IPhone says it is full when it is not

When I sync my phone, the bar at the bottom of the window says I have 1.42 gb of free space remaining, but whenever I try to add more music (even one song), it says that I don't have enough free space on my phone. On my phone settings>general>about, it says I have 361mb of free space. Any idea why I have three different possible amounts of free space (1.4gb, 361mb, or 0mb), and why it won't let me sync more music without deleting some, even though no matter how you cut it, there should be free space enough for one song?

Restore the device to clean up OTHER. If Other is still over 2 gbs after restoring, restore again as new.

Final cut pro x keeps on saying files are full when trying to export when their not ?

Hi
Final cut pro x keeps on saying files are full when i'm trying to export when they are not full and also what setting do i export them on for a small quicktime?

The preset that will give you the smallest file is email and you will have 3 choices of size. Not sure what you consider small, but also take a look at Apple Device.
Your error message is Files are Full or DIsk is Full? Will need more info about your system specs, the format of the clips you're using and your project settings.

TS4036 why does my iphone say it cant restore when 98 per done

why does my iphone say it cant restore when 98 per done

There's no way a 16GB model phone has more than than capacity. I have no idea what you mean by AutoRun icon. Is that an app you downloaded? Did you jailbreak?
The "advertised" capacity of all storage devices is based on a decimal definition of "Gigabytes" where 1 GB is defined as 1,000,000,000 bytes. However computers see and calculate storage based on binary definitions where 1 GB = 1,073 742,824 bytes. Thus a 16 GB "decimal" device is only 14.9 real, binary gigabytes.
Also, there are additional loses due to formatting overhead and the iOS. RAM memory is separate and not used from the supplied flash disk.

I am trying to restore my phone but everyone I go to do it, it goes to Update which takes 2 and a half hours, and everytime it fails. Ive tried four times now. I'm trying to restore because it says my memory is full, when it is not. I'm so frustrated.

I am trying to restore my phone, but when i go to do it on iTunes, it Updates to 4.3.3 however everytime the 2 and a half hour update finishes, it FAILS. So the update fails, and the restore fails. Its happened 4 ties.
Im trying to restore my phone, because it says my memory is full when its not and an online solution says to restore. I cant restore because it wont let me update.
Im so frustrated, i cant take any pictures, download any music or apps, and its really getting me down. Please can someone help.

This error generally indicates a hardware failure. Bring the phone to Apple for evaluation.

San Disk Flash card will says card is full when I try to import files

Hi I'm using a quadcore G5. I'm also using a roland spd-s drum sampleing pad that takes compact flash cards. I have a reader hooked up to my computer, and I'm trying to import wav files onto the card. I Imported a few but now it's saying the card is full, when the view options obviously state that there is 286.9 MB of free space. The File I'm tring to import is only 1000 KB. I tried to restart the computer and the same thing happens. Has anyone ever run into this? Any sugestions on what might be going on?
thank you for your time

I haven't seen this specific problem, but flash memory can be tempermental at times. I'd suggest moving everything off the flash card onto your hard drive. Then reformat the flash card with a MSDOS File System (FAT16) format using /Utilities/Disk Utility. After the drive is reformatted, try copying the files back to the flash disk.
If that doesn't work, there could be other issues at play. The file that you're trying to copy could be corrupt. The flash drive may be bad (either from the factory or it has reached the end of its read/rewrite lifespan). There could be something going on with the flash reader on the Roland box. You could borrow someone's USB flash card reader to test that.

My iphone 4s says it can't sync my itunes because its full when its actually not

hi, i am trying to sync my iphone 4s to my itunes (essentially new phone, new computer, old library) (my phone was synced to my old computer before this), but it won't work because it says it is too full. The bar along the bottom of itunes and the 'properties' section on my computer each say i have at least 14GB left on a 32GB phone, and my itunes library is about 16GB, therefore i should have enough room to sync to the library on this computer. i have even tried just adding a few artists but still it says it is too full with roughly the same amount of mb apparently required. i have allowed access to sync to this computer etc, i have removed all duplicates of songs (a leftover effect from syncing it to my old computer first i think), and the 'other' section is displaying as only small so shouldn't be clogging it up.
So i'm at a bit of a loss on how to get my phone synced (and put my new albumns on there).
Also, on what i think is a slightly seperate issue - when i originally synced to my old computer's itunes library it would show all my songs on my iphone, but over about 1/3 of them were greyed out and unplayable on my phone but not my computer? not sure if these are related?
If you can answer either or both of the questions i would be pretty blummin chuffed!
Thanks muchly!

Well i seem to have sorted this myself - i reset my phone back to its original settings and then used the back up on my computer to restore everything. so far all my songs appear to be there, i'm just chasing up where my Apps have gone!

ITunes 11.1.5 says my iPod Classic (160gb) full when it is not!

