My new ipod is showing that it is full but I have only loaded about 3gb

My new ipod is showing that it is full but I have only loaded about 3gb

Thanks Carolyn. I understand that my usable capacity may be less than 8gb for all those reasons.
But here is my problem.
I did a restore. The free capacity was then shown as 6.3gb,  then I added 75mb on mb4 files. The free capacity showing was then 5.3gb. I know that these files are approximately 75mb because I have them on my older 3G iPod touch and they are working quite fine and don't take up more than the expected room.

    If you have not already, I would shut down (power off) your computer.  Do this to Reset your shuffle

    Start up computer.  Run iTunes.  Connect shuffle.
    If you have added a new USB device recently (since the last time it worked properly), you may want to try disconnecting it to see if that makes any difference.

  • My iPod touch shows that it is charging but it actually doesn't charge and I've tried to restore/ restart it but the only icon is the charging icon with the battery icon with a bit of red fill and a small lightning icon below it. Can anybody help me?

    My iPod touch shows that it is charging but it actually doesn't charge and I've tried to restore/ restart it because the only icon is the charging icon, the one with the battery icon with a bit of red fill and a small lightning icon below it. Can anybody help me and give me solutions before I go to an apple service center?

    Place the iPod Touch into DFU mode.  This will be similer to what the factory would do to install the iOS onto new iOS devices.
    Placing it into DFU mode will allow you to "format" and install the current iOS for that device.
    To place your iOS device into DFU mode.
    First connect you iOS device to you computer.
    Open iTunes if not already open
    Now turn off your iOS device using the power swipe.
    Press the home and sleep button on your iOS device for 10 seconds.
    Release the sleep button but carry on holding down the home button.  For another 10 seconds.
    Your iOS device should now be on DFU.  Click on restore and iTunes will download the lastest iOS for your device.
    Hopefully that sorts it if not, you will have to go to a sevice centre or call Apple Care up and get them to collect it and repair it. (replace it)

  • I can not get my ipod 4 gen to log into Free Wifi hotspots. It shows that it is connected but I have to internet activity. I was at several hotspot locations last night and could not get on any, but other people were. HELP.

    I can not get my Ipod 4 Gen to log into free WIFI hot spots. It shows that I am connected but I have no internet activity. I was in several hot spots last night and could not log in, other people were, but I could not. HELP!

    - Did the other users who successfully connected have iDevices?
    - Frequently you have to open Safari/a browser and agree to the terms and conditions of the wifi spot before yo can get to the internet.  Some wifi spots use Flash or Java to log on which the iPod (and other iDevices) do not support)
    - Have you tried resetting network settings: Settings:General>Reset>Reset Network Settings
    - Does you Ipod successfully connect at home?.

    Hi
    I am experiencing wireless connection problem on 4s after ios 8.1 upgrade. The wireless icon appears showing that it's connected but webpages do not load. I have checked my internet connection with other devices and seems to be alright. what to do?
    I have tried reseting the network settings and forgetting my wireless connection and re-connecting to it. I even backed up my phone on itunes and restored it, factory reseted it. Nothing seems to work.
    Also after my upgrade to ios 8.1 my personal hotspot option under cellular data has disappeared.
    Would you please help me out? I would really appreciate it.

    Hi..
    Restart your router then restart the iPhone to test.

  • New iPod Touch shows extra podcasts on device but not in iTunes

    My wife and I share iTunes account. We have always used to different computers mainly due to we each listen to different podcast, music, and books.  Until now this has worked fine.  Now with the new iPod (replaced iPod video) I am seeing her podcasts on my iPod.  The whole point of different computers is to not see her stuff.  Is there a way to stop this?

    Go to Settings>iTunes and App stores and turn off Automatic Downloads

  • I have a program that uses Bing Maps, but the map only loads after the second search.

    On my website, I have an Agency Locator that uses Bing Maps to locate and display agencies near a zip code. In Chrome and IE, the map loads fine. If I clear the cache in FireFox, the map doesn't show up on the first search. The second search displays fine. I am not quite sure if there is something wrong with my code or if it is a bug with FireFox, Bing Maps, or the two of them together. I am using FireFox V27.0 on a Windows 7 pc.

    As an aside, I think attachEvent is a proprietary method of Internet Explorer. The script's method of browser detection might need to be updated.

  • My new ipod touch shows up as a cannon camera.

