Can we upload audio and work collaboratively on an audio transcript with visible transcripts. Is anyone updating Windows Media Player at all? We just need to be able to copypaste time stamps on a Word doc. Being able to zoom in on the WMP time stamps would be great as well.
This is incredibly helpful! I use OneNote religiously to take notes during meetings and prep for 1:1s. I really appreciate the tips and will be sure to try them out.
Super amazing! I love how far OneNote has come. I used OneNote as part of Office 365 2016 my junior and senior years of high school. The features made it super easy to synch with my teachers and fellow students with whom I studied. Thank you!
My favorite shortcut is for the style for the text: ctr + alt + 1 is going to be Header 1, ctr + alt + 2 is for header 2, and so on. It is really good for taking notes and quickly formating them.
This is badass. I literally used the tip for copying text from picture just now and it saved me so much time instead of manually typing everything out. This is an extremely helpful video, thank you!
Such an informative video. I had no idea you could do so much with OneNote. Thanks for sharing the video. Looking forward to seeing what else is going to be added in the future.
Somehow you managed to finish the entire video without once cracking up on the Office Space references. Or maybe you needed multiple tries to get it done!! Great video!
Thank you Mike! I was wanting to make more use of one note and this video definitely helped... importing meeting details, making notes and then mailing them back out is a game changer!
Dude, this is the BEST tips/tutorial EVER. Thank you very much. It is so useful and has given me many ideas to increase productivity and note keeping. Thank you!!
This video is AMAZING! I'm in OneNote frequently, and had no idea some of these features existed!! So helpful, will definitely be utilizing and sharing with colleagues.
As someone who is making the reluctant switch from Evernote to Onenote due to the cost, (reluctant due to the perceived lack of functionality in Onenote) this makes me feel more confident in my decision! Excellent video, thanks
Would love to see some application of using tags more. The search tends not to be as accurate. Is there a libary of notebook examples we can take a look at?
I'm struggling with the "Desktop" format vs Windows 10. @10:00, you confirmed that a "similar" format is available for desktop, but this format leaves sections on the top ribbon and does not add a vertical navigation ribbon on the left side:(... Theres more, the orientation is just not as user friendly on the desktop format..
Check out the new blog, I think you’ll be happy techcommunity.microsoft.com/t5/education-blog/new-layout-options-for-onenote-on-windows-are-coming-soon/ba-p/3691211
Great Stuff. I've been a desktop OneNote user for years. Moving the page tabs to the left and pinning the notebooks so I can see the section groups is AMAZING. I would love it if the links to pages were easier to use in non-microsoft application. If I look at the text of a link it's really clunky.
OneNote has come a long way since the late 2000's. I would like to see more options for customized formatting and more control over documents like I have in Word. It would be nice to have the ability to pick custom colours for highlighters and create my own tag icons. For school use, it would also be awesome to have the ability to insert reference lists, enter citations and creating SmartArt diagrams/charts for lecture notes. Essentially, more characteristics of Word integrated into the OneNote program would make this the best Microsoft program ever made. I love the feature of copying text from picture. Eagerly waiting for the update for OneNote desktop. Thank you for the hard work and innovative ideas!
Thank you for this! I just discovered OneNote last week and have become obsessed with the app (my husband is teasing me because it's been around for years ;) Anyway, thanks for all the useful tips :)
Great and informative as always, thanks Mike! What I still don't understand is why there are two desktop versions of OneNote. I like the layout of OneNote for Windows 10 better, but it's missing "Email page" and as far as I can tell although some of the features of the other version's History tab can be found elsewhere, there is no way to go to "Next Unread" (which is great for me as a teacher)....
There are 2 versions of OneNote because OneNote for Windows 10 was supposed to replace the OneNote App. But since OneNote for Windows 10 did not support notebooks saved locally (to your computer or server), a lot of people were upset. So Microsoft kept the other version around. Since you first wrote this comment, Microsoft has continued to support both but has decided to update the OneNote app and will eventually stop supporting the OneNote windows 10 version. I too preferred the WIndows 10 version but at least they now have notebooks and tabs on the left :).
Thank you very much, Mike! I can't understand why it is still not possible to group objects in OneNote (I use the desktop version 2019, which I like much better than the app). For example, when you mark something with a highlighter or refer to something by drawing an arrow, the mark or arrow is not moved along when you move the corresponding content. The request for such a feature has been in relevant forums FOR AGES and would greatly improve the work with OneNote. I am sure that Microsoft is aware of this request also regarding the feedback feature. But Microsoft still doesn't care about it. Apparently it is more important to play around with the design than to take care of such a basic feature. By the way, you can see this again with Windows 11, for example with the file explorer: no tabs, no 2-window feature, ... But you can place your taskbar icons in the center now and the icons have round corners. Really great ...
