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....

IPHONE 5s w/IOS7 voice memo app not working - only records, but no option to play, save, edit

IPHONE 5S W/IOS7 - VOICE MEMO APP - CAN ONLY RECORD, CANNOT EDIT, DELETE, SEND, ETC. TOOK TUTORIAL ONLINE AND IT SHOWED ALOT MORE FEATURES THAN I CAN LOCATE. PLS HELP

First turn off all caps it's considered rude and as if your shouting.
try a reset, no data loss. hold down the home/sleep button together until you see the apple logo and then release, then wait until your phone boots back up.
then check voice memo again.

Voice memo app not working

On the iphone 5 when I click on the voice memos app it open and closes straight away. When I have had this issues with other apps I can delete and reinstall them, however this is not possible to do with the voice memo app, does anyone have any ideas how to resolve this as I have installed a paid for voice memo app which is not as good. Thanks

I had another breakthrough a couple of days ago.
In iTunes I changed my radio button selection from "Entire Music Library" to "Selected playlists, artists, albums, and genres" and instead chose to sync only a handful of artists and albums. Since I did this I have had no problem using my voice memo app.
I don't know if there was some sort of conflict in the way old saved notes were syncing back onto it or if there is a problem with the voice app in which it malfulctions and crashes when there is low free space on the iPhone. I went from my usual 1 GB or less of free space to around 9 GB of free space.
Anyways, just thought I'd share what I found.

Voice Memos app not working - IOS 4 upgrade

I upgraded my 32Gig 3GS to IOS4 on Monday and now my Voice Memos app isn't working. I can playback existing recordings but am unable to record new ones. Anyone have a similar experience?

Voice memos app not saving properly

I am using an iphone5 running iOS7.1.1 and performing the following actions will cause Voice Memos app not saving recordings. I have sent a feedback to Apple but is wondering if anyone else is found having similar problems.
1) Run Voice memos app and start recording
2) At lock screen open camera app and take a picture
3) At same lock screen delete the picture taken
4) Lock screen will show RECORDING in progress
5) Open Voice memos app and it will also show RECORDING in progress
6) Save voice memo from app and the duration FROM the point of picture deleted WILL NOT be saved

same here ... iPhone 3gs/32 gigs ram/ios 4.3.1 ...
the app doesn't seem to work any more, and hasn't for some time:
"buttons" are unresponsive, or they appear to respond, but don't perform their function ... erratic behavior ...
very disappointing as this has gone on for some time ...
We appear not to be the only ones ...
Anyone with a solution?
Thanks

Iphone voice memos does not stay open

iphone voice memos does not stay open

Try a reset: Simultaneously hold down the Home and On buttons until the device shuts down. Ignore the off slider if it appears. Once shut down is complete, if it doesn't restart on it own, turn the device back on using the On button. In some cases it also helps to double click the Home button and close all apps BEFORE doing the reset.

Voice Memo does not work on 3g

The voice memo does not work. If I scream in to the mic it finally shows movement on the readout. But, when you play it back all you get is static noise where I screamed. Other wise, any normal voice speck is totally silent.
Actually it works with the iPhone head phones but not the mic in the phone it's self.

Yes, the low level while recording doesn't result in a low or weak "memo". Sounds fine and mails to my email as well . . . But !
I had a phone-message waiting two months, a little song-fragment I called home to leave with the hope that Voice-Memo would eventually save it for me. And it sounded better once mailed that it even did playing out of my cheap little land-line speaker ( I guess mic-placement is everything ! )
But the recording was 2 min 50 seconds and trying to mail it to myself brought up the warning that it was "too big" !! Luckily, the first 27 seconds was unrelated and expendable . . . and being able to trim it did the trick.
*So what's the size limit on a mailable Memo Apple people ?*
( It was 4.1 mb as attached to the mail )
Also, how odd is it that it was still "Sending" within the iPhone, yet already sitting in my iMac's email well before the "airplane whoosh" of sent mail sounded.
Hmm . . . . .

Voice dictation app not working

I downloaded the voice dictation app in my IPad 2 last week. It was working fine for a few days but yesterday when I tried to use it I got a message saying that 'I was not authroized to use this app anymore, and that I should contact my service provider'
When I went to the app store to look for that app, that particular app was no longer in the app store. Instead there was a different voice dictation app which looked similar to the old app but was named differently.
Since the old voice dictation app didn't work anymore I decided to download the new one and get rid of the old one.......so far so good
I don't care about wasting 99 cents on this app, but I was wondering if anyone knew why the old voice dication app that i downloaded first stoped working so quickly and vanished from the app store?
Not complaining, just curious.
Thanks.

