What is in other that would take up 4 Gb?

I have less on my 3GS than before update and less free space now. I don't get it. Any ideas? Also other says 4 Gb and I turned off bookmarks so what else would be in other?

It means some of the data that was re-transferred to your iPhone has some corruption and not being read properly such as being video, apps, or music.
The only way to resolve this is by restoring the iPhone with iTunes.

    1) design for no wider than 600px (otherwise it may not fit in email clients).
    2) Slice up your newsletter design in segments for images and html areas with the slice tool.
    3) add the <a href="http://www.yourwebsite.com">my website</a> link in one of the html areas.
    4) export as generic html 4 code, and put the images in a separate folder.
    5) upload all the images to your website's server in a folder (you cannot embed images in an email newsletter - they must link to externally hosted images).
    6) change all the links in your html page to the ones that were loaded up on your server. For example, an image's source link would work out similar to this: <img src="http://www.yourwebsite.com/newsletter/image1.jpg" alt="alternate description of your image">
    7) open the newsletter with working external images in Chrome or Firefox. Select the entire page content (ctrl-a), and copy it (ctrl-c).
    8) create a new email in your mail client. Place the cursor in the body. Paste the newsletter (ctrl-v).
    9) send your newsletter to hundreds of recipients, and get blacklisted by several email servers. Receive warning messages from your own hosting provider not to spam other users' email accounts.
    10) realize this is too much of a hassle, and instead opt for a service such as MailChimp.
    (The result in (9) depends on whether you sent out your newletter only to acquaintances, or not. But even then you might be warned off.)
    Btw, many email clients turn off images in an email by default. You must provide the most important content as html, not as images.

  • What is the percentage that Apple takes for every app/song sold?

    What is the percentage that Apple takes for every app/song sold?
    For example, a song is selling for $0.99 ($1.00), does Apple take 50%, which is $0.50 or what?
    And how is the rest of the money distributed?
    Thank you in advance for any information!

    Music: For most major record artists Apple keeps 34¢ of a 99¢ song. The remainder is mostly kept by the record companies. The recording artist gets what little is left (about 10¢).
    Apps: Apple's commission is 30%.

  • Tomcat or others that would support "web hosting features"?

    Hello,
    I have been looking around for about a week now trying to find a product that would provide the following:
    A JSP engine like tomcat, however that would support multiple connections from multiple accounts for a web hosting business. Security is one of the most critical thing in this.
    I would appreciate if anybody would like to share this information, which product do web hosting companies normally use to provide JSP hosting?
    Thank you very much,

    Hi, Bob. Cobalt servers have a pretty bad reputation in the hosting industry (overpriced, underpowered). And it's worse if your host isn't answering your support questions...
    I'd say shop around. My company is a Java hosting specialist. We have our Java servers set up out of the box, and the company is run by Java developers.

  • What is the "other" that is suddenly taking up so much space on my hard drive?

    How do I find what is the "other" listed on my hard drive and clean it up?  Seems to be taking almost 80gb's of space now.  Also on my iPhone and iPad, although much less space is being taken.

    read "more like this".

  • My ipad is showing that my music is taking up 1.1 gig of my space.  I have no songs on the ipad and can find nothing that would take up this space.  How can I find out what is taking up this space so I can remove it?  Thank you

    I have reset the device and have opened the music icon and the only thing I can see are the songs I have bought and have on my iPod.

    Try:                                               
    - iOS: Not responding or does not turn on           
    - Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode

    - 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 another cable                     
    - 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.

    The missing apps could have been done by setting the Restrictions that can hid those apps. If the backup was made with those retrictions set the the Restrictions are also restored.
    Thus, if you get it to work restore to factory settings/new iPod, not from backup

  • After setting up an mp3 player using my itunes library, all my songs are now in the library twice, I dont know what to do, other than delete them one at a time, and what did I do that would of caused this to happen.

    I have an ipod with 1000 songs and I transfered them to a mp3 player, when checked my library for duplicates, all the songs appreared twice, now I am afraid to add more songs and sync my ipod.

    Manually sync.  This way, you will be making sure no duplicates will sync over to your iPod.

  • Why is my internal memory so full? How can I find out what is the "other" that is taking up so much space?

