Hello, I have recently downloaded the Microsoft OneNote free app from the app store. I set the application to english, and thus far everything is fine. However, I noticed that when I start tryping in class the language is automatically set to French. I then change the language to english US and the spell-checker program follows, however after one or two sentences the spell-check automatically reverts back to french. I've tried contacting microsoft office support, microsoft live chat, apple live chat, but no one has found a solution. The spell check program just keeps reverting to french even if I select the entire document and put english US. I've tried to make it the default but it seems OneNote doesn't take a universal default spell-check language.
I am using OSX Mavericks on a macbook air, it is a french computer with a french keyboard, furthermore office for mac 2011 is in french (don't know if it is related or not). Please help, how can I set the spell check program to english US as a default and permanent option? Hello guys, first off thanks for answering and the suggestions were pretty good. Tom, that does indeed 'solve' the issue however I am not really able to type in this manner.
I also have onenote on my desktop that has a US keyboard and no problems their either. Giorgiovlb, I cannot seem to find that 'automatically switch to a documents input source' option but that should indeed resolve my issue as it seems that onenote keeps reverting to french since I have an azerty keyboard. Please let me know where else I could deselect that option because I can't seem to find it! Thanks to both! I'm sure well find a solution soon.

KingKongRumbles, Needs improvements The first week of opening this on your Macbook or Apple device (if you previously owned this on PC, or even a different older Apple device) may cause sync errors and crashes when starting to move larger files above 30MB.
It will also save time after the calibration, but for older generations (prior to 1980) or the executive white male types with little patience, it will make your employees and/or yourself miserable during that time to put to use at work. For newer millenial generations inundated with files, this will work well. Specifically, if you are operating with 20+ or more files either in work or school for commonly complex procedures (such as billing for Medicare with 20 different types of products and/or 500 codes with unique details for each to deal with) or a master program with 2 years of notes to keep organized for reference, this is a great tool to use to click between the files and actually read them again quickly (the alternative is all in MS Word documents that need at least 10 seconds to load between each one). If you have a set of files such as myself at 300 files, you will benefit from this ultra-organization tool.
The improvements needed include more reliable syncing, and making load times be as fast as possible per each opening of the app on MacBook or Apple device (iPad and iPhone). Also, making the MS Word tools for making grids, or bringing in an Excel file too, would be nice. The PDF import prints are extremely useful.

Ubercorner22, Powerful Note taker, annoying to have to “reopen” notebooks every time you’ve been away.
Takes some time to build up a workflow, but once you do it’s miles ahead of almost every other note taker. Only exception is Notability, which I think has a little bit better handwriting capability, but not nearly the organizational ability that OneNote has. If you want to be able to organize your notes into more than just one tier of folders, then you have to move to OneNote. The organization is way better than any of the other apps out there, and there’s way more support on the backend as this is synced through Microsoft’s OneDrive cloud, so you know that it has the support of a company that’s not going anywhere. The only annoyance I have with it, and the reason it’s 4 stars and not 5, is that I have to “Open” all of my notebooks again on each device if I haven’t used OneNote on it for more than a few days. I don’t know if this is to simplify syncing issues between devices and save space on each device, but I would rather there was an option to keep notebooks on a device and keep them synced. That way if I want to start taking notes right away, I don’t have to keep throwing all of my impromptu notes into whichever notebook is the most synced and then move it later.
I use this exclusively on iOS/MacOS devices, so maybe there’s some compatibility issue built in by Apple to handicap Microsoft’s apps just a little bit, or vice-a-versa. Ubercorner22, Powerful Note taker, annoying to have to “reopen” notebooks every time you’ve been away.

Rickandellen, Hardly use Word anymore - and I don’t lose my notes! Its like carrying a giant notebook around that has all your important papers - but having it weigh virtually nothing (because it is electronic).
Love the way you can organize work and personal business in the same place. Personal business in one Notebook and Work in a separate Notebook - each with as many sub-topics and sub-sub topics as you want.
In addition, you can record conversations, meetings, or speeches (keeping them on a page with other notes). Love too, the ability to search across all your notes (including audio files!) for keywords. You can also limit your search to smaller sub parts. The only reason I don’t give it 5 stars is the lack of provision to sort your papers within a section by date.
This has been so for a LONG time and I’ve seen LOTS of complaints about it. Seems so basic, obvious and (to a non-programmer) easy that I just can’t understand why they have not added it. Wish too, that they would add more formatting features of Word. Oh - and for some odd - very frustrating - reason, whenever I print a page from OneNote it does NOT look exactly like it does on the screen. Margins are particularly maddening and print size is nearly always horribly large. I have to either cut and paste into Word, be content with large print and waste of ink/paper, or reduce the font size in OneNote (about 4 sizes making it difficult to read) and then print.
