How much memory do I need for iPhone?

Before I purchase an iPhone 4s I would like to know how much memory I might need.  I will have some songs though currently I use only about 2GB on old iPod.  I will no doubt have some pictures and perhaps a video and, of course, some apps though I really don't know how many. I tentatively planned to buy 16GB.  My daughter is shooting for 32GB.  Suggestions and guidelines? Thanks

Hi, from what you have said above, the 16GB iPhone 4S seemsmore than enough space for a user with the outlined above, bearing in mind youdo not necessarily get 16GB, as there is the operating system and otherprogrammes that use memory, for example I have a 64GB iPhone 4S and it comeswith 57.42 GB or storage.
If you purchase a 16GB and you do seem to be running out ofspace, you can always back up your data to a computer and it can be deletedfrom your phone - meaning you have more space. If you are worried about havingthis problem 32GB will probably be the best option and will be more thanenough.
Hope this helps, any further questions feel free to ask, andI will try to answer them.

  • How much memory do you need for itunes?

    I can't run itunes,quicktime or upgrade anything on my mac mini has osx 10.4 it says I need 10.5 to download it has 256mb of mem do I have enough memory?

    I would at least upgrade to 2GB RAM, if not 4
    10.5 is not oficially sold but i'm sure if you call an Apple store or dealer you can snag a copy, you can find them online but usually pretty expensive. Below are the requirements for Leopard (10.5)
    A Mac computer with an Intel, PowerPC G5, or Power PC G4 (867 MHz or faster) processor
    512 MB memory or more
    A DVD drive for installation
    9 GB of available disk space or more
    Some features require a compatible Internet service provider, fees may apply.
    Some features require Apple's MobileMe service; fees apply.

  • How much memory do I need? 16gb or 32gb?

    If I will be using my iPad primarily for iBooks (a couple hundred ibooks) and iWork documents (maybe 100 different documents), how much memory will I need?
    Right now, I have about 7gb worth of music, photos, and apps on my iPhone.
    Also, if I subscribe to video podcasts, will that take a lot of memory as well?
    Can I get by with a 16gb?

    KC eh? I live near the area :P anyway, I would recommend 16GB. I'm debating as well but I'm going to get the 32GB version as I plan to watch movies/TV shows on mine. They do take up some space. I've been getting by on my iPhone 3G which has 8GB but now I wish I had more... I think this would be the case for me and the iPad as well so I'm getting 32GB.
    As for you if you're not planning on watching movies or tv shows (not using Netflix) then I suggest 16GB.
    The iPhone OS uses a little less than 2GB so you'll havel ike 14GB to play with.
    but if you can spare the extra $100 I'd get 32GB.

  • HT1414 how much disk space is needed for backup and restore.

    i want to unlock iphone,for this how much disk space is needed for backup and restore activiti

    OK... now subtract the music. That's not part of the iPhone backup. Neither are apps, but in app data is.
    Why are you asking? Did you get an error?  If so, then clear out some disk space.

  • Imaq 3.0 Driver, How much memory do I need to run Snap.vi?

    (1) When I am using ROI in the Snap.vi, the array should be in order of Left, Bottom, Right and Top to work it right, which is different from what Help says, that is, Left, Top, Right and Bottom. Which one is right?
    (2) How much memory do I need to run the Snap.vi? 3.0 Driver seems to need more memory than 2.5.1 Driver did. I have 255 MB RAM on my computer, but in reality, the memory usage is used over 255 MB to capture 640*480 picture.
    Could you give me a comment about this memory issue?

    Hello GraceSun.
    (1). The help menu is correct, the array should be Left, Top, Right, and Bottom for the ROI input.
    (2). I am not sure exactly what behavior you are seeing with the memory problems in 3.0. You should be able to run an image snap no problem, the memory useage will vary, but will be much less than the RAM on your computer. Be sure that you are not running an IMAQ Create.vi inside of a loop.
    Try running the example VI called HL Snap.vi, which can be found by going to Help&#187Find Examples. . . and browsing by directory structure. This VI should not be taking up too much RAM on your computer.
    Hope this helps!

    How much would a cracked screen for iphone 4S cost, if my phone is still under warranty?

