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.

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.
JUST OUT OF CURIOSITY, POST WHICH FIRMWARE YOU ARE RUNNING EXACTLY!!!
I'm on an iPhone 4, running firmware 4.0.1

  • How do I transfer my music from my iPhone to my new Macbook Pro?

    I'm wondering how I can transfer my music, etc from my iPhone to my new Macbook Pro?

    The iphone is not a storage/backup device.  The syncis one way -  computer to iphone.  The only exception is itunes purchases: File>Devices>Transfer Purchases
    You should copy everything from your old computer or your backup copy of your old computer to your new one.

    The pics came fro your computer in the first place.  They should still be there and you should always have a backup copy.

  • Can I stream Netflix from my iPhone 4 to my MacBook Pro?

    Can I use my iPhone 4 (AT&T) to stream to stream Netflix to my (Dec, 2010) MacBook Pro? . . Would it be possible with an iPhone HDMI adapter, a HDMI cable and a HDMI to mini displayport adapter?
    Are there other streaming non-music media services that might work as well.
    There seems to be a fare number of people who would be interested in utilizing there unlimited data package on a bigger hi-res screen.
    Thank you for you're help.

    The mini-Displayport is for output only — you can't feed a signal into it. I suppose there's a chance that this ability may become available through the Thunderbolt port in the 2011 and later models, but we'll have to wait and see.

  • Why can I not upload any images from my iPhone 4 to my Macbook Pro? Please help!

    Hi all,
    I'm pretty much tearing my hair out with this one, I don't know what to do - I simply cannot upload any photos from iPhone 4 to Macbook Pro.
    This problem appeared out of the blue. I am trying to upload to iPhoto - not working. I have clearing the cache - not working. Tried the Dropbox app - not working and the option has now disappeared altogether. Tried Image Capture - not working. I went and had my iPhone replaced altogether - still not working. I thought it might be a problem with my iPhone or a problem with the back-ups or sometthing so I plugged in my boyfriend's to scope it out - still not working. I have restarted all devices many times. I have read through posts and posts about this and cannot find an answer.
    iPhoto says: unreadable files - unrecognized format - not true!!
    Image Capture just says there is an error importing.
    Any help would be much appreciated - it's driving me mad!
    Thank you!

    I am assuming it's not a problem with the iPhone has I have tried several iPhones and had the same problem.

  • Syncing Contacts from my iPhone 4 to my MacBook Pro

    I have my Contacts on my iPhone 4 but there is nothing stored on my MacBook Pro - how do I share the contacts with my MacBook Pro and then keep them sync'd?
    I also have my Hotmail a/c set up to sync with my iPhone, although the contacts don't copy between them either.
    I see there is an option to sync contacts via iTunes when I dock my iPhone but am reluctant to use that until I understand what I'm doing (in case it copies from my Mac to the phone, rather than visa versa).
    I have also reset my sync history via iSync.
    Thanks.

    Enter at least one UNIQUE contact on your computer ( could be a dummy contact).  When you first sync, then you should get the option to merge the data.

  • Transferring my contacts, itunes music, apps, address book, and pics from my iphone to my new MacBook Pro

    I bought a new MacBook Pro 4 months ago, had some issues with it, brought it to Best Buy Geek Squad and they   . Now I would like to sync my iphone 4 with my computer. However, when I go to do that a message appears that says the computers current information will transfer to the iphone. Well there isn't anything on my computer and so I am afraid if I follow through with it my iphone will lose everything. I am mainly concerned about my address book, itunes and pictures. Is there any way for me to transfer from the iphone to the MacBook Pro?
    My husband also has an iphone. I'd like to be able to also sync itunes with his phone but not the contacts. Any suggestions?

    You might want to ask your question in the iPhone forum - https://discussions.apple.com/community/iphone/using_iphone.
    While all of us here have MacBook Pros, not everyone (including myself!) have an iPhone.
    Then again, some MBP/iPhone user may come along with an answer to your question... but I'd post it in the iPhone forum were I you.
    Good luck,

  • I need help moving my pictures from my iPhone 5s to my Macbook Pro

    I had my iPhone synced with a hard drive that i just swapped out with a solid state. I lost all of my pictures on my old hard drive, but they are all still on my iPhone. There in a folder labeled "Macbook Photos", but i can not figure out how to transfer those photos onto my new hard drive. All of the photos in my camera roll sync up to iPhoto with no problems, but all my other ones stay on the iPhone. Does anybody know a trick to move these hidden photos onto my Macbook Pro?

    Hey WinstonR22,
    Thanks for the question. I see you came from the most relevant article, so you are definitely on the right track. You'll want to follow the steps in this article for transferring information using iTunes:
    iOS: Transferring information from your current iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch to a new device
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2109
    Excerpt:
    7. When the restore process is complete, your device will restart. Then it will be ready for use. You should keep your device connected to iTunes to sync data not contained in the backup (such as music, videos, apps, and so on). You can verify and change which data are synced by clicking the syncing tabs in iTunes.
    Note: If you restored from an unencrypted backup, you will need to enter password for your Apple ID, email and other accounts and voicemail again. If you've forgotten your voicemail password, contact your carrier.
    Thanks,
    Matt M.

    Thanks,

    Idealy the way to go is to transfer your music from your old computer to the new one and then sync with it.
    However if you do not still have the computer then these are your options
