How do I record a voice mail message from our iphone onto my MacBook Pro?

My wife has a few voice mail messages on her iphone from her brother(who passed away). She would like to save these in a safe place where she can listen in the future. Recording these messages on an MP3 player as other have suggested, doesn't give us that permanence, security, easy accessability we are looking for.

I had exported an address book backup: abbu
so since i wrote, i have found my way into the cloud: selected all entries - deleted them all from the cloud.
This wiped out contacts on my iphone and i pad, and MBP, as well as on the cloud.  I then imported the abbu back into my now empty address book. 
To repopulate the crowd, i selected all in my address book and created a single card vCard for export to my desktop.  I then dragged that vcard into my empty cloud.  Now my cloud has the same clean contacts as my MBP addressbook.  The cloud then pushed the clean contacts into my empty ipad and iphone contacts. 
I had to go back to Address Book>preferences>Accounts and Add an I cloud account - but if you accidentally create a second i cloud account - all of a sudden your address book will duplicate itself.  I quickly reversed it by deleting one of the icloud accounts in my Address Book>preferences>Accounts. 
I created a new entry on my MBP and it is now on all devices and in cloud
I also created a new entry on my iPhone and it is now in the address book on my MBP.
I feel empowered!!
Have i missed anything??

    You don't. Subscribed calendars do not sync.

  • How do i erase a corrupt contact list from iCloud,iPhone, iPad and MacBook Pro and restore Address Book backup to all devices and cloud?

    how do i erase a corrupt contact list from iCloud,iPhone, iPad and MacBook Pro and restore Address Book backup to all devices and cloud?
    I saved a corrected, most up to date version of my master Address Book Contacts as a back-up on my Mac Book Pro.
    then in an effort to "simplify my life"  i attempted to sync my I phone contacts - ( pre clean-up version) with my clean list on Mac Book Pro, New I pad and newly available icloud. DUH!! Using iTunes to do the sync caused the clean MacBOOK Pro list to be commingled with the dirty iphone contacts. amd now the whole mess is in the cloud. 
    I need to clear out the contaminated lists from all iplaces, and startover with Back-up on my macbook pro. BUT HOW???
    Help

  • How can I copy a movie I created from my iPhone to my MacBook Pro?

    I recently had my iPad 3 and my MacBook Pro stolen.  I still have my iPhone 5.  I created a home video with Final Cut Pro on my missing MBP.  I imported that video into iTunes and put it on my iPad and iPhone in the videos app.  Now I need to get the video from my phone back onto my new MBP but have not been able to figure out how.  It doesn't show up in iPhoto so I can't do it there.  I tried using AirPlay or sharing but the video app doesn't allow sharing.  I rescued my pictures and video clips with senuti but it did not work for the movie files.  Please help.  I cannot sync my phone with my computer until I get this resolved for fear of loosing the video.

    If you rented it on your phone then you can't, you can only watch it on the phone - from FAQs about renting movies from the iTunes Store :
    If you rented the movie on your computer, you can move it to an iOS device or Apple TV (1st generation).
    If you rented the movie on your iOS device or Apple TV, you can’t move it to any other device.

    How do I delete a voice mail message before listening to the message ?

    Hi ,
    I see what you mean.This cannot be deleted without calling the voicemail.
    You can remove the voicemail if you no longer want this.
    Or ring the voicemail from a different number and delete it this way.
    Thanks.

  • TS3899 I send an e-mail message from my iPhone 5c and it shows up in Sent folder as a duplicate, 2 of the same e-mail messages sent at the same time.

    I send an e-mail message from my iPhone 5c and it shows up in Sent folder as a duplicate message. 2 identical messages sent at the same time. What's up with this? Tried Apple Support by phone, and did a couple of troubleshoots, then my connection with Apple Support was cut off. Issue not resolved yet.

    Did the mail get sent? Is the only issue the fact that it appears twice in the Sent folder?

  • How do I backup and view text messages from my iphone 4?

    How do I backup and view text messages from my iphone 4? I want to know where and how to backup and view text messages and all other personal files, including voicemail, recent calls, etc. from my iphone. Is this function in iTunes and/or does iTunes already backup this stuff when I sync?
    I really just want the answer to how and where this works.
    Thanks

    Apple provides functionality in the backup done via iTunes to backup the device and text messages.  There is no functionality to view the text messages on the computer.
    About iOS backups
    Other programs are available which can extract text messages from the device or the iTunes created backup and then be viewed on the computer.  To my knowledge, no program exists which can force backed up text messages into the device once they've been removed.
    Google is your friend when looking for 3rd party software related to text messages.

    Hey dthompson2108, 
    Thanks for participating in the Apple Support Communities. 
    You can sync contacts between your iPhone and MacBook Pro using iCloud or iTunes.
    See this link for help with setting up iCloud on your computer and device(s):
    Apple - iCloud - Learn how to set up iCloud on all your devices.
    Instead of turning on iCloud on your iPhone and Mac, you can sync using iTunes as explained in this article:

    All the best,

    My iPhone 5S drowned in a rainstorm. How can I retrieve contacts and text messages from iCloud backup onto my iPad mini? There are some contacts on the iPad already but nowhere near all of them. I need to re-enter the contacts manually into an iPhone 4 as it does not support iOS 8.

    Let me get this straight.....You lost your phone.  You never backed it up, either to your computer or to a cloud service.
