IPhone 5 long voice memos not synced in iTunes

Hi,
Today, I've recorded 3 voice memo longer than 3 hours long on my iPhone 5, iOS8.
I've checked "sync Voice Memos" in the Music tab of iTunes 11.4 sync, but those new memo don't get synced.
By the way, looking into the "on my iPhone" tab, I can't see the recordings. I can see older recordings, though.
I can play all the voice memos on the iPhone, including the 3 recordings of today.
I've tried to send them via email but they don't get through, probably because they are too big.
AirDrop on iOS8 doesn't seem to be able to "speak" with Mac Os X 10.9.4's AirDrop.
Any way I can get those big recordings transferred ?

Hi,
I found a solution.
Maybe it helps, if anybody has the asme issue.
Download iBrowse (http://www.ibrowseapp.com), and the recordings will be accessible, even those hidden by iTunes.
I could export my recordings with that software.
This is definitely a bug of iTunes or IOS, and if Apple reads this, they might want to fix it.

HT1386 Voice Memos not syncing with iTunes iOS 8.1 (12B411) iTunes 11.4 (18)

My phone is an iPhone 5.
I have tried everything I can think of.
Any voice memo older than last week will not transfer to my itunes on my mac.
I just recorded 2 new ones and they transferred fine.
When I open up itunes on my macbook pro and click on "On This iPhone" all my voice memos don't show up even though I have over 30 of them in the phone.
Only the last 2 show. And when I go to itunes music library only one shows up which is the one I just recorded as a test.
Any sugestions?
(Today is Tuesday October 21, 2014)
Thanks in advance.

Iphone 4s voice memos not syncing to itunes?

hi all,
i have an iphone 4s, purchased in october 2011. all the software is up to date, as is the software on my macbook pro (running 10.5.8). the itunes version i use is 10.5.3.
i used the voice memos function for the first time recently, have two recordings of workshops, one is 45 mins long, the other about 1 hour 15 mins long. when i came home, i connected my iphone to the macbook, launched itunes, checked the box under the music tab that said "include voice memos" and hit sync. when done syncing, i saw that under all the playlists was a section for voice memos, but nothing in it. my phone has the two voice memos, but the itunes, after syncing everything, does not. i repeat, this is despite having checked the "include voice memos" box.
has anyone faced this issue before? is there any way for me to transfer these memos to my computer? any way to get the syncing to work?
any help would be greatly appreciated.
hope the new year is treating everyone well so far. cheers!...r

I've always had the "Include Voice Memos" option selected. I think that only pertains to syncing voice memos from iTunes to the iPhone after it has been copied to iTunes. It has to be the new OS/iTunes not communicating that new memos have been recorded. For some reason they won't sync when I want them to, and then a few syncs later they magically appear.
By the way, I'm VERY comfortable with the iTunes and iPhone systems. I've been using iTunes for 5 years, and I've been recording class lectures with the iPhone voice memo app (and another app) for a couple years. It's not an error of not seeing that the memos were added; they don't exist in my library or music folders.

IPhone (4) Voice Memos not Syncing to New iTunes 10.0

I'm currently on an iPhone 4 (4.0.1 firmware) and I've been experiencing issues getting my voice memos to sync to my iTunes library.
The last time this worked was August 27, 2010 which added 3 voice memos to my iTunes library successfully. Since then, I have not yet updated my firmware but have installed the new iTunes 10.0. I have 8 new voice memo recordings on my phone since the last successful sync, and I've tried syncing my phone four times today, Sept. 4, (restarting iTunes and my iPhone) with no luck. I tried recording a new voice memo to see if iTunes 10 would recognize any memos recorded after the installation but that failed as well.
Is anyone else experiencing this problem?

Voice memos not syncing to iphone

I can’t seem to get my voice memos to sync back to my iphone 5 from the computer. I have all the voice memo boxes checked. The “voice memo” playlist is not showing up at all. On the second playlist, made up of a mixture of a couple of voice memos and 2 other tunes, the playlist with 2 other tunes show up but the 3 voice memos do not come with it.

Voice Memo not syncing as advertised.

