IPhone 5: Voice Memos not working in iOS 6.1.4

I updated my iPhone 5 and suddenly my voice memos app doesn't work. When I click on it, it loads the microphone icon then closes and goes back to the main screen.  Can anyone help on this issue?

For iphon 5 after the last update, to listen to your recored voice memos, you have to tab the speaker symbol on the upper right corner of the file page. You can also use the bluetooth or headphone to listen to your recordings.

  • IPhone 4 Voice Memos not working/saving

    Hi there,
    I'm having trouble with my voice memos too. Up until yesterday they were working fine and now, even though the record button works, the stop button does not and I can only pause them. Worse again is that the button to go into the menu to view all voice memos is not working so I can't play them from my iPhone and nothing new is saving to my iTunes. Please help!

    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.

  • IPhone 2G voice mic not working

    Has anyone come across iPhone 2G voice mic not working (not being heard by the other person) but works fine on speaker phone and bluetooth headset. It has been working fine so far and suddenly developed this problem! Any help is highly appreciated….

    I had that problem with my iPhone 3G after about 5 days.
    I just had Apple take a look at it.
    They cleaned it out, called it and stuff.
    Didn't work.
    Since I didn't drop it in water and it was not my fault in any way, they gave me a brand new one.

    If you're expecting Apple to respond on this forum, you will have a long wait. This is a user-to-user technical support forum that is only hosted by Apple. This was made clear when you signed up.

    Well, what happens when you try to use it. That would help in the troubleshooting. Have you contacted your cellular carrier? Voicemail is a carrier function.

  • Voice memo not working

    Recently the Voice Memo function on my iPhone is not working. When I click on it I get the 'microphone' icon, but when I switch on it collapsed back to main screen. The guy at Genius Bar suggested that I should 'restore iphone' my iPhone settings.
    When I got to do this I get a message saying "Are you sure you want to restore the iPhone to its factory settings? All of your media and other data will be erased." This sounds v scary, not sure of consequences and not sure what to do. Can anyone help?

    Hello John,
    Thanks for the question, and welcome to Apple Support Communities.
    I concur with my colleague at the Apple Store, we may need to restore your device. Furthermore, we have great utilities in place to avoid data loss while restoring: backing up with iTunes and/or iCloud. I have included information about how to do so, along with a step-by-step guide on restoring your iPhone:

  • Iphone 4s voice memos not syncing to itunes?

    hi all,
    i have an iphone 4s, purchased in october 2011. all the software is up to date, as is the software on my macbook pro (running 10.5.8). the itunes version i use is 10.5.3.
    i used the voice memos function for the first time recently, have two recordings of workshops, one is 45 mins long, the other about 1 hour 15 mins long. when i came home, i connected my iphone to the macbook, launched itunes, checked the box under the music tab that said "include voice memos" and hit sync. when done syncing, i saw that under all the playlists was a section for voice memos, but nothing in it. my phone has the two voice memos, but the itunes, after syncing everything, does not. i repeat, this is despite having checked the "include voice memos" box.
    has anyone faced this issue before? is there any way for me to transfer these memos to my computer? any way to get the syncing to work?
    any help would be greatly appreciated.
    hope the new year is treating everyone well so far. cheers!...r

    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.

  • IPhone (4) Voice Memos not Syncing to New iTunes 10.0

    I'm currently on an iPhone 4 (4.0.1 firmware) and I've been experiencing issues getting my voice memos to sync to my iTunes library.
    The last time this worked was August 27, 2010 which added 3 voice memos to my iTunes library successfully. Since then, I have not yet updated my firmware but have installed the new iTunes 10.0. I have 8 new voice memo recordings on my phone since the last successful sync, and I've tried syncing my phone four times today, Sept. 4, (restarting iTunes and my iPhone) with no luck. I tried recording a new voice memo to see if iTunes 10 would recognize any memos recorded after the installation but that failed as well.
    Is anyone else experiencing this problem?

  • Voice Memos ceased working after iOS 6.0.2 upgrade

    Voice Memos launches then crashes in one second on my iPhone 5, ios 6.0.2.  This began after the latest ios upgrade for iPhone 5.
    I have done a hard reset; a restore iPhone and the standard Voice Memos does not function anymore.
    Does anyone have a solution?  There is no other way to uninstall and reinstall the one single app that I am aware of.
    Thanks!

    You do realize voicemail is a carrier feature.  What have you done to fix this, have you gone in and at least try to change the greeting?

  • Iphone 6 voice recognition not working

    I have an iphone 6 and have had it since October 2014.  For about a month now, the voice recognition option does not work.  I like to use it rather than texting, and emails when I'm on the go and it's frustrating that I can't figure out what's wrong.  I have looked through other threads to try and figure out what else I might do.  So far I've:
    rebooted (hard reset)
    double checked that all my settings are correct re Siri and voice recognition
    checked that it is not a problem with earphones v. no earphones.  Doesn't appear to make any difference
    Siri doesn't work either
    Checked the microphone to make sure it's not blocked or something
    I can use the phone feature just fine. 
    It just seems to be the voice recognition feature that doesn't want to cooperate.  If you have any ideas please let me know!
    I'm taking it to the Apple Store next week since I have run out of my own ideas... Thanks!

    Hi bishibarnabee,
    I'm sorry to hear you are having these issues with your iPhone. If you continue to have issues with Voice Control and/or Siri, you may find the troubleshooting outlined in the following articles helpful, in addition to taking it in to the Apple Store if necessary:

  • IPhone 4s Voice Memo quit working.

    This is the voice memo that came installed on the phone, this is NOT out of the app store. 
    I was using this app daily, and now it simply doesn't work.  I can't record, and I can't get to my old voice memos!
    Has anyone else encountered this?  Suggestions?  I did turn my phone off & on, and then it worked, but this is a recurring problem. 

    I use voice to text all the time.  It worked yesterday but not today.  I am not a big Siri user but tried it today as well. It acts as if it is listening but does not respond.  I have also tried using my Apple headphones with microphone but that does not work either.
