Memory on my iphone is still full after deleting nearly all my music

I have an iphone 4 and i recently tried deleting a lot of music so that space was available on my phone. However, now I have deleted the music there has been no change to the memory of my ipod. The bar at the bottom of itunes had a huge chunk for "audio" but now it just seems to have moved it into "other". Can anyone help?

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.

External hard drive is still full after deleting files

I everyone, i really need some help with my hard drive. I have the Lacie 500gb firewire hard drive. I am save most of my short films, and other works on it while using final cut. While rendering videos recently , its said that i needed to free up space. When i right click and click on the get info for the hard drive, it told me 493.34gb has been used. I have deleted almost all the huge files i have on there after uploading to my cloud, but its making no difference. Its not freeing up any space. and I'm now at 497gb. Now i have almost totally deleted everything on it, and its still saying i have only about 2.7gb left on it.
I really can't afford to go and get another hard drive right now and just need to free up some space on this hard drive to continue working.
Please tell me what i am doing wrong so i can free up much necessary space on this drive.
I anxiously await your assistance.
thanks a whole lot!!

Dig deep, because it sounds like your best solution is to actually get another External Hard Drive.
I don't normally recommend inexpensive USB portable hard drives for everyday use, but that might be a good solution for old files that you would really rather save than trash to make room.
For example's:

My iphone storage is full, I deleted all photos but I still see photos occupy 2 GB!! how I can free some storage? Even my emails occupy 3 GB on my Iphone, how I can only delete them from my device?

My iphone storage is full, I deleted all photos but I still see photos occupy 2 GB!! how I can free some storage? Even my emails occupy 3 GB on my Iphone, how I can only delete them from my device?

for the photos: make sure you reboot the device so that the changes are taken into consideration.
For emails: log out of your email account, make sure the emails from that account have been deleted, then log back in, and go to the mall app, but open only the inbox. as long as you don't open your email folders, the phone won't download them.

After syncing my iphone to my itunes on my pc, all the music on my phone is gone. I don't have a backup. Is there any way I can get them back?

If you had no other backup....NOPE! However, if you purchased your songs from iTunes, check out: iTunes Store - Finding Lost Music FAQ

HT1848 On itunes, when synced to my pc, I show less than half of the music that is on my iphone 4. How do I get all the music onto my pc?

I am about to scream if I don't figure this out or just decide to leave Apple and get a Galaxy phone. On itunes, when synced to my pc, I show less than half of the music that is on my iphone 4. How do I get all the music onto my pc? I have read many forums and tried many things, but apple/iTunes is not intuitive at least not on a PC. When I go to devices it won't let me select "transfer music". It's grayed out. Why is this and what can I do? I'd like to delete some of the music off of my iPhone but don't want it gone forever. Pleae help.

Thanks Turingtest2,
I appreciate your response. I have done all of the things mentioned, but still when I click on "devices", the "transfer music" option is still not selectable. I see it, but can't select it. I am running Windows 7 on my PC.
However, one thing I read makes me take pause. At one point I did erase my computer back to factory settings using the mirrored image. We backed up all information and put the important stuff back on, but I don't believe we did anything with iTunes, so it's a possibility that the music that is in my library now, may only be music I have purchased since then. But, (thinking out loud) that was a while ago and I am pretty sure I have purchased more music than what is in my iTunes library, since then. Maybe I will approach it from that angle and see what happens.
It just doesn't make any logical sense that syncing goes from computer to device. Ostensibly then, my iPhone would only have the music that is on my computer after syncing and that is not the case. I still have all my music on my phone. I can see the new music that's on my phone get added to my iTunes library when I connect, which would make one think that syncing occurs both ways. I don't know. It's maddening. Maybe I should just follow my husbands advice and go to an Android. LOL. Or maybe I will take my laptop and phone to the Apple store and make them figure it out. Ha.
If you have any thoughts about this, let me know. Thanks again.

