What EXACTLY uses the data?

I have an Iphone 4S with 16gb, hubs has Iphone 4 with 8. I need to help him manage his data better cause he is almost to the 2gb limit. This resets every month right? and are the games he is playing using up his data or is it pictures and text? I have not found an answer and have searched this sight until I am dizzy.
I know that when I plug into the ITunes store online it will show what is using memory on the phone (his 8GB) but...I do not know how to decipher the usage analysis given in the Verizon website.
Any help would be appreciated.
Lori

Without knowing what he has installed it's hard to say.
This that do use data and is known.
YouTube
iMessages
Mail, Contacts, and Notes if you have it to sync without iTunes(using iCloud services)
ANY app with advertisements, or apps with DRM checkers(DRM check uses a very small amount to actually count)
downloading apps not on wifi
Apps like Words with Friends, Scrabble with Friends, or any app that connects to the internet to play(even Multiplayer games unless it uses bluetooth to connect).
Maps(it caches a 5 mile radius, but if you go beyond that 5 miles it downloads the next 5 miles and deletes the old one IIRC)
There may be other stuff I don't remember off the top of my head.

  • How do I determine what is using the data on my iphone 5c?

    In looking at our bill we have one person that is using almost triple the amount of data that the other users are, and we need to figure out exactly what it is that is eating all of the data on his phone as he doesn't have any clue what it could be. Any help to determine what is using the data on an iphone 5c?

        emilyki, look no further. We can help you look into this data usage issue. First of all, we recommend that you disable data for a few applications on that iPhone 5C device to ensure that the applications are not depleting data from your allowance when not in use. You can do this by tapping Settings>Cellular>Scroll down to all the downloaded applications and disable data for applications.
    Additionally, you also have the option of disabling data in Settings>Cellular when you're not using data or connected to Wi-Fi.
    Lastly, you may view the data usage sessions for that line online at My Verizon to determine when data is used the most. http://bit.ly/xB4iTc Keep us posted.

  • How do i figure it out what app use the cellular data in standby mode?

    How do i figure it out what app use the cellular data in standby mode? I disabled the cellular data for 3 days, and my battery last longer. I don't use push notifications, neither location services. I'm not signed in in skype or any IM app.

    Do you use push email?  Do you have accounts that have synchronized calendars associated with them?  Those features will still use cellular data in the background as the receive mail and send or receive calendar updates.
    Some notifications, like push notifications from Facebook and other social networking sites may use cellular data in the background.  Basically, any automated data task like those may use cellular data when the phone is in standby (note that wifi would be used if available when the phone is active, but wifi turns off in standby and all data goes through the cellular data connection).

  • What exactly does the M7 coprocessor do in the iPad air, and what apps can use it?

    I've been trying a few 3rd party apps which use the m7 in the iPhone 5s. None of them work. Also there seem to be no apps both built in motion activity under the privacy menu in settings.

  • What exactly is the diff between main window and variable window

    what exactly is the diff between main window and variable window in SAP script?

    hi,
    MAIN WINDOW :- In a main window you display text and data, which can cover several pages (flow text). As soon as a main window is completely filled with text and data, the system continues displaying the text in the main window of the next page. It automatically triggers the page break.
    You can define only have one window in a form as main window.
    The main window must have the same width on each page, but can differ in height.
    A page without main window must not call itself as next page, since this would trigger an endless loop. In such a case, the system automatically terminates after three pages.
    VARIABLE WINDOW :- The contents of variable windows is processed again for each page, on which the window appears. The system outputs only as much text as fits into the window. Text exceeding the window size is truncated; the system does not trigger a page break. Unlike constant windows, the page windows declared as variable windows may have different sizes on different form pages.
    As far as the processing of the window contents is concerned, the system currently treats constant and variable windows alike. The only difference is that constant windows have the same size throughout the form.
    hope this will be useful.
    If useful then reward points.
    with regards,
    Syed

  • What exactly is the advantage of VPN?

    I work in an architectural office of about 15 people. We've always had access to our wiki, files and calendars when out of the office.
    Currently we have a Standard setup of Leopard Server with the following services: iChat (using just a private local domain), iCal (with all calendars delegated to one another), AFP file server (3 different groups) and Wiki Server.
    What exactly would the advantage be to us of VPN, over simply connecting to a file server via "Connect to Server...", accessing our Wiki via the office IP address, and subscribing directly to our calendars from home?

