Lost side notes
Chuck Billow 11/29/2008 8:34:01 AM
I just started using OneNote, and I've lost a whole boat-load of Side Notes
that were screen clippings. I found them all once tonight, but now, if I go
through every notebook, every tab, they are not there.

I never categorized or set up any file for them -- that was next on the
list. But I can't file something I cannot find!

I've searched by words I thought were in some of the notes...nothing.

How could they just "disappear!?

Regards,
Chuck Billow

Screen-captures per default are stored in the notebook "Unfiled Notes".
Is nothing in there?

It may be that the automatic OCR did not correctly "translate" the word
in the images.

a) If you changed location where the "Unfiled Notes are stored.
Check in "Tools |Options|Save"

b) If you deleted the "Unfiled Notes" by deleting the file "unfiled
notes.one"
