Help! I opened my Notes app today & watched the recent ones disappear!

I'm posting in the hopes that someone can help me retrieve my notes. When I opened my Notes App today, I could see all my notes and then I watched the recent ones quickly disappear. All notes from Dec 2011 & Jan 2012 are gone. I was at an important meeting last week & took many notes. Today I was opening the notes so that I could review & forward the information to my collegues. Since the notes typically sync to my iphone, too, I opened it and watched them do the same disappearing act.


HELP!!

Months of critically important notes just vanished. This is disgusting. Apple needs to get a cure for this IMMEDIATELY. I no longer trust my notes.


a) I would NEVER use iCloud: never activated - never will be.

b) I don't own a Mac computer - so no connection there.

c) I never have and never will connect my iPad3 to any computer to back it up.


This is pathetic. I will be acquiring a new note app and forgetting the default app. This is BS in the first degree.

Months of notes just vanish.

Let me add a comment here for the sake of everryone who takes important notes. Screen shot them and then save them in another program that has a passcode such as GoodReader. There - no one can get to them. Granted you can't add to the note when in the Jpeg form but at least you won't lose them. The internet is filled with the Apple losing note. Hey Apple: You need to get your stuff together like yesterday!