Amazing video. I have learned a lot from this and definitely gained my confidence in using one note. This will help me to manage time and multiple tasks. Tx,
Mike, Thank you for making such an amazing and insightful video on OneNote! I am very new to OneNote, and to be honest I felt like a fish out of water at first. But after watching the video, I learned some quality of life improving tips and tricks that will save me SOOOOOOOOO much time trying to stay organized. My favorite tips so far from the video was the Wiki-Link forward creation and the Microsoft Teams integration (especially because my job utilizes Teams to a maddening degree), being able to incorporate OneNote into it is a complete gamechanger for me! Again, I cant Thank you enough!
Inking and transcribing updates are fantastic - OneNote M365 keeps getting better especially with the integration of all the best features of the Win 10 app 🖊📚
This is awesome! Since I started teleworking more due to the pandemic, I've found it harder to use my regular old notebook due to lack of adequate desk space. Using this saves trees and allows me to completely customize my notes to my heart's content. Plus, all my notes are literally a click away.
Very helpful thank you! Regarding creating and managing Containers is far from intuitive until after you learn to either double click anywhere outside of existing container; or single click to the far right of existing Container. For instance, you should be able to right click outside an existing container to select create new container ; or click on that option on the Insert ribbon menu. Regarding Collapsing a container, why is the standard use of a minus symbol on the left or up facing carrot in the top border not used? Especially when the standard plus symbol is used to Expand one. You should also be able to name a container and have it appear as part of the top border.
I'm very excited! Because I'm well known to be very "enthusiastic" about OneNote in my family for many years, I have to ask you: Where can I get all the OneNote purple clothes (OneNote-Shirt, cardigan and cape)?
Thank you Mike for this informative post. One thing that bothers me is that there are two different desktop versions of OneNote. I need to find out which one I will be using, but besides this OneNote is one of the underrated components of Office365.
Hi, Mike. I'm so grateful you prepared this video. It is really helpful thanks a bundle. By the way, I'm using the new dictation service in the Chrome browser to write this. The dictation in Microsoft office products is really valuable as well.
Thank you ! This video is really helpful😀. I would love to see the adding layers feature with hide /unhide options Onenote . For example: a professor give the students a math problem to solve (layer 1), then giving the student the answers (revealing layer 2 on top). This will save time especially in homework reviews. My professor in economics class uses L lecturenote app instead of onenote because of this. Note capture feature which can be play as video or gif formats is also a good solution.
9:33 thaaanks!!!!!! that may be the main reason why still don't switch to that version of the app and continue using one note for windows 10. Now it needs a dark theme like the one note for windows 10 version! EDIT: found it!!!!! here are the steps if anyone else is looking to do the same: Click File > Options. In the OneNote Options dialog box, click the General tab. From the Office Themes drop-down, select Black.
Terrific video. Is there a way to automatically align the text boxes to a specific location, e.g. the left margin? I find this free-form helpful at times, but most often annoying.
It would be really great if the container width would automatically match the page the width so that I can always see the entire width of the container when revising the One Note window or when I'm snapping it in windows.
Mike, much appreciate your content! I have looked everywhere but failed to resolve the missing "Live Captions" function in OneNote (Microsoft® OneNote® for Microsoft 365 MSO (Version 2205 Build 16.0.15225.20278) 64-bit ). How can I activate this feature? I have "Learning Tools" and "Class Notekook" add-ins installed. Please be so kind and assist with this dilemma!
Hello if you still read comments i need some help, i have both versions of onenote for desktop. Im using onenote to take notes in maths class, The new onenote has much better pen features in my opinion, especially the feature to disable pen sensitivity, and the shortcuts ribbon, although these are not available in the Onenote for Windows 10, which wouldnt be a problem but the new Onenote doesnt have some features that Onenote for Windows 10 has, such as the math assistant and ruler feature which are also very useful. Why arent all these features available on the new Onenote or is there a way to enable them. (also i noticed there is a option to enable the maths assistant and ruler to the ribbon shortcuts in the new Onenote, but when I do that they are greyed out)
OneNote Desktop has recently been adding a bunch of features like the Ruler, Math tools, and more. Check out my latest "Top X new features in OneNote" videos to see all the new updates. You need to be on Office 365 subscription to get the new OneNote Desktop update. Join insider.office.com to see even more on the beta builds
@@MikeTholfsen Hello, thanks for responding, I have checked the video you mentioned and my Onenote is clearly on a older version than that. I have attempted to update my app using File>Account>office Updates, but it tells me im all upt to date already. I also tried to join the insiders program that you linked, but there is no button for that either on my onenote, and i checked and i do have the correct subscription. Any help is appreciated, thanks
Mike, great video. Well worth the time to watch. I have been trying to find a way to easily alphabetize the Notebooks. You showed how we can easily alphabetize the pages now with a new feature. But can we do this with the Notebooks themselves?
