All storage defined as Other?!

I checked the storage on my 2011 Macbook Air, 256GB SSD and all under About this Mac and Storage.... ALL the Storage is read as Other?
Any one have any idea as to why and how can I fix this?
Thanks

Hi,
Can anyone help me with this: (see attached picture)
I suppose there is a (preference) file to reset in order to display correctly the storage information ?
Thank you for your help.

    First thing to try is to reset your device. Press and hold the Home and Sleep buttons simultaneously ignoring the red slider should one appear until the Apple logo appears. Let go of the buttons and let the device restart. See if that fixes your problem.

  • IPhone 5 has 18.06 GB of storage dedicated to "Other"

    I upgraded to iTunes 11.1.5 last week and have had non-stop issues with it since. At first, I couldn't get my iPhone 5 (running iOS 7) to sync at all and after doing many manual resets and re-installs, I finally was able to sort out that issue by resetting the phone to factory default.
    Now, however, when I connect my iPhone to iTunes the storage bar shows that I have 18.06 GB of storage dedicated to "Other" and I have absolutely nothing syncing to my phone as far as media goes. No photos, no music, no movies, no podcasts, no apps. I can't even add music or else my phone fills up instantly.
    This is 100% unusuable. Though it's the first time I've ever had an issue with my iPhone or iTunes, this is absolutely a deal breaker. I can't do anything with my phone. It's a brick.
    What gives?

    OTHER DATA
    Other data on your device should only be about 1.5GB and larger than this may indicate corrupt data.

    To get rid of it you need to restore not from a backup.

  • In which case we need a class with all methods defined as abstract ?

    In which case we need : A class with all methods defined as abstract (or should we go for Interface always in this case)

    The concept of interface and abstract class overlaps sometime, but we can have the following thumb rule to use them for our specific need:
    1) Interface: This should be use for code structuring. They standardize your application by providing a specific contract within and outside. If you think abstract class also provide structure, then reconsider as it limits the structure re-usability when there are many super-classes to inherit from. Java allow multiple inheritance by interface and not by Abstract class.
    2) Abstract Class: This should be use for code-reusability. Interface doesn't have any code so can't be used for code-reusability.
    Actually we can use both to provide the best.Taking a refernce to J2EE framework, the "Servlet" is an interface. It laids down the contract/structure for any code to be a servlet.
    But the "GenericServlet" class is an abstract class which provides implementation of some of the methods defined in the "Servlet" interface and leave some method abstract.
    Thus we see that the "Servlet" interface standardise the structure and the "GenericServlet" abstract class gives code re-usability.
    Original Question:
    In which case we need a class with all methods defined as abstract ?To this question, as all methods are abstarct we don't have option for code-reusability. so why not add standard structure concept to your application. So if there is not any restriction on making the field variable(if any) as final, we should go with the interface concept.

  • ATP CHECK in all storage Location of the Plant

    Dear gurus,
    we have the stock for the component in the storage location :
    Storage Location A 10 PZ
    Storage Location B 30 pz
    Storage location C 40 pz
    In the planned order for this component there is the storage location A.
    The ATP check ( in the transaction MDVP) confirm the quantity only in the storage location A, but i would like confim the quantity stock of all the storage location, also having to maintain the storage location A in the position of the component in the planned order.
    For example for the planned order the requirement for this component is 30 pz , when i run the atp check the system confirm only 10 pz in the storage location A present in the position of the component, but i need confirm all quantity because present in others storage location, also having to maintain the storage location A in the position of the component in the planned order.
    I need see in the avalaible ATP check all the storage location of the plant, there are the customizing setting or material master setting.
    Thanks a lot
    Daniele Pistilli

    Daniele,
    First determine which ATP check is being used for your planned orders in OPPJ under plant or MRP group.  Then, also in OPPJ, under 'Determine Check', modify that availability check by ticking the 'no stor locn inspectn' box.
    Perhaps you can advise your 'friend' [Luca Malavasi|http://forums.sdn.sap.com/profile.jspa?userID=841888], of this response as well.  He has asked the same question. 
    Atp Check see all storage location of the plant

  • Need a program that will save the capacity settings for all storage bins

    Hey all,
    I would really apprecaite any help with a program I am trying to come up with.
    What I need to do is create a program that:
    1. Will save the capacity settings for all storage bins to
    a file
    2. Then update them all to allow unlimited capacity BUT be able to revert back to the
    original that was saved.
    Any suggestions about possible existig reports that I may be able to modify to suit my needs, or where to start from if I have to do this from scratch?

