Microsoft OneNote 2013 for Windows

What's new in Microsoft OneNote 2013?

OneNote is a digital notebook for capturing, storing, and sharing all kinds of information. The first thing you’ll see when you open OneNote 2013 is a fresh, clean look that lets you focus on your thoughts and ideas instead of the interface. Full integration with the cloud means you can free your files from your computer’s hard drive so your notes and information are saved and searchable wherever you go — on nearly any mobile device, tablet, or browser.

Go and your notes go with you
On your devices. Wherever you go, there they are. Your notes are always available when you use OneNote Mobile apps on Windows Phone, iOS, and Android phones. Or, if you’re using a browser, just open the OneNote Web App.
The new OneNote. Draw, type, click, or swipe—OneNote has been reimagined for Windows 8. If you participate in the Windows 8 Release Preview, you can preview OneNote MX through the Windows Store. Find out more at the Windows 8 Release Preview site.
In sync. OneNote syncs with SkyDrive and SharePoint,* so your notes are always up to date on all your devices—automatically saved and searchable in the OneNote apps. Just sign in to find them—no need to use thumb drives or email them to yourself.
*Internet connection required; must be signed in with a Microsoft account (SkyDrive) or a Microsoft Online Services ID (SharePoint).

Capture all the info you want and need
Your go-to notebook. No need to leave out any useful ideas. Gather typed and handwritten notes, links, web pages, sketches, and videos and other media and assemble it in one handy place.
Embed files. Insert pictures, documents, videos, and more right into your notes, so all of the info you need is just a click away. If you insert an Excel spreadsheet, you’ll get a preview of charts and diagrams right next to your notes. When you update the Excel file, your preview is automatically updated too.
Inking. Enjoy the freedom to take notes your way. Be creative with Inking—smoothly draw, erase, and edit with your finger, stylus, or mouse. If you’d rather write than type, OneNote can convert your handwriting into text.
Tables. Explore tables and charts. Now you can make your own table headers and quickly move rows and columns. If you want to convert a table in your notes to a chart or to an Excel spreadsheet to do advanced calculation, all it takes is one click.

Find whatever you need fast and share it all with ease
Search. It’s easy to search your notes and files for anything you’ve captured—a particular term in a note, words in a picture, or a title of a file. Type a keyword or phrase and OneNote displays where you can find it. All you have to do to get to it is click it.
Auto-save. OneNote saves automatically all your content as you go—so you can spend all your time gathering, assembling, and editing your notes to spark that big idea. If you want a separate copy, just export your entire notebook, a section, or a page.
Simplified sharing. Share your notes with confidence. Your notes are saved online on SkyDrive or SharePoint by default*, so you can send your friends a single link to the same file and be sure that you’re all viewing the latest version.
*Internet connection required; must be signed in with a Microsoft account (SkyDrive) or a Microsoft Online Services ID (SharePoint).