Hi, thanks for all the helpful tips! I'm not sure what I'm missing to view the colored page/section tabs at the top of the main window? I checked the general settings...newbie here. Appreciate if anyone has the answer!
Hey Mike! Thanks so much for the great video! Do you know if there is a way to notify the person you are sharing a notebook with that you have made an update?
Thanks for doing a desktop one! A majority of these features have been available for years and are part of the reason why we're stoked you're keeping it around. I love the overview though. Keep them coming (next tip include Options > Advanced > Always print to background....teachers love this one).
The app has potential for teaching. However as a Maths teacher pls could you do something about the line tool. Using ink to shape and drawing an arrow at the end is very hit and miss. Also difficult to manipulate once drawn. Please have a look at notability on how the line tool is draw and easy to manipulate once drawn. You could also consider allowing the line tool to be in the favourites tool bar. Thank you for a great video.
It would be great to have Ctrl + D feature to select/edit multiple same words at the same time, like I use while writing markdown in VS code. Already, some features like Alt + Shift + arrow keys are implemented and that's so cool 😋
Mike you are a genius! I use One Note for work daily, and I also homeschool my daugher, so these tips have inspired me to build a system to use one note to keep myself organized with lessons and assignments as well. Being able to transfer a completed assignment to ON and grade and then email will save me sooo much time and will no doubt make my daugheter more organized! This short video was life changing, I'm about to spend the rest of the day watching all your videos! lol
Help needed! When I have My Notebook open/expanded (so I can see all my sections and pages) as soon as I click in a note, the My Notebook section closes, and it drives me crazy. How do I, I don't know, freeze (?) it, to keep the My Notebook section expanded so I can see all my sections and pages, but also edit notes? Does that make sense?
You sir, are an absolute legend. Will you be doing videos about how this integrates with MS Loop when the time comes? We're really excited in my company to see how it can boost one note into the ultimate PM tool!
Thanks a lot for all these tips :) I gotta say...I'm always amazed by the fact that MS can provide so many useful tools and upgrade them regularly...while leaving big bugs and other issues unsolved xD That's weird :)
Great video. I couldn't catch how to type on the background photo though (tip 4). I didn't have the "Meeting Details" button under Home, do you know what could be the reason? I couldn't find tags in Windows 11.
Is there a way I could change my text highlight width to be more narrow and just go over the text and not cover the space between lines after making my line spacing bigger? Thank you
I'm using OneNote for Windows 10 and I have tried with your tip #20 (write a list of names and create a page for each using "link to pages") but I cannot find the option. I have also tried with 365 and haven't found it either. Any ideas? Thanks!
We use OneNote as our office manual but need to keep a printed copy - is there a way to print this with all the headings pulled into an Index page that references the printed page number (not just the page number of that section). Exporting to Word and manually adding an index is too onerous due to the size of our onenote.
Great vid! but I have a question, is there any way to change to layout View of OneNote for Windows 10 App to be laid out the same as OneNote 2016? Thanks for the help! I'd appreciate it
I'm a little confused. I am using windows 10 on my winpc laptop. Still a desktop I guess. The audio sync will it work or not? I was confused on how you explained it. Ty, great vids. Would it matter if I upgraded to Win 11?
The Windows 10 app is different than the "classic" OneNote Desktop app. Although the OneNote Desktop app is being rejuvenated and brought back to life. Audio sync works with Desktop only, not the Windows 10 app
This question goes back for many years but I cannot locate a solution or enhancement. Like in other MS apps, is there a way to auto number table rows in OneNote?
The 'copy text from picture would be so useful if it worked faster, you say it takes a day, it took 3. So in that case it isn't useful at all. Is there something I'm missing to speed it up?
Watch Next ⏩ Top 10 new features in OneNote: th-cam.com/video/xjm6PA9XLsM/w-d-xo.html
Can we upload audio and work collaboratively on an audio transcript with visible transcripts.
Is anyone updating Windows Media Player at all? We just need to be able to copypaste time stamps on a Word doc. Being able to zoom in on the WMP time stamps would be great as well.
