Over 1 Gb of "Other"? What the...?!?

I have a new 2nd gen, and I just loaded it with about 3 Gb of music. I also have about 125 Mb of apps loaded, and about 7 Mb of pics. When looking at the "summary" section of iTunes, it shows 1.34 Gb of "other." I have no idea what that is. I cleared out the Safari cache and looked again, but it stayed the same. Anyone have some idea as to what that might be? As I'm sure you can imagine, losing that much memory to something "unknown" is upsetting...

I have the same problem....cept i only have like 100MB of other.....if ur downloading music from a third party, it could be information attached to the file. I am still not certain wut it is for sure tho

    How to Remove “Other” Data from iPhone, iPad and iPod Touch
    http://www.igeeksblog.com/how-to-remove-other-data-from-iphone/
    With an iOS device, the “Other” space in iTunes is used to store things like documents, settings, caches, and a few other important items. If you sync lots of documents to apps like GoodReader, DropCopy, or anything else that reads external files, your storage use can skyrocket. With iOS 5/6/7, you can see exactly which applications are taking up the most space. Just head to Settings > General > Usage, and tap the button labeled Show All Apps. The storage section will show you the app and how much storage space it is taking up. Tap on the app name to get a description of the additional storage space being used by the app’s documents and data. You can remove the storage-hogging application and all of its data directly from this screen, or manually remove the data by opening the app. Some applications, especially those designed by Apple, will allow you to remove stored data by swiping from left to right on the item to reveal a Delete button.

  • Help!! I was trying to delete an album from iTunes and I accidentally deleted over 300 songs, idk what the **** I did

    I thought I was ust deleting one album from iTunes but I must have accidently hit the shift button or something becasue it deleted over 300 songs and now I can't get them out of the trash and back into iTunes, any suggestions? Be warned I am "technoligically ********!"

    Are the songs still found in the finder -> Music -> iTunes -> iTunes Media -> Music?
    If so, you might be able to import them again from there, else you can try to move the songs from your trash to an other folder.

  • What the advantages of having an BAPI over Other data migrations

    What the advantages of having an BAPI over Other data migrations

    Th advantages of BAPI
    1. Simple to use (its just an FM)
    2. Not cumbersome like bdc
    where we have to record each and every screen
    sequence.
    3. SAP guarantees the consistency
    of bapi in future releases.
    One of the big plusses for BAPIs is that the interface and function are not supposed to change. This is a big plus when you do upgrades or hot packs because the transaction can change (format, required inputs etc) which means you then need to update the call transaction.
    Some of the BAPIs are better documented and easier to use than others.
    You usually need to perform the BAPI that actually does the COMMIT after you call your BAPI.
    The Program coding for calling a BAPI is usually cleaner than setting up the screen flow etc for the Call Transaction.
    You don't need to worry about special data circumstances interrupting the normal data flow of the screens and causing errors because of that.
    BAPIs probably have better performance since they don't do the screen flow processing.
    In general if the BAPI exists for the transaction you want to perform and you can figure out how to use it the BAPI is probably the best way to go.
    This is just from my experience working with both BAPI and Call Transaction. I have had some very good successes with BAPIs, but very occasionally found that I could not get the BAPI to perform the update I needed.
    Refer the transaction BAPI for detail information.

    Basic learning guide:
    http://searchsap.techtarget.com/originalContent/0,289142,sid21_gci948835,00.html
    BAPI intro:
    http://www.sappoint.com/abap/bapiintro.pdf
    Overview:
    http://www.planetsap.com/Bapi_main_page.htm
    Also have a look at the following link :
    http://www.planetsap.com/LIST_ALL_BAPIs.htm
    Go through the following Document
    Bapi to create customer master
    BAPI_CUSTOMER_CREATEFROMDATA
    BAPI_CUSTOMER_CREATEFROMDATA1
    Or you can use FM SD_CUSTOMER_MAINTAIN_ALL
    what is BAPI?
    BAPI stands for Business API(Application Program Interface).
    A BAPI is remotely enabled function module
    ie it can be invoked from remote programs like standalone JAVA programs, web interface etc..
    You can make your function module remotely enabled in attributes of Function module but
    A BAPI are standard SAP function modules provided by SAP for remote access.
    Also they are part of Businees Objest Repository(BOR).
    BAPI are RFC enabled function modules. the difference between RFc and BAPI are business objects.
    You create business objects and those are then registered in your BOR (Business Object Repository)
    which can be accessed outside the SAP system by using some other applications (Non-SAP) such as VB or JAVA.
    In this case u only specify the business object and its method from external system
    in BAPI there is no direct system call. while RFC are direct system call.
    Some BAPIs provide basic functions and can be used for most SAP business object types.
    These BAPIs should be implemented the same for all business object types.
    Standardized BAPIs are easier to use and prevent users having to deal with a number of different BAPIs.
    Whenever possible, a standardized BAPI must be used in preference to an individual BAPI.
    The following standardized BAPIs are provided:
    Reading instances of SAP business objects
    GetList ( ) With the BAPI GetList you can select a range of object key values,
    for example, company codes and material numbers.
    The BAPI GetList() is a class method.
    GetDetail() With the BAPI GetDetail() the details of an instance of a business object type are retrieved
    and returned to the calling program.
    The instance is identified via its key.
    The BAPI GetDetail() is an instance method.
    BAPIs that can create, change or delete instances of a business object type
    The following BAPIs of the same object type have to be programmed
    so that they can be called several times within one transaction.
    For example, if, after sales order 1 has been created, a second sales order 2 is created in the same transaction,
    the second BAPI call must not affect the consistency of the sales order 2.
    After completing the transaction with a COMMIT WORK, both the orders are saved consistently in the database.
    Create( ) and CreateFromData! ( )
    The BAPIs Create() and CreateFromData() create an instance of an SAP business object type,
    for example, a purchase order. These BAPIs are class methods.
    Change( )
    The BAPI Change() changes an existing instance of an SAP business object type,
    for example, a purchase order. The BAPI Change () is an instance method.
    Delete( ) and Undelete( ) The BAPI Delete() deletes an instance of an SAP business object type from the database
    or sets a deletion flag.
    The BAPI Undelete() removes a deletion flag. These BAPIs are instance methods.
    Cancel ( ) Unlike the BAPI Delete(), the BAPI Cancel() cancels an instance of a business object type.
    The instance to be cancelled remains in the database and an additional instance is created
    and this is the one that is actually canceled. The Cancel() BAPI is an instance method.
    Add<subobject> ( ) and Remove<subobject> ( ) The BAPI Add<subobject> adds a subobject to an existing object inst!
    ance and the BAPI and Remove<subobject> removes a subobject from an object instance.
    These BAPIs are instance methods.

