Q: How do you save the information in the Notes app to another macbook or to the iPhone

Hello teach1-77,

After reviewing your post, it sounds like you want to save Note across other devices. I would recommend that you read this article, it may be able to help the issue.

You can use iCloud to keep Notes between iOS and Mac's the same. 

iCloud: Notes overview

When you make changes using Notes on iCloud.com, they appear automatically in the Notes app on your iOS devices and Mac computers where you set up iCloud for Notes, and vice versa.

Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
Have a nice day
