Sync Notes?

Hello.


My client uses Notes in his iPhone 4S' iOS5. How come iTunes doesn't synchronize them to his 13.3" MacBook Pro with Mac OS X 10.8.3 and all updates? We didn't see any settings for Notes in iTunes. Mac OS X's Notes seem to want accounts? Why? We just want to do it locally.


Thank you in advance. 🙂

iPhone 4S, OS X Mountain Lion (10.8.3), 13.3" MacBook Pro (9,2/MD102ll/A)

Hi Eric,


Unless I'm mistaken, the article indicates that Notes cannot be sync'd via iTunes on OSX 10.8 or later.... so wouldn't that require iCloud to sync them for this poster?


Cheers,

That is how I am reading it. So Apple is forcing users to use do it online. 😟 Is there a third party program that can then?

I'm not aware of any since I use iCloud. And I have to tell you that instantaneous updates on all of my devices when I update my notes, is a great thing....


Just in case you are reconsidering, here is Apple's article on the security of your data when using iCloud:

Thanks. Hopefully, others will come up other ideas.

Take a look at this link, http://www.markspace.com/products/iphone/missing-sync-iphone-requirements.html

Am I reading this correctly that my client needs to download the free Fliq Notes App and buy this Missing Sync for Mac OS X? If so, then I am confused why Fliq Notes app is needed. Shouldn't Missing Sync access iOS' Notes directly?
