I need to create more space on my Ipod Touch

Hi, please could someone help me I recently got a new IPod Touch for my birthday and I have been adding new music on and generally having a Spring Clean organising and sorting my music out.  However when I have come to Synch my IPod the Other (yellow) bar has halved my music  memory and is currently standing at 20.98 which is a lot of memory to lose, I have literally run out of memory.   I have deleted everything I can possibly remove from Photos, Old Apps, Facebook etc leaving just the music and it hasn't made a difference.  My only conclusion is the apps I don't use the ones dictated to you by Apple they are the ones I need yo get rid of, please can someone help me by advising me on how to either get shut permanently the used apps like Stock Market or is there any other way in getting that yellow bar smaller.
Many Thanks
Jane

An "other" larger than about 1 1/2 GB indicates corrupted files.

Next, usually restoring from backup eliminated the corrupted files. However, sometimes restoring to factory settings/new iPod is required.

  • Creating more home screens on iPod Touch.

    Is it possible to create more than the 11 home screens provided?
    I now have 285 apps on my touch but I can't access them because I only have 11 home screens. How can I create more screens so I can see all of my apps?

  • If I have 23gb of media on an  ipod classic, will I need exactly the same space on an ipod touch.

    Is the formatting the same in Classic as in ipod touch?

    If it is all music and videos than it will take the same storage space give or take a little.  iPod touches are not formated specifically for a PC or Mac sothere there may be a small difference in the minimun cluster size

  • Help Need to Create more space

    Hi People,
    I have a Powerbook which has a total of 100gb in the Hard Drive. I have reached the stage where I have completely filled the hard drive with only 1.2gb. So the logical thing to do is buy a hard drive which I did with 1.5TB.
    This is what I did in the exact order:
    1. Copied the Macintosh Hard Drive of my computer into the External Hard Drive.
    2. Then I copied all of the files in my home folder into the External Hard Drive.
    3. I then made a copy of the pictures, music and videos into the External Hard Drive.
    4. I then deleted the folders in the Music, Pictures and Videos by sending it to the Trash Folder.
    5. Then I emptied the Trash Folder.
    5. I then reseted my computer and when I loaded it to my surprise the memory available was 1.48gb.
    I am not sure how this is possible because those three folders (Music, Movies and Pictures) come to at least 30gb. Can someone please tell me what I am doing wrong because I am now at the stage where I only 1.48gb which is not enough to do a security update.
    Thanks for the advice and HELP!!!!!!!!

    Specialist Entertainment:
    Copied the Macintosh Hard Drive of my computer into the External Hard Drive.
    Can you tell us exactly what you copied, and how you did it?
    Then I copied all of the files in my home folder into the External Hard Drive.
    Exactly what do you mean by "all of the files in my home folder"?
    I then made a copy of the pictures, music and videos into the External Hard Drive.
    Again, how did you do this?
    I then reseted my computer and when I loaded it to my surprise the memory available was 1.48gb.
    What do you mean by "I then reseted my computer"?
    Can you tell us exactly what you see on your external HDD?
    My guess is that you have duplicated some of the things that you have copied. Had you posted your question prior to attemting this project, we will have directed you to a much more efficient and effective way of doing it. Too late for that. Answering the questions above will give us an idea of what is going on, and we will be better able to direct you what to do next.

    I changed from manually managing music to create more space on my IPod and lost a lot of the my music since it synched with another library.

  • What is 'Other' and 'Backups' on my HD?  How can I delete them to create more space?

    Other and Backups take up the majority (235GB) of my 250GB HD and leave me with little room for anything else.  I have moved iTunes, iMove and iPhoto to an external harddrive. What are they and can I delete them to create more space?  Please help.

    "Backups" are local snapshots created by Time Machine. You don't need to delete them; that happens automatically when necessary. Consider them as equivalent to free space, which is in fact how the Finder reports them.
    As for the "Other" category, use a tool such as OmniDiskSweeper to explore your volume and find out what's taking up the space.

