Notes disappear from Notes App

After making and using the Notes function since I got my iPhone 4 at the end of July, suddenly it will no longer save new or edited notes -- they simply disappear. And they disappear from my iPad, too, which I had considered a back-up.  I cannot find them anywhere, and this loss of functionality is significant. Any suggestions for a fix?  Thank you.

Hello Pegknows,
Welcome to the Apple Support Communities. After reading your post, I believe that you may be looking in a specific account for notes. You can click the Notes icon in the upper left hand corner of the Notes app. You can also check out the help guide on your phone. To view the guide on iPhone, tap the iPhone User Guide bookmark in Safari or go to help.apple.com/iphone. I have also outlined some of those options to find those missing notes for you
Use iCloud to keep your notes up to date on your iOS devices and Mac computers:
• If you use an icloud.com, me.com, or mac.com email address for iCloud: Go to Settings > iCloud and turn on Notes.
• If you use a Gmail or other IMAP account for iCloud: Go to Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendars and turn on Notes for the account.
Choose the default account for new notes: Go to Settings > Notes.
Create a note in a specific account: Tap Accounts and select the account, then tap to create the note. If you don’t see the Accounts button, tap the Notes button first.
See only notes in a specific account: Tap Accounts and choose the account. If you don’t see the Accounts button, tap Notes first.
Have a good one,
-Norm G.

  • I have installed the latest OS X Updaate 10.8.4 - several times on my iMac, with restarts, but it won't disappear from my App Store update list.  Why?

    I have installed the latest OS X Updaate 10.8.4 - several times on my iMac, with restarts, but it won't disappear from my App Store update list.  Why?   ..and how do I get rid of it?

    I had a similar problem with trying to update using the App Store, and being told that the software was "installed" yet I was still only running 10.8.3.
    The App Store was continually saying the 10.8.4 was available but with many tries I still could not download or install it.
    And there are a few links to the OSX 10.8.4 (Combo) update that actually lead to a "Cant find this page error" on the Apple site and the App Store.
    I did find a link to just the vanilla flavoured OSX 10.8.4 update here http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1658 which is a smaller download of 359mb rather than 849mb with the combo update.
    The simple OSX 10.8.4 update downloaded fine with Safari and I installed it with no problems from the finder. A few opening's on closing's of the App Store app made the update flag finally disappear.
    I have since come back here to report this and then found the link to 10.8.4 Mountain Lion Update v10.8.4 (Combo) at http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1659 above and found that this link also starts to download the update through Safari and while I decided that I no longer needed it, I would presume that it would still install fine from the finder like the OSX 10.8.4 update did.
    So it seems to me that there is a problem with (maybe occasionally) updating from the App Store, but if you download from either of the two "hard" links above and install from the finder it should be fine.

  • Photo will not disappear from Photos app

    I saved a photo from my messages into my camera roll, imported it into iPhoto, and synced it back to my iPhone.  A few minutes later I deleted the photo from my iPhoto Library . . . but it refuses to disappear from my iPhone.  I've turned off photo syncing, removed the photos and resynced them, repaired my iPhoto library, dismissed the Photos app state, restarted the phone, force quite the Photos app . . . but nothing seems to work - the photo still remains.

    My Photo Library doesnt have a trash can button either. That is basically a collection of all your pictures. If I want to delete a picture I find where I am syncing it from on my PC and remove it from there, and resync.

  • Neverwinter Nights 2 has disappeared from the App Store

    I purchased Neverwinter Nights 2 from the app store when it was on sale and I installed it on my iMac but now I cannot access it through the app store. When I click on it on my iMac I get a message that my request could not be completed. I have been trying to put it on my Macbook but I can't find it. Does anyone know what has happened to it?

    Hi ..
    Apparently it's not available from the App Store any longer.
    Try your Applications folder just in case.
    It's not available for iOS based apps at the iTunes Store either.
    And try contacting the app developer  >  http://www.aspyr.com/games/neverwinter-nights-2

  • Apple TV2 Just Disappeared from Remote app on iPad and iPhone after latest Remote app update

    I Have used Remote app on my iPad and iPhones to control my ATV1, ATV2, and ATV3 for years. After the latest Remote app update ATV2 has disappeared from tRemote, and I can no longer find a way to connect it. Any advice about this?

