Anybody had their VM files disappear off their iPhone ?
I did delete and iCloud re-download as per apple instructions, but so far, cloud backup has not reinstalled files ?

No but I’m gonna go back mine up right now. That’s a scary thought to lose that stuff. Sorry man!

Oh man, that’s a bummer! I have hundreds of voice memos saved on my phone. What’s the easiest way to back them up?

I was backed up to iCloud, and you can also back up to iTunes,bit of a pain to re and re the OS though, so far files have not downloaded to phone but I can access in logic by importing.

Try this?
How to set up iCloud and turn on iCloud Drive for Music Memos on iPhone
Open the Settings app.
Scroll down the list and tap iCloud.
Enter your Apple ID and password.
Tap Sign In.
If you already have Safari data, reminders, contacts, and calendars on your iPhone, you can merge them with iCloud.

My entire library of iPhone recordings vanished. It has some irreplaceable material there. Somehow I retrieved it, I forget what I did, but it was really frustrating.

Every riff and song idea I write is on my phone. I had one go down where it just wouldn't dock properly. I swear I sat with the phone for hours just wiggling that chord hoping my laptop would eventually read it. Luckily it did and I frantically copied my memos over before it lost the connection. Super lucky. Now I back it up all the time. |

Frustrating but there is a default setting to always back up to iCloud, so your files are always there.
