Thank yourself!  Your sync settings and quick thinking enabled this.

I guess you are right - I have my sync frequency (Tools | Options | Synchronization) set to "Every 15 minutes", and I caught it quickly enough that it hadn't happened yet. 

Just for future reference, should I have closed Evernote Desktop to prevent syncing once I realized my note content had disappeared, or would that have triggered an automatic sync?

I presume the latter, but just want to be sure in case it ever happens again.

Thanks.

Same thing happened to me using Evernote Desktop for Windows - a few missed keystrokes and my entire note disappeared. Cntrl-Z to undo didn't work. 

Here is what I did to recover it.

* I simply logged into my Evernote.com account in my browser,
* Opened the note in question (which hadn't been synced yet)
* Copied the contents of the note to my clipboard
* Pasted the contents back into the note on Evernote Desktop

Thanks for not syncing very quickly Evernote!
