Over 30GB of 'other' memory!!!???

Ok, so I have a 120GB ipod classic. This morning i plugged it into itunes and itunes stated that it cannot read the hardware so it has to be restored. I then restored it (which took AGES) and when it's finished restoring it, it now has 30GB of 'other' memory!???? How did this happen, and does anyone know how to fix this. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Hi, welcome to Apple Discussions.
"Other" is the measure of used space on the iPod not taken up by Audio, Video & Photos. This includes the iPod's library and artwork plus any files you may have copied to your iPod in disk mode. The overhead for the library & artwork data is typically 1-2% of the size of the media, e.g. for 100Gb of Audio & Video expect to have around 1.5Gb of "Other". This information is needed for the iPod's operation and cannot be removed.
If you have significantly larger amounts of "Other", not related to files you've intentionally placed on the iPod, then these are probably disconnected copies of your media files or iPod libraries left over from failed sync operations. The only way to recover the space is to do a full restore.
If restore isn't reclaiming all the space then it may pay to use Windows to format the iPod's drive first.
The following may also help when it comes to putting data back onto the device.
*Break up large transfers*
In iTunes select the menu item *File... New Smart Playlist*. Change the first drop-down box to Playlist, the next to is and the next to Music or whatever playlist holds the bulk of the content you want on your device. Tick against *Limit to*, type in say 10, then change the drop-down to GB, and set the last drop-down to artist. When you click OK you can enter a name for the playlist, e.g. Transfer. Now sync this playlist to your iPod rather than your entire library. When the sync is complete modify the rule ( *File... Edit playlist* ) to increase the size by your chosen amount, then sync and repeat. You can experiment with different size increments, if it doesn't work just choose something a bit smaller until it works each time. Before long you should have all your music on your iPod. Once that's done you can move on to other media such as podcasts, videos, photos, playlists etc.

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.

How do move what is on my startup memory over to the other memory modules?

I installed extra memory into my Mac. I have used up all of the start up memory (per the notice that comes up every time memory is tried to be accessed). How do move what is on my startup memory over to the other memory modules?

Activity Monitor's window shows the RAM being used; it does not show how much of your hard drive is being used. Here is how you find out how much of your hard drive is being used:
control click on your hard drive icon and you will get a Get Info window like this:
On my MBP, the hard drive is 239 GB of which 59 GB are used and 179 GB are available.
Please post your hard drive get info screenshot.

Over 30gb of "Other" Storage

My ipad 2 has over 30gb of used other space on it.
I tried clearing my music off the ipad and then it turned into "other". There is now no music on the ipad and the space is used.
How can I get rid of it?

Here are a few things to try before biting the bullet and Restore-ing: http://www.bidnessetc.com/30012-how-to-clear-up-other-storage-on-your-apple-ipho ne-or-ipad/2/

Other memory how to remove

I have just upgraded the software on my iphpone 4 and spent ages trying to remove over 8gig of 'other' memory that arrived after the upgrade. I couldn't sync most stuff due to insufficiant memory
I have at last reduced it to .3 gig by unticking all but apps, syncing and then ticking other items (music, photes etc) then syncing again
What has caused this, is it an Apple bug? .

Good day all,
I have a 4S that had 5+G of "other" that I was trying to free up. I searched and searched, tried all the suggestions and had no success. I tried a full restore and freed up the memory but didn't want to loose all my settings, app folders, etc. After a process of elimination the solution that worked for me was to delete txt messages! When I went from the 3G to the 4S I restored from a back up. I've never delete any of my txt message history... so all that information, photos, videos, etc were being caried from one device to the other for like 3 years!
I started with a test. Pluged in my 4S, synced it. Registered 5.2GB of "other". I ejected the phone from itunes. I deleted my wifes txt message (with whom I txt the most). I plugged back in and "other" dropped down by an entire Gig!! So, I tried again with another that I txt often... and sure enough when down another Gig.
So, I decided to take the plug and start off fresh... I deleted ALL of my txt messages and my "other" memory went down to .52gigs!
This is why a FULL restore has been successful for those trying to clear out "other" memory. When you initiate a Full restore, you are cleaning out your entire memory of txt messages which includes large files of photos and videos!
So this is what worked for me folks! I hope it helps someone!

