I used Notes on three MacOS/iOS devices (iCloud synchronization enabled). Accidentally I removed iCloud data. There were about 1000 notes, part of them were with attachments.
Apple support can’t help with this issue.
But I saved local copy from MacBook.
When Internet connection is restored local copy is removing.
So I looking for the best way to fix this.
iOS 16.4.1
macOS 13.2.1
I already tried to move all notes (when MacBook is not connected to Internet) to local storage, then enabled connection and copy back to iCloud. I got three different states on three devices. Restarting of applications and devices did not bring them to the same state.
Another variant: I think I should update synchronization status of my local records in db. But there are about 10 tables and it hard to guess what exactly should be updated.
Does anyone has Notes db specification or had an experience in restoring notes?
