Question: Inconsistency in Icloud between total and available spaces.

Dear all,
First of all, thank you for read this topic and please kindly give me information or advise if you can.
Right now, my Iphone 4s was reset accidentally and all data were gone without any backup in Itune but I thought I have backup some in Icloud. After it was reset, I tried to restore with Icloud but nothing was found. Then, I came back to check space in Icloud (setting > Icloud > storage & Backup) and found that total space is 5.0 GB but available space is 355 MB, meaning that space around 4 GB are used for backing up something. So, this point is so strange. Icloud said nothing was backed up but my Icloud space has been used for 4GB.
Could anyone advise for data backing up and answer this problem for me?
Also, please kindly let me know how can I get storage 4GB back.
Thank youso much in advance,
Yong

  • Usage in My Verizon alternates between used and available

    At least that is what it appears to do.  When I refresh the screen in My Verizon, it appears to flip between used and available.
    Very Strange Behavior indeed...

    I'm not sure what you mean by "flip between used and available" - I have a line graph that is the total allowance, then a green bar indicating usage...   the numbers on the right show what I have used out of my total allowance, and the graph is a visual representation of the numbers.

    In order to use your Apple ID to create an iCloud account, the primary email address associated with the ID must first be verified.  To do this, Apple will send a verification email to your account and you must respond to the email by clicking the Verify Now link.  Make sure you are check the spam/junk folder as well as the inbox.  If it isn't there, go to https://appleid.apple.com, click Manage your Apple ID, sign in, click on Name, ID and Email addresses on the left, then to the right click Resend under your Primary Email Address to resend the verification email.

  • My podcasts will not sync (icloud) between PC and iphone 4s and ipad 2

    My podcasts will not sync (icloud) between PC and iphone 4s and ipad 2. Any help would be greatly appreciated. 

    Make sure you are using ios 6.1 or later not 6.0.1 (or older). Your iTunes Notes setting for iPad and iPhone in iCloud. Also Notes setting in both devices are in iCloud.
    My New iPad using 6.1 and iPhone 4S using 6.1.2. No problem sync Notes on both devices.
    I hope this can help.

  • TS4006 when using iCloud between mac and pad, what does this mean - "your iPad will  no longer back up to your computer automatically when you sync with iTunes"

    when using iCloud between mac and pad, what does this mean - "your iPad will  no longer back up to your computer automatically when you sync with iTunes"
    DONT WORRY EVERYONE, FOUND THE ANSWER I NEEDED FROM ANOTHER POSTING - THANK YOU

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    You don't need to do anything, you have chosen to back up to iCloud instead of iTunes.
    Being able to back up to the cloud can be very useful, especially if you don't have access to a computer or have infrequent access to one, however unless you specifically need to use iCloud for back up, you will find backing up to iTunes significantly more convenient and possibly more reliable.

  • Question about bluetooth communication between PC and mobile device

    I am a newbie of bluetooth communication. This time I need to have connumication between PC and mobile device (mainly mobile phone) by sending strings. PC is acted as server and mobile device act as client.
    For using bluetooth in PC, I use bluecove 2.0.1
    I have already connected them successfully.
    When I want to send strings between them, it is found that it can only do one cycle of communication (client -> server -> client).
    For my design, they can communicate multiple times.
    I simulate the core class of the system, the performance is fine.
    Cound anyone help me to watch the code and give me some advices?

    i haven't worked with devices but only with the toolkit emulators;
    it definitely is possible...
    u have to send the image as a bytestream and receive the image at the jsp end...
    and then reconstruct the image.
    the Stream classes in J2ME AND J2SE are all u will require.
    also the Image class.
    i have not done this but i have successfully sent an image frm a jsp and displayed it on the emulator.

  • ICloud between Laptop and PC

    Hi I am English living in Spain.
    I have a iPod Touch 1st generation which is unable to support iCloud.  Is there any way that I can use iCloud between my laptop which is supported by Windows Vista and my desktop PC which is Windows 8.  I want to be able to share contacts and calendar.
    Thanks.

    You can not create an iCloud account using Windows, so the answer is no. Use a different service, Gmail will work and will provide Contact and Calendars as well as Email.

