How do I open notebooks created in an earlier version of OneNote?

OneNote supports notebooks in the 2010-2016 notebook format. If you’re trying to open a notebook that’s been saved in either the OneNote 2007 or the OneNote 2003 format, you’ll need to first convert the notebook using the desktop version of OneNote. To do this, open the notebook in OneNote 2016 or 2013, and then choose File > Info. Next to the name of the notebook that you want to convert, choose Settings > Properties. In the dialog box that opens, choose the Convert to 2010-2016 button, and then click OK. When you’ve completed these steps, return to Windows 10 mobile version of OneNote and open the notebook there.

My SharePoint notebook doesn’t sync

OneNote supports SharePoint 2010 or newer, so you'll experience problems if you try to open and sync a notebook stored on any earlier version of SharePoint. Contact your SharePoint administrator if you don’t know which version of SharePoint your team is using.

SharePoint errors

Here are some things to try when you’re running into specific errors while using OneNote with notebooks shared on a SharePoint sites. Most of these procedures require administrator privileges on your SharePoint server.

Turn off Required Check-in/Check Out in the SharePoint Document Library

Navigate to the document library in SharePoint.
On the Library Tools ribbon, select Library > Library Settings > Versioning Settings.
Set the Require Check Out option to No.

Turn off Minor Versions in the SharePoint Document Library

Navigate to the document library in SharePoint.
On the Library Tools ribbon, select Library > Library Settings > Versioning Settings.
Set the Document Versioning History option to No Versioning.

Quota errors

Here are some things to try when you’re running into disk issues that may affect the storage of your notebooks.

I’m getting Quota Exceeded errors

OneNote can’t sync notebooks when you’ve run out of storage space. To fix this problem, first check to see if the notebook is stored on OneDrive or on SharePoint. OneDrive URLs will typically contain some variation of OneDrive, while SharePoint URLs are likely customized by the server administrator in your organization.

OneDrive

If your notebook is stored on OneDrive, check to see how much free space you have left for your account. If you are almost or completely out of space, you can delete files that you don't need, or purchase more OneDrive storage space.

SharePoint

If your notebook is stored on SharePoint, you may have exceeded the storage quota that’s been allocated to you. Contact your SharePoint or IT administrator to resolve the issue.

Your Computer

Notebooks that are stored on OneDrive or SharePoint are also cached locally on your computer. If you’re running out of disk space on your computer, the error may also appear. To free up space for your notebooks, consider deleting files that you don't need.

If you have lots of storage space left and you are still seeing this error message, please report this issue in the OneNote forums on Microsoft Answers so we can investigate the cause and find a solution.

OneNote can’t open my page or section

If you’re seeing the error “There’s a problem with the contents in this section,” try the following:

Open the notebook in the desktop version of OneNote, which provides notebook recovery options.

While we covered the shift towards the Windows 10 Modern app as the primary app, there were a few more features listed to be coming to the Windows app this year. Microsoft is improving the sync engine of OneNote between clients, so your changes sync faster between your devices whether you’re on Windows, Mac, the Web, Android, iOS or some combination of all.

There are a few more improvements coming to the OneNote for Windows 10 app like:

Insert and search for tags: OneNote 2016’s popular tags feature is coming to OneNote for Windows 10! Soon you’ll be able to insert, create, and search for custom tags, making it easy to mark key information and find it later. Tags you create will now roam with you to across your devices, and OneNote will even show you tags other people have used in a shared notebook so you don’t have to recreate them yourself. The new tags experience was designed based on your feedback, and it will be available later this summer.
View and edit files: See live previews of Office files in OneNote, work together on attached documents, and save space in your notebooks with cloud files. You’ll get all the benefits of saving a file on OneDrive with the context and convenience of an attachment or preview on a OneNote page.
Additional Class Notebook features: The full slate of Class Notebook features available in the add-on for OneNote 2016 will be available in OneNote for Windows 10 this summer. Best of all, you no longer need to install a separate add-in—it’s all built-in!

Microsoft will be making OneNote even better over the next year, and for users who are concerned about the removal of the old Windows app, don’t worry. The firm will keep the legacy app around until the feature transition is for the most part complete. By then, you probably won’t even notice.
