I accidentally wrote over a portion of some important text in a note. From what I've read the only way to restore a note to a previous version is through Time machine. I have Time Machine back ups but have never actually used them. I'm in Ventura 13.6.1. How would I restore just my notes from an old Time Machine back up without effecting the rest of my computer info.
Thanks in advance.
I figured it out. I made a back up of my current notestore.squlite, Notestore.sqlite-shm and Notestore.sqlite-wall files that were in user-library-group containers- group.com.apple.notes. and save them to an external drive.
I then moved those same files from a month old Time Machine back up into the Group Containers folder on my desktop, replacing the current ones. I was able to access the note that I partially deleted, I then reversed the process and added the current files back in from the external drive.
