Why is there an option for Notes Syncing?

Hello,
Looking to clear something up about Note Syncing. Why is this an option? When I make notes in Mail.app they live online in my inbox or other online subfolder and I can get at them from any of my other Macs that have Mail.app set to check that account.
What am I missing here? Is the Notes sync item in mobile me syncing preferences for syncing offline notes, ones that you put in an "on my mac" folder? Why wouldn't you just put these notes up in the cloud like I do...it seems like there is no upside to this note-syncing ability.
I have looked around for an official textual description of what Notes syncing is for but I can't find one. It seems to solve a problem that doesn't really exist. Can someone straighten me out, maybe there is a good reason why I should actually be syncing notes?
Thanks!

Yeah, I did find a lot of people posting that they wished for this feature for iPhone and it has been promised in the past. I do not have an iPhone, so the questions would be if you put a note in your inbox, how does the iPhone currently treat it when you check your mail? It would still seem that sync is unnecessary 'cuz the note still lives in the cloud. Ha ha I guess the bottom line is that I am not really trying to solve a problem, with or without Notes Syncing tuned on I can get to my Mail notes anywhere that I have Mail.app setup...but I was just wondering if I was missing out on something, you know, conceptually...

    Hello,
    We are aware if the 'black box' issue with the shim installer (downloaded from get.adobe.com/flashplayer), however, this should not be the case with the full installer.  The links for the full installers are posted at the bottom of the Installation problems | Flash Player | Windows page, in the 'Still having problems' section.

  • Why is there no option for a Black ipod anymore/ I've seen the option on other websites, but this website no longer has it. And if I get the Black iPod Touch from another website, will it be old and IOS 6, because the option went away long before IOS 7

    I want a Black iPod Touch Fifth Generation, however I do not see an option for it. I have seen the option before, but it is no longer there, just like the option for a White iPod Touch. I still see the option for a Black iPod on other websites, such as Amazon. I wonder if it will not be updated and slower if I buy it from another websites that sell a Black version, because I think Apple might have eliminated that option for the iPod Touch Fifth Generation.

    No there is the option for a black iPod touch 5th Generation. However, they call it Space Gray now. It provides a black front screen and a slightly gray colored aluminum on the back.

  • Is there any option for ipod syncing?

    ok, so i just moved over about 17000 images from i photo and after a 7 hour import, i realised, i may not be able to sync to my ipod. is this true?

    Hmm interesting question. I too am wondering this, as I'd like to get an iPod for the field eventually (realizing that the iPod doesn't display RAW images).
    I believe that the sync happens with iTunes, so it's very possible that it only works with the iPhoto library. Maybe an update to iTunes is needed before this will work.

  • HT2534 why is there no option of "none" when signing up in iTunes for the billing part

    why is there no option as "none" for the billing account in iphone5?

    If you only want the free apps, take a look here:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2534
    Read the steps carefully as the order in which you follow them is  critical. Note that you can do this only when creating a new Apple ID. You cannot use an existing ID. 
    You will of course not be able to get anything other than the free apps without entering in some sort of payment method (credit card, prepaid iTunes card, gift certificate, etc.)
    Regards.

  • After installing Mountain Lion, why is there Yahoo access for one user but not another?--both are administrators.

    After installing Mountain Lion, why is there Yahoo access for one user but not another?--both are administrators.

    We've had several instances where we have had to run chkdsk on arrays with over 1m files. Average completion time is approximately 72 hours. The maximum downtime window they have available is the 64 hour weekend window. File sizes and number of files were
    much smaller then than they are now.
    The idea, in theory, was to use VHDs to compartmentalize the data into smaller volumes which could be more easily managed. It would also improve performance when transferring these compartments of data as they would use sequential read/write rather than
    fragmented/random. This idea was never fleshed out in entirety, they don't split data up into little containers, but simply into big ones per project. Hence the 11m files in one container that I am currently trying to diagnose.
    Some other important facts: The VHD in question is mounted in B:/project/ as this server also allows remote workers to log in, but they are restricted to see only data in E:. Disks A-D are hidden via group policy.
    Update: icacls is failing on a large number of files within this dataset. I counted the path characters to ensure it wasn't the 255 character limit I was encountering and verified that the paths being blocked are only about 150 characters long. Once it finishes,
    I'll have to try taking ownership and then re-running it. At this point I still have no idea how long to expect. I'm running out of time as the environment will be in use again at 9AM tomorrow morning.

