Daniel Escapa's OneNote Blog

This is interesting. Microsoft’s Mac Unit is hearing from users that they’d like to see OneNote

Spreading OneNote's reach would be a good thing! Its a great program; discovering it was the second reason (after TabletPC devices themselves; I have a Motion LE1600) that led me back to Windows after 13 years on the Mac. I'm in the middle of the transition so emotionally I'm still very fragile, rationally I'm manic. I keep wondering if this is all part of the characteristic mid-life crisis, only I'm not divorcing, buying a sports car, and dating girls half my age...

Anyway!  Other than supporting any effort to port OneNote to Mac, I wanted to point out a small thing that defies explanation in my usage of OneNote 2007.  When using the 'Send to OneNote' PowerToy in Internet Explorer 7, why does all the text lose its line feeds/carriage returns (not sure which)? Paragraphs run together and make a mess of imported text. The same thing happened in OneNote 2003. Is there a reason this behaviour continues, some technical reason why it cannot be corrected/improved?

I hope you don't mind, but I plan to post this to Nadyne's comments too - perhaps someone will eventually come across it and respond with some useful information - I've searched high and low but its as if no one else has noted the behaviour. Its very likely, given my experience, due to me being an idiot for having missed an important tick box in OneNote's Preferences, so my apologies if this turns out to be the case.

Many thanks for such a great blog, Dan!  You rock!  Thanks to the writing of yourself and Chris Pratley, my mid-life crisis has gone much more smoothly than I could have hoped!

DEFINITELY would love to get OneNote on the mac... recently made the move to a MacBook Pro/MacIntel and boy oh boy, the note taking stuff sure leaves a bit to be desired when compared to OneNote.

Sure miss it...

Yes, absolutely.  There are other note-taking programs that are natively available for the Mac.  However, none of them come close to being able to offer what OneNote has been able to bring to the table.  I look forward to the day when OneNote will be available for the Mac.

I would give anything to have OneNote and Outlook integration on a Mac.  I am thinking about leaving PC for a Mac, but am resisting just because of One Note.  A true Mac tablet would be a dream come true.  I lecture off tablets, but use Onenote on my 10" Fujitsu notebook daily.  I may just go to the Mac and run it with Prallels for Outlook and One Note.  I suppose that sounds crazy, but the display of the Mac Pro is so amazing for photo work, It's worth using it as an XP machine full time.

I saw this blog post and it caught my eye: why do you want OneNote on your Mac?   I own a Mac and I LOVE OneNote so for me having OneNote on my Mac would just rock my world.  Anyhow please go over and tell Nadyne how you would want OneNote

Yes - having the ability to get my PC onenote notes on my new iPhone would be awesome.  That's the only thing I miss from my old MS smartphone.  

Anyone know of a solution for that?
