Lately, we have been getting Google queries for “OneNote Mac”, “OneNote for Mac”, etc. Sadly there is no version of OneNote for Mac. Microsoft does release Office for Macintosh. The last version of Office Mac was called Office 2004. It includes Word, Excel, PowerPoint, Entourage (Mac version of Outlook), and Virtual PC (available only with [...]
OneNote 2003′s drawing tools left a lot of things to be desired. There really weren’t any drawing tools. It was just the pen, selection tool, eraser, delete, etc bundled into a new toolbar called “Drawing and Writing Tools”. But all of those tools were available in other toolbars. Below is a screen shot of the [...]
I have been playing with OneNote 12 for a few weeks now and these are the new features I like so far. 1) Lasso Tool: a much needed feature missing from OneNote 2003. I don’t know why it was never included in the OneNote 2003, especially when Windows Journal had it. The lasso tool works [...]
The current beta version of Office is called Office 12. Today, Microsoft officially released price specification as well as the name of the new office. It will be called Office 2007.

OneNote 2003 has a dropdown navigation menu that I use frequently, but a comment on OneNotePowerToys.com got me thinking about quicker ways to get to a section… Created shortcuts on my desktop for my more frequent .one files. I added some of them to my Quick Launch toolbar as well. Inside Franklin-Covey’s PlanPlus, I add [...]
I finally got around to installing OneNote 12 on my computer and here are my first impressions. OneNote 12 is not completely ready for prime time yet and crashes once in a while. The crashes should get resolved as the beta testing program moves forward. Installation: Installation was very smooth but long. If you have [...]
Bookmarks are fairly limiting for remembering why you wanted to save a site. Social bookmarking and tagging improves the concept, but sending to OneNote allows you to get snippets or the whole page and make additional notes. It can be accomplished using any of the Browser to OneNote PowerToys, but I’ll focus on Flock (since [...]
I am a tablet pc user and a student, so over 90% of my OneNote “notes” are ink notes. I love OneNote and use it over Windows Journal for its superb organizing capabilities. However, OneNote does have its quirks. Here is a little history lesson. Windows Journal was supposed to be the killer app for [...]
This post comes straight from AdminID from OneNote Powertoys (using it with his permission of course). Daily Journal is a OneNote powertoy that automatically creates a new “journal” post for each day, thus allowing people to use OneNote as a personal diary, journal. If you use Daily Journal and the Stationary option in OneNote, then [...]
