Orange (other) field keeps coming back

I have just recently received a brand new 30 gb ipod video. So far it has worked fine except for one thing. The orange (other) field takes up almost all of the space on the ipod (24.23 gb) I do not have pictures on the ipod, only video and music, which is under a separate category. I have tried restoring my ipod 2 or 3 times, but after a couple days, the orange field is always full again. How do I fix this problem?
Thank you for any help you can give.

its very interesting, so you have restored the ipod according to this article
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=60983
if you have restored the ipod and your ipod is still reporting that it is using up space that you know for a fact that you have not, then i'd get the ipod serviced

  • I have tow itunes libraries.  Music from one library has merged with the other and I can not delete the songs.  They keep coming back.

    I have two ipod touch libraries under my account.  One for my daughter and one for me.  I bought my daughter an Iphone and then opened her ipod touch libraryon the computer (Windows Vista).  I plugged in her iphone so that she can have the stuff from her ipod touch on her new phone.  Somehow her library has partially merged with my library.  My ipod touch now has some of HER games and music on it.  I went into my library and deleted these games and songs, but they keep coming back.  How do I get rid of these once and for all.  I don't want to be shuffling AC/DC, Rob Zombie, and then get Justin Bieber all of a sudden while sitting at a red light in traffic.

    That's not the way wifi works.
    You may see the other networks but you are not connected to them in any way.

  • Plugin-container.exe keeps coming back and slowing my machine (ver.3.6.12)

    This problem occurred in earlier editions and I would have thought that it should have been solved by now.
    My computer goes to 100% usage and stay there until I go into my Windows Task Manager and stop the process: plugin-container.exe . I understand this was put in to stop crashes by Flash Player??? Well , it seems that they have decided to throw the baby out with the wash water. I stop the process but it keeps coming back.
    Is there some similar program like Flashplayer that works and that we can use?
    What happens if we can really get rid of it permanently?
    How can we really get rid of it permanently?
    If you send me instructions make sure that my ten-year old can understand it.
    Thanks, in advance.

    ok I've just had to fix this myself so can confirm it works :)
    open a new tab in mozilla and enter '''about:config''' in the address bar and hit enter.
    It will say ''''here be dragons'''' click ''''I'll be careful I promise''''.
    In the filter field enter '''dom.ipc'''
    You will see a list of preference names, click on the value to toggle (change settings)
    These are the settings you want.
    dom.ipc.plugins.enabled ''' true'''
    dom.ipc.plugins.enabled.npctrl.dll '''false'''
    dom.ipc.plugins.enabled.npqtplugin.dll '''false'''
    dom.ipc.plugins.enabled.npswf32.dll '''false'''
    dom.ipc.plugins.enabled.nptest.dll '''true'''
    dom.ipc.plugins.timeoutSecs 45
    Restart firefox and then check Task Manager... plugin-container has disappeared, Mozilla is fast again, your RAM is no longer being hogged... happy days :)

  • Deleted app keeps coming back

    I've deleted this app twice but keep getting updates for it. Out of habit, I click "update all" and get the stupid thing again because there's no way to stop the download at that point. I've tried getting the icons to jiggle, but the one in process has no delete option until it's loaded again.
    Any way to keep it out of my updates to begin with? How do I permanently delete an app? Thanks.

    I am having the same problem. I have deleted the app in iTunes and on the iPod but every time I download updates, it keeps coming back. How can I get this app (Utah State Parks Field Guide) to leave me alone.

  • I am trying to set up iCloud and it keeps coming back and saying "This apple ID's email address cannot be Verified. It is my main iTunes address and password. What is wrong?

    Hi,
    I am trying to set up iCloud on my various devices. When I log in with my iTunes (Apple id) it keeps coming back and stating
    "Verify your account. This Apple ID's email address cannot be verified. Change your apple ids email address at appleid.apple.com to sig into i cloud"
    My apple id has been alive and in use for years on iTunes etc. I have tried a different address and password and still get the same result
    Help???
    Regards
    Brian

    If your email address is valid, just go to https://appleid.apple.com/, click "Manage your account" to the right,sign in, click  Name, ID, and Email Addresses to the left, then click "Verify now" next to your email address.  Apple will send you an email to this address with a verification link.  Otherwise add an alternate email address that can be verified.

