Saving a voice mail to my hard drive.

Posted on 05/11/2010 4:21:31 PM PDT by LouAvul

It's in reference to a voice mail which has been emailed. Now I'd like to save the voice mail/email (which currently resides in a hotmail account) to the computer hard drive.

thanx in advance.

I’d like to know the same, if any out there has any ideas. I have several voice mails on my blackberry that I’d like to save to my computer & I don’t know how to do it.

...any advice would be welcome!

Thanks.

Well, if your computer has a mic/record function, you could maybe just hold the phone up to it, hit play and record......three second test to see if that'd work.

I’m right with you in that lowest tech tier:)

No mic. I’m wondering if a chip would do it - or if there was something in the blackberry desktop setup that would take in the voice mails.

Thanks!

Just ‘click’ on it and download it to the folder of your choice.

It’s the same for any email you get.

Sorry.. Should have said it’s the same as any ‘attachment’ that you get in email.

Just click and save.

I tried that but the download box pops up, looks like it’s downloading, then says it can’t download.

If you’re running Firefox, click on ‘tools’, ‘options’,’General’.

Click ‘Ask me where to save files’, then click ok.

Click on the ‘attachment’ again, and when the download box comes up, click on ‘location’ and click ‘desktop’.

Sometimes, audio files want to be saved on the Desktop.

Don’t know why that is, but I’ve run into this problem before.
