How do I sync voice memos and notes?

I use windows and will never use a MAC as I hate them and only like apples Iphone. I have an Iphone 5 and use version 11.0.2.26 of itunes. I had an older Iphone 4g with lots of voice memos on it and I cannot for the life of me figure out how to get itunes to sync the voice memos onto it and then put them onto my new phone. Can anyone let me know how to do this? Thanks.
Also - is there a way to sync my notes from my old iphone 4g to my new iphone 5 on itunes? If you know how can you please advise also - this would be much appreciated. Thanks very much. :-)

You must have a supported program on your computer to sync with (such as Outlook or mac iCal). The list of supported programs is shown in this article: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1296.

How do you sync voice memos and make CD's of them?

How do you sync voice memos and make CD's of them?

When you sync the phone with your computer voice memos are copied to your iTunes library with the Genre "Voice memo".
To burn to CD you do it the same way you would any music; create a playlist of the memo(s), the right click on the playlist and choose "burn to CD".

Itunes will only allow me to sync voice memos and not the music library...

This is the screen I get when I'm pugged in to USB to my computer, iPhone 6s and my iPad Mini. Have to manually download each song and the iPad used to sync. iTunes match is actually off too.
OS X 10.10.1
Itunes 12.0.1.26
Anyone know what's going on.?
Thanks advance.

I have this same problem using iTunes 12.0.1.26 on Windows 8.1 connecting to an iPad Mini running IOS 8.0

How do you sync voice memos?

I have new voice memos that I would like to sync, however I dont know how to do it. I have synced memos in the past and they are on itunes. how do I sync new memos?

From the Users Guide:
Syncing Voice Memos
iTunes syncs voice memos to your iTunes library when you connect iPod touch to
your computer. This lets you listen to voice memos on your computer and provides a
backup if you delete them from iPod touch.
Voice memos are synced to the Voice Memos playlist. iTunes creates the playlist if it
doesn’t exist. When you sync voice memos to iTunes, they remain in the Voice Memos
app until you delete them. If you delete a voice memo on iPod touch, it isn’t deleted
from the Voice Memos playlist in iTunes. However, if you delete a voice memo from
iTunes, it is deleted from iPod touch the next time you sync with iTunes.
You can sync the iTunes Voice Memos playlist to the Music app on iPod touch using
the Music pane in iTunes.
Sync the Voice Memos playlist to iPod touch:
1 Connect iPod touch to your computer.
2 In iTunes, select iPod touch in the Devices list.
3 Select Music at the top of the screen.
4 Select the “Include voice memos” checkbox and click Apply.

How to stop syncing voice memos

iTunes is driving me crazy because every time I sync my iPhone 5S 16GB it is importing my voice memos into my Library despite the fact that I have done the following:
the "sync only checked songs and videos" box is checked
the "include voice memos" box is UNCHECKED
all of the "genre" boxes are unchecked
I have no music on my phone
I am using iTunes 11.1.2.32 on my Windows PC and iOP 7.1.2 on my phone.
The only thing that I can report that works is turning off "Sync Music" entirely.
Related, the only strange thing I can report is that when I go to the Sync Music page in iTunes, when my phone is connected by the cable, and check the box for "Sync Music," the amount of space left on my phone drops from 3.34 GB to 2.89 GB -- even though ALL of the boxes are unchecked for playlists, artists, genres, and albums, and it says "0 Songs."
It is as if there's another whole category of songs it is syncing but it won't show it to me.
I went to the Apple store today and they had no clue.
Thanks for any ideas.

How many Gigs do you have on your computer? if you convert the voice memos to AAC which is possible after you put them on iTunes, they take up virtually no room.
When you plug in your iPod and a notice comes up asking if you want iTunes to put the voice memos from your iPod into your Library, selct "No".
If you want the voice memos to stay off your computer, your going to have to manage every manually, if you have iTunes manage automatically, it will delete the memos off your iPod because iTunes duplicates Movies, Music, TV shows, Memos, etc, from iTunes directly to iPod. Managing all material manually is a heavy price to pay just to keep memos off your computer. That's the way it goes. If any knows hows to keep the memos out of the Library but still keep on the iPod, that would be pretty intelligent of them.

Newly repaired laptop- how can I sync voice memos from to itunes from my iphone without erasing the contents of my phone?

Hi,
Can anyone help with this? MyDell laptop died and I had to wipe it and start all over again. I use voice memos a lot for work and I need to sync them onto my PC so I can email them to people. However, since I fixed my laptop and redownloaded itunes I can't sync my iphone without first erasing everything that's on it. Sigh. Please help!!

