If you really want to preserve all your tags when migrating from Evernote to OneNote, you can migrate using a third-party tool called Evernote2Onenote instead. This is a limitation of Microsoft’s OneNote Importer tool.įor more information about tags in OneNote, see Microsoft’s support articles about applying a tag to a note and searching for tagged notes. However, only one of those tags was converted into a section in the notebook (the “article ideas” tab).

Notice in the example below that there are two tags for the current note, “article ideas” and “htg”. On the Open Notebook screen, click on a notebook in the My Notebooks list to open it. If you chose to import your Evernote data from a file, another screen displays. To do that, click the “Import a file instead” link. If you’ve backed up your Evernote data to an ENEX file, you can import the data from that file instead. To only import certain notebooks, either uncheck the ones you don’t want to import, or uncheck the “Evernote Notebooks” box to unselect all the notebooks and then check the boxes for the notebooks you do want to import. By default, the “Evernote Notebooks” box is checked and all the notebooks found on your computer are checked. Be sure that all your latest notes are completely synced. If you have the desktop version of Evernote installed, the OneNote Importer will find the notebooks stored locally on your computer. There are two ways to import your Evernote content into OneNote. On the welcome screen, check the “I accept the terms of this agreement” box and click “Get started”.