That was the best voice dictation app, I used it daily for work. It was more accurate than Dragon, I spend way too much time correcting Dragon. Not so worried abou the ¢99, but I am complaing. Where dod the app go?

IPhone 4 Remote App Not working

Hello,
Sorry for posting another 'not working' thread, but having searched the forum I cannot find my answer.
I am not very technical, but I have iTunes and an iPhone 4.
I have the remote app and the app has worked perfectly up until recently.
I have upgraded iTunes to 10 and also my antivirus.
Now I know alot of these things could be caused by the firewall, but I have allowed iTunes to be let through the firewall and I have switched off the firewall in the past to ensure it was not this.
When I switch on the computer and open iTunes then go to the remote app it works. It is when the iPhone 'sleeps' that the library wont re connect, OR if i have been using iTunes and then try and start the remote that it will not work.
Any ideas at all as it is so frustrating. I am not technically minded, so switching router channels etc and proxy settings/DHCP etc dont really make sense to me.
I have tried rebooting everything including the router, but believe it is something simple as it was working prior to iTunes 10.
I am running a PC on Vista
Thanks
Steve

no I use both ipad2 iphone4 with remote app and have no issues with ios
try removing the setup and start over

IPhone 4 mail App not working properly

My IPhone 4 mail app just continues to spin and check email without getting email or sending.
Had the same problem in October after iOS 6 update took in phone and got a new one under 1 yr warranty.( apple and Verizon techs could not figure)
Again the problem is back. The spiny thing just continues to spin and no email update.
If I reboot the phone the email is pulled down but stops again.
iPhone : 4
iOS : 6.01
Carrier : Verizon wireless
Can not find anything on apple support or anywhere on google
I installed gmail app and all email pulls down perfectly but can not get me AOL email setup
So I know the network is working
Anyone know about this email App problem?
Thx
Bahram

I'm getting this too. It's very slow and apparently thinks "Call Sue Newport" sounds like "Call Halfords" or "Call Halyards" and, most surprisingly "Call First Great Western".
I was wearing my Jawbone Bluetooth headset so it's nothing to do with background noise.
I tried the new "What time is it?" command which works but takes about 10-15 seconds to activate.

Voice Memos is not working properly

This App's been behaving strange...
That "bar" where we supposed to drag foward and rewind in the recorded memo isnt working anymore. So when I want to rewind I cant, I need to stop, and start all over again from the beginning.
And now, It just doesnt record anything!
It shows that it is recording but when I stop to listen, nothing hasnt recorded.
I restarted the phone but it didnt change anything
Does anyone experienced this same problems?

same here ... iPhone 3gs/32 gigs ram/ios 4.3.1 ...

IPhone 4S Camera app not working. Help? iOS 7.1.2

I have an iPhone 4S, and my camera doesn't work. When I launch the app, either it black screens (but shows the GUI still), or it shows the background. But when I want to switch the camera so I can show my face in FaceTime or take a selfie, the app black screens or freezes afterwards. I know this is a software issue, and I am running iOS 7.1.2. Any help? Thanks

Gevey sim is illegal in most countries and to use it you must hack the iPhone,
thereby voiding the warranty and possibility of support from Apple.

HT203040 iPhone 4S Camera app not working since iOS 8.2 update.

Since downloaded iOS 8.2 on my iPhone 4S the camera won't work. It is just black. Sometimes we can scroll between photo, video etc, but most the time the whole thing is locked up. I have tried rebooting the phone. Nothing works.
Please Apple Support Team fix this issue.

My voice memos are not syncing to my itunes library from my iphone 5c

I have tried everything I can think of, everything but the voice notes will sync. I made sure to check the box that says "include voice memos" and also have tried deleting the voice memo playlist from itunes library on computer, and tried syncing again, this did not work either! Help?!

I found the answer, at least it worked for me.
Here ya go:
1) open the Voice Memos app on your iPhone
2) on any memo: click the little blue arrow on the right
3) Click the next arrow in the top most box this will put you in the "Label" screen
4) From the "Label" screen: click the arrow next to "Custom"
5) In the Custom screen: give the memo a name (click Done)
6) Click the left arrow (top left) to go back to your memos.
You'll see that you memo as a name. I changed mine from "4:25 PM" to "Fishcakes".
7) Sync your iPhone and you are good to go.
NOTE: If for some reason this doesn't work, go back into the same "naming" list on your Iphone voice memos app, and try one of the standard labels instead of a custom one. With one that wouldn't sync, I changed it to "Memo" and then synced it again, and then it worked.
