Microsoft One Note & Dropbox
I just love to use Microsoft One Note for any information I need to keep. It is easy to use, has tons of features, from simple to advanced.
In my One notes I keep all the needed information I want to take with to to the office, on my notebook and my home computer.
Using Dropbox I synchronize my one notes between all my computers and locations. Dropbox’s free account lets you synchronize 2 GB between all the computers you have it installed and gives you a web interface to get a file quickly without installing the client. Dropbox has clients for all popular platforms (Windows, Linux and Mac)
What is your system to synchronize and manage your information?

This is the exact system I use. But Dropbox is also used for Firefox profile, CuteFTP site, and AutoHotkey script sync and keeping all my crap in multiple places and identical.
Dropbox is spectacular.
Yeah, I do synchronize some other stuff as well ;-)
They did a great job with Dropbox!
I am curious–a while back i tried to do this same thing using Foldershare which is a file syncing app but without the web access feature–the PCs sync when they are all ON simultaneously.
The problem I ran into with Onenote sync on Foldershare was that for some reason duplicate note sections would get created all over the place, even though I never left onenote open on more than 1 computer at a time.
Does this problem occur with Dropbox? Have you had any problems with Onenote sync using dropbox? Thanks.

Hi Vatsal.
It did happen once for me, but after I deleted the extra file (the duplicate) it never happened again…