  • Data Inconsistency for 0EMPLOYEE between ECC and BI

    Hi,
    We do a full load to 0EMPLOYEE using 0EMPLOYEE_ATTR from ECC. There were records deleted for lot of employees (some action types) in ECC. This has caused data inconsistency for 0EMPLOYEE master data (time-dependent) between ECC and BI. In BI we have more records for these employees (Additional records have time-dependent range that were deleted from ECC but still exist in BI). These employee records are already being used in lot of InfoProviders. Is there an efficient way to fix this issue? One of the solution is to delete data from all InfoProviders and then delete from Master data for 0EMPLOYEE, but the deletion of employee records can happen quite often, so we don't want to take this route. Also, I tried to re-organize master data attributes for 0EMPLOYEE through process chain, but that didn't work either.

    Hi Ripel,
    I share your pain. This is one of the real pains of Time-Dependant master data in BW. I have been in your exact position and the only way round the issue for me was to clear out all the cubes that used 0EMPLOYEE and then delete and re-load 0EMPLOYEE data.
    I know this responce doesn't help you but at least you are not alone.

  • Pages not updating iCloud between iPad and IPhone

    Can somebody please help?
    My Pages app won't stream the current documents to my iPhone using iCloud .
    I've tried everything I could possibly do. I've deleted the Pages app off my iPhone and started again. It just won't update the current documents that reflect on my iPad.
    It just has the arrows pointing upwards on the top right hand corner of quite a few documents. This is suggesting that there is no Internet connection when there is. I've tried it over WiFi and on 2 separate Bluetooth pairings with 2 iPhones. Each time it is connected with the Internet but the arrows still suggest otherwise.
    I have turned every possible iCloud on in every area. Turned them off then on, reset my phone from scratch doing a clean install not using a previous back up. Still didn't work...  Then going back and resetting using a previous back up... Still didn't work :(
    I have a 6 month old Mac Mini, the latest iPhone  5 and one month old iPad 4 with the current software updates.....
    Please help
    Regards Gareth

    I believe you are misunderstanding.  You don't sync apps between iPad and iPhone, and iCloud has nothing to do with any of this.  There is a setting in Settings -> Store where you can set each device to automatically download NEW apps, meaning that when you buy a new app on one device, the other automatically downloads it.  However, this is for new downloads only.
    For your existing apps, you can simply connect each device to your computer and move the desired apps to it in iTunes.  Or you can go to the App Store and re-download those apps.

  • Question about the difference between HDDs and SSDs

    Hi. I currently have a MacBook (Black one) that's overheating a lot for the past few months. I'm thinking about purchasing a MacBook Pro for school because it seems to be more stable. I have a question though. What is the difference between HDDs and SSDs? Which one is better? All I know is that with my MacBook and my iBook is that I had hard drive failures (iBook hard drive clicking, MacBook hard drive sounding loud and making my computer overheat). Are hard drive failures normal with Macs?
    Thank you

    Depends what you mean by "better." Faster? Yes. The 500 has 3x more storage capacity.

  • Questions about the differences between Arch and Chakra.

    I'm trying to decide whether to install Arch or Chakra on my laptop. Currently, I'm running Arch on my desktop and Windows 7 on my laptop (which I plan to overwrite). My skill level with GNU/Linux is somewhat intermediate – noobs refer to me as an expert, experts refer to me as a noob. If it matters, I'm a KDE user and primarily use my computers for web browsing and python development. Anyway, I just wanted to get an objective opinion on the differences between Arch and Chakra. I have a few points that stand out to me, but I welcome any input.
    -Stability
    I started my journey into GNU/Linux with Debian back in 2009 due to it's stability. I really disliked Debian's ancient software and considered moving my system to Unstable. While doing some googling about Debian Unstable, I stumbled across Arch – it was love at first sight. I've been an Arch user ever since. I love the bleeding edge software, and haven't had any major problems since I originally installed it. However, every time I run a system update I cringe a little. While Arch hasn't broken on me yet, I've read plenty of horror stories and it makes me uneasy. I understand that Chakra is a mix between a point and rolling release model. Is it any more or less stable than Arch? I know there are other distrobutions out there, but I'm in love with the Arch philosophy.
    -Security
    Pretty self-explanatory, but is there any difference in security between the two?
    -AUR
    As much as I love Arch, I wouldn't be able to stand it if it weren't for the massive collection of software available in the AUR. While I'm perfectly capable of compiling software myself, I prefer to use a command like tool like yaourt to manage my software. I understand that Chakra doesn't officially support the AUR and that they have their own user repository. Seeing as Chakra is still relatively new, is it lacking? Will I miss the AUR as a Chakra user?
    -Repositories
    Is there much difference in the official repositories between the two distrobutions?

