LOST NOTES

[Civils 2]

Hi, I am a normal user [ i.e., not premium ]

I made a note a few days back, unfortunately, yesterday that content in the note got replaced by my mistake and the note was synchronised, so I lost all the previous content,

I tried to view the note history, it's displaying permission denied.

Is there any way to get that lost content? 

Please help me, my exam is nearby!
Thanks in advance :)

Hi.  I'm also a normal user (despite being premium).  Note History is a premium feature,  so if you can't replace your data easily,  it may be worth upgrading to Premium for a month to get access.

Experienced users have these tools - the starred (**) items are available free

1. Disconnect!  Don't let your local device sync the error.
2. "Undo" - shake (iOS) / Ctrl+z (Windows) etc - if you realise something bad just happened,  try to undo it before trying anything else. **
3. Backups - although the server version of the database is your go-to backup,  a local system backup can help restore 'lost' data after syncing. **
4. Find an unconnected device - don't allow it to connect and sync (obviously) and copy the content of your lost item to a new note.  Then connect and sync. **
5. Upgrade and see Note History

- NB Note History only works if you change the content of a still-existing note.  If you deleted it,  check the Trash notebook.

Hello, this is a user forum. This will not be checked by EN staff on a regular basis.

If you need the lost stuff urgently, get premium, and contact support directly. There is a chat function going directly into support for premium and business users. I think (But can not be sure for your case) that it should be possible to recover your content via note history.

Sorry, hardcopy  in German. I have highlighted chat hours for you.

The Note History backup runs multiple times a day, for all users. edit: including basic users (thanks @gazumped)
As a premiun user, you will be able to recover lost content.

Yes, provided the content was present during one of the backups.
The only known schedule is "multiple times a day"

The note history backup also includes basic accounts (thanks @gazumped)
