Copy OneNote Notebooks from One Account to Another

By using a shared folder on OneDrive, you can Copy an entire OneNote notebook from one user to another.

Here’s how:

1. Let’s call the user hosting the notebook OriginalUser, and the account we are going to copy to TargetUser
2. In OneDrive web app on the OriginalUser account, share a folder to TargetUser
3. Confirm you have access to the shared folder by logging in to the OneDrive web app for TargetUser. Select the folder and “Add to my OneDrive”
4. Now, back in the OneDrive web app for OriginalUser, select a Notebook and Copy it to the folder you shared with TargetUser. Wait for it to complete copying…
5. In the OneDrive web app for TargetUser, navigate to the shared folder and click to open the ‘copied’ Notebook in the OneNote web app
6. Wait for the opening process to complete (this may take a while)
7. Rename the Notebook on the TargetUser OneDrive web app
8. Move to desired, non-shared folder in the TargetUser OneDrive. You will receive this message, and you have to press “Move Anyway”
