| Why doesn't my ON synch So, I created a new ON Notebook on my desktop PC (running Vista Ultimate). I said to share it with multiple computers. It created the notebook and shared the folder. I went to my laptop, also running Vista Ultimate (on an SBS domain controller, logged in as the same user), and opened ON, did a File,Open and browsed to my desktop and opened my new notebook. Everything came up fine. I added some stuff to the laptop and it never showed up on the desktop. I tried to synch and got an error that "some other process has the file locked". I closed ON on the desktop and tried again - no go. Any ideas what I'm doing wrong? Thanks, Lon __________________________________________________ _________ Lon Orenstein pinpointtools, llc Lon@pinpointtools.com Author of Outlook 2007 Business Contact Manager For Dummies Author of the eBook: Moving from ACT! to Business Contact Manager 800.238.0560 x6104 Toll Free (U.S. only) +1 214.905.0401 x6104 www.pinpointtools.com      |

| Re: Why doesn't my ON synch Patrick: Here are the steps I did to create the ON Notebook: I created a new ON Notebook on my desktop PC by clicking on Share, Create Shared Notebook, and gave it a name. I chose "I will use it on multiple computers". It created the notebook and shared the folder. I went to my laptop, also running Vista Ultimate (on an SBS domain controller, logged in as the same user), opened ON, did a File,Open and browsed to my Desktop PC and opened my newly created Notebook. Everything came up fine. I added some stuff to the laptop PC and it never showed up on the desktop PC. I tried to synch and got an error that "some other process has the file locked". I closed ON on the desktop PC and tried again - no go. Checking the folders using Windows Explorer, the OneNote Notebooks folder under \Users\Lon\Documents is shared as is the Lon's OneNote folder which is the name of the Notebook. I'm logged on to both PC's as the same user and I changed Everyone's permissions to Co-Owner. Hope that explains better, Thanks again for your support, Lon __________________________________________________ _________ Lon Orenstein pinpointtools, llc Lon@pinpointtools.com Author of Outlook 2007 Business Contact Manager For Dummies Author of the eBook: Moving from ACT! to Business Contact Manager 800.238.0560 x6104 Toll Free (U.S. only) +1 214.905.0401 x6104 www.pinpointtools.com "Patrick Schmid [MVP]" <pdschmid@nospam.mvps.org> wrote in message news:e%239QLQxmHHA.4848@TK2MSFTNGP05.phx.gbl... > You mean the notebook? > Did you actually share the folder in Windows? > > Patrick Schmid [OneNote MVP] > -------------- > http://pschmid.net > *** > Outlook 2007 Performance Update: http://pschmid.net/blog/2007/04/13/105 > Office 2007 RTM Issues: http://pschmid.net/blog/2006/11/13/80 > *** > Customize Office 2007: http://pschmid.net/office2007/customize > RibbonCustomizer Add-In: http://ribboncustomizer.com > OneNote 2007: http://pschmid.net/office2007/onenote > *** > Subscribe to my Office 2007 blog: http://pschmid.net/blog/feed > > > > > "Lon Orenstein" <Lon@pinpointtools.com> wrote in message > news:#A3MAFvmHHA.568@TK2MSFTNGP02.phx.gbl: > >> Thanks Patrick!

| Re: Why doesn't my ON synch Patrick: This is the first time I've tried to sync since being out of town and making changes on the laptop. When executing File, Sync, Notebook Sync Status on the laptop, it shows both of the shared Notebooks from the desktop accurately and it just keeps saying Waiting for Update. I put the radio button on "Sync automatically whenever there are changes".

| Re: Why doesn't my ON synch Patrick: I went out of town, made changes to the shared Notebook, and then returned and reconnected to the LAN and no sync is happening. Before I left, I made changes to the laptop's Notebook and the additions didn't show up on the desktop. What should I be expecting here? The "brochure says" I can make changes on the laptop and they're "instantly" synched to the desktop. Mine aren't being synched at all -- that's the problem! Am I being unclear on what's going on?

| Re: Why doesn't my ON synch Patrick: I disabled the OneCare firewalls on both the desktop and laptop. The laptop tries to sync and there are no errors, but the Progress shows Waiting for Update for each of the two Notebooks I originally created on the desktop PC. Another factoid: There is another Notebook I created on our SBS server that both the desktop PC and laptop connect to. I entered a new page on the desktop PC and the laptop PC showed it almost immediately. So, that says that each PC can connect to the SBS server's Notebook across the LAN and that OneNote is functioning properly -- right? I used the exact same procedure to create that Notebook as I did the ones on my desktop PC and it syncs fine and these two don't... Could this be related to a Vista to Vista sync problem? Again, I'm logged on to both desktop and laptop as the same domain user. What does the Waiting for Update message mean?

| Re: Why doesn't my ON synch Would it be possible for you to store all your notebooks on the server? I'd say that you are having some network issue and storing it on the server is a way around it. To figure out the Vista issue: If your find your way to the Vista Network and Sharing Center on both computers, then File Sharing and Network Discovery should both be on. Make sure that Password Protected Sharing is the same on both computers as well. I suggest to try it with password protected sharing on first. Also, the network type should be private or work and not public. Keep the firewalls off for this test.

| Re: Why doesn't my ON synch Thanks Patrick! File Sharing and Network Discovery are both On on both PC's. There is no option in my Network and Sharing Center on either PC for Password Protected Sharing. I noticed something in another post you made above where you said "Store all your notebooks on that computer in a shared folder (which is not under My Documents)." These two Notebooks on my desktop PC are stored here C:\Users\lon\Documents\OneNote Notebooks Could this be the problem?
