IPad usage storage showing wrong amount

I have a brand new 16 g iPad with a few apps taking up a total of 1200mb of space. It is saying I have used 12g and have only 448 available.

How much space is used by your Other? You may be able to reduce.

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.

  • IPad 2 shows wrong amount of space.

    I have a wifi only iPad 2, and ever since I updated to iOS 4.3, the iPad has shown the wrong amount of space. This still happens even though I have updated to iOS 5.1. For instance, I want to record my guitar in GarageBand, but it says I don't have enough space to record. This is odd since I have 125 megabytes of space free. So, I go delete some photos and email. I look at the amount of space and it says I have 68.9 megabytes! This happens all the time and with various apps. When I sync the ipad with my Windows laptop, it also shows wrong amounts. There will also be small fluctuations such as 56.5 mb going to 52.8 mb. Can anyone help? Does anyone else have this problem? Help would be greatly appreciated.

    Have you tried rebooting the iPad - just to try to reset the system memory and maybe get a more accurate reading? It does appear though with only 125 MB of space left - you were really cutting it close.
    Reboot the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons.

  • About This Mac Storage shows wrong size

    Hello, the story so far
    Actions:
    - MBA early 2014 (128GB) maverick updated to yosemite in November 2014
    - fresh install of Yosemite via wifi in January 2015 - followed instructions as suggested here http://support.apple.com/kb/PH14243
    Consequences after fresh installation:
    - About This Mac > Storage shows total hard disk size 120GB, About This Mac > Storage shows 110GB
    - About This Mac > Storage shows approx 9GB of apps. The actual applications folder size is far, far, far less than 9GB as showed in Terminal.
    - About This Mac > Storage shows approx 1GB of data for videos, audio and photos. There are no photos, video, documents stored on MBA.
    For the records, no device data was sync after fresh installation and the trash is being emptied securely.
    I am new to MAC so I would be grateful if you could help me understanding why About This Mac > Storage is showing more data stored than Terminal and Finder and what I should do to rectify the discrepancy.
    Many thanks of your understanding and support.
    Cheers, puzzled_me

    Kappy, may thanks. No difference, Get Info for the folders returns same data size as About This Mac > Storage
    On a different note I have noticed that there are two Library folders under harddrive. See screenshot attached.
    System/Library (6.8GB) folder contains subfolders that are also contained under Library (2.7GB) folder.
    Could that be the problem?? Is that normal to have two Library folders??
    Thank you for your help.

  • Finder showing wrong amount of free space on Macintosh HD

    Hi!
    Does anyone know why Finder tells me that the amount of free space on my Mac is 46.53 GB while Disk Utility says there are only 31.89 GB of free space left?

    Just found the solution in another thread: the "problem" seems to be the local Time Machine Snapshots. Finder ignores them, Disk Utility doesn't.

  • In MIGO when I check the Quantity Tab - Amount in LC showing wrong amount

    Hi Gurus,
    I have a PO XXXX  (Network related) for amount 15.063, When I check the MIGO Document in quantity Tab - Amount in LC field has updated with huge amount close to 2 lakhs.
    Can you please tell me why this difference and one more thing PO, GR and IR are in INR Currency Only we are not using any other currency.

    Hi,
    Check whether PO Price has been changed after Goods Receipt. Check in ME22N -> Environment --> Header Changes OR select the PO line item and click menu Environment --> Item Changes.
    Also check if Delivery Cost/Freight Cost has been maintained in PO.

  • IPad video storage usage does not match what iTunes displays

    When viewing the storage usage for my iPad mini through iTunes, I noticed "Other" was at 19.45 GB. I thought this was a little strange since I am somewhat familiar with the type of data that is categorized under "Other". When I checked the storage usage through settings on the iPad itself I saw "Videos" was at 18.2 GB, however there are no Videos synced to my iPad. Also, when I check the "About" page in settings, again on my iPad, it shows there are 10 videos. Again, I have no actual Videos on my iPad. If I check the Videos app the only Videos that are displayed are the Videos that I have purchased, but they have not been downloaded to my iPad. ALL the videos within the Videos app have the cloud icon meaning they are available for download from iCloud.
    I am wondering if "Other" is so large because the iPad is saving space to stream these videos, which I have done quite a few times. Most of the time I will stream the videos purchased through the iTunes Store, instead of downloading them, to help save space.
    Here is a screenshot of my iPad's storage usage through iTunes. Notice there is no purple bar for videos, but "Other" is huge.
    This is a screenshot of the storage usage directly from my iPad. However, there are currently no videos synced to my iPad. The only videos in the Video app are displayed with the iCloud icon.

    I have noticed there is a difference between tapping the cloud icon and tapping the video itself. When I tap the video itself it begins to play, and seems to behave as if it is "streaming". Once the video is done or stopped playing the cloud icon remains. When I actually tap the cloud icon it begins to download, and once the download is complete the cloud icon disappears.
    After I read your response I had an idea and turned off Wi-Fi on my iPad. I then opened the Videos app and suddenly all the videos disappeared EXCEPT for the videos I have recently watched. These videos also play just fine. When I turn Wi-Fi back on, all the purchased videos return, including the ones that didn't disappear, but they ALL have the cloud icon again.
    Thank you for the information you provided! I have a better understanding of how these videos are stored now. If I am not mistaken, iTunes seems to think these are cached files, were the iPad sees them in a different way.
    As for your suggestion with "Manually manage music and videos", there seems to be some strange behaviour going on. I have been manually managing the content I sync to my iPad for some time, but this option was not checked when I look at the "Summary" page in iTunes. I checked the box and clicked on sync. Once it was done, I went to choose the music I wanted to sync to my iPad. The moment I check the box for "Sync Music" I get the message shown below. I click on "Remove and Sync", then select music to sync to my iPad. Once that sync is done I go back to the "Summary" page and the "Manually manage music and videos" check box is not checked anymore. I am not understanding this option correctly, or is there something strange going on?

