Microphone not showing up

Hi,

Normally, the issue you're getting with the microphone not showing up is caused by compatibility issues or that there are drivers that are not up to date. To isolate your concern, we'd like to know if your microphone was already enabled. To check this, follow
the steps listed below:

• Right-click on the volume icon and select Recording devices.
  
• Right-click on an empty space inside the window and select, Show disconnected devices and
  Show disabled devices.
  
• Right-click on Microphone and select Properties and make sure that the microphone is enabled.
  
• Check if the other microphone that you are using is set as default.

Feel free to post back for an update and let us know if you need more help.

 

OneNote app and desktop and quick notes


Thanks. That successfully puts a section (a tab) called Quick Notes into the chosen notebook. And new scribbles made after clicking the stylus do go into that section. But there is still an entry at the very bottom of the Notebooks drop down in the desktop version called Quick Notes, and clicking that still brings up the old collection of notes from I know not where, and not the quick notes.

I managed to "delete" the old collection of notes. But still the app goes to one Quick Notes notesbook but the Quick Notes entry at the bottom of the desktop's list of notebooks goes to a different, now empty "Quick Notes".
