How do you restore notes?

I accidentally erased some note files from notes on my Macbook. I use a me.com e-mail account on iCloud and time machine backs up daily. Can you walk me through the steps necessary to restore notes.
Also, when I connect my iPad to the Macbook with the designated cable, should Back up to iCloud or Back up to this computer be checked?
Thanks Again,
John Franco

The best way is to restore from a Time MAchine or other backup.  The next is to locate a copy you have on a removeable or other drive.  Next is a copy you emailed to someone.
Finally you can use specialized tools to undelete-- this methind is only reliable if you have not written to your disk much since you deleted.

  • Can, and how do you restore from ipod back to recently replaced hard drive on a pc not mac?

    can, and how do you restore music from ipod back to recently repaced harddrive on a pc not mac?

    Some of the information below has subsequently appeared in a document by turingtest2: Recovering your iTunes library from your iPod or iOS device - https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-3991
    Your i-device was not designed for unique storage of your media. It is not a backup device and media transfer was planned with you maintaining a master copy of your media on a computer which is itself properly backed up against loss. Syncing is one way, computer to device, updating the device content to the content on the computer, not updating or restoring content on a computer. The exception is iTunes Store purchases which can be transferred to a computer.
    iTunes Store: Transferring purchases from your iOS device or iPod to a computer - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1848 - only purchases from iTunes Store
    For transferring other items from an i-device to a computer you will have to use third party commercial software. Examples (check the web for others; this is not an exhaustive listing, nor do I have any idea if they are any good):

  • How do you restore your macbook to original settings?

    how do you restore your macbook to original settings?

    Install or Reinstall Lion from Scratch
    If possible backup your files to an external drive or second internal drive.
    Boot to the Recovery HD:
    Restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the COMMAND and R keys until the menu screen appears. Alternatively, restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the OPTION key until the boot manager screen appears. Select the Recovery HD and click on the downward pointing arrow button.
    Erase the hard drive:
    Select Disk Utility from the main menu and click on the Continue button.
    After DU loads select your startup volume (usually Macintosh HD) from the left side list. Click on the Erase tab in the DU main window.
    Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled.) Click on the Erase button and wait until the process has completed.
    Quit DU and return to the main menu.
    Reinstall Lion: Select Reinstall Lion and click on the Install button.
    Note: You can also re-download the Lion installer by opening the App Store application. Hold down the OPTION key and click on the Purchases icon in the toolbar. You should now see an active Install button to the right of your Lion purchase entry. There are situations in which this will not work. For example, if you are already booted into the Lion you originally purchased with your Apple ID or if an instance of the Lion installer is located anywhere on your computer.
    If you upgraded from an earlier version of OS X such as Snow Leopard, the procedure you want is not this one. Let me know.

  • How do you restore Lightbeam data

    How do you restore the .json file that Lightbeam saves when the "Save Data" button is selected? The Firefox browser (ver. 33) has become slow and I want to disable the blocked sites temporarily to see if that could be the problem. Thanks!

    I'm trying to determine whether I can restore the blocked sites in Lightbeam if I choose to reset Lightbeam to solve a slowness issue with my current Firefox browser, ver. 33. The json file that Lightbeam created when "Save Data" is selected does not include any other Firefox data to my knowledge, such as bookmarks and the like. If I restore the bookmarks etc. using the Mozilla instructions, will that also include the Lightbeam-created blocked sites? The list of blocked sites is extensive. Thanks for your help!

    how do you restore a password on a locked folder made in disk utility?

    Hello there, HoseDwellers.
    The following Knowledge Base article as a great step by step instructional on how to change the password for the account:
    OS X: Changing or resetting an account password
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1274
    Resetting a user's password in OS X Lion and Mountain Lion
    Important: Passwords for administrator accounts should not be blank.
    Log in with an administrator account. Tip: If you don't know the password of any administrator accounts, see "Resetting the original administrator account password" below.
    From the Apple menu choose System Preferences.
    From the View menu choose Users & Groups.
    Click the lock button if it appears locked; enter the administrator password.
    Select the name of the user whose password you want to change.
    Click the Reset Password button or the Change Password button.
    Enter a new password in both the New Password and Verify fields, and add a Password Hint if desired.
    Click the Reset Password button or the Change Password button.This should get you taken care of.
    Remember, also, that you can restart the computer (you will be prompted to enter your administrator password) and this should log him out  so that when you log back in, you can then follow the above steps with success.
    Thanks for reaching out to Apple Support Communities.

