Ipod has very little space despite the fact there are only 647 songs

I have a 6GB iPod mini with 647 songs. My file shows that almost all of my memory is gone. I recently used the hard drive function to move my iTunes from one computer to another. Would this effect how much memory I have on my iPod? If so, how can I remove this extra stuff (the stuff tranfered through the hard drive option)?
Thank you.
David

not sure what you mean.
I use iTunes exclusively. Before I moved the files from one computer to another, there was plenty of room. Now there is not. I assume this has something to do with storing the files on the iPod as a harddrive.

Ipod Shuffle say's its half full when there are only 11 song's on it.help..

Ok i hav a 512mb ipod shuffle i was putting song's on for a friend then i quickly did my ipod after (same thing 512mb shuffle) what happen when i put my friend's in it came up with all my song's an after wen i removed all my songs it said his ipod was half full sumthing like 256mb already used but i no this isent right..so please help me sum1

mrf_1989,
Are the songs you put on your firend's shuffle the same as the ones you tried to put on yours?
If not, then maybe you need to check the file format of the songs you tried to put on yours. If for some reason they are WAV files, this is your problem because WAV files are massive (~20-50MB each!)
If you find that they are WAV files, I'm sure you can google or ask someone with more knowledge than me how you can convert them back to mp3's.
If your WAV file songs were imported, you can just delete them and re-import them again but IMPORTANT:
Click edit>preferences>advanced>importing> and make sure the box next to 'import using' is NOT WAV encoder, but either mp3 or ACC.
Hope this helps!

My 4 gb ipod Nano is full yet there are only 20 songs on it. In summary, it just says "other" is taking up the space. Was fine one day and the next I got this. Help?

Have had problems since downloading iTunes 10. First it moved all my iTunes music files to another location. Next, I lost all my songs on my iPod. I went to replace the music to the iPod that I'd lost, but it only allows me to add about 20 songs (on a 4gb Nano) then says disk is full. In the Summary on the iPod, "other" is taking up all the remaining space. I have no videos, pictures, or anything else on the iPod. How do I free up that "used" space? Please help? And Thanks!

Make an appointment at the genius bar.
If you went without an appointment, then it would make sense that you could be turned away.

Now Airport Utility says it can't see my devices (Time Capsule and Airport Express,) despite the fact they are working fine.

Any thoughts?

AirPort base station not seen or "An unexpected error occurred" appears in AirPort Utility 6.3:
This can happen if IPv6 has been disabled. To enable IPv6 for your network interface:
Choose Apple menu () > System Preferences, and then click Network.
If a lock icon appears in the lower-left corner, click it and enter your admin name and password to unlock the pane.
Click your network service (Wi-Fi or Ethernet) in the list, and then click Advanced.
Click the TCP/IP tab.
Choose Link-local only from the Configure IPv6 pop-up menu.
Click OK.
Click Apply.
The AirPort device should now appear in AirPort Utility.

A website says I need to enable cookies despite the fact they are already enabled

I attempt to log into the following website:

and after I fill in my information and click on the login button, it says I need to enable cookies although I already have cookies enabled and I have even specifically allowed this website in the cookie settings. Has anyone else had this problem with other websites and if so, how did you fix it?

It's not you. The page is malformed. See http://validator.w3.org/check?uri=www.mgmmiragemomentum.com&charset=%28detect+au tomatically%29&doctype=Inline&group=0 which indicates the errors. Also, I suspect bad java scripts. You need to contact the site's webmaster. They're using java scripts that fails for the latest versions of Safari and FireFox. Especially frustrating for Mac users who work for them.

My ipod Video won't switch on and always displays the message, "Please Wait Very Little Battery" despite being plugged into the charger.

Dear Apple Support Communities,
I am writing to inform you I have had my iPod for about 6 years now and it has slowly got to the stage where it no longer turns on. My iPod began freezing every now and then (for a few seconds now) and then this problem escalated to the stage where it began to freeze for days. I am now at the stage where it doesn't switch on at all, in fact everytime I try to switch on my iPod the following message appears on the screen, 'Please Wait, Very Little Battery' despite the fact that the iPod is currently being charged. I haven't used my iPod for months and was wondering if this promblem can be fixed or am I entitled to any upgrades.

Did you try to let it connected to USB for charging for a while before asking it anything. When the battery is deeply drained, it can occur that the iPod displays nothing for half an hour, just charging.
Also, make sure your PC gives sufficient power to the iPod for charging, I let mine once for six hours charging on my work's pc, and it didn't display "charged" message even after the 6H charge.
When an USB device is requiring more power than it can receive from the plug it is in, MacOSX advices it to user, It seems that Windows doesn't.

