Copying OneNote Files from/to OneDrive and SharePoint
I'm attempting to educate our users on the appropriate use of SharePoint and OneDrive. There are a lot of users that would like to move OneNote notebooks from their OneDrive to a SharePoint site. I...
I recommend you turn off Auto-Sync before copying large numbers of sections from one notebook to another. When you're all done, turn auto-sync back on and leave things alone until OneNote finishes updating. This will prevent OneNote trying to sync moving targets while you are moving the sections from one notebook to another.
Also, after turning off auto-sync, if you have a large number of sections to move, it is helpful to add Section Groups to the old notebook, and move all of the sections under the Section Groups. You can them move entire Section Groups from the old notebook to the new, as opposed to having to move them one at a time, since there is no <CTRL>Click to allow the selection of multiple sections to move all at once.