I want to say that after iTunes (11.1.3?) my iPod Classic (160gb) will not sync anymore.
I have recently updated iTunes to latest version of 11.1.5 with no luck!
In short, I am using Windows 7 and cannot get my iPod to sync anymore.
I keep getting the error message that my iPod is full and cannot be synced unless I clear some space...and when I say 'space' it wants
another 20gb free to just add a few new albums that I downloaded.
The problem is that I still have 15gb free and IT IS NOT FULL. With a full capacity of 148gb, I have used ~130gb. Even in the info bar it shows the correct usage of space on my iPod and shows that there IS free space.
None of it makes any sense and it is completely in error on behalf of Apple.
Also, I am no novice to PC's and have tried everything short of re-installing iTunes, which I refuse to do.
My current PC build is and has the latest software and hardware available and everything up-to-date.
Any help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
If you need anymore info from me then just let me know.
Many thanks

First of all, let's get a few things straight.
me too said:
I purposely created several different threads because I wasn't sure which discussion to enter in and it is my opinion that it fit into any of these categories.
Actually, you posted the same thing into the iPod Classic forum four times, and one additional thread in (if I recall correctly) the iTunes for Windows forum. That's impolite; at best it simply clutters up the forum with unnecessary threads, which can cause other people's valid posts to be missed in the mass; and at worst, you'll get responses to more than one of your threads which will confuse, not just you, but anyone trying to help you. I've seen it happen.
I'll ask again, please refrain from multiple posting.
me too said:
I am also aware that the "other" is my album art.
No it is not.
There is always a small amount of Other on an iPod, but large amounts of Other indicates data that has become corrupted and cannot be used by the iPod.
Your screenshot, which finally confirms the actual message you are getting, suggests that despite what you may believe, you are trying to Sync at lest 22GB of media to your iPod. One album in .wav form would only take up about 700MB, so you have to work out what else is set to Sync. Check the photos pane (just along from Summary) to make sure that there isn't an album of photos set to Sync. Also check the other panes as well, for Podcasts, videos etc. that you may not have realised are set to Sync.
If all else fails, start taking music off your iPod, so that this unknown media can be put on. That way, at least you will be able to see what is being put on that you didn't know about. Then, you can take that off and put back on only what you want.
Let me just make a final suggestion: your comment ...
"None of it makes any sense and it is completely in error on behalf of Apple."
... isn't going to help you in any way. Stop blaming Apple and look for the actual problem. Once you find the problem, and can therefore see the cause, then - if you must - you can blame someone.

There has to be some way to delete all thse trash or cache files, whatever they're called.
What is size of your Media Card ?
If this happening within Media Card then first do a Backup of your Media Card then format your Memory Card from within your Device Or using a PC. To format your Memory Card from within your device Go to Options > Device > Storage > On that Screen Press the Menu Key > Hit on Format .
In addition be sure that you have enabled Media Card Support , Homescreen > Options > Device > Storage > Be sure that Media Card Support is Marked or Ticked .
Try it and see if that help.

My ipod touch battery in the top right says it is full when the large icon in the middle of the screen says it is not full?

I plugged my ipod touch in to be charged because the battery is 20% and after a few minutes of charging it says on the right hand corner that it is full, but the large battery in the center of the screen says it is dead. Then I unplug it and it says the battery is 20%. How do I get it the charge?

- See:
iPod touch: Hardware troubleshooting
- Try another cable
- Try another charging source
- Inspect the dock connector for bend or missing contacts, corroded contacts, broken, missing or cracked plastic.
- Make an appointment at the Genus Bar of an Apple store.

OS X says boot disc full when it isn't - by a long way

I ran SuperDuper last night and the backup failed with an unknown error. After, Spotlight didn't find files. I rebooted and at the login screen was given the error message 'backup disc full, delete some files' - problem is, OS X won't boot beyond the starfield screen, so there's no way of deleting files or running the system. I took the drive out and put it in a USB caddy on another machine and ran Disk Utility - it said repairs were needed, so I did this. However, putting it back into the MBP nothing has changed, it still won't boot and insists the disc is full - there is over 180GB free! (I can see this when I mount it on another machine.) Ideas?!

Thanks guys.. This is sorted.. I guess i missed a right parenthesis in FROM
Cheers

Time Machine deleting backups, says disk is full when there's lots of space

I recently successfully duplicated the sparse disk image bundles for two computers to a 1TB drive. Time Machine has been working just fine for weeks with this new setup and was backing up normally.
Then I began getting "Disk is full" errors and Time Machine is saying it is deleting back ups to create more space. This is confusing as the disk says there is over 740 GB available -- our back ups are not even totaling 200 GB combined.
How can I remedy this?
Thank you.

Hank,
I realized last night, after I shut everything down for a tornado warning form Hanna - no tornado..., that the spaces in the disk name were your immediate problem.....sorry
In addition to dragging the file, you can also type '\' as an escape character before things like spaces to say treat them as part of the name not, as in the case of a space, as a separator.
In your latest error message the term 'socket' implies possibly a link to use of a wireless connection. I seemed to have no trouble using a wireless link to re-size yesterday. I was pointing to a USB drive attached to the TC, not the TC's internal disk. You'd think it wouldn't make a difference, but......
I didn't want to mess with the live sparsebundles on the TC drive, and had copies for experimentation on a USB drive on the TC.... But today I tried it on the TC's drive via wireless and it works.
You might try a direct connection via Ethernet cable if you can.
In addition hdiutil has a -verbose option which you can add to the command line that gives additional detail and may yield a clue to the problem. It also had a -debug option that provides even more voluminous output which the man page says is "- debug and -verbose generate almost entirely independent outputs."
The format is like this:
hdiutil resize -size nnnG -verbose /path...to..sparsebundle
The -verbose and/or -debug go after the resize verb.
The -debug output is truly humongous! Try -verbose first if you need the diagnostic output.
These might help us get you going.
