How do I stop voice memo app?

New Iphone 5s. Preloaded is an app called Voice memo. I tried it, recorded a sentence. Hit done. Instead, it says voice memo is paused. I cannot get the red bar reading Verizon voice memo paused. When I go back to Home button, the voice memo app looks normal, just another app. But if I hit the app, up pops the red (orance?) bar saying Verizon memo paused. Please advise.

Well thanks a lot! (Just kidding) I just tried it on mine and ended up with the same problem! I eventually figured it out. Open the voice memo app and tap the word "Done" beside the big red button; it will then ask you to name it (you can just leave it "New Recording"). Once you've completed that, it will be in a list with an "Edit" at the top left which you can then use to delete it.
I think the confusing thing (at least for me) is that I originally interpreted the word "Done" as a label for the red pause button.

  • How do I stop Voice Memos from showing up in the iPod App?

    I have an iPhone 4.   I do not want Voice Memos to pass through to the iPod app.  I really don't want them in iTunes either, but I can live with that I suppose.  In iTunes, in the iPhone section, under the Music tab, "Include Voice Memos" is NOT checked.  However, after I record new voice memos, the next time I sync, they go into iTunes and right into the iPod app.  Then when I'm playing the "Recently Added " playlist (my new music), I hear my voice ("And here is my recap of today's marketing meeting") which I do NOT want to hear in iPod.  Thanks for any help.

        Hi preserve,
    This is very strange! I have the LG G2 phone and my text messages do not go to my email. What text messaging application applications are you using? Are all text messages going to your email or only those from certain contacts? I use Verizon Messages http://bit.ly/13rcZfv and all my messages flow very nice. Please post answers to the above questions and we'll explore options to resolve.

  • How do I stop voice memos from crashing on Iphine 5 version 6.1.4

    Hi,
    When I start Voice Memos, the screen showing the microphone flashes on and immediately disappears. The icon is still in the active bar (double click on Home button)
    This issue has been presented in a few posts, but with no response that is successful.
    I tried the reboot process (Home button and Sleep Button) but issue was not resolved.
    Has anyone else had this issue, and have you found a solution,  or do I have to simply write off a versatile app for my iPhone as no longer supported by the IOS?
    JD

    try a reset all settings ...good luck

  • How to transfer old Voice Memos back into Memos on app iPhone?

    I have just upgraded to ios 7 and it has deleted all of my old Voive Memos from my iPhone. I still have them all in my iTunes, but how can i transfer them back into the Voice Memos app on the phone?
    Whenever I select to import voice memos from iTunes on my MacBook, all it does is load them into Music on my phone. But they dont show up in the voice memos app, and having them all in the music folder on my phone is really annoying because whenever i record a new memo in voice memos it stays in voice memos and then i have them in two places...
    This is only a problem with all of my old voice memos that ios 7 deleted.... is there a way to transfer them back into voice memos on the phone and not have to store them seperately in the phones music folder?
    Thanks in advance.

    thanks for the reply, although this wasn't actually how i did it.
    Selecting genre as "Voice Memo" didn't seem to make any difference, but going to the file info, then options, and then selcting "media kind" and "voice memo", NOT "music", is how i did it in the end.
    Then all i had to do was check "include voice memos".
    Cheers!

  • How can I transfer a sound file from my "Voice Memos" app on my iPhone to my iPad?

    How can I transfer a sound file from my "Voice Memos" app on my iPhone to my iPad?

    In iTunes with your iPhone connected, click on the iPhone device, select the Apps tab, scroll down to the File Sharing section and pick an app that plays Quicktimes ("Files Connect" works in this example, but I'm open to suggestions of better apps for playing transferred Quicktimes) and drag your Quicktime from Finder to the Documents pane for the File Sharing app.   Once the file transfer is complete, go to the app on your iPhone to play the Quicktime.

  • How can I get my voice memos back to the voice memo app on my iphone

    Yeah, i just synced my iphone with my iTunes library and almost everything went smooth..  my pictures, apps, contacts, calendar, etc.  But I can not find the most important thing, the voice memos..  I had transferred them to my iTunes library the last time i synced, so i thought logically they should sync back into my voice memo app. Its important because they were lectures (im in college)!  And I planned to keep in order until the end of the semester until i had to restore it and back it up (because i went to get a new iphone)..
    But now, i open the voice memo app, and its blank, there's not one memo..  And i don't know how to get them back in there..  I think i could put them in my Music library, but i dont want to do that.   I like to keep them in the voice memo app, so when i have exams i can just go back and listen to them in order (without them being all over the place.) 
    So all I'm asking is, is there a way to get my voice memos back to the voice memo app?  I have the latest version of iTunes (11.0.1.12) and an iPhone 4 with the latest iOs (6.0.1) and note i have a PC (Windows 7)..    I hate how iTunes totally changed their layout, it makes it harder.  That's why i couldn't follow older discussions on here, because the update made the layout so different..  Anyway, if you know what i should do, i would be very grateful.  Thanks. 

