IPad air memory amount
Hi,
I just got the iPad air. I got the 128GB AT&T version. Under setting/general/about the Capacity says 115GB. What gives? I checked my ipad3 and it says 57GB which is the correct amount of storage space on my iPad3. Both devices are running IOS7.
Thanks,
John
Space taken by IOS 7 and pre-installed apps.

Ipad air keep crashing + low on memory
Hi, ive noticed that my iPad Air keeps crashing in ordinary use. Really often Safari crashes,when many (3-6) tabs are open. Ive noticed too that device is running low on memory. My iPhone 5 never crashes and has over 170mb more RAM free when idle.
I have some print screens to show you what is the situation here.

Then I open six (6) popular tabs in Safari witch I use in everyday basics,on both devices.

Then I check the memory in both devices and this happens.

So,the ipad memory is nearly empty when only using safari with few basic websites. Normally Im using same time also Spotify with airplay and check youtube videos etc. Then the Safari starts to reload tabs and usually apps starting to crash randomly.. This is frustraiding.
So, conclusion. When I started this test I rebooted both devices,then let then be idle for 5-10mins. Both devices use "Sys Status" software to check memory.
MEMORY ON IDLE:
iPhone 5 = 586mb
iPad Air = 416mb
MEMORY UNDER STRESS (Six tabs open in Safari)
iPhone 5 = 451mb
iPad Air = 145mb
So the iPhone 5 memory drops 135mb and the iPad Air memory drops 271mb ! Whys that ??
With this test,its obviously clear that iPad air has bad memory problems. Maybe the software update can fix this ? Or should I go to the dealer and change the device to new ?See this topic in

According to iTunes I am using approximately 20.35GB of the available 27.32GM of memory, leaving about 7GB free. Of the used memory, about 7.9GB is labeled "OTHER". Making the same measurement on my iPad Air, only 3.9GB is labeled "OTHER". Why am I loosing so much memory capacity and what do I do to mitigate this problem?
This is having a significant effect on using my iPhone for recording Video interviews which in some cases constitute two to three hours of video. I need to be able togged the "OTHER" memory space so I can do more than one video recording during a session. Lowering the "OTHER" category to 3.9GB, the same as the iPad Air, would make it possible to record two or in some cases three videos before having to offload them to the MacBook Pro for editing in the evening.Charliebear88 wrote:

No, it's not, if you would actually read the linked information like I said. There is plenty of information in this link about how to reduce or eliminate your 'Other' data without using third-party programs or procedures:

Specific part number or decription/name of adapter required to use my iPad Air to a PNY High Performance 64GB High Speed microSDXC Class 10 UHS-1 up to 40MB/sec Flash Memory Card -P-SDUX64U1-GE-A

For example, Real Racing 3 takes 1.5 GB in my iPod Touch 5G. But it takes the same in the iPad Air / Retina iPad mini?
I think you didn't understand. I meant the size that takes from the flash memory. I hava an iPod Touch 5G and the app was 1.4GB the day that was release.

How to Remove “Other” Data from iPhone, iPad and iPod Touch
http://www.igeeksblog.com/how-to-remove-other-data-from-iphone/
With an iOS device, the “Other” space in iTunes is used to store things like documents, settings, caches, and a few other important items. If you sync lots of documents to apps like GoodReader, DropCopy, or anything else that reads external files, your storage use can skyrocket. With iOS 5/6/7, you can see exactly which applications are taking up the most space. Just head to Settings > General > Usage, and tap the button labeled Show All Apps. The storage section will show you the app and how much storage space it is taking up. Tap on the app name to get a description of the additional storage space being used by the app’s documents and data. You can remove the storage-hogging application and all of its data directly from this screen, or manually remove the data by opening the app. Some applications, especially those designed by Apple, will allow you to remove stored data by swiping from left to right on the item to reveal a Delete button.

what are the Processor, Operating system, hard drive device, Total Memory, Network card, System Graphics of the Silver ipad air?
"Memory" in this case means RAM, the working space for the processor in the iPad. It is different from storage space, the latter being what is referred to by the "32GB", "64GB" etc. specification.

I am trying to open autocad files on my new iPad air 64mb, I have loaded autocad 360, every time in open the file I get a message that I'm out of memory can some one help
Quit all other open apps then reset the iPad and try again.
Double click the Home button to show the screen with running and recently used apps. Each app icon will have a sample page above it. Flick up on the page (not the app icon) and the page will fly away and the app icon will disappear. This quits that app. Then reset your device. Press and hold the Home and Sleep buttons simultaneously until the Apple logo appears. Let go of the buttons and let the device restart.
If that doesn't help I would delete the app and download a fresh copy. Be sure you save the file somewhere other than in the app when you do this. -
Just for the future on the ipad air there seems to be a white screen glitch after a certain amount of use. This needs to be fixed thanks
You are not talking to Apple here. We are all users trying to help one another solve issues with their iPads.
I have an iPad Air and have never experienced something that I would call a " white screen glitch."
Please explain exactly what is happening on your iPad, what you might have tried to fix it and what, if any, error messages you receive. -
IPad Air crashes with low memory error in Google Translate Web Site
My new iPad Air crashes with low memory error every time I try to use my Phrasebook in Google Translate Web site. This is rather disapointing considering that my old Nexus 10, that iPad Air is supposed to replace, works flawlessly in Google Translate Web site. Perhaps this has to do with the rather limited RAM (1GB) that iPad Air is equippoed with.
I would appreciate any recommendation, Thanks in advance.See this topic in

Not the iPad itself.
There are some wireless external hard drives that can be used with the iPad.

I tested them side-by-side in Apple Store today and after the same 10 apps loaded, I didn't feel significant speed gain from iPad Air and iPad Mini with Retina Display from my New iPad.
I wonder what Processing Speed and Built-in Memory do the iPad Air and the iPad Mini with Retina Display have.
Can someone who has upgraded give any feedback?Thanks Diavonex.