How come my macbook air has so little space. I deleted everything that I don't need and everything that has the most space I'm told NOT to delete. Everything I find is in either KB or very low MB.

What is "Other" and What Can I Do About It?

Your Solid State Drive and having enough space inside your Macbook Air & Pro
Solid State Drive usage premise, or the “more space / upgrade SSD” question
There have been questions posed and positions taken by many people who are trying to use their Macbook Air or Pro’s solid state drive (SSD) as a mass media storage device, for either pictures, videos, massive music collections or all three combined; but this should not be the working premise of a ‘limited’ SSD and its use.
In which, it’s the case of those users with either 128GB, 256GB, or even 512GB of internal SSD space, that have or are running “out of space”, that questions are raised. The immediate premise of some users can sometimes be “(how to / if) upgrading my SSD” when in fact in nearly all instances another approach is the logical and sensible one that needs to be looked into and exercised.
Any Macbook containing a SSD should be idealized as a ‘working platform’ notebook containing all your applications, documents, and weekly or bi-weekly necessary files. All collections of media files such as pictures, music, and videos, unless directly needed should be kept off the notebook and on an external hard drive or likewise. While the ‘working platform’ premise is also the case with larger internal conventional hard drives of 1TB+, its implementation isn't as critical except in terms of data protection.
Realistically, you should at most coordinate roughly 20 to 25% of your total SSD space to all audio-video personal use media (picture / music / video collections), leaving the remaining amount on an external HD.
Nobody should consider any notebook a data storage device at any time under any circumstance, rather a data creation, sending, and manipulation device; and in the case of a SSD, this is more important for purposes of having sufficient working space on the SSD and reducing SSD ‘bloat’ in which cases someone is wrongly attempting to use the SSD space as a large media storage nexus.
The rare exception to the collective usage and premise of SSD use in which a much larger SSD is truly needed are for those in video and photography professions that require both the extremely fast speeds of the SSD and the onboard storage for large and or many video and photography files. However this also falls under the premise of a ‘working platform’ for such peoples rather than the intent of many who are using the SSD as passive and static data storage for media files very infrequently needed or accessed.
All on-notebook data collections should be logically approached as to necessity, and evaluated as to whether it is active or passive data that likely doesn’t need to be on the notebook, allocations of space-percentages to as-needed work and use, apportioning space for your entertainment media, and questioning whether it should it be on the notebook for more than short-term consumption.
Considerations should be made in the mind of any user in differentiating the necessary system data (System hub) comprising the Mac OSX, applications, necessary documents that both must and should be on your internal SSD, and that of the users personal data (Data hub) comprising created files, pictures, music, videos, PDF files, data created or being created and otherwise, that likely unless being used soon or often should be parked on an external hard drive for consumption, or temporarily loading onto the internal SSD.
You both can and should purchase whichever SSD size you need or see fit, but even in the case of the largest of SSD, unless use-considerations are made, and SSD spaces are allocated as should be the case indicated above, one can easily and immediately run into this quandary of “needing more internal SSD space”, in which instance a different approach in usage must then be implemented.
However it is almost always the case, that such large media files are wanted to be stored internally rather than actually needed, in which case the external HD is both prudent as well as necessary. Additionally costs per MB are infinitely less on an external HD than an internal SSD in any consideration of data expansion needs.
A Professional Example
In the case of a Macbook Air or Macbook Pro Retina with ‘limited’ storage on the SSD, this distinction becomes more important in that in an ever rapidly increasing file-size world, you keep vital large media files, pics, video, PDF collections, music off your SSD and archived on external storage, for sake of the necessary room for your system to have free space to operate, store future applications and general workspace.
You should also never be put in the position of considering “deleting things” on your Macbook SSD in order to ‘make space’. This is especially what your external HD is for.
Professionals who create and import very large amounts of data have almost no change in the available space on their notebooks internal SSD because they are constantly archiving data to arrays of external or networked HD.
Or in the case of the consumer this means you keep folders for large imported or created data and you ritually offload and archive this data for safekeeping, not only to safeguard the data in case your Macbook has a SSD crash, or gets stolen, but importantly in keeping the ‘breathing room’ open for your notebook to operate, expand, create files, add applications, for your APPS to create temp files, and for general operation.
Slim USB3 1TB external hard drive
External Hard Drives
External hard drives are both extremely cheap and regardless of the size of your internal SSD (or even internal hard drive if the case), you need an external hard drive with your SSD equipped Macbook for several reasons:
1. Data backup and protection.
2. Redundancy for important data.
3. Necessitated ideal space for large media files for collections of pictures, videos, and music etc.
While ever changing in price, typical portable 2.5” external hard drives in USB3 run roughly $65 for 1TB or $120 for 2TB small portable USB3 hard drives. Such drives range in thickness between 5mm and 15mm, with recent improvements in storage of 500GB drives in 5mm profiles.
There is almost no premise in which a small 12mm thick 1 Terabyte USB hard drive cannot be taken along with any Macbook as an external large storage extension inside any Macbook carry case or pouch. Typically such external HD profiles are not much bigger than a deck of cards.
External hard drives are a foregone necessity for purchase with any Macbook for at the very least Time Machine backups, data redundancies, and ideally for large media storage.

