OneNote pasting text issue
Hello, I have tried to search the web for this problem, I have sent reports to Apple and Microsoft, and for the life of me I can not figure out why this keeps happening, I am trying to take notes for school and I need to figure out this issue ASAP. Basically, almost every time I try to paste text into a page in OneNote, whether taken from a .pdf or from the web, a prompt shows up that says "Please Wait" and the app just hangs and eventually fails to respond, forcing me to force quit every time. The last time this happened I restarted my computer and it worked the first time I pasted text from email into a note, creating a new table for the text. The next few times I tried to paste text from a .pdf the app crashed without fail. Any help with this would be much appreciated. I use OneNote because it allows you to record audio while you take notes and conveniently marks the time so you can skip to that part in the audio next to the note you took. If there is a better application that does this I'm all ears. Thank you.