2 questions; how to erase "other memory" on iphone 5 and how to sync to a new computer

Apple support is failing to help my issues so I thought its best to turn to the community. OK so I've talked to Apple before about my "other memory" and I performed a soft reset on my phone and it decreased other memory by maybe a gig. A month later now its higher than it was before at over 5.6 gigs, any way how to make it as little as possible?
Also I just got a new macbook pro and I use to sync my iphone 5 to my macbook (2008), how do I make my macbook pro my primary itunes and still keep all my info on my phone? My new macbook pro itunes says its backed up, but when I plug it in it won't sync any new songs or app data to my itunes, etc.
Any help with these issues will much be appreciated!!

"Other" is all of the data for all of the built in apps. If you delete its contents all of your built in app data will disappear. Some of what is contained in other:
email messages and attachments
Reminders
Calendar entries
Contacts
Text messages
MMS messages and attachments
Genius data
Music cover art
Operating system settings
Safari cache
bookmarks
Game Center status
Music catalog
Probably a few I've missed. There was a problem in an earlier version where deleted MMS messages left behind their attachments, but that has been fixed as of 6.1. Some people suggest deleting your music on the phone. DON'T DO IT! The reason that deleting music recovers some Other space is because it deletes cover art. But is also screws up your music, which will no longer play correctly.
You will find posts from people who said they recovered over 1 GB of space by just deleting old text messages.
If you want Other to be smaller you will have to keep less data on your phone; delete old MMS and texts, delete old email (especially from the "deleted" folder), clear the cache, eliminate cover art.
Your Other is so large, however, that there may be corrupt data contained in it (unless you send a lot of MMS messages with large attachments). If this is the case you should restore the phone as New.
=====================
For your other question, the easiest way is to copy your iTunes library folder from the old computer to the new computer. For the hard way, see: Syncing to a "New" Computer or replacing a "crashed" Hard Drive

Is ther a way to speed up a Mac? Mine has gotten slower and slower over time. When memory comes close to full would that have an effect on performance? Is there a way to determine unused programs/software to remove and free space?

