What is all this "Other" stuuf and how do I get rid of it? PLease help!!!

I had to restore my iTouch and it;s working fine now but my computer shows that it has like seven gigs of "other" content that dos not show up on my iTouch. This much space being taken up is preventing me from actually putting my music on my iTouch. Can anybody help me out?

Do you have any apps such as Air Video, VLC or ZumoCast that allow you to convert or sync media for use offline? Or any PDF readers that may have large PDF files associated? Any RSS readers or other aggregators that could have large caches of internet material?
In my experience these are the sorts of apps that generate a lot of 'other' content. Sometimes it's easy to forget what files you have associated with these apps.

I have a Ipod nano with only 128 songs (6mb) with no videos or anything but 128 songs..the ipod summary says i have 3.02GB of "other"...what is this "other" stuff and how can i get rid of it so i can have more songs on my ipod?!

..

The Other section on your iPod consists of a number of different things, including album artwork, your iPod's software, files you may be storing externally on it, games, and a few other things. However, it can usually include corrupt files from failed sync operations with iTunes. Usually the Other section should only be a small fraction of what's stored on your iPod, usually less than 1 GB.
So it sounds like your iPod may be corrupt, in which case you'll need to connect it to iTunes and restore it to factory settings.

I cannot update my software because I have too much 'other' GB space. Does anyone know what the 'other' is and how do I get rid of it?

Please proceed as follows. 
#Click the small down arrow in the Search Bar (''that's the small one to the right of the location bar where normally type in web address'') to get the list of search engines and then click "'''Manage Search Engines'''" at the bottom. 
#Find '''Questscan '''in the list, click it to highlight it and then click the '''Remove '''button. 
#Close Firefox and then restart it again. 
#Go to Facebook, or somewhere else where the problem usually occurs and see if it still happens. If it does, proceed with step 5. 
#In the location bar where you normally type in a web address, type '''about:config''' and hit Enter. 
#If you see a window which says "This might void your warranty!", click the button which says "I'll be careful, I promise" so you can continue with the next step. 
#In the filter at the top, type: '''keyword.URL''' 
#Double click it and remove whatever's in there and replace it with http://www.google.com/search?q= and then click OK. 
#Close the tab
The URL to add in "keyword.URL" becomes a link in this post, so right click it and choose "Copy Link Location" to copy it to the Windows clipboard. Then hit CTRL+V to paste it. Saves you having to type the whole thing.
'''To reset your home page, do the following'''. 
* Go to the site you want to set as your homepage. 
* Click the Firefox button, go to '''Options '''| '''Options '''| '''General'''. 
* Make sure it says "''Show My Homepage''" in the first dropdown menu. 
* Click the button called "'''Use Current Pages'''" to set the homepage to the one you have on the screen. 
After you complete the above steps, download the free version of Malwarebytes from http://www.malwarebytes.org/products/malwarebytes_free and run a full system scan as precaution.

TS3899 I was deleting my emails when all of a sudden it started loading emails that had been put in trash and then deleted. I'm up to 1364. How do I get this to stop and how do I get rid of all these emails?

I was deleting emails on my iPad to trash , when 1364 past emails which had been sent to trash and was deleted was back in my inbox. I can't get this to stop. When I try to delete some emails it just adds more. Could someone tell me what has happened and how do I fix this problem?

"Other" represents data that iTunes can't recognize. A few hundred mb of other is normal. The 6.9 gb you have represents corrupted data (maybe from an interrupted sync or some other glitch).
Sometimes, syncing one more song can clear up the extra other. If not, you'll need to restore your iPod. Here are the instructions: Restore: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1414
You can restore from your iPod backup when asked.

HI there
Thank you for trying to help me. You're going to think I'm really thick, but I can't seem to do a screen shot.
I pressed the command and the 3 button, plus what I believe is the shift key, Hat is the one on the left hand side, with an arrow on it, which you use for a capital letter yeah?
But nothing happens.
Also I can't see what you are reffering to when you say click onto the camera icon? I can't see any such icon.
Sorry to be so useless.
I have just noticed that it is obviously connected with the sound. It has a row of boxes undeneath the logo, and as you increase the volume, the boxes fill up from left to right, and the logo flutters at the same time.
have alogitec amplifier and speaker system connected to it, and have just noticed that the sun logo looks very similar to the Logitec symble/Logo.
Is that of any help please?

What causes signal processing error 20352 and how can I get rid of it?

I'm using a lowpass filter express vi with a dynamic data input and have been getting a warning number 20352 from the error output node. The documentation states the following about this warning number: Current and previous waveforms are not contiguous. Can someone tell me what this means, if it is significant and how I can eliminate the warning?

Are you trying to filter just one waveform or are you combining multiple waveforms together before passing it through the filter? A discontinuous waveform would be one with missing time information...like a skip in the data that could result from adding two together. OR...Possibly it is two waveforms with different delta T's that have been added together and "coerced".
