Notes will NOT sync in iCloud across devices

I've tried everything I've read in these forums about getting Notes to sync across iOS devices via iCloud, but with no luck. I've deleted and reinstalled iCloud accounts, turned iCloud on/off/on, restarted devices, made sure *every* setting for iCloud, Mail, and Notes is identical on all devices. The only Notes account is iCloud -- no "On My iPad' or "On My iPhone" at all, so there's no question Notes are being saved to the iCloud account. Photostream and documents syncing works fine, but Notes, absolutely not. The devices are iPhone 5s, iPad mini retina and iPad 2, all with iOS 7.0.4. Any ideas out there? I'm ready to bag iCloud and just email Notes to my other devices, which at least will work. All Iv'e done so far is lose the Notes I had trying to get this thing to work.

Sounds like you've checked everything. Only thing I could suggest is emailing all your notes to yourself, then deleting the iCloud account, signing back in, then try recreating the notes from the emails and see if they sync now (which I realize might be a lot of work if you have a lot of notes). You would also want to save your photo stream photos to your camera roll before deleting the account to avoid losing them.

Notes will not Sync in iTunes with iPhone 3.0

I just installed the new 3.0 OS and notes will note sync across. I use the regular Mail application and every time I select the Sync Notes checkbox in iTunes sync setup it does the sync but then deselects the box on its own. Everything else is syncing perfectly except that. I have both a small list of notes on the iPhone and notes in Mail. I assume all of these should combine. Someone please help.

I was a little confused after updating to 3.0. I kept looking in my email accounts and found nothing, it was only after clicking the mail icon in the dock did I find it in the reminders in the left hand column.

I downloaded iOS 7 and now my notes won't sync with iCloud

I downloaded iOS 7 and now my notes won't sync with iCloud. Also, all of my notes on iCloud aren't on my phone anymore, but they are still on my computer. Can somebody please advise how to fix this issue? Thank you!

Sounds like they are being overwritten by the server as soon as you reconnect. With some effort you may be able to prevent this and recover your notes if you try the steps in Winston Churchill's post here: https://discussions.apple.com/message/22600445#22600445.

IPhone 4s Notes Will Not Upload to iCloud?

I have my @me account set up on the iPhone 4s and "Notes" will not upload to the cloud.
I was able to get contacts, calenders, reminders and mail, but Notes is empty?

I think I found the problem. My iPhone Notes has multiple accounts, and I did not know this.
The choice in Notes is;
All Notes
From My Mac
iCloud
The notes on my iPhone are under the "From My Mac" section, the iCloud account has no notes.
How do I transfer the Notes on my iPhone that are in the "From My Mac" section to the iCloud section?

Sometimes a note will not let me edit it on my iPad or iPhone.

Something is happening in the notes app. It's not happening just on the iPad, so it's not actually an iPad issue but an issue with the notes app. Out of nowhere, one of the notes will not be editable. As in, when I try to type in, it won't give me a keyboard, If I select some text from another note, I can't paste it into the document in question. Anyone else experienced this? Am i missing something in the notes app?

To change the iCloud ID on your iOS devices, go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account, then sign back in with the new ID. This deletes the account and your iCloud data from your device, but not from iCloud. Provided you are signing back into the same account, your data will reappear on your device when you sign back in.
To avoid losing photo stream photos, save these to your camera roll (if not already there) before deleting the account (tap Edit, tap the photos, tap Share, tap Save to Camera Roll).

For the past couple days it has been unexpectedly and repetedly quitting. I have had to close all applications and restart my computer to open it back up. Most often, only other Application running is Safari. Occasionally I have had Pages, Calculator, Real Time Player, PDF Viewer, Preview open besides Safari and Notes.

How do I save a file to iCloud Drive and NOT have it sync to all my devices?

I have a Macbook Air with 128GB of SSD storage. I have a Mac Mini with 2TB of storage. Both are running OS X 10.10 with iCloud Drive enabled. All iOS devices are on 8.0+ with iCloud Drive. I want to upload files to my iCloud Drive from my Macbook Air and then delete them off my Air to save valuable storage space. When I try to delete a file from my iCloud Drive on my MB Air, it prompts me to say that the file will be deleted from ALL iCloud Drive devices. I just want delete it locally on the MB Air. Is there a way to do this? Do I have to do it through the iCloud Drive web interface? Can I just make a folder in iCloud Drive that does not sync to the other devices but you can still "view" the files? I just want to save files in the iCloud but not have all those files synced on my Macbook Air. Make sense? Help please! Thank you in advance.

You're going to find that pretty much every cloud storage system works in a similar way. Some, like OneDrive, will allow you to select what folders sync to and from every machine it's installed on.
Maybe something like that would fit your needs better.

Choosing not to sync Known network across devices

Hi,
in my office I have credentials to connect only 1 device to the complimentary wifi. I then choose to connect my Macbook (or iPad) to the wifi.
Unfortunately, iCloud seems to sync the information about known networks to my iPhone, and this results in the iPhone being connected to the wifi with no IP assigned, hence no internet connection, and me not noticing it until a few hours later.
Would it be possible to fix this behaviour?
Is it possible to choose not to sync known network settings across devices?
Thanks
Ale

Mozilla thunderbird will not open or sync profile on NAS device

Was running two computers with thunderbird both sync to the same profile stored on a NAS device. NAS device lost a drive but profile remained in tact. Now TB will not load the profile but when asked where the profile is located TB shows correct location and profile. Have tried reinstalling TB, restarting computer, restarting NAS device, have checked the profiles.ini file to make sure it is correct. All give the same effect, TB asks me to create new profile like I just installed the software. Any ideas??

how do you know it is not loading the profile? My guess is it is and your missing something you expect and assume it is not.

Why does my mail not sync as read across devices ios7 and mavericks

When I read an email on one device why does it not show as read on my other devices. I end up having to go through my mail three times. Is their an option I haven't clicked or is my mail not set up right.
I have various accounts running in my mac mail two gmail, two outlook.
If any one can help would greatly appreciate it. Thanks in advance.

Your email accounts have to use the imap protocol in order to sync across devices.Are all your email accounts on all devices configured to use the imap protocol?

Notes will not sync with iCloud?

OK, so I've been using the developer releases of ML for some time. During that time, even after the GM release, Notes would not sync with iCloud. I thought that the problem would be resolved once ML was released, but I still keep receiving an error when I try to turn on Notes for iCloud.
Is anyone else having this problem? Can you help me with a solution?
Thanks,
Clinton

New Notes deleted when synced to iCloud

When I add a new note on my Macbook Pro, the note is deleted as soon as it has synced with iCloud. Adding the note again results in duplicates on my iPhone.

It's always a good idea to backup first. I just saw this today you might want to check out. I'm not affiliated with nor have I tried this. It does have a demo.

HT4191 What do you do if Notes won't sync with iCloud?

I've set Notes up on my iMac, iphone 5 and iPad (3). I recall that they used to all sync with icloud just fine....but now, when I add to my Notes on my iphone, it no longer pushs to either my iMac or my iPad.
I've set everything up according to the directions from Apple...but still they will not push.
Any suggestions?
