In daily life and work, we often use the iCloud Notes feature to record important information and to-do lists. However, if you change your iCloud account or need to share certain notes with other iCloud users, how to transfer notes from one iCloud to another? This article will provide several simple solutions to help you easily transfer your notes.
The Share Note feature is one of the most common methods for transferring notes. With this feature, users can share specific notes with another iCloud account, thus transferring individual notes. This method is particularly suitable for small-scale note transfers, is easy to use, and works best for users who have both devices on hand.
Here is how to do it:
Step 1. Open the Notes app on your iPhone.
Step 2. Select the note(s) you want to share.
Step 3. Tap the "More" icon (three dots) in the corner.
Step 4. Choose the "Share Note" option from the menu.
Step 5. Send the note via Mail, Message, WhatsApp, or another method.
AirDrop is another great option for transferring notes from one iCloud account to another. However, this method is only suitable for those who have two iPhones and works best for short-distance file transfers.
Here is how to transfer notes from one iCloud to another via AirDrop:
Step 1. On both iPhones, open the Control Center and enable Bluetooth and Wi-Fi. Then, long-press the section to open AirDrop. (AirDrop not working?)
Step 2. Tap AirDrop and set your iPhone to be discoverable by "Everyone" or "Contacts Only" as preferred.
Step 3. Open the Notes app on the sending iPhone, select the note you want to transfer, tap the "Share" icon, choose the "AirDrop" option, and then select the other iPhone's name to send the note.
Step 4. On the receiving iPhone, tap "Accept" to save the note.
If you only have one iOS device, there is also a way to transfer notes from one iCloud to another. You can log out of your old iCloud account (Can't sign out of Apple ID?) and choose to keep your notes on the device. Then, sign in to your new iCloud account and enable iCloud Notes or iCloud syncing. However, before doing this, make sure to back up your data to iCloud first.
Here are the steps:
Step 1. Log in to the source iCloud account, then disconnect from Wi-Fi or cellular data. Go to "Settings" > "Notes" and enable "On My iPhone" Account.
Step 2. Open the Notes app, tap the "menu" icon, and select "Select Notes". Choose the notes you want to transfer or tap "Move All" to select all notes. Move them to a folder under "On My iPhone".
Step 3. Next, sign out of the source iCloud account and log in to the target iCloud account. Then, use the method from Step 2 to move all notes from the On My iPhone folder to iCloud. You can also enable iCloud Notes to sync your iPhone notes with iCloud.
If you have only a few notes, you can use the simple copy-paste method to transfer the content to the Notes app on your new iCloud account. Here's how it works:
Step 1. Log in to your original iCloud account, open the "Notes" app, and find the notes you want to transfer.
Step 2. Copy the entire content of the note.
Step 3. Switch to your new iCloud account, create a new note, and paste the content.
Step 4. Repeat this process until all notes have been copied to the new account.
