OneNote missing files
I tried opening the OneNote app and none of my notes were there, I tried resyncing, I tried looking at the online OneNote website, neither fixed the issue. I contacted the OneNote team, who referred me to the OneDrive team who referred me back to the OneNote team with the following info: "The OneNote notebook files remain present in OneDrive. No OneDrive data-loss indicators or deletion events have been identified. New pages can still be created and saved successfully. The issue appears to involve existing notebook content not being displayed within OneNote. The behavior is reproducible in both the OneNote app and OneNote Web. Based on the information available, the concern appears to be related to the way OneNote is rendering, synchronizing, or accessing the notebook contents rather than a missing-file condition within OneDrive storage itself. " The OneNote team told me to see if anyone on the forums could help me out, I would really appreciate the help since I have hundreds of files that I am now missing.
OneNote for iPad - bug on undo in draw mode.
I make extensive handwritten notes with my Apple Pencil on my iPad Pro using Draw mode in OneNote. This week I noticed that when I hit undo, the app crashes and I have to restart completely. When restarting I find that I also lost some my most recent markings. This is very disruptive and needs to be fixed. iPad Pro (11-inch) (4th generation) iOS version 27.0.1 OneNote for iPad version 16.114.2 (26092517)
Onenote cannot search for handwriting
I have a problem where my Microsoft OneNote cannot search for ink/handwriting, though it used to be searchable. It can search for text but not handwritten notes. My friend who just downloaded OneNote is able to do so, while my other friend who has used OneNote for years is also unable to search for handwriting. Interestingly, I can search for a 5-year old handwriting on a single section of a notebook, but new handwritings on a new section of that notebook is unsearchable. After writing on that page, it rendered handwriting on that page unsearchable, including the words that used to be searchable. I am using: Windows 11 version 25H2 desktop app, Onenote web (tried writing on both too) I have tried: Lasso tool > treat ink as > handwriting OneNote is synced to OneDrive Attempting to delete and redownload (couldn't fully delete OneNote) File > Options > Advanced > Pen > Enable automatic handwriting recognition Making a new notebook Searching handwritings from different ages. Handwritings from 6 months ago, and days ago cannot be searchable. Deleted cache Repaired Microsoft 365 Rebuilt windows search index
