I read that OneNote Beta 7 will sync both ways with the mobile version, from
PC to mobile device, or vice versa. I cannot get that to work, however.
PC-Windows XP Pro SP2, all the newest updates, and ActiveSync 4.2 (final).
PPC-WM5, MDA(T-Mobile USA)(HTC Wizard).
I downloaded the latest OneNote 7 Beta, and installed it to both the PC and
PPC. ActiveSync now shows OneNote Notes as one of the items to be
synchronized.
I have only been able to sync notes from the PPC to the PC, however. I have
not been able to get notes to sync from the PC to the PPC. (Which is how I
tend to use notes applications more--write them on the PC, take them with me
on the PPC.)
I created notes on the PC, in the notebook called OneNote Mobile Notes. When
I try to sync with the PPC, I even get the message "would you like to
replace, combine, etc.". I choose "replace notes on PPC with those of
desktop". It appears to sync, no error messages, etc. However, the notes
created on the PC never appear on the PPC.
Does OneNote Mobile 7 really support two-way sync? If not, it certainly
should!

Aloha MS,
Odd - it works fine for me. I'm going to guess that you didn't put your
notes under the "Notes from [your device]" section. If I recall correctly
it's not the entire notebook that syncs; only that section. You need to
put the pages you wish to sync to your PPC under that section.

Works for me too. I am making the additions in the device specific folder
under the One Note Mobile Notes section, though.
Do keep in mind that this is Beta software. I'm using an iMate K-Jam BTW,
another Wizard.

It works fine for me on a ppc-6700, but do note that the changes will be to
the items in the mobile note folder, not any that are copied over otherwise.
No doubt you understand this (since you are getting changes from the PPC
over), but I do not have any more information to help. Hate to sound so
inexact, but most of the time it seems that these kind of problems require a
re-installation of Active Sync on the PC to resolve.
Bear in mind that this is a beta. On the subject of OneNote Mobile, I hope
they do a true PPC version soon with ink support. It loses a lot of its
attractiveness without it.

That's being generous. I can't stand the Mobile version of OneNote 2007.
No ink support is a big one, but the text formatting is so limited, it's
often just gross to look at.
