iPhoneNotes

Since apple is building and updating the iPhone software they have forgotten to deal with the Notes on your iPhone. They have just backed them up and thats not enough for me. I like to edit my notes from the iPhone on my Mac. So I built this small application to do that.

iPhoneNotes allows you to edit your notes from the iPhone on your Mac.

You can:

You need:

  • Mac OS X 10.5 or higher (it does not work on 10.4.x!)
  • Jailbroken iPhone
  • Installed OpenSSH on your iPhone

Version 0.8

FAQ

My iPhone does not show up in the list

Please check that your iPhone is in the same network as your Mac so that Bonjour can find it.

It starts loading but afterwards nothing happens

Check the log window:

Window -> Log Window

The log tells something about known hosts

Remove the entry about your iPhone from the file ~/.ssh/known_hosts or just delete the entire known hosts file with the following command: rm ~/.ssh/known_hosts. Afterwards restart iPhone notes and try again.

Deleted the known hosts file but still can't get notes from my iPhone

Try to connect to your iPhone with the terminal sftp client: sftp ip_of_your_iPhone

Default username and password
