Loss of Section in OneNote

[Mac]

Have OneNote installed on Notebook and Desktop computer Sharing a Notebook on
a LAN hard drive. Frequently I have lost and entire section and sometimes
individual pages in the section. Sometimes I can find them in the backup
file. Any thoughts on why the sections disappear from the Notebook?

Could you pls let us know a bit more on your LAN setup?

If you go to the drive in windows explorer, do you see files named with
a series of letters and numbers or with a .onetemp extension? If you
rename the file and change the extension to .one, does that file contain
all of the notes from the missing section?

There have been reports of this behavior happening when OneNote tries to
optimize the files stored on a NAS device. If that is your situation,
check with the drive manufacturer to see if there's a firmware update
available - it might fix the problem.