    My new ipod touch shows up as a cannon camera. I cannot upload itunes to it if my windows xp cannot identify.
    Every thing was working with ipod shuffle.
    Help resolve and use new ipod touch please!

    this usually means you either have a screenshot or a saved photo, go to the photos app and make sure that there isn't a section that is titled "Saved Photos" or "Camera Roll" if there is delete the photos from this section by clicking the picture, click it when the photo goes full screen and a menu option should pop up, push the icon that looks like a trash can and press "delete photo". Now the ipod should not show as a camera in windows

    I've found an easier way, just go to settings>general>usage>music. Then swipe it and press delete, i think this deletes the database described above, then re-sync, this worked for me anyway. Good luck, you need it with Apple software.
    I don't have a large library of music on my iPhone 4s since I've only had it since Oct 2012, but since the update to iTunes 11 in early December, my album artwork has been all messed up.  Everytime I would try to add new music, it would assign the wrong album artwork to anything new coming in.  And in addition to that, it would also mess up album artwork of music already on my phone.  Everything looked correct in iTunes, but on my phone, not so much.  After trying to unsynch, then synching again, my frustration level was at an all-time high. This problem seems to be everywhere online, but no concrete solution for everyone. 
    I finally came across your simple solution (at least for me because of my small inventory of music) of just deleting all the music through the settings, and then re-synching to add back my music.  Now all of the album artwork is correct again.  I'm almost afraid to add new music for fear the artwork will get mixed up all over again! I still think my issue is somehow connected to the iTunes 11 update because up until then I had no issues whatsoever. Anyway, thanks for an easy solution that worked for me.

  • I can no longer sync music to any of my ipods.  It shows that it is syncing,but it is stuck and won't go past the "syncing to ipod' state

    I can no longer sync music to any of my ipods.  It shows that it is syncing, but it doesn't.  It worked fine a few weeks ago.  Any suggestions?

    What exactly happens when you try to sync?
    Was the iPod previous synced to another iTunes library/computer?
    Have you successfully synced from this iTunes library/computer before?
    If so have you done anything like update iTunes on the computer since it last successfully synced?
    Do the songs play in iTunes?          
    Does any media now sync to the iPod?
    Do you have the right boxes checked to sync?

  • When I try to sync my ipod it shows that i have 2 gigs of other stuff. I dont know what it is and it is taking up space. how do I get it off?

    When I try to sync my ipod it shows that I have 2 gig of "other" stuff and I don't know what it is and it is taking up space. How do I get it off?

    You need to restore you iPod to gedure the "other" to its normal of less than 0.5 GB.  A restore from backup works if the large other is not in the backup.  Make sure that you turn off outo syncing (iTunes>Preferences>Device and check the box that says Prevent iPOds....syncing.  Otherwise, the backup will contain the other.

    My iPod classic shows that memory full in other category however there is nothing on it. I have left it connected all day and over night trying to restore it but the progress bar  never goes away. Is it shot or are there other options to restore to factory settings?

    Hi pbworth,
    When troubleshooting issues with iPod classic, it may be helpful to place the iPod into Disk Mode. For information on how to do so:

    Does the iOS device connect to other networks?
    Does the iOS device see the network?
    Any error messages?
    Do other devices now connect?
    Did the iOS device connect before?
    Try the following to rule out a software problem:                 
    - Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
    Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Power off and then back on the router
    - Reset network settings: Settings>General>Reset>Reset Network Settings
    - iOS: Troubleshooting Wi-Fi networks and connections
    - Wi-Fi: Unable to connect to an 802.11n Wi-Fi network
    - iOS: Recommended settings for Wi-Fi routers and access points
    - Restore from backup. See:
    iOS: How to back up
    - Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.
    If still problem make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store since it appears you have a hardware problem.

  • I updated Firefox and now it will not open at all. The hourglass shows that it's working but then nothing. I went to add/remove and removed mozilla and reinstalled it and still the same thing. It worked fine before I updated.

    I updated Firefox and now it will not open at all. The hourglass shows that it's working but then nothing. I went to add/remove and removed mozilla and reinstalled it and still the same thing. It worked fine before I updated. Now I can't even remove the program at all. Why is this happening?

    Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox (Tools) > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).
    *Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.

    Create a new profile as a test to check if your current profile is causing the problems.
    See "Basic Troubleshooting: Make a new profile":
    *https://support.mozilla.com/kb/Basic+Troubleshooting#w_8-make-a-new-profile
    There may be extensions and plugins installed by default in a new profile, so check that in "Tools > Add-ons > Extensions & Plugins" in case there are still problems.
    If that new profile works then you can transfer some files from the old profile to that new profile, but be careful not to copy corrupted files.