    Razmee209 is correct, out of warranty repair/replacement cost for and iPhone 4s is $199, and the reason you would have to pay for that Kats524 is because accidental damage is not covered under your limited hardware warranty. Hope this helps, best of luck to you.

  • How much ram do i need for serious video editing?

    early 2008 2X2.8 Quad Core Intel Xeon Mac Pro, with 8 GB RAM (8X1GB sticks), 2 @ 1.5 TB hard drives +. Use Final Cut Express for video editing. CS4 for typical daily workflow. How much RAM do i really need to make this a powerhouse video editor?

    To make any 'good' recommendations it would be helpful to know what you are editing - DV, SD, HD? That is a big factor in determining specifications.
    If you do more than one stream of HD, you will eventually want an external video drive solution from CalDigit, Dulce, Promax, G-RAID, or any of the others you see on the side. And it also depends on what 'flavor' of HD - I doubt your running 1920x1080 uncompressed 10-bit HD off of one drive. an external RAID array might seem like overkill. Generally, the advantages are increased speed (necessary for dealing with uncompressed, high-res footage) and redundancy so you don't lose everything if a single drive dies.
    Get AJA System Test to test the speed of your logical drives so you can get an estimate of what you are looking at.
    You really DON'T want your OS and programs on the same drive as your media files. It'll cause performance bottlenecks and all kinds of grief.
    Those WD 10K 300-600GB drive is perfect for your OS, applications, and swap files. That's ALL that you want to have on it, and add one or even two faster drives as a RAID 0 pair for more speed and space. Get at least one 7200RPM drive for video/graphics/etc.
    For your video storage:
    The hard drives you mentioned are fine for standard definition video. However, if you want to edit high definition or otherwise have complex / advanced ideas for your projects, you'll need something with higher read rates than just those single drives. This gets pricey, so depending on what you're intending to do, may not be appropriate for you.
    During video CAPTURE your hard disks need to be able to write at a speed meeting or exceeding that video data stream. If other programs use the same disk you are saving too, then you have and increased change of missed writes to the drive. That is why they suggest having a seperate set of disks for capture. Not a bad idea.
    *Strip size*
    should be => 128K, I would use 256K. More importaint is cluster size. The default is 8 K which is good for the operating system plus programs as over 50% of the files are =< than 8K. For large files (is dot VOB can be 1 gig) it is not the best. When you write a large file each clustter contains a pointer to the next cluster that is to be read. I used 32K, or 64 K (at work so not sure) cluster size for my disk containing Pitures and video. The size of the file allocation table is also reduced by using the larger cluster size.

    If you need to convert HD to SD, then you want hardware like the AJA Kona LHi or Kona 3 and those require a Mac Pro. If you go that route, get the fastest Mac Pro you can afford, minimum 8GB RAM, ATI 4870 card.

  • How much space do I need for back up when I upgrade?

    Hi All,
    I'm going to upgrade to 10.8 from 10.6.8.
    I have never used time machine before, but am planning to do so now to back up before upgrading.
    My disc is around 600GB in total.
    If all goes fine, after a few days I plan to back up again with the new osx, continue from that point making regular back ups in 10.8.
    Question: Do these new back ups in 10.8 start from scratch as its a new OS, or will Time Machine just add the changes to the first one I did, like it would normally do.
    The reason I ask is that I'll have no need for the 10.6.8 back up once all is installed and working fine and backed up in 10.8.  So if its a fully new back up, then I'd like to delete the inital one so I'm not using 500gb of space twice.
    Thanks for your help.
    Richard

    If you perform an upgrade to Mountain Lion, Time Machine will carry on using the backup you started with Snow Leopard, so it will continue making incremental backups. Also, it will keep your Snow Leopard backups

  • How much disk space is needed for scratch files?

    I hope I am allowed one dumb question.  If so, I would like to know how much disk space should I allow when setting scratch files, if my MTS file is 16GB?  I am using Premiere Pro CS5 on a PC with Windows 7 Pro-64 bit.

    how much disk space should I allow when setting scratch files
    All of it.  Put them on a large disk (500GB or more) and just let PP take care of the rest.
