I had about 20 Notes mysteriously disappear from my iPhone 5.

I recently had most of my notes mysteriously disappear.  The only notes that remain on my phone are over 3 years old.  Trust me, I did not delete them. I have tried recovery software with no luck. A couple of the notes were business related and were my auto mileage records. Is there any way to recover the lost notes?

Are you syncing with Outlook, iCloud, Yahoo, Gmail, etc. If so, which one.

  • My Notes mysteriously disappeared from my iPhone

    My notes mysteriously disappeared from my iPhone 4S - where did they go?
    I have not synced.  But if I did, where would they be on my computer?

    Try going into Notes, then tap Accounts at the top left, and then tap All Notes. You can also try going into all of your email account settings and make sure Notes are switched on for all (green side showing).

  • My notes section disappeared from my iPhone! up. Help!

    My notes section disappeared from my iPhone! I deleted an email account but it was a duplicate of one I already had set up. Help! My baby girls milestone events were put there as I prepared to put them in her baby book! My iCloud hasn't backed up in  a while because I ran out of space...

  • Navionics app mysteriously disappeared from my iPhone

    I purchased Navionics and downloaded on my PC and sync'd across to my iPhone3. After a couple of months it mysteriously disappeared from my iPhone and would not sync back from laptop. I have since purchased another laptop and, in desperation REpurchased another copy of Navionics. It is sitting in  iTunes along with all the other (free) apps I have downloaded, but will not sync over. Also the "Sync" command only seems to be syncing 1 thing and is not updating bookmarks etc. What's going on?  Any suggestions appreciated!

    Sorry cannot help. I have Navionics on ipad2 purchased using my new iTunes account, but now I cannot update it because whenever I press update button, a pop-up of old account will appear and prevent me from updating. It is really annoying and disappointing.

  • HT204266 my facetime app has mysteriously disappeared from my iphone screen I did not remove it can someone let me know is this common and can I still use facetime?

    My facetime app has disappeared from my iphone screen.  I did not do anything for it to disappear so what happened?

    On the iPhone there is no FaceTime app or icon for it.
    FaceTime is integrated into iOS.
    You access it through contacts.

  • Notes & Contacts disappeared from my iPhone

    All my notes disappeared from my notes app & half of my contacts diasappeared, too! What happened to them, can I get them back? I've checked my email and apparently my notes stopped synching 10 days prior to all of this! Please Help, I have a ton of information gone missing! :(

    you have notes in outlook and your trying to move them to the phone and you have the itunes preference set under devices/info to sync notes with outlook and hit applY? if all these settings are correct and your using 2003/2007 outlook try resetting sync history (edit/pref/devices in itunes) also try making sure itunes is up to date... try syncing a new note in a new user on computer to phone (see if its content error) and if still having problems on new user i'd uninstall and re-install itunes.

  • Why are my notes disappearing from my iphone

    Some of my notes have disappeared from my iPhone 5S. I noticed a while back on my old 4S. I spent about 3 hours at the Apple store trying to fix this. But it was a waste of time. My notes are backed up to my iCloud and yahoo so I still have them. This apparently is a common problem because there are a lot of folks asking the same question. The same answer that I have seen is how to retrieve them. That isn't a solution. Why is this happening and what needs to be done to keep it from happening. This is a very useful app but it is no good when it continues to lose my notes. Same thing is happening with my wife's 5S too! 

    Yahoo is holding Notes as hostage. Check your Yahoo account settings.

  • Calendar schedule blank. All appts disappeared from 3g iphone calendar synced to yahoo. After Yahoo corrected error message on their website and I re-synced my iphone, calendar reappears but will not allow edit from iphone. I can't find settings to change

    Calendar schedule blank. All appts disappeared from 3g iphone calendar synced to yahoo. After Yahoo corrected error message on their website and I re-synced my iphone, calendar reappears but will not allow edit from iphone. I can't find settings within Yahoo or within my iphone to alter editing options.
    How can I get access to edit and delete the Yahoo calendar from my iphone? I never schedule anything from the Yahoo webpage. All my appointments and reminders are scheduled from the iphone.

    My Yahoo email account worked just fine on my iPhone 4S  for the last 2 months. Then this morning I started receiving the apple.imap.mail,yahoo error.  I tried all of the steps above in solving the yahoo email issue including numerous hard re-sets and deletions of my yahoo account settings without any success. So I gave up trying to use the default Yahoo setup option.  I added my Yahoo account back as an "other" type email account and then had the option to choose to set it up as a "POP" account instead of an IMAP type. I then just used the server settings recommended from Yahoo Help for a Yahoo Plus Email POP (or just google yahoo plus email pop settings). This works and I am back in business.
    I'm not sure if this will work for yahoo mail classic accounts.
    Frustrating that this issue seems to have been going on for quite awhile and Apple still as not made any acknowledgement of this issue or proposed a fix for those of us that can not resolve the issue with a reset.

  • My Notes for 2013 just suddenly disappeared from my iPhone 5

    NOTES app: All my notes entered for 2013 have disappeared from my iPhone 5 & my iPad 2. What happened? Can they be retrieved?

    There is no way to retrieve something if it doesn't exist somewhere. But from the way that you describe this situation, maybe it is just a fluke kind to thing with iCloud. I assume that's how you keep your notes in sync if the same thing happened on both devices. Before you start trying iCloud fixes, try this.
    This is a stab in the dark, Close the notes app and reboot your iPad. See if the missing notes reappear.
    Double tap the home button and you will see apps lined up going left to right across the screen. Swipe to get to the Notes app then swipe "up" on the app preview thumbnail to close it.
    Reboot the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider if it appears on the screen - let go of the buttons. Let the iPad start up.

  • I downloaded Ringtone from iTunes into my iPhone 6 and set it as the default Ringtone. Worked well until I had to recharge my phone. Now disappearred from my iPhone but shows in Tones when phone sync'd. How do I get to show back as default Ringtone

    I downloaded a Ringtone from iTunes into my iPhone 6 and set it as the default Ringtone.Worked well until I had to recharge my phone.The Ringtone has now disappeared from my iPhone and I'm left with just the Ringtones that come standard with iPhone 6. I sync'd my phone and it shows in the Tones folder. How do I get the Ringtone back as a default Ringtone in my iPhone 6. Quite frustrating!!

    In iTunes, try signing out of your Apple ID & then back in: click on iTunes Store on the left sidebar of iTunes, click on your Apple ID on the top right, sign out, sign back in.  Then try to sync your purchased music to your phone again.

  • My notes just disappeared from IPOD and Mail.  Can anyone help me recover them?

    My Notes just disappeared from IPOD and Mail.  It may have been after a sync.  Can anyone help me recover them?

    Looks that something has gone wrong with the reset as you still have Firefox profile folders with a date/time stamp that a reset creates, but are using a regular default profile.<br />
    Such a new default profile is likely to have been created because of a problem with the profiles.ini file (if profiles.ini is missing the Firefox will create a new default profile).
    Which security software (firewall, anti-virus) do you have?
    You can look at the time stamps or check the name of the JSON backups in the bookmarkbackups folder.

  • 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:
    Use iTunes to restore your iOS device to factory settings - Apple Support
    Take care,
