How do I find out which app is transferring all the data?

My daughter is approaching her data limit and I'd like to find out which app(s) are responsible for the bulk of her data transfers. If I go to Settings -> General -> Usage, I see a list of apps. The right column is labeled "App Data", but the User's Guide says that this column shows "(e)ach installed app’s total storage space". I can't find any indication of how much data each app is transferring. Any ideas, anyone? Thanks in advance for any information you can give me.

the problem could be something loaded in the Login Items list in System Preferences > Accounts but I have gotten rid of all those.
A question, did you just uncheck them or highlight them & click the little minus icon? Do they still show in the list? I'm not sure, but I don't think it takes effect until you restart.
Should anyone else come across this - the message is typical of not having the proper version of Pro Tools installed for the OS version being used.
In this case, the minimum Pro Tools version supported on OS 10.4.10 is 6.9.2 (or 6.8.1 with certain Digi hardware devices).

How can I find out which apps I have in the cloud

I bought a new 5s and have been downloading apps I had previously on my 4s. When I search for apps I already had, there is a cloud icon when the "buy" icon usually is, and I am able to download them with ease. However, I know there are many more apps I that I had whose names escape me. How can I see a list of which apps are available in the cloud so I can pick and choose which ones I want to download again, rather than racking my brain trying to remember all of the apps I previously had?

Hello sundayss,
The following article provides steps for downloading your past purchases from, not only the App Store, but also the iTunes Store.

How do I find out what app is connecting to the internet

Something on my iPhone 4 (fully updated) is constantly trying to connect to the internet via 3G, costing me a lot of money when I am not connected via WLAN! I can't work out what it is, but presume it is an app. How can I find out what is doing it?
I have tried deleting the cache, resetting the phone, etc. Nothing has worked. I even turned off 3G, cellular data, etc. and it STILL connected. How does that work?!
Can anyone help?
thank you!
kind regards, Gordon

thanks for the reply but are you sure about this? What difference would it make? Why 5 apps?
Even if it does work, which I doubt, at some point, I will have to resync ALL my apps again and surely the same thing will happen again, and I will be none the wiser. I still won't know which app it is. There must be a way of finding this out.
Any ideas?
What is really freaking me out is how it is connecting to my carrier (who is charging me) with Cellular data switched off.......?
Thanks again.

How can I find out which DLL version is on the end-user's computer?

I'm working on an installer program and I was wondering how I can find out what version of a DLL is on the end-user's computer, furthermore I would also like to find out if the file is locked in memory. Is there a way to do this? I figured natively there wouldn't be but does anyone know of a C++ wrapper or so?

I'm not aware of any way of seeing the list. Have you had other computer's in the past and/or updated the OS on your current computers without first deauthorising them ? Deauthorising all (which you can only do once every 12 months) won't remove any content from those computers, it just means that you won't be able to use the account's content on a particular computer until you've reauthorised that computer

How do I find out which app is using an item of hardware?

(This question may or may not require knowledge of Protools audio program to answer.)
When I try to load Protools 6.4 on my Mac, I get an error message (number 1133) saying that the DAE (Digital Audio Engine, I assume) is already being used by another app. The Avid (owner of Protools) website is of no help since it merely says to close the conflicting program, and believe it or not, some glitch prevents me from logging into their forum. So I'm hoping the Mac forum can help.
I learn from the only manual I have (Switching to the Mac: Snow Leopard edition by David Pogue: Yes, I know, I need to buy a Tiger manual)that the problem could be something loaded in the Login Items list in System Preferences > Accounts but I have gotten rid of all those. Or maybe something in Library > Startup Items or System > Library > Extensions. But there were only three items in the former (Digidesign Loader, NetGEARWLANClient Utility, and PACESupport), all of which I have moved to the trash. There are a gigantic number of items in the latter directory, and I moved only NegTEARWLANClient Utility to the trash since it least it has the same name as one of the others, though ostensibly ought not to matter.
But I still get the 'Digidesign hardware is in use by another application' error.
My manual by Pogue suggests a Safe Boot achieved by holding down the Shift key to prevent loading of the extensions, but apparently that had yet been implemented in Tiger since it doesn't work.
Having written the above, it just occurred to me to leave the Digidesign hardware unplugged till after I boot the Mac. However, before trying that, I'll post what I have so far (for fear of losing it if there's a power outage).

How do I find out what is using up all my data at 3 different times of the day?