Things You Can Do To Resolve Slow Downs
If your computer seems to be running slower here are some things you can do:
Start with visits to:     OS X Maintenance - MacAttorney;
                                  The X Lab: The X-FAQs;
                                  The Safe Mac » Mac Performance Guide;
                                  The Safe Mac » The myth of the dirty Mac;
                                  Mac maintenance Quick Assist.
Boot into Safe Mode then repair your hard drive and permissions:
Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions Pre-Lion
Boot from your OS X Installer disc. After the installer loads select your language and click on the Continue button. When the menu bar appears select Disk Utility from the Utilities menu. After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list. In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive. If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported click on the Repair Permissions button. Wait until the operation completes, then quit DU and return to the installer.
Repair the Hard Drive - Lion/Mountain Lion/Mavericks
Boot to the Recovery HD:
Restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the COMMAND and R keys until the Utilites Menu screen appears. Alternatively, restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the OPTION key until the boot manager screen appears. Select the Recovery HD disk icon and click on the arrow button below.
When the recovery menu appears select Disk Utility. After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list. In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive. If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported, then click on the Repair Permissions button. Wait until the operation completes, then quit DU and return to the main menu. Select Restart from the Apple menu.
Restart your computer normally and see if this has helped any. Next do some maintenance:
For situations Disk Utility cannot handle the best third-party utility is Disk Warrior; DW only fixes problems with the disk directory, but most disk problems are caused by directory corruption; Disk Warrior 4.x is now Intel Mac compatible.
Note: Alsoft ships DW on a bootable DVD that will startup Macs running Snow Leopard or earlier. It cannot start Macs that came with Lion or later pre-installed, however, DW will work on those models.
Suggestions for OS X Maintenance
OS X performs certain maintenance functions that are scheduled to occur on a daily, weekly, or monthly period. The maintenance scripts run in the early AM only if the computer is turned on 24/7 (no sleep.) If this isn't the case, then an excellent solution is to download and install a shareware utility such as Macaroni, JAW PseudoAnacron, or Anacron that will automate the maintenance activity regardless of whether the computer is turned off or asleep. Dependence upon third-party utilities to run the periodic maintenance scripts was significantly reduced since Tiger. These utilities have limited or no functionality with Snow Leopard or later and should not be installed.
OS X automatically defragments files less than 20 MBs in size, so unless you have a disk full of very large files there's little need for defragmenting the hard drive.
Helpful Links Regarding Malware Protection
An excellent link to read is Tom Reed's Mac Malware Guide.
Also, visit The XLab FAQs and read Detecting and avoiding malware and spyware.
See these Apple articles:
          Mac OS X Snow Leopard and malware detection
          OS X Lion- Protect your Mac from malware
          OS X Mountain Lion- Protect your Mac from malware
          About file quarantine in OS X
If you require anti-virus protection I recommend using VirusBarrier Express 1.1.6 or Dr.Web Light both from the App Store. They're both free, and since they're from the App Store, they won't destabilize the system. (Thank you to Thomas Reed for these recommendations.)
Troubleshooting Applications
I recommend downloading a utility such as TinkerTool System, OnyX, Mavericks Cache Cleaner, or Cocktail that you can use for removing old log files and archives, clearing caches, etc. Corrupted cache, log, or temporary files can cause application or OS X crashes as well as kernel panics.
If you have Snow Leopard or Leopard, then for similar repairs install the freeware utility Applejack. If you cannot start up in OS X, you may be able to start in single-user mode from which you can run Applejack to do a whole set of repair and maintenance routines from the command line. Note that AppleJack 1.5 is required for Leopard. AppleJack 1.6 is compatible with Snow Leopard. Applejack does not work with Lion and later.
Basic Backup
For some people Time Machine will be more than adequate. Time Machine is part of OS X. There are two components:
1. A Time Machine preferences panel as part of System Preferences;
2. A Time Machine application located in the Applications folder. It is
    used to manage backups and to restore backups. Time Machine
    requires a backup drive that is at least twice the capacity of the
    drive being backed up.
Alternatively, get an external drive at least equal in size to the internal hard drive and make (and maintain) a bootable clone/backup. You can make a bootable clone using the Restore option of Disk Utility. You can also make and maintain clones with good backup software. My personal recommendations are (order is not significant):
1. Carbon Copy Cloner
2. Get Backup
3. Deja Vu
4. SuperDuper!
5. Synk Pro
6. Tri-Backup
Visit The XLab FAQs and read the FAQ on backup and restore. Also read How to Back Up and Restore Your Files. For help with using Time Machine visit Pondini's Time Machine FAQ for help with all things Time Machine.
Referenced software can be found at MacUpdate.
Additional Hints
Be sure you have an adequate amount of RAM installed for the number of applications you run concurrently. Be sure you leave a minimum of 10% of the hard drive's capacity as free space.
Add more RAM. If your computer has less than 2 GBs of RAM and you are using OS X Leopard or later, then you can do with more RAM. Snow Leopard and Lion work much better with 4 GBs of RAM than their system minimums. The more concurrent applications you tend to use the more RAM you should have.
Always maintain at least 15 GBs or 10% of your hard drive's capacity as free space, whichever is greater. OS X is frequently accessing your hard drive, so providing adequate free space will keep things from slowing down.
Check for applications that may be hogging the CPU:
Pre-Mavericks
Open Activity Monitor in the Utilities folder. Select All Processes from the Processes dropdown menu. Click twice on the CPU% column header to display in descending order. If you find a process using a large amount of CPU time (>=70,) then select the process and click on the Quit icon in the toolbar. Click on the Force Quit button to kill the process. See if that helps. Be sure to note the name of the runaway process so you can track down the cause of the problem.
Mavericks and later
Open Activity Monitor in the Utilities folder. Select All Processes from the View menu. Click on the CPU tab in the toolbar. Click twice on the CPU% column header to display in descending order. If you find a process using a large amount of CPU time (>=70,) then select the process and click on the Quit icon in the toolbar. Click on the Force Quit button to kill the process. See if that helps. Be sure to note the name of the runaway process so you can track down the cause of the problem.
Often this problem occurs because of a corrupted cache or preferences file or an attempt to write to a corrupted log file.