Sync is only oneway, from PC to your device. Unless you have the music on your PC, iTunes is going to wipe out what you have on your device if you are syncing to a new library.
Try move your iTunes library folder from old computer to the new one.

How do I sync voice memos from an iphone 4s to my PC?

i plugged in my phone via usb to my computer and then i authorised the computer for the phone
and now, I want to transfer the voice memos from my phone to my computer so that I can listen to it there
however whenever i click sync it says that i've synced the phone with another computer and the only way to sync is to erase everything on my phone which obviously defeats the purpose of me transferring my voice memos to my comp.
how can i change the settings or whatever to get the memos to my computer and allow me to sync without erasing everything?
is there any way without having to download some sketchy app to help me?
i just want to change the settings of my phone to sync with this computer and still have my voice memos.
any help would be greatly appreciated

To follow this user tip using iTunes 11, fist go to View>Show Sidebar. Also, Transfer Purchases (step 5) is now in File>Devices.
If they're too large to email and you don't want to sync, the only other option is to use 3rd party software to transfer them using usb, such as PhoneView (Mac only) or Touch Copy (PC or Mac).

How to un-sync a calendar and NOT delete ANY events? Please help!

Hi,
I seem to be the only one with this problem. I search all over and can't find information for what I want to do, everyone wants to do the opposite.
So basically I had a job and an iphone. I used my calendar at work for personal events and so forth. I synced the calendar on my work's exchange server to my iphone. Then I lost my job. My password no longer works, so sync fails and it keeps asking for my password and draining my battery. I try to cancel sync, and the iphone threatens to delete all my events. I don't want to delete my events, i just don't want it to keep trying to connect to my old job. How can I keep all my calendar events and not get nagged every 10 seconds to enter a password?
I do not have outlook on my home computer either.
Thanks!

OK, so i bit the bullet and canceled my sync to my calendar at my old work.
My old calendar events are now gone. All of them. The stuff added through my outlook at my old work is gone. The personal stuff added on my iPhone directly is gone. The stuff added on my phone after it stopped syncing with my old work is gone. My calendar is COMPLETELY EMPTY now.
Can someone explain this to me?

How do you Sync your music and not erase your movies?

I purchased my first movie from Itunes via my laptop. I synced it to my Ipod Touch along with syncing my music, and everything was fine.
Today I wanted to sync just my music (different playlist), and I got a message that my movies would be removed from my IPT (or something to that effect). The movie took quite long to sync to the IPT, and I was in a rush, so I didn't do anything.
How can I sync my music without having to re-sync the movie?

go to your iphone un itunes > music and put all the music or select the song and itunes will put the songs that are not on the iphone, if it's an iphone which has been synchornized with another itunes it will ask you to erase all the songs and sync the songs you have

Syncing voice memos to iTunes

Got me an iPod touch, 64GB. Using it a lot for Voice Memos. But even though I've set iTunes to "sync voice memos", and even though I've got my voice memos on iTunes already. every time I plug in the iPod it asks if I want to add the "new voice memos" to iTunes. I don't want to, because I have them on iTunes already - and if I accept, it just doubles them up. Am I missing something obvious in the settings here?
Thanks
Tony

UPDATE - Apparently large files cannot be mailed out. So far I can verify that a 27 minute memo cannot be mailed.

How to change the already synced voice memo status to not yet sync

Hi
When syncing my iPhone with my computer, some random error occurred and thus the syncing process was not completed and it was forced to stop. Due to this reason, i have 5 voice memos were not transferred into my computer but all of the voice memos were marked with today's date under the 'Date Added" column. In fact, they were all not transferred into my computer. Any advice or solution for this kind of problem?
Thanks in advance

Some Voice Memos do not sync, Voice Memos tab under iPhone blank

I have all my iPhone music and videos manually managed, but somehow the voice memos got synced to my iTunes automatically each time I click Sync iPhone under the album "Voice Memos" and artist name "&MyPhoneName" which is fine by me. Is that normal? How to turn it on or off?
Then I notice that some of the voice memos do not sync, and the Voice Memo tab under iPhone is blank. All the voice memos are still in my iPhone. How does that happen?

In the music part of your iphone in itunes, uncheck the box for syncing voice memos. Then apply changes. Check that it is all gone on your iphone. Go back to itunes and check the box for voice memos and sync. Itunes would copy the voice memos back to your iphone in the process.
that worked for me. +Don't forget to update to ios 6 latest, as apple fixed (at least improved) the bug causing wrongly sync music/voice memos not appearing.
