Troubleshooting Lost Notes:

A. Access Restrictions:

Does someone else have access to your devices and you account? Or is this always stored in a private location? IF someone else has access to it, then they could be accessed.


B. Where to Go:


and...


C. Apple Contact Info:

  • Contact Us - Choose Locations
  • Proceed from there, as necessary
  • Why the Wait: Phone calls are taking a bit to go through at the moment, due to lots of calls. With the Coronavirus Pandemic, many are at home at the moment, with much time on their hands to contact Apple. So, just stay on the line, and you will get through :)

Contact Apple Support

If you want to know more, then I emphasize that you contact Apple Support, themselves. These are user-to-user forums. No one here would know what this happened. So, ask them why this may have happened. Here is their info:
