Storage in iPad 2 not updated when deleting videos

I have deleted 8GB of iTunes purchased videos from my iPad 2 however this does not appear to free up any space - usage > storage still shows only 1.3GB of free space whilst when I try to download a new video I receive a message that I do not have enough free space. The videos I deleted no longer appear in the videos section of my iPad. I do not currently have access to a computer to sync. Any ideas? Thanks

How much space is your Other using? You may be able to reduce.
How Do I Get Rid Of The “Other” Data Stored On My iPad Or iPhone?
http://tinyurl.com/85w6xwn
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, 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.

External Class files not updating when "Delete ASO Files" executed

I've got an external .as file in the same folder as my flash file. In the process of writing the code, whenever I make a change and then test the movie, the flash movie is obviously still looking at the OLD information. I tried using the "Delete ASO Files" on the menu, to no avail.
I can' find these ASO files anywhere on my computer. ARE they hidden?
Aha! I tried something else. I quit flash,restarted and ran the same script with no changes. It returned the data correctly, but then gave me this unpleasant message:
256 levels of recursion were exceeded in one action list.
This is probably an infinite loop.
Further execution of actions has been disabled in this movie.
There are no loops of any kind in the code, which is below. Thanks in advance for your assistance.
//This is the Person.as file:
class Person {
public var HomName:String = "unknown";
public var HomEmail:String = "unknown";
public var HomPhone:String = "unknown";
public var HomSaveFreq:Number = 0;
public var HomSavePeriod:String = "unknown";
//constructor//
function Person(sn:String, se:String, sp:String, ss:Number, ssp:String) {
HomName = sn;
HomEmail = se;
HomPhone = sp;
HomSaveFreq = ss;
HomSavePeriod = ssp;
//functions for getting and setting all properties
function get myName():String {
return HomName;
function get myEmail():String {
return myEmail;
function get myPhone():String {
return myPhone;
function get myHomSaveFreq():Number {
return myHomSaveFreq;
function get myPeriod():String {
return myPeriod;
function set myName(sn:String):Void {
HomName = sn;
function set myEmail(sn:String):Void {
HomEmail = sn;
function set myPhone(sn:String):Void {
HomPhone = sn;
function set myHomSaveFreq(sn:Number):Void {
HomSaveFreq = sn;
function set myPeriod(sn:String):Void {
HomSavePeriod = sn;
//this is the flash movie code
var Client:Person = new Person("Terry,[email protected],323-232-3232,6,day");
trace(Client.myName);
trace(Client.myEmail);
trace(Client.myPhone);
trace(Client.myHomSaveFreq);
trace(Client.myPeriod);
stop();

I don't have an anonymous ftp site, but its so simple, lets keep it simple.
1. Create a new Flash file, AS 2.0 and paste this snippet in frame 1 script panel
var Client:Person = new Person("Terry,[email protected],323-232-3232,6,day");
trace(Client.myName);
trace(Client.myEmail);
trace(Client.myPhone);
trace(Client.myHomSaveFreq);
trace(Client.myPeriod);
stop();
2. make a text file and put the following code in it, and name the file Person.as
class Person {
public var HomName:String = "unknown";
public var HomEmail:String = "unknown";
public var HomPhone:String = "unknown";
public var HomSaveFreq:Number = 0;
public var HomSavePeriod:String = "unknown";
//constructor//
function Person(sn:String, se:String, sp:String, ss:Number, ssp:String) {
HomName = sn;
HomEmail = se;
HomPhone = sp;
HomSaveFreq = ss;
HomSavePeriod = ssp;
//functions for getting and setting all properties
function get myName():String {
return HomName;
function get myEmail():String {
return myEmail;
function get myPhone():String {
return myPhone;
function get myHomSaveFreq():Number {
return myHomSaveFreq;
function get myPeriod():String {
return myPeriod;
function set myName(sn:String):Void {
HomName = sn;
function set myEmail(sn:String):Void {
HomEmail = sn;
function set myPhone(sn:String):Void {
HomPhone = sn;
function set myHomSaveFreq(sn:Number):Void {
HomSaveFreq = sn;
function set myPeriod(sn:String):Void {
HomSavePeriod = sn;

I have a macbook, an ipad, and an iphone with the Mail app on all three synced through icloud, but when I read and delete emails on my phone, the inbox on my ipad is not update, so I have to go through and mark as read or delete messages again. How can I sync my iphone and ipad? (it seems like each is synced only to my laptop, so don't synchronize until I go home and use my laptop.

POP: yahoo, aol, comcast/time warnder/road runner
Imap: google, hotmail, and more including icloud.
If you want to use multiple devices - move to imap, I would even say "exchange", but Google does not support free exchange anymore, since January of that year. So Ironically Icloud or Hotmail would be my choices right now.
To find out more about what happens to you, search on Google "difference between pop and imap"

Mail on my Mac computer does not update when I update my mail on my iPhone and iPad. Can anyone help me with this? Is there a setting that I need to check?

