Unable to open any of my saved notes in Notes app after Sequoia update

Hello,


Since I updated my 2020 MacBook Air to macOS Sequoia, the Notes app has not been functioning properly. I am unable to open any of my saved notes; I click on them, but nothing happens. I have restarted both my laptop and the app several times, but the issue persists. I would appreciate any guidance on how to resolve this problem.


Thank you very much.

I seem to have found a little workaround at least.

I have this same problem. With or without VPN, with or without the login settings as mentioned by the earlier replyer.

What I have now found is that if I choose galery view instead of list view (see screenprint), I get to see at least the titles of my notes.


I can then doubleclick on a note, and then it opens! And it also syncs with iCloud.


It's the list view that seems completely broken. Galery isn't perfect at all either but at least I can see the titles and doubleclick them.


And: if all else fails, you could also log into the web version via Apple's icloud url - for as long as Apple hasn't fixed this annoying bug. So you can at least continue writing your notes.