  • How do I get rid of the 'buump.me' home page? It just keeps coming back.

    I'm using Ubuntu 12.04 OS and my firefox web browser is compromised with this 'buump.me' home page which I can't get rid of. I've been into the cache, deleted all my cookies, manually changed the home page and the backup home page in the preferences folder. Still keeps coming back. Where is this nasty bit of code lurking in my machine and how can I get rid of it?
    Thanks for any help

    Thanks ideato
    I tried this and lost all my bookmarks and stuff! But found them in a backup file.
    I've solved the problem by creating a new firefox profile and importing my settings and bookmarks from the old one (carefully, so as not to import the virus as well)
    Now the old profile has the virus and the new profile is just fine.
    I could just delete the old profile... but I'd love to find out exactly where this buump.me bug is lurking, so maybe I'll keep the old profile for a while and see if I can find half a day or night free for detective work.

  • I added a persona, I've disabled and removed that persona, it keeps coming back. Going into tools does not help, adding a new persona does not help. I'm ready to give up on firefox!

    I added a persona, wanted a new one so disabled and removed the old one. I added a new persona, but the old one keeps coming back. Going into tools/add ons does no good because it is not even listed anymore but keeps coming back. I've shut down/restarted, I've searched for answers to this problem.

    The data that specifies which persona to display is stored as a pref in the prefs.js file in the Firefox Profile Folder.
    Did you try to rename or move the prefs.js file and a possible user.js file to see if that helps?
    Are you using the Personas Plus extension, because in that case you need to check the settings in that extension.
    You can use this button to go to the Firefox profile folder:

  • I have an older I-Pad and have daily recurring spam.  Always the same and some going back to January. I delete them every day and they delete them in the trash folder but they keep coming back.  How do I get rid of them ?

    I have an older I-pad and have recurring spam. How do I stop it ???  I delete it every day and then delete the trash folder but it keeps coming back.  Thanks.

    For those kind of mails, unsubscribing doesn't work. they're breaking the law trying to scam you, they're not going to respect unsubscribe. Unsubscribe only works with real companies. Such as unsubscribing from Gap company mail etc. Spammers can actually use the 'unsubscribe' as a confirmation 'hey, there's a real person here, hit em hard'
    I'm not really familiar with g-mail, but most mail programs have filters you can set up, such as telling it 'everything with dating in the title, send to the trash' etc.
    You can do some research on that or have someone help you with some hands on help.
    If that e-mail has ever been used for e-greeting cards, or given to enter contests, etc, your address is out there. You will never get rid of it totally.
    If it's really, really bad, sometimes what you have to do is abandon the address and get a new one and only give it out to people you want to contact you. Don't  enter it on websites, or use e-cards or things like that that are spam collection mechanisms.

  • Java applet warning keeps coming back for signed applet

    I have an applet signed with certificate issued by a public CA cert verisign. This applet prints document to the printer. When it loads everything looks good and checks on the screen and the user is prompted to allow access to the printer. Even, though the user selects "Allways allow this applet to print" the warning keeps coming back everytime the applet attempts to access the printer.
    I notice other applets work correctly. I veriy the signed jar and it all looks correct every class file comes with smk marking.
    What is going, can someone please help???
    Manuel

    I appreciate the help. but i was able to resolve the problem. Our web page called the applet print method directly from scripting. Apparently that causes the java plugin to warn the user every time.
    To avoid this issue the new print method queues up a print job and a separate thread watches for the queue and picks up the job and prints it. In order to support the same original function, the new print method is syncronized and waits for the job to be queued before it returns.
    Now, there are no warnings even the first time you use the applet.
