Lost data in Notes due to iCloud sync

[joelin02]

So here is what happened. I created a Note called fileA. It was on iCloud and I also have an iPhone on iCloud. Here is the sequence of events:

fileA is updated to v2 on iPhone and Mac OSX
I backup and sell my iPhone
My Mac OSX disconnects from iCloud (signed out)
fileA is updated to v3 on Mac OSX (this contains really important information)
I purchase a new iPhone and restore from the backup in step 2
I sign into iCloud on my iPhone, fileA is a v2
I sign into iCloud on Mac OSX., fileA is at v2
At the end of the day, I've lost v3 on my Mac and iPhone.

What do I do??

Thanks in advance.

Is your computer backed up locally? You should be able to retrieve v3 from the backup using Time Machine.