    As noted, you are not addressing Apple here. Submit your feedback directly to Apple using the appropriate link on the Feedback page:

    Good idea not to jailbreak.

  • Why is there no option to "hide sensitive notifications" on my phone?

    Why is there no option to "hide sensitive notifications" on my phone? (LG G3) I just updated to Lollipop, and it now it shows all my emails and texts on the lock screen which is not cool. When I tried to search for a fix, I found that you need to choose "hide sensitive notifications" under the "Sound and Notification" settings, but that option is nowhere to be found. Help!

    I have figured it out. It's really dumb. So you need to set the locking mechanism (pattern, code, whatever). Then go to Settings>Sound and Notification>Lock Screen> Show All Notifications. Then when you go to Settings>Sound and Notification>Apps and pick something like "messages", the "sensitive" option appears.
    So essentially if you choose the "Hide Sensitive Only" it seems to think that all are sensitive and you can't pick and choose. But if you "Show All", it will let you decide what is sensitive. Very complicated.

  • Is there an option for Coverflow on your IPOD?

    When you transfer just one song from ITUNES,do you have to have the cover for that song on your IPOD or is there a way not to have it? Albums are good but a cover for one song .............Well.....

    Is there an option for Coverflow on your IPOD?.
    On newer iPod, yes.

    Why wouldn't you have cover, even if it's only one song?

  • Option to NOT sync album artwork?

    I used to have the option to not sync the album artwork, just the songs. But i can't find that option anymore. The artwork is taking up too much space on my iPod Gen. 2 and I want to free that space up for songs. Help please??

    That option has been removed from iTunes. I seem to recall that there is some way to not sync it that involves jumping through some hoops. You're best bet would be to use the Search Discussions box up to the right and search for it. It has been discussed quite extensively.
    Best of luck.

  • Why is there no scaling for high resolution monitors in Adobe Bridge CC?

    Why is there no scaling for high resolution monitors in Adobe Bridge CC?

    Inconsistency between or among applications in the artificial "suites" should come as no surprise.
    The "suite" concept is a fabrication of Adobe marketing and bean-counting types.  The engineering teams are totally independent of each other, they are not only in different buildings but in different cities and states of the American Union, even in different countries.
    The fact that they have little if any communication among them is highlighted by requests occasionally made in these forums by top Adobe engineers to let the other teams know when there are problems in one application that impact our workflow in another one.

  • Why is there no support for RTF files in Pages?

    Why is there no support for RTF files in Pages?
    This is nuts!

    You are not alone.
    Actions speak louder than words, but Apple does manage to still distract many from what is self evident before them.
    I am astonished by those who swear that non-existent features, or features that pre-exist the current version make Pages 5.2 a major upgrade.
    An affect that does seem to wear off with familiarity, as each version of Pages 5 gets a boost in the App Store, only to see the disapproval rating surge back again.
    Pages was always one of the top purchases in the App Store, now it doesn't even rate.

  • Why in the layer options does not appear to me "video layers" why? help

    why in the layer options does not appear to me
    "video layers" why? help
    I need to encourage and not because my computer does not appear to me and others computers that has the same photoshop cc if that option appears. It would be helpful to know what thanks

    99.9% of the time, the cause of this issue is the fact the phone was jailbroken/hacked to unlock it for use on networks other than the network the phone was originally locked to. Apple maintains a database of officially unlocked iPhones, and when Apple's servers detect phones such as yours, activation stops & you get the message you got.
    So, either get a sim card from the carrier your phone was originally locked to, or get it officially unlocked, if you want to activate it. Because it appears that it was not officially unlocked
