Recover notes after ios8 update

I have an iphone 4s. I updated to i0s 8.0.2 and it deleted all of my notes.  I have no backup to go off of, nothing on the cloud, and a few (from December of last year until the present) saved in gmail.  I tried the 3rd party recovery sites which found nothing.  I need all of them, because they are conversations, thoughts, and statements by my father who died of pancreatic cancer in September of last year.  Any help would be greatly appreciated.  Thank you.

Contacts are not part of your backup (except for recent call history).  Your contacts came back probably because you're syncing them to Gmail or some other email service.
Your Camera Roll photos are part of your backup, and your Photo Stream is in iCloud, so those would be expected to come back.
As for your notes, were you syncing notes to any of your email accounts?  Did you have more than one email account using notes?  Check them all, since if they did not come back from your backup that means they were syncing to something. The only notes that get into your backup are notes that are only on the device (i.e. not synced to any other source).

  • Can not update apps after IOS8 update on iPhone 4s

    Can not update apps after IOS8 update on iPhone 4s
    I can no longer update apps on my iPhone 4s after the IOS 8 update. The IOS 8 update took a very long time to complete, maybe 12 hours, and afterwards, it worked but updating packages were very slow. Package updates have since been problematic and about 4 days ago, it stopped being able to update any packages. I click on them to update and they never make any progress. I have 2.8 Gbytes free and I keep deleting more and more packages, pictures, etc. It seems like, from the amount of stuff that I have deleted, I should have more than 2.8 Gbytes free.
    Is anyone else having this kind of problem?

    16GB iPhone4: Go to Settings, scroll down to iTunes & App Stores and touch. At the top of the next page it shows: Apple ID. Touch this. Select Sign Out. Your Apple ID will go away. Re-enter Apple ID and password. Try App Store again.
       Other solutions were to go to Settings:General:Date&Time and turn off auto-update, then change date to next year. This didn't work for me, nor a lot of other users on the forums. It took reading a lot of threads to find the log-out, log-in solution. Even on the official Apple Website all I saw was: Make sure your connection is working, battery is charged, desktop is plugged in when you try to sync. OK I exaggerate, but with all the users posting this problem, you'd think they'd post their solutions when they work with a Tech Help call.

  • My Amazon Prime Instant Video App does not show airplay symbol after IOS8 update

    JUst found out that the Amazon Prime Instant video app lost the airplay possibility after IOS8 update on ipad and iphone.
    Am I wrong or is there something I need to adjust on my devices?

    Airplay is found by swiping up and enabling via control centre
    Use AirPlay to wirelessly stream content from your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch
    If AirPlay functionality has been removed or if there is error then it is up to the developer to fix

    Apple Composite AV Cable no longer working on Ipad2 after ios8 update. I'm only getting sound no video can you revert back to ios7 or buy a cable that will work any help would be appreciated
    Thanks

    The 30-pin connector on the iPhone 4 dock might not have all the connector pins to do video.
    I'm 99% sure the Universal Dock does have the pins (and therefor supports video out).

  • Push email not working after ios8 update

    I have updated my iPad air and my iPhone 5 to ios8.
    Both devices have the same email accounts.
    The ipad email push works fine after the update on all accounts.
    But, on the iPhone I do not get email update for hours unless I physically go into the email app.
    Is there a fix for this issue? I have tried everything from deleting and re-establishing the accounts. This happened on ios6 and 7.
    Come on Apple, get with the program!

  • How can i get my notes back after ios8 update has wiped them all?

    After updating my ipad to my horror my notes have all been deleted
    It's really important to me to get them back. My daughter died 8 weeks ago and there were things that we wrote together on there. Irreplaceable things.
    Why didnt apple warn of this before releasing the update
    Also hate what its done to my photos.  Again no warning
    i followed advice from these forums and plugged into laptop and itunes and restored.
    I now have even less.  Half my apps have now gone too

    Hi Clembo60,
    Welcome to the Apple Support Communities!
    I understand that your text messages are missing after an update on your iPhone. If you have a backup of your device on either iTunes or iCloud, you can restore from that backup and bring your information back. Please review the attached article, which covers how to back up and restore from backups, for more information. 
    Back up and restore your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch using iCloud or iTunes - Apple Support
    Best regards,

  • Sounds in apps not working after iOS8 update

    Has anyone else had issues with apps not playing sound after the update? I have a 5S and have reset it with no luck; sound plays through earbuds just fine, also plays the typing sound without earbuds. Seeing this with YouTube and Facebook as well as other embedded media.

