How can I get the Voice memo's source computer file to keep the original file name?

     I ran out of space in my iPhone some weeks ago and I've been cleaning up. I am pretty much done deleting the photos and apps. The only thing I need to finish is erasing my voice memos. I already synced my music/voice memos with my computer, the only problem is that when I get the files from the iTunes media it changes the name and makes it extremely hard to organize. I want to upload this files to another website so I can access them freely.
I would REALLY appreciated if anyone could tell me how to fix this or if you have another method please tell me.

This is pretty straightforward.
If the file isn't too big you can just read the entire file contents:
set fileContents to read file "HD:path:to:the:file.txt"
Once you've read it in, you can iterate through it with a repeat loop like:
repeat with eachParagraph in (paragraphs of fileContents)
  -- code here to process each line
end repeat
Within the loop, eachParagraph represents each successive line in the file, so all you need to do is pull out the data you want. Now your subject says that your file is tab-delimited, but your example uses commas, so you may need to adjust this script depending on what's actually the case:
set my text item delimiters to tab -- or "," as appropriate
set firstName to text item 1 of eachParagraph
set lastName to text item 2 of eachParagraph
set emailAddr to last text item of eachParagraph
-- rest of code here to send an email
The last thing to do is to reset the 'text item delimiters' to their previous value so you don't end up getting confused.
So, putting that all together you end up with something like:
set fileContents to read file "HD:path:to:the:file.txt"
set oldTIDs to my text item delimiters -- additional code to remember the current TIDs
set my text item delimiters to tab -- or ","
repeat with eachParagraph in (paragraphs of fileContents)
  set firstName to text item 1 of eachParagraph
  set lastName to text item 2 of eachParagraph
  set emailAddr to last text item of eachParagraph
  -- rest of code here to send an email
end repeat
set my text item delimiters to oldTIDs -- restore the TIDs for cleanliness
Note that this should work for reasonably-sized files (up to a few thousand records). If it's much more than that you may need something a little more sophisticated to read the file progressively rather than all at once.

    The Finder reports File information. The date and time of the photo are in the Photo's Exif metadata. The Finder has no awareness of this. All photos apps on any system do.

  • How can I get my voice memos back to the voice memo app on my iphone

    Yeah, i just synced my iphone with my iTunes library and almost everything went smooth..  my pictures, apps, contacts, calendar, etc.  But I can not find the most important thing, the voice memos..  I had transferred them to my iTunes library the last time i synced, so i thought logically they should sync back into my voice memo app. Its important because they were lectures (im in college)!  And I planned to keep in order until the end of the semester until i had to restore it and back it up (because i went to get a new iphone)..
    But now, i open the voice memo app, and its blank, there's not one memo..  And i don't know how to get them back in there..  I think i could put them in my Music library, but i dont want to do that.   I like to keep them in the voice memo app, so when i have exams i can just go back and listen to them in order (without them being all over the place.) 
    So all I'm asking is, is there a way to get my voice memos back to the voice memo app?  I have the latest version of iTunes (11.0.1.12) and an iPhone 4 with the latest iOs (6.0.1) and note i have a PC (Windows 7)..    I hate how iTunes totally changed their layout, it makes it harder.  That's why i couldn't follow older discussions on here, because the update made the layout so different..  Anyway, if you know what i should do, i would be very grateful.  Thanks. 

    Hey mahongue!
    I have some information here that may help you import your voice memos into iTunes. This information is written for the iPod, but the steps for saving your voice memos should be the same with your iPhone:
    Synchronize
    If iPod is set to update songs automatically and you record voice memos, the voice memos are automatically downloaded to a playlist in iTunes when you connect iPod. Once downloaded, the voice memos are removed from the Voice Memos folder on your iPod. To play the voice memos that have been synchronized to your computer in iTunes, select the Voice Memos playlist on the left side of the iTunes window. To play the synchronized voice memos on the iPod, select the Voice Memos playlist in the Music menu, not the Voice Memos menu in the Extras menu.

  • How do I get a voice memo to my computer?

    I need to get the recorded into my MacBook Pro. Lion, 10.7.5. Can't send email, too long.
    Need this in my computer today.
    Thanks

    You can also sync them to your computer. From the Users Guide:
    Sharing voice memos with your computer
    iTunes can sync voice memos with your iTunes library when you connect iPod touch to
    your computer.
    When you sync voice memos to iTunes, they remain in the Voice Memos app until you delete
    them. If you delete a voice memo on iPod touch, it isn’t deleted from the Voice Memos playlist in
    iTunes. However, if you delete a voice memo from iTunes, it is deleted from iPod touch the next
    time you sync with iTunes.
    Sync voice memos with iTunes: Connect iPod touch to your computer and select it in iTunes.
    Select Music at the top of the screen (between Apps and Movies), select Sync Music, select
    “Include voice memos,” and click Apply.
    The voice memos from iPod touch appear in the Voice Memos playlist in iTunes.