I have very little space left on the hard drive on my macbook, on my storage report it says "other" is taking up more than two thirds of the space on the hardrive. How can I identify what these files are?

Hello,
There is free software you can download that gives you a graphical image of what files are used on your hard drive. http://www.derlien.com/

13" late 2011 MacBook Pro has frozen after Yosemite installation. I can, however, boot from a clone of my MacBook Air that is on an external drive. Despite the fact that I can boot from the external, could it be the RAM that's the prob

My daughter's 13" late 2011 MacBook Pro has frozen (null sign displays) after Yosemite installation. I can, however, boot from a clone of my MacBook Air that is on an external drive. I reinstalled Yosemite on the MBP HD, but it still hangs in mid install. Despite the fact that I can boot from the external, could it be the RAM that's the problem? I'd happily put 8 GB in if it seems probable that would solve the problem. I've tried all the suggested procedures that I've seen posted here. Disk Utility, and my older version of DiskWarrior indicate the HD is OK. I have DiskWarrior 5 on order.

Boot the MBP with the OPTION key down. If successful, you should see two HDD icons, Select the recovery partition (on the right).
From the 4 option menu select Disk Utility.
Run Disk Utility>First Aid, Verify and Repair.
If the disk cannot be repaired, it will have to be replaced.
Ciao.

I now have 5 off occurrences listed as being open despite the fact that they were all created on 2 off laptops, neither of which has now got itunes activated

I now have 5 off occurrences of itunes listed as being open despite the fact that they were all created on 2 off laptops, neither of which has now got itunes activated. I now cannot activate itunes on either. The suggestion is that I cancel itnues activation on either which is rather difficult, obviously? Is there another way to access/ activate itunes?

Now fixed by de-authorising computer online at Itunes store...

This code executes normally in VS2014, despite the fact that an inline member function is not defined in every TU in which it is odr-used.

Consider this code:
header.h:
#include <iostream>
class A{
int i;
public:
A() : i(101) {}
void print();
void g(A&);
cpp1:
#include "header.h"
inline void A::print() { std::cout << i << '\n'; }
int main()
A a;
a.print();
g(a);
cpp2:
#include "header.h"
void g(A& a) { a.print(); }
Note that the member function A::print is defined outside its class with the specifier inline. The code executes normally in VS2014, despite the fact that the member function is odr-used in cpp2, but it is not defined in this file.
I found the following quotes from the C++11 Standard:
9.3/3:
An inline member function (whether static or non-static) may also be defined outside of its class definition provided either its declaration in the class definition or its definition outside of the class definition declares the function as inline.
3.2/3:
An inline function shall be defined in every translation unit in which it is odr-used.
7.1.2/4:
An inline function shall be defined in every translation unit in which it is odr-used and shall have exactly the same definition in every case.
The two last quotes above don't speak exactly about a member function but I believe they should be applied in this case too, as the inline specifier is a hint for the compiler to expand the function inline at the point of call. If we assume the compiler
does this inline expansion, how does it know the definition of the member function, while compiling the cpp2 file?

Frankly I don't understand your statement above. What would be the difficulty for any compiler*that is already compliant with 3.2/3 and 7.1.2/4*, to adapt its code, so that each call to an inline function in a TU, which doesn't carry the function
definition, is simply not inlined?
That's the easy part. The "there's identical function definition in every .obj file, and the linker is expected to merge them all together" is the hard part. Normally, if you define a regular (non-inline) function in more than one source
file, you get a linker error. Microsoft's linker has a special way to mark "defined more than once, just pick any copy" block of code (see __declspec(selectany) ). Other linkers may not.