Why is number taking over 1 g of memory ?

i have been motitoring my memory and I see the I work and Apeture in combination with I tune is taking over 2 G of memory and Slowing down the computer I have a macpro Mid 2010 quad core with 16 G and is slow

Numbers seems to take up a lot of memory. I have Mac Book Pro, 15-inch, Early 2011 with 16 GB of RAM and Numbers is using 800.5MB. I see it as high as 1.5GB.
Not sure anyone here can answer your question. You can post feedback to Apple using the menu item:
"Numbers > Provide Numbers Feedback"
To assess performance I launch Activity Monitor in the folder "/Applications/Utilities" and I watch RAM usage and CPU usage

What is this Wine that takes over 100 MB of memory running on root on my computer?

What is this Wine that takes over 100 MB of memory running under root on my computer?

The only apps I have installed since purchasing are Mac Keeper and the most recent version of Caffeine.
Also, wine is running by itself, and it is there going when I first turn the computer on. I can shut it down through activity monitor, though.
When I look at the process heirarchically, though, it shows up.
The process heirarchy looks like this: launchd -> AntiVirus -> wine and nothing is running under wine.

I found a post with this solution that worked for me - .Do a backup, then download ibackupbot. It lets you look into the contents of that backup. Look in system files>mediadomain>library>sms>attachments. I found a ton of huge files related to long deleted texts. ibackupbot let me delete all that old crap. I then restored the phone with that now modifec backup and Bingo! freed up 9 GB. No problems.
But note, if you are not technically inclined you probaly don't want to be digging around and deleting back up files. You delete the wrong thing and you could jack up your phone badly. Be careful.

Error 1156 when synching iPad 1 - 41Gb over capacity on 'Other'!

Hi
I've suddently got a problem synching my 64Gb iPad 1 today with error 1156. It says I am 41Gb over capacity on 'Other'. I don't know where it's getting this from as on the iPad itself it says it has 54Gb used on it and 4Gb available. On iTunes though it says I have 45Gb on Audio (which is about right), a fraction on video and books (again about right) and now 54Gb on 'Other'! When I look through all the Apps I am using though, doing a quick add up of the memory used only comes to about a few Gbs at most.
Anyone know what's going on here?
Thanks
Tim

If it come back, the only way to get rid of such a big other is restoring the device. Either it's documents from programs which you can check under settings, usage, and selecting the program. If you think it's "not right" it's most likely corrupt data, which can be fixed by a restore.

please help. this issue prevents music from syncing. I have set the sync setting to convert songs to 192kbps AAC to save space, I figure that could slow the sync
down, but it's hanging indefinitely (I've left it for 24 hours with out it completing.)
the the only music that appears on the phone are songs purchased from the iTunes Store. 95% of my collection are rips from my CDs.
thank you for any help!

Yeah it's pretty sad that $1000 phone they put out you such cheap memory It causes issues, I have iPhone 6+128 GB actually this is the second brand-new one they gave me because they keep affording it trying to act like that's not the issue because they're too stupid to know how to check what memory is in each one before they give it to me when I have told them multiple times my back up runs perfectly fine on two 5s phones and a 6 64GB of course running MLC memory.
I told them it's because just like the write ups say I have 809 apps but I have not even put all my music on the phone so I'm still running 50 to 60 gigs free and it crashes and reboots itself sometimes in multitasking and more often than it does that in between multitasking I get a black screen for 1 to 2 seconds in between apps and upon start up the Apple logo screen will flicker and do weird things, One of the genius idiots asked me if I could just delete some of my apps, really that's the answer to fix the phone the customer needs to limit the amount to apps they put on their phone, why the **** get a 128 gig if you can't put on anything you want to it guess they need to start selling them saying you can only put a limited number of apps on them, it's really is a **** joke, I have over $20,000 of Apple merchandise easily and always get the new phone every year but I'm starting to reconsider my decisions in the future because this company is starting to go downhill, The reason water not recalling the phones is because they're dealing with their top-of-the-line thousand dollar phones in this case and most people don't have over two or 300 apps so they're not having as many issues, so basically they have messed up phones they just don't know it in their hands and Apple is just too **** greedy to recall the phones, they'd rather sell customer spends that only work half ***.
Stuff like this will be the downfall of their company, all the people that stay with them because as long as you don't jailbreak their stuff it normally just works without issue will be soon jumping ship if stuff like this keeps up, because I can guarantee they got me thinking now.
not that I wanted to know or should I be expected to but I even offered for them to open up my brand-new phone and just replace the memory to MLC memory which is something I shouldn't have to do with a brand-new **** phone, they should just make one with the right memory and give me a new phone, actually just don't sell customers that buy the top-of-the-line phone from you trash ones in the first place that would be a great option.
what burns me up the most is when you talk to AppleCare and Genius Bar they try to act like the issue isn't there and they're unaware of it, they say that Apple hasn't come out with any information about it, yeah that's because they don't want to recall the trash.
Apple has became nothing better than your run-of-the-mill company, android is becoming just as good as they are sad to say this since I have been an Apple fan for so long but there is no excuse for BS like this they have been looking for options to fix my phone for a month now this is not the way you should treat loyal customers, I would've been better off keeping my 5S and in the future just switching to android.
it's pretty sad that the company has no idea how to check which memory is in their **** phone and even after I offered to let them just replace the memory in my new phone by opening up my brand-new phone to replace it they have no idea how to do that either, yeah Genius Bar sure, I think that should change the name to idiot bar and Apple don't care instead of Apple care.

