Lost notes from iPhone 3GS

I have lost all of my 'notes' from my iphone.  I updated to the latest OS and noticed that all of my passwords etc stored as 'notes' had gone.  I have tried to find a back up with no luck and have also restored from an earlier back up with no luck.  Does anyone have a solution?  I know that the iPhone 3GS backs up when connected to my Mac, but it only seems to keep one.

The built-in Notes app also syncs with Notes in Mail (expand the Reminders triangle in the sidebar). Perhaps they are there?

  • Transfer "Notes" from iPhone 3Gs to iCloud and/or Devices

    I lost my "Notes" from my iMac, iCloud and iPads. However they are still on my iPhone 3Gs. I turned "Notes" off under iCloud. How can I transfer the "Notes" from my iPhone 3Gs to the other devices and iCloud without risking the loss of the iPhone data during a transfer or iCloud backup?
    Thanks.

    Well, you mean you want to extract your iPhone notes from iPhone backup, and get them to your other devices, such as Mac, iPad, get it right? If so, you can choose iPubsoft iPhone Backup Extractor for Mac, and connect your iPhone and iPad to your Mac computer, then start the program! Scan for your iPhone backup file! Select the notes you want to extract, then you can extract iPhone notes from backup file, and get them recovered on your iPad or Mac!

  • HT1386 lost notes from iPhone after syncing

    I had the same Notes on both my iPad and my iPhone. Some made on the iPad and some made on the iPhone. Now adter syncing in iTunes I seem to have lost all my iPad made notes on my iPhone. I still have both sets of Notes on my iPad.
    Also I added my MobileMe email address to the list of my email addresses I have in Mail on my iMac. My MobileMe emails were then sent to my iMac including all my notes backup both from my iPad and iPhone.
    So my Notes are not deleted or lost, just none of my iPad notes are now on my iPhone.
    Read the support BB's are now VERY confused what to do to restore my iPad Notes on my iPhone.
    On iPhone, I only seem to have: All Notes / On My iPhone / my MobileMe email address
    While on my iPad, I have: All Notes / From my Mac / my MobileMe email address
    My iPhone is 3GS. My iPad is a 2, both running the very latest iOS. Sync almost daily, never had this problem before.
    Think it occured when I added MobilMe to Mail on my iMac, but don't know for sure!!

    Hi, I think I have solved this problem. I discovered that the check box in iTunes for my iPhone got unchecked and this was why all my iPad and iMac notes apparently disappeared. I checked it and re-syned and they all came back. End of problem. Hopefully doing a similar thing will learn that for some reason the checkbox gets turned off under some circumstances.

  • How to transfer notes from iphone 3Gs to 4s

    How do you transfer notes from 3Gs to 4s

    As it turns out, this is a laborious process. Apple could have simply put in option to Move under Notes (just as under Mail Box).
    In my case, I had iPhone 3GS (from 2009 pre iCloud) and just got a new iPhone 4S.
    Notes are split under Accounts:
    On My iPhone (3GS)
    iCloud
    After searching far, end up doing this.
    Open up each Note On My iPhone
    Select All
    Copy
    Go up to Accounts / switch to iCloud
    Open a new Note
    Paste
    Done
    Repeat for 114 times (in my case 114 Notes On My iPhone 3GS). Then open up Notes iPhone 4S, all show up.

  • How can I sync my notes from iPhone 3GS to MacBook Pro?

    How can I sync my Notes from the iPhone 3GS running IOS 6.0.1 to my MacBook Pro running OSX 10.8.2?

    The most straightforward way (assuming your iPhone 3GS is running iOS 6, which it should be) is to use iCloud to house your contacts.
    Then it would be trivial to have your contacts synced and maintained between your MacBook Pro and your iPhone.
    P.S.:  Sorry, I said contacts but meant notes.  iCloud would work for both.

  • How to transfer Notes from iPhone 3GS 4.3.2 to W7?

    When I connect to W7 via cable, it shows the file system for images taken.  Also on iTunes, the phone shows up.
    But nowhere can I see a Notes object that I can use to upload my tens of pages of notes. 
    Any and all solutions are appreciated.  Thanks.