  • So how can I get the original cd for my iMac

    How can reset my imac

    Your question is how to get the original OS X DVD for your system? In the US, contact Apple support at  (800) APL-CARE (800-275-2273) They have them for a nominal fee.  Of course, if you bought a system delivered with OS X 10.7 Lion, there are no OS X DVD's as everything is handled online.
    When you say you want to reset your iMac, you want to wipe the disk clean and reinstall the operating system and iLife? or ?

  • How can we find the original XML Name of a Field

    Hi All,
    Just like the Reports To Field has XML Name as *[<ManagerFullName>]*
    Can anyone tell me how I can find the Original XML Name for the "Reports To (Alias)" User field?.
    Thanks in advance,
    Royston

    My scenario is that,
    When a user saves a new campaign I want to change the owner of this campaign to the user he reports to i.e(Manager Alias) Since the Owner field takes the Alias Name.
    To achieve this I have created a workflow to assign that Campaign to the Manager.
    Here is the Code snippet
    The triggering event is : Before modified record is saved.
    action is Update Field Owner with UserValue('<ManagerAlias>')
    Unfortunately its not accepting the ManagerAlias field....I have tried a similar scenario with the <ManagerFullName> field and its working fine.
    Thanks,

  • How can I get a Voice Memo from my iPod to my PC?

    I record discussions with coworkers on my iPod Touch because I have trouble taking handwritten notes.
    The trouble is that the Voice Memos playback screen is small, and the Scrub control is so small, that it's hard to use with any precision. I wind up going back two minutes in the recording when I only need to go back 30 seconds, that kind of thing. It's very time-consuming transcribing notes when I listen to much larger portions of the recording than I need to, multiple times.
    To make things worse, the Scrub control in Voice Memos is very near the Delete button.
    All I want to do is move or copy this recording off of my iPod and onto a PC at my job, so that I can listen to it on a larger player that's easier to use. Needless to say, I'll manage to play an unprotected audio recording on my PC one way or another.
    My "real" iTunes installation is at home. Can I move the file from my iPod into an otherwise empty iTunes installation at work? I'd also like not to erase my iPod by syncing it to an empty iTunes installation; been there, done that.
    I've tried Messaging these recordings to friends with iPhones to be able to see the recordings as an attachment to a Sent Message. This gets me a larger QuickTime player, but there are drawbacks with needing to Message a 24-minute recording to a friend with an iPhone.
    I would also be happy to be able to use this recoding in a larger player on my iPod without the silly business about Messages that is cited above.
    Thanks.

    Thanks Caramby.  I actually found another work-around
    Here's how to copy the voice memo to your laptop (and then email it if you need to):
    With iTunes open on the Voice Memo folder of your device (an iPhone 4s in my case), simply drag the required file from iTunes and onto the desktop of your pc/laptop.  It won't remove the file from your device but simply make a copy.   Then you can play the file from your pc/laptop (through Quicktime) as the file is in AAC format.  You can also attach the file to an email for sending.
    Hope this helps someone else.

  • How can I get my voice memos off of my iPhone?

    I have a new iPhone and took some pictures and recorded a few voice memos.  I would like to save these before I restore my iPhone to the back up I have on my computer.  I was able to import the photos into iPhoto, but I am not sure how to import the voice memos.  Normally, I would see them in iTunes under the Voice Memos playlist, but they are not there.  When I click on the iPhone in iTunes it gives me a choice of restoring from back up or setting up as a new iPhone.  I am worried that either of choices would get rid of the two voice memos I have on my iPhone.  Any advice?

  • Exporting 7 min. video from Aperture and received error.  How can I get the original back?

    I uploaded a video from my iphone 5 into Aperture and then I tried to export it to my desktop.  After I clicked on Export, it attempted to export for a while but then gave me an error message saying that 0 of 1 videos was exported and it couldn't export.  Now it shows the video in the album in Aperture, but it won't play and I can't do anything with it.  I have tried to recall the original but it says there is no original and it says there are no referenced files when I try to reference the files.  The clip also shows an arrow pointing to the right with a yellow triangle by it.  This is located in the bottom right of the image, right next to the video icon.  My concern is that I tried to export the original.  Any ideas on how I can fix this and get the video back?

