About a month ago I updated the OS to the new iOS 4. Always in a rush, the iPhone looked OK, so I hurried to pick up the kids from school. I went to my Notes app and noticed only the latest Note was there. All of my old notes were gone. Yes, lots of them should have been cleaned up, do I really need to save the part number to the spark plug on my gas trimmer, or the instructions on how to interface a ps2 keyboard to an arduino using a custom chip, PAK-VIA when everyone knows you simply use a picaxe instead. (little-scale.blogspot.com) What happened to the bags of mulch I was supposed to pick up 97 days ago.
Panic set in. What happened? Well, it wasn't so scary. I had set my Outlook on my PC to archive items over 3 days old from the exchance server to the workstation so I would only have 3 days of email on the iPhone. When I connected to the PC to update the OS, it synced and archived my Notes. It was simple enough to drag them from the archive folder to the active folder and they automagically synced on the iPhone. Life is like a box of chocolates, sometimes you never know what your gonna' get.....or lose.
