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")

Same thing happened to me Today. I just checked and all my notes were gone. Nothing on my phone and nothing on my backup. They only thing I changed was, I deleted my work email account from the "Mail" App.


That's where they were. I logged into my Outlook Account on my work PC, and all my notes are there under the Notes tab. So they were stored under the Outlook folder on my iPhone. I have no clue how they were tied to my Outlook account, but alas, there they were.


I'm not sure if that's anything you did, but it's one direction someone with the same issue may want to check.

Anything associated with a work email account (notes, tasks, calendar, email, contacts) are the property of your employer, and will be deleted if you delete the account.

I'm really confused about all this. I tried it all and still can't find my lost notes. I've even tried deleting email accounts and reactivate them to reload in hopes that my notes will reappear...I didn't go in and delete every single one of them..so where did they go to?? this is crazy weird! I have attached a link to my question/post below


thanks in advance!