    Brilliant. Restarting did the job, and all is well. Since I have recommended this to others with other ATV problems, I'm a bit embarrassed that I didn't try it myself at the outset, and would probably have come around to trying it later, but you saved me some time. Thanks.

  • Passbook card disappeared from Passbook app

    I opened my Passbook app today and found out two of my passbook cards dissapeared from the app and I didn't delete them. anyone has same problem?

    I doubt anyone here thinks you made this up. Stuff happens and sometimes there seems to e no reason for it. But a reset often fixes glitches of various kinds. So try resetting your device and see if the missing items return.
    First thing to try is a reboot of your device. Press and hold the Home and Sleep buttons simultaneously ignoring the red slider until the Apple logo appears. Let go of the buttons and let the device restart. See if that fixes your problem.
    You might also have signed out using the app that supports passbook. Use the original app and make sure you ae signed in.

  • How can I get Apple Remote Desktop to disappear from my App Store updates list?

    My Apple Remote Desktop software shows up in my App Store updates list.  But I have already updated it to version 3.6.1 and it shows as "Installed".  It is greyed out and will not go away.  Any ideas on how to make it disappear is most appreciated. 

    All the suggestions I have read have not worked for me.
    But you can try:
    Running Software Update from the Apple Menu
    Logging in to the Mac App Store with the account that purchased ARD
    Deleting various Apple Store .plist files
    NB I haven't tried removind ARD and reinstalling.

  • Album splitting and disappearing from Music App

    Hi there!
    I have a bunch albums in iTunes and Music App and they're splitting and disappearing randomly this **** is really annoyin me. Does anyone know how to fix and end this mess up?
    Here are the screenshots of iTunes and Music App.
    House Of Pain albums appears in iTunes:
    But not in the Music App (I've bought those albums couple days ago via iTunes on iPhone, but today they gone):
    And another issue with splitting the albums randomly:
    Same album in iTunes:
    The only way I found is to Reset To Factory Defaults. But ****, I can't do this thing each time I buy music
    Looking forward for any ideas. Cheers!

  • MobilRomeo disappeared from the App Store. Why?

    MobileRomeo is an App which I bought for 3,99 € in the AppStore. Unfortunately it has ben censored by Apple and disappeared without recharging my Credit Card or any explanation. So I cannot get Updates.
    Romours say it has been moved because of sexual content. For sure you can see naked men there, because it is a app, which brings the famous gayromeo.com to the iPhone. But to censore it has been not very intelligent, because I can reach exactly the same sites and pics via safari browser? Is Apple the police or are gays not welcome?

    Thats not the point. I am an adult, old enough to know what I do and do need to be censored and controled by anybody in this way.
    You have my sympathy, and I agree with you. But Apple's position is that not everyone who buys apps is an adult, and they have no way of knowing who is, so they must be everyone's parent. I am frustrated by some of the music that they censor also - especially stuff that they leave off out-of-print albums that I can't get anywhere else.
    Apple's wrong IMO, but it's their store. And they put themselves at risk by censoring some content, because that makes them liable if they don't censor something that someone thinks they should.

  • Messages disappear from mail app?

    since i changed my comp and automaticly transfer from my old one, a power book,every day i open the mail app i find every time less messages inbox and sent...
    i found some messages in librery they have a number and emlx(?)
    does anybody can help me i don't want to loose all the info i have in my mail!

    In the Finder, go to ~/Library/Mail/. With that folder open, do Edit > Select All (⌘A), then Edit > Copy (⌘C), and paste it in your reply to this post, to let me see the names of the files and folders present at the root level of the Mail folder.
    Before actually posting that information, you may edit it so that the file/folder names do not reveal any details you wish to keep private, e.g. you may replace any real username with "username" to hide your real email address if you wish; similarly, you may disguise any domain names you don't want to be revealed. Try to be consistent in how you disguise those details, though, as we may need to refer to them in subsequent posts.
    Now, go to ~/Library/Mail/Mailboxes/. With that folder open, repeat the process to let me see the names of the files and folders it contains. Again, you may disguise any mailbox names you wish to keep private. Be careful to not alter any suffixes, though.
    Finally, locate the account folders within ~/Library/Mail/ -- their name begins with the account type (POP, IMAP, Mac), followed by the account username and the incoming mail server. For each account folder, repeat the process to let me see the names of the files and folders it contains.
    Let me know which are the mailboxes that have the problem.
    Note: For those not familiarized with the ~/ notation, it refers to the user's home folder. You can easily locate any of the folders referred to in this post by copying the file path here, doing Go > Go to Folder in the Finder, and pasting the file path there.

