iOS7 BUG? ALL MY NOTES disappeared. WHY?

I did NOTHING unusual today. Went to work, lunch time, got my phone out. Wanted to check some notes.


Opened the app and..........ALL NOTES ARE GONE.


Wow!


Screw APPLE. This is pathetic (as well as your new iOS "look")

I opened the app and all of my notes disappeared except a few. I looked in my yahoo and they weren't there. I then checked settings, and turned off the notes in yahoo to see if they'd reappear. This only deleted the few remaining notes. This isn't a yahoo thing. I can't believe the problems I've had since updating to ios7. So many of my settings were reversed just because I updated and now this. I've spent more time researching how to turn off the new bs features than I have actually enjoyed the iPad. The documents I lost in notes is overwhelming. I cannot believe how pathetic this update was. I will never again use an apple product after I find a buyer for this ****** iPad. Great job apple.

I have to agree with you. This is not a Yahoo problem as stated before. Notes are directed to any email that you run.Gmail is another. Apple has created the problem by allowing the default settings to be "ON" deflecting the notes to email accounts........That is for the Lucky Ones Mine briefly appeared when I did a restore from a backup. My backup is on my computer. Yours maybe in a backup on your computer or icloud. Go to icloud.com and sign in and have a look there as well. Its unbelieveable that they can be in so many places. There are a couple "Note" Apps that Im seriously going to look at.

Be sure you are looking in the yahoo FOLDER called 'Notes' not the yahoo 'notepad' app. I made this mistake too.


Turning off sync to yahoo resolves the problem of the notes disappearing from the iphone but syncing to yahoo allows me to sync them to both my iphone and my ipad. If I disable the sync I disable this function.


I need to know why it deletes them intermittently, Why not all of the notes, Why there are a couple hundred notes in yahoo. Most of them are notes I deleted from my iphone/ipad notes app.


And how to resolve the issue so the app syncs accross both devices with or without Yahoo.


Thanks,

Okay guys.. Maybe some really screwed the notes by deleting it anything.. but 1st of all, DO NOT CHANGE ANYTHING!! My notes was there a moment, and then when i open back my notes, it was clean. So, i googled quickly n came here. There was the setting suggestion, good that it works for people. Please back up before anything. I just restarted my ipad.. AHH..it was there again!!
