IPhone Free Space after iOS7 installation

After installing iOS7, I now have approximately 1 GB more free space than with iOS6.  Everything (apps, songs, photos, etc.) is still on my iPhone 4.  Does anyone know  if iOS7 is smaller than iOS6..............or did I just have a lot of "junk" on my device that is not needed by iOS7 ?
Thanks is advance for any feedback.

Hi Diesel vdub
I tried all of the troubleshooting basics like factory reset and restore from backup and treat as new phone.
The phone is still crashing even with icloud off.
I called Apple support this morning, and kind of persisted on a downgrade for iphone4. After 45 minutes and repeating my issue over and over they said they cannot help me further, because downgrading is not possible after september 22, since my iphone4 is older than 2 years it's out of guarantee support.
I finally talked to the Apple commercial support center in Ireland, they admitted that they cannot help me from a technical point of view. At least one of the guys promised me to call back this afternoon on a possible solution which will probably a commercial one
Let's see how Apple solves this issue.
Best regards

  • Not enough "free space" after backup to restore iPhone5s.

    Cannot restore iphone 5s after backing up...it says that there's not enough free space in itunes. Help please.

    Sounds like you just need to clear some stuff off of your computer.
    Go to your start menu then "control panel" then click "add/remove programs" and go through that list and remove any programs you dont need/use.
    Then if you have tons of video/music/files of any sort that you dont need, delete those.
    Check everywhere, i recently found 2gb of video clips that i thought i had deleted.
    Try that and maybe itll help

  • More free space after iOS 5 upgrade!.

    I actually have 2.5 Gb more free space on my 32Gb iPhone 4 after the iOS5 upgrade.  Is this possible?

    I am also lost.  I upgraded itunes and ios5 on my iPhone4.  Now I have a gray slate screen on my IP4 that just says iPhone, and I am being asked to configure my device.  I cannot receive phone calls.  They go directly to voice mail, and I cannot make phone calls.  I have tried "everything".  Even with it "looking like" a backup/restore may be in process, it does not backup or restore.  I have no device, no music, no contacts, no pictures.  Can anyone help? Please....

  • Lion takes long time to find free space after emptying trash

    After emptying the trash, I've noticed that Lion does not see the additional free space until after doing a reboot, and even after that it takes a long time for it to find all the new free space.  Anybody know what's wrong with the trash system?

    Absolutely nothing is wrong with it.  See Missing disk space in Lion.

  • After 10.9.4 upgrade, can't recover free space after deleting files

    After upgrading to 10.9.4, I decided to backup about 250 Go of films on an external drive, and then I deleted the originals ones on my MacBook Pro. The files disappear, but the free space stayed the same: more than 250 Go of free space couldn't be recovered !!
    I generally use the program "Cocktail" to maintain the mac; but in that case, no solution.
    I decided to look for the films on the disk, on temp folders and with Spotlight. And I found them ! In the folder: Volumes/HardiskName/.cleverfiles/hlink.ref/
    I deleted them directly in the trash and ... I recovered my 250 Go of free space.

    That folder is created by the third-party application "Disk Drill." If you don't like what it does, remove it according to the developer's instructions. "Cocktail" is worthless and should be removed in any case.

  • Finder doesn't show free space after trashing.

    Hi,
    I would like to know Finder can show again free space ? I had a huge file that I putted in my trash. However after emptying the trash I didn't recover the disk space and I have still few free space... I wonder if there any solution to show that space again. So far I tried to shut down and restart, and also repair disk permission through disk utility. Unfortunately I have been unlucky till now.
    Thanks for the further hints.

    Hi G,
    Try to boot in Single User Mode (hold CMD+S right after Power button) and follow instructions on screen for fsck and mount, redo the fsck and exit.
    After that login and using you /Applications/Utilities/Terminal check folders size in general using du. Change work directory to the root (cd /) and use the command line "du -h -d1".
    You will get some clue about, you can change the depth using -d2, -d3 and on. You can change the work directory using cd /Path/to/Folder and use the du -h -d1 (or other depth).
    If you find the 100GB folder drop a line.
    Good luck.
    Also you will like to use the "sudo du -h -d1 -x" as without sudo some directories are not included and without -x the task is interrupted traversing mounting points in /dev

  • Lost free space after an "Erase Free Space" procedure

    I just ran the "Erase Free Space" application from the Dick Utility. The erase failed and now I have ZERO free space available. I am now showing that all 111g or used oposed to roughly 50% prior to the Erase Free Space. I have found a few articles trying to explain what to do but, I have been unable to locate the empty temp files that we created during the Erase Free Space, so I have been told. Can anyone help me resolve this solution and restore my free space?
    Thank you,
    Shannon

    WhatSize should be able to find the temporary files

    You could try the Erase Free Space from Disk Utility on the install DVD. It might delete the files when it finishes.

  • Can't get free space after deleting a file-sparse bundle disk image

    I have a 150 GB Sparse bundle Disk image with a 256 AES enc. I just deleted about 30 GB worth of tv shows to free up some space but the Disk Image is still the same size with no more free space on the virtual disk either. I know that with Filevault the user has to log out in order to recover free disk space but how does this work with a normal Sparse disk image? Thanks in advance!
    -Macguy3000

    IIRC, sparse images only grow as things are added, but do not shrink. Create a new one, mount the original, transfer your stuff from the original into the new one, and delete the original one.

