issue automatically.
- Check Section Names
- Make sure the section name in your notebook exactly matches the one in the student notebooks.
- Use the Web Version for Distribution
- When distributing pages, try using the OneNote Class Notebook web interface.
- Restart and Reconnect
- Restart OneNote and Microsoft Teams.
- Log out and back in to refresh your credentials and sync status.
- Check for Backups
Go to File > Info > Open Backups to recover older versions of your notes if needed.