At exactly the same time, 3 times a day something on my computer is using up all my data allowance. Any suggestions on how to determine what is doing that? I have turned off Windows update to manual.

With Windows, Msconfig in diagnostic startup. If the problem goes away, use selective startup to isolate system services or startup items as the problem group. Once you know which group you can use the tab to enable individual programs in the group then restart to test for the problem. Don’t forget to use Normal Startup in Msconfig to return the system to normal. If you find the problem program, either uninstall it or use the program’s configuration to fix it.

Since few days iPhone 4 suddenly uses huge amount of data and battery, how to find out which App is guilty?

Hi Community,
since Friday my iPhone 4 startet using huge amounts of mobile data and rapidly wastes battery lifetime (50% in 3 hous!) It also gets quite warm even when I don't use it at all.
I suspect an app does this, because in flight mode battery is ok.
How do I find out which app is to blame without having to uninstall all apps?
Thanks for your help.
Kind regards

You need to look into using the SQL*Loader utility:

Also, Oracle supports BULK inserts using PL/SQL procedures:

When using tethered capture I often get this notification "The metadata for this photo has been changed by both Lightroom and another application". This slows or stalls the loading of incoming photos. How do I find out which other application is changing the metadata and stop it?

Thanks Sean,
I've had a look at the TC settings dialog and tried to keep it as simple as possible. I also had a copy of LR 4 on the hard drive so have trashed that also incase of any conflicts. LR seems to be running ok now but as said it's an intermittent problem.
I also have a copy of Capture One on the hard drive so am going to uninstall that also in case it is trying to launch.

How do I find out which instruments are used by software instrument loops?

This isn't so much a problem, it's just something that's been bugging me - how do I find out which instruments are used by the software instrument loops?
Usually clicking on a track will bring up the instrument name in the track info pane, but if I do this after importing a software instrument loop into my song it doesn't show anything. Any ideas?
PS I have used the search function so I apologise in advance if there's an obvious answer.

in track info, under details, the instrument being used is displayed in the generator popUp menu

I want to update my phone, but i purchased many apps and music on the phone. it won't let me authorize my computer so i cannot update. i don't want to deauthorize all my computers. how can i find out which 5 computers i have authorized?

i want to update my phone, but i purchased many apps and music on the phone. it won't let me authorize my computer so i cannot update. i don't want to deauthorize all my computers. how can i find out which 5 computers i have authorized? also how can i update the software?

This is a tedious solution, which is stupid! And some users report an inability to reauthorize a computer after an "en masse” deauthorization. I can’t believe Apple doesn’t provide a list or menu to find out which computers you’ve authorized! Obviously, APPLE knows (or else they couldn’t tell us how many computers we have authorized)--so why can’t they give us access to that information about our own computers??!!!
And for an already-authorized computer with a hard drive that’s since been replaced and upgraded from Mavericks to Yosemite, would it be recognized as a “new computer” and require authorization? Would its previous incarnation (i.e., with the old hard drive and OS) be considered a separate computer? Some users report they can’t authorize a computer after an OS upgrade because of that. Can’t believe we have to do such a bass-ackwards kludge!

I share an itunes account with 3 users. How can I find out which person downloaded a certain app?

I share an itunes account with 3 users. How can I find out which person downloaded a certain app?

Agile,
Any of the above will work, depending how you would like to set it up.
Given that kids tend to eventually grow up and be independent, the best long term answer for most people is to let her have her own account and her own library as soon as she can handle it. Keep in mind that content purchased from the iTunes Store is permanently tied to the account from which it was originally purchased, so separating later is a challenge.
If you want to sync multiple devices to the same library, that will work. Or if you want separate libraries (as I would recommend), they can be either on separate computers or on separate Windows user accounts on the same PC.
For the name change: Connect the device. When the name appears in the left sidebar of iTunes, highlight it and change it.

I have two iPhones on my iTunes account. How can I find out what apps go to which phone?

I have two iPhones on my iTunes account. How can I find out what apps go to which phone?

I don't believe that there is a way to do that. I would sugest using automatic downloads to keep your apps synced across both phones. You might also want to note that just about any app you have ever download will be available for free download via icloud.
Wish I could be more help.

How do i find out what app was deleted by mistake on my iphone 5?

How do I find out what app was deleted by mistake on my iphone5?

Do you mean that you deleted an app by mistake and you don't know which one it was?
Look for it in the Apps section of iTunes. If you used iTunes to sync your phone, just choose Install next to the app, then resync.
