Is it possible to remove voice memos

Why would I ever want voice memos on my iPod touch? I would like to remove it from my iPod Touch and free up some space. Can this be done?

Maybe for recording voice memos using a microphone? That's what its for...

No. You can't remove built-in apps. Even if you could remove it, it might only free up a few hundred kilobytes. Not even enough for an extra MP3

I have tried everything and now I dont have one song in my Iphone since it doesnt want to sync music because I get this error...
by the way I have tried this

and I have tried restoring the iphone...

I translated..
El problema -> El itunes me dijo que habían como 12 canciones que tenían mejor calidad. yo decidí intercambiar las canciones que tienen mejor fidelidad en itunes.
Itunes me pregunto si quería que ponga las canciones que iva a remplazar en “desk top” a lo cual yo respondí que si. El itunes hizo algo.. no puso las canciones viejas en el desk top pero cuando fui a sincronizar recibí el error 13019.
La solución para los usuarios de Windows.. busca todas las canciones *.m4a que se han modificado en tu compu durante el día del incidente.. toma nota de los nombres de las canciones.
En itunes busca estas canciones y deselecciona las canciones.. (con suerte veras que las canciones están seleccionadas dos veces.. deselecciona todas las canciones que fueron modificadas en ese día. Al final asegurase que tienes seleccionado la opción de solo sincronizar las canciones que están seleccionadas en tu lista.) y trata de sincronizar con itunes..

How do you remove voice memos from the iPod after downloading it to iTunes?

first of all, which model of voice recorder is best for the 5G video 30 gb iPod? I have heard of Griffin iTalk and Belkin Universal Microphone Adapter, but i'm leaning towards the iTalk b'c it looks cheaper on Amazon and eBay. does anyone suggest anything along those lines?
and also, after recording voice memos (like class lectures and such) onto the iPod and downloading them to iTunes, how do i remove them from the iPod? do i have to make them a different program file (like windows media player, and not iTunes)?

Hi King Arthur 2000,
Voice memos can be shared back to a computer in a number of different ways, described in this article -

Update to IOS 6 and Voice Memos are now gone.

My daughter has an old iPhone 3GS without a phone plan that she uses as an iPod. Tonight, she updated it to IOS 6 without telling me, which means it wasn't backed up prior to the update. Now, all her Voice Memos are gone, and she hasn't synced it with iTunes since last summer - assuming that the Voice Memos were going to iCloud.
A quick Google search tells me that Voice Memos aren't backed up to iCloud. Is it possible that these Voice Memos exist somewhere on the phone that we can recover?
If not, she has learned a hard lesson about doing major updates like this. I haven't updated my phone yet because I want to be sure everything is backed up first.
Thanks,
Marie

I am having the same issue. Updated to ios6 via the phone (iphone 4) and now all of my voice memos are missing. I have the majority backed up somewhat recently to itunes, but I'm baffled as to why all of them would go away on the phone after the update?

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.

any help would make me happy. As it stands now from looking on the web it can't be deleted but making sure before i return this ipod touch. I wan't a clean item the way I wan't it and not how they want it. Like I do not need Itunes and App Store on this ipod because I use my computer only to shop, So many things i like out of the ipod and I am sure lots more people also would like a cleaner ipod/phone or what ever.
from looking at what I never use I see a total of 14 app's I not want taking up space and my screen.
yup with the 5.0 came another stupid icon i not like. ( Newsstand )

yes i moved them into a folder, but I not want them at all on my screen. Guess I return this and pick up a

less app's on that then ipod touch. thank you for the responce.

IPhone 5S Voice Memos

Hi everyone,
I have a problem with the voice memos.
I am using an iPhone 5S -> iOS7, back up from iPhone 4S (the voice memos were recorded in iPhone 4S).
Previously, my iPhone 4S had the same problem too.
The voice memos can't be found in the iPhone VoiceMemo app, but it can be seen from iTunes > On this iPhone > Voice Memos playlist.
The memos are greyed out in iTunes, but can be played.
Also, the checkbox in iTunes > Music > Include Voice Memos is unchecked.
Someone please teach me how to remove all the voice memos in my iPhone 5S and also from the iTunes.
Thanks.

and also why do my voice memos show up in my music - only in itunes not on iphone

IPhone 5s voice memo

I have to say that i am getting really tired of upgrading and spending money to have things go wrong with apple !!!!
It seems like there is always something going wrong.
I always sync my iphone,
but today i realized that i did not sync for a while,so i had a bunch of new recordings in voice memo.
After syncing all the new and old voice memos were on my macbook pro :-)
BUT removed from my iphone ???
am i crazy?
now some of you may say.well you still have em on your computer,and yes that is true,
however i am a songwriter and constantly work on these ideas throughout my day or when i choose.
This is why i have spent thousands of dollars on all of my equipment.
I cant find any help on the web :-(
I did not do anything different,all i did was plug in my phone like i always do and it syncs.
Any ideas would be a great help.
D

Try syncing it back up and make sure the memos are included in the sync.

