I've been using OneNote for many years. There are many reasons why I love using OneNote for digital planning. I used paper planners before switching to a digital planner, and for me I found OneNote to be the most seamless transition.
First, a note on digital planning as a whole. I love using traditional planning methods on a digital platform, but one question I get asked a lot is, "can I be reminded of my tasks? Can I sync it with my digital calendars?" The short answer is "no"... but it's not that simple (check out Tip #9 in the video).
That being said, it's important to note that there are times where we need to have third-party apps like iCal, Calendly, and Google Calendar, but when we allow those third-party apps to take control of our schedule, we lose the ability to PLAN. I'm a strong believer in the power of having a primary and secondary calendar. If you put purpose into your planning, you will find success. The intention behind physically writing your plans and goals is part of what drives success.
In this video, learn my Top 12 Tips for OneNote, including how to:
Maximize your planning real estate
Create hyperlinks in OneNote
Use OneNote across multiple devices
Establish a hierarchy system for the organization
Navigate through your planner
Get reminders for tasks
& much more!
As always, we'd love to hear from you! If you have a OneNote tip or question, reach out to our team!

Brandon, these are spot on. I use the OneNote and MS Outlook tags frequently now. Huge time saver. Keep it up!!
Joe - Thanks for the comment. I am actually impressed how well it works.
Do you have a video link on outlook tags? I rely on outlook a lot and am starting to use OneNote and see solutions.
This is a great video! The tips on the onenote-outlook integration are worth their weight in gold! Much appreciated and God bless!
Glad to hear you liked the tips. I agree the task reminders, are huge for Windows power users.
OMG! Love this! All in one place literally. :D Thanks for the video!
You are welcome
This the best of your videos that I've seen - really useful tips, thank you!
Well I am going to take the win and say thanks! I do there there is a couple videos at are just as good. Glad it was worth your time to watch. Thanks!!!
That was great. The task integration stuff I've never seen before! Thanks heaps !
Thats awesome. Maybe I should retitle the video: 1 never seen tip before. :) Happy to hear the watch time was worth it.
Just love your planner, this tip are awesome
That's great to hear! Happy to bring you the tips.
Thank you for another great video Branden. Moving to OneNote last year and adopting the K2S planner has been probably the single best thing I did to increase productivity. I now manage work, school, personal life so much more effectively than before. I've known about and used hyperlinks to external files/website/media for school, but had either forgotten or never considered hyperlinking pages within and between notebooks in OneNote. This will open up some great possibilities.
Onenote is the worst note software ever, anyone with a common sense will stay far away from it, here is one example of how stupid and low it can go to:
"This page contains conflicting changes. Click here to show versions of the page with unmerged changes"
It never has done a proper job in synchronizing the notes and so it came up with this error message. But when you clicked into this error message, you get another one that says it would not be able to complete the synch because the other note has not been synched, what it is telling you is that it is not going to do the synch either way.
"Sorry, it looks like this page was added from another computer and hasn't synced yet."
I haven’t gotten those types of errors in over a year. Are you running a current version?
@@bodendorfer Yes it is the current up to date version and never had no reply from the ms. A check on the internet, it seems almost everyone is having this same problem.
@@wilsont1010 You know what else is in the internet? The resolution to the issue. Check your settings and learn how to use the software. Your unfamiliarity with how to use it doesn't make it it a bad product.
@@msand63If you can read, then read my reply properly, tons of people from Onenote have this same issue on the internet and there is no way out of this one, and they have switched. If you have the solution then post it. Otherwise it is a waste of time, people are no longer using Onenote, nobody will wait 5 days for the Onenote to synch up.
Hi Branden, planner looks good, will check it out in the shop. On the Outlook tasks, it’s a lot quicker to type the task into OneNote first, then create the outlook tag - it picks the text up for you in the task - you can change it if you like at that point.
Sure does!
Just starting this digital journey. I think this is the third time. :-) Way back in the day, I had an electronic "appointment" planner. This system looks a lot like the Franklin Covey System that I used for several years and loved. The problem with FC is, it wasn't with me all of the time. Carrying a leather notebook, while cool looking, isn't super practical. I am watching your training videos now. These are very informative. Thank you.
That great to hear. Yes we offer a lot of videos for training and will continue to introduce more. Traditional planning in a digital world has its advantages.
I can’t wait to use the productivity tips in my life! 💫 Keep rising to be who you want to be! 💫 #keeprising #risingtobe #aswerise #riser
Thanks for the comment! And I totally agree with you. #keeprising
let me know if you would ever like to be featured in our guest article. We have over 15,000 people we share articles with each week.
WoW! I'm impress! Very interesting!
Thanks. Was there one tip that you found most useful?
One Note on Microsoft Teams so far has been pretty hard to work with. When it works, it's nice, but it's usually slow and takes a long time to load. I've used it on both my MacBook and work issued PC. I think One Note works as a standalone with much more ease. So I'm curious about what's going on with the interface that's creating the slow down. Is it bloat?
I like hierarchies. I use them with all of my digital devices. My s/o thinks I'm insane, but it helps my thoughts. One tip that works the best for me is setting up most of my systems on the front end. It's extra work but everything else starts to pan out after the fact. I love it when I'm proactive.
One big issue with digital planning that you brought up is switching between different interfaces and devices. Overall, this is a great video and you have great points.
Thanks for the in depth comment here. I will be honest I can't speak to Microsoft Teams and OneNote. I have not really used them that function before. Generally I have my onenote open on my iPad and I share my screen with the group. That seems to work great. This whole working virtually is still a rather new thing in the term of everything.
Thank you for the tip, it’s exactly what I’ve been looking for. I’m currently using a digital planner, however, connected to GoodNotes. I love and use regularly OneNote, however, because this is for work on a secured exchange server, I’m perplexed on the connection of my iPad and exchange OneNote. I will call my Tech Support again. If I could get this connectivity, it would be worth the change to your OneNote planner for me as we move into 2023.
If you know how, I’m all ears… or in this case all eyes!
We do have a planner that works with goodnotes as well. But are you able to share notebooks with your work account. We have a lot of people whom will install the planner on their personal device / account and then share with their work account. This way if they leave their post they are able to take their planner and notes with them.
Hi, I love your teaching style! Great video. do you have a video for how to translate audio recording during a meeting in one more to text? Also, loved the look of your planner templates. Where can I find them? Thanks! Christina
Thanks. I do not have one but thanks for the comment, I will see how I can put that in a future planner. You can discover our planning system at www.key2successplanner.com
Great video!
Thanks.
Excellent tips
Glad you like them!
What is 3 to 5 Year Professional Builder? Is this a program that needs to be purchased each year? Looks fantastic!
Thank you
you are welcome
Okay so my OneNote app does not look like that and I'm using Windows 11. Is this because this is OneNote2016 and if so, how do I download it?
I really like your tips but unfortunately I cannot implement a lot of them due to not having the version you're using.
I have downloaded one note in S6 lite, but it has whole different look. Could you please suggest me how to download the version which you use? Ty
Very Good
Happy to hear you enjoyed the video. Was their a tip that stood out?
Hi Branden, When I click add page it adds blank page.. how to get page like your daily planner
I can see using this app with my note at work can help me plan and stay organized. I noted that it has to be initially downloaded onto a laptop but I use an iPad Pro as well and my current OneNote syncs between the two devices. Does this app automatically integrate into my one note. How do I make sure it show on both devices
Hello David, So yes the planner will sync across more than one device. You simply import the planner into onenote. We have instructions on how to do this, it takes only a few minutes. Once you import the notebook into OneNote you can make changes on either your laptop or iPad and they will sync between those devices.
I’m new to digital planning. With your system, if I input something on the calendar in month view will it populate into weekly and daily views? This is important for me.
So it's very important to understand if you want to be successful with planning that you don't look to automation to get your work done. People fail in life because they depend on others to do their work or believe that it will come to them. With planning it is no different using a digital planner you need to plan out your life, you can use tools like copy and paste to speed up that process from monthly weekly and daily pages. If you want to get into planning, know that you need to make that small investment in yourself.
I'm curious as to how you're onenote has a planner in it? I only see a blank page. Where do I find how to make it look like there's a real notebook on the page?
I have the same question.
You can get the planner on our website. brandenbodendorfer.com/onenote-digital-planners-shop/

What version is this?
OneNote iPad Side by Side Note Taking
ruclips.net/video/ZMgMd7qXkkQ/видео.html
outlook tasks is not there in new Onenote
Hi im new to one note and z fold how do you get the calander to show like in the video so you screen looks like a diary
Digital planning has always been hit or miss for me. Mostly because my methods may not always back up or became corrupt etc. Using trusted sites/apps/brands is a very important step.
Are you using more than one device that is synced? I have found with programs like OneNote and Goodnotes, that the local file on your primary device is pretty legit. One great thing with OneNote is that if you have a conflicting page you can review the versions and choose which one should be synced. I think as we roll over each year the devices and the note taking apps are become more of a staple. The thing is you have to have a device that you can have with you. The moment you are not available to make a note or schedule change, then you start to drift in the direction of not using it.
great video but adds ipad and no android references but at the start gives that impression
OneNote on desktop has all facilities. Which app ios/iPad or android is better for OneNote for tablet
At this time, the iOS app on the iPad offers more functions than the Android, including the copy link to page.
Dont assume we all know where to find the cammand. You mentioned to go to the ribbon and click new window. I have been looking for the command new window and can not find it. Looks like you have setup a new window shortcut. But U dd not guide us as to where it is and under which tab
Thanks for asking the question. We find that wit we repeat ourselves from one video to the next. Please reference this video on how to set up. Setting Up OneNote For Note Taking | Windows OneNote Users

Anyone know where to get his templates?

MINE DOES NOT HAVE TABS ACROSS LIKE YOURS. HOW DO YOU DO THAT?
Mine too. I am using it on a MacBook Air AMD iPad and have searched high and low for these tabs across the top with no success
@@davidcohen2631 I'm using microsoft 365 and my tabs are all down the side like Brandon's Ipad. I wonder if the tabs are in onenote 16?
Cheese curds um nope. Onenote is the best I love it
You're not a fan of cheese curds? Have you ever had a Wisconsin Deep Fried Curd before? Still love ya either way.
@@bodendorfer I tried before Im not a fan of textured cheese. No Mozzarella, maybe Swiss
I am having a ball using your system still would like a calendar day with 24 hours ---Hint
still using the Samsung Z fold 3
Adding multiple collection points for your events simply clutters your life and increases the chances that something will get missed.
Pick ONE tool to manage your time and stick with it.
The only problem with OneNote is that they keep changing platforms which cause you to lose everything! First SkyDrive then OneDrive, each time everything gone! Syncing is also always an issue. Though I loved OneNote, I had to stop using it. It is just too undependable!
Appreciate your tips but the most important one do not work in Apple eco system. Too bad. It is valuable to try your planner when you are only in Apple ecosysrem
I am not really sure what you mean by this comment. The planner is a notebook in onenote that works on both windows and Apple and even andriod for that matter. Please let me know if you have a question.
