I’m trying to restock my camp meals and noticed that Mountain House is now hard to find, and lots of my favorite Peak Refuel meals are sold out everywhere. Meanwhile Alpine Aire and Happy Yak meals are plentiful. Any reliable online Canadian retailers with good selection? I’ve looked at MEC, VPO, Geartrade, Canadian Tire, Bass Pro Shops.
I’ve searched so many past Reddit threads, I’m desperate for a solution.
Today a friend wanted to share a note with me, and in order for me to access her note, I got a prompt on my phone to turn on iCloud sync for the Notes app. I did so, and I’ve just realized now, hours later, that since turning sync on, every note on my phone since 2023 is gone.
There’s no recently deleted folder. I logged into iCloud on a web browser and the notes aren’t there either. I immediately turned off automatic backups in case I need to wipe my phone and restore it from the backup, but that scares me too. And I’m not even entirely sure that the most recent backup precedes the event that caused all my notes to be deleted.
I’ve tried updating to the most recent iOS. I’ve tried toggling iCloud sync on and off. Nothing has worked. Apple Support is closed right now now. I’m so heartbroken, I wrote so many notes like diary entries. I kept so many lists that I reference all the time. And all my usernames and passwords. I’ve learned a hard lesson today about trusting Apple. I’ve since found threads on Reddit and discussion.apple.com by many other users reporting the same thing happening - that syncing to iCloud deleted their notes instead of backing them up.
Has anyone else received this email? Does anyone have any insider insight of what it means?
