Problems syncing voice memos from iphone

When I am syncing my iphone, even though I have the "sync voice memos" box checked, my computer does not sync voice memos from my iphone. There is a voice memo playlist in my computer's iTunes but it does not show as a possible playlist to sync with my iphone. Can you help me?

Same problem. I just noticed that when I click the triangle next to my mounted iphone in itunes and then select the voice memos playlist (which should give me a window into what is actually on the phone) it does not show any voice memos past a date in June - and I have several dozen memos recorded since then. They are there when I look at them on the phone itself from within the voice memos app.
It seems that for some reason itunes just can't tell they are there??

Syncing voice memos from iPhone to computer

I've had my iPhone 3GS for a pretty decent amount of time. My computer recently crashed, and I didn't have it backed up, so I'm starting from scratch. I have several class lectures recorded on my phone and I'd like to sync them to my computer. I've found the 'sync voice memos' option, but I'm confused; if I allow it to sync, does that mean it will erase all of the voice memos from my phone and sync it with the computer(which doesn't have any voice memos... starting from scratch, remember?)? Or does that imply that it will import the voice memos from my phone to my laptop?

It will copy the voice memos from the iPhone to the computer. Voice memo sync is one way only; phone to computer. Deleting them on the computer does not affect those on the phone.

Problems with syncing voice memos from my iPhone 4 to my PC via iTunes,

It is not possible to sync voice memos from my iPhone 4 to my PC (Windows 7) using iTunes. everything else synchronizes well, except the voice memos. It used to work previously (same equipment), but now it doesn't anymore. What should I do ?

What is making you feel that the voice memos are not syncing? Are you seeing a folder created in the Playlist area called Voice Memos? Some have reported this is not necessarily being created, but the voice memos are still located in the Music library. I'm not at my main computer right now, so I cannot see how they are listed in the music library, but I know they are there.

How do you put Voice Memos from iPhone to computer?

I've had a very long chat with Apple Support and they don't seem to know the answer.
My voice memos are important and are above 30MB so emailing isn't an option.
I first synced my memos to my iTunes as usual (music doesn't sync with the library, bear in mind) and expected all my memos to appear, however they didn't. They appeared in the "on my device section" but I couldn't play them as the exclamation point appeared.
Under Apple's instruction I updated to the new iTunes, and now the previous memos don't even appear in the "on my device" section. They said it's likely to do with ios 8. The memos I want were created in ios 8. And now they've randomly been duplicated on my phone so I have two of each?
So after this iTunes update, I made a new memo, which again was duplicated, but now appears in the "on my device" part.
What do I do to put the memos onto my computer somehow? I really need them!

The following is pre iOS 8 but may have something that you missed: http://www.macworld.co.uk/how-to/iosapps/transfer-voice-memos-from-iphone-to-com puter-3526349/
One new thing I learned from it is that Evernote which I use for keeping some text notes in sync among various devices has a voice memo capability. Those would be automatically transferred.

Transfer voice memos from iPhone 5 to mac iTunes without replacing all music on iPhone

I have some new voice memos on my iPhone 5 as well as selected music from my iTunes.
I want to transfer the new voice memos to iTunes on my mac but it appears that it will since my itunes library to my phone.
The iPhone is connected to the mac. i am in iTunes and I go to the Device listed as iPhone and click on music.
When I click on the box that says Sync Music, I get a message that says
Are you sure you want to remove existing music, movies etc from this iPhone and sun with intones library...
I click cancel instead of remove and sync. In the sync music window in light grey I can see tha Selected playlists, artist and albums and genres is selected and include voice memos is checked.
On summary I have Manually Manage Music and Videos checked.
I just got the phone and i see on p 110 of the manual how to move recordings to your computer and it isn't doing what I want.
I would like to move the voicemails to the computer without syncing the library and I would like to manually move some songs from iphone to iTunes on the mac.
I also don't know if under Summary if I should check Sync only checked songs and videos
Mac mini 10.5.8
itunes 11.1.5
7.1.1 iphone 5
Thanks for any help.

I think you need to find a third-party tool to copy voice memos from iPhone to Mac because iTunes can't do it. And the only option Apple offers is to backup your iPhone, either to iTunes or iCloud. However, by doing this, voice memos are packed into the backup file package. You can't view them until restore your iPhone with the backup file.

