Voice memos in itunes

My voice memos in itunes are grayed out and won't let me play them. There is also a syn icon that appears next to the number of the memo. I tried syncing my phone but it doesn't do anything and the voice memos were deleted from my phone as well after I synced the first time. I really need to fix this ASAP! Please help!!

No. After waiting over two hours on the phone with apple support, they told me the voice memos were somehow currupt and there's no way to get them back.

  • HT1766 4 voice memos in iTunes backup from iPhone had ! marks and would not play so I deleted them and although they are still on the iPhone, they will not sync back to iTunes from iPhone.

    You may have to try deleting all the music from your phone (by going to Settings>General>Usage>Music, swipping All Music and tapping Delete), then sync it all back on with iTunes in order to fix this.

  • IPhone iOS 5.1.1 will not sync voice memos to iTunes

    My iPhone running iOS 5.1.1 will not sync voice memos to iTunes. I have tried trimming the memos, and changed the label. No go. The "include voice memos" is checked on iTunes sync, but iTunes won't even create a voice memos playlist. Help? These are brand new recordings, and they are too long to email.

    Try Handbrake to convert your movie to an iPhone format.  Then reimport it to iTunes and synch to your phone.

  • Syncing voice memos to iTunes

    Got me an iPod touch, 64GB. Using it a lot for Voice Memos. But even though I've set iTunes to "sync voice memos", and even though I've got my voice memos on iTunes already. every time I plug in the iPod it asks if I want to add the "new voice memos" to iTunes. I don't want to, because I have them on iTunes already - and if I accept, it just doubles them up. Am I missing something obvious in the settings here?
    Thanks
    Tony

    UPDATE - Apparently large files cannot be mailed out.  So far I can verify that a 27 minute memo cannot be mailed.

  • Syncing Voice Memos to iTunes - Workaround

    Not everyone can sync their voice memos to iTunes, and no one really knows why (or cares).  Here is a workaround.
    Part One - Email the Voice Memo to Yourself
    1. Select the voice memos application.
    2. Select the voice memos list (button in lower right hand corner).
    3. Highlight/Select the voice memo to send.
    4. Select the blue Share button (lower left corner).
    5. Select the gray Email button.
    6. Address the email to yourself and select the Send button (upper right hand corner).
    Part Two - Save the Voice Memo to Your Computer
    This part varies for everyone.  I am going to assume you know how to save files from your email to your computer.
    Part Three - Add the Voice Memo to iTunes
    1. Open iTunes.
    2. Select: File / Add File to Library.  Choose the voice memo you downloaded to your computer. Click Open.
    Note: the music file will be saved as an 'Unknown Album / Unknown Artist'.
    3. Right-click on the file, choose Get Info.  Choose the Options tab.
    4. Change the Media Kind to Voice Memo (the Media Kind should automatically add a check mark).  Click OK.
    5. Double-click to re-open the file.
    6. Right-click on the name, choose Get Info.  Choose the Info tab.
    Note: You now have a chance to re-name the file anything you want.
    7. Use the Name field to re-name your memo.
    Part Four - Add a Voice Memo Playlist.
    1. Select: File / New Smart Playlist...
    2. Click on Artist and choose Media Kind from the drop-down list.
    3. Click on Music and choose Voice Memo from the drop-down list. Click OK.
    You can now use Voice Memos and iTunes as promised in the Users Guide.

    UPDATE - Apparently large files cannot be mailed out.  So far I can verify that a 27 minute memo cannot be mailed.

  • Voice memos to Itunes manually?

    I have an iPhone 3G and I can't seem to get my voice memos onto iTunes manually. Does anyone know how to do this? Thanks!

