I lost one of my notes in the iOS7 update. How can I get it back?

If the note is in a backup then restore from that to get it back. All data created since the backup w made will be lost

restore from iCloud.

If you we're using a web mail account for notes like yahoo or gmail log into the web mail via a browser and all your notes will be in a folder called notes. That way you won't have to go through the FAFF of a restore of your device.

Go into Settings --> iCloud and see if the switch for "Notes" is ON.

I think it was ON on your last iOS 6 and is now turned OFF. If you turn it back on, your notes will re-appear.

Thanks GHPB! - I never knew the notes were in a Notes folder in your web mail. I just used your trick to help my buddy who lost some important notes.

If you want to Recover your Data from iPhone after iOS 7 Upgrade, you have 2 ways to recover them:

You can recover them by directly scan your iPhone devides;

If you've ever synced your iPhone with iTunes before, there is also another way: to recover from iTunes backup.You just need the help from an iPhone Notes Recovery tool.

My husband updated his iPhone 4 to iOS7 as well as the recent updates. Yesterday he noticed that most of his notes were missing. He did find five of them in his gmail account under notes, but these were the ones that did not get deleted. He had not put his notes on the iCloud back up and does not sync or back up on the computer. I tried all sorts of things mentioned here and on various other forums. We were not willing to download a recovery tool.

What did work was a gmail search of his trash. I typed in:trash label:notes No space after the colon and a single space after the word trash. We think all of the missing notes were there. I have no idea how they got in the trash, although he regularly deletes emails.

I hope I have been able to help someone.

If you have back up your notes, you can restore from the backup.

To restore information from a backup, use one of the following methods after connecting your iOS device to the computer with which you normally sync:
1. Right-click (or Control-click) the device and choose Restore from Backup
2. If you have a new phone, you can connect to iTunes and it will prompt to restore from your backup

If you have no backup for your data on iPhone, iPhone data recovery software is your last shot! I used iTunes Data Recovery and it worked well. It's easy to use. Just a few clicks you can get all your notes back. Here is a step by step guide for you: http://mcaf.ee/2b0h5

As we know, do backup well is a very important thing for us to recover lost data from backup.

hi Shallah, your notes were missing probably because of the upgrade of your iPhone. You've mentioned that you've backed up your iPhone, then how to retrieve deleted notes on iPhone?

1. Launce your iTunes and navigate to Edit > Preferences (on Windows) and iTunes > Preferences (on Mac).

2. Now, go to the Devices tab and make sure to check the “Prevent iPods, iPhones, and iPads from syncing automatically” option. This way you will make sure that iTunes ill not try to delete any data from your iPhone such as your songs or videos upon sync

3. Now connect your iPhone to your computer and with your iTunes open, then go to iTunes>Preferences>Devices. You will see a window with all of your backups listed on it. Click “Restore from Backup”.

If this way cannot help, why not try some recovery software? Like, iPhone notes recovery.

I cannot thank you enough for saving me today!!!!! This was exactly where my notes were hiding, you are my HERO.
