ITunes not importing Voice Memos from iPhone into library.

I have the settings on my iPhone to sync voice memos, yet when I sync with my iMac, it doesn't import the voice memos that I have in my voice memos list into my iTunes library for playing back outside of the Voice Memos app. What's wrong, and how do I fix it?

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 you iPhone and you are good to go.

  • I can not import my photos from iphone into iPhoto

    hi,
    I've amassed around 18Gbs of photos and videos on my iphone and have never been able to import them!
    In the old iphoto it would start importing then stop (deleting photos imported so far) since upgrading to Lion I can't even see the iphone appear in iphoto.
    BTW I'm really trying to back the phone up so I can more to the iphone 5  - but that's failed (well I gave up after 6 hours!) so I thought I would import photos and speed up the backup process..
    Why is this so hard!
    Any tips?
    J

    Some suggestions:
    Restrart the Phone, if that fails reset the phone.
    Try use Image Capture (in your Applications Folder)

  • 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.

  • Export Voice Memos from iPhone 4 to Mac/itunes

    I'm trying to get Voice Memos from my iPhone 4 onto my computer so I can then subsequently put them on my iPhone 6. They didn't sync properly the first time I tried.
    The apple support told me that I would have to use third party software. Anyone know of any free programs? (TunesGo only allows 20 songs before you have to pay).
    THanks!

  • How do you put Voice Memos from iPhone to computer?

    I've had a very long chat with Apple Support and they don't seem to know the answer.
    My voice memos are important and are above 30MB so emailing isn't an option.
    I first synced my memos to my iTunes as usual (music doesn't sync with the library, bear in mind) and expected all my memos to appear, however they didn't. They appeared in the "on my device section" but I couldn't play them as the exclamation point appeared.
    Under Apple's instruction I updated to the new iTunes, and now the previous memos don't even appear in the "on my device" section. They said it's likely to do with ios 8. The memos I want were created in ios 8. And now they've randomly been duplicated on my phone so I have two of each?
    So after this iTunes update, I made a new memo, which again was duplicated, but now appears in the "on my device" part.
    What do I do to put the memos onto my computer somehow? I really need them!

    The following is pre iOS 8 but may have something that you missed: http://www.macworld.co.uk/how-to/iosapps/transfer-voice-memos-from-iphone-to-com puter-3526349/
    One new thing I learned from it is that Evernote which I use for keeping some text notes in sync among various devices has a voice memo capability. Those would be automatically transferred.

  • Problems syncing voice memos from iphone

    When I am syncing my iphone, even though I have the "sync voice memos" box checked, my computer does not sync voice memos from my iphone.  There is a voice memo playlist in my computer's iTunes but it does not show as a possible playlist to sync with my iphone.  Can you help me?

    Same problem. I just noticed that when I click the triangle next to my mounted iphone in itunes and then select the voice memos playlist (which should give me a window into what is actually on the phone) it does not show any voice memos past a date in June - and I have several dozen memos recorded since then.  They are there when I look at them on the phone itself from within the voice memos app.
    It seems that for some reason itunes just can't tell they are there??

  • Saving voice memos from iphone to mac

    Hi all,
    I've read a couple of threads re synching voice memos from my iphone to my mac.  And i've followed the instructions (i.e. clicking the "include voice memos" under the synch music section in itunes).  Trouble is when the synch runs and i go into itunes library to find the voice memos i cant find them.  I've searched by typing in "voice memo" as well as manually searching through the entire library.  The voice memos are still safely on my iphone, but not in my itunes library.  Any clues?

    You can transfer voice memos from iPhone to Mac by emailing:
    Open the voice memo app and select the recording you want to transfer, then tap on the Share icon in the left corner under the Play button. Now you have the option to send it as a Mail.
    Choose Mail then fill in the relevant details and hit send. This is fine for the occasional memo, but if you have several that you want to do at once - or have long recordings whose files sizes are not inbox friendly - then the best solution is to use iPhone Transfer for Mac.

    I can get my voice memos from my iphone onto itunes on my Mac but when I sync my ipad, it doesn't sync.  So I can only listen on my iphone using the voice memos app, which is very frustrating, since you cannot pause it and restart or gets interrupted when you get a call or on my computer.  I would love to review some lectures I have taped on my ipad.  Any way of doing this

  • How to transfer voice memos from iPhone 4 to mac

    When i connect my iPhone to my mac i don't get  voice memos option under syc music in iTunes, secondly my voice memos are too many and are larger in size so mail and message option doesn't work for me.

  • Exporting voice memos from iphone doesn't retain their names

    Hi,
    I'm using an iphone 4 on Vista running the latest itunes (newest update, the whole firmware, itunes etc just updated right before I decided to post this).
    I'm trying to save voice memo files from my iphone to my computer, but although they save and play back okay, they have been assigned a bunch of numbers (taken from the recording date and time perhaps) instead of keeping the name I gave them on the phone itself. There are far too many of them to drag off one at a time and rename manually.
    So how can I save them all in one go whilst retaining the names I gave them on the iphone?
    I've previously managed this - when I initially got the phone and started saving memos I once dragged and dropped a load of them from my iphone through itunes and they did retain their original names, but after trying numerous times since I cannot see how, although it must be possible?
    Thanks!

  • How to extract large voice memos from iphone

    I need to extract a large (50 minutes) voice memo from an iPhone 4s using iOS 8.1.1 I'm using a MacBook Air 11-early 2014 with OS X Yosemite (10.10.1)

    Assuming you read the section of the link near the end about where to find them, the only other idea I have would be to try a 3rd party utility but there would be an expense. Following is one possibility: http://www.macroplant.com/iexplorer/tutorials/export-voice-memos-from-iphone-to- computer?gclid=CjwKEAiA4_WjBRCNgf7A_KeE9jwSJADtegYd7ZtHP5ToZ5GK8_FsbwEBnpl_dA4VR DeZhQxUGQ4jERoCh5Tw_wcB

    How do I convert my Voice Memo from iPhone 5s to a text file?

    If you have Evernote, you could try quicktate.   http://www.quicktate.com
    I convert voice memos on my Mac using the Dictation feature:
    Open TextEdit on a new document
    Enable  Dictation & Speech enabled the System Preferences.
    Press the fn-key twice
    Play the voice memo on the iPhone and let the  Mac listen to it using the internal microphone with TextEdit open on a new document.
    Press the fn-key twice, to finish Dictation.  You will only see the transcribed text, when Dictation has finished.

  • I want to move voice memos from iPhone to PC (not just sync to itunes)

    Hi,
    I want to move voice memos from my iPhone to Windows desktop. I saw several posts about syncing them to iTunes. Thats not what i want. I want to copy them to my desktop not just sync to iTunes. Unable to copy - paste from iTunes either.

    impossible to do anything simple on iTunes, I managed to wipe all my recorded voice memos when I tried to move my files from iphone to desktop, instead they just "sync" I never got the point with sync, why can't you just export files and import files from desktop, simple as that why make it so complicated
