notes

Since upgrading to High Sierra, whenever I update a note in Notes, it will always delete my entry and revert back to what it was before my update. Only after I enter data a SECOND TIME does it "stick." Anybody else seen this bug?

Probably an oft-asked question, but once you're reading a note in iOS, can you search within it? All of the guides on the internet just tell you how to search ALL of your notes. But on the desktop version of Notes, you can search within notes, which is super useful for longer ones: Sure...

I use the Notes utility regularly and have recently been forced by Apple to update to OS11. The new version of this tool is all but useless as several of the features (like forward/backward keys & basic punctuation marks in the ‘turned’ menu) have now gone. The whole utility has a different feel...

I want an app in the sidebar that contains editable text. Basically, if there's five things that I want to do today, I want to add them into the sidebar and remove them when I've done them. I tried searching in the App Store, but I couldn't find such an App. Any recommendations?

I don't think so, an I couldn't find a solid answer. I want to use Noteablity as my default all in one note taking app. I would like to be able to tap the iPad Pro lock screen and add notes without logging in, just like the build in Notes app. Is that possible? Where would you enable it?

Hello, I’ll go straight to the point. I’m looking for an app (free or paid), which I will use for my ongoing project. Every day I’m writting at least one medical case with some text and pictures included. So I will write a new “file” with a new patient, which will go in a predetermined folder...

When Apple doesn't get the small details right. Arghhh. If you have long-ish notes in the Notes app that pre-date macOS High Sierra, be careful. You might see this:

I was searching for something else on my iPhone by using the pull down search facility from the home screen. I was horrified for some confidential data to pop up in the search box, from within a locked note. I double checked and the data was definitely in the body of the locked note, not in the...

While editing or creating a note in stock Notes app, i can’t find the formatting tools that used to be there. I only get the option to add a checkmark or add a drawing/scan. Are those gone for everyone or have they moved to a place I can’t find them? I’m on public beta 5 on an ipad 12.9.

I created an Exchange account on my iPhone SE and sync'd notes with my Windows PC. On the PC, AkrutoSync acted as the Exchange server. The odd thing is that even though notes created on the iPhone have the default font (looks like Helvetica or Arial), the notes that sync'd with Exchange server...

Wondering if there's a way to bulk-export notes yet (or back them up, aside from via time machine).

The notes in different accounts are not syncing with either iCloud or with Gmail and Yahoo. iOS 11, DBeta 3 (15A5318g).

I'm looking for a note taking app with templates & layers. This way, I can use the graphs or dot matrix to keep my writing legible, but then remove the graph/dot/lines, and have my writing appear on a blank page, without graph, lines, etc. Hope that makes sense. Anything like this exists?

Howdy! I'm wondering if anyone can tell me how to change the background in the Apple desktop Notes app. I'd like it to be on the darker side. Thanks! Paul

hello, Correct me if I'm wrong but when I read my list of notes in NOTES app, I can see a slight drop shadow on the top of the fonts which hurt the eyes after a long read. It is more apparent in the headers/titles. How do you remove this drop shadow on the fonts? How to improve the sharpness...

For those of you running the beta of iOS 11, can you please comment on the notes app? Still no option for font size like in the MacOS app?

This was working fine for months but these past few days, suddenly the Notes syncing no longer works. - Notes I created in iPhone does not show up in iPad or Mac - Notes I created in Mac does not show up in iPad or iPhone I tried disabling/enabling Notes in iCloud, rebooting the devices, etc...

I have a bunch of hand-written notebooks with entries that are structured like a diary (with a date and a headline). I plan on transferring these over to Apple Notes so that they are better searchable and safer than in a physical notebook (which can get lost). Also, I plan on writing any future...

I've been an Apple consultant for about 20 years. Things just seem to be getting worse and worse at Apple. Case in point: After updating my iphone to ios 10, I can no longer access all the text I had written into the Notes app. Instead, I'm presented with a screen with one button: "Upgrade...

Basically I ran into the exact same issue as here: https://discussions.apple.com/thread/7744381?start=0&tstart=0 This happened after I updated my early 2015 13' MacBook Pro from El Capitan to Sierra. I tried to search the problem first but didn't have any luck so sorry if this has been posted...
