How can I be using so much data on my iPhone 5

How can I possibly be using so much data on my iPhone. I usually listen to Pandora for about an Hour each day I drive to work. So far (the first 8 days of my billing cycle I have used about 1 GB of data. According to Verizon's calculations I based on this usage I should be using a total of about 1.5 GB of data/month. I called both Verizon and Apple and received no resolution. Apple confirmed that the Phone's wifi shuts off WIFI when the phone is asleep. Resulting in the phone switching to LTE. Apple also indicated that apps that are in the background tend to use data as well. This still doesn't make sense. I had the same data usage pattern (Pandora) with my old 3GS and only used about 1GB/ month. There has got to be another solution. I refuse to believe that just using Pandora for about an hour/day for 5/days a week results in a GB of data usage. Any suggestions?

So, I thought itunes match (like Pandora) streams music from the cloud. I didn't think that the phone 'syncs' several times a day. I did notice a pattern between 11am-1pm data being used in the order of 29 mb yesterday, 42 mb the day before, and 43 mb the day before that. This is at a time when I know I am not using any significant data on my phone. Yesterday I even closed all my apps w/the exception of Pandora which I made sure wasn't running during the day. This additional usage can easily add up to the 100 mb/day i'm averaging.

    You can't. There is no memory card. It uses flash memory that's soldered to the logic board. If you didn't back it up, your data is gone.

    Hi kamfong,
    Went to Settings where?
    If you want to use your exisiting Apple ID on your iPad, you need to:
    1.     Go to Settings>iTunes & App Store and sign out the new ID, and then sign on the old one
    2.     Go to Settings>iCloud, scroll to the bottom and delete the iCloud account, and the sign back onto iCloud using the old ID
    You still have not indindated why you are saying that using your old ID originally "didn't work". What do you mean by that? Did you get some sort of error when you tried to sign on with your exisiting Apple ID?
    Cheers,

  • How can I transfer/merge the backup-data of one iphone onto another iphone?

    I have two iphones and want to merge the backup-data from one to the other without destroying any data on the new one. How can I do it and will this data be replaced automatically or merged?
    Thanks for your help!
    Toni

    As long as you use the same account, you can sync the same apps, contacts, music and other media content. Set up at least one contact and event on your new phone, to be able to merge your contacts and calendars. You can't transfer settings of your 3rd party apps, because this data is stored in your backup, and restoring from your backup will erase your new phone's data.
    See also: "About backups" http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1766
    You can also transfer your mail account settings using the option in the info pane in itunes, as well as the option to replace contacts, calendars, bookmarks and notes during the following sync.

  • How can I erase all phantom iCal data from my iPhone/Flat Panel Mac?

    Tried many ideas and Apple Genius could not even help me. Here is the scoop...
    I created an iCloud account then synched my iPhone to my Flat Panel. Suddenly my iPhone showed up to six duplicates of iCal events (often a week or two later than the actual event). My Flat Panel iCal showed no such events. I erased all data and settings from the iPhone, restarted it from scratch (both from a back-up and as a new iPhone). As soon as I synch it to the Flat Panel the multiple events reappear on the iPhone but still not on the Flat Panel. I checked the "replace all calendar info" box in iTunes before synching. I deleted my iCloud account. I tried synching my old 1st gen iPod to teh Flat Panel, and the iCal info there is correct. I erased the iPhone and started over by starting it up/synching with my Macbook Air. The iCal info is now correct on my iPhone. How can I go back to synching on my Flat Panel? Where is the phantom info hiding on the Flat Panel?
    Thanks for helping me with this strange problem!
    John

    Ohnj,
    I presume that you are no longer trying to use iCloud for syncing with the "Flat Panel." It will not work since you are using OS X 10.5.8.
    Quit iCal, go to your Macintosh HD/Users/yourusername/Library/Calendars folder and remove any/all files with "Cache" as a part of the file name. Then log out/in or restart and see what happens.

  • How can fix the using too much memory???

    I wrote the program about the image
    when i run with the small image like 160x120px it run properly but when i run with the bigger image like 800x600px it “EXCBADACCESS” T_T.
    the problem is occur at the array because I create the array that keep the data of the pixel of the image so i have 2 array
    1: colorValue[height][width][4];
    2: labelValue[height * width];
    that 2 array is the problem
    Anyone help please
    PS. I try to change it to pointer but it still have the problem when use memcpy T_T after i pass the array to the function
    Thank you

    If you haven't installed it yet, settings, general, usage, populate the whole list and you should be able to remove the installer. (last I read you could delete it, with iOS7 the installer was not able to be deleted)
    If you've already installed it, Apple does not support downgrading. If you'd like to go into specific issues, maybe people here can suggest some fixes or work arounds.

  • Why am I using so much data now on Iphone 5 compared to my Android?

    I have had three smart phones, two Android and now the Iphone 5 all with Verizon.  I have never come close to using a gig with my data, but now, with the Iphone 5, I am almost near my limit of 2GB for two months in a row.  I don't get it????  I use wifi all the time at home and work.  I do not stream movies.  Music, but only on wifi.  Anyone have any answers?? 

    Morning dgohio,
    Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
    For more information on this, take a look at this article:
    iOS: About cellular data usage
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4146
    You can also temporarily disable cellular data when it’s not needed.
    From the Home screen:
    iPhone: Tap Settings > General > Network
    iPad: Tap Settings > Cellular Data
    Slide the toggle next to Cellular Data to off. This will disable all cellular data traffic until it’s enabled again.
    Hope this helps,
    Mario

  • My iphone5 using too much data

    ANyone know why im using so much data on my iphone 5 ive never down loaded music films or any thing and used up 1gb in 17days

    Your probably using alot of facebook and twitter and the internet. All use alot of data.The Iphone 5 just uses data for everything either use WIFI whenever you can or upgrade your phone plan to the most data possible. Make sure you close down the apps too when your not using them. Sneaky phone services probably charge you for that.

    I just got iphone 5c and i am not happy with it. It uses to much data and i don't even know how. I can't get the ringtones i want for my contacts.I got it on my free upgrade but i want to take it back and get something else but where i got it they say i can't because i don't have the earbuds and i have serches or them. now i am suck with a phone i don't like at all until my next upgrade. this is very dishearten

    1. If you are this unhappy with that phone, and the lost earbuds is the only thing stopping you from taking it back, why do not just buy some earbuds. That way you can get rid of that phone. It all depend upon how much you want to get rid of that phone.
    2. Yet if you are stuck with that iPhone, here is something might help you to control the data usage. By design, iPhones do turn off WiFi when they go dormant. So if a download is in progress and so forth when the phone goes dormant, it will switch to use cellular data, if this setting is left on. Therefore, from multi-sources I have learned that if you keep your iPhone connected to a power source, then it will stay connected to the available WiFi.

    Once you are in Recovery Mode, it's too late to do any backup. I am afraid you are going to lose your data.
