How to back-up iPhone notes?

Ok so my iPhone 4 doesn't work, but it still 'responds' (shows up on my laptop) when I connect it to my MacBook.

I NEED to back-up my notes, but I can't do anything on my phone - so I can't go into my iCloud settings on my phone and turn on 'Notes' to back-up.

Is there any way I can back-up my notes from on phone? Possibly remotely from my Mac?

Please help - it would be AMAZINGLY appreciated.

Added (1). Preferably not using a program that I would have to pay for.

Backup your notes, without iCloud, so that you have to use an backup tool. May the guide behind will helps.

  • Why does my iPhone notes app.delete some notes? Some have been there for over a year others just disappear after a few days. I have not (to my knowledge) done anything differently.
  • Some of my notes on my iphone disappeared, how do I get them back? I deleted my Mail account, forgetting that notes were attached to it because I wanted to have a different mail account on my phone, and when i realized i added it back, and all of my notes were still there, but they were all duplicated since i had both accounts on I guess? So i was deleting some of the duplicates and then (i don't know how or why) all my notes for the last 6 months got deleted. Is there any way to get them back?
  • My iPhone says that my Notes is taking up 1.79 GB of storage. I only have 3 notes, and there isn't a lot of text in them. How do I fix this? Recently there were a lot of notes on my phone, but I deleted most of them until there were only three notes left. However, my phone still says my Notes takes up 1.79 GB. I tried writing a really lengthy note to see if the GB would go higher, but it didn't change. I don't want to delete my three remaining notes, which have very little text in them. I doubt that these notes are taking up 1.79 GB. What is the problem here, and how do I fix it?
  • My iPhone deleted all my notes. Can I get them back? I added a new email, after having a problem with the same one and I deleted it. After I added it back, all my notes were gone. I thought it was a glitch so I turned off my phone and then back on again and it was still gone. Can I get them back? I had a lot of important writing in those documents.
