Hi All,

I've been having trouble with OneNote recently.  Some of the usual options are greyed out or disabled. I cannot execute copy/paste/cut commands through keyboard.  Quit OneNote option is also greyed out.

What could be the problem here? Below is a screenshot. Hope you can help. Thanks much.

Create anew user profile on the Mac and check if the issue persists.

    Thanks! I got it working by creating a new user profile. It seems my user profile is "corrupted" according to the link.