  • My new iPhone 5 won't connect to iTunes, and when I connect to my computer it comes up as a usb storage device, also in the phone itself under usage it shows internal memory of 2gb and sd card 64 gb, is this an original iPhone or have I been sold a copy

    My new iphone 5 can not connect to itunes, it comes up as a usb storage device when I plug it in, also in the phone under settings/usage it shows internal memory of 2gb and SD card of 64gb, I cannot get it to connect to itunes at all so cannot sync etc, is this a genuine Iphone or a copy. I have owned 4 iphones and never had a problem with connecting to iphones and restoreing to a backup.

    According to http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IPhone_5
    the iPhone5 has 1GB of RAM, and internal storage of 16, 32, or 64GB.
    It does not use SD cards.
    Fake iphones are really Android phones using the skin of iOS6.
    Click on the App Store icon. If it takes you to Apple's App Store, then it's a real iPhone.
    But if you are directed to Google Play, then I'm afraid you've gotten a copy.

  • Why does my iPad store show wrong id

    In my settings, it shows the right Id.  When I go into store to get items or updates, it shows wrong id.   How do I fix this?

    If you purchased apps with a different Apple ID, you will always have to use that ID in order to update the apps.
    If that's not what is happening to you, I don't know what the device would be showing an ID that does not belong to you, unless somebody else used their ID on your iPad. Try swiping to the bottom of the app store featured tab and tap on the Apple ID that is showing in there. Sign out of that ID and sign into yours.

  • Ipad does not show usage times any more

    Hi, my ipad no longer shows the usage times of itself. It merely shows a '-' mark where usage and standby times are normally shown.
    This may have occurred after the ios6 update but I cannot be sure.
    Any ideas on what the problem is or how it can be fixed?
    Thanks
    Mike

    Hi guys,
    I've since fixed the problem.
    Martha I recommend that you download an app for battery charging so that it will tell you the percentage that the iPad is charged. Then charge the iPad fully and as it reaches 100% it should display 0 mins in both boxes.
    I did a restore prior to this but it did not seen to have any effect.
    I'm not even sure why the iPad went like this but mine has been fine since.
    Hope this helps
    Mike

  • Condition rate/Amount (KONV- KBETR) is showing wrongly for Japanse currency

    Dear Friends,
    The Table data for the Condition rate/Amount (KONV- KBETR) is showing wrongly for Japanse currency(JPY).For ex-The invoice is showing correctly as 3 JPY but the Invoice output shows 300 JPY.This data being fetched from the KBETR shows 300JPY instead of 3JPY.Pl help to resolve this.
    Thanks
    Isaac

    Dear Isaac,
    This may due to condition record maintainenance for that condition type in the VK11 transaction so please go to VK12 transaction check the condition value for that condition type.
    KBETR -- Means Rate (condition amount or percentage) where no scale exists, it exists in KONP table(Condition record table).
    Also Check anybody change the values in the sales order or in invoice from 300 to 3.
    I hope this will help you,
    Regards,
    Murali.

  • Iphone 6 showing wrong storage?!

    hello everyone, this problem began yesterday after synching.
    I Have a iPhone 6 128gb.
    when looking at my storage, I have used 49gb for music, and around 5BG for photos/apps/videos.  So, you can say in total I have consumed around 54gb, which should leave me with a healthy 60gb or so.
    my phone is saying I only have 9gb left?!
    IN iTunes the bar along the bottom which shows a breakdown of your storage shows over 50gb being used by 'other', when this is definitely not the case!!
    does anyone have any advise of what I can do?
    thanks!

    I've thought about ignoring the issue on iTunes, but on my phone General usage/storage says i only have 9gb left, and this is definitely incorrect.

  • TDS cerfitcte  not splitting tax amount  and base amount  showing wrong

    Hi Raj,
    SAP recommends a series of tables to be maintained, if you are configuring Witholding Tax.
    Please find below the reply from SAP on tables to be maintained.
    If you have separate tax codes for Surcharges, J_1IEWT_SURC table
    should be maintained, by setting the checkbox checked, for the company
    code. Those tax codes should be available the J_1IEWTSURC table
    (use SM30 to maintain these values)
    2. If you have a combined tax code for surcharges, then the tax rates
    should be maintained in J_1IEWT_SURC1 table.
    Make sure that tax codes available in J_1IEWT_SURC1 table are not
    available in J_1IEWTSURC table and vice-versa.
    3. If you are using separate tax codes for Education cess, those tax
    codes should be maintained in the J_1IEWTECESS table and 'X' should be
    maintained for the company code in J_1IEWT_ECFLAG table.
    4. If you are using combined tax codes for Education cess, tax rates
    should be maintained in J_1IEWT_ECESS1 table.
    Make sure that the tax codes available in J_1IEWT_ECESS1 table are not
    maintained in J_1IEWTECESS table and vice-versa.
    Maintain these tables and check whether you get the correct figures in your TDS certificate.
    Regards,