  • Why did my available app update disappear from the app store

    A few weeks ago, I had an update available for one of my iphone apps that I chose not to download since it was said to have bugs.  As a result, I had an outstanding badge app icon.  Just today I realized that the alert was missing.  At first I thought I might have accidentally updated the app when I synced my phone last, but when I search for the app in the app store, it still gives me the option to update (I've included a screen shot below). It just no longer shows an available update under the update tab (see second screen shot)  It's not a huge deal at the moment since I don't want to install this update, but I'm afraid the problem might continue with future updates I want to install. Any ideas? I restored my phone from an icloud backup a few days ago, but once the restore was complete, the update alert still showed correctly, so I don't think that's the problem.

    It's good to know I'm not the only one with this problem.  I had noticed the issue with my downloaded apps displaying the price, but I thought maybe it's always been that way since I never install apps through iTunes on my computer, just my phone.  My husband's computer is doing the same thing, but he didn't have any outstanding updates on his phone, so I'm not sure whether his phone is having the same issue.  My guess is that if other people are having this problem, they don't have any outstanding updates, so they aren't aware of it.  I know many people who make a habit of not updating apps have jailbroken devices and can install an app that hides the badge app icon.  I guess for now we need to wait it out and see if the problem fixes itself.  It's still annoying though.
    P.S.- I just noticed that on my phone if I search for a previously installed app, it just shows the price instead of giving me the option to "Install".  I can reinstall it by brining it up in the list of purchased apps, so it's just when searching for the app.  Also if I search for a currently installed app, it says "open" instead of showing the price, so it's only with previously intalled apps.  Whatever the issue, I hope it's fixed soon.

  • Cannot sync photos / Folders disappeared from Photos app after 3.1 update

    Ever since I installed 3.1 on my iPhone, in my photos app, the Wallpaper folder and another folder I put on the iPhone via sync have disappeared. The wallpapers are still all there as I can choose one as a wallpaper from the Settings, but I cannot access them anymore via Photos. My other folder has simply disappeared.
    Now I was trying to put the folder and another one back on the iPhone, and the iPhone keeps giving me the error that there isn't enough space on the iPhone. I have 223MB available according to iTunes and the folders together are under 3MB. How is this possible? Has anyone experienced the same problem / does anyone know how to solve this? Thanks.

    myy folders has been deleted too . i have no idea how to fix this problem buht its very annoyinq . i need to fix this asap because syncinq was never a problem and now iht is =(

  • Current Location bookmark disappearing from Maps App

    My Current Location bookmark in the Maps app keeps disappearing. I can restore the phone and it will be there. But as soon as I restore my backup it disappears. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks

    I don't have an answer (sorry) but think I have a related problem. My bookmarks tab has TWO problems. First, it doesn't scroll (can't see bookmarks below those that show up at the top of the list). Second, there is no "done" button. Very strange. And a weird bug - when in "edit" mode (to delete or rearrange bookmarks), the scrolling works.

  • My iCloud mailboxes have disappeared from Mail.app (10.6.8)...

    ...yet "Window->Connection Doctor" states that "Connection and login to server succeeded.", and I'm still above to view my mail via icloud.com and via my iPod touch and iPad (both 5.1.1); I've been experiencing this problem for more than twenty-four hours now - anybody have any idea what's going on?

    Yeah, I've read those threads where I thought the poster might be experiencing the same error as myself - however, none of the posters of those threads are experiencing the same error as myself, and I began experiencing the error early (GMT) on the 16th.

  • Regarding my Notes App!!!

    My "Notes" have just disappeared from the app.  I went into my Q.com account and they are there but not all of them....how did that happen and how can I get them back?  Thanks.

    Ah, the disappearing notes trick.... Odd, but my notes go back to 2012, never had this problem.
    Things to check:
    Are Notes in your iCloud? Check iCloud.com, login on a computer with Apple ID.
    Are they included in sync? My iPad just updated last night, settings sometimes get messed up. Check settings , accounts to see if Notes is on for sync.
    Are "All Notes" included? Open notes app, tap accounts at the top of screen. Tap all apps.
    Any luck?