  • How do you restore iphone as a new phone?

    Hi there,
    How do you restore iphone as a new phone? Actually, I know how to restore it but I'm not sure how to get the files back on after... I don't really understand how this will be any different from just restoring from a backup if I'm just going to put the content on later anyways.
    Any help or clarification would be greatly appreciated!
    The reason I'm asking about this is because my battery life on my 4S is soooo bad!
    Brandon

    Ah. So, the reason it'll help to use as new device is because typically the app data is not the issue. It's a corrupt system file. So using new device takes away any corrupt system files and almost always solves most any issue. However it does cause the pain of having to add everything back. I've done this in cases where restoring from backup just didn't solve my issue. It ***** but is sometimes needed.

  • Using RMAN, how do you restore from an old backup file?

    HI,
    I use Oracle 9i on Solaris.
    I'm currently doing incremental level 0 hot backups every night using RMAN in NOCATALOG mode. The controlfile is backed up with the database. I back it up to a file (e.g. "level0_20041225.dmp"). After I back it up, it's backed up to tape using Veritas. Before doing a backup, I delete the old one first.
    I need to restore a copy of the database backup that was taken a month ago. This file is on tape. How do I go about it using RMAN? The documentation is not too clear as it talks more about Restoring the control file and the latest copy of the database.
    How do you restore an old copy of the database from a database file?
    Pls advise
    Thanks

    You can recover to the last committed transaction,
    provided you have the current controlfile, archived
    logs since the backup and the current online logs.
    Here's the procedure in a nutshell:
    a) Restore datafiles from tape.
    b) Recover database using restored files + current
    controlfiles and archived/online logs. RMAN will prompt
    you for the logs it needs for recovery.
    You can also perform this type of recovery using a
    backup controlfile. In this case you would still need
    all logs as above. After recovery, you would have to
    open the database with RESETLOGS because you are using
    a backup controlfile.
    If you don't want/need to recover up to the last
    committed transaction, you use a backup controlfile and
    perform incomplete recovery (time or change based). This
    simply means that you stop the application of redo at
    the time or SCN of your choice.
    Most of the scenarios of interest are documented in
    the following book:

  • How do you restore to backup

    how do you restore to last backup can only find factory restore

    Easy but verified fix!
    I had this problem with my 3Gs.  After trying the backup a few times unsuccessfully, here's what worked for me:
    1-Restarted my phone
    2-Once I connected and it tried to backup, I canceled the backup message
    3-Went to the phone's setting in iTunes (namely the Apps tab) and saw that suddenly the capacity bar was full rather than empty again
    4-Removed some of the apps I didn't want on anyway
    5-Hit "Apply" in the lower right corner
    6-After the sync was complete, the phone still was not restored.  However, all I had to do then was back it up from the most recent backup (which came when I did step 5)
    7-Voila!  The phone was back.  Oddly, iTunes gave me the same error message at the end but my iPhone was working fine with iOS5!

  • How do you restore after forgetting a password on a ipod?

    how do you restore after forgetting a password on a ipod?

    If you forgot its password the iPod has to be restored. Make sure you are following the instructions in this procedure to the letter. Here they are, with emphasis on some easily overlooked requirements:
    Disconnect the USB cable from the Pod touch, but leave the other end of the cable connected to your computer's USB port.
    Turn off the device: Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button for a few seconds until the red slider appears, then slide the slider. Wait for the device to turn off.If you cannot turn off the device using the slider, press and hold the Sleep/Wake and Home buttons at the same time. When the device turns off, release only the Sleep/Wake button.
    Continue pressing and holding the Home button while you reconnect the USB cable to the device. The device should turn on.Note: If you see the "low battery" screen, let the device charge for at least ten minutes to ensure that the battery has some charge, and then start with step 2 again.
    Continue holding the Home button until you see the "Connect to iTunes" screen. When this screen appears (iTunes icon and USB connector)release the Home button.
    If necessary, open iTunes. You should see the "recovery mode" alert ("iTunes has detected a phone in recovery mode").
    Use iTunes to restore the device.
    If you do not see the "Connect to iTunes" screen, try these steps again. If you see the "Connect to iTunes" screen but the device does not appear in iTunes, see this article and its related links.
    Select the iPod in iTunes and choose "restore from backup".