Voice Memos will not sync debacle

This is an open thread many times over yet I see no orthodox solution. Apple, I address this to you. I have hundreds of voice memos on my iPhone 5s. I have over 900 of them relatively safely transferred to my Macbook Pro. But there are still sporadic unsynched/un-backed-up Voice Memo recordings that have not made the journey from my iPhone. They are stuck there. They are taking up all the space. I need them on my computer and they will not transfer. iTunes refuses. Computer says no.
Include Voice Memos is selected.
What do I do, Apple? What is this strange bug? How does one squash it? Come now, mighty Apple and work your sleek magic... tell me what to do. There is a direction I have neglected to wave my eyes in, or drag my thumb across the surface of some plane... you have stumped my intuition and my logic and my problem solving and I want to throw iTunes into a blender on a star to make the cake of flaming misery, I am so despondent.
This is the meal you'd have me serve my kith and kin.
Where's the big button that makes things work, Apple? Where's that special idiot-proof thing that stops things being dumb?
Please. I beg of you. Mercy, Apple. Have mercy. I need my freaking voice memos, why is iTunes being arbitrary in its recognition of those I would want transported from my phone to my computer?
And sorting them is another matter - please don't tell me I have to wade into my archives and edit tiny portions of these things, rename the files - one by one, to have the program recognise them as something new that it might drag them through the cable to the safe harbour of my laptop and possibly some external drive along the way... Two Apple products joined in holy technonomy by a freaking thunderbolt-usb... whatever the **** it's called cable - I mean for goodness sake - can I not simply migrate the whole freaking bunch of them to a folder? Why cause such widespread suffering and confusion?
Help me Apple. Someone freaking help me. Help us all. Save us from losing our minds to the dementia of iTunes.

When you record a VM, does the VUY meter show the level?
What happens when you try to play the VM? Does it appear to play but with no sound?
Have yu tried the standard fixes:
- Reset. Nothing is lost
Reset iPod touch: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Restore from backup
- Restore to factory defaults/new iPod?

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.

My voice memos duplicate every iTunes sync and now takes up 3GB of my backup size and also from 'other', how do I delete them?

It seems since I got my iPhone 5, my voice memos get duplicated every time it syncs with iTunes. There was only a few memos but a couple of them were rather large. I have found this out by looking at my iTunes backup and find them in /media/recordings. I have stopped them from duplicating by de-selecting them from iTunes, but now how can I delete these items from my phone to free up the space? The best way I could think of is somehow remove them from my backup, then restore. I use iCloud normally for backup so I am almost out of space.
I am using OS 10.8.2 with iTunes 11 and iOS 6.0.1

Update: iExplorer does support deleting voice memos. Received helpful product support email detailing how, even before I registered the product.
while you can delete voice memos where the actual files are stored in Media/Recordings (which is where you should see those missing voice memos), iExplorer 3 isn’t designed to delete them from your device since deleting them iniExplorer 3 won’t update the voice memo database on the device
It's still quite slow and crashes if you try to delete the entire list (I do 10 at a time now), but it works to delete memos that are not refered to any more within the Voice Memos app.
Still doesn't solve the Apple iTunes problem of duplicating SW, which appears to still be happening on a small scale, but I am recovering the Other data back to Free slowly.

Transfer voice memos from iPhone 5 to mac iTunes without replacing all music on iPhone

I have some new voice memos on my iPhone 5 as well as selected music from my iTunes.
I want to transfer the new voice memos to iTunes on my mac but it appears that it will since my itunes library to my phone.
The iPhone is connected to the mac. i am in iTunes and I go to the Device listed as iPhone and click on music.
When I click on the box that says Sync Music, I get a message that says
Are you sure you want to remove existing music, movies etc from this iPhone and sun with intones library...
I click cancel instead of remove and sync. In the sync music window in light grey I can see tha Selected playlists, artist and albums and genres is selected and include voice memos is checked.
On summary I have Manually Manage Music and Videos checked.
I just got the phone and i see on p 110 of the manual how to move recordings to your computer and it isn't doing what I want.
I would like to move the voicemails to the computer without syncing the library and I would like to manually move some songs from iphone to iTunes on the mac.
I also don't know if under Summary if I should check Sync only checked songs and videos
Mac mini 10.5.8
itunes 11.1.5
7.1.1 iphone 5
Thanks for any help.

I think you need to find a third-party tool to copy voice memos from iPhone to Mac because iTunes can't do it. And the only option Apple offers is to backup your iPhone, either to iTunes or iCloud. However, by doing this, voice memos are packed into the backup file package. You can't view them until restore your iPhone with the backup file.

How can I get my voice memos off of my iPhone?

I have a new iPhone and took some pictures and recorded a few voice memos. I would like to save these before I restore my iPhone to the back up I have on my computer. I was able to import the photos into iPhoto, but I am not sure how to import the voice memos. Normally, I would see them in iTunes under the Voice Memos playlist, but they are not there. When I click on the iPhone in iTunes it gives me a choice of restoring from back up or setting up as a new iPhone. I am worried that either of choices would get rid of the two voice memos I have on my iPhone. Any advice?

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.

VOICE MEMOS and Wrong Time Stamps in Itunes

I've noticed that my voice memos in the new iTunes 11.1.3 (8) have incorrect time stamps all over them now. This is a real problem for me, since I need the dates that the messages were recorded. I just tested this out by recording a new one today (2/11/14) on my new Iphone 5s. It showed up dated 8/13/12 2:13pm. My phone has the correct date on it, so what gives?
Any solutions out there?
Not to mention the fact that there are NUMEROUS DUPLICATES of previous memos that have become weird artifacts in my iTunes library each time I've backed up my materials. AND the new iTunes setup makes it incredibly hard to *actually remove data* from my system. I am concerned my private material is no longer private, but being archived elsewhere for meta-data purposes.
C'mon, Apple. You're really slipping.

I see all timezones, have you tried setting the time/date manually? I'd do than, then pop an email to support.
