Notes lock
I had a note on my iPhone that I had a lock on. I removed the lock to do some work in the note and now it does not give me the option to put the lock back on the note. Can you please help
thanks

Hello ousoonermark,
Thanks for choosing the Apple Support Communities. If we understand correctly, you are unable to lock a note using the Notes app on your iPhone. We can understand why you'd reach out for a solution.
Here is a resource that can help.

If that doesn't help, try copying the content to a new note, lock it, then delete the old one.
Cheers!

I believe you omitted some critical information above that you supplied in a duplicate thread yesterday.
I seem to recall you mentioned you had locked this Note previously and subsequently removed its password.
What other information do you need? I had the note locked, I unlocked it, then removed the lock to do some work in the note and when I was done I went back to add the lock and then lock the note but now it does not give me the option to add the lock back on the note.
If I try to copy and paste it to a new note it does not give me the option to add a lock to the new note. If I try to add it to a note that has a lock on it already it will not paste to that note with a lock on it.
I got it fixed. I had to copy the note into Microsoft word app the copy it back to notes and was able to get a lock back on it.
thanks for all the help.
