Opening Notes of another user account in OS X EI Captain I recently replaced my macbook's user account by changing account name from name1 to name2. Now I have to recover some very important notes that I had saved in default Notes app but unfortunately didn't sync with cloud.

I have found a folder with old user account name i.e. name1 at /Users/name1/ but didn't find any relevant data. Can anybody please recommend me the possible ways of recovering the required data?
Create a new user with the exact same name in system preferences as the old one. When given the option, choose to use the old folder as their home folder. Then log in with this user and open the Notes app as that user.
