Huge .ithmb size on IPad 3?

Hi all....been googling on this topic and haven't found much.  I noticed when I recently synced to ITunes that my Other space was at 3.5GB. I have a 32gb Ipad3. I thought that was extremely large as many articles on the Internet said it should be at a gig or less. So I did a full restore and it went from 3.5 to 3.2.  I downloaded disk aid to see if I could tell what was going on. When I navigate to the PhotoData/Thumbnails folder, I have files like 158x158.ithmb, 240x240.ithmb, etc. that total to 2.5gb. The total size of the actual Photos section of my ITunes is about 3.6GB which is accurate as I compared it to my folder size in Windows 7. 
What are these files and how do they relate to my Photos?  I deleted them but when I resync they total back up to 2.5 GB again. So I have 3.5gb of real Photos and 2.5gb of these files related to those pics???  Is there a way to get these smaller?  Is 2.5gb right for that size of a photos directory?  Help!

Anyone have insight on this? I tried running another experiment last night where I had my Ipad sync a smaller folder of pictures that were a little over 3GB in size on my computer. Before the sync, my Other was at .87GB. After the sync, my Other was at 1GB and as I suspected, the .ithmb files were at 300MB when I looked with Disk Aid.
Is this normal behavior for the .ithmb files on the new Ipad? I am loading 9000 pictures on my Ipad which means my .ithmb files are huge (showing over 4GB of Other when sync is finished). Any insight from those who have a lot of photos on the new Ipad and could tell me the size of their .ithmb files using Disk Aid or another tool would be greatly appreciated!

  • IPhone apps used to appear in iPhone size on iPad.  Since updating to iOS7.0, these apps are HUGE and unreadable.  How can I display actual size in iOS 7.0?

    I realize this is a Mac forum, but I am sure there are iOS users here as well.  My problem is that apps made specifically for iPhone used to display in regular iPhone size on the iPad which was fine --- it was workable.  Since upgrading to iOS 7.0, these apps are HUGE, filling the entire iPad screen.  How does one revert to the non-magnified appearance?

    I tried:
    01. Rebooting PC
    02. Rebooting iPhone, iPod Touch, iPad 2, iPad 3
    03. Stoppng and restarting Apple Mobile Support service
    04. Deleting backup in iTunes
    05. Buying music and transferring purchases
    06. Transferring photos
    07. Buying app and transferring purchases
    08. Deleteing and reinstalling iTunes
    09. Backup to the iCloud (failed as well)
    10. WIFI sync
    11. Return the iPod Touch to factory settings and reinstall from backup
    12. Return the iPod Touch to factory settings and install as new device
    ABSOLUTELY NOTHING WORKED !!!  I still cannot backup because iTunes cannot start a session.
    My devices are completely vulnerable to loss.
    I have spent hours searching the Internet trying to find a solution.
    I have concluded that the iTunes software or its driver are at fault.

  • Huge Syncing bug when iPad is almost full

    Hi,
    Just wanted to report I've just encountered a huge bug some minutes ago.
    My iPad1 16gb (4.3.3) was almost full, there were something like 491mb left.
    Tried to sync it via iTunes (10.3.1) which was unable to sync and import purchased apps cos it considered there was no space left on the device. I must say sync was set on manual, apps were not to be synced automatically, as for videos, photos and everything else.
    Tried once again and same result. Unable to sync cos' iPad is full.
    At this point, iTunes just crashed.
    Relaunched it and tried to sync iPad a third time, which failed eventually.
    At this particular point, iTunes just told me it was unable to read iPad's content and that I had to restore it…
    I feel like there's something really weird which is happening here. I mean, there were 500 mb left and iTunes considered iPad full… which means it can be quite a huge problem for 16gb iPad owners if this bug is "spread" — or say generic.
    BTW, I could have lost 2 months of hard work (and it is quite ironic as it was some work for an ebook to be sold on iBookStore soon) if I had not backed-up everything before (when there were 1gb left on iPad). In other words, the device I'm using a lot in my creative process could have screwed me. I wanted to use only iPad and iPhone for some projects but this event shows me it's just a dangerous idea.
    If anybody encountered the same problem, feel free to report it.

    Well, as I've said, fortunately I backed up everything and i'm backing up on a regular basis since those works are precious. I've just lost some saves from recent games I've purchased and that's it. 
    I've tried to sync an iPhone 3GS (1.2 gb left) and no problem.
    Reinstalled iTunes just in case, after iPhone sync.
    Then, I tried something with my iPhone 3GS. I've stuffed it so that there were something like 330mb left and…
    same problem just happened. iTunes unable to sync, iTunes crashed, third sync and unable to read iPhone's content then restored iPhone 3GS.
    Don't know if some app is involved, i've had quite a lot of problems with Real Racing 2 HD which crashed a lot on iPad but the app is not installed on my iPhone.
    I'll try to find the crash report and post it tomorrow. Sorry, it's 2 A.M. in Europe and I'm a little bit in need of sleep.
    Thank you for your concern anyway. Good to see the community is very reactive.

