Voice memos do not delete (1 hr of recordings)!

Where I find these "undeleted" voice memos.  When I connect iPhone, itunes opens and on the top right I click iPhone. There are 10 tabs in total (Summary - Info - Apps - Tones - Music - Movies - TV Shows - Books - Photos - On This iPhone). I click On This iPhone.  On the far left side, it lists from top to bottom Music - Movies - Tones - All of my playlists.  The last one lists Voice Memo.  I click on Voice Memo.  I find 10 messages from June and July 2012, which I have deleted off of my iphone AND itunes.  I want to delete these 10 voice memos.  They are NOT on iPhone or iTunes.  I tried searching through computer, but nothing is found. 
So why not delete them now? I physically can't.  I right click on the voice memo and there is no option to Copy, Paste, DELETE file.  It only gives the option of playing the music.  It is easier to see what I am saying so I am attaching a snapshot.  Notice that the voice memos are on my iphone, but not in itunes.  I looked all over itunes and there is not one voice memo.  Also, under the Music tab, include voice memos is not checked.

try this one.

  • Voice memos do not delete from iPhone...

    How do I delete the voice memos that are stored on my iPhone 4, and are no longer on my MacBook Pro?
    My voice memos folder on my MacBook Pro was over 4 Gb, so I copied its contents to an external hard drive. I left the folder and deleted the voice memos from it. I then synchronized with my iPhone 4, with the hopes that those voice memos would delete from the phone. Unfortunately, they did not.  iTunes 11 only shows 4 voice memos, and the iPhone has all of them.
    If I control + click on any of the voice memos on my iPhone while looking at them in iTunes, those memos will still play. iTunes 11 does not show an option to delete these voice memos via option + click.
    I am running Mac OS 10.9.1, and IOS 7. Thank you for your advice.

    Nope, won't do it.  If I gently swipe right to left, it jumps to other songs randomly.  It has stopped playing the song as it did before I rebooted the phone.
    I'm familiar with the swipe process, as I can do it successfully with texts, reminders, and so forth.
    Now as I look through my artists, I see perhaps 10% of them are dupes, and none will delete.  And in all cases one of the songs will have an I-Cloud icon, while the other does not.
    Please explain to me why any of my 300 songs in I-Phone (out of 1900 in I-Tunes) should be coming down from the Cloud?  All of them were uploaded from I-Tunes; none were purchased from the I-Phone.
    Thanks, Jim!

  • 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 . . . . .

  • Some Voice Memos do not sync, Voice Memos tab under iPhone blank

    I have all my iPhone music and videos manually managed, but somehow the voice memos got synced to my iTunes automatically each time I click Sync iPhone under the album "Voice Memos" and artist name "&MyPhoneName" which is fine by me. Is that normal? How to turn it on or off?
    Then I notice that some of the voice memos do not sync, and the Voice Memo tab under iPhone is blank. All the voice memos are still in my iPhone. How does that happen?

    In the music part of your iphone in itunes, uncheck the box for syncing voice memos. Then apply changes. Check that it is all gone on your iphone. Go back to itunes and check the box for voice memos and sync. Itunes would copy the voice memos back to your iphone in the process.
    that worked for me. +Don't forget to update to ios 6 latest, as apple fixed (at least improved) the bug causing wrongly sync music/voice memos not appearing.

  • Voice Memos will not play through Home Sharing on other devices.

    I have synced my voice memos to my Apple library on my Mac Mini and can listen to them on that device with no problem. However, when I use my iPad or MacBook or Air to play the memos using my Home Sharing the voice memos will not play on the device. Sometimes a random song will start instead of the voice memo. I can play videos and music through Home Sharing with no problems, it seems to be only the voice memos that won't stream to the connected devices. Any help would be great (using Yosemite on devices).

