The syncing between  OneNote ap on my Surface tablet and OneNote 2010 has stopped working and I'm receiving the above error code.  From what I can ascertain if I create a page in OneNote 2010 it will sync with OneDrive and the OneNote ap.  If I create a page in the OneNote ap, it will sync with OneDrive but not with OneNote 2010.  Once the syncing error occurs then the syncing between OneNote 2010 and OneDrive also stops and the notebook no longer syncs.  I've tried moving the pages from one section to another within the Notebook but problem is still there. It seems that the notebook becomes corrupt.

    I had the identical issue as PaulKougias.  (Error code: 0xE000003D)

    I believe the issue occurred for me on April 7th? Might have occurred a couple days sooner?  April 7th is when I noticed it.

    I edit the Notebook on OneNote 2010 on my Desktop computer.  I share the Notebook with a colleague, who edits it using Onenote Online (Onedrive?). 

    The last activity I remember was I had it open on my Desktop computer and my colleague had it open on his Desktop computer, using OneNote Online and was making edits; we both had the same notebook page open.
