HT1688 Iphone 5 I lost all my notes. Any suggestions
Any help on recovering notes from iphone 5?
I just lost all notes. I tried the backups but as soon as restore was completed, it would lose notes again. I disconnected after recover but still no notes.
Out of desperation, as I have all my passwords etc on it (yes, I know) but I trusted the iTunes backup system. I looked on the net and found a recovery company called Wondershare, Dr Phone. I tested it and there it all was, but it has now cost me £71 to purchase key number to download my info.
All notes info and everything else is available. It saves it in a file which you open.
Now I have to type it all in again. I will keep manual backups now as well as using Dropbox from now on. Nightmare. I hope this helps you all.

I had to erase my data to upgrade my iPhone software from an older version. I backed up first, but seem to have lost all my notes. Does anyone know how retrieve my old notes?
Is this the note you are referring to:
Not sure if this can help you.
I checked my notes. They are stored here:
MacintosHD/Users/MYHOME/Library/Containers/com.apple.notes/Data/Library/CoreData /ExternalRecords/
xxxxxserie.of.numbers.probably.yours.are.different/IMAPNote/_records/0/
If I go tot this window on finder and enter Time Machine I can go back and find old notes...
If so, am I doing this on my new hard drive on on the time machine? When I do this on the time machine, what is "my home"? Also, I am unable to find "containers".
If I go to users/jeff/library, then I see components, compositions, contextual, etc, but not containers.

i have lost all my notes saved on my iphone after syncing it. and my default mailbox is gmail. notes were very important. and now i dont know how to get them back. can anyone help me out please? thanks in advance.
Try this ..
On your Mac open System Preferences > iCloud
Deselect the box next to: Notes
Then reselect it.
Give iCloud a few minutes to re sync the data.
Other than that, try Time Machine > http://pondini.org/TM/15m.html -
i updated my iphone and lost all my notes there is lots of important notes, how can i get em back especially that on itunes when i sync my iphone a note appear that there is no back up on icloud,and i cannot restore?
Without a backup on iCloud, there needs to be another device using the same @icloud address that is syncing to the notes. Without that, there is no way to go back in time to create a backup before performing a major update.

I just updated my Iphone and now I've lost all my notes!! How do I get them back?
I just updated my iphone 4s and now all my notes are gone!! I've been on the phone w/apple for about 2 hours and they are useless!! I've been trying to restore my phone to get the old notes back but to no avail.
Please help!I lost my contacts too after upgrading. The numbers remained under recent calls and messages, but there was nothing in my contacts list. If you synced to the iCloud, you can retrieve your contacts by turning off syncing contacts to the cloud… save the (nonexistent) contacts on the phone. Then turn syncing to the cloud back on. It worked for me… they all returned and repopulated the names to the messages and recent calls.

On my iPhone I ave lost all the data in Notes.How cn I prevent this from happening again?
Did you recently remove an email account that synced notes or disable Notes for your iCloud account?
Backup your iPhone using iTunes, see this for more info -> iTunes: About iOS backups
You can also sync notes, more info here -> iOS: Syncing Notes -

Any error numbers given?
If yes, check this article:
Update and restore error messages on iPhone and iPod touch
Has any modified software been installed before you updated?
Unauthorized modification of iOS has been a major source of instability, disruption of services, and other issues -
lost all my notes in my iphone 5s and so i went to my ipad and pulled the notes up and seen them for a Sec then they were gone. Please is there any way to get my notes back?
Do you have a back up?
If not you're into using file recovery software like File Salvage - you can download a free trial and it will scan the disk for you and tell you with might be recoverable. Actual recovery will require that you purchase the app. There may be many files with the same or similar names. Always recover the largest file size.
There are other such apps. Search on Macupdate or the App Store -
Updated iPhone 4S; lost all my NOTES
Updated iPhone 4S late September 2014; lost all my NOTES (because not using iCloud??). Don't want to use iCloud. They are not on my iMac either (so much for re-establishing the bak-up function!). Help.
I am trying to help out my son. It is his phone, he has never backed up to anything that he knows of. I know he has a gmail email account on the phone but he cannot remember ever syncing the phone to a computer. If he needs to use Itunes he uses his wifes account. I have called Gadget Grave and Phone Doctor trying to find out if there is a way to find his contacts. He did not have Icloud on it was off and has always been off. I have since turned it on and created him a account. The contacts he is replacing like 4 out of over 100 so far is in the cloud I logged in and checked. Any help at all will be greatly appreciated. I bought a online program Tenor I think it was that said it could recover the contacts but could not even get the Registration to work on it so I have ask for a refund.

I havent' took any backup of my notes in icloud. The moment I enter the password after restore my notes will be empty. The only option to get notes back is that after restore skip entering icloud password. But any time I enter icloud password anywhere again my notes will be empty. I have huge data saved in my notes.

Please define "unlocked iphone 4". It is not clear what, exactly, you did or how it would have affected anything.

I have lost all the notes I have taken for the past several months. There one day, gone the next. I didn't sync between this or remove any email accounts.
I have reset my iPhones and made sure all notes accounts are being displayed and active.
Is there anything I can do to recover these notes?
Thanks in advance for any help.If you did not make any backups your notes are gone. Lesson learned.

Updated 2.2 Iphone Software and lost all contact information! HELP!!
I have the old 8G Iphone and updated the new 2.2 Iphone software and lost all my contact information,video, pics,etc. I tried to hit restore and it did not bring anything back. Does Itunes save info as a back up? HELP!!
AnthonyIn regards to contact info, the iPhone is designed to be synced with a supported application on your computer.
With XP, this can be with Outlook 2003 or 2007, or with the address book used by Outlook Express, which I believe is named Windows Contacts.
Photos captured by your iPhone should be imported by your computer, as with any other digital camera.
Music and video transferred to your iPhone should remain in your iTunes library on your computer, and the same for photos that were transferred to your iPhone from your computer.
iTunes creates and maintains a backup of your iPhone, which is updated if needed as the very first step during the sync process - if any of the data included with your iPhone's backup has changed since the last sync.
The backup stores data such as most iPhone settings, email account settings, SMS messages, notes created with the Notes application, recent calls, call favorites, contact info, and photos that were captured by your iPhone, but it isn't a good idea to depend on your iPhone's backup only for the last two. As already provided, contact info is designed to be synced with a supported application on your computer, and photos captured by your iPhone should be imported by your computer - as with any other digital camera.
You updated to 2.2 from which firmware version, and did you sync your iPhone with iTunes immediately before installing firmware update 2.2 to update your iPhone's backup if needed?
You can try restoring your iPhone with iTunes from your iPhone's backup. This will completely erase your iPhone followed by re-installing the current firmware version, which is 2.2. After 2.2 is re-installed, you will be prompted to restore your iPhone from your iPhone's backup, which is the default selection. After your iPhone is restored from your iPhone's backup, this must be followed by a sync with iTunes to re-transfer your selected iTunes content from your computer to your iPhone along with any photos transferred from your computer to your iPhone.
If your contact information and photos that were captured by your iPhone are not restored from your iPhone's backup and you didn't sync contact information with a supported application on your computer and you didn't import the photos that were captured by your iPhone, this data will be lost.