I can get my voice memos from my iphone onto itunes on my Mac but when I sync my ipad, it doesn't sync. So I can only listen on my iphone using the voice memos app, which is very frustrating, since you cannot pause it and restart or gets interrupted when you get a call or on my computer. I would love to review some lectures I have taped on my ipad. Any way of doing this

Export Voice Memos from iPhone 4 to Mac/itunes

I'm trying to get Voice Memos from my iPhone 4 onto my computer so I can then subsequently put them on my iPhone 6. They didn't sync properly the first time I tried.
The apple support told me that I would have to use third party software. Anyone know of any free programs? (TunesGo only allows 20 songs before you have to pay).
THanks!

Syncing voice memos from multiple accounts to one iTunes library

I ran into an interesting one today. On the iMac at our house, we have 4 user accounts. All of them point to the same iTunes library (a shared directory that all can see). This has worked great so far, as we can all see all music, and updates are all there etc.
One of my daughters has been using the voice memo app to quickly record things she wants to keep. She has enough of them now she wants to make sure they get backed up. I searched the web and found that you can add syncing voice memos as an option in iTunes. However, my other daughter must also have that checked off, and now when we go into iTunes, we see Voice memos, but it's only from the one phone (i.e. it doesn't appear it will sync multiple phones to separate voice memo libraries or even to the same library).
Does anyone know if you can direct your voice memos to a specific library, or what other alternatives I might have? Ideally it would be automatic (like syncing) so that it's not something we forget to do.
Thx!

- Did it work before?
- Did you do this:
Moving recordings to your computer
You can sync voice memos with the iTunes library on your computer, and listen to them on your
computer or sync them with another iPod touch or iPhone.
When you delete a synced voice memo from iTunes, it stays on the device where it was recorded,
but it’s deleted from any other iPod touch or iPhone you synced. If you delete a synced voice
memo on iPod touch, it’s copied back to iPod touch the next time you sync with iTunes, but you
can’t sync that copy back to iTunes a second time.
Sync voice memos with iTunes. Connect iPod touch to your computer. Then in iTunes, select
iPod touch. Select Music at the top of the screen, select Sync Music, select “Include voice memos,”
then click Apply.
Voice memos synced from iPod touch to your computer appear in the Music list and in the Voice
Memos playlist in iTunes. Voice memos synced from your computer appear in the Voice Memos
app on iPod touch (but not in the Music app).
- Does any media now sync to the iPod?

How to extract large voice memos from iphone

I need to extract a large (50 minutes) voice memo from an iPhone 4s using iOS 8.1.1 I'm using a MacBook Air 11-early 2014 with OS X Yosemite (10.10.1)

Assuming you read the section of the link near the end about where to find them, the only other idea I have would be to try a 3rd party utility but there would be an expense. Following is one possibility: http://www.macroplant.com/iexplorer/tutorials/export-voice-memos-from-iphone-to- computer?gclid=CjwKEAiA4_WjBRCNgf7A_KeE9jwSJADtegYd7ZtHP5ToZ5GK8_FsbwEBnpl_dA4VR DeZhQxUGQ4jERoCh5Tw_wcB

Enable Dictation & Speech enabled the System Preferences.
Press the fn-key twice
Play the voice memo on the iPhone and let the Mac listen to it using the internal microphone with TextEdit open on a new document.

How to transfer voice memos from iPhone 4 to mac

Exporting voice memos from iphone doesn't retain their names

Hi,
I'm using an iphone 4 on Vista running the latest itunes (newest update, the whole firmware, itunes etc just updated right before I decided to post this).
I'm trying to save voice memo files from my iphone to my computer, but although they save and play back okay, they have been assigned a bunch of numbers (taken from the recording date and time perhaps) instead of keeping the name I gave them on the phone itself. There are far too many of them to drag off one at a time and rename manually.
So how can I save them all in one go whilst retaining the names I gave them on the iphone?
I've previously managed this - when I initially got the phone and started saving memos I once dragged and dropped a load of them from my iphone through itunes and they did retain their original names, but after trying numerous times since I cannot see how, although it must be possible?
Thanks!

You can transfer voice memos from iPhone to Mac by emailing:
Open the voice memo app and select the recording you want to transfer, then tap on the Share icon in the left corner under the Play button. Now you have the option to send it as a Mail.
Choose Mail then fill in the relevant details and hit send. This is fine for the occasional memo, but if you have several that you want to do at once - or have long recordings whose files sizes are not inbox friendly - then the best solution is to use iPhone Transfer for Mac.

Saving voice memos from iphone to mac

Hi all,
I've read a couple of threads re synching voice memos from my iphone to my mac. And i've followed the instructions (i.e. clicking the "include voice memos" under the synch music section in itunes). Trouble is when the synch runs and i go into itunes library to find the voice memos i cant find them. I've searched by typing in "voice memo" as well as manually searching through the entire library. The voice memos are still safely on my iphone, but not in my itunes library. Any clues?
