Lost 500mb of space after syncing ipod touch 4g

hello guys. i synced my ipod touch 4g yesterday to remove a single photo. my ipod has no songs, videos or anything else. after syncing, i was notified that i have a little space left (the one which asks you to go to settings or something, i forgot.) i got 600+mb b efore and i have 100 after. can i still take it back? it has only 8gb. i checked the other with phonecleaner and after cleaning, it doesnt reduce the "other" space. is there anything i can do with it? because my ipod has only 8gb of storage and every little bit of space help. thanks and sorry for my bad english

OTHER
Connect the iPod to your computer and look at the storage used by the various categories as shown in the colored bargarph in iTunes.
Come back with the results.
An "other" larger than about 1 1/2 GB indicates corrupted files.

Next, usually restoring from backup eliminated the corrupted files. However, sometimes restoring to factory settings/new iPod is required.

  • Where did my photos go after syncing iPod touch?

    I just downloaded a software update for my ipod touch and after it was done syncing, the photos were gone. I found the ipod touch photo folder but there were no pictures in it.  Where did they go and how do I get them back?  Thanks!

    Photos were taken from the ipod touch.  I connected to my macbook via USB and downloaded a newer verson for the ipod.  When it was all done, the photos were gone.  Can't find them.  Are they stored somewhere and can I get them back?  If not, then how do I prevent this from happening again? Thank you.

  • Misleading warning message after syncing iPod touch via iTunes

    I have a 2nd gen iPod Touch running iOS 4.02 and am using iTunes 9.2.1 on my MacBook Pro running Mac OS X 10.6.4
    When I sync my iPod Touch via iTunes, by clicking the Sync button ( and without changing any settings on the iPod Touch ) I get the following strange situation.
    In the middle of the sync process, the Sync button in iTunes is replaced by a Cancel button and an Apply button.
    After the syncing process is completed, if instead of ejecting the iPod touch I select a different row in the Library column of iTunes ( such as Podcasts or Music ), I got a popup warning message that says:
    "You have changed the settings for the iPod "iPod touch". Would you like to apply these changes?"
    I am presented with two buttons labeled respectively: Apply and Don't Apply.
    My question is: Snce I have not changed any settings on my iPod, but only have synced podcasts and music and apps (whatever has changed in iTunes) why am I being told that I have changed the settings on my iPod?

    You've posted in the WRONG forum. You won't get any help here unless your question is about Apple's server hardware.

  • Not enough free space when syncing iPod touch?

    Hi all!
    I'm having a seriously frustrating issue with my iTunes (Windows 7) when syncing with my 5th gen iPod touch:
    It seems to me like it wants to sync my whole library twice, seeing as the whole thing is 26.33GB, and I'm not sure why!
    I've tried:
    backing up and restoring my iPod
    deselecting 'Sync Music'
    syncing it through both wired connection and Wi-Fi
    Bearing in mind I really don't want to restore it completely, well, you can see why from the usage!
    So if anyone has any ideas or you want me to provide more information please ask. (I desperately want to get some new albums on there!)

    Do you have the right boxes checked to sync?

  • How to sync ipod touch to new computer itunes library after old itunes library computer crash without wiping out "library" on ipod touch

    how to sync ipod touch to new computer itunes library after old itunes library lost in computer crash, without erasing ipod touch

    Sync is only oneway, from PC to your device. Unless you have the music on your PC, iTunes is going to wipe out what you have on your device if you are syncing to a new library.
    You can only transfer Purchased music over to Itunes on your PC.

    As for you own music, you may have to use a third party software. A good Free one is called Sharepod which you can download from Download.com here:

  • Cant sync iPod touch.  comes up with "cannot be synced because there is not enough free space to hold all of the items in the iTunes library (21.6MB required, 304.8MB available)."  I am so confused.  I have more than enough space even on PC.

    That message is telling you that you do not have enough stgorage on the iPod to accomodate all the media you are trying to sync to the iPod.