  • How do i create more space on my phone to install new apps?

    How do i create more space on my phone to install new apps?

    Clearing the system cache can help, and I would clear up the browser as well and Look at the Downloaded apps you have on your phone you can find them Via the settings and then Apps if there a re-moveable App and you don't need them any more just uninstall..
    A favorite App I use and have for a long time can help keep tabs on your apps and your phone itself the battery level and Temperature this app is called   SYSTEM Panel app   It comes in a free version or a pay $2.99 version with a few more features added in and less Ads.. You might give it a try.!  b33

    Yes you can delete them. Removing them from the iPad has no effect at all on the Mac.

    Close your iTunes,
    Go to command Prompt -
    (Win 7/Vista) - START/ALL PROGRAMS/ACCESSORIES, right mouse click "Command Prompt", choose "Run as Administrator".
    (Win XP SP2 & above) - START/ALL PROGRAMS/ACCESSORIES/Command Prompt
    In the "Command Prompt" screen, type in
    netsh winsock reset
    Hit "ENTER" key
    Restart your computer.
    If you do get a prompt after restart windows to remap LSP, just click NO.
    Now launch your iTunes and see if it is working now.
    If you are still having these type of problems after trying the winsock reset, refer to this article to identify which software in your system is inserting LSP:

  • Creating more space on my iPad - storage issues.

    my iPad is a 16 GB device and shows I have 750 MB left but I have only used 12.5 GB. Why? I keep deleting things and it barely creates more space.

    Hello Davisesq
    Check to see what is taking up so much space on your iPad by going to Settings > General > Usage or plug it into to your computer and look on iTunes to see that capacity.

  • How do I create more space on Time Machine backup disk?

    How do I create more space on Time Machine backup disk?

    since time machine in Snow Leopard stops backing up when there's no more space on the disk,
    That is has not been my experience, and does not appear to be agree with this Time Machine documentation:
    Backup drive fills up
    As your backup drive begins to fill up to its capacity, Time Machine intelligently deletes the oldest backups to make room for newer ones (and will alert you if the "Notify after old backups are deleted" option is selected in Time Machine preferences).

  • HT201364 what is the best way to create more space on start up disk?

    I am trying to upgrade Mac OS X to 10.9 to improve syncronisation between MAC and Ipad. However I am getting the message "startup disk almost full". I was wondering how I can create more space without deleting programs and files that are important to the functionality of my MAC. Knowing what to delete would be helpful but I am a little worried that I might delete somethng very important without being able to retrieve it, if necessay. I have a 500GB WD external hard drive if that helps in answering my question. Thanks in advance for any bright spark that can answer this question.
    Andy

    You should always maintain an absolute minimum of 10 - 15 GB of empty space in order for the OS to function properly. If you do video editing, then you should have a lot more - at least as many GB free as you have temporary files in your project (an hour of HD video project could easily amass more than 100 GB). So, follow Linc's link. You can also permanently move your iPhoto library to an external disk:

  • Creating more space to install programs

    I have a power mac G5, upgraded to OS X.4. Recently I FINALLY finished a complete movie and burned it in iDVD however, there was a lot of jumpy-ness, crackling sounds and pixllating. (I used iDVD from iLife 06)
    To fix the problem, my local apple service provider recommended I upgrade to DVD Studio Pro. It came bundled with FCP Studio, LIve Type, Soundtrack Pro and Motion(I have never used Motion) - it cost me $150.
    To install all the programs takes 34 G of space and I only have 15 left . How can I create more space? should I uninstall something first?
    I also have a second internal hard-drive that I use for storage, and have not installed OS 10.4 on it yet. SOmeone told me to install OS 10.4 on it, then install the new FCP Studio on that second hard drive since it has lots of space.

    Is there any media or render files on you main system drive? If so, move them. They shouldn't be there anyway.
    General rule: Applications must be on the system drive. Everything else is just a file and can be put on any drive you have room for. Shuffle files around to make room for your applications.
