OneNote is not responding to typing

I have this same problem. Version 15.46 installed on a Mac, also on iPhone and iPad and shared with some items shared with my wife. Seems overtime the system sleeps, when I wake it up and try to edit a note, nothing. I can move the cursor, but can not add or delete text.

Make that Version 15.36. Also using MacOS Sierra 10.12.6.

I'm on version 15.36 (macOS 10.12.6)... I originally posted on another thread the following..

I still get the issue about 4 or 5 times a day. I do find that just closing the OneNote window (⌘W) restores typing ability when restored.  It seems to happen after a sync. I've noticed it most when adding a note or page or adding a row to a table but it happens.  I've tried all the basic troubleshooting steps. Changing Notebooks, pages and notes.

Note:

I tried pasting onto a page when the keyboard wasn't typing text and it allowed me to paste it also allow me to copy and it allows me to Undo all using keyboard combinations. 

I was also able to add a table, delete a column and add a row but could not add data to the table, nor could I delete it (using delete key). I was able to highlight the table and cut ⌘X to remove it. 

Also keyboard navigation keys (Up, Down, Left, Right) arrows work as well. 

The Space and TAB Keys are considered text (even within tables) and is also suppressed. 

So it seems it's not a keyboard thing, it's not a note being locked for edits thing (clipboard works). 

=================================

I get the same issue. It's random but seems to occur during and right after a sync (it syncs all the time) but it's inconsistent. 

OneNote Ver. 15.34 (170515) Office 356 Family 2016 (all updates applied)

OS Ver. MacOS 10.12.5 Sierra (all updates applied) 

It happens randomly in all notebooks (about 2 to 4 times a day average)

Haven't seen it occur on any other version of OneNote (I have OneNote on Win7, Win10, iPhone and iPad) 

I use it most on the Mac and occasionally on devices. 

When this occurs the insertion point does not progress but continues to blink at the current position and key strokes are ignored. I have confirmed it is not a keyboard issue. They keyboard works in all other apps.  I've tried hitting esc, and waiting until well after sync had finished. When stuck I've even tried to move to a different note and type there. same affect on all notes until OneNote is reset via an App Quit and Restart. 

This is a new development.  I looked in system information and I see that the latest version of OneNote was installed on 5/21/17.  I did not notice the problem before then.  I'm not going to install an earlier version to test. This is Microsoft's job to track down and remediate bugs. I'm just bringing it to your attention and giving as much detail as possible.

As an FYI, it looks like this is still repro'ing with the current Mac build, 15.36.

We are investigating this further.

Thanks,
