I've been trying to export a notebook I was working with in the old 10.1 with lecture notes so that I can import it into my 2014. For some reason my 2014 Lecture notes can't see the notebook. If I browse to the directory with my files I see an Xml file and all the pages of the notebook in .png format. Why the he'll is it so hard to share notebooks between two Lectures notes??? :rage:

Oh and I've already exported and imported as a pdf but I set the background to black and used white to write. It exported with a white background.

I think someone said to sync it with your samsung account and then sync it back again.

It's easier exporting via zip than pdf since it preserves the file format. 1) First back up your files on the notebooks board by going to the menu then choosing "backup note books board" This may take a minute or two depending on how many notebooks you have..... it compresses your notebooks to a zip file 2) Go to the file directory for lecture notes and you should see the zip file saved usually "LectureNotesNotesbooksboard.zip" Copy this and transfer via sd card or dropbox to new note. Run Lecturenotes on the new note and go to menu and press "import notebook or folder" May take a few minutes to import all your files depending on how much you have.

@gina$zanboti: I am not entirely sure whether I understand what you wish to achieve.

If you wish to transfer your notebooks board from the old note to the new note and retire the old note, backup the notebooks board on the old note, transfer the file `LectureNotesNotebooksBoard.zip´ (the actual file name might contain a date stamp if you enabled that option) to the new note, and restore the notebooks board from that file.

If you wish to transfer your notebooks board from the old note to the new note and use both devices for note-taking, the best is to setup synchronization via a cloud service.
