Disable Notes app emails while saving all existing notes on iPhone

I want to disable my Notes app from sending all updates to my Gmail account. I realize this can be done through Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendars > Gmail > Notes (slide to OFF). However, previous comments on this site say that all existing notes will be erased from my phone once I do this.
How can I disable the Notes app from being connected to Gmail while saving all existing notes to my phone?
Also... Gmail and Notes have always been linked for me, since I activated my Gmail to my phone the day I got it. So I can't disable this function and hope to save some Notes (such as those that existed prior to Gmail activation).
I really hope the only solution (or 'work-around' is more appropriate) isn't to email notes to myself and then copy/paste every single note back into my phone. How tedious.
Hardware: iPhone 4s
Version: 6.0.1

Thanks for your reply, cheonweb.
I do not have the Accounts button in the upperleft corner of my Notes app. In Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendars I have iCloud, Gmail and Hotmail accounts, but only Gmail has Notes enabled.
If I were to enable Notes in iCloud, then copy/paste from Gmail to iCloud, then disable Notes in Gmail... would all notes be available on my phone indefinitely? Or will they backup to my laptop when I connect my phone to my PC and be removed from my phone?
I do not currently use iCloud to backup, I just go through iTunes.

    Hai Matt
    I have a problem with download a new app. While I bought iphone5, I take iphone to shopkeeper for download some app and videos that he used his Apple ID . That's t problem now.. Not all the time his ID is appearing but some times his Apple ID is appearing that time I can't download app, videos, songs.. So please guide me to remove that ID or how to solve that..
    Regards
    Babu

    Check Settings/iTunes and AppStore/AppleID and make sure that your AppleID is filled in. If not , sign out and sign in with the correct info.
    To make sure that no other apps or videos are on your device than the one you bought, set it up as new device, explained here: How to back up your data and set up as a new device
    Content that is not bought with your ID can't be used on your phone, that's why his ID and password is asked when you try to use those apps downloaded in the store.

    Ah, well, then the notes are probably gone. Did you save any of the email from that account on your computer? The notes might be there if you did.

    Thank you.

    So you have business contacts that were lost... do you not have these on a Database in some shape or form? Sounds like you need to invest in a RAID1 backup setup for your computer so you dont have this issue in the future.
    As for repairing your problem, sounds like you are going to need to start from scratch at this point or if the data is still on your phone look into a program that can take the information from the phone onto iTunes.

  • Could not send email while in MX, wireless connection

    Last week I could not send email while in MX, wireless connection, using an SMTP server I usually use, and had used from Europe months before - only difference was that I did not turn on AT&T's international access feature. I wish now that I had thought to turn off localization. Email went out when I returned to the USA with no other change. Is this a known "feature"?

    Bring the Mail browser window forward, then select Enter Time Machine from the Time Machine menu, which is represented by a clock icon in the menu bar. If you don't have that menu, select
     ▹ System Preferences ▹ Time Machine ▹ Show Time Machine in menu bar
    Scroll back in the time-travel view to the most recent snapshot containing the messages you want to restore. Select the messages, then click Restore. The messages will be restored to a new mailbox. From there you can move them wherever you like.

  • My iPad will not send emails, even though all the settings seem correct.  But it receives them OK.

    My iPad will not send emails, even though all the settings seem correct.

    Patricia,
    When you say seem correct, have you checked in Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendars > Account name > Outgoing Mail Server, SMTP and the outgoing server name is correct, then > Primary Server name is correct >  Host Name, User Name, redo the Password, Use SSL is OFF or ON according to your provider, may just try it both ways, Server Port, often 25 is the best to use.

    I don't have any problem with my Google Apps email account, so far. Use complete email address as your user-name like [email protected]
    See if it works, and reply.

  • Is there a good "Sticky note app that ACTUALLY put a Sticky Note on my iPad ( over my existing wallpaper images) on either the Home or Lock screens like how the Stickies app works on a Mac?

    I have an iPad 3.
    I tried two, One was a worthless piece of junk I wasted $2.99 on and the other is pretty good ($1.99) except is does not do a function I would like to use as advertised ( which is to create a sticking note that works like an app by creating an icon sized version of the original created sticky note, then  clicking on an app icon size version of the originally created sticky note that you can tap on like an app and a large sticky note is supposed to appear. This does NOT work with an iPad.
    Does anyone use a Stickies app for IOS that works exactly like how the Stickies app works on a Mac?
    What good is a Stickies note app on iOS when it cannot put actual virtual stickies notes over the main IOS screens and wallpapers and remain there until they are no longer needed?
    Does any one use a good stickies app on iPad? NOT iPhone or iPod Touch.

    It really cannot be done in iOS due to the sandboxed security model of the operating system. No app can modify the "desktop" like that - they can only display their own "virtual" desktop when actually actively in use.  so any stickie note app is the same as any simple note app - it must be open and active to display content. It cannot modify any screen but it's own when active.

  • Are there ANY memos/notes apps that will sync with Mac, NOT "cloud"?

    In desperation I got BlueMarbleSOftware.com's "Memos" app to move memos from my now defunct Palm to my iPhone. I then discover that "Memos" can't create a new category on the iPhone. Grr. It also uses a Google Files account to move them. I keep sensitive information in my memos and I'm NOT going to put that out in the "Cloud". So, this isn't working out well.
    My question:
    Is there ANY iPhone/OS X application pair out there that will allow me to sync my notes/memos to my Mac and not to the Cloud? iTunes is a pretty poor sync mechanism since it can only allow me access to iTunes type stuff. iCal, while not very good, at least syncs with the calendar on the iPhone and contacts also sync with OSX. However, nothing that I can find will sync notes with the Mac directly. Has anyone out there found something that will? I'm happy to pay for it if it DOESN'T go through the "Cloud".
    I love my iPhone's capabilities, but Apple's restrictions on its use are dimming my enthusiasm a bit about the iPhone being a killer "do everything" box.
    Thanks,

    This sounds ideal - My read of it wasn't perfectly clear - Does it sync through the USB cable that the Apple sync uses or though a wireless connection? How good is the Mark/Space notes app? Apple's notes doesn't allow grouping by category, everything goes into one place, is the M/S notes app better than that?
    Thanks! This is looking perfect!
