I keep getting an error message whenever I use onenote that says "your system has run out of application memory". It pops up after a couple minutes and has been going on for about a week now. Prior to this it had never happened. this is extremely frustrating because i need to use onenote for medical school. has anybody else had this issue and how do i fix it? i dont know if it has something to do with the new apple update? Plzzzzz help!!

OneNote engineer here

It's hard to give you an exact date because of the staggered way in which we rollout Office Updates, but I can tell you that an improvement had been checked in.. and its a matter of releasing the update that should reach customer before end of year.

    December 12th today.

    I received a message saying an update was available. I should've known it wasn't going to fix this problem when it updated in less than 20 seconds.

    OneNote still running 20+GB on my computer. thanks for the "update"... Microsoft.

    :(

    Mine seems to be better, sometimes using up to 25ish GB randomly but mostly down to 200-400MB.

    For the most part, I can upload large pdf files and move slides around without hearing my computer complaining. I haven't used it a ton since yesterday, but we'll see!