  • Huge file size reduced by unlocking

    I ended up with a 2.7GB file that consisted of 8 locked tracks that had been locked and unlocked lots of times. I knew that was about ten times the real size. The only way to get rid of whatever was causing the huge file size was to unlock the tracks and Save As Archive which reduced the size to 400MB.
    Why did this happen?
    Also, is there a detailed manual available that tells you all the tricks about GB? Things like: exactly what does locking a track do (Help is not very informative); and how do Save, Save As and Save As Archive differ in their treatment of purple, orange and other regions. I have had problems saving everything when I backup to an external drive, so I'd like to find out exactly how these Saves work.

    Christoph,
    Yes I just did that. I saved a copy of the song and then trashed the freeze files that should not have been there. The song played fine, no problem. THe file went from 1.6G to 176M.
    I have found this situation in a few other files also.
    These are my saving habits when I'm working on a song. I work for a while using "Save". Then after a while I start to save many major changes as "Save as Archive". I always end a session this way. Usually I'm not concerned about disc space. I use "Save as archive" all the time because I would rather have a file with everything I'm using contained within that file. Last year I accidently trashed 10,000 loops and I have since found that "save as archive" is a helpful backup when I'm acting stupid around the trash.
    I may be one of the few folks who uses "Save as archive " so often and somehow it seems that every once in a while a hiccup occurs and the freeze files do not erase when the tracks are unlocked.
    Since this discovery I have gone thru many other files and found this to be the case every now and then. Some of the files didnt hint at being over stuffed but had a few errant freeze files. Normally I would never go and check a files contents but that one file at 1.6G grabbed my attention
    Just thought I would post to see if anyone has this problem.

  • How to adjust the font size of iPad in printing a web page.

    How to adjust the font size of iPad printout of web pages ?

    In HTML Header I put textDid you mean Page Header Text? It wouldn't have done much of anything at all in the HTML Header...
    However, the font doesn't do anything.Yet another universal selector problem: see +{message:id=4184109}+
    How do I overwrite the style sheet? I am wondering if I change the default style sheet, does that also affect the other pages, which is not what I want. In that case you can just include the CSS inline, which will also get round the universal selector issue. You are also recommended to use a semantic HTML element instead of deprecated presentational elements like <center> and <font>. Assuming this text is the primary heading on the page, use <h1>:
    <img src="#WORKSPACE_IMAGES#my_header_logo_white.jpg" alt="" title="Application" />
    <h1 style="font-size: large; font-weight: bold; text-align: center;">Web Management System</h1>

  • Maintain Server parameters to allow huge file size to pass through XI

    Hello SAP Gurus,
    i would like to know how can i check this Server parameters in SAP PI Configuration :

    Hi Michael,
    I did the settings you just mentioned in the link.
    I got through the First step where the file got processed and 50000 record data got divided into on 50000 idocs.
    But when its is posting this in BW system, then the outbound  status of the message is " Message has error status on outbound side"
    And when i see BW there are no idocs in that system. Is it that the RFC connection between XI and BW had timed out and so it did not got processed at outbound side. Or there is some other setting required ?
    Also, when we tried it with 20 K file then the outbound status is also successful.
    Please let me know how to  resolve this issue .
    Regards,
    Ravi

    How do we adjust cell size on iPad?

    When you click on a cell, a bar appears above the table and another bar appears to the left side. If you want to change column width, click on the bar directly above the column. It should be obvious from there.  Same idea for changing  row height

    After ios5 upgrade can no longer increase font size on iPad or iPhone, any suggestions apart from getting a new pair of glasses! Also, the backlight on the iPad isn't as bright as before the upgrade, any ideas?

    Hi Zak, thanks for the reply.
    The filename is whatever is set to be the background fill of the site (I presume the desktop background fill, if mobile versions are set to be different). I've tried a number of different files, sizes and types/formats and the result is still the same, so as far as I can tell it's not the file itself causing the issue...
    It uploads all pages (desktop, tablet and phone versions), .css files and .html files, and even the favicon .ico file but then hangs on the first image file, which incidentally is the background fill image.
    The total number of files is said to be 154. It gets stuck on file number 24.
    Yes the "Resume" dialog appears and upon clicking it just attempts to continue from the hang at the first image file (apparently 66% of the way through).
    Re: the "BC site has changed" part - I thought as much but figured worth reporting.
    ... Incidentally, as I've written this reply, I left the "Resume" dialog open (ie neither clicking "resume" or "cancel" and just as I've finished typing it appears to have published the site successfully?!! (I must've left it for roughly 5 minutes)
    Bizarre behaviour... I'm not sure if this will repeat itself with other sites but I'm sure there's a bug here that needs looking at regardless...?!
    Any thoughts?

