I appear to have 10.3gb of "other" usage on my iPad. How to find it?

New ipad user. I have 10GB of "other" on my ipad. Need to find and remove. How?

That's waaaay too high.  This usually indicates corrupt files.  Oten, restoring your device from a backup or restoring as a new device and then syncing things over cures this.  I'd try restoring from backup first.  If that doesn't solve the problem, then restore as a new device is your next best option.

    The operating system for the iPod, album art, databases, etc. all make up the "other stuff". Think of it as all the backstage things required to make your ipod work.

  • Hi. I have Lightroom 4 installed. I cannot download my CR2 files from the Canon 5D Mark III camera. I have downloaded Lightroom 5 thinking it was an update but it appears I have to pay for the program. Any ideas how I can get lightroom 4 to accept my CR2

    The Canon 5D Mk 111 was supported from LR 4.1, see the link below. Just update LR to the latest version. See link below

  • New iPad 3GB of Other Usage with almost nothing on iPad

    I use my new iPad for nothing but apps and web surfing, I have about 500 MB of apps, and that's it, but when I synced it with iTunes today I had 3GB of Other Usage Instantly once it synced. I have no contacts on there, no notes, messages, or anything. What is going on??

  • Is it possible to have your whole family on one apple id or is it better to have each person have there own? If each has their own does each id have to buy their own music and apps? How does find my iphone work with one apple id or two?

    Is it possible to have your whole family on one apple id or is it better to have each person have there own? If each has their own does each id have to buy their own music and apps? How does find my iphone work with one apple id or two? also I am going to be going off to college soon should I make an itunes id for my self and how will I get all the music from the old id?

    Is it possible to have your whole family on one apple id or is it better to have each person have there own?
    Yes, it is possible. 1 apple ID can be associated with up to 10 devices.
    If each has their own does each id have to buy their own music and apps?
    Yes, all purchases are non-transferable.
    How does find my iphone work with one apple id or two?
    Every device associated with one apple ID through Find my iPhone is tied to that Apple ID; Find my iPhone will work in the same way with up to ten devices associated with one apple ID. You cannot enable Find my iPhone for one device across two apple IDs
    I am going to be going off to college soon should I make an itunes id for my self and how will I get all the music from the old id?
    If you have authorized a computer with the old apple ID, you can transfer old media purchased through the old to other devices via iTunes. This doesn't mean the media purchases through the old apple ID it transferred to the new account. If you plan to make future purchases and don't wish to share them with others, make your own apple ID.

  • I have I pad and IPhone my daughter had iPad how can I video chat with her

    I have a iPhone I gave my daughter my iPad how can I video chat with her?

    Next time before having to pay this regular Microsoft tax, include your iTunes library with your computer's backup per the instructions included with this link.
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1751
    iTunes includes an option to transfer iTunes content that was purchased/downloaded from the iTunes store from an iPod, iPad, or iPhone, but this is for iTunes content that was purchased/downloaded from the iTunes store only.
    First you need to re-authorize your computer with your iTunes account with iTunes if you haven't already done so. With your iPad connected and without syncing, at the iTunes menu bar go to File and select Transfer Purchases From - the name of your iPad.

  • HT1199 My iTunes music list all have the exclamation point.  I do not know how to find the files to restore the music.  Any advice?

    All the songs in my iTunes have the exclamation point.  I do not know how to find location of the music...any suggestions?

    Ok, your music could be in one of a coupel formats, MP3 or, more likely, Apples AAC format, which has a m4a prefix.  Open Finder.  Hold Command and press F, this will open a search window in the top of Finder.  Type mp3 here, let it search.  If it finds your music files, double tap on one and "open Enclosing Folder"  That should show you where they are at.  If nothing is found, try searching m4a instead.  One of the two should show you where your music is.

    You would need to transfer it to a computer that has a DVD burner and appropriate software.

    Once I have transferred my rented movies over to my iPad, how do I then find them in the iTunes store?

    They are not in the iTunes Store on your iPad, they are synced to the Videos App. Look for movies in there, not in the iTunes Store.

  • Why do I have 4.3gb of other

    My iPod says it has 4.3gb of other and it's bothering me

    An "other" that large usually indicates that the "other" included corrupted files.  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:
    iTunes: Backing up, updating, and restoring iOS software

  • I have 2gb of other data on my iPad how do I find out what it is

    I have 2gb of other data on my iPad which I want to remove
    I've cleared out as much if the photos, videos and books I want to remove as well as the apps and music(no music at all). But this other section is proving impossible to see even when I go into the "on my iPad" section
    Can anyone help me?

    is there a way of getting rid of "local caches from apps, browsers, mail, Messages, Reading List, saved games" other than a backup and restore ?

    I have forgotten/never had a passcode for my ipad.  How can I find/set one up?

    Hi doph4140,
    If you are able to access/unlock your iPad currently (does not have a passcode) and you are looking to set one up, you may find the following article helpful:

  • I have a brother MFC-J835DW printer and my ipad can not find it to print?  They are both connected to the same wirelss network via a Linksys router.  Any ideas?

    I have a Brother MFC-J835DW wireless printer (which is on the list of supported printers for Airprint), and have both the IPad 2 and the printer connected to the same wireless network.  When I try to select the printer to print fromt he iPad, it cannot find the printer.  Any ideas?

    The first thing to do is to make sure that your printer has the latest firmware. You can download the firmware updater from Brother:
