Each downloaded notebook is saved to your hard drive in Zip file format. If you want to later import a downloaded notebook, you’ll need to first unzip its notebook folder from the Zip file, and then import the folder to OneNote Online.
To import a notebook to OneNote that you’ve previously downloaded, do the following:
- Unzip the folder found in the file you previously downloaded. This unzipped folder is your notebook folder.
- In MICROSOFT EDGE or Google Chrome Web browser, go to the OneNote Notebook Importer. >>>CLICK THIS LINK<<
- This will take you outside our website to Microsoft’s website. It will prompt you to login or create a Microsoft account. Once you log in it will direct you to a new screen to import notebook. Proceed to step 3.
Tip: Importing notebooks is not currently supported in Windows Internet Explorer or Safari. We recommend using Google Chrome or Microsoft Edge. As of June 2020, customers using Microsoft Edge have stated that the installation process was seamless and relatively quick compared to Google Chrome.

- On the screen that opens, click Import.
- On your computer, navigate to the location of your notebook folder (see Step 1), click to select it, and then click Open to import it.
- Please leave the browser window open and do not navigate away from the page. The upload requires an active connect to the OneNote server. Microsoft does not provide an upload status window. To help support the time it should take to upload we have provided this cheat sheet based on your upload speed. If you are unsure of your upload speed, visit www.speedtest.net, prior to starting the upload process.

OneNote doesn’t recognize the notebook I’m trying to import
If OneNote rejects a notebook file that you’re trying to import, it’s likely that you’re trying to upload the original Zip file that was created when you previously downloaded the notebook. To solve this issue, double-click to open the original Zip file, and then extract (copy) the notebook folder from the Zip file to any location on your hard drive (for example, the desktop). When the notebook folder has been successfully saved outside of its Zip file, you can import the folder into OneNote.
Once you have completed the installation on your personal computer and want to open the notebook on your mobile devices, follow these steps.
1. Open your OneNote application
2. Navigate to your Notebooks tab
3. Click on “more notebooks”
4. Open the planner listed under “recent”
