Trying to get head around this 'other' when syncing iPhone4S

I am still trying to reduce my other which takes up alot of space on iphone and when i sync seems to be huge.

If "other" is much larger than around 1GB or so, this indicates corrupt data. To fix, you can first try restoring from backup, followed by syncing your content back to the phone. If no change after restoring from backup, that means the corrupt data is included in your iPhone backup, & you will have to restore as a new device to get rid of it.
You do not necessarily have to restore as new first, as suggested in the post above, to fix.

When trying to set up automatic syncing , on my iPod Nano, I get a notice that I am synced to another unknown computer. How do I get unsynced from this other computer ? Have I been hacked ?

When trying to set up automatic syncing , on my iPod Nano, I get a notice that I am synced to another unknown computer. How do I get unsynced from this other computer ? Have I been hacked ?

Well, most of what we can tell you is already stated in the message you are getting. A phone can only sync with one library at a time. You have apparently synced your phone with a different iTunes library in the past, or changes have been made to this library so the phone no longer recognizes it as the library with which it was synced. To know which you will have to provide the information.
If you bought them using the AppleID you use with this phone it may simply be easier to re-download them directly to the phone rather than sync them, though you will want to resolve that issue at some point.

When i am Publishing my muse file to Business Catalyst, all my images get swapped around from other pages, both in slideshows and placed images, how do i get it to stop doing this! In preview mode the images are where i want them!
This is one of my pages with the slide show with the correct image

HT1386 i updated itunes 11.1 yesterday and now im trying to get my music on itunes to sync onto my iphone 4s but when i connect it through usb...Itunes is saying " waiting for changes to be applied"?

i updated itunes 11.1 yesterday and now im trying to get my music on itunes to sync onto my iphone 4s but when i connect it through usb...Itunes is saying " waiting for changes to be applied"? so i dont know what to do cause i just want to sync my music from itunes to my iphone 4s

I had the same problem and the fix was so easy that I felt a little silly after spending 2 hours with an Apple Technician. At the end of it all, what I had to do was make sure ALL music was deleted from my iPhone 5 by going into usage and clearing out the music folder. All I had to do then was turn my phone off and turn it back on again. I had not done this after my phone upgraded to the new 7.0 IOS. What's the first thing you do when experiencing computer problems? Reboot! It fixed my problem and now my iPhone 5 synchs perfectly when I had it connected to my computer. I am also on iTunes version 11.1.

Try:
- iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
- Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
- If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
- Try on another computer
- If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

I have a huge amount of my memory used by 'other' than photos and music - to my knowledge, there is nothing there apart from a few songs and photos and 5 podcasts. What could it be? How could I get rid of this 'other' stuff and get the memory back?

If your Mac meets these requirements:

then you can order a Snow Leopard disk and install it.

TS3833 I am receiving this error when syncing my ipod: iTunes could not copy "song name" to the iPod "name" because an unknown error occurred (-50). I am using iTunes version 10.6.3.25. Why?

I am receiving this error when syncing my ipod: iTunes could not copy "song name" to the iPod "name" because an unknown error occurred (-50). I am using iTunes version 10.6.3.25. Why?

Right click the filename that won't download and selsct 'Get Info'. Look at the file path, does it have a //?// in it? That is a problem with Amazon downloads that prevent iTunes from finding the file. Use 'Add Folder' to add the album to your library and try syncing it again

What is other when syncing ipad?

what is "other" when syncing? why does it take up so much space?

Other is usually around 1 GB...
A ' Large Other ' usually indicates Corrupt Data...
First Try a Restore from Backup...
But... if the Large Other Persists, that is an Indicator of Corrupt Data in the Backup...
Then a Restore as New is the way to go...

When syncing iphone4 6.1.3 to itunes, syncing will not stop

When syncing iphone4 6.1.3 to itunes, syncing will not stop. Message in itunes states Syncing Geniurs Data to Tracys iPhone. Waiting for items to copy. This will continue until I force a shut down.

How do I get rid of this "other" category on my 32 gb iPod touch 5g?

I got this 32gb iPod Touch 5g last week. I realized that when I openned it, it had like 10 mb used from the other section on itunes.
Through the days, it's been getting bigger and bigger. I had like 1.1gb on this "other" section on itunes so I searched about it.
I tried unchecking and checking the open itunes when this ipod is conencted,worked the first time but in the next sync, it went up again.
Then I restored ipod from backup but didnt work.
Then I restored ipod to factory settings, without a backup, and it had like 500mb used on the "other" section
After that, I synced my ipod without putting anything on it, it increased 100mb more on this section.
I don't know what else to do. I downloaded iExplore as I've read that it helped people to get rid of that BUT I don't even know how to use it.
I'm not using the iCloud.
The only thing that I think messed it up was that I downlaoded a magazine on the newstand store, inside this app I got a free issue of a magazine, it was about 500mb but after a while I deleted the app with the magazine issue but I think it never went away from my iPod
I restored ipod to factory settings so is there a way that app is still stuck on it?
I tried to look it up on iExplroe but didn't find anything.
I also dont have ny email account on the ipod
Can you all please help me? and if iExplore will help, what do I have to do? I will really appreciate

Yesterday I was making all my music to 256 kbps and i was syncing all my music to my ipod and all of the sudden it changed to 250mb but then when it was done syncing it went to 750mb (which is what I got after restoring and all that).
Is this normal? Even if I remove my music, that "other" doesn't reduce at all.
