Galaxy Tab A + OneNote problems
Hi guys, this is the first time I have posted and hoping to get some help. I purchased a Galaxy Tab A while at home and am currently back at med school. I got the tab so that I could replace huge mounds of notes with a simple device carrying all of them. I use a lenovo windows 8.1 computer. I cannot upgrade to 10 until our exam software is compatible with it. Now that you know the tools I am using I have two questions:
First, when taking notes on the pdf's I have loaded into OneNote on my tablet, if I accidentally tap on the screen it immediately redirects me to the beginning of the pdf. Sometimes this is 50-60 pages away from where I was trying to take notes and the class is moving but I have to scroll back to where I was as quickly as possible but sometimes miss information because of this. Does anybody know why this happens or what I can do, other than be careful not to tap the screen? This is also odd that it does this considering its made to be able to be touched.
Secondly, the only I have found to import pdf's that will sync to OneNote so that I can open them is to open the app on my computer --> create a "page" --> click the option to "insert printout from pdf". This has to be done one-by-one which takes forever. Is there a better way to insert whole folders that can be accessed in the same organized manner? If so, how is this done? I guess a final kind of continuation is to ask where do all of the files that I have edited in class go to? They sync to my onenote and I can later see all my marks from class, but where are the files if I want to keep them on a drive?
Thank you for any help you can provide, or if you can point me in a good direction. I tried to chat online with Microsoft who said they weren't familiar with the Android software and couldn't help, and Samsung basically said the opposite haha. Thanks again.
