#145558 — One Note

I'm using the latest version if Windows 11, and for a long time I've
had One Note running under it. I've also had One Note running on my
Pixel 4A, where it always synched to my desktop computer.

It's no longer synching. The Android now has about a 4 day old version
of notes that have had several recent changes.

I don't know why, but I just got a laptop computer running Windows 11,
where I installed One Note and it synchs to the desktop properly.

Can someone tell me what might be wrong and how to fix it?

For some reason my OneNote Android home screen shows most recently edited pages feom
months ago, but if you open a notebook and swipe down to force resync it
does.

I just made a change with the web version and it synced to Android
automatically.

Can you check the web version (onenote.com) and see if it's a sync problem
with Windows sending or Android receiving?  The desktop and web versions
sometimes provide status while it syncs, and see differences if there
was a merge failure.

Beware there are two Windows versions, 'legacy' and the UWP which is mostly
the web version in a wrapper. The latter was advertised as 'OneNote for
Windows 10' - MS were going to base future ON on that, and later changed
course to revive the legacy version (which has more features). Possibly you
have both versions which could behave differently?

I went to onenote.com, but I don't see what version it is, nor do I
see whether it's a sync problem with Windows sending or Android
receiving. Can you point me to the right place?

I think I remember once seeing that I had two versions installed, but
I can't remember how or where I saw it, nor does that URL do a good
job of telling me how to find out. It's probably likely that that's my
problem. Can you be more explicit and tell me exactly what I should do
to find out and how to fix the problem? Thanks again.

Is  one possibility to fix it that I should uninstall OneNote on my
phone then reinstall it? If so, exactly what should I do to be sure I
reinstall the correct version?

Thinking about this some more, that doesn't make sense. The desktop
and Android phone version(s?) of OneNote had both been installed long
ago and always synched without a problem. The synching problem just
started a few days ago when I installed OneNote on my new laptop,
which as I said, does synch properly.

Make a change in the Windows client, can you see the change in the web version?
If so, it's the Android client not receiving that's the problem.
If not, if the Windows client not sending that's the problem.

Repeat for Windows and Android switched around.
You can also make a change in the web client and see if Windows and Android
pick it up.
Does anything happen if you actively tell it to sync?

I have no idea how to fix the problem, the above is just a way to narrow
down where and what the problem is.

Logging out a client and logging back in again may be a way to force a
full re-download, although it may keep things cached in which case you might
need to reinstall the app.

(A bit of background that's useful to know is that the desktop Windows
version of Onenote uses .one files for notebooks, but cloud notebooks aren't
based on .one - there's no way to download .one files from Onedrive.  They
look like files but they're actually a database stored on the MS server, and
all the clients talk to the DB to sync updates back and forth.  As they
aren't files you can't do the usual things you'd do with cloud-saved files
like Word documents.)

Don't see the change in either the web version or the Windows program.

Tried that too. The Windows program doesn't pick it up, and Android
still picks up no changes

>Does anything happen if you actively tell it to sync?

No.

I uninstalled it, then reinstalled. Now the Windows app and the web
version are synched. The version on the laptop also is. The Android
version still isn't.

Do you or anyone else here have any idea what to do? Where can I go
from here? How to fix it? Should I try uninstalling, then
reinstalling, the Android version?

I have it *sort of* fixed. When I start OneNote on my phone, I click
on "New Section 1." I then choose ToDo, which is the most important
note on OneNote for me. I then get it correctly synched, but with the
comment at the top saying "PAGE CONFLICTS DETECTED."

The other notes I have on OneNote on Android are still not correctly
synched.

The same is true on my laptop and the web OneNote. ToDo is synched;
the other notes are not.

If this helps anyone to tell me what to do fix everything that would
be great, but if not, I can live with it like this, at least for a
while.

An update to the situation:

When I make a change to my desktop (my main computer), it's not seen
on my Android phone. If I then go to the laptop and look at OneNote,
the change isn't there, but if I wait a second or two, it quickly
appears. If I then go to my Android phone, the change then also
appears there. It seems that the phone synchs to the laptop, but not
to the desktop.

Before doing that I would logout and log back in on your android version. 

Also how old is your android phone and version of androud? Is it possible
it is out of support.

Android 16 is the current version so it's possible the OneNote doesn't
support 13. 

Android 9 is the minimum requirement according to here, but there's also
recent comments - with replies from MS - around syncing issues

Nonsense:

First released in 2008, Android is the world's most widely used
operating system; the latest version, released on October 15, 2024, is
Android 15.

You clearly didn't read even the first paragraph

"Android 16 is the upcoming major release of Android. The first 
developer preview was released on November 19, 2024. Google expects the 
platform to reach beta stage in January 2025 with a final release 
expected in the second quarter of 2025."
