OneNote Requires Tablet PC Edition 2005 with Service Pack 2, what is that?

  • Artikel

We have an internal email distribution list where people can ask questions to the OneNote product team and over the past months there have been a few emails about this error:

OneNote requires Microsoft Windows Tablet PC Edition 2005 with Service Pack 2 in order for inking functions to work properly. You can install Service Pack 2 from the Windows product pages on the Microsoft Web site.

When this occurs this is just because of an unregistered DLL and you can fix it by doing the following:

  1. open up a command prompt (on Vista make sure it is an elevated command prompt)
  2. cd "%ProgramFiles%\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\Ink"
  3. "regsvr32 /s inkobj.dll"
  4. Close and restart OneNote

This should fix the problem you are having. Ideally you should never see this but I am hoping that by blogging this if you search on Windows Live or Google you will see this link and you can fix your problem : )

    Daniel, You may have heard about my issues with inking on my desktop. I have not gotten this same exact error that you are talking about, however, my inking is just problematic on a desktop.  So, I tried your dll fix, but, my command prompt says "The system cannot find the path specified" when I run: "regsvr32 /s inkobj.dll" inkobj.dll is in the folder, no problem.  I don't do too much in command with Windows (more with unix), so, when I see /s I start thinking, "why aren't you s, and why did we put a directory in root named s?"  All of this is moot...just my rambles.  Why is the path not found? any thoughts? erik

    No you need to open a command shell/cmd.exe/dos prompt to run that command from that folder.  The /s I believe means silent.  To learn more about command lines please read this: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Command_line

    Daniel, Unfortunately your solution with registering that dll didn't fix the error. I found also the article KB900722 and I applied it but the error is still persistent. In EventViewer there is no error. I registered this problem to Microsoft support last week. For the moment no answer and my boss is a little desperated because he cannot use the pen tool in OneNote 2007. He is relying on this OneNote during the meetings.

    I am not aware of any other fixes other than what I described above.  If you find something please let me know.  Otherwise I am sure support will be able to help you better.

    I just started having this problem last week, and I tried your fix, and it still gives me the same error. At first I thought it was because the InkObj.dll file wasn't in the folder, but even after downloading the file and putting it there I still have an issue. Have you found any other fixes?

    Hi all. I know this is an old topic bu i want to share this with people since I have this problem myself. The thing is, under ProgramFilesCommon FilesMicrosoft SharedInk I do have inkobj.dll. I looked under c:windowssystem32 and guess what... there's an inkobj.dll there too... so i renamed the one in system32 to inkobjbackup.dll, copied the one from program files and... works 50% in one note 2007. I can select all pens and write 2/3 lines then it stops working. I suspect we need an updated inkobj.dll. If anyone finds any thing regarding this, please share :) regards, tiago
