Frequently Asked Questions
Which account, file, or app should I use when I click the Search button on the left?
Click the Search button on the left. The available Send to OneNote behavior depends on Outlook and OneNote versions. Test one message first, then confirm whether each selected email creates a page or combines content.
What result should appear when I select a tag from the list, or type the tag name in the search box?
Verify sender, recipients, sent date, subject, body, attachments, and the destination notebook or section. Confirm the account type, product version, ownership, and permissions before assuming the control is unavailable.
What should I preserve before I open the pages where the tag appears (results will be highlighted)?
Not every Outlook voting or actionable-message workflow prevents a later change. The sender must use the capabilities supported by that message type or form. Keep the relevant backup or confirmation until you have checked the result.
Where should I verify the final result after I find tags and summary pages in OneNote for Mac?
Open the pages where the tag appears (results will be highlighted). Reopen the affected app or portal and confirm that the expected status persists.
