How do I share a large voice memo? I’m realizing ‘large’ is more than about 5 minutes and some of these are over 2 hrs! I’ve gotten them to my mac in iTunes but can’t email from there. Do I have to burn them on a dvd? awkward

Just realized I wrote “video memos” and I meant “voice memos” ….cheers.

OKAY I FOUND A SIMPLE SOLUTION! it looks long, but no extra programs or downloads needed!! I sync’d the iphone once, in order to get the “video memos” tab under my iPhone in iTunes. I don’t want to sync my entire iphone again. so after you have done it once (following apples instructions: http://www.apple.com/iphone/iphone-3gs/voice-memos.html) you will have a “video memos” tab under your iPhone in iTunes. By right clicking “video memos” you will see a “sync” option (only if you have NEW memos though), clicking that downloads your NEW memos into your iTunes library, you shall find them by their date and time organized by title! Simply done using your iPhone and iTunes!

I’m so frustrated. I’m recording my lectures. I expect that I can download them into itunes. Why would Apple make an voice recording app that we can’t get “voice memos” unless we sync our entire iphone? That is such an overlook! I expect microsoft to do that, but not Apple. booooo!

Thanks for the tips. I had the same problem as others says the recording is there but does not play. In iTunes or on the phone. I downloaded iPhone explorer and I found the file copied it and opened it in QuickTime. The file still will not play!! Is it just corrupted…is there anything else I can do? It was an important file, from a business meeting.

I had the same problem – could not get all the recordings downloaded – but the iPhone explorer found everything! Very helpful!
