Saving voicemails from my iphone 4

Yeap, you're on it. Gibson had it all wrong.

Postby Ayla on Sun Jun 12, 2011 8:11 pm


I need help.

I have a voicemail on my iphone 4. I am not tech savvy or iphone savvy or any of that stuff. I have a voicemail on there that I very, very much want to save - and I'm scared that if I ever lose my phone, I'll lose it forever.

I know this may be self-evident, but I'm scared to mess it up. When I sync my phone, does it save voicemails? Is there a way to save this voicemail to my actual computer?

There doesn't seem to be a way to access the voicemail file on the phone, but you could record it off the headphone output. The next-to-last post here describes one way of doing that: https://discussions.apple.com/thread/18 ... 0&tstart=0

I believe that Missing Sync for iPhone can do it for you. Check out the details here:
http://www.markspace.com/products/iphone/missing-sync-iphone-mac.html.

It costs $40, but I believe you can download a demo to see if it works before you buy it.

I recorded voice mails once by dialing in to get them remotely from my computer with Skype and then recording them on my computer as they played with free software I used Callgraph but there are a lot of free ones out there and probably already something on your computer that will do it. I just didn't want to figure out how the windows recording stuff worked so I downloaded something else with a tutorial.

That's pretty comprehensive software! Makes me realize how much the iPhone doesn't sync.

Thanks so much everyone! I feel at least a little better that I wasn't a fool for not being able to figure out how to do it with the regular ole process. I'm going to try some stuff and report back.

I don't have an iphone but isn't voice mail more about your carrier? They don't have a web interface to your voicemail? I have verizon for my cell and I don't know if they do, I just know I can listen to my home voicemail from cablevision on a website and on the site they are just sound files.

don't know if you have at&t or verizon but it looks like verizon doesn't provide a way. Their faq about voicemail says there are many ways to archive but verizon doesn't give you a way and gives you a link to a company (cbw) that will put a voicemail on cd (or cassette!) For you for a fee after you give that company your vmail password, f'in stupid. Maybe at&t will be better if you have that.
