I tunes will not sync voice memos off of Iphone in yosemite

I just updated my macbookpro with the new Yosemite update. However, It won't let me sync voice memos off of my phone! I tried the same thing with my music library and I can only add to the iphone. It will sync music and voice memos on but not off. Photos and videos have come off my iphone so it is not an issue of nothing can be taken off. I have tried fiddling with new itunes forever but I just can't figure it out!
Oh and also it won't sync my contacts off my phone either....
If it helps, it is an iphone 4 so that may be a problem?
Please help, Thank you!

I use a program called iTools. It's an alternative for iTunes and it's more like import/export type of thing rather than sync. I like the windows version better but the Mac version works ok too. And it is free
It should look like this:

IPhone iOS 5.1.1 will not sync voice memos to iTunes

My iPhone running iOS 5.1.1 will not sync voice memos to iTunes. I have tried trimming the memos, and changed the label. No go. The "include voice memos" is checked on iTunes sync, but iTunes won't even create a voice memos playlist. Help? These are brand new recordings, and they are too long to email.

Try Handbrake to convert your movie to an iPhone format. Then reimport it to iTunes and synch to your phone.

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.

Sync Music will not sync voice memos. Why?

When I check "include voice memos" in Sync Music, and sync music, Voice Memos do not move into iTunes.
Memo is 33 minutes but that does not really seem, to me, to be an issue. A search does not find it nor is there a Voice Memo Folder created in iTunes
Ideas? Solutions?
Thanks

I didn't start this thread, but have the same question. I recently updated my iTunes and tried to sync and backup my iPhone so I can update to iOS7. Only, my music is not syncing from my iPhone to iTunes. Some of this music I have had for a couple of years and no longer have the CD for (I have teenagers...CDs damaged or missing). Out of 104 songs, only 3 are showing up. Any ideas?

HT1766 4 voice memos in iTunes backup from iPhone had ! marks and would not play so I deleted them and although they are still on the iPhone, they will not sync back to iTunes from iPhone.

You may have to try deleting all the music from your phone (by going to Settings>General>Usage>Music, swipping All Music and tapping Delete), then sync it all back on with iTunes in order to fix this.

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.

I want to take a voice memo off my iPhone, put it into iTunes Library and convert it to an .mp3. How do I get the voice memos from my phone? I can't seem to move them out of the Devices folder, no matter how much I try to copy and paste or drag and drop

I want to take a voice memo off my iPhone, turn it into and .mp3, and email it. My iPhone shows up under "Devices" in my iTunes but doesn't allow me to move the voice memo files I see sitting there into my Library no matter how much copying and pasting or dragging and dropping I try to do.
Also, I need to convert the file to an .mp3.
How come no voice memo files show up when I go into my iPhone via My Computer? All it shows are the videos and pictures in the DCIM folder, but not the voice memos. Is there another way to access the voice memos other than through iTunes?

Email it to yourself, then save the file and then see if you can convert it to MP3.

IBooks will not sync PDF collections with my IPhone. It syncs the collection title but not the content?

My IBooks will not sync PDF content with my IPhone. It syncs the collection title but no content. Both devices are set to sync collections? Any ideas how to fix this?

The 'sync collections' setting does not copy books or PDFs between devices - all it does is if you have the book on both devices and you move it into a collection on one of them, then it will be put into the same collection on the other device.
You will need to sync each PDF that you want on your phone. If you don't currently have them on your computer then connect your iPad to your computer's iTunes and do File > Devices > Transfer Purchases to copy them over (that should copy PDFs and/or epubs that are in the iBooks app, not just actual ibooks), and if using a Mac with Mavericks on it do File > Move Books From iTunes in the iBooks app on it, and you can then sync them to your iPhone.

My podcasts will not sync (icloud) between PC and iphone 4s and ipad 2

My podcasts will not sync (icloud) between PC and iphone 4s and ipad 2. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Make sure you are using ios 6.1 or later not 6.0.1 (or older). Your iTunes Notes setting for iPad and iPhone in iCloud. Also Notes setting in both devices are in iCloud.
My New iPad using 6.1 and iPhone 4S using 6.1.2. No problem sync Notes on both devices.
I hope this can help.

HT1351 I have 2 ipods -1st generation Nano and I pod Touch. I tunes will not sync with the former. It appears this has only been a problem since downloading I Tunes 11. On connecting the Nano I Tunes does not seem to recognise it in any shape or form.

Old Nano will not sync with I Tunes ? dates to downloading I Tunes 11 Using original connections ? Any comments

Never mind, turns out that by uninstalling the programs "Megakey" and "Megaupload" it had resolved this issue.

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!

Mp3 will not sync from iTunes desktop to iphone

Hi All,
I have some mp3 files (voice recordings purchased from Darren Hardy) that I imported into my iTunes Library just fine on my Mac OSX desktop.
However, those files simply will not sync up with my iPhone like the other 1900-odd songs in my library do just fine.
I'm not a total dope, but this one's got me baffled. I've tried reboots, resyncs, changing the files from music to audiobooks, nothing obvious seems to work.
And BTW, there's no indication in the Get Info box that there is any DRM on them.
Any ideas?
Thanks,
Chris.

Oh, and iTunes 11.4

How do I get voice memos off an iphone which hasn't yet been synced with my computer before?

I know that voice memos can usually be transferred to itunes by syncing my phone with itunes however the iphone I am using has never been plugged into my laptop. When I plug it in it gives me two options: to restore from a backup or to set up as a new phone. Both options mean wiping all the data currently on my iphone. The voice memos are a total of 3h30mins which I would rather not have to email to myself in 105 two minute clips! I know there is software available for extracting files from iphones onto PCs/macs but I'm not sure what will work with a phone that hasn't been recognized by the computer before. I have also in the past wasted almost $100 on an app (desperately trying to retrieve lost voice memos!) which did absolutely nothing, so I'd rather not waste my money buying an app unless I know it will definitely do what I want it to do. Please help!

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).

I can't get voice memos off itunes iPhone 4

iTunes 10, Iphone 4. I have deleted the voice memos from the Library>music but they are still there under Devices>iPhone>Music. They are also not on my iPhone when I launch the Memos app. I have tried checking and unchecking the "include voice memos" and have sync'd after checking and unchecking. I am out of ideas and have not found any help googling. Anyone else run into this problem?

I'm having this issue as well.
I have a number of voice memos that follow my iPhone back ups every single time i upgrade my phone.
I have about 10 voice memos dating back to 2010 that are not visible on my phone via the voice memos or music app, but in iTunes > Devices > Music OR iTunes > Devices > Voice Memos, i can see and listen to them.
I don't have any way of deleting them either, as the delete option via "Edit" is greyed out and the "del" key doesn't do anything either, and as i mentioned above, the voice memos are not visible inside of the Voice Memos app either.
Currently on an iPhone 5 but these voice memos have existed since purchasing my iPhone 4 in 2010.
Invariably someone will always suggest "why don't you wipe your phone and start fresh?". This isn't a solution to the problem nor should it be considered. I'm not about to lose my contacts, messages, save games, and all of my other personally generated data just to delete 10 voice memos which SHOULD be easily removed via iTunes.

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
