IPhone 4 - deleted images, after got low memory error msg rcvd, but available memory has not increased!!
I have an iPhone 4 16GB. Was recording a video the other day, and got this msg: "Warning: You are running out of disk space. Please delete some photos or videos". Ok, so I had like 5,000+ images in my "camera roll", don't have any other folders. ALOT were from the Internet, when I would hold down on an image, and pick "save image". So, using common sense, I went into camera, under camera roll, then hit arrow icon in bottom left corner, and proceeded to check mark images. Once I had a group, I'd hit delete. I did this several times, until I was left with only about 1/2 the amount of images, which was about 3,000. I rebooted my iphone. I then went into settings> general> about, and looked under available, which still showed only about 100MB available out of 14GB. How is this possible? Now, when I go into camera, the lense won't even open, and I keep getting the same error msg. Maybe 3,000 is still alot, but remember, I had almost 6,000 images before, with NO problems till just a few days ago. So, how do I get my iPhone available memory back, if already deleted images, as instructed???
You need to connect the iPhone to the computer and import those photos to the computer. Photos are not really supposed to be stored in the camera roll as it can cause problems, as you have already seen. Also, should the iPhone crash, you could lose all of the photos without having a backup of them. Once you have downloaded all the pictures, you should be able to go into Explorer and delete everything out of that folder. Then reset the iPhone and it should clear the memory. The iPhone is probably holding the memory because the Library hasn't updated. A sync would help as it tends to reset things. I've read of other issues with keeping too many photos in the camera roll and issues with saving from the Internet as well, however much of that was in earlier versions of iOS. I believe that has been corrected.
Once you have imported the photos and deleted them from the camera roll, you can sync them back through iTunes in the Photos tab if you want them on the phone.

While trying to setup a time capsule backup to my MyBookLive external drive, I got the following error message: The network backup disk does not support the required AFP features. What's up with this?
This means that your NAS does not support the required encryption. Update your NAS to the latest firmware or ditch it and buy a Time Capsule (they are the most reliable when using TM).

trying to restore from iTunes back onto iPhone 5 - it starts but then error msg comes up saying there is not enough space on the iPhone to complete the restore - what do I do? - Help cos I've lost my contacts!!!!!
If you're not a developer then you really should not have upgraded.
I'm unsure how you can fix this as you have already done a back-up on iOS 7 and apple don't support firmware downgrades. -
I upgraded to the iphone 4S yesterday, ive got my contacts-apps-music back but I've not been able to figure out how to get my ringtones back? I purchased many tones with my 3G I assumed they would go back on my new one with everything else..
The iPad is looking for a 4 digit passcode that you used to lock the device. Did you set a 4 digit code when you set up your iPad? You need to enter that code in order to unlock it. If you don't know the code, you will have to restore the iPad in order to unlock it.
Read this for more information.

I have been trying to download ios8. I dont remember exactly what happened but at some point I ended up unplugging my phone from my computer because there was an error. Every since then it has not been turning on or responding to iTunes.
When it does respond to iTunes it tells me that I have to restore my phone. I click restore and it says "Extracting Software". It gets all the way to the end and then says that there is an error; something about a disk being full?
I have no idea what is going on and I could really use some help.
Thanks.1. You did not get an error message telling you that your iPhoto library was getting full. You got a message telling you that your HD was getting full, right?
OS X needs about 10 gigs of hard drive space for normal OS operations - things like virtual memory, temporary files and so on.
Without this space your Mac will slow down as the OS hunts for space on the disk, files will be fragmented, also slowing things down, apps will crash and the risk of data corruption - that is damage to your files, photos, music - increases exponentially.
Your first priority is to make more space on that HD. Nothing else can be done until you do.
Purchase an external HD and move your Photos and Music to it. Both iPhoto and iTunes can run perfectly well with the Library on an external disk.
Your Library has been damaged from being run on an overfull disk.
How much free space on it now? -
I just restored my iPhone so i could get rid of my other data but all it did was increase my other data by .5 gbs. How do i get rid of the "other data"?

You will Not be able to get rid of it entirely...
Other is usually around 1 GB...
A ' Large Other ' usually indicates Corrupt Data...
First Try a Restore from Backup...
But... if the Large Other Persists, that is an Indicator of Corrupt Data in the Backup...
Then a Restore as New is the way to go...

I backed up my iphone 4 and did an upgrade and changed my Apple ID and password but my phone has not recognised the new ID to upgrade my apps via the iphone. How do I get rid of the old Apple ID when it comes to upgrading apps.
I have been into setting>store and signed out and signed back in and it still asks for old ID and password.Everything you've had up to now has been tied to your old Apple ID. You cannot switch it over to a new Apple ID. You should contact iTunes support to help you with this:

Passbook is not working on my iPhone 4S. I tried changing the date to 2013, but it's still not working. Does anyone know how to fix this?

When I sync my iphone with Windows 7, the contact moves to my computer, but the contact is not complete. No phone numbers. What am I doing wrong? I have also tried sync-ing with Yahoo, and that doesn't work either.
The music sync is one way - computer to iphone. The only exception is itunes purchases. File>Transfer Purchases
It has always been very basic to always maintain a backup copy of your computer for just such an occasion. Use your backup copy to move everything to your new computer. -
Am running Firefox 7.0.1 now. Normal memory usage is 157mb but when running Facebook (not running apps nor games), it goes up to 553mb Why?
I encountered the same type of problem. Firefox running terribly slowly and slowing down my entire machine (Core i5 with 256GB SSD). Searching the forums, I found a couple of things about troubleshooting performance issues, one of which was to use '''hardware acceleration''', that is on by default. It was turned on on my PC, '''so I tried deactivating it, and it worked!'''
So doing the exact opposite as Mozilla support said solved the problem. It is really a pain now to work with Firefox. I'm using it because I have no choice, but I'd recommend IE and Chrome over Firefox... Whatever, the market will decide once Firefox has become to crappy...
