Importing from OneNote Mobile

Hi,

How do you import notes from OneNote Mobile? Seems not to be working with
OneNote 2003.
Any suggestions are welcomed.

Thank u.

I'm not sure it will work with OneNote 2003 - it's a OneNote 2007 feature.
I presume you installed it from a OneNote 2007 machine and now want to sync
with a OneNote 2003 machine? ActiveSync would have to know to sync it and I
don't think it will without ON2007.

Hi Ben,

Exactly it's the case - I have two PC's (home and office) and one
smartphone. Theoretically OneNote 2003 (SP2) is capable of importing
notes/files from a PDA (one-way operation but it's perfectly all right with
me). It syncs with my smartphone but only files from My Documents are
transferred (no notes from OneNote Mobile).
I am looking for a solution since I would rather buy no upgrade to OneNote
2003. After all, the change is minor and does not compare to great
improvements in Word or Excel. It's a pity that Microsoft didn't think that
there are people using both versions in different locations. Mobile devices
are usually on the move :-)
Any suggestions or hints would be very welcomed.

BTW – in the Polish edition of OneNote 2007 (BOX) there’s a possibility of
installing OneNote Mobile but apparently MS guys forgot to include the cab
needed, oddly indeed.

Regards.

jam3 -

The problem is that OneNote 2003 didn't have an import/export API and
OneNote Mobile allows you to sync your notes two ways which OneNote Mobile
supports. If you have OneNote 2003 and just want to import notes I would
not use OneNote Mobile and instead just use Pocket Notes and then import
those with ON2003 (but it wouldn't work with ON2007).

Hello again,

This is called progress - two incompatible ways of note taking. Again
bitter-sweet ideas from Microsoft.
There are many applications called Pocket Notes. Which one is the right one?
The one that works with Windows Mobile 5.0 for Smartphones and works with
OneNote 11 or Outlook Notes?
Thanks for the tips and explanation.

Regards
