How can I restore specific files from an older backup on my iPhone?
I deleted a Notes account and then backed up and I want the Notes back.

You cannot. A restore from a backup is all or none. That is the way it is designed.
You can't. Restoration of a backup is an all or nothing process.
Wow, that is pretty poor from Apple. There are third party software companies that can do this. Why can't they make this possible for their users?
Thanks for your information!
Why don't you ask Apple at http://www.apple.com/feedback/iphone.html
Even if you had access to the backup file, which can be done with some 3rd party software, you do not have access to the file system of the phone to upload the data. That is the "sandbox" protection of the phone. If these are notes that you sync from an email account, you should be able to restore them from there, or you would be able to recreate notes in that folder and sync to the phone.
