After recent upgrade- excel notes missing

In Notes- excel sheet I used 2 weeks ago is missing. I have I cloud as back up but resetting phone only goes back a few days as a restore point. When I restore and go immediately to notes I see the file. But when I click on it it disappears? I have erased and restore twice. Same thing. Anyway to reset prior to recent update. Maybe 2 weeks.? At this point I wish I had just continued to back up to my computer monthly. Any suggestions?

Hi che-lees,


Thanks for posting. If I understand correctly, you're missing an attachment in a specific note in your Notes app; is that correct?


You mentioned iCloud backups. To clarify, were you syncing Notes with iCloud? If so, you might instead try to Use iCloud.com from a browser on a computer. When you sign in there, are you able to locate the note in question?


I hope this helps. Take care.

Hi Brendan. Thank you so much for the response. I did try logging on to I-Cloud and reviewing but the file is not there either. It was basically a excel spreadsheet I dropped into Notes. Thank goodness I had same file minus excel formatting that is still there but not updated with new add on’s since Jan. Will chock it up as a learning experience. Strange as it’s the only note missing.
