On the privacy issue, it would be cool if there were a command in OneNote, or a separate litle tool you can put on the USB drive, that would be like "close this notebook and wipe data because this is a public computer". Essentially, some way of maintaining privacy.

It would be cool; as I use public computers from time to time (being a schoolperson), it would make me feel a lot better. Especially if I happen to be dealing with sensitive information.

The "wipe data because this is a public computer" is a good suggestion we could consider for the future. You can achieve something like this by going to Tools-Options-Save and clicking "Optimize all Files Now". Among other things, "optimize" cleans out any unused data in the cache file.

If you're really worried about security you could use our "Password Protection" feature to encrypt sections. If you do that the data for the section is encrypted not only in the notebook files, but in the cache. We don't write any copies anywhere that aren't encrypted. So it would not be accessible to anyone without the password. The one catch to that is embedded or "attached files" like word docs that you may have copied into OneNote We don't encrypt those separate files because they are stored outside our .one files. We warn you of this with a prompt if you insert files into password protected sections.

OneNote 2007 is out, and of course I rushed out to get a copy. It was the main reason that I had participated in the Office 2007 beta, and there were a number of great new feature. One particularly...

Thank you for this information. My husband and I both teach and write research books; OneNote became a way of life almost over night. If I'm using a Firelight portable hard drive as a shared notebooks place between my laptop and desktop, do I have to configure it for a specific drive as for a UBS key?

One thing that would be very helpful is to expand these instructions to deal with an already existing notebook on a thumb drive. This may be as simple as just starting with step 5, but it would be nice to make that explicit. A couple of other wrinkles to consider:

How about the unfiled section? How should that be handled?

What should be done with the Tools -> Options -> Save options? Should these be mapped to the USB drive?

Thanks for a very helpful post!

Nice post, but it would REALLY be helpful to do this with existing notebooks.

I have about 1000 pages in an old notebook....it would take sooooo long to transfer all of that into a new notebook.

If you have a solution to this could you please email me at izallgood8@aol.com? Thank you so much.

David,

I've set up an USB drive fine, however when I try to use the link outlook meeting and contact notes to One Note feature I get an error message telling me I cannot use the feature because the section I am trying to send to is not in an open notebook.

In fact the notebook is open and the send email feature works fine to the same notebook, only the two note linking options seem to have this problem. Sorry if this is not clear, but would like to know if you have seen this before or if anyone may have a solution

Thanks for your time.

Couple of responses:

- Daniel: you can indeed do this with an existing notebook. You can move a notebook to a USB drive (or anywhere else). By going to the File menu and Notebook Properties, then choose "Change Location" and move the notebook onto the USB drive. Or you can just close the notebook in OneNote. Then copy the folder that contains the notebook (the folder has the same name as the notebook). Copy it onto the USB drive and then reopen that folder as a notebook from OneNote (right click the folder will give a "Open as Notebook" option.

- P. Norris. You can do this with an existing notebook on a USB drive. Just start at step 5 as suggested.

- Dennis: I'll get one of our testers to look into this issue and see if we can reproduce it. You can Mail me (via the form) with more details if you have them.

Is it possible to put the cache file on an SD card if it never leaves the machine?

I have an 32gig SSD for my main disc and use EWF to keep the writes down on it (also makes it much faster) and the cache just ends up in the memory anyways never touching the main disk. Now Onenote complains about the sd card (pcmcia adapter with 4gig SD card that never leaves the machine) being removable and does not let me change the cache to there. Even though the options menu says it does not recommend placing it on a removable disk, Onenote outright bans it.

Anyways, is there any way to put the cache on the SD card, or is it forever going to be hittin the EWF layer?
