OneNote copy & paste problem

My OneNote (on my Macbook) keeps becoming unresponsive whenever I try to paste information from another document like Word. It started this morning, and is only on the application itself. (It works fine on the online version, but I prefer to use the actual application.) It lets me copy and paste info from OneNote, but not from anywhere else.

I did update it a day or two ago, from the prompt of auto-updates.

Small problem, but really frustrating. Any help will be appreciated.