  • Delete Apps from MacBook but not from iPhone

    How can I delete Apps from iTunes but not from iPhone 3GS when I Sync them? The moment I delete the Apps from iTunes and then sync iPhone, iPhone deletes them as well.
    Please assist.

    If you intend to ever sync your phone with your Macbook then you can't delete the app from your Macbook, otherwise the apps will also delete from your iPhone (as you've discovered).

  • Tried to transfer all my data to iPhone 5 from iPhone 3GS lost my email and app data?  Do you why and how I can fix this?

    Hi...
    Tried to transfer all my data to iPhone 5 from iPhone 3GS lost ONLY my email and app data?  But weird thing is, its still on my old phone!!!
    Do you know why and how I can fix this? 
    Shelley

    How did you "try" to transfer this data? The only way to restore App data is by restoring from a backup that contains the App data, then syncing the Apps back to the phone. Emails are not included in any iPhone backup, only account settings.

  • My mac book is not working so i can no longer use my mac to back up my note in my phone and unfortunately i dont have outlook on my pc is there a way to get all my old notes from my 3gs to my 4s iphone?

    my mac book is not working so i can no longer use my mac to back up my note in my phone and unfortunately i dont have outlook on my pc is there a way to get all my old notes from my 3gs to my 4s iphone?

    Reset, hold both home and power buttons until the iPhone begins to start, try this a few times if necessary. If still problem, you may have to just Restore your iPhone to get it working. In the future sync your iPhone with iTunes routinely and when it contains important data, iCloud when set correctly will do this for you continuously.

  • Unable to transfer "Notes" and photo album from iPhone 3GS to iPhone 4

    I recently upgraded from iPhone 3GS (old phone) to iPhone 4 (new phone) and used iTunes to backup all data from the old phone.
    When setting up the new phone for the first time I selected "restore from current device" option and all the data transferred properly to the new phone.  But I get "No Signal" since the old and new phones are different carriers.  So I tried to use iCloud instead.  This time I do get proper signal with the new carrier but only  telephone "Contacts" and applications were transferred not any of the "Notes" or photo album.

    In your iPhone 3GS, go to Settings>iCloud and turn ON notes and Photo Stream. Now go to Storage&Backup and hit "Back Up Now". Now your stuffs will be on iCloud. Just use iCloud on your iPhone 4 to get them onto your device

  • Can you copy contacts from iphone 3gs to a pc?

    I want to copy my contacts from iphone 3gs to pc so i can copy them back to my new iphone 4 is that possible?

    Contacts are designed to be synced with a supported address book application on your computer. With XP, this can be with Outlook 2003, 2007, or with 2010 if 2010 is supported with XP along with syncing calendar events and notes, or with the address book app used by Outlook Express called Windows Contacts for syncing contacts only. Not a good idea to depend on your iPhone or on any cell phone alone for this data which can be lost or stolen.
    If you don't have Outlook available and you don't use Windows Contacts - Windows Contacts is empty, before the first sync for this data, enter one contact in Windows Contacts. This will provide a merge prompt with the first sync for this data, which you want to select. Syncing contacts with Windows Contacts is selected under the Info tab for your iPhone sync preferences with iTunes.

  • Upgrating from iPhone 3gs to  ios4

    Hey I am upgrating from iPhone 3gs to ios4 but I have noticed that the sim card are not the same . I am living in Lebanon middle east theirs isn t any micro sim card by the company but some friends told me that you can cut the old one to fit the ios4 is this true or theirs is another thing I have to do ?
    Rami Saba

    iOS4 is firmware update 4.0, which will be pre-installed on the iPhone 4 and will be available as a firmware update for the iPhone 3G and 3GS on 6/21.
    The iPhone 4 uses a micro-SIM card. I've seen some discussion about cutting a standard size SIM card down to the size of a micro-SIM card to be used with an iPad. If your carrier does not provide a micro-SIM card, they must not be an official carrier for the iPhone and if not, you have no other choice but to cut down a standard size SIM card to the size of a micro-SIM card.
