Voice memos to GarageBand

Can voice memos be exported to GarageBand?

In order to use your voice memos in Garageband you must convert them to an MP3 or AAC file in iTunes. Right click on the file you want to use in iTunes and select “convert to AAC” or “convert to MP3”. You will now have two files with the same name, the one which begins playing after the conversion is the file you will want to use. Click and drag that file from iTunes to the desktop. From there you can import it into Garageband just like you would any other file.

  • "voice memos" on ipad3

    I use “voice memos” on my ipod alot so am disappointed it is not included on Ipad3.  The itunes store has some apps but receive mixed reviews. Any recommendations re finding an equivalent app to "voice memos" which comes with the ipod please? I record up to 3 hours at a time, sync to itunes (sometimed edit in garageband) & then add to my music playlists.

    What format are these files encoded in?  You can check by right->clicking on a track, choosing Get Info, and looking under the Summary tab.

  • 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.

  • How do I rename voice memos that were on iPhone 4 and are now on iPhone 5s

    Hi - I've got a hold load of voice memos that were on my iPhone 4 which I did not label at the time.  Now I'm trying to do some housework on my 5s and would like to label said memos but I can't.  Any ideas please?  Many thanks.

    You can email it to yourself by opening the conversation, tap Edit, tap the voice memo, tap Forward, choose your email address from your contact.  You can open this on your computer and the attachment should play in Quicktime.

  • How do I export voice memos from my iPhone 5S to my iTunes?

    I have numerous voice memos that I want to get off my iPhone.  However, I don't want them deleted.  Some of them are of my mom's voice (she recently passed away) so I REALLY don't want to lose those.  I've searched the forum and I've been unable to find anything that will help me.  It's an iPhone 5S.  I have a MacBook Pro running 10.9.2.  My iTunes is 11.1.5.  Any help would be greatly appreciated.

  • How do you [playback voice memos on iphone 5s

    I cannot playback voice memos.When I hit done it just continues recording

    Tapping "Done" should stop the recording.
    Have you tried resetting your iPhone?
    Reset: Press the Home and On/Off buttons at the same time and hold them until the Apple logo appears (about 10-15 seconds).
    No data will be lost.

  • Voice memos in iOS7, on new iphone 5s cuts off recordings

    Hi,
    Voice memos has always been super reliable in previous versions but on a new iphone 5s with ios7 I'm finding it cuts off recordings very unpredictably - sometimes after less than a minute sometimes after a quarter hour or so.
    I've seen other threads where the issue has been described but this has been explicitly on longer recordings or where the recording is finished so wanted to raise this again as an issue on new hardware with recordings of any length where the recording stops by itself.
    The bug is making the app unusable at present which is a shame as it looks like it could be a greatly improved app.
    Any ideas?

    The worse thing about this is that Apple Support does not appear to know about it and steered me in the wrong direction. Today I tried it again and lost another 50 minute recording.
    Apple needs to fix this and let users and tech staff know ASAP.
    This has now cost me 2 hours of client time, plus 3 hours of tech support. The client information is priceless to me. I will  not be able to retrieve the content of those discussions, even if I conduct the meetings again. Too many variables were at play.
    I am beyond disillusioned that this issue is being reported in various threads throughout the fall and has not been addressed, and that phone support is unwaware, so more users will end up with the same terrible losses.
    It is, in my opinion, highly irresponsible and a show of disrespect to customers to permit this to be occuring without warning users or applying fixes.

  • Voice Memos, iPhone 5S, iTunes - wont show my recordings

    Okay so I have 34 Voice memos 3 hours long each, they are present on my phone, but my itunes shows only 14 of them.
    I switched computers, so I did complete backup on new computer, it started spitting out messages that if i sync music then "iPhone will be deleted and replaced with iPhone from new computer" that happened when i clicked that i want to manually manage music. Well, to my luck it did not delete iPhone and replace it with another iPhone, but just deleted my music.
    Then I clicked "On This iPhone, and only saw 14 recordings, my phone still has 34, I got freaked out so I downloaded iFunBox and backed up everything manually, I cannot trust to back up my iPhone now, because I am afraid the iTunes will wipe half of my recordings, what the **** should I do? I havent backed up in a few weeks, not sure if old backup has all recordings

  • IPhone Voice Memos Interrupted By Incoming Calls

    I notice that every time I use my Voice Memos software on the 3G(s), if an call comes in, the Voice Memo stops recording and I won't know it till I look at the phone later. Is there ANY way to stop that for that not to happen and you can have perhaps the calls go directly into voice mail so that the Voice Memo feature doesn't get interrupted? It's useless to me otherwise.
    Thanks for anyone's input!

    The voice recorder application - just like every other iPhone application, native or 3rd party - will shut down when you receive a phone call. The iPhone operates under the assumption that the device is first and foremost a telephone.
    As far as work arounds go, you can always put the phone in airplane mode when you need to use the voice recorder app uninterrupted. This will send all incoming calls directly to voicemail.

  • IPhone Voice Memos Won't Sync

    I have an iPhone 3GS and an iMac operating on OS X 10.6.8. When I sync my iPhone to the iMac, all of my voice memos transfer, except key memos dated before a certain date or 5/4/11. I can't figure it out. I've looked through all my preferences in iTunes and on the iPhone but without any luck. Any clue what the problem may be and how to fix it?
    Thank you...

    I got a way around it. It's a bit long but works. Email the memo to yourself and then download it. Then open it on itunes and find it inside the Music folder (top left). Then copy and place it wheneve you want. It's the only way I could managed to move them from the memo library to my prefered playlist (despite ticking the include voice memos box). For some anowying reason memos are not allowed to be moved around!

  • IPhone voice memos can't be deleted

    I have unchecked voice memos and eleted others from my itunes library, but they still show in Voice Memos on the iphone (when viewed from itunes. How do I get rid of them from the iphone. I think this is why I have 4GB of OTHER cluttering my iphone memory

    Thanks, selecting Manually Manage allowed me to delete the errant voice memo files. Curiously, it did not delete within the general Music folder so had to dlete from there as well. I think they are gone, but saw no reduction in space used. Have to look somewhere else for that.

  • 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.