    -Stability...

    My take on Chakra is that it's the same as Arch with different developers.  They use pacman. They have a different and rather nice build system for their developers. They're doing a good job, but I'd hate to give up the services of Allan McRae who must work full time keeping the Archlinux core and toolchain up to date.  Chakra devs probably piggy-back off his work.
    As for "semi" rolling: I don't see Chakra as having a stable core.  A stable core sounds attractive, it would be like NetBSD which has a very stable core Unix operating system with apps added via pkgsrc.  But Chakra's core and toolchain is at the same version levels as Archlinux most of the time and are no more tested and stabilized than ours. Their core packages are updated piecemeal just like ours; there is no stable core that is released as a unit (afaik). Today Chakra has gcc 4.7 / glibc 2.15 just like ours. Their kernel is a little more stable: they're using udev 181 / linux 3.2.8 while Arch is on udev 182 / linux 3.3.7.  They are more conservative in upgrading xorg and the video drivers than Arch.  For example, today they're on xorg-server 1.10.4 / intel video 2.17 while Arch is up-to-the-bleeding-edge-minute with xorg-server 1.12.1.902 and intel video 2.19.  Yeah, I would consider Chakra to be a little more "stable" than Arch mainly because of their relaxed pace in changing the kernel and the xorg stuff.
    Most of the patches that I look at for Arch packages (I build my system entirely from source and try to build monthly releases for myself) are needed because we use more recent core packages like glib2/glibc/gcc than the developers of higher level stuff like qt.  Chakra is in the same situation.  We're on the front of the wave
    The Chakra CCR is compatible with the Arch AUR and mainly draws from AUR (an AUR buildscript will usually work fine on a Chakra system -- they just add one or two additional info fields.)  With a little effort you could get any package installed on a Chakra system that is available on Arch.

  • Question about load balancing between Portal and ABAP

    Hi,
    I have the problem whit load balancing between Portal and ECC (ERC) ABAP
    Exist two system:
    1) ECC (ERP) ABAP = Backend     Module = HR
    2) EP (JAVA) = Frontend
    The users (9000 users) logon in the EP and run query (data personal) in the ECC.  The problem to all user connect in Central Instance and not in the Dialog Instance.
    How can balancing the conecction HTTP (EP) to ECC (ABAP)??
    I need balancing in the ECC to Dialog Instance

    Jco -> right. Another possibility is that you use iviews that point to the backend in this case you will need to use a load balanced entry for the backend system in the [system landscape|http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw70ehp1/helpdata/en/47/8c1e438d7017fce10000000a42189c/frameset.htm] -> SAP_R3_LoadBalancing
    If you have ESS deployed on your portal, you will most probably need to do both.

  • Hard Drive Capacity Issue -- 51 GBs missing btwn utilized and avail space

    I have a 200MB internal hard drive.
    My SYSTEM PROFILER states:
    Capacity=185.99GB (which I understand due to system use, etc)
    Available= 26.25 GB (odd)
    This available space reading seemed odd as I don't have much data on the HD (transferred files using Migration Assistant from a 80gb, 1.67ghz older G4 laptop).
    So I went to the ACTIVITY MONITOR and looked at DISK USAGE at it states:
    Space Utilized= 99.14 GB
    Space Free= 25.85 GB
    With a total of 124.99 GB between the two (the adjacent pie chart total)
    MY QUESTION: If I have a HD with a capacity of 185.99 GB, with only 99.14 GB utilized, why is the space free missing 51 GBs? Where did this memory space go?
    Note: I have never partitioned the Hard Drive or created any sort of RAM Disk.
    Anyone? Please help.

    UPDATE BUT STILL NO ANSWER:
    Ran DISK UTILITY which fixed some minor errors and how states "Volume Macintosh HD appears to be OK"
    But the issue remains - I have a 200GB hard drive but the data at the bottom of this utility reads:
    Capacity : 186.0 GB (199,705,673,728 Bytes)
    Available : 26.3 GB (28,291,375,104 Bytes)
    Used : 98.6 GB (105,916,047,360 Bytes)
    Number of Folders: 173,085
    Number of Files: 886,070
    HOW CAN I ONLY HAVE 26.3GB available when I have only used 98.6GB of 186GB = Should be a 87.4 GB balance available, not 26.3 GB, right????????
    What is the deal here? Is this related to MobileMe or iPhone issue maybe?
    The hardware start-up test and disk utility test are all clean. Someone? Anyone?
    Thanks!

