Q: I can not sync notes between my Laptop and iPhone 6S

I have 9.3.2 on my iphone, and 10.11.5 El Capitan on my laptop.  Nothing is syncing, and hasn't for a while.  I can't even seem to get it to sync with my icloud !!!

 

Any suggestions?

 

thanks,

Keith

    could it be that my iphone is using my .me account and the laptop is the .mac account?

    Only notes in the iCloud category will sync with iCloud. If you have notes under On My Mac, or synced with some other network service, they won't sync.

    If notes that should sync do not, please open the iCloud pane in System Preferences. Make sure that you're signed in to iCloud with the right Apple ID and that the box marked Notes is checked. Uncheck the box and check it again.
