Export (Backup) Notes in Mountain Lion?

Dear Apple Community,
is there any possiblity to export the notes in mountain lion?
On Lion I could export the notes!

Your notes are stored in a Core Data database.
The location is ~/Library/Containers/com.apple.Notes/Library/Notes/
There are 2 or 3 files in there, called NotesV1.storedata (stuff).
Note on Mountain Lion, that the ~/Library folder is hidden by default which explains why you can't see it.
There is no way that I'm aware of to do mass import or export of notes from within the Notes application.  However, Notes is AppleScriptable so you could write an AppleScript that would do it.  This obviously requires knowing enough AppleScript to do it.
You can Google for something like "Notes.app" "mountain lion" "import" and find stuff, like this:
http://macscripter.net/viewtopic.php?id=39166
That's to import.  You could reverse the script to export stuff.
You have got to be kidding!!!!
I looked at the page you reference.
One of the biggest selling points for me to get an apple was that I could use time machine to recuperate "lost" items.
This is WAY too complicated!!
Any easier solutions?
Thanks

  • Restoring files from time machine backup made using Mountain Lion

    Hi Guys
    I have trawled through the Internet and found many sources of help for some of my headaches but still can't help the problem. So here I am.....
    I have an early MacBook Pro 13" that came with snow leopard. I immediately updated to lion which was a disaster being so slow etc. Then I upgraded to mountain lion which was pretty good. I always upgraded and never clean installed.
    I have been running time machine on a Qnap nas (model 212) which I must add has been a headache to get going in itself.
    Anyways I recently upgraded to mavericks which made my MacBook grind to a halt. I mean even the beachball was struggling. To the point after 2 weeks I couldn't get anything done on it!
    So I decided to do a clean install.  Did that and then tried to do restore files using migration assistant at first log in. Turns out my back is corrupted!
    Now I know I have a good complete backup of my mountain lion system just 2 weeks old on my nas. Only problem is that mavericks won't let me get to that when I try to upgrade from that drive as it just says no OSX backup available.
    Now I am trying to install snow leopard cleanly and the try and upgrade to mountain lion hoping that it would recognise the mountain lion backup on my nas.
    Can you please let me know if I am going in the right direction?
    Any help appreciated guys.
    Thanks

    Everything since the fresh install, has to be done manually from my Backup drive. Wasn't, or isn't TM supposed to do that automatically (for example restoring iTunes, is it supposed to restore just the application or all the folders with it as well?). Why, when I select a folder with many subfolders in it (and eventually the files I want within) does it say that the original whatever doesn't exist anymore at that location, then I have the option to choose a new location or to recreate the enclosing folders? I Click on recreate but when I do, just the top level shows (the first folder, for example, garageband). No more folders are shown inside, despite there being plenty of files in my backup version. Am I misunderstanding TM's powers/capabilities here? Is it supposed to be this frustrating and difficult?
    Everything that I want has to be done manually it seems. I don't understand it. The other thing is that it denies me access (I don't have the privileges or whatever it says) to move the files directly via the mounted disk on the desktop rather than entering TM. So, I can't go into TM and click restore, I can't manually open the mounted drive and drag files (denies me permission). The only way I've been able to do anything successfully is to archive the **** folder/s or files.
    Any help or direction, or a manual on how to use or tutorial on Time machine would be great. Someone point me in the right direction please, this is highly annoying and I am debating switching back to Leopard (having issues with iChat in Snow Leopard).
    Thanks

  • Keyword search in Apple Notes on Mountain Lion?

    Hi friends. I hope someone can enlighten me and help put some faith back into Apple's software development.
    Does anyone know how to do a keyword search in Apple Notes on Mountain Lion?? I know that sounds completely stupid but let me explain...
    In the top left corner there is a search field. When I enter a keyword it searches all the notes, and in the left hand pain it filters the notes that have the keyword in them. It doesn't actually show me *where" the keyword appears, it only shows the notes that *contain* them. It's just a filter, not a search. Try it for yourself.
    It would be like doing a keyword search in a PDF, and it only tell you which pages it appears on, rather than where on the page. It is completely useless.
    I fail to believe the program would be this limited. Can anyone tell me what I am doing wrong? Please no suggestions to go find another note program. I need notes for particular reasons.

    This behavior makes complete sense to me.  If I designed it, I would do it exactly the same way.
    Here's why:  Notes are not expected to be treatises.  They are expected to be reasonably short.  You should easily be able to find the search target in your relatively brief note.
    Nonetheless, if you fee like you'd like to ask Apple for this feature, here's how to supply feedback to Apple:

  • I have OS X 10.5.8 and I want to upgrade, but not to Mountain Lion.

