HT1689 how do i delete the yellow capacity what is that cause by i have an ipod touch 4th gen

i have an ipod touch i want to rent a movie but its not letting me cause its telling me i dont have enough storage space and my itunes on my computer telling me that in the capacity its showing yellow in other what does that mean?how do i delete it ? i have an ipod touch

If the "other" is greater than about 1 1/2 GB  usually indicates that the "other" includes corrupted files.  Usually restoring from backup eliminated the corrupted files. However, sometimes restoring to factory settings/new iPod is required.

    I have an iPod touch 4th gen. and the screen went yellow. The battery wasnt low when it happened. It has been like this all day. What can I do to fix this?? PLEASE HELP!

    Try:
    - iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
    - Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode

    - If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
    - Try on another computer
    - If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

    Restore, if iTunes will let you.  Everything except the password will be restored.  Connect via cable to the computer that you use for sync.  Be forewarned that it takes a long time.  From iTunes, select the iPad/iPod and then select the Summary tab.  Follow directions for Restore and be sure to say "yes" to the backup.  You will be warned that all data (apps, music, movies, etc.) will be erased but, as the Restore finishes, you will be asked if you wish the contents of the backup to be copied to the iPad/iPod.  Again, say "yes."
    At the end of the basic Restore, you will be asked if you wish to sync the iPad/iPod.  As before, say "yes."  Note that that sync selection will disappear and the Restore will end if you do not respond within a reasonable time.  If that happens, only the apps that are part of the IOS will appear on your device.  Corrective action is simple -  choose manual "Sync" from the bottom right of iTunes.
    If you're unable to do the Restore, go into Recovery Mode per the instructions here.

  • I have an iPod touch 4th gen. why does it show the wrong album art only on my ipod and not on itunes? Is there any way I can fix it?

    I have an ipod touch 4th gen. why does it show the wrong album artwork on my ipod and it's fine on itunes. why is that and is there any way to fix it? please help!

    I think it can't find the right or any artwork and ends up putting junk in there.
    And can happen with artist and other tags.
    probably fine with commercial media but otherwise....? I think you have to manaully go in and edit
    I also don't like how it handles and stores non-Apple iTunes store content.

  • I have an ipod touch 4th Gen that everything was working perfectly. After the last update of iOs5, the battery have charge 20 minutes. Even after the correction of the iOS 5.0.1 the battery have the same 20 minutes. What I can do?

    Hi
    I have an ipod touch 4th Gen that everything was working perfectly. After the last update of iOs 5, the battery have charge 20 minutes. After the correction of the iOS 5.0.1 the battery have the same 20 minutes. What I can do? Thanks

    Same thing here. Try putting the brightness down all the way (its hard to see at first but you will get used to it) and one more thing is that close all you open apps. So to do that you have to click the home button twice (after you put your passcode in) and you will see some apps in the bottom. Hold it until there is a red - sign. click all of them so they go away. This does not delete your apps it just makes your ipod better.

    i have an ipod touch 4th gen ... love it .. but only one problem... the headphone jack is giving trouble.... help me plz!!

    Have you verified that it is the headphone jack that is the problem by trying opther sets of headphones?
    Have you tried cleaning the jack by using a QTip or similar ite?
    If you confirmed that the headphone jack is the problem Apple will ony exchange the iPod for $99, $149 or $1999 depending upon the capacity.

  • Have an iPod touch 4th gen.  It is completely charged, but once I disconnect from a power source it shuts down and then the apple logo just keeps reappearing.  I have restored via iTunes and reset all the settings.  Any suggestions?

  • I have an ipod touch (4th gen) and just bought a clock/charger/player.  It says I need ios 4.3.  I keep getting a message saying I can download 6.? but it will wipe out everything on my ipod.  Is there a way to get the ios without wiping out my files?

    I have an ipod touch (4th gen) and just bought a clock/charger/player. It says I need ios 4.3. I keep getting a message saying I can download ios 6.? but that it will wipe everything off my ipod.  Is there any way to get the ios without wiping out my files?

    There is no supported method to "downgrade" iOS on any device.  If you update, you will get the latest iOS for your device, which will be iOS 6.1.3.  You cannot go backwards to iOS 4.3
    If you have never backed up in either iCloud or iTunes, then upgrading to iOS 6.1.3 will involve restoring your device as part of the upgrade.  Without a backup to restore from, you will loose everything that is on it.
    You should first connect to iTunes with your computer, sync your device without upgrading and create an up to date backup of everything.  Then use the upgrade option in iTunes to update your iOS.
    However, if the dock device strictly requires iOS 4.3, it will not work, as you cannot downgrade iOS.  There simply is no mechanism from Apple to do that.

  • HT4859 we have a iPod touch 4th gen and the screen is locked and it will let us restore it what now

    we have an ipod touch 4th gen and the screen is locked up and it will not back up or restore. I have removed iTunes and reloaded also iCloud the same we are needing help

    A reset may help. Tap and hold the Home button and the On/Off button at the same time for approximately 10-15 seconds, until the Apple logo reappears. When the logo appears, release both buttons and await restart. No content will be affected.

  • I have an ipod touch 4th gen, installed the latest update to iOS 6 and have lost all my music. Where did it go?

    I have an ipod touch 4th gen, installed the latest update to iOS 6 and have lost all my music, apps etc. It also linked up with an alternate email address???? Help!

    I have a similar issue happenning with my ipod touch 64GB running IOS 6.0.1.  My music content is stored via itunes on my Snow Leopard macbook pro as well (and not in the cloud).  The music on my ipod (which is sync'd to my macbook pro when I connect via usb) has randomly disappeared about 3 or 4 times lately, not during sync'ing and unrelated to battery charge levels. Fortunately I have been able to restore it by restarting my macbook pro then re-syncing the ipod, which it is now doing as I write, but it takes hours (for over 3000 songs).  Having looked at a few other forum discussion pages, it seems this may be a bug related to IOS 6 updates and using music/itunes and podcast playing apps. The same thing has intermittently occurred with some other content such as downloaded podcasts, iplayer content and photos. Once I reconnected the ipod it synced and apparently restored the content, but I can't understand why it lost it in the first place, and its very annoying. Lets hope the reinstalling works on my ipod tonight....up to 248 of 3326 songs syncing as I write....

  • How do I back up all of my pictures that are saved on to my iPod touch 4th generation?

    I have looked through nearly all of the setting on my iPod touch 4th gen. and I can't find out how to back up all of my pictures. Are they automaticly updated to the cloud and if so how do i get to the cloud?

    Camera roll photos are automatically included in your iCloud backup.  However, if you delete them from your iPod and continue backing up, the backup that contains the deleted photos will be overwritten by one that doesn't, and the deleted photos will be lost.
    The safest thing to do is to import them to your computer while they are still in the camera roll, as explained here: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4083.