    The clip also shows an arrow pointing to the right with a yellow triangle by it.  This is located in the bottom right of the image, right next to the video icon.
    Is that the badge you are seeing? Then Aperture has lost the connection to the original video file.
    Now it shows the video in the album in Aperture, but it won't play and I can't do anything with it.  I have tried to recall the original but it says there is no original and it says there are no referenced files when I try to reference the files. 
    You tried to reconenct and locate the referenced file? Then you probably imported the video as "Managed" and then the commands for referenced files do not work.
    Look directly into your Aperture library package, if the video is still there:
    Select the Aperture Library in the Finder and ctrl-click(or right click) it.
    Then select "Show Package Contents" from the pop-up.
    In the Finder window that opens scroll down to the "Masters" folder and open its subfolder "2013" and then go to the month and day, when you imported your video. Do you see your video there, or any imports at all?
    If you see the video in your library package, copy it to the Desktop, ad check, if you camn play it.
    What do you see?

  • How can I get the View Tab name on the Crystal Report Viewer at runtime?

    When a report is displayed in the Windows Forms Crystal Report Viewer and the user drills into the report, the drill down view is displayed in a seperate view and is identified via a View tab at the top of the report.  I can determine the index of the view tab that is currently selected, but I need to access the text that is on the View tab.  The only properties that I've found that pertain to the "view" on the Crystal Report viewer are the ActiveViewIndex and the ViewCount.  Unfortunately, neither of these items help me because they are not specific to a certain section of the report.  Has anyone had any luck accessing the View Tab properties ?  Thanks.

    The tabs at the top of the page are nested within some of the viewers controls. Through trial and error you just have to find the right one. In this case the main part of the report is in the first control. This happens to be a TabControl. From there you can loop through the TabPages on the TabControl to grab the names of the tabs.
    Here is a quick example of what I did to get the tab text. All this code was in a button click event.
    Control oControl = crystalReportViewer1.Controls[0];
    TabControl oTabControl = (TabControl)oControl.Controls[0];
    foreach (TabPage oTabPage in oTabControl.TabPages)
         MessageBox.Show(oTabPage.Text);

  • How can I get Elements 11 Organiser to sort by File Name as in Elements 7

    I have just acquired Elements 11 to replace Elements 7
    All my main photos (thousands) are in 1 file on my computer.
    My individual file names are dates - eg "1960-09Sept Venice St Marks Square.." etc, so File Names bring my thousands of images up in date order.
    I have tagged them in  Elements 11  as  appropriate with 1 or more Tags per photo.
    In Elements 7 there is an Option "Display" and one of the options is "Folder Location" i.e file name order, which is what I want.
    I cannot find this option in Elements 11 - all I have found is an option to sort by just "new" or "old" i.e file date order. Fine for photgraphs where the file date is the same as the photo but a scan done today may be of an image in 1960 which is where I wanted it sorted!
    I know you can amend the file date in Elements 11 for each image but I have hundreds of scans to redate!
    I also know you can bring the images up in Elements 11 of my whole file by using "Reveal in Explorer" which brings them up in file name/date order for me but not when I click on the Elements 11 Tags which reverts to File Date.
    Is there anyway I can get the Tags to sort by File Name/Location in Elements 11 as in Elements 7?
    Tony

    Many thanks for your previous message. Very useful.
    In fact in preparing to answer your question, I find that maybe my problem is not as bad as I thought!
    Yes, I have a lot of photos but the majority in digital form are photos (2,500) since the year 2000 which will be sorted by Elements according to the photo/file date.
    I have 6,000 or so prints/slides going back mostly to the 1930s but quite a few back as far as the late 1800s. I am scanning a lot of these into digital form but I have only scanned about 500 or so so far and it is only these that are causing a problem. (I am unlikely to scan all 6,000!). These range from the 1880s to 2000. However, as I only started taking digital photos in 2000, if I follow your suggestion, I could give all my scans the same file date (a date prior to 2000) and if I understand correctly what you say, they will then all be sorted in the alpha/numeric order I want.
    Have I got this right?.
    I suppose, as an alternative, It would not be a real problem to insert a file date for the 500 or so I have scanned and I would then just need to enter a file date for any future scans.
    As you indicate, there are other options but one of the 2 options above seem at present to be my best bet.
    Thank you very much for your suggestions - maybe I can now more or less get what I want without too much effort but I would still prefer Adobe to add a File Location Option as before!

    Making sure you answer your calls on times is important.  All phones have a standard amount set per rings before a call goes to voice.  We are unable to change settings to make the phone ring longer.  Sometimes purchased or recorded ringtones  can cause the ringing on your end to seem shorter.  Do you currently have a customized ringtone on your phone?
