New Itouch 8gb has 3.85 other from factory

Hi, We just purchased a new macbook with the new itouch student special.
When we began syncing, there was 3.85 gigs of "other" so we decided to restore the itouch. The other persists.
I read a post about an .ipa file but both the itouch and macbook are brand new from the store. All files should be in their right place.
Thoughts?

hmm, that normally indicates file corruption. when you restored, you did restore to new didn't you?

Transfer iPod everything to a new iTouch

How do I transfer everything that is on my current iPod Nano 3rd Generation to a new iTouch 8GB that I'm planning on purchasing?

Oh but it is.... I have 2 iPod classics, 2 nano's now and a touch... Both classics sync to the same thing and they both get it just fine.... THe nano, due to the restricted size only carry the contents applicable.
It's uniquely plug and go, all of the qualified content that you choose to sync in iTunes when you connect the new device will go over.

IOS 7.0.2 install on iPad 2 has frozen. My "other" space has been slowly rising from 1gb to 7.8gb

Hello. I'm a seasoned apple and ipad user, however my iOS 7.0.2 installation has left my iPad 2 frozen with the apple logo and bar on screen. I've tried all the given instructions, none of which have resolved the issue. However I've noticed that on the iPad Summary screen on iTunes my "other" space
has been slowly rising from 1gb and it is now up to 7.8gb after 12 hours. By clicking on the the device tab, it causes the "other" to increase. Is it very, very slowly installing? My iPad did have about 12gb of the 13.64gb storage used, hence perhaps why it is taking so long?

Can I delete old backups from other devices if my new iphone 6 has a current backup with everything on my new phone?

Can I delete old backups from other devices if my new iphone 6 has a current backup with everything on my new phone?

Hi there dyarrell,
You can do this if you are confident that your current device has all of the data on it that you want to keep. The method for deleting the backup will be differnt depending on the backup method. Take a look at the articles below for more information.

I have bought an 8GB 4G iTouch, it has maximum volume issue

My 8GB iPod Touch is having very low maximum volume. I have checked the maximum level setting it is set to max. When I drag the volume bar to half, volume goes very faint. I have compared with with my friends iPod, it seems like mine really have some issue. Same song was played on both the pods, friends maximum volume was around 40% more. Only difference was, friend's 64gb pod was bought in US and I bought it in India. Is there different manufacturing norms followed for different countries.
When I went to the reseller, to talk about the issue. He played all the pods on display at the store, all were having same volume levels. It was a surprise. Please let me know, is it a defect? Has someone also encounter the same issue?

Is there any technical specification that supports this. I have searched every corner on apple.com for itouch, didnt get any update what you have said.
I don't think you will find anything from Apple referring specifically to the EU limit, I never have. But there have been plenty of posts on this forum, in the past three years, concerning this subject. It is not unique to Apple; all MP3 players now sold within the European Union have their maximum volume capped, I believe at 85 decibels. You will find news articles on the BBC and other UK sites, from the end of 2009.
However, like all EU legislation, we receive all the information about it second-hand, none of us mere citizens get to read these EU rules for oursleves. Our news media tells us.
You will simply have to have faith that what I have said about the EU maximum volume limit is fact. It's what I have to do. I can understand your reluctance to accept my word on this, I too have read the post to you, from the person whose answer to everything is to restore the ipod. Actually, even funnier was his suggestion that all you had to do was turn the iPod off for two minutes. Now that was funny!
What's more relevant to you is that you ask your supplier if there is any chance that your iPod came from the European Union Market. If necessary, put them on the spot by explaining that you know the difference between an EU iPod and a non-EU iPod. (You do, I've explained it.)
We haven't established beyond doubt that this is the cause of your problem. But if you do have an EU iPod, then it will have a lower maximum volume than an iPod destined for the USA.
One solution to your problem is to use a headphone amplifier, inline between the iPod and your headphones. Search the internet for "portable headphone amps", "CMoy amp", or "Altoid Amp". (Many of the Cmoy amps have been built into Altoid mints tins.) They run on a 9volt battery. I use one.
If you do start using a headphone amplifier, just remember why the rules were introduced here in the EU - to prevent hearing loss due to excessive volume.

HT201272 How can I recover a purchased app on one itouch (which has since died) and put it on my new itouch device if I haven't syncronised my old device with my mac/itunes account before it died?

