"Other" and "Documents and Data" tabs? What is on them and how can I minimize the space they take up?
Okay, so I plugged my phone in recently and I clicked the iPhone tab (force of habbit) and I took a look at the storage on my iPhone 4. The two largest tabs are the "Other" and "Documents & Data" tabs. What is on those tabs and how can I minimize the amount of space they take up?
Hello, tayajoan.
Thank you for visiting Apple Support Communities.
Here is an article that provides more information regarding the "other" storage.
Other: Everything else, such as contacts, calendars, messages, emails and their attachments, Safari Offline Reading List, settings, and other system resources.

I am a previous user of itouch and sync'd it with itunes on my PC using windows 7, itunes v10. Bought my first iphone and started using it: I entered contacts, photos, apps, etc.. I sync it for the first time and itunes removed all my data from my Iphone and put my old data from Itouch on the iphone. How can I get my Iphone data back?

How can I delete an extra Apple ID ?
I just want to have one only for my Iphone and for my Mac.
Thank you for any advice.I went to the Apple support site last nite for a live chat.
The tech there suggested 2 separate actions;
Here they are, verbatum;
# 1
Go to,
Store-ID-sign out
#2
Change the password to a random string of numbers and letters and set up the other account on both services.
So...
That's it. Neither suggestion worked for me so I'm going up to the apple store in Century City and see if one of the geniuses can straighten me out. -

How can I change the space between a checkbox and text all at one time? I have a lot of checkboxes in my form.
Okay, I haven't found a way to add an extra space using Find/replace, but you might be able to add some text wrap to the check boxes that will push the text away from them.
Open Find/Replace and click the Object tab.
Click the Specify attributes to find button to the right of the Find Object Format: field.
Under Basic Attributes, choose Stroke and then the Black swatch (assuming the black swatch is applied to the strokes of your check boxes). If there are no other stand-alone objects in your form with a Black stroke, this should be all you need. (If there are Black strokes on your table cells, they will be ignored.)
Click OK
Click the Specify attributes to change button to the right of the Change Object Format: field.
Under Basic Attributes, choose Text Wrap & Other > Text Wrap > Type: > Wrap around bounding box (2nd button from left)
Under Offset, set a Right offset at the distance you'd like to add (I don't know what units you use, but the 3-5 points might work for your purposes...might take some trial-and-error to get it where you want)
Click OK
Click Change All -
We have itunes music on a computer, an ipod nano, and a new ipod touch under two different accounts. How can we combine the music from both accounts to one device?
There is no "adding" a device. Simply plug the iDevice into the computer. iTunes should automatically detect the device when it is connected.
iTunes can sync/manage as many iDevices as you want... there is no 1 device limit. -
How can I adjust the space between the dividing line of the footnotes and the continuous text?
How can I adjust the space between the dividing line of the footnotes and the continuous text?
I want to extend the space so the dividing line does not stuck to the normal (continuous) text in my thesis. Do you have a solution? That would be perfect. Thanks a lot!

I just upgraded to a new MacBook and my wife is inheriting my old MacBook Air. How can I change the her MacBook Air to now be fundamentally hers? That is, so the House Icon under Users folder is her name and not mine? Also the default AppleID for purchase stubbernly remains my own.
You do not mention it, but I will assume you are running OS 10.9.1.
Go to: Apple menu / System Preferences / Users & Groups. Click the padlock and enter your password.
Click the + (plus sign) and set up a new account for your wife. You have to enter a bunch of info. And then create the correct Login Options. Automatic login does not require a password from the selected user.
When that is done, verify the account works by restarting the computer and login as your wife.
Make sure that any applications in your own Users folder that will be needed are moved to the Applications folder in your wife's Users folder.
Now go back to Users and Groups, click the padlock and authenticate, select your own account, and hit the - (minus sign). This step cannot be reversed, so you might want to wait a few days before doing it.
When your wife is logged in, the App Store will know. -

I havent received any code after paying for it! Money's been withdrawn from my bank account and all I have now is a transaction code. How can I get the code for Photoshop?
You'll need to call Adobe customer support on the telephone. There's little we fellow users can do to help you.

My friend put cydia on my ipod and other stuff from it like something who slide your apps differently. How can I remove the both, I really want, plz help ...?
They hacked it and may have caused damage to your device. Jailbreaking also voids your warranty and support from Apple. To restore to a clean state, restore in Recovery Mode: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1808

I need to accept cookies to log into a technical site. I clear all cookies and the history and follow the instructions for setting privacy options to "Use custom settings for history" and to accept all cookies. When I go back to try logging into the site, it still tells me cookies aren't accepted. When I go back to Options-Privacy, the setting has been changed back to "Remember history" from "Use custom settings for history". I have done this about 5 times, trying various options, closing Firefox after making the change and starting it again - nothing works. How can I get the privacy settings to stay as I set them and accept cookies?
Blocking all cookies in Safari does not work. Deleted cookies will not stay deleted. There are numerous threads on this going back years, both in these forums and elsewhere. Many claim to have submitted the issue to Apple, but I have never seen anyone post a reply.
I have seen many suggested fixes that involve finding the cookies file, some including Terminal manipulations, and none seems to work universally. I can find noplace where Apple addresses this officially with an actual Apple-approved explanation or how-to.
Bottom line, your browser's security features should do what they claim: delete cookies. When they come back without ever even visiting another page, this is clearly not working in the way a reasonable user would expect.
Bottom line, Safari does not protect users' privacy in the way it pretends to and, after so many years of this issue, it appears that Apple wants it this way.
Having spent way too much time on this, I realize the choice is between Safari which is pretty well optimized; Firefox which is a lot pokier, at least for me; and Chrome, which I assume funnels personal information directly to Google. -
Question
Emails sent to me are sometime returned to the sender with the message "Inbox full" even though I have maybe less than 100 emails in the Inbox and I regularly compact them. I delete emails from the Inbox and the Sent and Trash boxes to overcome this. How can I increase the storage space to stop this happening?Hi terrybohle1938,
Firefox is a web browser. It provides access to online content. Things like your email are handled by the content provider. Who is your email provider? You'll have better luck consulting their documentation.
That being said, deleting only email is a great way to free up space. Another option would be to purchase a "Premium" account if your email provider offers this service. Many times more storage space is offered as part of paid subscription.
Hopefully this helps! -
I have lost my iphone 3. I have placed it in Lost Mode however it is only showing my last location at 7 pm last night. How can i see the last 24 hours? it is in Grey so not on..
Find My iPhone only keeps a history of locations after you put it in lost mode. It also has to be online to provide an updated location.
