App to convert long voice memos to text

Is anyone aware of an app (on Mac or iPhone) that can convert long (over a couple minutes) dictation to text? Dragon Dictation for iPhone works great, but it only handles recordings up to 30 seconds. It seems like there would at least be some Mac app that could convert longer .m4a voice memo files....?

Sync them in iTunes via the phone Music pane. You'll find this at the bottom of the page:
They will go into your music library and a voice memos playlist will be created.

  • Can I use Mac Dictate to convert voice memos to text?

    Can I use Mac Dictate to convert voice memos to text?

    If by "Mac Dictate", you mean the built in speech-to-text feature, no, you can't use that to convert a voice memo, at least not easily. Speech-to-text is designed to work on live speech, not recordings. But, there's no harm in trying.

    How do I convert my Voice Memo from iPhone 5s to a text file?

    If you have Evernote, you could try quicktate.   http://www.quicktate.com
    I convert voice memos on my Mac using the Dictation feature:
    Open TextEdit on a new document
    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.
    Press the fn-key twice, to finish Dictation.  You will only see the transcribed text, when Dictation has finished.

  • With new iTunes 12, I can no longer convert a voice memo to an mp3 file type

    Prior to the update to iTunes 12, I was easily able to convert a voice memo to an mp3 or mpeg audio file.
    With iTunes 12, if you select Create New Version, mp3 is grayed out.
    They changed it.
    Help!

    I changed Preferences>General>Import Settings to mp3 and this gave me the option to encode existing wav files to mp3. Hope this helps.

  • With my iPhone 5s, can I record long voice memo to the cloud and not worry about storage on phone?

    With my iPhone 5s, can I record a long voice memo to the cloud and not worry about storage space on phone?

    You can't add music to the cloud, whether it will show there for streaming and redownloading depends upon what country that you are in. If you are in a country where music is available in the cloud then you don't have to download the music from the store, if you turn Settings > iTunes & App Store > Music (under the 'show all' heading) 'on' then you should be able to stream purchased music in the Music app without downloading it - your phone will need to be online in order to stream, and if using 3G/4G then it will use some of your data allowance.
    If you download an album or a track then it will be downloaded onto your phone. You can't upload music to the cloud from an iOS device. Whether music that you've bought shows for streaming depends upon what country that you are in and if the album or track remains in the store (unless you've subscribed to iTunes Match), and if you are connected to a network.

  • SYNCING / TRANSFERRING LONG VOICE MEMOS FROM IPHONE 4S to PC OR LION

    Hi all,
    I have a 37 minute long Voice Memo on my Voice Memos.
    I want to put it on my PC or mac and then delete it on my iphone 4S.
    How do I sync or transfer it to my PC?
    At the moment, I connect to the PC and the files show up on itunes inside the voice memos part of my iphone 4S naturally. THE WIERD THING is I try to drag it to my desktop or a pc folder and it doesn't work like mp3's would normally just transfer / copy???
    When I eject the iphone 4S from itunes. The voice memos will disappear also???
    If you have the answer, please tell me step by step since I'm a newbie.
    Thanks in advance!

    I also tried going into the app and emailing them to myself but the one I really need is over 25MB and therefore won't email.  And it definitely won't go through messages.

  • I found a bug in iOS 4.3.3 - Long voice memos

    Hello,
    i found a bug in iOS 4.3.3 for my iPhone 3GS
    Long voice memos can not be played
    In these cases, the iPhone saves the file not in the format M4A or can not open this file.
    This file is stored in the folder /var/mobile/Media/Recordings
    In This cases there can be find a file in the format MOV.
    During recording, the voice memo has the format MOV.
    When the voice memo stopped the file must be stored in the format M4A.
    For large files, there are currently problems.
    I use the program  iPhone Explorer and save the MOV-file on my computer.
    Now i can open it with QuickTime.
    Best regards from Germany!

  • HT1550 how to convert a voice memos to MP3

    Hello,
    I need to convert a voice memo to MP3 then upload to FPT, any ideas?
    Thanks very much.

    I don't know what the format of the iPhone recordings is, but presumably it's something you can play in iTunes?
    If so: in iTunes Preferences click the 'Import Settings' button and in the top drop-down menu choose 'MP3 encoder'. You can set the bitrate etc using 'Custom settings' in the second menu if you want.
    Now drag the recordingh into the iTunes Music list. Select it, and from the Advanced menu choose 'Create MP3 version' to make an MP3 copy. You can drag this out to the Desktop and delete both it and the original from iTunes.

  • How do i convert a voice memo into MP3 with itunes 12?

    I need to convert a voice memo into MP3 with itunes 12.

    Today, I emailed myself an .m4a voice recording from an Android smartphone that had created that sound file minutes earlier.
    After opening that email message, I saved the .m4a sound file (a whopping 352 KB) to my Mac (iMac 21.5 inch running Yosemite).
    Clicking on the sound file's icon launched iTunes (version 12.0.1.26), which then did nothing no matter what I tried.
    However, when I selected the file on the desktop and navigated to the Finder/File/Open With dropdown window, a dialog box opened with alternative applications to use for opening the sound file. The available applications shown were VLC, QuickTime Player, Flip Player, and RealPlayer. I was pleased to find that VLC, QuickTime, Flip Player, and RealPlayer each opened and played the file straightforwardly and flawlessly.
    Apparently, Flip Player Pro (which I do not own) has a "save as" feature that might help you convert the file to the format you desire.

    I recorded a long voice memo and can't listen to it or send it to my email. It keeps saying "preparing failed and "is being optimized for sharing at this time" help!!

    Hi there,
    The recording is an hour and 25 mins.
    I have never been able to listen to it. When I hit play, it freezes and
    doesn't play.
    I get the error message when I'm trying to send to myself.
    Love and Light,

  • Convert Voice Memos to Text?

    I record all my meeting with my advisor with my iPod using Voice Memo. The meetings last from 30 minutes to an hour. Since it can take a while to transcribe, I was really hoping to find a tool that would transcribe it to text for me. Does anyone know any tools that will do this for me?
    Thank you,
    Susan

    Unfortunately, consumer technology hasn't really advanced so far as to take a relatively low fidelity recording (such as that on an iPod) and turn it into text.
    There is dictation software, such as DragonNaturallySpeaking, but this software requires practice to get it to comprehend the speech, and it is highly doubtful that it would recognize the recording.
    Sorry. Guess it's back to the pen and paper!

  • 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.