  • HT4528 The screen when accessing text msg or trying to type increases in size and I can't see the entire keyboard, also a problem in the basic screen the icons get huge, almost like the ipad screen size. How do I correct?

    Sometimes when using the text screen, the font for the keyboard increases in size limiting the view of the entire keyboard on the screen. So far the only way to correct is to poweroff the iphone and the poweron aqgain and the problem ius corrected. This also happens on the basic screen, the size of the icons are enlarged, to a size that you can only see one or two icons or parts of them.

    Try going to Settings>General>Accessibility>Zoom to be sure it's off.  If the screen is already magnified, double-tap the screen with three fingers to zoom out.

  • Huge file size for .ai and .eps

    Recently I upgraded fo Illustrator CS6 and found something that is going to screw up my working with clients. The problem is that the .ai and .eps files are having really huge size (67MB on an average). I have used about 6 images (jpeg at 1024x768, less than 1MB each) made them as pattern in the swatches panel and applied on various shapes. The .ai file size is 109MB :O :O :O . Another ridiculous thing is that an art that contains only 3 lines of text plus some circles and squares (3 circles, 2 squares) filled with solid color is around 68MB.
    This is really bad when I have to send the files to the clients. Please tell me how to reduce the file size without compromising on the pattern quality. Please, this is quite urgent.

    Dang! This is really weird. The files I was referring to were for iPad (artboard size 2048x1536). I opened a new doc @ 800x600 and copy pasted everything in the other file and saved it - 109MB file reduced to 402KB jaw dropper!!! I don't know the logic behind it, but I guess it has to be something related to artboard size ...
    Thanks guys.

  • Reducing Pages file size on iPad

    I produce a 12 page newsletter comprising text/photo mix for a charity.  Unfortunately the file size saved as PDF was almost 20mb which seemed enormous for the content involved.  I put the photos through a file size reducer and reimported them but this saved only 4mb.  I can't email the document to the majority of subscribers as its so big.  How can I urgently and drastically  reduce the file size on an iPad so I can send it.?

    An other explanation may be the way Pages store characters.
    Most of the characters available in the old ASCII set are stored as is using a single byte.
    Some of them "&" for instance are stored as a descriptive string requiring several bytes.
    & is stored as &amp;
    Every other characters require six to eight bytes.
    é is stored as &#xE9;
    œ is stored as &#x153;
    ᴂ is stored as &#x1D02;

  • Upload huge file size: "The page cannot be displayed" browser

    What are precautions to be take for uploading a huge file
    I have an upload file operation in the web application. The web server is OC4J.

    After 30 seconds, it has error "The page cannot be displayed" shown on the web browser.

    Hi All,
    I have a similar time out problem, it ll be great if some one provide a solution.
    The problem I'm facing is becasue of the time out setting in the proxy server which is 1.5 mins. The app server is sending Response properly but after some 2 mins or so because the processing is a bit complicated (3 API calls done intermittently for different validations).
    I cant request for change in proxy server time out setting. So I have to handle this with in my application.
    It will be greatful if anyone helps us out of this.
    Thanks

  • Saving art boards to a PDF - huge file size

    I have a file with multiple art boards with a lot of high res imagery on each one.  I need to save these files to PDF individually (or two, three at a time) for my purposes, but when I do, the PDF size seems to encompass the entire file, rather than just the art boards I've chosen to export.  For instance, I have 10 Art Boards, but I only export Artboard 1 and 5 to a PDF - my resulting PDF is huge.  But, if I were to create a new, separate file with just the two art boards and saved as a PDF from there, my PDF size is about 20% the size. Obviously, I don't want to have to recreate these files every time I want to save as a PDF, which is why I wanted them all in one file to begin with.
    Any ideas on how to manage this?

    Just export those pages as PDF and make sure you don't check "Preserve Illustrator editing capabilities" in PDF options

  • Screen size problems iPad 1

    I have an iPad 1 and the resolution of my screen is bigger than the screen size. This means that the image is larger than fits on the screen. For instance the keyboard does not show all the keys, and the kindle dispay is too large and I can't read the whole page as it runs off the edges. How can I fix this?

    You are most welcome

  • Screen size with iPad

    When I set my iPad to mirror unto my Apple TV the screen size is small. How can I get it to be the maximum size of my tv screen?

    Mirroring won't fill the TV screen. The iPad has an aspect ratio of 4:3 and the iPhone and aspect ratio of 3:2, neither of these will fit exactly into a TV screen which as an aspect ratio of 16:9. The Apple TV will not zoom the mirrored image, because it may well cut off information which is situated at the top or bottom of the screen.
