Lost all my notes - how can I get them back

So after getting frustrated with my notes duplicating on my mac (and only on mac) I searched on here to get it to stop and came across this solution:
entering 'rm -rf ~/Library/Containers/com.apple.Notes.' into terminal - I tried this and it didn't work, the second time I did it, I accidentally left of the full stop at the end and that made the duplicating stop, but it also got rid of all my notes.
Is there a way I can get my notes back via terminal? (and not by using time machine etc)
Thanks in advance

If they were not on the cloud, then no, there is no way back from that without a backup or file recovery software.
You deleted the folder that holds all the notes. Remove (rm) deletes the files immediately.

Thanks, but I checked iCloud and it has none of them.
If it backed up to my laptop, that died and I just got the new computer. The one that's crashed won't even boot, so there's no way to even tell if it was syncing the contacts along with all the phone photos. Literally happened at the same time - it was because I had the new computer that I was finally able to pull the photos off the phone and make room for the upgrade. It had refused to upgrade for lack of space for some time.
I had thought it was set to sync to iCloud but it vanished from BOTH my phone and the cloud. That's why I'm so angry about it.

ive recentley restored my iphone abd lost all my music how can i get them back without paying for them again

Why did you restore without transferring your music to your computer?
If you are in the U.S., then you can use the newly released beta version of the cloud to get your music.

I updated my ipod touch 4th gen to ios 5 and lost all my photos. how can i get it back? i'm using windows 7. help please? thanks!

This was the scenario:
The first time I updated, it was only my music that was lost.
When I got my music back, I lost my apps.
When I got my apps back, my contacts, notes and photos were lost.
Now I got back everything except for my photos.
(Yes, I restored from backup several times since the first update.)
Do you think if I try restoring from back up, my photos that were taken from my ipod will be restored finally?
Thank you.

Have you tried restarting or resetting your iPad?
Restart: Press On/Off button until the Slide to Power Off slider appears, select Slide to Power Off and, after the iPad shuts down, then press the On/Off button until the Apple logo appears.
Reset: Press the Home and On/Off buttons at the same time and hold them until the Apple logo appears (about 10 seconds). Ignore the "Slide to power off"

You calendar info should also be mirrored on your computer. Use the option to replace all events on the iPod with the info on your computer during the next sync. You can find this option in the info pane, Advanced section.
You can also use the latest backup to restore from, it contains the calendar info as well: iTunes: About iOS backups

Hi All,

All of your apps should be in iTunes on the computer, simply sync them back.
If they are not, go into the purchase history and download them again.

I deleted all my photos, how can I get them back? They aren't in the trash.

Restore from your back up seems an obvious solution.

No. Anything that was created after your last backup will be gone.
Use iCloud to automatically backup your device, usually once every 24 hours.

Updated iphone 5 with ios 6.1 - lost all Sim contacts - how do I get them back?

I updated my iphone 5 last night to the latest update 6.1 (and signed into the cloud for the first time) and now all my SIM contacts are gone....only my Facebook ones remain. How can I get them back?

The iPhone doesn't store any information on the SIM at all. Updating the phone should not have affected anthing on the SIM. Are you sure you're not talking about contacts stored somewhere else?
Did you try re-importing the contacts from the SIM if that's where they came from?
