Try this. It worked for me. I have had to do it more than once over the last few months because the problem recurs, even with the latest iPhone update installed. I found the solution on the web, but I it was not easy, and now I cannot relocate it.
1. Unplug Iphone from Mac.
2. In iTunes, select File –> Library –> Organize Library –> Consolidate files
3. Plug in IPhone & SyncThe voice memos should be there.

Sep 4, 2011 9:21 PM in response to anneravenby v2max,Thanks to FretBuzzin advice!
Don`t worry about your memos as i did
I had a new library and I was trying to sync some of my stuff without losing anything valuable. Everything was easy but the voice memos... I was affraid sync/erase messege from iTunes. So I had to rename one of them and reconnected iPhone4, the iTunes asked me to download or download and sync the new software, which i have been putting off before my SYNCING problem and I hit "Download only" button and guess what happend?! It started syncing on it`s own! Crap, I thought, But next I see was a popping Voice memos under the Music Folder in iTunes ?! Apple without a bottle of something strong, hehe, is not a good Apple.
Good luck

I can't seem to understand what you are trying to say. Could you explain this more fully?
Thanks!

Sep 9, 2011 1:03 PM in response to Blond James Blondby Gabriel Bat,James Blond, When choosing what to sync to your iphone or ipod on itunes select to sync only music and deselect other things like videos, podcasts, itunes University, photos. You should do that on iTunes when clicking on your ipod icon on the left. Then sync it and the voice memos should come. That worked for me!

Nov 2, 2011 9:07 PM in response to anneravenby bjprc,Same for me. iPhone v. 5 and latest iTunes and latest OS on MacBookPro. Tried a couple of things and it's all weird. Tried to rename the voice memos in the iPhone, no use. When connecting to the laptop, under the iPhone its Voice Memos folder, the Memos I want are not listed. After trashing Voice Memos in iTunes, changing the voice memos in iTunes (to other genre), then trying sync again and again, switching on and off the "include Voice memos, sometimes it does download all Memos (iTunes then creates new Voice Memos folder). Problem is, haven't figured out yet the right "trick". Frustrating. And dangerous because I might lose the important Voice memo on the iPhone.

Nov 2, 2011 9:19 PM in response to bjprcby bjprc,I tried the tip of svenxtian but also cleaned out in iTunes any voice mail and the Voice Mail folder. Connected the iPhone, clicked "include voice memos" and it downloaded ONLY the last memo (that I needed most). Still, under the iPhone in iTunes, that memo does not appear. In principle I would expect that the sync should download all existing memos in the iPhone. Maybe somewwhere there is a hidden cache or memory that messes that up.

Nov 10, 2011 7:15 AM in response to anneravenby whilo_2403,I checked on the music on the library and all the notes are there, regardless the name, found them under VOICE MEMO genre (weird huh) I haven't figured how to get the "VOICE MEMOS" tab back on the library but I'm working on that.
Good Luck,
Best Regards from El Salvador

Nov 10, 2011 5:51 PM in response to bjprcby bjprc,As I am using Voice Memos every day, been trying hard. Still not clear but I am getting around anyway. Seems the best approach is to delete all voice mails in iTunes, delete the Voice Mails folder and then also check under home/music/iTunes if there are still any files existing as Voice memos. Then make sure they are gone. After importing Voice Memos I simply tranform them into MP3, keep them as anything but "Voice Memos" (genre) and even re-import them into the iPhone under a new folder/genre. Then when I connect the iPhone, I try to click / unclick under Music / include Voice memos, then synchonize. Then iTunes suddenly makes a new Voice memos folder, might complain about some missing Memos but downloads the new memos.
Might sound complicated but I've got used to it by now and it works pretty fast.
Making a new MP3 of the Memos: I change them from 64kb to 32kb quality and that seems for me more than enough, making the file sizes also smaller. Don't forget to rename the genre etc. The files sit then in "Gilbert's iPhone" within home/music/iTunes, not directly under the name of the new folder.
Hopefully Apple will correct this soon.

Nov 25, 2011 9:30 PM in response to bjprcby jadore1,I record voice memos regularly, each being 1-2hrs so can't email them. I used to sync to my PC until 10 days ago with no problem. It doesn't sync it anymore. I had already updated my iphone 4 software more than 2 weeks ago so there is no conflict on that either. I did all the suggestions above but still can't sync.
Has anyone tried going to the apple store? I unfortunatelly will not have time to go so it'd be great if any apple customer rep replies.
Anyhelp?
