Importing OneNote 2010 data file into OneNote 2013

I purchased a new computer with Microsoft Office including OneNote 2013.  I then copied all my data files over including all my OneNote 2010 notebooks contained in a folder titled OneNote Notebooks.  When i opened OneNote 2013 bu clicking File, then Open, it displayed an Open Notebook panel.  I was given a choice of opening from SkyDrive or "Open from other locations."  I clicked on Computer and then Recent Folders/OneNote Notebooks/My Documents >> OneNote Notebooks.

I got a Microsoft OneNote message "The notebook you are opening contains one or more of your other open notebooks. If yo proceed, those notebooks will no longer appear on the navigation bar.  You will still be able to access them as section groups within the notebook you are opening. Do you want to proceed?

What should i do to ideally be able to use them as i used them before but in OneNote 2013, both on my computer and in SkyDrive?

Hi,

In my case, I only move the folders of notebooks to the new client not the whole OneNote Notebooks. It worked for me.

And you can try exporting the notebooks to .onepkg files and then import them on the new client.

The above works for me too. Thanks for posting this thread.

Thanks, I exported the 2010 notebooks as *.onepkg files, and have moved them over to the new PC with One Note 2013.

How do I now "import" them...?

I do not see an option to open/import/etc...
