Capacity reduced to 7.08 Gb after v2.0 Upgrade

The capacity of my iPhone has reduced from 8Gb to 7.08Gb after the v2.0 upgrade. Anyone know why? I have tried a restore but no difference.

It is a dirty little trick that all computer companies use. They report size in metric units, but computers report (and use) storage size in binary units. 8 Metric Gigabytes is 7.45 binary gigabytes (http://www.jonelo.de/java/nc/). The 400 or so megabytes that is used up sounds consistent with the size of the operating system (my 2.0 upgrade was a 218 megabyte, compressed download) and the default apps that are installed.
Everything seems normal.

  • 8GB iPod Touch default capacity reduced

    Upgraded my 8GB iPod Touch (bought it on August 2008 - so no idea whether its 2G or 3G)...If my memory serves me right, the default capacity was 7.38GB when the firmware was 3.1.3. After yesterday's upgrade its reduced to 6.82GB. Did iOS4 consume 1.2GB of my iPod Touch space?
    Is this only on mine or anybody else are observing the same?

    I was loving my ipod, until Apple did the dumb update. I thought the new software would make me love it even more. But what the software has done to my ipod, decreasing my battery life and lowering my capacity, it just ruined it. Apple has to fix this Cause I'm {and a lot others)are not happy! now i have less space to add music and less time to listen and play games! -.-

  • I recently upgraded from Leopard to Snow Leopard and I noticed that I have more capacity available on the Macintosh HD. I checked my files and applications and they are still on my computer. Can capacity on the HD change after an OS upgrade?

    I recently upgraded from Leopard to Snow Leopard on my MacBook and I noticed that I have more capacity on the Macintosh HD than before the upgrade. I checked my files and applications and they are still on my computer and nothing appears to be missing. Before the upgrade I had around 111 GB capacity with around 10.50 GB available on the Mac HD but now after the upgrade I have 119 GB capacity and 20.92 GB available. Can capacity on the HD change after an OS upgrade?

    No, but the upgrade removed unneeded PowerPC code and changed the way free space is determined.

    Hi,
    What BDB release are you using? If it's one of the latest releases, then what you are looking for is the DB->compact() method:
    http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E17076_01/html/api_reference/C/dbcompact.html
    The DB->compact() method compacts Btree, Hash, and Recno access method databases, and optionally returns unused Btree, Hash or Recno database pages to the underlying filesystem. Please let me know if it helps.

  • Capacity bar says 28 GB 'Other' after iMatch?

    My iPad capacity bar says 28 GB 'Other' after iMatch. 6.3 GB remaining? I just noticed this this morning. What the heck is 'Other' - Help Appreciated - IM

    You should run your iPad's battery all the way to zero and then recharge it.  It should get rid of MOST of your "Other" files.

  • IPAD2 very slow after IOS 8 upgrade

    After IOS 8 upgrade many aplications ( Safari, Facebook, etc) load  very, very slow (comparing with 7 version) , with a significant delay of more than 10 seconds...
    Who can I solve this problem? Any workaround?
    PD
    Apple should better test the software before delivering.
    Thanks.

    Here's the list of the most annoying issues that affect me since updating my iPad 2 64GB w/Cellular iPad to IOS 8:
    EXTREMELY SLOW - When opening apps, or switching between them - We are talking just the built-in apps. Mail, Safari, Settings....
    Extremely slow Wi-Fi AND broadband. The Wi-Fi is the worst though. Horrible. Page load times are 2 to 4x slower than my wife's iPad.
    Battery life reduced by at least 25%. Used to make it all day long, now I am having to plug it in.
    Heat - It is working so hard that the processor is heating up. That can't be healthy for it, and surely the majority of the power issues stem from this.
    Copy/Paste not functioning correctly between browser windows. Oh this is frustrating. I just want to paste the URL of one website I am on to Facebook, for instance. Even though I COPY, it's pasting in info I clipped a earlier in the day to one browser tab, but if I open another one, it will paste the correct information. You never know what you are going to get.
    Cannot post a photo to facebook by hitting the camera icon when leaving a reply or making a post (using web browser version)... It starts the upload, then just stops. I *CAN* go to photos, then SHARE it to facebook, but that doesn't allow me to post a photo along with a reply.
    Multiple app crashes per day. This I can deal with. It's nothing new, it's just more frequent. Safari and Mail seem to be the major culprits. It wouldn't be so bad except it takes 2-4 seconds to reopen the crashed app. Sometimes as much as 10 seconds.
    And that's just the annoying ones....

  • Why don't I have reduce motion option with iOS 7.0.2 upgrade?

    Why don't I have reduce motion option with iOS 7.0.2 upgrade?  It is making me really dizzy and sick to my stomach similar to reading in the car (can't do that either).  I read to go into general settings, accessibility and click reduce motion....I do not have this option at all.  HELP!

    Seconded. Although my main problem w/ that zoom-out-as-app-loads effect is that I suspect it's the source of that annoying delay between app zooming open & UI being active/accepting input. When I switch between apps, after the zoom completes, there's 1-2 seconds where the app accepts no UI input at all. This seemed instantaneous in iOS 6.
    (Oh, off-topic, but the control center is devilishly hard to sweep up. most of the time I accidentally start Safari or Mail.)

  • Text notification not working after recent software upgrade.

    I also have the Galaxy s4 and have noticed issues after the recent upgrade. My device will only vibrate now when receiving text messages, the notification sound doesn't seem to work anymore. I've tried adjusting settings on both my messaging apps until I'm blue in the face and can't seem to make anything work. Other notifications still work ok for the most part. Any ideas??

    Please, nobody waste any time replying to this issue as the problem appears to be fixed now. I rarely restart my laptop as I usually just put it to sleep, however, I restarted it and the problem looks to have gone away. I may have fixed it with some of the things I tried, but the laptop may just have needed restarting - I'm not sure.
    But as long as the problem is resolved, I'm happy. :-)))
    Thanks anyway!
