Three ways to recover deleted notes on iPhone
Published on December 12 2013
"Is it possible to recover an accidentally deleted 'Note' file on an iPhone? So I've had a note file on my iPhone 4 for several years now, everytime I hear a song I like I write it in the note and every once and a while I sit down and take some time to lighten the list by downloading some of the songs I've written down. Now today I was doing that and as I was deleting some of the songs off the list that I wrote previously and I accidentally deleted the entire note with around 250 great songs I still needed to download at some point... So my question geniuses, how if at all possible do I recover a deleted note" ----- Answers Yahoo
It is not difficult to recover deleted notes on iPhone. If you have ever backup your iPhone content with iTunes, then, you can restore from iTunes backup. If you backup your iPhone with iCloud, then, you can also retrieve from iCloud backup. If you never backup your iPhone with either iTunes or iCloud, then, don't worry, you can still recover your deleted notes from iPhone directly with a third-party iPhone Data Recovery such as Wondershare Dr. Fone for iOS.
And below we will show you how to recover deleted notes on iPhone with the three methods mentioned above:
Solution 1: Restore deleted iPhone notes from iTunes backup
you've synced your iPhone with iTunes after you created the lost notes on it and you didn't sync your iPhone with iTunes after you lost the notes on it. Then, you can restore your deleted notes on iPhone with iTunes backup.
Simply following the following instructions:
Tips: You need to disable auto synchronization on iTunes:
For Windows users: Run iTunes, go to < Edit < Preferences... < Devices.
For Mac users: Run iTunes, go to < iTunes < Preferences... < Devices
When arriving there, check the box to prevent your iPhone from syncing automatically. After it, connect your iPhone to the computer and click Restore Backup... on the main window of iTunes (or right click on your iPhone's name showing on the left side of the iTunes window and choose Restore from Backup...). Then choose the backup file for your iPhone and click on the Restore button.
If you have no idea about the content of the backup, you can try Wondershare Dr.Fone for iOS, a powerful iPhone data recovery software that allows you to preview and selectively recover whatever you want from iTunes backup with the instructions below:
Run Dr. Fone for iOS and then choose "Recover from iTunes Backup File", and then, you will see the following main interface:
Select the backup of your iPhone and click "Start Scan" to scan and extract the specific contents in it
After the scan, you can check and preview details of your iPhone notes, and save them on your computer by clicking "Recover".
Solution 2: Retrieve deleted iPhone notes from iCloud backup
You can recover deleted iPhone notes from iCloud backup if you have one. Before you do this, make sure that you really have the deleted notes in the backup, and then restore your iPhone from iCloud backup, or you'll lose the notes forever after the restore. Just follow the instructions below:
1. On your iPhone, go to Settings > General > Resetng>trong> > <m>strong>>Erase All Content and Settings. Choose Erase iPhone on the pop-up window to continue. 2. Then your iPhone will be restarted, and you'll be led to the Setup Assistant, sign in to iCloud, tap Restore from a Backup, then choose from the list of your backups in iCloud.
Now, all data of the iCloud backup are entirely restored to your iPhone, including notes. Just as restoring from iTunes backup, you'll lose all existing data on your iPhone after the restore. If you don't want to give up the existing data. You can turn to solution 3, recover deleted notes from iPhone with Dr .Fone for iOS.
