OneNote deleted my files!! :'(

[sos710m]

I opened Office this morning and it surprised me with an automatic deletion of all my notes. They are missing from Skydrive and the app. I'm furious and I don't know what to do. I can't figure out a way to recover them.

What the ****! One note just deleted all my notes, my word/excel/PowerPoint documents are still there, but all the notes are gone! I was moving my notes from EverNote and tried to deleted one of the pre-installed noted, and BAM it killed all my notes. What a ****ty ****ty bug!

Ok, notes are not being saved to SkyDrive? Ok, guess Office's OneNote doesn't support saving to SkyDrive, guess it's back to EverNote.

Ok, the entire SkyDrive MS office sync is a big failure. It saves non notes to skydrive, but if you delete it from your skydrive account, it's still on your phone when you open the Office app. And before you ask, no, I'm not saving it locally on my phone, it's saving to my skydrive.

Got my notes back. *whew* On PC, log into SkyDrive, Go into the Documents folder. There will be a note that says "Personal (Web)". On the right side of the screen you will see Unified Notes section. That will have all your notes. Click on one of the notes. Close it out, then check your phone again.

I didn't ask them to "unify" my notes. I guess this is just a feature to keep from having 1000's of notes all over the place.

Thanks, I will look there. I looked at the general folders and stuff. All my lists for Christmas were there :-/ if they are gone, so is a couple hours of planning.
