Messages Taking Up almost 2GB

Under the "usage" section in the general settings, my iPhone 5s says that "messages" is taking up nearly 2GB of space. I've deleted a lot of texts and it only subtracted a few hundred megabytes. None of the other text messages I have left have any large data files in them. Any idea why it's taking up so much space??

My iTunes detects photos on my iPhone and it's taking up almost 4 GB, but there are no photos on my iPhone-. need help

my iTunes detects photos on my iPhone and it's taking up almost 4 GB, but there are no photos on my iPhone…. need help

This means you have 4Gb of photos in your trash.
Go to Photos - recently deleted (an option in the same menu as "camera roll" and "photo stream") and finally delete the photos.
The 4Gb of space will then be cleared.

My (shared) iMessages are taking up almost all my iPhone storage. Is there a way to remove them to clear up some space on my phone?

My (shared) iMessages are taking up almost all my iPhone storage. Is there a way to remove them to free up space on my phone?

Thx - the videos are on my Ipad - that is the problem - they are taking up all the storage and there is no room for anything else. Is there any place I can store them so that I can access them from time to time, but not have they use up all the space on the IPad? Sounds like the cloud is out...

Ok, What is all this "other" taking up space on my iphone and how do I get rid of it? It's taking up almost half the space on my phone.

"Other" includes data such as iPhone settings, contacts, calendar events, Safari bookmarks/cache/cookies, email and email attachments, SMS/MMS/iMessages, notes, app data, Safari cache, cookies and bookmarks, stored passwords, search index, home screen organization, wi-fi network data, etc. It should normally be about 1 GB. Yours in an indication there may be corrupt data on your phone.
Unfortunately the best solution to fix your issue is a restore. Back up your phone, then restore it using iTunes. Follow this guide:http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1414.

On my iPhone 4 i have almost 2GB of "other" on my phone. What is this and can I get rid of it??

In my itunes library i have almost 2gb of "other" on my phone. What is this and can I remove it??

Just to be clear, are you saying that your music is no longer found in iTunes? Regarding whatsapp, from what I have read in the forum, it is temporarily not available at this time.

Hi, I have Mac with Snow Leopard and was trying to purchase Lion , so I can move to I cloud, when trying to buy the app I get a message that a minimum 2gb of memory is required. I went check the hard disck info and it says available memory 20gb :-(

Apple Logo, left hand side of the menu bar, About this Mac. It should be right there. If not then More Info, Sys Info.
But it would seem you don't have 2GBs installed and more then likely both RAM slots are already filed. So you just need to buy more RAM in a pair. That could be 2 1GBs chips or if your Mac can have more then that then 2 2 GB chips or 2 4GB chips.
Get your model # and go to Crucial.com and use their memory search to find out how much your Mac can have installed and the price for it. I suggest you install as much as it can take. Cost is very low on RAM these days.

Process: "kernel_task" taking up almost 100% of CPU

A few hours ago, I noticed my MBP start hanging and generally processing very slow. Apps would freeze at random times, and generally a lot of odd behavior.
I checked the activity monitor to see what might be causing this. It turns out, the process "kernel_task" is using almost 100% of my CPU. It has stayed within the 70-100% range, and has yet to go down. I tried many things, including restarting my Mac many times, but it remains the same.
Does anyone know why "kernel_task" is taking up so much of my CPU? Is there a way to somehow "reset" the process to get it back to normal? Any help would be much appreciated, since my Mac is, for just about all purposes, useless right now. It took me about an hour just to get to this page and type this message.
Thanks in advance!
P.S. I attached a screenshot of the process in the Activity Monitor. You can view it here: http://images12.fotki.com/v203/filejMEm/9ae47/8/1659168/8691947/kernel_task.png

I just want to add that I think the "kernel_task" might have started eating CPU when I stopped a RAR program in the middle of extracting an archive. I'm not 100% sure though that this is when the problem started.

I down loaded Firefox 3.6.10, did the execution and still when load it as my browser I get a message that says "Almost there". What is going on?

When I load Firefox as my browser, a screen comes up that wants me to download the 3.6.10 version again but, as I said, it has been downloaded, executed and I have tried this several times with the same result. I run Vista Home Premium operating system. I can still browse the internet but still get my home page as "You are almost there" or some such. What should I do?

