iPhone 4 - Notes disappearing

Look in your iPhone's email. My iPhone 4 created a "Notes" folder all on its own and they were all safely there. This was very good since I had some important info. I did not do anything to create this nor do I know why it happened. I'm just glad I found them. Hope this helps.

THIS MIGHT HELP WITH THE PROBLEM OF IPHONE/IPAD NOTES DISAPPEARING - I had this problem on both my iPhone 3G, iPhone 4S and iPad 2 where all of my notes or part of them would disappear. Today I logged into my AOL email account online and I clicked on the NOTES folder and guess what? ALL OF MY LOST NOTES ARE THERE! Woo! Hoo! (spoken in the voice of Homer Simpson) Woo! Hoo! This might not be the case for you but check your email providers and your device to see if you are syncing to the NOTES folder with your email provider. I was so surprised when I found all of my lost notes in my AOL NOTES folder online. Goodness! 🙂

GracieGMG was right in my case - I opened my yahoo email on my phone and scrolled down and sure enough, there was a folder labeled "Notes" and there they were! Funny, they weren't in my icloud account.

Thanks for the info!

I was having the same or similar problem, with the added detail that it was when I synced my iPhone to my computer that a few of my Notes would revert to previous versions.

I finally found what I think is a solution. On my Mac (OS 10.6.8), it turns out there were a few "sync conflicts". iTunes gave me no indication of this, but I noticed that there was an exclamation mark in the MobileMe Sync menu. This menu is found in the Finder at the top right, up near the volume icon and wifi strength indicator. The menu icon looks like two little arrows chasing each other in a circle.

Opening up this menu and reviewing conflicts, I found that the notes that kept reverting on me were in conflict. In fact the newer version of the note with the extra info was still there, but I had to "choose" it as the default, and then select 'Continue'.

After syncing again it now it seems that the Notes on my iPhone now contain the extra text that kept disappearing.

I'm not sure how I developed these Sync conflicts in the first place, but thought I would post my story in the hopes it helps someone.

(PS - I had already disabled Note syncing to any email accounts, so that was not my problem)

If you get an email copy of the note and delete it in your email, it will delete it off your iPhone simultaneously.

thanks GGMG

i noticed my iphone 4 that i got in march has created a notes folder in the two gmail (personal and school) accounts that i have set up on the phone as exhange accounts. it did not create a notes folder in my true exchange (work) email.

one 'missing' was in the school email, two others were in the personal email. weird.

i just wish they would stay on the **** phone so i cound use them like real running lists.

oh and notes are turned off in icloud.

thoughts anyone?

When you write a note, the next time you sync with your computer it emails you that note. If you then delete that email, the next time it syncs it deletes the note from your Iphone.

Try putting your notes into reminders

Best of luck

Hi

Sometimes after adding a new Note and it's saved, the note will disappear the next time when going into Notes?

iPhone 5, iOS 6
