Ios 5 app removal still shows space used by apps as other

I have an ipad and a 3gs. Both worked fine till i installed ios 5. Now both devices can sync music apps and seem to run fine. When i remove the apps or music it shows the used space as other instead of apps or music. it does not show it as free space after i romove it. total of 28gb free and use 5 gb for apps. leaving 23gb free. i remove the apps and it shows 5gb used in other. still 23 gb free. so i have to restore the original software in order to get free space again. I have a second computer that did not have itunes on it. downloaded itunes on it 64bit and it does the same thing on that computer. any ideas?

iCloud's Photo Stream is intended more as a sharing service than a storage or backup service. Even then it will transfer a copy to your devices. My Photo Stream has a 1000 photo and 30 day limit, after these limits are reached older photos are dropped off the stream. The idea behind this stream is to allow you to share your new photos among your devices, typically including a computer where you can easily back them up.
Shared Photo Streams may be an option, but will still download a copy to your device. These streams do not have the same limitations as My Photo Streams although are more intended to be used to share photos with friends and family with a social commenting capability.
The best option is to get your photos off your iOS devices as soon as you can after taking them. That's where My Photo Stream is handy. Once on a computer they can be propperly backed up then organized and selectively synced to your devices through iTunes.
If you still want an online solution look into an online service which could be used with your computer as well to enhance the backup. Something like Picasa which is made for photos or Dropbox which is a storage service with good photo organization as well as iOS apps.

  • I updated iPhoto but the app store still shows that red 1, how can I remove it?

    I updated iPhoto but the app store still shows that red 1, how can I remove it? I can't right click, i cant do anything to get rid of it.

    Nope that's not it, I always use that particular ID, but the @me.com portion of the Apple ID is missing when trying to download from the App Store on the Phone.
    It is grayed out inside the App Store app so I can't change it there and I already changed it in the settings.
    The entire Apple ID is fine in the Settings so I don't get why the App Store ID is different and missing information.

    Firstly, you need to change your details with Apple,  Start here, change your country if necessary and go to manage your account. You may have already done this.
    In order to change your Apple ID or password for your iCloud account on your iOS device, you need to delete the account from your iOS device first, then add it back using your updated details. (Settings > iCloud, scroll down and hit "Delete Account")
    Providing you are simply updating your existing details and not changing to another account, when you delete your account, all the data that is synced with iCloud will also be deleted from the device (but not from iCloud), but will be synced back to your device when you login again.
    In order to change your Apple ID or password for your iCloud account on your computer, you need to sign out of the account from your computer first, then sign back in using your updated details. (System Preferences > iCloud, click the sign out button)
    In order to change your Apple ID or password for your iTunes account on your iOS device, you need to sign out from your iOS device first, then sign back in using your updated details. (Settings > iTunes & App store, scroll down and tap your ID)
    If you are using iMessages or FaceTime, you will also need to log out and into your ID there too.

  • TS1702 after upgrading to ios 6 i can  no longer use the app store.

    after upgrading to ios 6 i can  no longer use the app store on my iPhone, i am unable to install new apps. i chose to fill out the security questions and the problem seems to occur since then. what could be a solution to get the app store working again??

    i just contacted apple support and the solution is the following!!!!!
    connect the iphone to your computer  and open itunes
    then click on itunes store at the left side of the screen
    then click at the right top side of your itunes screen on your email address (or id that is displayed there in the black bar)
    choose log out
    then go to the top of the screen with the search option in itunes where you can search in the store and choose an app that you have not yet installed.
    then you get the security questions also in itunes, fill the them out and after you have done that you are asked to log in again
    now when you install an app that works (it is then on your computer still)
    open the app store on your iphone and choose the updates button and install the app from the cloud
    now when you install new apps also from the app store on your iphone it works again!!! and you are no longer asked about the security questions
    (the other option they told me (that i did not have to use)  is: go to settings/general/ all the way at the bottom of the screen choose make new settings restore networksettings and choose yes)

  • I've installed Mavericks but it still shows up in the App Store as "Download"

    I've installed Mavericks several times - from the update section of the App Store to the Featured Section and even tried using cmd-r and a fresh install of the OS. Looks like it installed fine, but it still shows up in the App Store as to be downloaded and not installed.

    Spoke with Apple Customer Care. They said it was normal and allowed Mavericks to be downloaded on multiple machines. Looks like all went well.

  • The Music Icon App is not showing under use cellular data

    The Music Icon App is not showing under use cellular data.
    When I go to settings, cellular the Music Icon is not listed.  I cannot turn on use cellular data for itunes for my music in itunes match.  How do I get the icon listed there.
    Thank you.

    Hi crcalnan,
    There should be an entry in that section for iTunes, which includes both the iTunes Store and iTunes Match:
    Set when cellular data is used for apps and services. Go to Settings > Cellular, then turn cellular data on or off for any app that can use cellular data. If a setting is off, iPhone will use only Wi-Fi for that service. The iTunes settings include both iTunes Match and automatic downloads from the iTunes Store and the App Store.

    Why can't you use it? Do you get a warning? Does the application not launch? What happens? Answering these questions will help: FAQ: What information should I provide when asking a question on this forum?

    Thanks King_Penguin for taking time to read and reply. 
    I just purchased this movie on Thursday, May 15, so just a few days ago.  I have never had any trouble whatsoever since I have been in Vietnam.  I have downloaded several movies and even music and they have all synced to my respected Apple products except for this purchase. 
    Sorry, I don't quite understand what you mean by studios and different versions.  Could you please explain? 
    I checked my purchased list in my purchase history under my account and there are no hidden items. 

  • My MBP runs Yosemite but app store still shows it's to download

    I wonder why app store still shows Yosemite to "download" when it's installed?

    That's normal.
    It means you can download it again in case you want/need to installed again at a later time
    In my case, as i have two machines and I don't want to download the 5GB again, I didn't install right away, I first stowed the "Install Yosemite" application to an external disk and then installed from there. Now I can upgrade the second machine without downloading again

  • Updated my apps but still showing 3 up dates after 3 days

    up dated my apps but still showing need to up date

    Contrary to the misleading impressions given by the marketing copy on the Adobe webite, the new CC versions of the Cloud apps are not available until June 17 (Adobe time - probably San Jose - W Coast USA)
    Should arrive in the Cloud within the next 24 hours.

  • Selling Macbook- App Store still shows my app updates

    I'm selling my macbook pro and have signed out of the app store, but the app store still shows that 4 updates are available (for me, not for the new owner)- any way to 'reset' the app store on the mac?
    Everything else has been reset: itunes, user accounts, etc.

    Do yourself, and the buyer a favor and do the smart thing..erase the drive and reinstall the OS before selling it.