I have tried everything I could to fix this, but some things require actually being on Firefox, and since I cannot get on, I cannot click on the tabs to do it. I have even totally uninstalled firefox, and that has not fixed this. I still get the same message that firefox is running and I need to close it or restart (which I have also tried dozens of times). I have removed things like Java, and that has not helped either. If I cannot even get on line in firefox, how can I fix this. I am not crazy about using internet explorer, but right now, it is my only option. I even tried to start in safe mode, and the same message box pops up!

Messages taking few seconds to pass through Adapter Engine

Hi All,
I am dealing with Synchronous scenarios.Sender is SOAP adapter and receiver is proxy.
When I monitor the message monitoring audit log for Adapter engine I can see in the message is taking 4-5 seconds to reach the Integration engine from the SOAP sender adapter.
This delay is in the Audit log when the message goes from the step "Trying to put the message into the call queue" to "Message successfully put into the queue".
Is there any setting by which I can eliminate this delay time in adapter.
Can somebody help me out on this?
Note : CPU Utilisation is around 7 % and there are around 700000 messages per day.
Thanks,
Zabiulla

Zabiulla,
it's a performance tunning task. Unfortunately most of the actions SAP suggested for performance tunning are aimed at async communication, for SOAP, what you can at least try is to: Instead of using the SOAP sender adapter, you can directly send a SOAP request to the entry point of the Integration Engine pipeline bypassing the Adapter Engine. As a prerequisite, the URL/query string should include the XI parameters like in the example below:
http://<server>:<port>/sap/xi/engine?type=entry&version=3.0&Sender.Service=<YourService>&Interface=<YourNamespace>%5E<YourInterface>
Try this to bypass adatper engine, this should help in your case.

Why is Messaging taking up so much space?

Messages is showing up under Usage as over 70 MB with almost all of it being saved messages. Is there a way to clear "cached" messages?

Svchost.exe taking up almost all of my cpu after the computer has been running for a number of hours

My computer is almost a year old and it is a custom build gaming rig with the following specs
Intel Core i5-3570k CPU @ 3.40GHz
8.0GB of Ram
AMD Radeon HD 6870
running windows 8.1
The issue is that after a few hours my computer starts to drastically drop in performance. This is due to two reasons. Firstly explore.exe starts to use up my cpu. I can easily stop this by using process explorer to close the offending thread (only 1 thread
i causing the issue, the rest are using minimal cpu) killing this thread reduces the cpu and appears to have no concequence in terms of functionality of my pc.
After this on average ten minutes later what happen is that svchost.exe starts using from 40%-60% of my cpu at which point if I do not quit any game I am playing my computer will crash. using process explorer to find the offending threads lead me to a thread
with a TID of 1836. If I kill this process I lose internet connection. Yet before this happens there is no sign of this thread. It appears to not be present until the issue appears and when it does appear this process is essential to my internet connection.
Please can someone help me

Messages taking 2 hours to process .

Hi
our system is getting very slow with below warning every second
The adapter failed to transmit message going to send port "SendPort" with URL
"". It will be retransmitted after the retry interval specified for this Send Port.
Details:"System.Transactions.TransactionException: The operation is not
valid for the state of the transaction. ---> System.TimeoutException: Transaction Timeout
a single file is taking 2 hours to process .
probem got resolved by restart the host instance but i want permanent solution .
Regards,

Hi Mohit,
If this happens for all the message in your BizTalk farm, then this issue is due to general health of the server but if it happens to a specific processing then this issue
is due to transaction between BizTalk and your destination system. I feel it’s more to do with second case –between BizTalk and a specific destination system.
Seems like you’re using some transactional adapter..may be WCF-SQL or SAP etc..anyway.
This issue normally occurs if the transaction handshake between BizTalk and destination has not happened on time. You can review you send port’s adapter’s time out property
(it different for adapter used). Check the status of the transaction/message at the destination systems.
Ideally, if a transaction takes longer time, it shall timeout and fail,check your timeout setting for timeout. One option on this to update machine.config file which will
change timeout setting for entire System.Transactions Namespace as mentioned in the following blog (this article not specific to WCF-SAP adapter, this discuss about
transaction timeout):http://blogs.msdn.com/b/biztalknotes/archive/2013/05/03/timeout-issue-with-wcf-sap-biztalk-adapter.aspx
If this happens for the entire message (or atleast to
most, find th
e pattern)
in your BizTalk farm, then this issue is due to general health of the server try running the messagebox viewer as you know and check the performance monitor.