    I know I'm talking about expensive apps, but having been in prepress for about 30 years now, I really don't look at anything other than Quark XPress or InDesign for page layout apps. Your printing vendor will also be much happier with you when you use these products. Some areas of the U.S. tend to be mostly Quark oriented; others, InDesign. Ask your vendor what they would prefer, and if there are any free or cheap alternative apps they'll accept documents from.
    Apple's Pages app (part of iWork) is a decent page layout program, but hasn't been updated in four years. It also doesn't support CMYK. If you place a CMYK image in the app, it will export out an RGB version of it. Not good! You can work with RGB images if you prefer, but your CMYK translations will be left to the skill of the print shop you use to do the conversions.
    Don't even think about using Word. It has what it calls a page layout option, and does pretty much work like one, but there's no good way to import it into a real layout app such as InDesign. You end up paying the printer for their time to rebuild your entire project in either XPress or InDesign so they can actually do something with it.

  • Hello everyone i have macbook air, hello everyone i have macbook air and my startup disc is full i checked everything and and find out that all space is of OTHER and i dont know what is it and what i have to do with that

    hello everyone i have macbook air, hello everyone i have macbook air and my startup disc is full i checked everything and and find out that all space is of OTHER and i dont know what is it and what i have to do with that

    First, empty the Trash if you haven't already done so. Then reboot. That will temporarily free up some space.
    According to Apple documentation, you need at least 9 GB of available space on the startup volume (as shown in the Finder Info window) for normal operation. You also need enough space left over to allow for growth of your data. There is little or no performance advantage to having more available space than the minimum Apple recommends. Available storage space that you'll never use is wasted space.
    If you're using Time Machine to back up a portable Mac, some of the available space will be used to make local snapshots, which are backup copies of files you've recently deleted. The space occupied by local snapshots is reported as available by the Finder, and should be considered as such. In the Storage display of System Information, local snapshots are shown as "Backups." The snapshots are automatically deleted when they expire or when free space falls below a certain level. You ordinarily don't need to, and should not, delete local snapshots yourself.
    To locate large files, you can use Spotlight. That method may not find large folders that contain a lot of small files.
    You can more effectively use a tool such as OmniDiskSweeper (ODS) to explore your volume and find out what's taking up the space. You can also delete files with it, but don't do that unless you're sure that you know what you're deleting and that all data is safely backed up. That means you have multiple backups, not just one.
    Deleting files inside an iPhoto or Aperture library will corrupt the library. Any changes to a photo library must be made from within the application that created it. The same goes for Mail files.
    Proceed further only if the problem isn't solved by the above steps.
    ODS can't see the whole filesystem when you run it just by double-clicking; it only sees files that you have permission to read. To see everything, you have to run it as root.
    Back up all data now.
    Install ODS in the Applications folder as usual. Quit it if it's running.
    Triple-click the line of text below to select it, then copy the selected text to the Clipboard (command-C):sudo /Applications/OmniDiskSweeper.app/Contents/MacOS/OmniDiskSweeper
    Launch the Terminal application in any of the following ways:
    ☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
    ☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
    ☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Terminal in the icon grid.
    Paste into the Terminal window (command-V). You'll be prompted for your login password, which won't be displayed when you type it. You may get a one-time warning not to screw up. If you see a message that your username "is not in the sudoers file," then you're not logged in as an administrator.
    The application window will open, eventually showing all files in all folders. It may take some minutes for ODS to list all the files.
    I don't recommend that you make a habit of doing this. Don't delete anything while running ODS as root. If something needs to be deleted, make sure you know what it is and how it got there, and then delete it by other, safer, means. When in doubt, leave it alone or ask for guidance.
    When you're done with ODS, quit it and also quit Terminal.