  • What happened to dictionary function after iOS8 update?

    After  recent update to iOS8 I no longer have the ability to highlight a word and retrieve a definition via the dictionary on my iPad.

    Hi Marianne
    I know the ACR update is just a few hours old, but I have not seen anyone else mention the problem you describe.  It certainly hasn't made any difference to my system.  Can we try and pin your problem down a bit?
    Photoshop version?
    Operating system?
    Perhaps upload a screen grab of your entire workspace showing the Layers and History panels, and drag them out show all layers, and as much history as available.
    Does this happen with all images? Have you restarted the computer as well as Photoshop?  Are you absolutely sure that Preferences was reset? (It sounds like you deleted the preferences file rather than use the start up method)
    Reset Preferences
    Windows — Hold down Shift Ctrl Alt immediately after starting Photoshop
    Mac — Hold down Shift Cmd Opt immediately after starting Photoshop

  • Had to restore iPad2 from itunes after IOS8 update with no option to restore from icloud backup.

    since i lost everything on my ipad due to the IOS8 update, i thought i'd try to do a manual restore from my icloud backup, but the only backup listed is one from the day i did the update/restore. i'm pretty sure it's not going to help me recover everything that i lost since it's only 1.8gb. i know my ipad backed up to the cloud every couple of weeks when i charged it, so shouldn't there be other backup dates available? also, when i go to settings>icloud>manage storage>ipad, the backup options list every app i had on my ipad before the update/restore, but those apps are no longer on my ipad, so i'm not sure why they're listed in the backup options. apparently i can't even contact apple to help with this issue without paying $20, and i live 2 hours away from the closest apple store. any thoughts?

    My philosophy is if you lost everything already anyway, you have nothing to lose by restoring the iCloud backup at this point. Besides, your apps will download from iCloud, if you were truly backing up with iCloud and not using iTunes. Apps are not part of the backup, app data is.
    I would give it a try. If it doesn't work out, you are no worse off than you are now. But - your apps should still all download from the cloud even if the data is gone.

  • Callers cannot hear me after Ios8 update

    After I updated to iOs8, i immediately began getting a message that this charger or accessory is not compatible with this Iphone. However, nothing was plugged in! After a few hours the message stopped. But now callers cannot hear me, although I can hear them. Callers are able to hear me when I put the speakerphone on, which is not an acceptable solution to the problem, i do not want to use speaker phone for every call. I have try the following
    - Power the device off then back on
    - Hard reset the device using home/sleep buttons
    - Checked the headset jack for debris
    - Adjusted the volume several times while on a test call
    - reset the network settings
    - toggled noise cancellation option while on a test call
    Probably more than what's listed, i've been non stop for more than 24 hours! I have googled for a solution, but I am not seeing others with the same issues as mine after updating to iOS8, some have had the same issue with previous updates of different iOS versions. And I have tried all of the solutions that they were given. I feel like I have tried everything.
    I do not want to downgrade back to iOS7, I'm not sure I even can.
    So, any other suggestions? Should i just take the Device to my local Apple store and let them sort it out? I have an Iphone 5s that is only a few months old (probably less than 6)
    Thank you for any help!

    If never jailboken/hacked, restore using iTunes, first also restoring a backup and if needed as new (without using a backup)
    Use iTunes to restore your iOS device to factory settings

    Hello there, Debbie479.
    The following Knowledge Base article provides some great steps that help when an application(s) isn't functioning as expected or quits unexpectedly.
    With the "Restart" step, make sure you go through and close all applications that are running. If after performing the "Restart" step, you find the issue persists, try the reset portion of the instructions:
    iOS: An app you installed unexpectedly quits, stops responding, or won’t open
