Outlook Notes Sync

I switched from the iPhone 5 to the iPhone 6s. I was always using my notes to sync between my phone and outlook. However after the upgrade the options in itunes to sync the notes with outlook is no longer present. My iCloud settings is not set to backup the notes. Nevertheless I can't find how to get that option back.

Can itunes still sync the notes with outlook?

Is there some setting I need to adjust?

iPhone 6, iOS 9.3.1

Hey there Jay6054,


I’d like to help answer your questions regarding syncing your notes with Outlook. It sounds like your iPhone 5 may have been using an older iOS version that supports this. Syncing notes via USB isn’t supported with iOS 9 and later.


Instead of using this method, you can set up your Outlook mail account using iOS Mail:

Add an email account to your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch - Apple Support


Alternatively, you can also use the Outlook app for iOS:

Set up email on an iPhone or iPad (iOS device) - Office Support


Regards.

PPerhaps this will help as a solution alternativedepending on the number of Outlook Note doc's you need to save. For many years I used MS Outlook and Office for practically everything with PCs. Then in 2010 I began converting to Apple, Notes app, Pages, Numbers and Word. In late 2011 I bought a new iMac 21.5 and began learning how to sync, struggling a lot with iCloud. But that is all behind me. My iOS Notes app has 250 documents and now syncs through iCloud for all three devices, Mac, Pad and Phone 6s. Side point: I have tried to learn Evernote but have not succeeded yet.

i Will be interested in what other users contribute to this issue.