    I'm running 4.3.3 on mine and just played Joe Ely's latest album on my 1st generation Zeppelin. I do get the message about it not being compatible and possible noise but I dismiss that and play the music.
    You may need to reset your Zeppelin (disconnect it from power, wait 2 minutes, plug it back in), Reset you iPhone (hold down the sleep and home buttons, ignore the red Off slider, wait for the Apple logo, let go of the buttones) or do both.
    You may also need to update the firmware on your Zeppelin if you have not done so before now.

  • Voice memos are not transferred to my Mac

    I am trying to transfer some voice memos from my iPhone to my Macbook. I select 'include voice memos' in iTunes under the Music tab. But all what is doing is to transfer voice memos from my Mac to my iPhone, not vice versa. After syncing when I check the voice memos in the side bar of the iTunes I do not see my iPhone's voice memos. Any help is greatly appreciated.

    I'm having the same problem. The voice memos do not transfer to my G5. Some people get a Voice Memo folder in iTunes but I don't. On the smaller sized memos I have been e-mailing them to myself and then they show up int iTunes. Once they get into iTunes I found them in a folder called Unknown Artist.
    It would be really helpful if some one could fix this problem with the transfer. I have recorded my 99 year grandmother using this but because they are too long and the transfer doesn't work, I can't get them off my iPhone.

  • Voice memos are not sychronizing

    Anybody know why and what to do ?

  • Why doesn't deleting Voice Memos in iTunes delete them on my iPod Touch

    hi. i synch my ipod touch with itunes and all my newly recorded voice memos come to my library in the voice memo playlist. according to the ipod touch manual i go and delete the unnecessary voice memos in my library and typically they are deleted from the voice memo playlist. when i synch my ipod i expect the deleted voice memos are also deleted from my ipod touch but it doesn't. this is very annoying for me because i am visually impaired and deleting and managing voice memos in my library and synching them with my ipod is much much easier for me rather than deleting them using the device. any idea?
    thanks

    The Users Guide says:
    "However, if you delete a voice memo from
    iTunes, it is deleted from iPod touch the next time you sync with iTunes. "
    - Are you saying the Voice Memos are still on the iPod after you sync?
    If yest see if resetting the iPod will correct the problem.  Nothing will be lost.
    Reset iPod touch:  Press and hold the On/Off Sleep/Wake button and the Home
    button at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Next would be to restore from backup followed by restoring to factory defaults/new iPod.

  • Voice Memo will not export into iTunes

    I am currently using an iPhone 3GS and I have a 2008 MacBook running Lion with the latest version of iTunes 10.4.1. For some reason, I cannot get voice memos to import into iTunes. I don't know if length of memos has anything to do with this or not, but it hasn't been an issue in the past. In iTunes, I choose to manually import my digital media since the storage capacity of my current iPhone is relatively small.
    I work as a vocational high school counselor. I like to record meetings with students so that the have an audio record of the things that we cover for college prep. The meetings can run fairly long, which is standard, I'm hoping that the length isn't an issue. Thanks in advance for any help.

    Do you see a Voice Memos playlist in iTunes?
    Check out page 162 of the iPhone User Guide.
    iTunes syncs voice memos to your iTunes library when you connect iPhone to your computer. This lets you listen to voice memos on your computer and provides a backup if you delete them from iPhone.
    Voice memos are synced to the Voice Memos playlist. iTunes creates the playlist if it doesn’t exist. When you sync voice memos to iTunes, they remain in the Voice Memos app until you delete them. If you delete a voice memo on iPhone, it isn’t deleted from the Voice Memos playlist in iTunes. However, if you delete a voice memo from iTunes, it is deleted from iPhone the next time you sync with iTunes.
    You can sync the iTunes Voice Memos playlist to the iPod app on iPhone using the Music pane in iTunes.
    Sync the Voice Memos playlist to iPhone:
    Connect iPhone to your computer.
    In iTunes, select iPhone in the Devices list.
    Select Music at the top of the screen.
    Select the “Include voice memos” checkbox and click Apply.

  • Voice Memos - does not play or sync to iTunes

  • 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.

  • 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.

  • 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....