    VPN: Virtual Private Network.
    Virtual: implemented without needing specific hardware; uses existing networking hardware and connections. Non-virtual ("real" or "physical") private networks typically involve dragging network wires around or broadcasting signals of your own, or leasing T1 or SONET lines and other such gear from a communications vendor.
    Private: A private network is (preferably) difficult to eavesdrop from the open WiFi at the coffee shop, easier to control access. Non-private networks are also known as open networks, and that ftp or telnet or imap/pop password you just entered can be read by others on the same network. That, and the entire contents of the mail messages you have sent and received over the open network are also accessible.
    Some private networks are less secure than others. The WEP-based security provided by some WiFi networks is now usually considered to be analogous to a wide-open WiFi; WEP is quite weak, and tools to break it are widely available. WPA is rather better here, and anyone using WEP should move to WPA, or better. (qv: the TJX credit card data exposure was reportedly due to the use of WEP.)
    Most VPNs also have some form of authentication; a certificate, smartcard or token card, or other such challenge. Passwords are one of the weakest mechanisms here, but there are VPNs that use just passwords.
    +I guess too, there is some additional functionality added. For instance if you're logged into the VPN with a work laptop, presumably if you update your server-based calendar it will update the server as well.+
    No. A VPN is and should be assumed nothing more than a network connection. The difference is in the degree of privacy provided. Beyond the encryption and authentication typically inherent, VPNs do not add application-level features over what an open network connection might provide.
    An ssh tunnel is a specific form of VPN, and does reasonably well at providing security and at avoiding exposing your password and your data.
    Network: as with open networks, VPNs can be used to allow client systems to access a network, or to bridge two or more networks together. VPNs can also provide a reasonable way to manage the connections between these networks, or a client connecting into a network. For the purposes of discussing connectivity, a VPN is another form of a network connection.

  • What exactly is the difference between enqueue,latch & lock

    Can someone explain in simple words (with example if possible) what exactly is the difference between enqueue,latch & lock?
    I have gone through documentation & other links,but just not able to figure out the exact & clear difference between these three..
    Cheers,
    Kunwar

    In addition to links provided by Sb and nice explanations by Aman, i would like to add below :
    1.Latches and enqueues are lightweight serialization devices used to coordinate multi-user access to
    shared data structures, objects and files.
    Latches are locks that are held for extremely short periods of time, for example the time it takes to modify
    an in-memory data structure. They are used to protect certain memory structures, such as the database
    block buffer cache or the library cache in the shared pool (as described in Chapter 2, Architecture). Latches
    are typically requested internally in a ‘willing to wait’ mode. This means that if the latch is not available,
    the requesting session will sleep for a short period of time and retry the operation later. Other latches may
    be requested in an ‘immediate’ mode, meaning that the process will go do something else rather than sit
    and wait for the latch to become available. Since many requestors may be waiting for a latch at the same
    time, you may see some processes waiting longer than others. Latches are assigned rather randomly, based
    on the ‘luck of the draw’, if you will. Whichever session asks for a latch right after it was released will get it.
    There is no line of latch waiters, just a ‘mob’ of waiters constantly retrying.
    Oracle uses atomic instructions like ‘test and set’ for operating on latches. Since the instructions to set
    and free latches are atomic, the operating system itself guarantees that only one process gets it. Since it
    is only one instruction, it can be quite fast. Latches are held for short periods of time and provide a
    mechanism for clean-up in case a latch holder ‘dies’ abnormally while holding it. This cleaning up
    process would be performed by PMON.
    Enqueues are another, more sophisticated, serialization device, used when updating rows in a database
    table, fro example. They differ from latches in that they allow the requestor to ‘queue up’ and wait for
    the resource. With a latch request, the requestor is told right away whether they got the latch or not.
    With an enqueue, the requestor will be blocked until they actually attain it. As such, they are not as fast
    as a latch can be, but they do provided functionality over and above that which a latch can offer.
    Enqueues may be obtained at various levels, so you can have many ‘share’ locks and locks with various
    degrees of ‘shareability’.

  • Error importing Incoming Payments using the Data Transfer Workbench

    Every time I try to import Incoming Payments using the Data Transfer Workbench I get an error that the Update Failed - Can not find this object in B1Application-defined or object-defined error65171. I'm using the 3 templates for Payments, Payments_Checks and Payments_Invoices. I've filled them out as I've seen in other postings in this forum. Based on the error message, I really can't tell what I'm doing wrong. Could someone please take a look at my files and let me know what might be causing the error?

    Hi Suda,
    As far as I can tell from the threads you forwarded (and other searches I've done on here), my files are correct. I tried filling out the templates exactly as explained in the first link (see my data below) but it still isn't working. It just gives me the same generic error.

    Payments_Invoices
    RecordKey....DocEntry.....SumApplied
    1..................31791..........78.7
    Is it correct that the Payments file should not contain anything in the DocEntry column? (I know that the DocEntry in my Invoices file is the DocEntry of the Invoice). I have a feeling that I'm making a stupid mistake somewhere but I just can't figure it out. Any ideas?
    I really appreciate your help with this.

    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.

  • My old computer (a Sony) with my iTunes crashed. I have a new MAC and want to make sure I can keep all of my music (mostly from old CD's that have been lost). I bought iTunes match hoping that would work but it isn't using the data on my phone. HELP!

    My old computer (a Sony) with my iTunes crashed. I have a new MAC and want to make sure I can keep all of my music (mostly from old CD's that have been lost). I bought iTunes match hoping that would work but it isn't using the data on my phone. HELP!

