I'd like to create a shared notebook on Google Drive, and we can both load the OneNote application, and both use/edit the notebook. Is this possible? I don't want to have to make her install OneDrive just to sync a single application. . . . .and OneNote for Mac seems to only offer OneDrive or Sharepoint as locations in which you can put a notebook.


If this is a go exactly which files/folders do I move?

I only find 3 files indicated in the OneNote menus that I can move and

identify.Also I find a folder under My Documents titled "OneNote Notebooks" naming

the current notebooks. Can I move that?Thanks -*-

The question stated more simply is what do I need to put on another drive

in order to make it possible to recovered from major loss of data? -*-

If you also want to use the secondary drive as the main storage location

for your notebooks (so that all changes get saved there automatically

whenever OneNote is running), after you move the notebooks as described

above, rightclick on each notebook and select "close this notebook".

Then go to File->Open->Notebook and select each of the notebooks that're

now stored on the new drive.


Yes. One can put the data-files (as well as the cache) to any device.

If you are in fear of malfunctioning of the standard drive it might be

better to make an image of that drive an get a new HDD.


There's 2 areas of concern:

a) The data files (notebooks),

b) the Backup files.Both are per default stored in subdirectories of "My documents".

The storage locations can be viewed and edited in the ON "Options"

dialog:

Tools > Options > SaveBoth can easily moved.If it comes to security, first thing would be to move the Backup

directory to a safe place. If there more than one HDD in a system, it

always is good thing to keep backups on a device different from the

place where the data files are stored.

Way to go:

1.) With the Explorer move the directory holding the backup files;

2.) in "Tools > Options > Save" enter the path for new location for the

new storage location.

The "OneNote Notebooks" directory is the place where the notebook-files

are stored.

There is a subdirectory for each notebook.

And below the notebooks there are subdirectories for each "Section

Group" (if any) of each notebook. The ".one" files hold the sections.Way to go:

1.) In ON close all of the notebooks;

2.) move the whole directory "OneNote Notebooks" to the new location;

3.) change the path for the new storage location in "Tools > Options >

Save";

4.) open all of the notebooks one-by-one.After these steps all of your data would sit on a save place.HTH

So far things have gone smoothly as I have gotten great advice from you

folks on this message board.Can I assume once these above mentioned changes are in place and the

notebooks designated as shared that I can install OneNote on a laptop within

the network and it can access the notebooks??If I move the notebooks to a "safe" location but for some reason lose the

cache files will OneNote recreate the cache files upon reopening the

notebooks?Thank you -*-

"Yes, you can"

Just one initial remark:

On the laptop you would not work with notebooks stored locally.

Just open the notebooks "shared" from your main computer.

ON will then automatically synch when the laptop is connected to the PC.

All changes made when the computers are not connected will automatically

be synched as soon as the devices will be connected again.It makes things easier when on your laptop you create a drive-letter

(mapping) for the location where the shared notebooks are stored on the

PC.

You could then also specify the mapped drive as the default storage

location in "Tools > Options > Save".


Yes, ON will re-create the file.

However, changes made on one of the computers when they were not

connected would get lost.

Therefore - when really in fear because the possibly defective drive -

you may move the storage place of to a different/safe location (see

lower part of the dialog of "Tools > Options > Save").Rainald




Just a thought, Jim, but if you have a hard drive that's behaving that

badly, I suspect a replacement is called for before you have a REALLY

serious data loss....//Steve//Steve Silverwood, KB6OJS

I had no trouble with this going from XP/ON2007 on one computer (actually a

backup copy from an external hard drive, as my old computer crashed

thoroughly) to Win 7 on another. I copied the notebooks into the "OneNote

Notebooks" directory on the new computer. Then opened them in ON, no

problem. They open in "compatibility mode" & I haven't dealt with getting

them in ON2010 mode yet.
