I can't find the "option" section where I am supposed to be able to backup my onenotes

Question

I can't for the life of me see where under "File" there is the section where you are supposed to b e able to "backup your notebooks". I include what I am seeing under "File" for you to see what is there on my Macbook Pro. Can you give me any hints as to where I might find the "backup" section please?

Thanking you

Sr. Sabina

Sr_Sabina- I don't have a mac so cant answer but you should have a "Help" tab at the top of OneNote. Select it and use the "help" search box for back up. Might find the answer there.

Unfortunately it isn't under the "help" tab either.&nbsp;&nbsp;

This "may" help... I Windows we click on File - Options - Save &amp; Backup. Then choose ways to configure Saving and Backing-up

PNCTCMS&nbsp;&nbsp;Thank you for your suggestion.&nbsp; However, as I posted previously in a screenshot, there is no "File - Options - Save &amp; Backup" on a Mac.&nbsp; I include the screenshot again to show you what I'm seeing on my Macbook Pro.&nbsp;I'm open to any other suggestions as to why there should be this option in Windows and not on a Mac.Thanking you,Sabina

OK, I get your problem. I am not a Mac user or anything Apple but I may have a suggestion or a "workaround" which depends on how game you are to try "out of the box" ideas and your skill level. OneNote files are stored on Microsoft's OneDrive so I assume you have a Microsoft Account and access to OneDrive through a browser? Please confirm that A/ you have access to OneDrive and can see the x.one files that OneNote generates. B/ you're willing to try or go "outside the box". I don't want to waste time for either of us.
