If You Sync Notes Via iCloud, How Can You Make Local/On My Mac Notes?

I've you're using the Notes app in Mountain Lion, and your Notes are stored in iCloud, is it possible to make notes that are just On My Mac and not in iCloud? If so, how do you do it?

Choose Apple menu > System Preferences, and then click Mail, Contacts & Calendars.Open Mail, Contacts & Calendars preferences
Set up an account with Notes:
For an existing account:
Select the account, and then select the Notes checkbox.
For a new account:
Click an account type, enter your account information, and then follow the onscreen instructions.
I didn't need to set it up in ML but here's what Help has to say...

  • How can I make gifs work on mac?

    I spend a lot of time on 9gag.com, website that has a lot of gifs. They stopped working about a month ago, and it doesn't matter which website I use, I've tried several and gifs work in none fo them. I used to use chrome, didnt work there, now i use safari and it doesnt work here as well. I have in the back of my mind the idea that maybe there is a setting that enables them BUT the funny thing is that yesterday they worked again for an hour and stopped again:( So, how can I fix this'??

    Please read this whole message before doing anything.
    This procedure is a test, not a solution. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
    Step 1
    The purpose of this step is to determine whether the problem is localized to your user account.
    Enable guest logins* and log in as Guest. Don't use the Safari-only “Guest User” login created by “Find My Mac.”
    While logged in as Guest, you won’t have access to any of your personal files or settings. Applications will behave as if you were running them for the first time. Don’t be alarmed by this; it’s normal. If you need any passwords or other personal data in order to complete the test, memorize, print, or write them down before you begin.
    Test while logged in as Guest. Same problem?
    After testing, log out of the guest account and, in your own account, disable it if you wish. Any files you created in the guest account will be deleted automatically when you log out of it.
    *Note: If you’ve activated “Find My Mac” or FileVault, then you can’t enable the Guest account. The “Guest User” login created by “Find My Mac” is not the same. Create a new account in which to test, and delete it, including its home folder, after testing.
    Step 2
    The purpose of this step is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party system modifications that load automatically at startup or login, by a peripheral device, by a font conflict, or by corruption of the file system or of certain system caches.
    Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards, if applicable. Start up in safe mode and log in to the account with the problem. You must hold down the shift key twice: once when you turn on the computer, and again when you log in.
    Note: If FileVault is enabled, or if a firmware password is set, or if the startup volume is a Fusion Drive or a software RAID, you can’t do this. Ask for further instructions.
    Safe mode is much slower to start up and run than normal, with limited graphics performance, and some things won’t work at all, including sound output and Wi-Fi on certain models. The next normal startup may also be somewhat slow.
    The login screen appears even if you usually log in automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin.
    Test while in safe mode. Same problem?
    After testing, restart as usual (not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of Steps 1 and 2.

  • My phone won't sync to itunes. How can I make it sync?

    I haven't updated my phone in almost a year I beleive, becuase the last time I did it my phone got wiped out. My phone has always synced to my itunes on my computer without me updating it but now it won't. it won't even connect to the computer so I can try to update it. So I was wondering if I need to go to an apple store and have them update it for me (if they can even do that) or if theres something I can do. My biggest concern is that I don't want to lose all of my music I have bought that hasn't been transfered to my itunes on my computer.

    Plugging the device into any other computer to update it will wipe all the media from the device.  It does not matter if Apple does this or a user.
    Failing to sync the device for over a year because you cannot or will not resolve the issue that is occurring is not the smartest thing to do.
    Media purchased via iTunes cannot be lost, simply choose "Check for Available Downloads" from iTunes.

  • New iPhone contacts accidentally synced to Exchange server, how can I get them into my Mac?

    I've been adding a lot of contacts on my iPhone lately and now I wanted them synced to the Address Book on my Mac. This just wouldn't work for me, none of the new contacts would turn up on the Mac, no matter what I tried. After pulling my hair plenty it turns out I had the iPhone set up to sync contacts with the Exchange server from work instead of with my Mac.
    Question is, how do I get the contacts from either the Exchange account or the iPhone into my Mac?
    There doesn't seem to be a way of changing, on the iPhone, to which account an already added contact should sync. Or is there?
    I must say it's pretty ******** that you cannot just choose to import all contacts from the iPhone to the Mac. Or, at the very least, have the option to choose to what account you want to sync a new contact WHEN YOU'RE ADDING IT. As you can choose between all your calendars when adding an appointment.

  • My Apple TV is having problems with slideshows for photos synced from iTunes. How can I make it play thew whole slideshow without starting the loop again half way through?

