What I have used some time back and I’ve had installed for years is ecamm 
PhoneView:
<http://www.ecamm.com/mac/phoneview/>   $19.95

 "PhoneView is a Mac application which allows you to store files on your iPhone 
or iPod Touch. 
It also provides access to the iPhone or iPod Touch iTunes media, photos, 
notes, SMS messages, contacts, call history, web bookmarks and history.”