How can I recover a purchased app on one itouch (which has since died) and put it on my new itouch device if I haven't syncronised my old device with my mac/itunes account before it died?

It is easy to download items you have purchased from iTunes again; this article will walk you through it: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2519
You want the "Apps on iOS" section.

Brand new Itouch has totally stopped working...??? is it the battery or is there a freeze/lock button that was activated?

Brand new Itouch has just stopped working.....no response...battery seemed to be fully charged and then my daughter hit the button to shut the screen off..now no response whatsoever.....???

Try a system reset. It cures many ills and it's quick, easy and harmless...
Hold down the on/off switch and the Home button simultaneously until the screen blacks out or you see the Apple logo. Ignore the "Slide to power off" text if it appears. You will not lose any apps, data, music, movies, settings, etc.
If the Reset doesn't help, try a Restore. From iTunes, select the iPad and then select the Summary tab. Follow directions for Restore and be sure to say "yes" to the backup. You will be warned that all data (apps, music, movies, etc.) will be erased but, as the Restore finishes, you will be asked if you wish the contents of the backup to be copied to the iPad.
There's more but let's take it in small bites.
Also, read this.
There have been some problems accessing pages on the Apple web site. If the hyperlink gives you a "We're sorry" message, try again.

I have my current iPhone backed up onto iCloud but it also has my old iPhone on there as well. My new phone has all the data from my old iPhone on, so can I delete the old iPhone from the iCloud as its taking up memory? Thank you

Sorry I wrote the question in the title!!
I have my iPhone 4 and my new iPhone 5 on my iCloud storage. It's now nearly full as it still has my old phone on it.
If I delete the phone from iCloud memory it won't delete the data from me new phone that was originally backed up from the old phone
Via the cloud?
Thank you very much!

Welcome to Apple Support Communities
Of course. If you don't need your old phone's backup, you can remove it. Open Settings > iCloud > Storage and Backup > Manage Storage, select the old device backup and delete it.
The new iPhone backup won't be deleted and you will keep everything on the new phone

How do you transfer playlists from on computer to a new one, library has already been transfered

how do you transfer playlists from on computer to a new one, library has already been transfered

- Why not just copy the iTunes computer folder to the new computer?
- You can transfer iTunes purchases to the computer by:
iTunes Store: Transferring purchases from your iPhone, iPad, or iPod to a computer
- You can transfer non-iTunes purchased music by using one of the third-party programs discussed in ths previous discussion:
Best iPod to PC
- Unless you can move/copy the iPod backup file from your old computer to the new one and restore from backup, you will have to restore to factory defaults/new iPod and thus loose all app date. The iPod backup file is located:
Mac: ~/Library/Application Support/MobileSync/Backup/
Windows XP: \Documents and Settings\(username)\Application Data\Apple Computer\MobileSync\Backup\
Windows Vista and Windows 7: \Users\(username)\AppData\Roaming\Apple Computer\MobileSync\Backup\

If you want to transfer app dat you need to restore the new iPod from the backup of the old iPod. Restoring from backup will result in your new iPod being just like your old iPOd except you will have to reenter keychain items like passwords since those only get restore to the same device upon a restore.

Authorize your new computer's iTunes first - Store>Authorize this computer.
1) Without connecting your iPad to your laptop, start iTunes. Click on Edit. Click on Preferences. Click on Devices. Check the box next to "Prevent your iPod etc. from automatically syncing." Click OK.
2) Now connect your iPad to your laptop and start iTunes.
3) When iTunes starts, right click on your iPad under Devices in the left column. Select Transfer purchases etc.
4) After it finishes transferring all your apps to your new laptop, right click on your iPad and select Backup your iPad.
5) After it finishes backing up your iPad, right click on your iPad and select Restore etc.
6) After it finishes restoring, left click on your iPad , then click on the Apps tab on top, and check the box next to Sync Apps, then click on Apply below.
If everything on your iPad looks good after the sync, go back and click on Edit / Preferences / Devices and UN-check the box next to Prevent your iPod etc. The only other thing you may want to check is if your contacts, bookmarks, etc. are syncing correctly now. If not, go to the Info tab after connecting and make sure you indicate which features you want to sync with what sources.
