iPhone and iCloud Question for Dummies...

 Recently I changed my Apple ID.  Apparently I had forgotten it, but actually I am pretty sure it was just mis-typed but you can only do that twice apparently before "they" get nervous and you have to get a new Apple ID...and NOT one you have used in the last year.

Anyway, I now seemed to have two Apple IDs so "some data has not merged".  This was not pleasing since I have an iphone, iPad, and MacBook that I have tried to all say the same things.

Since there were issues with my phone I decided to sign out of my phone and sign back in, something I have NEVER DONE since I got the phone two years ago.  I was given the option to save some things to iCloud--I did not save my calendars and the two other things suggested (which I had not really looked at since I was not really sure what was happening by signing out) but I DID save my Contacts to iCloud.

Now when I go to my phone there are NO Notes and No Reminders.  Between them I had many hundreds of great and important notes and reminders.  I am a little gunshy.  I am a little reluctant to try anything now...! 

When I go to iCloud there are no Notes and no Reminders.

If I try to save to iCloud the Notes and Reminders on my MacBook and/or iPad, will they synchronize there or will I totally lose them?

What to do?  This is where smart friends are practical blessings, not just blessings for my heart and head.

If anyone has some suggestions, I am ALL EARS!

Thanks.


PS. I am going out to bury my sorrows in Mexican food tonight and tomorrow is temple, so I may not respond to help until at least Thursday.

Thanks again.