    Java Connector(JCO) can call not only BAPI's but also the function modules which are remotely enabled..
    BAPI's as i said earlier are remotely enabled function modules..
    Hence, JCO can call also BAPI's(n not only BAPI's as u mentioned).
    Check the following BDC over BAPI
    The steps to be followed are :
    1. Find out the relevant BAPI (BAPI_SALESORDER_CHANGE for VA02).
    [for VA01 use BAPI_SALESORDER_CREATEFROMDAT2]
    2. Create a Z program and call the BAPi (same as a Funtion module call).
    2. Now, if you see this BAPi, it has
    -> Importing structures.
    eg: SALESDOCUMENT: this will take the Sales order header data as input.
    -> Tables parameters:
    eg: ORDER_ITEM_IN: this will take the line item data as input.
    Note :
    Only specify fields that should be changed
    Select these fields by entering an X in the checkboxes
    Enter a U in the UPDATEFLAG field
    Always specify key fields when changing the data, including in the checkboxes
    The configuration is an exception here. If this needs to be changed, you need to complete it again fully.
    Maintain quantities and dates in the schedule line data
    Possible UPDATEFLAGS:
    U = change
    D = delete
    I = add
    Example
    1. Delete the whole order
    2. Delete order items
    3. Change the order
    4. Change the configuration
    Notes
    1. Minimum entry:
    You must enter the order number in the SALESDOCUMENT structure.
    You must always enter key fields for changes.
    You must always specify the update indicator in the ORDER_HEADER_INX.
    2. Commit control:
    The BAPI does not run a database Commit, which means that the application must trigger the Commit
    so that the changes are read to the database. To do this, use the BAPI_TRANSACTION_COMMIT BAPI.
    For further details... refer to the Function Module documentation for the BAPi.

    I have a first generation iPad and the screen went completely green on me and locked up.  I was able to unlock it, but now there's a green haze all over the screen.  Anyone know what the issue could be and how I can get it fixed?

    Try this  - Reset the iPad by holding down on the Sleep and Home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons. (This is equivalent to rebooting your computer.)
    Out-of-Warranty Service
         If you own an iPad that is ineligible for warranty service but is eligible for Out-of-Warranty (OOW) Service, Apple will replace (Apple doesn't repair) your iPad with an iPad that is new or equivalent to new in both performance and reliability for the Out-of-Warranty Service fee listed below. (The replacement will most likely be a refurbished iPad in a brown box, however, it has a new screen, back and battery.)   
    iPad model
    Out-of-Warranty Service Fee
    iPad mini
    $219
    iPad 3rd, 4th generation
    $299
    iPad 2, iPad
    $249
    A $6.95 shipping fee will be added if service is arranged through Apple and requires shipping. All fees are in US dollars and are subject to local tax.
    Certain damage is ineligible for out-of-warranty service, including catastrophic damage, such as the device separating into multiple pieces, and inoperability caused by unauthorized modifications. However, an iPad that has failed due to contact with liquid may be eligible for out-of-warranty service. See http://support.apple.com/kb/index?page=servicefaq&geo=United_States&product=ipad

  • How do i find out what the inforamtion that is stored under "other" in my ipad2 is?

    What is "Other"
    It’s generally a combination of local caches from apps, browsers, mail, Messages, Reading List, saved games, app-specific documents and data, notes, and voice memos.
    You can backup and restore to reduce "other" but they will start building up over time.

    I had restored my iPhone 5 to factory settings and that cleared the problematic "Other" problem.  Flash forward a couple weeks and the problem has once again resurfaced.
    I tried updating iTunes and iOS to the newest versions and the problem still persists.
    I'm officially ready to switch to Windows Phone or Android now...

    A Google search with results restricted to the last month shows that this problem seems to be becoming more and more common.

    ghlighting a file and then moving cursor over a file lower in the list, and pressing shift-control-click. I can't do that in now with Mac Pro.  What am I doing wrong?

    Holding down the control key will invoke "right-click."
    Depending on the View, holding down Shift will with either toggle the selection (Icon View), or it will make a continuous selection from the previous selection (List View or Column View).
    The only way to make a continuous selection in Icon View is to drag out a selection marquee around or through the icons.
