I have been trying to use OneNote 2016 to make digital notes for when I'm reading ebooks. But I was unable to sync from my PC to my Android phone to iPad. Both of those devices could make changes and sync no problem, but my PC couldn't. It would just sit there and take forever to sync, and then just not.
I searched for this problem, and I'm not alone in this:

It seems to be a specific problem with One Note 2016 for the desktop that can't sync almost entirely. The advice was that if you can't wait for a fix, then downgrade to 2013 Office and use that instead. I tried that, and then everything was great. My PC would sync straight away: make changes, sync - no problem. All the desktop's changes then sync on my other devices, all good.
I'm very annoyed and shocked that OneNote 2016 has these unresolved problems. The latest and greatest shouldn't be rendered basically useless.
