How do I recover lost notes from my iPad?

Hi,


When I type something on my notes and come back to it later, it somehow for some strange reason disappeared. How do I recover my notes from my iPad?


Any help would be greatly appreciated


Thanks!

If you synced your iPad with itunes.
to restore from a previous backup, be sure to go into iTunes before you
connect your iPad and set iTunes > preferences > devices
and check “prevent iPad from syncing automatically.This ensures we don’t erase the previously stored backup.
You can also use iTunes to recover only your lost iPad notes without having to restore the whole device. Here is how to do that: How to recover notes from iPad

I've done some research for you, and I came accross good and bad news for you. The good news is, you can recover iPad notes. There are TUTORIALS available, click on it. It's even better news if you had an iTunes backup, which means you can simply restore. But if you had no backup, you cannot recover, unless you go for a data recovery software, which is not free.
