Some of my notes disappeared. How can I retrieve them?

Some of my notes disappeared without even erasing them. How can I retrieve them?

I'm afraid to say that all of my notes disappeared yesterday, on my iPhone and iPad because they were connected by iCloud. I guess they are in the great blue yonder somewhere. The annoying thing is that I am a songwriter and use notes to jot down lines as they come into my head.and suffice to say that I have lost a great deal of material. To make matters worse, I haven't even updated my phone to ios6, only my iPad not wanting to put all of my eggs in one basket so to speak.

  • All my reminders have disappeared - how can I retrieve them?

    I use the reminders app across 2 iMacs, an iPhone and an iPad. Everything has always synced beautifully, until now: all my personal reminders have disappeared (and there were a lot of them). On my home iMac,  iPhone and  iPad, the reminder icon shows a red circle with '3' in it. When I go to the app, those 3 reminders are tasks from my Outlook Exchange calendar. On my work iMac, the reminder icon shows a red circle with '52' in it - that's roughly the correct number of uncompleted reminders in my list. But when I go to the application, they're not there - all I can see are the 3 Exchange tasks. So where have they gone?? The work iMac is suggesting that they still exist... somewhere. If I log directly into my iCloud account, there's still no sign of them.

    Are you thinking that the list might have existed locally, one one of my devices, without me realising this was the case? It's possible, I guess. But I added the various reminders from all my different devices - how would that be possible if the list only 'existed' on one of them? I also don't know how I would accidentally have deleted the entire thing. And it doesn't explain why my work iMac is still showing '52' in the Reminders icon - this is the straw I'm clutching at!
    I've got various backups - a full backup of my iPhone which is about two weeks old; I already tried restoring the iPhone from this, and it made no difference. I'm  running Time Machine on my home iMac. And this morning, I exported copies of both iCal and Reminders on my work iMac (just in case that's where a local version of the reminder list exists).

  • I've just upgraded Aperture and seem to have lost all the folders and albums. How can I retrieve them?

    When I opened Aperture a dialogue box appeared suggesting I upgrade. The upgrade was done, and now all the folders and albums previously in Aperture have disappeared. How can I retrieve them?

    . The upgrade was done, and now all the folders and albums previously in Aperture have disappeared. How can I retrieve them?
    When you opened your new Version of Aperture you probably created a new, empty  Aperture Library.
    Do you remember where your original Aperture Library is located? Usually it resides in your "Pictures" folder, and is named something.aplibrary. If you do not remember where it is, search with Spotlight for ".aplibrary".
    Quit Aperture, if it is running, then select your old Aperture Library and double click it to open it. This will launch Aperture on your correct library, and you should see all your projects and albums again.

  • I just downloaded to the most recent version of Firefox, and lost my Delicious bookmarks. How can I retrieve them?

    I just downloaded the most recent version of Firefox, and my Delicious bookmarks have disappeared. How can I retrieve them?

    First, are you positive it is really not there?  Have you looked in your iTunes folder in your Music folder, and in the media folders there? Do you see your media files?
    If your media are gone it is a lot easier to restore from a proper computer backup.  Your i-device was not designed for unique storage of your media. It is not a backup device and media transfer was planned with you maintaining a master copy of your media on a computer which is itself properly backed up against loss. Syncing is one way, computer to device, updating the device content to the content on the computer, not updating or restoring content on a computer. The exception is iTunes Store purchases which can be transferred to a computer.
    iTunes Store: Transferring purchases from your iOS device or iPod to a computer - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1848 - only purchases from iTunes Store
    For transferring other items from an i-device to a computer you will have to use third party commercial software.  See this document by turingtest2: Recovering your iTunes library from your iPod or iOS device - https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-3991

    Here is a post I assembled for another with a similar problem:
    Unfortunately you got caught up in the minor miracle of Rosetta.  Originally licensed by Apple when it migrated from the PowerPC CPU platform that it had used from the mid-1990's until the Intel CPU platform in 2006, Rosetta allowed Mac users to continue to use their library of PPC software transparently in emulation.
    However, Apple's license to continue to use this technology expired with new releases of OS X commencing with Lion (and now Mountain Lion).  While educational efforts have been made over the last 6 years, the fact is that Rosetta was SO successful that many users were caught unaware UNTIL they upgraded to Lion or Mountain Lion.
    Workarounds:
    1. If your Mac will support it, restore OS X Snow Leopard;
    2.  If your Mac will support it, partition your hard drive or add an external hard drive and install Snow Leopard into it and use the "dual-boot" method to choose between your PPC software or Lion/Mt. Lion;
    3. Upgrade to an Intel compatible versions of your software, or find alternatives that will open your data files;
    3.  Install Snow Leopard (with Rosetta) into Parallels:

    Full Snow Leopard installation instructions here:
    http://forums.macrumors.com/showthread.php?t=1365439
    NOTE: STEP ONE of the instructions must currently be completed on a Snow Leopard or Lion Mac and the resulting modified Snow Leopard.cdr install file can then be moved over to your Mountain Lion Mac for completion of the remaining steps.
    NOTE 2:  Computer games with complex, 3D or fast motion graphics make not work well or at all in virtualization.

  • Hello - When I installed OSX 10.8 on my iMac, all my bookmarks and the bookmarks bar were gone.  On my two MB Pros they carried over with no problem.  How can I retrieve them?  Thanks

    Make an archive copy from one of the MBP (File>Export Bookmarks).  You may not need it, but if things sync the wrong way on iCloud, you may lose them on all your devices.
    Then check out iCloud on the iMac. Is your stuff on iCloud.com?  Maybe try logging out and back in again.
