How do I get my Notes to iCloud?
How do I sync my old Notes to iCloud?
I can only sync new Notes under my iCloud account but i have tons of old Notes. How do I get them over to iCloud?
Thanks in advance for any advise.

Question marked as
This is what you should be seeing:
This is my iCloud Notes view. I click on the left arrow to go to my folders view:
In my Folders View, I select "On My Phone" notes:
Notes display, I select Edit:
Once Edit is selected, I see Move All/Delete All options at the bottom of the screen, and radio buttons next to each note to allow individual selection, if desired:
If I select specific Notes, the Move All/Delete All change to Move To/Delete:
Once I select the "Move" option it goes back to the folder view allowing me to select another folder to move the notes to, or to create a new one in either iCloud or on my Phone:
So, you are running iOS 9.3.1, but have you upgraded your Notes yet? When you go to the New Note option, do you see the option to Add a photo, or to write on the note manually?

All of these suggestions seem extremely helpful except that I have a PC...does anyone know a similar method to dragging the iphone notes to icloud on a PC???
Notes is no longer in iTunes 11 under "other" - so how do i get all my old notes to sync with my MAC so i can then get them into the cloud?
simply
go to the note
select all
copy
add new note in icloud
paste
done
thank you

you got me 😊 glad there's this handy edit feature.
Go into settings on iphone, scroll down to the icloud symbol. open it. scroll down to notes, turn it on.

Just use CopyTrans Contacts :

you can copy/paste your old notes to new notes. sync them to icloud and then erase the old ones.
U Can copy and paste into new notes.. Or way faster just update them. Add a space or delete a letter, click done, and it will update and sync and your notes will appear viola!
Does this rely on upgrading to the "new" notes? I've done exactly as above but the only option when tapping "edit" in "local notes" is "delete all".
Yes, I did upgrade to the new notes first.
