Hi Mark, maybe that is the case I do not know. I have a bout 2500 notes on my
Notes app. iCloud tells me I have over 4 GB of free space. I have other notes
that are very long and they seem to be saved without any problems. Whatever the
case may be I’m thinking I should make up copies of all these folders and notes
and store them locally on my iMac just in case. I may even copy all the notes
into pages documents if anything for back ups. Thank you very much for your
response.

I had a problem with Notes when files got too big, too, but don’t remember
just how big. For that reason, I started using Pages, which is a bit tricky
formatting-wise, but handles really large bikes with sharing quite well. It
also has options to recover earlier versions in case you mess up and lose
text you didn’t mean to. Like me. *blush*

I am wondering if the file size is greater than the notes app will handle.
Any one know the limitations of the notes app?

The Notes app is indeed a good option for working on both machines.
Sorry for asking so many questions in troubleshooting, but this is a
curious situation.
Did anythign happen to your other Notes folders? If they are still on your
phone that indicates the problem is specific to your septuagint folder. You
can try disconnecting Notes from Icloud and then reconnecting it, that
might push the folders back to your iPone.
You could also try creating a new Notes folder on your Mac and copying your
folders to it, the new folder may show up on your iPhone.
The reason I asked about the Greek or English translation was that I’d be
rather helpless trying to provide resources in Greek, but I’m pretty
familiar with the app options for English translations. I do like your plan
to make a personal copy, I have that with one of my translations that I use
a bunch, I’ve got different marks and notes that mean something to me but
not to anyone else.
I also like your plan to have a local copy of your preferred translation
that doesn’t rely on the Internet.
Peace,
Ian

hi Ian,After I sent the email message to the group, I went to the iMac and opened
up the notes app. I waited while the notes app updated it self. I checked
and the folder is there with all the notes. I was relieved that all my
work did not go to waist. However, even though I restarted the notes app
both on my iPhone and iMac, the folders and notes are no where to be found
on my iPhone. I did check the notes folder and the notes are not there.
Now i’m even more baffled, I started this project on the iPhone, and the
project seems to be saved on the iMac which is great, but no matter what I
do I can’t get it to download onto the iPhone.
Any ideas, how i can get the folder and notes to download back on to the
iPhone? The goal is to have these very important notes both on my iPhone
and iMac hense why I decided to use the notes app for this project.
As per your questions, sorry i’m not sure what you are asking me. As I
said the phone or the mac doesn’t read ancient Greek. However even if it
did, it is very hard to understand. The English version is much more
comprehensible to me, even though I am very fluent in modern Greek. I can
understand quite a bit of the original Greek text but not all of it, so I
lose the meaning of what i’m reading. Also like i said sinve voiceover
doesn’t read the ancient Greek it’s useless to me. The website i’m
coppying from offers both the English and Greek.
The reason i’m doing this, is for personal reading. I would like to have
my own copy of the septuagint bible on my iPhone and iMac so that i can
read off line at my own leasure without the internet. also the layout of
the iPhone and iMac makes reading easier for me as a blind user.

If you have the Notes app set to synch to your Mac through iCloud you can
check thre. You can aslo check the folder in Notes on your iPHone called
All Notes. If the notes are tehre but the folder structure disappeared
the notes will likely be in there.
A couple follow up questions on your project, are you looking for an
English translation of the Septuagint, Or one using Greek characters? In
seminary I got a waver from biblical languages because at that time we
couldn’t make my computer speak Greek or Hebrew, but that was 20 years
ago and a lot has changed since then

Hi everybody, the strangest thing happened to me. I wonder if anybody
has some thoughts on this situation.
Some of you may remember that IM of a Greek background. In the orthodox
Greek church we read the septuagint bible. I will not get into the
reasons or debates about why we read this Bible etc.
This email is not to debate religion but something strange that happened
to me.
The Ancient Greek language is very difficult to understand, unless you
have studied the ancient Greek language academically in depth the
average Greek person cannot understand the ancient Greek language.
Also voiceover cannot read the ancient Greek language properly. On the
Mac the Greek voice is broken. However on the iPhone the Greek voice
still works for reading modern Greek. As I said above I do not
understand ancient Greek. I was given a website that has the English
translation of the septuagint bible. I decided I would take on a huge
project of copying all the text of the Bible onto my iPhone. I started
this project on Saturday night.
I would go to the website and click Genesis, chapter 1, I would flick
right until I heard the text of page One , As soon as voiceover would
begin to speak the text of Genesis, chapter 1, page 1, I would triple
top four times so that voiceover could copy the last spoken text.
I went into the Notes app and created a folder, and named it, the
Septuagint Bible English.
I went into that folder, and created another folder called Genesis.
I went into the folder called Genesis and created a new note, I called
it chapter 1.
I pasted the text that was in the voiceover clipboard into this new note
called chapter 1. When I was done with the whole chapter I clicked done.
I clicked the back button and went back to the folder called Genesis,
and there I saw my first note called chapter 1. I created the next note
of course called chapter 2. I went back-and-forth between Safari and the
notes app creating these notes. As I said above I started this on
Saturday night. I continued doing this all day yesterday and even this
morning.
Up until about an hour ago in my notes app I had the folder called the
Septuagint Bible English, in that folder I had another folder called
Genesis, and in the folder called Genesis I had 35 notes. Of course that
means 35 chapters. As I begin to create the 36th chapter the notes app
crashed and to my horror everything has disappeared. There is no such
folders in my app, no notes, everything has disappeared as if I did not
start this project on Saturday. Does anybody have any idea what
happened? Of course my next question is there anyway to recover all this
work that I did?
Any advice would be appreciated, thank you in advance for any thoughts,
ideas, and or help.