After iTunes Crash Sync deleted nearly all apps on iPad

I´d recently problems with iTunes: By syncing with iPad and with iTunes Match my library crashed. It started a safe mode, and I´ve recognized that about 9.000 from my 24.000 songs have been lost. No greater problem, as I´ve iTunes Match. It needed quite a time, and the library was complete again. The lost 9.000 songs have not been added from the PC, but they are in the cloud and I can load them again.
My greater problem: What I didn´t recognize is that the apps were lost, too. There were no apps and no e-books in my iTunes.
And now the best: As I wanted to load my iPad iTunes started syncing and deleted nearly all my apps from my iPad. Only 29 apps remained. Why especially this 29 apps remained and not other 29 - I don´t know...
The re-installing of the apps is not the problem, too. But the game saves... all lost? Or will my cloud sync help?
And the restored library is now a second PC for my iTunes Match.
So it would be really great if anyone of you can help me with the following questions:
1. Why had my empty iTunes deleted all the apps on iPad and not the other way (full iPad saving backup on iTunes)?
2. How can I get my old iPad situation back? Can I anyway?
3. How can I deactivate an inactive PC from iTunes Match? (Deactivation is just possible for the actual library)
4. Can I restore my game saves when the apps do not offer iCloud sync?
5. And what will happen when my empty apps will sync with iCloud? Will the empty game saves delete the old ones?
6. And what will happen when I connect my iPhone and my iPod with power while iTunes is running? Will iTunes delete these apps, too?
Thanks a lot for your patience reading all the questions. I really hope you can help.

I have this same issue, except that when I drag/drop apps from the Library, to my iPad, it doesn't seem to update the checkmarks in the Sync Apps section. Shouldn't it be done automatically when I add apps in itunes in this fashion? Since on the next sync, if I change anything, it'll ask me if I want them removed or I have to cancel it all.
Also, if I don't Sync Apps, will my data still be backed up? That is, if I need to restore my iPad, will my apps be restored as well as the backed up data?
Thx.

What happens when you try to redownload them ? What you can re-download (the types of content that you can redownload varies by country) will show under the Purchased link under Quicklinks on the right-hand side of the iTunes store home page on your computer's iTunes, and the Purchased tab in the iTunes store app on your iPhone (and similarly for apps in the App Store app). If you still have your old phone then you should be able to copy your iTunes downloads from it over to your computer's iTunes via File > Devices > Transfer Purchases

Thanks.
Just to get the terminology right, neither Spybot Search & Destroy nor Avast Browser Cleanup are supposed to clean viruses. This is what anti-virus software is for.
Avast Browser Cleanup is a tool that serves to delete unwanted toolbars and plug-ins. None of these are viruses.
I haven't heard about Avast Browser Cleanup before, and it's certainly not something I'd have used. In any case, it's not supposed to kill your profile.
''I have recovered a folder called Mozilla Firefox.bak and some other stuffs''
So what's in that recovered folder? If it contains the automatically created backups of your bookmarks, you can recover your bookmarks from that.

DId you fail to make sure that all of your music was on your computer before updating?
If so, not good, then you can redownload some itunes purchases in some countries:

HT4914 Once I turn on Match, how do I remove the songs from my iPhone, thus freeing up the memory, which is my initial purpose anyway? (while still having instant access to all my music)

Once I turn on Match, how do I remove the songs form my iPhone, thus freeing up the memory, which is my initial purpose anywhy (while still having complete instant access to all my music) ?

Hello there dwflemming1,
I recommend turning off iTunes Match on the computer and the phone. Then connect the phone to the computer and uncheck the box to sync music, then click apply in the lower right corner of iTunes. When that completes, turn match back on on both devices.

Hard Drive still full after emptying trash

Hi!
I own a Macbook running 10.4.8., 80 GB hard drive. I also just purchased and hooked up a LaCie external hard drive, FA Porsche, USB 2.0, 250 GB.
I am working on making some home movies into DVDs, which is why I purchased the hard drive, so I could store the files on that instead of clogging up my computer. Average file size is about 11 GB.
I filled up my computer hard drive, and then copied the files to the external hard drive once it was connected. I then put the computer files in the trash and emptied the trash. This should have cleared up space on my computer, but nothing has changed, I still have 1 GB of space, but yet the files are gone.
I tried restarting the computer and repairing disk permissions, but this has not worked.
Please Help!

The drive is still full even with the external drive unplugged. Another thing that could be a problem, that I know nothing about, is FileVault. My dad told me to set it up, and neither of us know what it is or what it does. I ran Whatsize, and it appears to me that because I have Filevault running, I have twice as many files. And I tried to turn it off, but it says I don't have enough disk space to turn it off.
Also, I tried to back up my computer onto the external drive, and the software said I didn't have enough space, even though when I click on the drive, it has plenty! I then just put each main folder (i.e. apps, docs, music, etc) in manually, and this worked. I'm so afraid I might miss something before I re-format.
Has anyone had this much trouble with a Lacie drive?

automatic after 7 days will help. The other part of the puzzle is having
GWChecks on Contents run on a regular basis (weekly) as that will get rid
of the rest of the bits.
