Navigate to /profile/ and click on 'Manage how you sign in to Microsoft'. What finally worked for me was to create an outlook address. Now if you use a gmail account like I did, the tasks get only stored locally, so To-Do doesn't see them. So it seems, that the tasks are hosted on an exchange server, where also the emails are hosted.

I'll try to summarize the solution and the steps to it, but maybe just read the thread for a better understanding. Thank you for any comment in advance.īig shout out to u/tsqr who wrote detailed responses for a week and kept trying to help me understand and managed to solve the problem. Everything I read says that it gets synced to ToDo, but outlook just wrote "(On this computer only)" next to my tasks and that was that.Now I have stumbled across Microsoft Flow, but have no idea how to set that up.Īny help would be greatly appreciated. So far I've tried to use the outlook task feature, had to set up outlook just for that. But it bothers me, that I can't set due dates on my tasks or receive notifications.Recently I learned about Microsoft ToDo and it seems really neat, if only I could figure out how to mark things in my notes as tasks, that get send there.I mean surely there has a way to make this two apps from the same company work together, right? For example, you can insert meeting details and send notes in an email message.I've been using OneNote to keep track of my tasks, using a simple list with check boxes. OneNote and Outlook work together in other ways too. The tag (flag) is removed from OneNote and the task remains in Outlook. Right-click the tag in your notes, and choose Remove Tag. To keep the task in Outlook and remove the flag from OneNote: The text remains in OneNote and the task is removed from Outlook. Right-click the tag in your notes, and choose Deleted Outlook Task. You’ve got two choices: Delete the task from Outlook, which also removes the tag (flag) from OneNote (the text will still be in your OneNote notes) or Remove the tag from OneNote and keep the task in Outlook. If you decide you don’t need a task, you can remove it. If you'd like to add the task back into Outlook, check the box again.

If you check the task as complete in OneNote, it gets marked as complete in Outlook and is removed from your tasks list. When you mark a task as complete in Outlook, the task is marked as complete in OneNote when Outlook and OneNote sync.
