How much space used by App + Data
Is there any way to determine how much space is used by each app including it's data?
I have estimated how much space my apps should be occupying and it's 2 GB less that what iTunes shows. I can only assume that one ore more of my apps is taking up much more space that I think it would. I do have an app that is storing lots of photos. After estimating the total size based on the size and number of photos and talking to the developer it does not account for the missing space. The best thing is to actually see true app sizes with their data but I can't figure out how.
Thanks
HI Steve,
I do have an app that is storing lots of photos.
Something to keep in mind when syncing photos. When syncing photos to iPad, iTunes automatically creates a size optimized for iPad, if necessary. See “Syncing with iTunes” on page 28 from the iPad online user guide available here.
http://manuals.info.apple.com/enUS/iPad_UserGuide.pdf
That could make a difference in the space available on your iPad.
The best thing is to actually see true app sizes with their data but I can't figure out how.
Try resizing images on your computer first, then sync to iPad. If you are PC / Windows, help here:

8GB vs. 16 GB - How Much Space Taken by Default Apps?
I plan to use the Touch mainly for calendar, contacts, task (Data-Wiz) and browsing web and e-mail. Maybe a few songs, but focus is on getting organized through access to above info which will be synced with Outlook 2007 on Windows desktop.
Question - how much space do the default apps take up?
My Outlook pst file is 70 meg.
E-mail is 328 meg, but is the e-mail downloaded to the Touch or just viewed online?
From what I know now, the 8GB Touch seems more than satisfactory in terms of capacity. What are your thoughts?
Thanks.
Marki don't think that was the question Mark, but i think the answer is a similar one.
as far as i know the OS software (which is basically all the default apps, and is the same for all available sizes) takes up something like a GB of space, so 7GB out of an 8GB, and presumably 15GB of a 16GB iPod touch is left for the user to put their things on it.
when you add details to it, it obviously takes up more space, but not much. (i'm afraid i'm not sure enough to be more accurate).
really the major consideration for which size to go for, is how much music/podcasts/video you plan to keep on it. most apps only take up a few MB, though there are a few which are much larger. -
How to find out how much space apps are taking
i don't know when this happened but i'm using about 85gb of my 250gb hard drive, when it used to be around 50gb. so i was wondering why when i look at itunes music it shows how much space it's taking the bottom, but if i go to the app section of itunes it only shows '198 apps', but not how much space it's taking? do the apps that i have in itunes take up space on my hard drive and how do i find out how much? also i see in finder that i have some previous itunes libraries, is it safe to delete these, some are from 2008. thanks for any help.
No. It does not do that.
Just about anything from your Home directory where your files are kept can be deleted or moved.
Outside of the Home directory you have to be careful since you don't want to destroy your system.
If you have large folders or files outside of your Home directory, please ask first before moving or deleting.

I did an iphone 4 software update. It then asked me to do a "restore" in order for me to be able to use the latest iTunes. I did a "restore" to "factory settings" (this was the only option listed) thinking I'd be able to sync later and get everything back and ended up losing all my purchased apps and iTunes. When I open iTunes, "Welcome to your new iphone" and it says I can re-do the "restore" and choose my lastest update. I assume this will give me back my apps and iTunes. When i choose to do this, it says there isn't enough space on the iPhone. How do I know how much space needs to be freed up? I keep deleting photos and videos from the phone, but I'm still getting the same message every time I re-try. I don't want to delete everything, but I don't know what to do...? Thanks!
Thanks but I think it has something to do with the 'restore'. in the newest iTunes 11, when I click on the tab "iphone", it redirects me to the "welcome to your new iphone" page and asks about doing a 'restore'. I already did a 'restore', but it went to the original factory settings and I want to 'restore' to my lastest back up as of April 12. When I choose that option, it says my iphone doesn't have enough space. I don't know how much I need to delete in order to make it work. I've deleted lots, but it only has 4.1 GB available. I'm not sure why this isn't enough to do a 'restore'. I don't want to delete all my photos and videos, but maybe I will have to?...7.7GB is used up for that. I can't sync or do ANYTHING...

