Yes, thanks Ronni, V10.8.3 I do like the features of NOTES, but I was wondering if it was lockable.
The fact that it is available on all our devices through iCloud is a concern because other family members don't secure their devices with a password entry. I suppose I am going to have to scrub key notes with, for example retail account info from NOTES, unless I can lock it as administrator. I see EVERNOTE requires a user to log-in so it is +/- secure. Thanks for your detailed info,I will continue to use NOTES for non-sensitive stuff. cheers Marcus Marcus Harris P.O.
