How to recover from lost notes on my iPhone 4?

Today, I believe that I lost a VERY long "note" on my iPhone when my battery died. Either that or I deleted it by accident.
I figured I would plug my iPhone to my laptop to get the latest version of "note" back.
Two things came up:
1 - I had to update my iTunes to the latest version
2 - Problem: my iTunes does not open.
How do I proceed?
Thanks,

Download iTunes 11.1.1 directly from Apple.

For the recovery, you may find them in your iTunes backup. If you have not a backup, a third easy iPhone recovery utility is necessary. Please follow the blog to get your notes back.

  • How to recover my lost notes

    Since 4 days ago, suddenly  I've missed almost all my notes, most of them, very important to me, maybe it happened after an Office for Mac actualization, particularly, an Outlook actualization.
    I know that it is a common situation, can somebody help me?
    Thanks in advance.

    I had the same problem and found this thread helpful, thanks seesamfly. Anyone using a yahoo mail account will find this info from yahoo partially helpful:

    My latest struggle was, how to prevent yahoo from deleting the iphone notepad entries after they move over to the yahoo mail folder (still find that weird, but, then again, what a relief to find my missing notes there).
    After an agonizing run around with yahoo and rogers chat support, (rogers is the provider of mine that packages yahoo for their subscribers but know nothing about the yahoo product), I finally found a way to turn off notes from syncing which will keep iPhone notepad notes intact (but I will need to give up the back up to yahoo notes folder - the price I'm willing to pay):
    From iPhone, select Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendars > Accounts: Yahoo! > Notes - slider "off"

  • How to recover a lost photo library on iPhone after ios 5?

    Hi guys,
    I know that there has been hundred of questions regarding lost photo's after installing ios 5 but I am struggling to find anything that relates to my situation.
    I installed ios 5 onto my iPhone 4 on saturday afternoon, but before I did this I backed it up. Everything seemed to work ok, I backed up to my mac rather than iCloud as I hadnt yet installed Lion.
    When I went to use my phone I noticed that everything was still there (apps, contacts, camera roll etc) except for another photo library that was in my photo app (the library was the photo's from my previous iPhone). I cant find these pics anywhere. I have tried using the back up twice but they still arent there!!
    does anyone have any idea of where they might be or have they been lost forever?
    any help would be greatly appreciated.
    many thanks

    The photo sync is one way - computer to iphone.
    You ould have to e-mail them to yourself.  When you sync photos to your iphone the current pics will be deleted.
    The iphone is not a storage device, it simply mirrors the selected content of your computer.

  • TS4009 I store important info in my notes app that I refer daily to. Some of my notes have 'disappeared' from my notes list and I cannot find them. Any ideas how to retrieve my lost notes?

    I store important info in my notes app on my Iphone 4S that I refer to daily. Some of my notes have 'disappeared' from my notes app.  Any ideas how to retrieve my lost notes. I am up to date on my software. All notes are  backed up to Icloud. I have approximately 74 notes on my iphone  but Icloud is showing only 15!

    Hi iPheariPhoPad,
    Welcome to Apple Support Communities.
    It sounds like there’s an issue with Settings, the Notes app entry isn’t showing up as expected. Take a look at the article linked below and try restarting your iPhone 3GS.
    Restart or reset your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch - Apple Support
    If that doesn’t do it, try restoring your iPhone as shown in this article:

    Take care,

  • How to recover the lost contact list if I had not done the back up yet

    Anyone knows how to recover the lost contact from iPad which is over write by using iCloud without back up yet ?

    Oh , it's terrible !

  • HT4191 I accidently deleted (I think because I can't find it anymore) a list of "songs I like" from my notes on my Iphone. I don't know how to recover them from my Icloud. Can someone help me?

    I accidently either misplaced or deleted something from my NOTES on my IPhone 4s. I want to restore it. Can someone help me do that?

    If you were using iCloud, did you have Notes turned on for syncing? If so, then it would be there. If not, then see if your AOL account has a notes folder. Outlook is for the computer and you would have to have a setting in iTunes for you to be syncing to that.

  • Please help I just accidentally deleted a very very important note from my "Notes" on my iPhone 4s.  How can I get it back? Is there a "Trash" file somewhere for deleted notes?  Thank you, Susan

    Had you never backed up the phone before? When you saw the iTunes logo and cable, the device was in recovery mode. The data was already lost. The only way to recover from that is to restore the device, which will delete all of your data. You will only be able to restore to your last backup, whenever that was. Sorry this happened, but this highlights the importance of doing regular backups. The backup is the only protection you have against a problem like this.

  • How do I retrieve lost notes and pictures

    How do I retrieve lost notes and pictures

    Not sure about pictures, but for iphone notes:
    After many hours of trying everything to retrieve my lost notes (several just disappeared overnight for no reason) it dawned on me that they were linked to one of my email accounts (In my case yahoo).
    I logged into that account directly from the yahoo site (not iphone mail!) and "Voila!" all of my notes, even the disappeared ones, were there!
    Took some cut & pasting and I'm back in business.
    Hope this helps.

  • How to recover from disapled ipad

    how to recover from locked ipad after wrong passwored trile

    If you cannot remember the passcode, you will need to restore your device using the computer with which you last synced it. This allows you to reset your passcode and resync the data from the device (or restore from a backup).
    If you restore on a different computer that was never synced with the device, you will be able to unlock the device for use and remove the passcode, but your data will not be present.
    You may have to force iPad into Recovery Mode

  • Cannot recover from lost of all the controlfiles without resetlogs?

    Cannot recover from lost of all the controlfiles without resetlogs?
    I have an Oracle10g (10.2.0.1) database(on RHEL5.0 system) DB10G with a recovery catalog database RCATALLOG. The RCATALOG database is synchronized with theDB10G database.
    Then I lost all the current controlfiles and I make the following steps:
    SQL> shutdown abort;
    ORACLE instance shut down.
    SQL> startup nomount;
    ORACLE instance started.
    [oracle@hostp db10g]$ rman target / catalog rman/oracle@rcatalog
    RMAN> restore controlfile;
    RMAN> alter database mount;

    Because I did not restore the the controlfiles from the backups, I do not need to open the database with open resetlogs.
    Why I cannot open the database without resetlogs? Is any step wrong?
    Thank you

    Hi,
    You restored the controlfile from backup but not the full DB. The Database files header are not sinchronized with your controlfile.
    Follow the following steps:
    1) Mount your Database and create a backup of the controlfile using:
    SQL>ALTER DATABASE BACKUP CONTROLFILE TO TRACE;2) Modify the trace file and recreate the controlfile.
    3) At this stage your database is mounted. You need to recover it.
    SQL> recover database;
    Media recovery complete.4)Open the database after recovery completes.
    SQL> alter database open;
    Database altered.Done, any problem you can use this link for reference:

  • How to recover from a bad upgrade due to a blackout, stuck in the recovery itunes screen on the iphone

    how to recover from a bad upgrade, due to a blackout. stuck in the recovery itunes screen on the iphone

    Bjpolinda,
    Do you have a recent iCloud or iTunes backup? If so, just plug your phone into iTunes, restore the phone and bring your backup back by following the prompts on the phone.
    If you didn't back up your phone before attempting to update, you may have lost all your photos and other data on your phone. If you restore the phone through iTunes, it will most definitely wipe your phone of all data and reset it to factory settings.

    How to recover a lost archive log file? Do I need to open the database with RESETLOGS after recovery?-------No.156

    I think he might rewrite the question in his own words.
    I guess in the event of lost archive logs during db recovery, you have to open RESETLOGS and say goodbye to some of the data.
