Can I recover notes on my stolen iPhone from computer?
An old iPhone was stolen from me when I was traveling. I had regularly synced the phone via iTunes on my laptop, a Windows 7 machine. How can I recover any notes from iTunes on the laptop? Is there a tool which will help me recover this stuff?
How to recover notes from stolen iPhone
As we know, the iTunes/iCloud backup file is a kind of an SQLitedb file that you can't view the content of it, let alone taking data out of it. To get data from it, you need to rely on a third-party tool which can extract it. Of course, there is such a tool which empowers you to recover note on your stolen iPhone, iPad or iPod touch on the laptop. Here is my recommendation: Dr. Fone - iPhone Data Recovery.