Hi
Sorry, new to BB and to smartphones..
The twitter app is shown as free to download, but what is the running cost of using it? What charges are imposed. Similarly with the music apps, free to download but how much to use?Data in BlackBerry terms is the flow of electronic information to and from your device, over the network.
Anyway, so now you know. Twitter uses data. BBM uses data. GPS navigation mapping applications use data to flow the maps to your handheld.
However, SMS is not "data", it is part of the "voice" pipe.
Consider your BlackBerry having TWO inlets for information.
The voice "pipe" channel contains the voice and SMS
The data "pipe" channel contains all over flow of information: email, twitter, BBM, mapping, internet browser, etc.

when I see the usage on my iPod touch 4 they have categories for how much space is being used where. What does the "other" category contain? Like what could I delete on my iPod to get rid of the "other" category?
What is the Other on my iPhone and How to Remove It
An "other" larger than about 1 1/2 GB usually indicates that the "other" includes corrupted files.
First try:
"First you go settings/general/usage/music/then left swipe over music and press delete and you would think it deletes your music but it doesn't instead it deletes your other but make sure your ipod is connected to a computer while doing this"
as recommended by:
How do I get rid of "other" storage: Apple Support Communities
Next, usually restoring from backup eliminated the corrupted files. However, sometimes restoring to factory settings/new iPod is required.
To restore from backup see:
iOS: How to back up
To restore to factory settings/new iPod see:

[SOLVED] How much space is REALLY used on my HDD?
Hi there,
Today I moved my /home/ dir to its own partition, so that my settings are safe from the system.
I have a question about the used space:
When I use "df -h" to see how much space is used, this is the output for home:
/dev/sda2 184G 465M 175G 1% /home
So 465 MB should be used. When I right click on home and select properties only 243,5 MB are used!?
I know about the MB/MiB problem... but that would not be that extreme...
Any ideas?
greetings, yodo

How much space does a new app take?
My 16GB Touch is pretty full (about 360MB left after all the music is loaded). How much space does the typical app take up?
There are some that are larger (Super Monkey Ball supposedly takes up 36 MB), but most that I have seen or downloaded are around 1 MB. SUPER small

How do I find out how much space a user is using towards their disk quota?
Weird problem on my OS X Server (Tiger) system: a user can't copy files into their share on the volume (SMB access from a WinPC) and is getting an "out of quota" error. She thinks she doesn't have that much stuff on the server, and I've set her quota to be huge. How do I find out, on the OS X Server system, how much space it thinks that username is using towards her quota?

Thanks - I'll post there.
But, could this Quota/Share be over the 4GB SMB limit?
what's the 4Gb SMB limit? A single file is over that large? We don't have that. Or it can't see any shares that have more than 4 Gb in them total? We definitely have that!

How much space do you get on a ipad air 16gb considering the pre-installed apps? Can any of those be removed to free up space?
With iOS 7 it is recommended that you have 15-20% of the storage space on the device free.
For a 16 GB device that is 2.4 - 3.2 GB free. So 13 minus 3= 10 GB of storage for music, photos, movies and documents. -
How can you tell how much space is being used up by your iTunes...I am trying to figure out how much space I will need to transfer my iTunes library to an iPod and which iPod to select?
Start up iTunes, and select Music, then click Songs.
Down at the bottom of the iTunes window, it will tell you how much space your library occupies. -

PROBLEMS WITH HOW MUCH SPACE IS ACTUALLY BEING USED
Hello,
I've just recently purchased a Toshiba Dual Core laptop (225 gigs + 3 gig memory.) It works pretty well, but I've had to reload the windows and programs again. The reason is that after reloading I have about 203 gigs of space, but then I install flash CS3 (550 mgs and photoshop 200+) After I've installed all the doc files and everything I end up with about 200 gigs of space which is great. However, I've unistalled norton and installed AVG Professional. My space amount has gone down from 200 to about 193 gigs. I don't get it; it doesn't make sense because this is isn't how much space I've actually used. I've deleted temp files and all the install files of these other programs and what's even more crazy is that when I go ahead and run scan disk to deleted unecessary files, my space goes down in size and it shows that I have even less space! Has anyone else run into this problem? Let me know, perhaps there's a solution.
Thanks,

Maybe that part number is PSLE8U-02P01D? If so, you have this model: Satellite L355D-S7901
How much space would be reasonable for me to cut back on?
I've set the shadow storage on the computers around here to 10 GB. Suit yourself.
You can save quite a bit of hard drive space by turning hibernation off. Check the size of that file. It's c:\hiberfil.sys.
And look through the stuff Disk Cleanup cites for more savings.
But if you really can't get along without more space, you should add external drives or upgrade this one.