    My Apple TV randomly returns to the beginning in the middle of the slideshow for no reason. I don't habve the photos on shuffle
    I started the slide show many times and somtimes it got through 20 photos, other times 50. Then all of a sudden, it goes back to the beginning and starts again. It's so frustrating as there is no reason for this and it doesn't loop back to the start on the same photo each time. I have about 350 photos in the album and they all loaded fine as thumbnails before I played the slideshow.
    Can anyone help please?
    Thanks, Adam

    Have solved my own problem. My PC sits on the floor so I have a four-port USB hub on my desktop with one port in use. I use one of the other three ports for USB-related task. As I was shutting down for the night I had a - what turned out to be inspired - thought about whether there was an adequate power supply from the hub. I then tried the iPod USB connection directly into the front of my machine and everything worked. It seems that an inadequate power supply was the cause of this strange set of conditions.

  • How can I make local calls without using a country code when it's in my Contacts?

    The phone numbers in my Contacts all contain country codes because I do a lot of travelling.
    An example of this might be:
    +1 (229) 123-4567
    +44 (0)12 345 6789
    +31 (0)10 2345 6789
    I have an unlocked phone so when I travel, I usually pick up a local SIM and use that to make calls.
    The problem I have is that when I am abroad and select a phone number from my contact list it doesn' work. For example, if I select a contact with the number:
    +31 (0)10 2345 6789
    A voice-recording comes on saying that the number I had dialed was incorrect.
    But when I dial the number manually:
    010 2345 6789
    It works.
    In the US I do not have this problem because for some reason, the phone knows whether the +1 is needed or not. I'm sure if it uses it at all when you're in the US. When I dial internationally from within the US, the number dialing works fine.
    So this problem only occurs when I'm dialing locally in the country I'm in while travelling outside the US.
    Anyone have any idea of why this is happening and more importantly, what I need to do to fix this? I would hate to have go and change all my contact numbers and get rid of the country codes. If I ever have to call those numbers internationally, I'll need to manually add the country code back in.
    Very annoying!
    Advice anyone?

    If you include a country number, you have to drop the initial 0 from the area code. eg +31 10 2345 6789 instead of +31 (0)10 2345 6789

  • I synced two of my email accounts via gmail's POP3 thing. But now my iphone's gmail inbox shows a random selection of emails (not most recent ones that are in my inbox). How can I make my iphone inbox match what I see when I log on using a PC?

    I synced two of my email accounts via gmail's POP3 capabilities. But now my iphone's gmail inbox only shows a random selection of emails (i.e. right now it is May 31, 2013 but the emails in my inbox are a couple from Nov 12, a few from Oct 12, and then some way older than that and so on.When I log into my gmail from a computer, I see all my emails in the logical, standard order. How can I make my iphone inbox match what I see when I log on using a PC?

    If you're trying to decide between using POP and IMAP, we encourage you to use IMAP.
    Unlike POP, IMAP offers two-way communication between your web Gmail and your email client. This means when you log in to Gmail using a web browser, actions you perform on email clients and mobile devices (ex: putting mail in a 'work' folder) will instantly and automatically appear in Gmail (ex: it will already have a 'work' label on that email the next time you sign in).
    IMAP also provides a better method to access your mail from multiple devices. If you check your email at work, on your mobile phone, and again at home, IMAP ensures that new mail is accessible from any device at any given time.
    Finally, IMAP offers a more stable experience overall. Whereas POP is prone to losing messages or downloading the same messages multiple times, IMAP avoids this through two-way syncing capabilities between your mail clients and your web Gmail.
    That is from the page that you linked- does highlighted part of message ring a bell?

  • If you have mobile me and not icloud how can you setup the locator

    if you have mobile me and not icloud how can you setup the locator

    Lion 10.7.2 is the minimum reaquirement for iCloud. If you have an earlier system the iCloud Preference Pane will not be present: the MobileMe Preference Pane will do nothing whatever as MobileMe has been closed for six months.

  • I was trying to get the iOS 8.2 on my iPhone 5 but then it stopped and my phone is now on recovery mode I have pictures I need and they did not all fit on iCloud  how can I use the phone again with ALL my pictures and videos without restoring it?

    I was trying to get the iOS 8.2 on my iPhone 5 but then it stopped and my phone is now on recovery mode I have pictures I need and they did not all fit on iCloud  how can I use the phone again with ALL my pictures and videos without restoring it?

    Contacts are designed to be synced to a supported application on the computer or a cloud service.
    Pictures taken with the device are designed to regularly be copied off the device to a computer as would be done with any digital camera.
    If you have failed to use the device as designed it may be too late to recovery anything.
    Is the device regularly backed up to a computer via iTunes?  If so, the most recent backup (when restored to a replacement iOS device) should contain all contacts and pictures as of when the backup was created.

    i got a new lenovo desktop windows 8.1,installed itunes and synced my iphone 4 no problems. then i imported a cd of songs which showed up in recently added but not in main library ,therefore it did not sync to the iphone. how can i get new songs to appear in the main library and sync properly
    thanks
    john

    Check the songs are really not in the Music section of the library by clicking the magnifying glass in the search box and unticking Search Entire Library if it is ticked, then typing in the name of the album. If the tracks still don't show try closing iTunes and deleting a hidden file called sentinel from inside your iTunes folder. This should make iTunes run an integrity check on the database when you start it again. Make sure the tracks are checked before you try syncing again.
