A notarized document can be revoked. This is when any of the clauses in the document has been breached.
The notary seal and notary's signature does not make a document a binding contract. The signatures on a contract can be notarized. However, when a document if notarized, the notary is simply stating that to the best of their knowledge the signature is that of the person signing the document. In other words, the notary verifies a signature that they witness. A contract would be binding once the participants sign it in front of the notary and the document is notarized.
If the notary forgot to sign, the document is not notarized.
You are not entitled to details about documents the notary has acknowledged for other individuals.
The notary stamp has no affect on the validity of the document. A notary is typically appointed for a period of a few years. No one has to go and get all their documents 're-notarized' to keep them valid.

No, it is not the notary's responsibility to obtain an apostille. Once the notary has notarized the document and returned it to you, the notary's responsibility is over. Knowledgeable notaries will be able to tell you how to get an apostille, but they can not do it for you.
No. The whole point of a notary is to verify the identity of the person signing a document right there in the presence of the notary. Anyone could have sent the mailed document, therefore it cannot be notarized.