When I sync my iPhone to itunes it shows over 7GB of "other" files.

My phone has been showing a "full" status and when I synced it I saw that no matter how many songs and apps I deleted, the "other" category kept growing. My brother told me about a trick to swipe the "music" section in the "about/ usage" setting and this seemed to get rid of the "other" but it also seemed to mess up my music player app- it keeps skipping through my songs.
I have attempted to fix it using this again but it has not worked. I have over 7GB of "other" files, my voice memos are no longer on my playlist despite selecting it to sync. I also seem to have lost over 200 songs which will not sync. I have only ever purchased music via itunes.
My phone continues to warn me that it is full but I do not know how to get rid of the "other" category. I am surprised to find out that apple charges $35 to get support. Wow.
Any help on this would be great, because I seem to have lost access to my music, I've lost important voice memos, my music app is not playing properly, and my phone continues to warn me that it is full.
Thank you.

I should mention that I also did a restore hoping that would solve the problem but it did not, and it was after this that I lost some of my music.

My iPod 5th gen. doesn't have a back camera. Can I trade it in for one that does have a back camera? If I can, can I keep all my pictures and have them switched over to the other one?

If you purchased it from Apple within the last 14 days then you can return it for a full refund. otherwise no. If you purchased it elsewhere you have to check with them.

How can I delete over 3GB of "other" data?

So my iPhone 5 is a 16GB (or 13.3GB I believe, thanks apple) and it says I've used 3.37GB of this mysterious "other" data.
I have been going through and reading other people's responces to similar questions, and it seems like the main conclusion is to back up my iPhone, either to iCloud or my computer, and restore it as new. I've been trying to do everything but this, because I don't want to lose the data like my contacts and notes, but I cannot back up my phone because I have used too much space to back up, and I'm not going to buy extra space just to back up my phone to delete this data. Clearly one of Apple's problems they have yet to fix, unless they are doing this to make you buy more space and they can get more money. Regardless, we all get over that flaw in their products.
Another popular responce I was getting was to go to Settings > Safari > Clear Cookies and Data and proceeding through with that. Of course, wanting to get my "other" data back down to the regular amount (under 1GB) I did clear the cookies and data, as well as cleared my history (which is right above the Clear Cookies and Data option), however I am still stuck with over 3GB of other.
In responce to almost all of these posts was something about your apps. I have three apps on my phone, and I had deleted them off my phone to try and free up space. Honestly, I don't even think I got half of a GB back from deleting the apps. I understand that my phone is now made up of photos and corrupt files. But how do these corrupt files even get created? If I can somehow stop them from being created in the future, believe me, I will do so.
I have gone and deleted my text messages and emails, since people say that the space is taken up mostly by SMS and MMS messaging, and I think that got me almost 1GB of space. I did this last night, before I plugged my phone into the computer and checked the "other" amount on iTunes. Is there an alternative to restoring my phone as new to delete this data? Can someone please tell me if there is, because I'm just getting fed up with having to constantly delete things off of my phone to open up more space.

You should be importing pictures from the camera roll to your computer on a regular basis. Even if you don't want to keep them, at the end of the import, most photo managers give you the option to delete the photos from the camera.
If you're using a PC running Windows, just plug the phone in. Open Windows Explorer. You should see the phone there, and under that, the DCIM folder where the photos are stored.
Transfer them if you want to keep them or just delete them.
There is no easy way to mass delete them on the phone itself.
