I like to copy the content of a class notebook I used last year. The notebook is not listed in the copy from existing notebook. How do I copy content from an existing notebook when it is not listed???

    Hi @Johannes Kingma

    Thank you for posting your question in the Microsoft Q&A forum. 

    Based on my research, a Class Notebook might not appear in the Teams copy dialog if you're not the owner or its permissions have changed, if it's stored outside the Class Team’s SharePoint (like in OneDrive or another group), if it was moved, renamed, or deleted, or if it's closed in OneNote. Additionally, tenant or policy restrictions may block access if the notebook belongs to another organization.  

    If possible, try locating the notebook directly in your OneDrive? Class Notebooks are usually stored in the class folder there. Could you please check whether you can see the notebook in your OneDrive? If it’s visible, try opening it in OneNote for the web or OneNote desktop, and see if you're able to manually copy the content. Kindly let me know the result so I can assist you further. 

    Please understand that our initial response may not always resolve the issue or meet your expectations immediately. However, with your collaboration and any additional details you can provide, I’ll do my best to guide you toward the most suitable solution for your situation.