Great tips Mike - The bonus one is genius!!
I love your cape and shirt. Where did you get those? I NEED these for work! I love your Teams videos, and just started the One Note and Forms. :)

I Love OneNote so much !!! It helped me organize my life for years now and helped me be way more productive. But …the lack of updates bored me ….
Stay tuned! 2021 and 2022 will have lots more updates, especially to Desktop and web

Thanks for doing a desktop one! A majority of these features have been available for years and are part of the reason why we're stoked you're keeping it around. I love the overview though. Keep them coming (next tip include Options > Advanced > Always print to background....teachers love this one).
I actually had that Advanced one in here earlier but it got left on the cutting room floor because my video was too long!
Excellent video of tips. I learned a lot 👏🏻
The app has potential for teaching. However as a Maths teacher pls could you do something about the line tool. Using ink to shape and drawing an arrow at the end is very hit and miss. Also difficult to manipulate once drawn. Please have a look at notability on how the line tool is draw and easy to manipulate once drawn. You could also consider allowing the line tool to be in the favourites tool bar. Thank you for a great video.
It would be great to have Ctrl + D feature to select/edit multiple same words at the same time, like I use while writing markdown in VS code. Already, some features like Alt + Shift + arrow keys are implemented and that's so cool 😋
Mike you are a genius! I use One Note for work daily, and I also homeschool my daugher, so these tips have inspired me to build a system to use one note to keep myself organized with lessons and assignments as well. Being able to transfer a completed assignment to ON and grade and then email will save me sooo much time and will no doubt make my daugheter more organized! This short video was life changing, I'm about to spend the rest of the day watching all your videos! lol
Help needed! When I have My Notebook open/expanded (so I can see all my sections and pages) as soon as I click in a note, the My Notebook section closes, and it drives me crazy. How do I, I don't know, freeze (?) it, to keep the My Notebook section expanded so I can see all my sections and pages, but also edit notes? Does that make sense?
You sir, are an absolute legend. Will you be doing videos about how this integrates with MS Loop when the time comes? We're really excited in my company to see how it can boost one note into the ultimate PM tool!
this is great. collapse option doesn't work for me for some reason.
do I need to add some text just before the list? still doesn't work tho.
This was very informative. Thank you!
Copy text from picture can also get handwriting from a photo!!! The most underrated feature of OneNote!
Yes!
Thanks a lot for all these tips :)
I gotta say...I'm always amazed by the fact that MS can provide so many useful tools and upgrade them regularly...while leaving big bugs and other issues unsolved xD That's weird :)
Great video. I couldn't catch how to type on the background photo though (tip 4). I didn't have the "Meeting Details" button under Home, do you know what could be the reason? I couldn't find tags in Windows 11.
Is there a way I could change my text highlight width to be more narrow and just go over the text and not cover the space between lines after making my line spacing bigger? Thank you
This has changed my life! 🎉
Your tutorial is amazing helpful. Thank you!
I'm using OneNote for Windows 10 and I have tried with your tip #20 (write a list of names and create a page for each using "link to pages") but I cannot find the option. I have also tried with 365 and haven't found it either. Any ideas? Thanks!
This tip only works with OneNote Desktop, not the Windows 10 app
We use OneNote as our office manual but need to keep a printed copy - is there a way to print this with all the headings pulled into an Index page that references the printed page number (not just the page number of that section). Exporting to Word and manually adding an index is too onerous due to the size of our onenote.
Great vid! but I have a question, is there any way to change to layout View of OneNote for Windows 10 App to be laid out the same as OneNote 2016? Thanks for the help! I'd appreciate it
I'm a little confused. I am using windows 10 on my winpc laptop. Still a desktop I guess. The audio sync will it work or not? I was confused on how you explained it. Ty, great vids. Would it matter if I upgraded to Win 11?
The Windows 10 app is different than the "classic" OneNote Desktop app. Although the OneNote Desktop app is being rejuvenated and brought back to life. Audio sync works with Desktop only, not the Windows 10 app
This question goes back for many years but I cannot locate a solution or enhancement. Like in other MS apps, is there a way to auto number table rows in OneNote?
Not at this time
Thank you Mike! It helps me a lot!
Glad to hear it!
Great and very useful tips!!!
The 'copy text from picture would be so useful if it worked faster, you say it takes a day, it took 3. So in that case it isn't useful at all. Is there something I'm missing to speed it up?
… super tips! Thank you very much!
Is there a possibility to collapse or open outlines all at once.?
Great tips, does the bonus tip also work the other way around?
No, it only goes one way