  • A question over the link between materials and substances

    Hello everyone,
    As we know, the data of substances in EHS module is connected to the data of materials in MM module.
    But If one material is a mixture, and it has several components of substances in it. How can I make several substances connected with one material in SAP release 6.0?
    And the 2nd question is:
    Is that possible to make one substance identified by several UN numbers?
    This is my first time to come here. I really hope that somebody could help me.
    Thank you in advance !
    Best regards,
    Li

    Hello Li
    regarding your question (hitlist display of more than one UN number per specification) => to my knowledge there is only a "workaround" possible.
    As explained by Jayakumar only one identifier per specification can be shown in hitlist. Please take a look in customizing: the number and type etc. of identifer shown in hitlist can be customized. The same is true in properties of type "composition/Spec listing" etc.
    This so called "identifier  listing"(Hitlist = D_HITLIST) but it  is very "static" and not dynamic. But even if you enhance the set up a little bit (which can be done using some programming without modification etc.) the restriction is that in the hitlist etc. only one ! identifier will be shown.
    But you could program an output variant to do the job.  Using that output variant you could display any identifer which is maintained on the level of a specification. Out put variants are the "standard user exit type" used very often in EH&S to display something (e.g. data maintained on specifciation level) on the screen there no output variant is provided by SAP.
    IN higher releases (starting from I believe SAP 2004) there is a new output variant (I believe called SUB_DATA) which can be used as a starting point to create your customer specific variant.
    The normal DG SAP data model is like this:
    per LS_UN_SUB only one UN Number is maintained. Using EH&S you can later find any real substance which have a "link" to this LS_UN_SUB (there is a standard query available in EH&S to do this research).
    May be this helps too.
    With best regards
    C.B.

  • Some questions about the integration between BIEE and EBS

    Hi, dear,
    I'm a new bie of BIEE. In these days, have a look about BIEE architecture and the BIEE components. In the next project, there are some work about BIEE development based on EBS application. I have some questions about the integration :
    1) generally, is the BIEE database and application server decentralized with EBS database and application? Both BIEE 10g and 11g version can be integrated with EBS R12?
    2) In BIEE administrator tool, the first step is to create physical tables. if the source appliation is EBS, is it still needed to create the physical tables?
    3) if the physical tables creation is needed, how to complete the data transfer from the EBS source tables to BIEE physical tables? which ETL tool is prefer for most developers? warehouse builder or Oracle Data Integration?
    4) During data transfer phase, if there are many many large volume data needs to transfer, how to keep the completeness? for example, it needs to transfer 1 million rows from source database to BIEE physical tables, when 50%is completed, the users try to open the BIEE report, can they see the new 50% data on the reports? is there some transaction control in ETL phase?
    could anyone give some guide for me? I'm very appreciated if you can also give any other information.
    Thanks in advance.

    1) generally, is the BIEE database and application server decentralized with EBS database and application? Both BIEE 10g and 11g version can be integrated with EBS R12?You, shud consider OBI Application here which uses OBIEE as a reporting tool with different pre-built modules. Both 10g & 11g comes with different versions of BI apps which supports sources like Siebel CRM, EBS, Peoplesoft, JD Edwards etc..
    2) In BIEE administrator tool, the first step is to create physical tables. if the source appliation is EBS, is it still needed to create the physical tables?Its independent of any soure. This is OBIEE modeling to create RPD with all the layers. If you build it from scratch then you will require to create all the layers else if BI Apps is used then you will get pre-built RPD along with other pre-built components.
    3) if the physical tables creation is needed, how to complete the data transfer from the EBS source tables to BIEE physical tables? which ETL tool is prefer for most developers? warehouse builder or Oracle Data Integration?BI apps comes with pre-built ETL mapping to use with the tools majorly with Informatica. Only BI Apps 7.9.5.2 comes with ODI but oracle has plans to have only ODI for any further releases.
    4) During data transfer phase, if there are many many large volume data needs to transfer, how to keep the completeness? for example, it needs to transfer 1 million rows from source database to BIEE physical tables, when 50%is completed, the users try to open the BIEE report, can they see the new 50% data on the reports? is there some transaction control in ETL phase?User will still see old data because its good to turn on Cache and purge it after every load.

    and many more docs on google
    Hope this helps
