So I recorded a 32minute voice memo which I can't e-mail or MMS obviously. Is there any other way for me to import this to my MacBook Pro?
 
When I sync with iTunes it imports my memos into the music library automatically. I dunno if I had to change something in settings to make it do that, but there must be an option for it somewhere. So look around in there.
 
Yeah that's what I thought it was supposed to do except for some reason my isn't. Maybe it's because I did a clean install of Lion and this phone isn't sync'd to this Mac.

Hell, I thought it was hard enough to figure out how to listen to them on the phone itself... Anyway, I think that is your problem, when you plug your phone it there should be a "voice memo" playlist that you can then import to your comp. Did you backup everything before you did a clean install? If so, you should be able to just transfer your iTunes library folder and settings into Lion and have your backups/prefs/etc for the phone in there.

I didn't transfer anything from the old OS to the new install. Just my luck, I have the settings to import Voice Memo's and I just backed up my phone but now I have to erase the phone to sync it with iTunes. My fear is losing that memo since it was a contract agreement. I'll just wait until the contract finalizes to do this should be a week or two.