    Yes, you can! You need an app on your Mac called Phone View. Download it, check the "show all files" option(or words to that effect) in prefs, and look under voice memos. Be careful not to delete any iphone system files, but if you follow the instructions you will easily see a section for voice memos. Drag the relevant .mov (this seems to contain the sound data) onto the desktop and then into itunes.
    Quick, wireless, and no sync required. I did this for one voice memo of a conference that got stuck on the phone, i.e., it wouldn't sync in itunes, and it also wouldn't play from with the voice memo app on my phone.
    Hope this helps.

    I want to sync my Voice Memos but iTunes 10.5 will not let me even with the "include voice memos" checkbox selected. As well Ive deselected all the music in itunes so when I sync there will be none on my phone but itunes also ignores this request and puts purchased music back on. I do not have autofill selected. Also wondering where the backup of my iphone 4s is located on my hard disk. Any help greatly appreciated.

  • Problem syncing voice memos to ITunes from IPhone 4?

    Recorded Voice Memos will not sync to Voice Memos in ITunes. After connecting the IPhone, I tried Transferring Purchases, then Backup, but they do not appear in the ITunes library. Have been having this issue since latest update on 25/4/2014. I tried unticking and reticking reference to Voice Memos under Music.
    Your advice would be greatly appreciated

    Hi mallee fowl,
    Welcome to the Apple Support Communities! I understand you are trying to transfer Voice Memos to your iTunes Library. On the Summary pane in the sync settings make sure your Manually manage music and videos in not check marked and when you sync your iPhone a playlist should be created called Voice Memos in iTunes. Please use the following article for reference. 
    iPod: Recording voice memos
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht2396
    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.
    I hope this helps,  
    -Joe

  • How do I sync my voice memos from itunes to my iphone 4?

    I had an iPhone 3GS and I went away from it for a while. Well it was the worst decision and needless to say I am back to the iPhone. I have resynced my phone but I have several voice memos in iTunes that I would really like to get back on my phone but I seem to be havingtrouble with that part. I made a folder and put them all in it. I cheked it for download but they won't go on my phone. Can someone please help.

    just posted this in another question, word for word.
    after you connect your iPhone, click on the 'video' tab at the top and scroll down. you should see sections for 'rented movies', 'tv shows' and 'movies'. select the things you want to sync, hit save, sync, and you should have your movies.

  • 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.

  • How do I email a voice memo from itunes?

    Hello, I want to know how to pull a voice memo from itunes and save it or do whatever I have to do so I can email it with my yahoo.com email account.  Thank you.

    Had the same prob myself.....didnt get a lot of help here so trial & error did the trick.
    Had voice memos but wanted to keep some.
    Clicked on the voice memo playlist link & that showed me the list in itunes
    Put cursor onto the memo i wanted to be rid of & right click.
    Looked down the options available.
    Spotted delete, whacked that & that memo was gone.
    Did that to all the ones i didnt want.
    Dont know if it will work on the voice memo bit in the playlist index.
    Also altered the sync settings to stop the phone reloading to the PC.
    PS
    Just flicked to itunes playlist index.
    Right click on voice memo & delete was an option if you want to bin all the voice memos.
    Hope this helps you out.

  • Voice memos on iTunes

    Hello,
    I have an iphone 4 and I took a rather important voice memo of an interview, but its too long to send via email. In itunes I cant see it because I manage my music manually. How do I get the voice memo off my phone? If I turn sync on will I lose the voice memo?! (the music isnt important)
    Thanks for any help,
    Neil

    This doesn't work.

     If you are syncing music and video, not manually managing music and video - you have Sync Music selected under the Music tab for your iPhone sync preferences with iTunes, there should be an option under the Music tab for your iPhone sync preferences with iTunes for syncing Voice Memos. Select it followed by selecting Apply and a sync. An iTunes playlist will be created by iTunes automatically where all voice memos on your iPhone will be copied to and available for listening with iTunes on your computer.
    I got a Voice Memos playlist that is empty with thirty voice memos still on the iPhone. Some of the voice memos are short, some are two hours long. None of them got transfered. How do I get them onto my Mac???