  • Find names of all open windows including other applications besides LabView VIs

    Hi All, I have researched this subject, i.e., to find names of all open windows including other applications besides LabView VIs, but found no solution. Could someone suggest a solution to this?  Thanks.

    Hi,
    Certainly! The Windows API Function Utilities (32-bit) for LabVIEW includes set of LabVIEW libraries (llb) with VIs that make calls to the Windows Application Programming Interface (API) for managing and controlling windows (minimize, maximize, move, resize, rename, close, and so on) including task list with names of windows application running. The Readme.doc contains information on running these VIs.
    Attached below is a zipped file with a VI that list the names of all opened windows.

  • Can I use two Time Capsules? one as an extension of my laptop (for music and video storage) and the other one to back up everything from the laptop and  Time Capsule (for music and videos)

    Can I use two Time Capsules? one as an extension of my laptop (for music and video storage) and the other one to back up everything from the laptop and  Time Capsule (for music and videos)

    Not via Time Machine.   It cannot back up from a network location.
    The 3rd-party apps CarbonCopyCloner and ChronoSync may be workable alternatives.
    EDIT:  And, if you're going to do that, you could back up from the Time Capsule to a USB drive connected to the TC's USB port.  Second TC not required.

  • Question about garageband: I have 3 short original songs that i wanted to merge ala "Bohemian Rhapsody". Is that possible in garageband? their tempos are all different from each other. Advance thanks.

    Question about garageband: I have 3 short original songs that i wanted to merge ala "Bohemian Rhapsody". Is that possible in garageband? their tempos are all different from each other. Advance thanks.

    First of all, GarageBand iOS allows for only one tempo and there is no Merge Song feature.
    What you can do.
    Switch between the songs and copy-paste the individual Tracks. You can also Merge Tracks if you run into the 8 Track limitation.
    Hope that helps

  • Table names and column names defined by other languages, not English.

    Hi, everyone.
    I am wondering if there are any possible problems or any inconvenience
    when I define table names and column names by Japanese, not English.
    Currently, we are using SQL server 2000 as a db and windows as a operating
    system. In the near future, we have the plan to change the database software
    and operating system to "Oracle 10g" and "Linux O/S".
    I have not experienced the oracle database, which has table names and column
    names defined by other languages, not English.
    Personally, I would like to use English as table names and column names.
    In this case, I might have to provide appropriate reasons.
    Are there any possible problems or any "inconvenience" in terms of
    system maintenance, development, or something else ?
    What could be pros and cons in this case?
    Thanks in advance.
    Have a nice day.
    Best Regards.
    Ho.

    First you need to make sure your database has character set that support Japanese.
    Choosing a Character Set
    http://download-west.oracle.com/docs/cd/B19306_01/server.102/b14225/ch2charset.htm#i1007681
    The main "inconvenience" you will have is if the client doesn't support Japanese or unicode, it will have trouble to access the table.
    And say in future after the application been developed, you want to implement the schema in some English environment, you will have hard time to do it.
    My point is English tablename and column names doesn't prevent you use it in Japanese environment and save Japanese data but not vice-versa. Hope you understand.

    hi , i want to see all my photos and other throo the icloud in the computer how i can do it ?

    Well, the obvious advice is to restore your mac's backup to the new drive - I assume you've been using Time Machine.
    If you haven't been backing up the mac, then ...
    For photos, sync the iphone to the mac vis iTunes/USB and get the photos back into iPhone on the mac.  Getting back the itunes is another problem.  You can look for mac apps that read an iOS device and copy songs to the mac.  But that won't get back all the other information that iTunes used to have.  Again, only a backup would restore all that data.  As for purchased items from the iTunes store, use the mac and connect to the store via itunes and check the purchased tab or link.  There you can redownload all purchased music and other items.