Voice Memos arent working right for me. I have them set to sync, but itunes never did sync them no matter what I did (I thought). So I manually created the Voice Memo playlist it was supposed to make for me, then it finally started automatically putting them in there. It actually was syncing the files over to my main library with just a time and date file name... but no play list and no easy way to find them all or manage them all without searching for each one individually.
Any change I make in iTunes does not change anything on my iPhone in the Voice Memo app. Deleting them from the playlist leaves them in my library, I have to search my library for the date names they are saved as and delete them from there. After deleting them from iTunes, it does not remove them in Voice Memo from my iPhone, they are still there. Syncing my iPhone puts them back as music files onto my iPhone, and they are still in Voice Memo separately... its very confusing because this isnt how Apple said its supposed to work. Maybe the playlist is set up wrong because I had to manually do it and it wont auto create one?

That's interesting. That was not my experience as I played around with Voice Memos.
Interestingly, even though I have the Include Voice Memos checked, voice memos that are in iTunes, but have been deleted from the Voice Memo App do not get synced back to the iPhone. With the box unchecked, Voice Memos don't seem to get synced back to iTunes at all.
I also can't seem to get the Voice Memos playlist to show up in the iPod at all.

mines not working like that at all... not even close.... i get multiple copies... also it will NOT create a Voice Memos playlist for me. I've tried over and over. If I manually create one called Voice Memos, it uses it, but I don't think its using it right since it keeps syncing the same memos every time to get multiple copies.

IOS 7.1.1 Voice Memos not syncing

I have selected "include voice memos" under "Sync Music" in iphone.
Since updating to 7.1.1 my voice memos are not downloading to my computer.
I have logged-out of iTunes store and shut down iTune multiple time and disconnected phone from computer, ensured that my phone is unlocked prior to sync and transfer. All to no avail.
Of course its only two files that I am trying to get off of my phone, but still...
What am I doing wrong?

Voice Memos not syncing from my iPhone 3GS to my MacBook Pro. Sync music is ticked in iTunes along with include Voice Memos box

Hi, I am trying to get my voice memos from my iPhone 3GS to my MacBook Pro via iTunes and it is not working. I have ticked sync music in the music tab of the iPhone device and the include voice memos box is also ticked. So, apparently this should work, but there is no sign of the voice memos in iTunes or in the iTunes folder in the finder window. Any ideas much appreciated! :-) Thank you.

New voice memos not syncing from iphone to itunes

My voice memos are not syncing from my iPhone4 to iTunes. Everything has been restarted. Everything is up-to-date. The voice memo box is checked. What is going on? Thanks.

Hey Colonel,
I read this on another thread then confirmed it when I bought an App on my iPhone then did a sync. At first, it appeared that the App was being copied to the iTunes library, but when I checked under Applications, it was not there.
So I went to the File menu, and selected Transfer Purchases from iPhone. It again showed that it was copying to iTunes, and this time it really did.
Not sure why it's not automatic, but it's a minor extra step.

Voice memos not syncing due to match

I currently have some voice memos in AAC format or other files in MPEG formats that do not sunc with my phone or pad since I have iTunes Match on.
Is there a way to manually bring over the files? When I plug in phone or pad teh default is match which does not allow manual drag drop.
Kinda stcuk apprecaite the help!
Andy

Actually I have 3 types files, all labeled as voice memos.
1 File was actually a voice memo and does sync with my iphone.
2nd file was a voice recording unknown as to how created, but I converted it to AAC since voice memos are AAC, this one does not work with getting to my iphone or ipad. story if anyone cares is of an aunt telling life story before passing so not "oh yeah "unknown recording"... hahaha, not napster" It does play on my computer but with iTues Match unable to get it to move to any device, the file is large, 330MB
3rd file was a voice recording and is MPEG format but I have chenged it to AAC and even changed the genre to Voice memo but I am unable to move it to my iphone or ipad. Again not napster, this was a speech that is freely downloadable file. about 11MB.
Appreciate the help and not sure why or if I am the first one to notice this problem with iTunes Match not uploading files.
