Post of a demonstration of what the file says. The file couldn’t be moved because it either doesn’t exist or the folder it is being moved to doesn’t exist.
iPad Air, iPadOS 17
I have the same problem, it keeps happening with my annotated pdf files. I need to know how to restore them back. It’s my notes from my major subject, badly needed how to fix this problem!

Did you find a solution to this?
still struggling , nothing works
It wasn’t stored in my iCloud. It was stored in the iPad ( files). I can find the note but I can’t access it. It says it’s in a folder that has been moved to “ doesn’t exist”
I have the same problem with two PDF I've been using since 5 months ago or more, they just dissapear and I couldn't find them.
Of course I don't have a backup in iCloud, what should i do? This ridiculous, we need a real solution for iPad archives , this has never happened before.
Is it going to calculate like forever?

Recovering Lost Notes:
If you have lost the notes, then here is what to try...
A. Start Here: If you're Missing Notes on your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch - Apple Support
B. Restore from a Backup:
Did your ever back up your iPhone with these installed? If so, back up you could back up your iPhone, and then restore it from the backup.
C. iCloud in Settings: Look in iCloud settings in each device, and make sure that Notes is clicked. If it is, then unclick it, and then click it again.

Restoring Notes…
Did your ever back up your iPad
If so, restore your iPad from the backup. Note that the iPad backup version must be of the same version as what is installed; you cannot downgrade the iPadOS.
Using the Files app, search for it using that app. Use the search bar atop the screen, by entering the name of the file.
be sure you are reading that message very carefully.
it says one of TWO conditions caused the issue:
the SOURCE file could not be found. clearly that is not the case, I can see it in your screenshot -OR-
the destination folder can not be found. if copying to another device, if the connection got broken at any time, you may need to re-establish the connection.
To be sure, use Finder and open the destination folder in a NEW Finder window, and drag-and-drop between the TWO open windows.
I need my notes or atleast access to them.
I have difficulty accessing my documents on my folder. Most especially my notes for school. They keep saying file doesn’t exist. It won’t even allow me to open them.