    Since you have purchased a new Mac (which, BTW, is not typed in all capitals) why not buy a Time Capsule <http://www.apple.com/airport-time-capsule/> which is designed specifically to work with OS X and Time Machine?
    You don't say what part of your Sony "crashed." If it was not the HDD it is possible to take the computer apart, put the HDD in an external case, then recover the data off of it (including the music) simply drag-n-drop. If it was the HDD that "crashed" that makes it more difficult.
    If you are able to recover the music from the Sony you can then add it to the iTunes library on the Mac and iTunes Match will then scan, match and upload the tracks to be mirrored in the cloud.

  • Can I automate the creation of a cluster in LabView using the data structure created in an autogenerated .CSV, C header, or XML file?

    Can I automate the creation of a cluster in LabView using the data structure created in an auto generated .CSV, C header, or XML file?  I'm trying to take the data structure defined in one or more of those files listed and have LabView automatically create a cluster with identical structure and data types.  (Ideally, I would like to do this with a C header file only.)  Basically, I'm trying to avoid having to create the cluster by hand, as the number of cluster elements could be very large. I've looked into EasyXML and contacted the rep for the add-on.  Unfortunately, this capability has not been created yet.  Has anyone done something like this before? Thanks in advance for the help.

    Is this something you're trying to do at runtime? Clusters are fixed data structures so you can't change them programmatically. Or, are you just trying to create some typedef cluster controls so that you can use them for coding? What would your clusters basically look like? Perhaps another way of holding the information like an array of variants?
    You can try LabVIEW scripting, though be aware that this is not supported by NI. 
     Wow!  Thanks for the quick response!  We would use this cluster as a fixed data structure.  No need to change the structure during runtime.  The cluster would be a cluster of clusters with multiple levels.  There would be not pattern as to how deep these levels would go, or how many elements would be in each.   Here is the application.  I would like to be able to autocode a Simulink model file into a DLL.  The model DLL would accept a Simulink bus object of a certain data structure (bus of buses), pick out which elements of the bus is needed for the model calculation, and then pass the bus object.  I then will take the DLL file and use the DLL VI block to pass a cluster into the DLL block (with identical structure as the bus in Simulink).  To save time, I would like to auto generate the C header file using Simulink to define the bus structure and then have LabView read that header file and create the cluster automatically.   Right now I can do everything but the auto creation of the cluster.  I can manually build the cluster to match the Simulink model bus structure and it runs fine.  But this is only for an example model with a small structure.  Need to make the cluster creation automated so it can handle large structures with minimal brute force. Thanks!

  • What exactly does the global switch command line do ?

    Hello All
    Just foraging in the dark world of APP-V. I have a question which I cannot find answer for through google.
    There are powershell commands to publish an APP-V application globally. What exactly does the global switch do ?
    I understand it makes the application available to everyone on the machine for anyone who logs onto that machine.
    However in the absence of this global switch the application is still available to all users who logon to that particular machine. So what exactly is the reason for using the global switch ?
    Thanks

    Correct, the global switch makes the application accessable for all users logging on to that system.
    This feature is required for some packages, like Office. But it is ofter used for applications used by everyone, like Adobe Reader.
    However in the absence of this global switch the application is still available to all users who logon to that particular machine. So what exactly is the reason for using the global switch ?
    A package can be added to the system but until it is published a user cannot start it. They won't see any shortcuts in their startmenu/desktop/etc.
    So after you added the package to the system, it must be published to a user or globally (every user) to start it.

  • What "exactly" does the Brightness setting in Print do?

    What "exactly" does the Brightness setting in the Print module do?
    I know it's a controversial button, especially now that there are proofing options available. Also, since you're using it "blind" it's impossible to know how much or what it's really doing.
    Does anyone know if it's e.g.. the same as going to quick develop and going up on "exposure", or "brightness", or "shadows"... How exactly is it brightening the image, and is +100 a full stop or how is it calibrated?
    Thanks,
    Alan.

    Ooops,
    Obviously there is NO brightness control in LR...is the print adjustment similar to an exposure adjustment or more like moving the "shadows" and "whites" adjustments (which if I understand corrrectly, moves tones above or below mid tones, but not highlights or blacks)?

  • What exactly are the cron scripts doing?

    Hi,
    Hope the subject says it all: I have searched but not found a detailed explanation as what the cron scripts (daily, weekly, monthly) actually do, and if the utilities (Onyx, Cocktail, Xupport, etc) are doing exactly the same.
    Can someone point to a site or explain?
    TIA
    Dan

    Hi Dan,
    (in addition to Barry's reply)
    Yes,
    1) running the Daily, the Weekly and the Monthly tasks manually with an utility, or
    2) running them yourself with the
    sudo periodic daily
    sudo periodic weekly
    sudo periodic monthly
    Terminal commands
    (or this one: sudo periodic daily weekly monthly), or
    3) leaving your computer running 24/7/365 so that they run automatically,
    all three ways do exactly the same thing.
    --> To see what they do exactly, the best way is to open Console, and in the /var/log section, look for "daily.out", "weekly.out" and "monthly.out".
    What exactly are the "cron scripts" doing?
    (Periodic tasks)
    In Console, you'll find a lot of different files that grow with more and more information every minute, even every second for some of them.
    The three Periodic tasks regularly rearrange them and compresses them so that they don't take too much disk space.
    They also rebuild some system database so that the data never gets unusable by the system.