  • Help, losing hard drive free space after removing A3

    This one has me scratching my head.
    I've been through all the insanity of trying to get A3 up and running and have decided to give up until Apple gets their act together.
    So I restored my startup drive from a SuperDuper back-up (pre A3) that does have A2 on it. All my A2 libraries, vaults and original RAWS reside on separate drives. Normally this leaves me with 390 +/_ GB of free space on my startup drive. However over the past 2 days since restoring to my pre A3 state I've noticed background drive activity (Activity Monitor shows kernel_task/root making consistent writes to the drive) and my free space has been gradually declining to where it is now shown at 328 GB.
    I did a fresh install of OS10.6.2 and have run directory rebuilds, repaired permissions and Spotlight turned off.
    It's almost as if A3 were still trying to do it's drive eating thing (technical term).
    Can anyone enlighten me about what may be happening?
    Thanks!
    Bob

    This happened to me as well.
    TechTool actually crashed a hard drive big time by filling it to the brim with daily backup files.
    It is supposed to keep only the 5 most current and delete them oldest first.
    I disabled the backup function (TechTool Protection) which is found in the OS X System Prefs.

  • IPhone 4 corrupt after half installation of iOS6

    Hi all and thank you for your help. (I'm writing on behalf of my Dad.)
    I am not sure what the sequence of events are, but here follows what has happened.
    I think he noticed the available update and chose to update. During the installation something must have gone totally wrong. The result is that we are sitting with an iPhone that does not do anything at all. I cannot even switch it off. (There is no slider.) I just hold in the power button for a couple of seconds and that takes care of switching it off. I managed to put in into restore mode though. Unfortunately I don't have any luck with restoring the phone. I get Error 21. I have done every little thing to make sure I follow all suggestions to the iota to make sure that nothing can prevent a successful restore. I have even uninstalled my anti-virus software and re-booted a couple of times.
    Symptomes at the moment are that while being plugged in, untethered, the Apple logo appears and then goes away after a couple of seconds and then re-appears after a couple of seconds. I have really tried everything I could find on Error 21. When connected to iTunes in restore mode, the cable to iTunes does show.
    Is there a way I can "format" this phone or do something to get it up and running again?
    I will appreciate all the help[ I can get. Thank you.
    Deon

    Take a look at this Apple doc -> iTunes: Specific update-and-restore error messages and advanced troubleshooting
    Error 20, 21, 23, 26, 28, 29, 34, 37
    These errors typically occur when security software interferes with the restore and update process. Follow Troubleshooting security software issues to resolve this issue. In rare cases, these errors may be a hardware issue. If the errors persist on another computer, the device may need service.
    Try placing the iPhone into recovery mode, then uninstalling the security software on your computer, and then trying to restore the iPhone again. You can reinstall the security software and make sure it's working with iTunes after getting your iPhone sorted.

  • HT4528 iphone 5 freeze after ios7 upgrade

    after upgrading my iphone 5 to ios7, and having battery drop below 20%, I am unable to swipe the phone open.  Sometimes asking Siri to do it works, but sometimes not.

    So i had this problem also but my camera worked fine for 2 years. I took it to a store to get a new battery put in and the front camera stopped working.
    The repair guy said its a software issue since the camera isnt linked or close to the batter.
    I tried EVERYTHING. Reset my phone several times. Delete everything. Tried different apps. Just everything.
    Ended up taking it back and asking the guy to change the camera and see if it works.
    What he did do was take my camera out and put it back in.
    Didnt even need to pay for a new one
    This worked for me. And trust me i tried EVERY suggestion on this thread and several others.

  • Missing Free Space After Cleaning Up

    I connected my new iMac Intel to my old iMac G3 (still running OS X 10.2.8) via FireWire to transfer some of my files. Well, I deleted my Music folder (that had around 10gig) from the G3 through the iMac Intel.... well, I'm not sure if I'm being clear.... what I'm trying to say is that I was using the G3 as an external driver for the iMac Intel, when I dragged the G3 music folder to the Intel's Trash...
    Anyway, after I turned the G3 on again, the music folder was naturally gone, but my available space in the hard disk was still the same as before...
    I used the WhatSize software and it said in the total that 30 Gb were being used.... but I manually added all the folders sizes it shows me and the amount is 20Gig.
    Where has my 10gig gone?!

    When I deleted the folder from the G3 it went to the Intel trash, that was later emptied.... but the G3 says i'm still using that space...

  • Why isn't iWork apps not free yet after IOS7 update ?

    Apple did say that IWork would be free, but it is not free as IMovie still has the original price, is it for certen devises or is there a problem on the store?

    The advertisements leading up to the release of iOS 7 let me to believe that I work would be free for everybody. Apparently that is not the case. I was a little disappointed to find out but now it is only free for new devices activated after September 1 however upon looking at the reviews and how horrible they are I'm  not disappointed at all in fact you couldn't pay me to use iWork so thanks but no thanks Apple once again.

  • Iphone speaker problem after ios7 update

    After i updated to ios7 on my 4s the right speaker stopped working instantly. Anyone else have thuis problem? And how can it be fixed?

    Perform a "hard reset" on the device by pressing down and holding the home button and the sleep/wake button for up to 30secs. until you see a black screen with the Apple logo, then release.
    Then test to see if it solved the problem.

  • Disk not showing free space after deleting files?

    Hi there. I'm running Mountain Lion 10.8.2. I deleted about 20GB worth of data from my hard drive but when I go into activity monitor and click on disk usage it doesn't show an extra 20GB of space. I did this 2 days ago. Is there something wrong with my hard drive? There is nothing in the trash and I have restarted my laptop twice now. Also, I use Daisy Disk to show my usage and it says the same thing as activity monitor. Thanks in advance!

    “You may notice a difference in available space statistics between Disk Utility, Finder, and Get Info inspectors. This is expected and can be safely ignored. The Finder displays the available space on the disk without accounting for the local snapshots, because local snapshots will surrender their disk space if needed."