    I have OS X 10.5.8 and I want to upgrade, but not to Mountain Lion. How do I upgrade to Leopard or snow leopard?

    Upgrade Paths to Snow Leopard, Lion, and/or Mountain Lion
    You can upgrade to Mountain Lion from Lion or directly from Snow Leopard. Mountain Lion can be downloaded from the Mac App Store for $19.99. To access the App Store you must have Snow Leopard 10.6.6 or later installed.
    Upgrading to Snow Leopard
    You can purchase Snow Leopard through the Apple Store: Mac OS X 10.6 Snow Leopard — Apple Store (U.S.). The price is $19.99 plus tax. You will be sent physical media by mail after placing your order.
    After you install Snow Leopard you will have to download and install the Mac OS X 10.6.8 Update Combo v1.1 to update Snow Leopard to 10.6.8 and give you access to the App Store. Access to the App Store enables you to download Mountain Lion if your computer meets the requirements.
         Snow Leopard General Requirements
           1. Mac computer with an Intel processor
           2. 1GB of memory
           3. 5GB of available disk space
           4. DVD drive for installation
           5. Some features require a compatible Internet service provider;
               fees may apply.
           6. Some features require Apple’s iCloud services; fees and
               terms apply.
    Upgrading to Lion
    If your computer does not meet the requirements to install Mountain Lion, it may still meet the requirements to install Lion.
    You can purchase Lion by contacting Customer Service: Contacting Apple for support and service — this includes international calling numbers. The cost is $19.99 (as it was before) plus tax.  It's a download. You will get an email containing a redemption code that you then use at the Mac App Store to download Lion. Save a copy of that installer to your Downloads folder because the installer deletes itself at the end of the installation.
         Lion System Requirements
           1. Mac computer with an Intel Core 2 Duo, Core i3, Core i5, Core i7,
               or Xeon processor
           2. 2GB of memory
           3. OS X v10.6.6 or later (v10.6.8 recommended)
           4. 7GB of available space
           5. Some features require an Apple ID; terms apply.
    Upgrading to Mountain Lion
    To upgrade to Mountain Lion you must have Snow Leopard 10.6.8 or Lion installed. Purchase and download Mountain Lion from the App Store. Sign in using your Apple ID. Mountain Lion is $19.99 plus tax. The file is quite large, over 4 GBs, so allow some time to download. It would be preferable to use Ethernet because it is nearly four times faster than wireless.
         OS X Mountain Lion — System Requirements
           Macs that can be upgraded to OS X Mountain Lion
             1. iMac (Mid 2007 or newer) — Model Identifier 7,1 or later
             2. MacBook (Late 2008 Aluminum, or Early 2009 or newer) —
                 Model Identifier 5,1 or later
             3. MacBook Pro (Mid/Late 2007 or newer) — Model Identifier 3,1 or later
             4. MacBook Air (Late 2008 or newer) — Model Identifier 2,1 or later
             5. Mac mini (Early 2009 or newer) — Model Identifier 3,1 or later
             6. Mac Pro (Early 2008 or newer) — Model Identifier 3,1 or later
             7. Xserve (Early 2009) — Model Identifier 3,1 or later
    To find the model identifier open System Profiler in the Utilities folder. It's displayed in the panel on the right.
    Are my applications compatible?
             See App Compatibility Table — RoaringApps.

  • Notes in Mountain Lion with images

    I created notes on Mountain Lion and they sync with my iPad/iPhone.  However notes on Mountain Lion that contain images dont sync, the note sync but the images dont.
    Is there a way to fix this?  Is this part of iOS 6?

    This is normal. For the moment. IOS notes should show a paperclip instead of an image. For images to sync you have to wait for IOS6.

  • HT4865 Notes in Mountain Lion

    Do notes in mountain lion get stored securely on the iCloud server.  now that notes is separate from mail, apple would not need to store them in IMAP servers like they were doing when notes was integrated into the mail app.

    thanks for the link Winston.
    I did read this article before I posted.  the article came out before Mountain Lion and maybe it needs to be updated to be clear.
    It does clearly say that notes are transmitted security but it does not say for sure that they are stored on IMAP servers.  it says iCloud does not store data on IMAP servers securely but doesn’t say whether this applies to both Mail and Notes.
    before the separate Notes app on ML, I would assume this KB article was referring to both Mail and Notes being stored on the IMAP server because the interface for Notes was embedded into Mail.
    It may be that Notes are still stored on IMAP servers even though they now have their own app but since the KB article pre-dates ML, it makes me wonder.

    my mac pro will not accept mountain lion how do i access older os

    Choose About this Mac from the Apple menu and check the processor.
    If it's a Core Duo, it can only be upgraded to 10.6.8; Mac OS X 10.6 DVDs are available in the online Apple Store.
    If it's a Core 2 Duo, follow the instructions for the Core Duo, phone the online Apple Store, and order a download code for Lion 10.7.

