HT4528 The "other" portion of my iPhone 4 usage takes up more than half of my space, leaving me less than 2.3 GB for music.  How do I lower the usage?  Restore doesn't work.  Resetting did not work.

The "other" portion of the usage on my iPhone 4 takes up more than half of my space.  I have no music, now no apps, dangit and I have no email, calendar and even my contacts are gone since I reset and "restored" my iPhone, still "other" is more than half full.  I can't fit what I want on my phone.  Help

Other is usually around 1 GB...
A  ' Large Other ' usually indicates Corrupt Data...
First Try a Restore from Backup... But... if the Large Other Persists, that is an Indicator of Corrupt Data in the Backup... Then a Restore as New is the way to go...

  • I am having trouble with the handle bars for music fade in and fade out.  It doesn't work.  I also cannot see wave forms for music.   Cannot select - it is grey.  On a deadline and really having problems.

    I am trying to finish a video and I want to fade the music in and out.  I have read every tutorial I can get and the help info in iMovie.  Nothing helsp.   I cannot get it to fade by just sliding the handle bars.   Other times, the music mutes completely when I try to add a fade.   I try to view wave forms for music and it does not allow me to select .   it remains grey.   I am getting frustrated.  I had no problem with 11 version.   I now have 10.0.2 version.   Can anyone help?   my computer is latest Mac Book Pro 2013

    This is described in:
    http://help.apple.com/imovie/mac/10.0/#mov3b5ded23e
    A tip though - if you have a transition at the start or end of a clip it often obscures the fade handle.  Trick is to temporarly move the transition (or delete it), move the fade handle then replace the transition.

    You need to restore.
    Everything should be on your computer, so you can just sync it back.

    Are you saying that you contacted Apple support and they instructed you to backup and restore your iPad? Or do you mean that you picked up this information from an online support article? If you spoke to an Apple rep or received these instructions via email, contact them again for further help.
    I fail to see how restoring your iPad would enable yoyr Apple ID.

    Hi ingaosk,
    Thanks for the question. Based on what you stated, it seems like you did not receive the reset email. I would recommend that you read this article, it may be able to help you isolate or resolve the issue.
    If you didn't receive your Apple ID verification or reset email - Apple Support
    Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.

    I got it to work by enabling cookies in safari settings and turning off private browsing. Cookies are probably the key thing here. Accept button will appear at bottom right of first screen of agreement.

  • Vine.co can not watch videos on other browsers do not have the problem with firefox firefox there just did not work, delete cookies, history

    vine.co can not watch videos on other browsers do not have the problem with firefox firefox there just did not work, delete cookies, history

    I think this problem may be caused by Yahoo's changes making it incompatible with the klatest version of FireFox.
    This is suddenly affecting many many people who use Firefox and are members of Yahoo Groups. All these people say they themselves changed nothing and have not been locked out before when using Firefox. But suddenly, within the last week, they are.
    What did Mozilla do or what did Yahoo do to cause this problem? I can say that I was not blocking cookies and after trying a number of things to fix it, I went to Yahoo's home page and navigated to my group from here.
    This problem is not anything a user did. Either Firefox is at fault or Yahoo is. I want to know which company is at fault and when they are going to fix it.

  • Keep receiving "USB Over Current Notices" since updating to OSX 10.6.8. I have no devices plugged into my Imac and running everything wireless. SMB/PRAM resetting did not work. Does anyone have some advice or can help?

    Hi Melissa,
    Pretty strange, but...
    Safe Boot, (holding Shift key down at bootup), run Disk Utility in Applications>Utilities, then highlight your drive, click on Repair Permissions, does it happen in Safe Mode? Reboot when it completes.
    (Safe boot may stay on the gray radian for a long time, let it go, it's trying to repair the Hard Drive.)

  • Password reset did not work

    The password reset did not seem to work as I keep receiving that the password or login info is incorrect...

    Did you receive the pasword reset email and reset it through there? If you have you need to remember that there must be a capital letter and a number atleast once in the new password
    If you're still having problems go through expresslane.apple.com who assist directly with AppleID issues.

  • I cant open apps on my iPhone 4 the touch screen doesn't work.  I have restored my phone and still nothing works.

    I can't open apps on my iPhone.  The touch screen doesn't work.  I have restored it already but it still won't work.  What can I do.

    If the touch screen is not having any response then you probably have a hardware failure. Take your phone to an Apple Store or authorised service provider to have it checked.

    Oh my god, it finally worked ! I restored on an old PC and it worked !
    Thanks anyway for your help.
    But allow me to extend to you a simple reflexion about the jailbreak (even if my iPhone wasn't... except if my little cousin jailbreaked without me noticing the advantages or disadvantages) : Would you refuse an alcoholic trying to go to rehab ? Would you really let someone trying to restore a cellular phone die without it, because he went on the bad side a couple of years ?
    Not a great analogy, but this is a user-to-user forum, and Apple will not allow discussion of jailbreaking; if someone tried to help with jailbreaking the message would be deleted. However, if you have a jailbroken phone Apple will generally not block a discussion of how to unjailbreak it. The only problem is that not all jailbroken phones can be restored successfully; it depends on the method of jailbreaking (which I can't discuss without THIS message being deleted).

  • HT201303 Please help me. I have forgotten my security answers on two questions. It is not easy to restore it. Apple support did not send me on my e-mail  the answers or did not make opportunity to have as an option to reset my security questions on line.

    You need to ask Apple to reset your security questions; ways of contacting them include clicking here and picking a method for your country, phoning AppleCare and asking for the Account Security team, and filling out and submitting this form.

  • HT1560 What if Factory Restore doesn't work?

    What if Factory Restore doesn't work?

    As a last ditch effort, try the following:
    Power off the AirPort for a few minutes
    Hold in the reset button first, and keep holding it in for another 10-12 seconds while you simultaneously plug the power back into the AirPort
    Release the reset button after the hold period, and allow a full minute for the AirPort to restart
    At this point, the amber should be blinking slowly, and you should be able to reconfigure it again using AirPort Utility on your Mac
    If a factory default reset does not work, the AirPort is defective and will need to be replaced.