  • When syncing iPod touch to MacBook, I have selected to sync only events newer than 360 days. Yet I get message that sync will change 8000 events on "this computer"  most of which are years old and many are recurring events.  I'm afraid to proceed

    When syncing iPod touch to MacBook, I have selected to sync only events newer than 360 days. Yet I get message that sync will change 8000 events on "this computer"  most of which are years old and many are recurring events.  I'm afraid to proceed with sync. 

    Having the same problem here. As a first time mac user, Apple has certainly made a bad first impression.
    For me, the issue seems to occur when transferring files between computers that are connected to the same access point (when transferring files from wired computers on the network there is no issue). My vista laptop and every laptop I have tried has worked perfectly fine with this access point so I am 100% convinced it is the mac. Basically when I copy the files, after about 100mb, I am unable to access anything on the local network or internet until I restart Airport. The weird thing is that even though I am unable to access anything, the airport utility says it is connected. I might also note that the wireless signal strength is full.
    If I can't get this figured out in a few days, this computer is going back to the store where it came from and I will officially label myself anti-mac. This type of issue is just unacceptable for something so main stream.

  • I have lost my contact info from my iPod touch gen 1

    I have lost my contact info from my iPod touch gen 1 and can't replace from my iMac with OSX 10.7.3 can some one help please

    WWhat are you syncing your contacts with? A supported application on the computer or cloud service? They should still be there.

  • IMac freezes when syncing iPod touch

    My iMac freezes (spinning beach ball) when I attempt to sync iPod Touch, using iTunes 10.5.  Otherwise, iMac, iTunes, and iPod Touch work fine.
    iPod Touch 3rd Gen., IOS 4.3
    iMac 21", new in Dec. 2010
    Snow Leopard

    Oh another thing:
    It does step 1 ok (backing up) but when it starts downloading apps (step 2) is the problem. The first few apps end up downloading but iTunes freezes like 5 times during the process... After a few apps comes the white screen and everything... Once the iPod is removed and iTunes it closed, the background comes back and everything  goes back to normal. Nothing is erased from the iPod either.
    Thought that would help.

  • Trouble syncing iPod touch - unknown error (-50)

    I'm trying to sync my iPod touch and getting an unknown error (-50). I've tried restarting iTunes, restarting my computer, and restarting the iPod. None of that is working. It was working earlier today, so I'm not sure what happened. I installed some new applications earlier in the day, which are working fine. I was trying to install some photos on the iPod when I first started getting the error.
    Any idea what the error is or how I can fix it?
    Thanks!

    I have plenty of space - both on iPod Touch & my Mac.
    One think i have noticed is iTunes will not let me select specific photo albums to include on the iPod. Basically it isn't importing photos. I did recently upgrade to iLife '09
    The good news is that it does seem to be syncing in the background even when the warning sign appears - I click OK and it has synced in my absence as opposed to waiting till I click OK then is starts syncing - very annoying.

    ATA bus error means that data corruption occurred during transmission over ATA bus (SATA or PATA). This type of errors can be indicated by
    ICRC or ABRT error as described in the section called “ATA/ATAPI device error (non-NCQ / non-CHECK CONDITION)”.
    Controller-specific error completion with error information indicating transmission error.
    On some controllers, command timeout. In this case, there may be a mechanism to determine that the timeout is due to transmission error.
    Unknown/random errors, timeouts and all sorts of weirdities.
    As described above, transmission errors can cause wide variety of symptoms ranging from device ICRC error to random device lockup, and, for many cases, there is no way to tell if an error condition is due to transmission error or not; therefore, it's necessary to employ some kind of heuristic when dealing with errors and timeouts. For example, encountering repetitive ABRT errors for known supported command is likely to indicate ATA bus error.
    Once it's determined that ATA bus errors have possibly occurred, lowering ATA bus transmission speed is one of actions which may alleviate the problem.
    I'd also add; make sure you have good backups when ATA errors are frequent
