How to delete corrupted sync files?

Hi,
A few days ago I synced my iPad running iOS 4.2 with my Windows 7 Computer using the latest version of iTunes. Unfortunately the computer hung while syncing and I killed itunes.exe. After unplugging and connecting my iPad again it was not being detected by iTunes so I disconnected it and started to kill all processes that have something to do with iTunes (like AppleMobileDeviceService.exe, iPodService.exe, etc) hoping that iTunes will restart these processes and recognize my iPad without having to reboot.
I started iTunes again, but still no luck. So I rebooted my computer.
After the reboot my iPad shows 5GB in "Other" in Capacity.
I've read some Threads and all of them say that the only solution is to completely reset the iPad. I tried SoftReseting by holding down the home and power button for some seconds, rebooting the iPad normally, installing and uninstalling some apps and restoring a Backup. Nothing worked.
Do I really have to completely reset my iPad and install/configure everything from scratch or is there a way to delete the corrupted sync files on the iPad?
Thanks in advance!

All I have heard is to restore you iPad to factory defaults. However, if did not sync the mishap occurred, the backup you have should be before the mishap. Therefore, restoring from backup should bring you back to before the mishap. You can check the date of the backup by going to the Device tab in iTunes's preferences.

  • Recover lost deleted corrupted music files tracks from iTunes match icloud

    Just spent an hour on Apple's tech suypport line, all to figure out how to recover lost/deleted/corrupted music files/tracks from iCloud / iTunes Match.  Here's how to do it:
    ASSUMPTIONS:  You're in iTunes on your computer, logged into your iCloud account.
    Within iTunes, in the left-hand pane, select your Music library.  Alll your tracks should appear in the right-hand pane.   Those that are missing from your disk should be marked with an asterisk icon to the left of the track.    Do the following...
    ...select all the missing/lost/deleted tracks (using the option button), and hit the delete button.
    NOTE:  when the delete dialog box comes up, make sure you do ***NOT*** click the "Delete from iCloud" selection!!!
    ...once deleted, select all the same tracks again, then hit the right mouse button, then select "Download".
    All the tracks should start downloading, one by one, from iCloud.
    NOTE:  If I were you, I'd perform this operation on discrete chunks (no more than 500 at a time), just to be safe.
    Good luck!

    You can also recover the missing tracks from the backup you are keeping on an external HDD. You are backing up, aren't you?

  • How to delete unused audio files in a project?

    Hi guys,
    The question is fairly simple:
    How to delete unused audio files in a project?
    I can't manage to find the answer in the manual,... all I could find is how to delete audio outside used regions!
    But in the projects I use, I have loads of outtakes which I don't use in the project anymore, and now, I would like to delete them of the audio folder to save space on the HD.
    Can Logic select automatically the takes in the audio files folder which are not used in the project and delete them??
    Because there is hundreds of audio files per project, and +/- 50 projects, I just can't do it manually.
    Thanks,
    Fred

    Whoops! Yes, I knew that but a cow flew by... Sorry!
    The procedure I follow is to do what I described then Save as Project, creating a project folder. That way only the required audio is saved to the folder and I delete all temporary stuff. However, if you have folders with shared material, it's much harder and would require you to go through all your projects doing Save as Project before you could delete your old working folder.
    When doing day to day work, best practice is to create a new folder and only use Save as Project when you're working on stuff. Shared material (eg sample libraries etc) can go elsewhere and you can get Logic to copy those to the project folder automatically.
    Otherwise, Shift-Backspace in the Audio window, as you rightly say

  • How to delete archive log files from ASM through Grid Control

    Hi
    Anybody suggest me how to delete archive log files from ASM through Grid Control.
    Thanks

    It is important to specify both, the oracle version and os version when posting, so confusions can be avoided.
    In this particular case, since you are referring to asm and grid control you could be talking about either 10gR1, 10gR2 or 11gR1; but I strongly suggest you to avoid us to be guessing. In either case, you sould go to the maintenance tab of the target database and program a scheduled 'delete noprompt obsolete;' procedure. This will purge the information stored at the Flash recovery area, which I assume you have declared inside the ASM.

  • Can anyone tell me how to delete previous "keep file" files? Im trying to free up some space on my mac.

    Can anyone tell me how to delete previous "keep file" files? Im trying to free up some space on my mac.

    You can upgrade to Mavericks free, just run the App Store program and search for Mavericks. But before you do upgrade I recommend the following:
    1) make sure you have a recent backup. TimeMachine is fine.
    2) Mavericks is somewhat more memory hungry than 10.7 was. You will need 4 GB of RAM and I strongly recommend 8 GB.
    Go back to the Apple menu and select About this Mac - look under the OS info you just looked at. You'll see how much RAM your computer has now. Then click on the More Info button. There you will see your computer info listed as in: iMac, 21.5" mid 2010, for example. Return back with that information and we can tell you how far the computer can be upgraded.
    If you decide to procede and you have enough RAM upgrading to Mavericks is quite simple. Click on the download button and let it do its job.

  • How To Prevent ATV From Deleting Previously Synced Files?

    Hi,
    Due to the limited size of my laptop hard drive I have to move the downloaded movies and music video from iTunes to an external USB hard drive after syncing them with the ATV.
    I double click in iTunes the moved file to relocate it again on the external drive so it won't appear as a missing or deleted file.
    But just today, iTunes started to sync a new downloaded movie and erased all of the files that I removed from the laptop hard drive.
    So who can I prevent ATV from deleting those relocated files?
    Thanks.

    if itunes opens up and the external drive is not attached, it is going to flag any file it references on the external drive as unavailable. if the file is not made available and located by itunes before the apple tv syncs with itunes, then the file will also be made unavailable to the apple tv (correct me if i've got this wrong, but i'm fairly certain this is how it goes).
    itunes and apple tv utilize a sync relationship, and in any device/host sync relationship one or the other has to win during a database conflict.
    iTunes always wins if the file originates from itunes (i say this because when you purchase from the ATV, the ATV will push the file to iTunes that first time, but afterward if you remove it from iTunes it will be removed from the Apple TV. This is a little bit off subject but it is relevant as it is the only time the Apple TV gets to win). Otherwise, if it's not in iTunes, it won't be on the apple tv (when the two sync with each other).
    if you want to prevent the ATV from deleting the relocated files, make sure they are available in itunes when the ATV syncs with itunes.
    let us know if you make any observations where the files are available and this continues to happen.
