All of a sudden my ipad's "other" indicator jumped by over 5 gigbite.  How to I fix this?

I have an iPad and an iPhone and when i log on to iTunes both devices have always shown about 7 giga bites of memory free under the "Other" category.
The other day I was trying to get a home video into my iPad (this attempt failed because my video was not if mpeg 4 format) but now only on my iPad my "Other" category shows that I only have 2 giga bites of memory free.  What is going on here and how can I get my unused memory back.  Basically both of my devices have the same set up of apps, in fact my iPhone has some more apps than my iPad.
Anyone have and ideas about this problem?

Settings/Store
However...
ALL purchases are permanently associated with whatever Apple ID was used to originally obtain them.  Apps can not be updated without knowledge of that ID and, more importantly, its password.
Apple IDs can not be merged and purchases can not be transferred from one ID to another.

  • My iphone 5 does not remember the password of my home network. Well this is ot the case with my ipad. The wifi gets disconnected every 2 minutes. Its not any problem with my wifi router as my ipad and other devices work fine. So how do i fix this problem?

    Well my iphone 5 does not remember my home network. This is not a problem with the wifi router as the ipad works absolutely fine. The wifi loses it connection in just 2 minutes. So could you please fix this problem.

    Not unless the modem is causing a problem.
    What you want to do is get it to work reliably over Ethernet first, then tackle wifi. Power off the modem. On your macbook, delete the Ethernet configuration and the Wifi configuration. Power up the modem, then connect the mac via Ethernet. Create the new Ethernet configuration and see if you can connect.

  • I own a 13-inch MacBook Pro and for the past day, my wifi on my laptop says I only have two bars of connection and is running very slow,but all of my other devices such as my iPhone and iPad are connecting perfectly to the wifi. How can I fix this? Thanks

    I own a 13-inch MacBook Pro and for the past day, my wifi on my laptop says I only have two bars of connection and is running very slow,but all of my other devices such as my iPhone and iPad are connecting perfectly to the wifi. How can I fix this? I have tried to shut my laptop off and let it rest and I have also re-started my wifi router three different times. Someone please help me with this problem so I can begin to use my laptop again as I take it to school and use it for class.
    Thanks so much!

    FCP, and all software on OSX, has a few different "preference" files (the extension is .plist), which store all your user settings. Each time you resize a window, change a setting, anything, this file is re-written. Kinda easy to see how they would become corrupt every now and then.
    -Close FCP
    -Navigate to User>Library>Preferences and delete com.apple.FinalCutPro.plist
    -Navigate to User>Library>Preferences>Final Cut Pro User Data and delete Final Cut Pro 5.0 Prefs
    -Empty your trash
    Relaunch FCP and see if that worked.
    Download FCP Rescue to make this process easier in the future. When you have FCP running really smooth, open FCP Rescue and create a backup of your preference files. If it starts acting wanky, just run FCP Rescue and Restore your backup preferences. Works really slick, and it's free.
    EDIT: Or use the really simple explaination that X posted as I was typing.

  • HT4085 Only my email will not rotate, all other applications rotate as expected. How do I fix this?

    Only my email will not rotate, all other applications rotate as expected. How do I fix this?  This is a recent development for no apparent reason, my email appears to be locked from rotating, all other aspects of my email still work.

    Quit the mail app completely and restart the iPad. Go to the home screen first by tapping the home button. Double tap the home button and the task bar will appear with all of your recent/open apps displayed at the bottom. Tap and hold down on any app icon until it begins to wiggle. Tap the minus sign in the upper left corner of the app that you want to close. Tap the home button or anywhere above the task bar. Restart the iPad.
    Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button.
    It that doesn't work - try this .... Reset the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons.

    Check Finderr->Preferences->General and ensure that HDs are selected for display. If so and they still don't, Reset the NVRAM/PRAM and Reset the SMC, and see if that does the trick.

    i dropped my ipad and now i have a "green screen" how do i fix this?

    If it's an iPad 2, it's old enough to be out of warranty. Courcoul's suggestion to trade it in for a new one is ok if you are in the market. If not and you want to take a risk - and possibly a big one at that - others have reported a pretty extreme solution to this problem. Slap it on the back.
    I know, I know. It's sounds crazy, but there are several threads here claiming it works.
    Here is just one of them. You can do a search to find others.

    Hello dannyboybell,
    Welcome to the Apple Support Communities!
    I understand that there is a discrepancy in what you see for photo storage on your iPad. One step I would recommend in this situation would be to place your iPad into recovery mode and select Update when given the choice. This will not erase any of your content. The attached article doesn’t match your issue, but the troubleshooting steps I would suggest are similar. 
    If your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch doesn't respond or doesn't turn on - Apple Support
    Make sure that you have iTunes 12 or later on your computer.
    Put your device in recovery mode.
    When you get the option to restore or update, select Update. This will reinstall iOS without erasing your data.
    Have a great day,
    Joe

  • First time use of a secondhand 3gs; SIM failure (the SIM works fine in other handsets); any suggestions as to how I can fix this?

    First time use of a secondhand 3gs; SIM failure (the SIM works fine in other handsets); any suggestions as to how I can fix this?

    Hi L.T.D.,
    To only answer the question you asked, the answer is yes you can do those specific tasks you mentioned.
    My example:
    Since you don't want the sentence if A2 is blank you would modify this formula to something like this:
    =IF(ISBLANK(A2),"","the patient reports "&A2&" that won't leave.")
    I don't see a problem if all you are looking to do is to translate your form or forms into a report. I could even see several different forms reporting to one sheet that tracks their history. It may require a lot of maintenance if there are an increasing number of forms reporting.
    Sometimes merged cells create difficulty in Numbers. A mix of popups and checkboxes may complicate things.
    I think the previous advice may turn out to be the best, though. You are asking,"If I head this way am I headed to Japan?" I am saying "Yes". They are saying, "You will need a boat!"

  • When I send my ipad pics to my pc they are sideways - how do I fix this?

    When Isend my ipad pics to my pc they are sideways - how do I fix this?

    Photos show up sideways went sent via email
    I've heard of this before, and did my own test:
    This does not appear to be a problem when opened with another apple mobile device. Just when opened on computer via webmail. (gmail.com, yahoo.com, etc.)
    Photos appeared fine when opened within my apple mail application on my macbook pro.