  • How do I apply multi-numbered lists in Notes app on iPad without a Tab key? E.g. I can do 1.a.i in Notes on Mountain Lion but not on iPad. The numbering style does not sync properly.

    This is what it looks like in Mountain Lion
    This is what it looks like on my iPad/iPhone. It has lost the number formattion.
    How do I tab on an iPad to get the multi-level numbers anyway??

    iWork '09 is not "outdated" it still works and works extremely well and whilst not perfect with MsWord it is far far better than Pages 5.2 which has a stream of major issues with exporting. It is also way better and faster to use than Microsoft Office.
    So what is your time and work actually worth? If it is less than $19.99 for 6 months, you may as well just chuck it in and take that job on minimum wages.
    You are assuming things for Office 2014 with absolutely no inside knowledge. Much as we assumed Pages 5 was going to be the long awaited improvement, but ended up being a downgrade to match the iOS version, Microsoft is headed the same way with their mobile versions.
    This is not like getting the "latest" pair of pants where you go with the crowd and throw out your cigarette legs which replaced the flares, which replaced your low cuts which replaced your cigarette legs, which replaced…
    This is work.
    If it does the job and does it well, use it. There is nothing out there to really match what Pages '09 does. Yet.
    LibreOffice can do most but not all, but has a UI that only a mother could love. It's great redemption is that it uses both open formats and the standard Microsoft formats and is under active development. It also opens and saves to just about everything. When they finally work out the Pages formats, I'm sure they will open those as well.
    I use a lot of professional software. Just because the publisher's marketing department says change the product so we can sell more, doesn't mean you have to pay any attention whatsoever. Adobe being a classical example. Most designers are just ignoring their latest subscription based bloatware and getting on with their work.

  • Backup Failure after Mountain Lion

    After I upgraded to Mountain Lion I got an error every time I tried to backup over wireless. I figured I would just backup from scratch, therefore I connected the hard drive to my USB, deleted the sparsbundle and then connected the hard drive back up to the Airport Extreme.
    Now every time I try to backup wirelessly I get these errors (using Time Machine Buddy):
    Starting manual backup
    Attempting to mount network destination URL: afp://**********;AUTH=SRP@****%20******._afpovertcp._tcp.local/Time%20Machine
    Mounted network destination at mount point: /Volumes/Time Machine using URL: afp://**********;AUTH=SRP@****%20******._afpovertcp._tcp.local/Time%20Machine
    Creating disk image /Volumes/Time Machine/*****.sparsebundle
    Error 60 creating backup disk image
    Failed to create disk image /Volumes/Time Machine/*****.sparsebundle, status: 60
    Backup failed with error: 20
    Ejected Time Machine network volume.
    My setup is an airport extreme base station with a Western Digital Drive connected to it. Of note, two other computers (both Lion) backup to this drive wirelessly via time machine and continue to do so flawlesly.
    Please help discussion board, you're my only hope!

    First, empty the Trash if you haven't already done so.
    Use a tool such as OmniDiskSweeper to explore your volume and find out what's taking up the space.
    Proceed further only if the problem hasn't been solved.
    ODS can't see the whole filesystem when you run it just by double-clicking; it only sees files that you have permission to read. To really see everything, you have to run it as root.
    Back up all data now if you haven't already done so. No matter what happens, you should be able to restore your system to the state it was in at the time of that backup.
    Launch the Terminal application in any of the following ways:
    ☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
    ☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
    ☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Terminal in the page that opens.
    After installing ODS in the Applications folder, drag or copy — do not type — the following line into the Terminal window, then press return:
    sudo /Applications/OmniDiskSweeper.app/Contents/MacOS/OmniDiskSweeper
    You'll be prompted for your login password, which won't be displayed when you type it. You may get a one-time warning not to screw up.
    I don't recommend that you make a habit of this. Don't delete anything while running ODS as root. When you're done with it, quit it and also quit Terminal.

  • Where is the ipad backup file in Mountain Lion?

    In Snow Leopard, there was a library folder in the user folder, but in Mountain Lion, you have the system library, but no user library that I can see.  I would like to locate it so that I can have the option of deleting the iPad portion of the Mobile Backups (like I did with SL to free up more space).
    Please advise.
    Thank you!

    And you are sure you are backing up to the computer and not to iCloud?