All that you had to do was to sign into the old account in order to update those apps. What I mean is that you just needed to sign into that account in the store settings like I described and that should have worked. You didnt need to enter the credit card information again - you justed needed to use the old ID and password.
Anyway, I think the good news is that if everything else is OK with the new account, just download iBooks with the new ID - it's a free app so its not like you have to pay for it again. I'm not sure what the other App is that you are talking about - but if it is the Apple Store App - that is free as well.
Try this anyway, when you try to update iBooks, just use the old password if the old ID still pops up.
Did you try signing into the store settings with your new ID and see what happens with the updates then?

My mail program does not update when I delete emails in my other email programs (i.e. it still shows messages in my mail inbox when I've deleted them). I think this started with Maverick? Any solutions?

Sounds like yours could be an iPad 1.
If so... iOS 5.1.1 is as far as it goes.

My iPad will not update 2 of apps

My iPad will not update 2 of my apps. It shows the bar on them saying they need to load so I click on them and it says this app can not be uploaded at this time. I'm not sure what the problem is. I have tried to upload them on different types of internet and it will update all my other apps except those two.

Have you tried updating them one at a time? If that doesn't work, then update them in iTunes on the computer you sync with, delete the apps from your device, and then sync the updated ones to it via iTunes.
Cheers,
GB

My iPad will not update. It has said "waiting" for days

My iPad will not update. each time it says "waiting" and is installing or updating for days

Are you trying to update the iOS or install app updates?
Have you tried turning the iPad Off and then back On?
If there are multiple apps trying to download at once, only one can download at a time and the rest say "Waiting" until it is then their turn. Try this. Double tap the icon of the Waiting app, and it should resume the download.
If that doesn't work:
• Log out of your iTunes store account. Go to Settings > Store > Sign Out Then press the Home button.
• Then press and hold the Home and Sleep buttons simultaneously and don't release them when it brings up the Turn Off screen; keep holding them until the Apple logo appears.
• After restart, the Waiting should be gone.

My iPad will not update apps. I did try all previous suggestions.

My iPad will not update apps. I did try all the suggestions. When I click on the rapidly growing number of updates, the screen stays blank. Nothing is being downloaded. I have worn out the re-boot function.

This is a problem that many users are experiencing now. Apple is working on a fix.
According to Fly150 in another discussion, this will work.
If you want to update the Apps while waiting for Apple to fix Updates:
1. Go to App Store
2. Select Purchased
3. Select All
4. Scroll down to find the Apps showing update
5. Select update on the Apps
This should update the Apps and get rid of the update count in App Store. Apple needs to fix this, because you cant fix it. It is a workaround only.
you can update your apps in iTunes on your computer and sync the, to the iPad as well.

Why my ipad can not update the ios7.1.1

why my ipad can not update the ios 7.1.1

Hello there, crivera350.
The following Knowledge Base article offers up some great steps for if you are unable to update your iOS device:
If you can't update or restore your iOS device
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1808
Recovery mode erases your device and restores it, which should resolve the issue. If you previously synced with iTunes or iCloud, you may be able to restore from your backup after recovery.
Turn off your device. If you can't turn it off, press and hold the Sleep/Wake and Home buttons at the same time and wait a few seconds for it to turn off.
Plug the device's USB cable into your computer only.
Hold down the device's Home button as you connect the USB cable to it.
When you see the Connect to iTunes screen, release the Home button. If you don't see this screen, try steps 1 through 3 one more time.
iTunes should open and display a message such as: "iTunes has detected an iPhone in recovery mode. You must restore this iPhone before it can be used with iTunes."
Use iTunes to restore your device.
If you don't see your device in iTunes, follow these steps for Mac or these for Windows.
Thanks for reaching out to Apple Support Communities.
Cheers,
Pedro.

You have to do better than that if you want help. Describe what happens when you try to update apps.

My iPad will not update to 5 at all. I don't even have the option of software update in settings. I've tried to update over iTunes and it doest work there either.

If you have an iPad 1, the max iOS is 5.1.1. For newer iPads, the current iOS is 6.1. The Settings>General>Software Update only appears if you have iOS 5.0 or higher currently installed.

http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4623
If you are currently running an iOS lower than 5.0, connect the iPad to the computer, open iTunes. Then select the iPad under the Devices heading on the left, click on the Summary tab and then click on Check for Update.
Tip - If connected to your computer, you may need to disable your firewall and anitvirus software temporarily. Then download and install the iOS update. Be sure and backup your iPad before the iOS update. After you update an iPad (except iPad 1) to iOS 6.x, the next update can be installed via wifi (i.e., not connected to your computer).

It might be a good idea to reset network settings & reboot your modem:
Open Settings->General->Reset->Reset Network settings. You will have to enter your wifi passwords again.
Also go to Settings->Safari->Clear History & a Website data.