    Hey mahongue!
    I have some information here that may help you import your voice memos into iTunes. This information is written for the iPod, but the steps for saving your voice memos should be the same with your iPhone:
    Synchronize
    If iPod is set to update songs automatically and you record voice memos, the voice memos are automatically downloaded to a playlist in iTunes when you connect iPod. Once downloaded, the voice memos are removed from the Voice Memos folder on your iPod. To play the voice memos that have been synchronized to your computer in iTunes, select the Voice Memos playlist on the left side of the iTunes window. To play the synchronized voice memos on the iPod, select the Voice Memos playlist in the Music menu, not the Voice Memos menu in the Extras menu.

  • I recently updated my 5th gen ipod touch to the newest operating system release. Since then, I can no longer play back voice recordings I have stored or since recorded in my Voice Memo app. How can I access my stored recordings?

    A few days ago, I updated the OS. Since then, I have been unable to access saved recordings on my Voice Memo app. Additionally, recordings I have made since then have been made unavailable to me as well. All of the recordings are listed, but will not play when I select the play option, nor will the app allow me to edit them if I wanted to change their names, or something. There is nothing noticably wrong with the touch screen itself, meaning, there are no dead spots that do not respond to touch. I cannot figure out why the memos will not play.
    Is this a glitch with the new update? If so, how do I revert back to the OS setting I had prior? Preferrably, I would like to find a fix for this situation in the condition my device is now without having to adjust the OS settings.

    Can you record and play new VMs?
    Can you sync them to your computer?
    Try:
    - Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost       
    Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Reset all settings      
    Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
    All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
    - Restore from a back that was made then the VM played back. See:

  • My iPhone 5s's voice memo app is glitching - how can I fix it?

    I've tried resetting my phone, plugging it into my laptop, force quitting it, and nothing has worked.

    Any solutions?

    Hello there EarlofPhilly,
    It sounds like you have reset your phone by holding the Sleep/Wake and Home buttons, and quitting the Voice Memo app. This is exactly where I would have started as well, so next I would backup the phone to iTunes, and then restore it from the backup.
    Back up and restore your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch with iCloud or iTunes

  • How do you get the voice memo app on a nano I purchased today?

    I purchased a nano today, in the shop it had a voice memo app on but mine doesn't ?

    you need to plug in a microphone. If you have headphones with a built in mic like the ones that come with an iPhone, those should work.

  • IPhone 6 Voice Memos App Not Working

    I love my new iPhone 6 (with current iOS 8) but one of the standard apps I always use is Voice Memos.  The Voice Memo app launches but does not allow me to record anything.  When I press the red record button, it simply moves back and forth like I've entered a bad password.  To resolve, I've stopped and restarted the application multiple times, restarted my iPhone, etc but nothing seems to work.  Any ideas or suggestions on how to resolve?  Thanks.

    I have several apps that no longer work. I contacted a few of them and only one responded so far to tell me they are working on an upgrade so that it will work with ios4. It seems silly to me that Apple did not make it so your current apps would work with the new software. The upgrade is cool, but there is also no explanation of how some new features work, and having trouble with apps that I have already paid for does not make me very happy. Hopefully the updates don't take too long....

  • How do you get Voice Memos off the iPhone and onto my Mac???

    Is this yet another iPhone dead end??
    I used the Voice Memo app that comes with the iPhone to record some rehearsals and now I want to move them to my Mac, edit them, make CDs, share online.
    I can't find any way to get them off the iPhone, unless I click the "Share" button, which means I can email them. But, it won't let me email the longer ones. I don't know how large the files are, but it just won't do it. I don't see any other facility for moving these files to my Mac. What is up with that???? iTunes provides no access to these files.
    Is there some proprietary utility for the Mac that will allow me to access these files and move them to my Mac??? It would be nice if the iPhone would show up as a mounted volume which I could then browse for files, but that would make too much sense and be contrary to the control freak nature of Apple and it's iPhones/iPod Touches. I would call it another lousy user experience, but it's just a user non-experience, a complete dead end.
    Is there any way to get these Voice Memo files off of the iPhone besides emailing them??

    Thank you for replying!
    That kb article refers to the iPod Nano and not the iPhone nor the iPod Touch.
    The Synchronizing section you pointed to does not work. I have a big bunch of voice memos on the iPhone. I tried the sync. Three of them were moved to the Mac, the rest were ignored. Four others were moved to iTunes Music/Music/Unknown with numbered names (i had given several of the voice memos names with the Custom label on the iPhone). For the synch I selected "Include voice memos."
    After a sync, or several syncs, none of the other voice memos were moved to the Voice Memo playlist, nor are they in the iTunes Music library.
    How do you get them to sync? I need to move them off of the iPhone and onto my Mac!

  • How do I put voice memos from iphone to ipad.  They are already in Mac as a playlist, how do I put voice memos from iphone to ipad.  They are already in Mac as a playlist

    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

    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. Here is some more information on that if you want to check it out for future use: https://evernote.com/contact/support/kb/#!/article/28606837
