Recording on iPod Touch

This question may or may not belong on this particular forum.  If not, I would appreciate being directed to the appropriate forum.  I am interested in the iPod Touch's recording ability. I am a writer.  A lot of ideas and phrasing for works in progress come to me when I am running errands or doing something else that precludes holding the device in my hand.  I also need a way to get this information to my MacBook Pro and translate it to text.  Is this possible with the iPod Touch? Are there better solutions addressed elsewhere.
From my research, I have found lots of good recording devices that do all of the above for PCs, but if they do it for Macs, they only support long-replaced OS X.x.x. I am in a quandry.

- I am not aware of any apps that star recording automatically.
- I do not know if Voice memo has a length/time limit.  The paid Voxie Pro Recrder has unlimited length and has a transcription service available.
- There is the Dragon Dictation app that coverts speach to text.  Ir says you can emal the transcription.  It requires an internet connection since the transcription is done in the cloud, not on the iPod.

  • What size is a video file recorded with ipod touch 4g

    just would like to know about what size would a one minute video recorded with the touch be, the same for a picture taken with it.  so i have an idea of which size ipod i should get.  of course, i'd like the 64gb, but right now i have a 32gb 1st gen touch loaded with 650 songs, 10 movies, photos and apps. it still has 18gb available.

    Thanks, it would be safe to guess that a picture wouldn't be more than 3 MB.  So, I would think that for what I'll be using an iPod, another 32gb should be enough as long as I download the files to a computer periodically.

  • Audio line in while recording with ipod touch

    Looking at buying a 5th Gen touch to record local basketball games.  Need the ability to record the audio live broadcast into my live video of the game so I am wondering if I can use the video camera of the touch and record a seperate audio track with the video being recorded with a line in option.  I have used a sd camcorder with a line in capability playing the local radio station audio as I record but dont know it this can be done with a ipod touch.  I could use the camera app or imovie app to record but not sure if separate audio track is possible with them or will it just record from the mic of the ipod touch?

    You can connect a mic to the iPod via the headphone jack and that mic will be used by the video app you use for the video camera on the iPod. I do not remember if the built-in mic gets cut off when yo do that so you may have to cover the mic hole on the iPod.

  • Recording time ipod touch 4G

    hi, I use my iPod touch 4G 64GB to record, but when it records up to 49min, it saids that I dont have enough memory to continue...Don't know why becuase I got like 40GB free and the battery still has 40%.
    Does anyone know how to maximize the recording time?

    Did you already try to reset the ipod by holding the sleep and the home button for about 10sec, until the Apple logo comes back again? You will not lose data by resetting but it can cure some glitches.
    If this does not help, set it up as new device, explained here:

  • Sound recording on ipod touch?

    Are there any possible way(s) to record sound on ipod touch 2G?

    You will need a suitable microphone and an application that can record. If you use "record" as search criteria in iTunes, that brings up several possibilities.

    Hi, I have heard that you can record your Ipod Screen by Itunes, but my question is how? I hope you reply quickly!

    You can make a static photo of the screen.  However, I know of no Apple-authorized way to record video of the Pod's screen.

  • How can I view ipod touch HD video with the same quality on a different device such as my computer?

    Video recorded on Ipod touch 4G appears "HD" as advertised when viewed on the Ipod.  Why does it not have anywhere near the same quality when viewed on a computer?

    How are you judging the quality on another device?  HD is defined by the number of pixels

  • How can I use my ipod touch 2G as a voice recorder?

    I'd like to use my old ipod touch as a voice recorder. It's an ipod touch 2G (8 gig) using iOS 2.2.1. I tried updating the iOS but an unknown error (-1) occurred. I'm using iTunes 11.3 on a MacBook Pro 10.7.5. Any ideas?

    Error (-1)
    Try on another computer
    Also see:
    iOS: If you can't back up or restore from a backup in iTunes
    Then see:
    -1 error
    -1 error too
    If still problem  that means a hardware problem. In that case make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store.

    If you get it to work I then the 2G iPod has a built-in Voice Memos app but you will need to purchase an microphone since the 1G-3G iPods did not have built-in mics. The mic plugs into the headphone jack.

    How can I use my iPod Touch as a voice recorder for long recordings, like 45 minutes? Is ther an app for that?
    I believe I have a Gen 4, but there are no identifying marks on or in it.

    We are evaluating the use of iPod touch devices to record best practice videos on our manufacturing floor and to post to an internal Moodle web site. How can you upload a video from the iPod touch to a site other than YouTube? The Moodle upload interface is expecting a file selection dialog box like windows or OSX. I do not want to have to go through an intermediary step of messing with a pc.
    Thanks!

    It should be around 7 and a half gigs. In iTunes, across the bottom there should be a bar that show how much storage is being used and by what. (music, movies, apps, etc.) To make music take up less room, you can check the box to make it convert the music to 128kbps AAC. This lowers the quality, but with most earbuds and speakers, you can't even tell the difference.
    The iPod touch has parental controls built in. You'll find them in Settings. I think they only work for enabling/disabling Safari, Mail, YouTube, and App Store. Here's an app that does more: http://www.mobicip.com/online_safety/ipod_touch

  • I want to record a concert with my iPod touch

    Hi!
    I've got one iPod touch 4G with 8GB and I'm going to a concert on December and I wanted to record the audio of it with some quality, at least medium quality.
    Do you know any application that I can use for it? Or should I record it with an other device?

    You might want to check here, to start off:
    http://forums.ilounge.com/misc-gear/241804-recording-concerts.html
    There's even an app, though you'd best advised to upgrade your mike:
    http://itunes.apple.com/us/app/concert-recorder-cd-quality/id338045354?mt=8
    So much depends on your criteria for a tolerable recording; I don't know what "medium" quality is. Realize, however, that the best live recordings are taken off the sound board, or were specifically mixed for a live concert. Otherwise, there's going to be a problematic level of ambient noise.
    You might find it more instructive to record live gigs at clubs as a test before you do the final recording in December.

  • I'm looking for a display recorder app for my iPod touch, is there one available on the App Store?

    Hi,
    I've been wanting to make videos and tutorials on how to use some of Apple's apps, and also some games on my iPod touch (5th gen), and I've seen loads of videos taken from iOS within an app. I don't want to jailbreak my iPod, so that means that the display recorder by Cydia is off the list. Are there any screen recorders for iPod that have unlimited filming, and will let me access filmed videos so I can post them to YouTube?
    Thanks!

    Use Reflector:
    http://www.airsquirrels.com/reflector/
    to display the iPod on your computer's screen. You can then use screen capture software to make a recording of your actions. No need to jailbreak.
    Regards.