    I'm not very tech-savvy. My iPhone is backed up on my computer and all my photos are in my computer. I'm going to send it away to have the screen fixed and the people from AppleCare recommended to back it up just in case. So, I am going to backup my computer for the first time since I bought it in mid 2011. I go see how much space I need and I see that I only have 15 GB of memory space left and this huge space being used up by "Other". I don't know if its because I updated it to Mavericks. How can I see what that is? Also, I've never downloaded movies so I don't know why that is also there. Please help ASAP!
    I added a photo.

    "Other" is everything that isn't in one of the other categories. For instance, it includes all your user documents that are not movie, audio, or photo files.
    Regardless of that, you need to use an external drive at least large enough to backup your entire user folder (the one with a House icon). Better is to get one at least as large as your built-in drive & use something like Carbon Copy Cloner or SuperDuper! to clone the whole built-in drive to it.

  • Memory issues...what is the "Other" that is taking up so much space?

    I have a 4 Gig IPhone...and have 303mb of music, 1.3 gigs of video, 25.2 mb of photos, and then there is the 1.61 GB of "Other" ???...what is taking up all this space ? any idea...or anyone else notice that goin on with there Iphone ???...Large amounts of space being taken up by "Other" ???
    IMac G5, 17 Inch, rev B & MacBook 2GHz, 2 gb, white, Iphone 4GB   Mac OS X (10.4.1)  

    I had the exact same issue. I scoured the forums and the manuals. I had 404 meg of other. After i removed all my mp3's it went to 420. Wierd
    So i did a restore. Then I had 14.4.
    I opened Google maps and it went to 15.5.
    Yesterday I did some mapping with google as well. again the size went up.
    My theory is that Google maps caches the maps you use.
    However there is no way to clear the google cache.
    I also cleared safari cache and that had no affect.
    Since then I have been monitoring the other usage. It is still on a steady upward pace. I hope I dont have to reload to reclaim space again.
    Maybe this is something they will fix.

  • What is the "other" that's taking up space and how to compress it...

    It seems that since uploading to itunes 8.0, i've noticed that i have 13.60 GB of "other" showing up on my iPod--not giving me much free space.
    I recently used my iPod to transfer my library--is this the issue? How do free up that space--on my iPod?
    Thanks!

    *i've noticed that i have 13.60 GB of "other" showing up on my iPod-*
    Other can be Album Artwork, Notes, Contacts, Firmware etc. or (and this doesn't apply to the iPod Touch or iPhone which don't have the option to enabled for disk use), files that are on there if you are using the iPod as a removable storage device. If you feel that Other is being incorrectly reported then try restoring your iPod. Restoring will erase the iPod's hard drive, reload the software and put it back to default settings. Once the restore is complete follow the on screen instructions to name the iPod and automatically sync your songs and videos onto the fresh installation. Press Done and the iPod will appear in iTunes and start to sync. If you want to update manually or using selected playlists uncheck the box beside the sync automatically instruction and press Done, it will default to manual mode and you can choose whatever setting you like: Restoring iPod to factory settings with iTunes
    *I recently used my iPod to transfer my library--is this the issue? How do free up that space--on my iPod?*
    Open your iPod in Windows Explorer and make sure you deleted all of the files you were transferring.

  • So I lost my Motorola Droid Razr Maxx HD and had to get it replaced with an LG Lucid 2. I was wondering when I could possibly upgrade to a newer Motorola and if so, how long that would take.

    This is a question concerning eligibility for upgrades with replacement phones for a lost phone.

        Hi nchiajoe
    I would be happy to help! Was there any issues with your LG? You can see your upgrade date by dialing #UPG to check. To get a new device sooner check this link: http://vz.to/ZILXBT

  • What steps do I need to take before UPGRADING from v29 back to v28, so that everything be back where I WANTED IT b4 ur #$%@ Molly Maids disguised...

    ... as programmers decided to WASTE MY WHOLE GD DAY trying to find, fix, move things back into the place THAT I WANT THEM TO BE?
    I've already downloaded v28 but haven't installed it yet because I would like to know what will happen when I do? i.e. will all my bookmarks, tabs, addon's be automatically back in the place I originally had them??
    OMG I'm so pissed off right now, I already sent in my feedback and I don't do this often, but wtf?! seriously! Whoever came up with this gd idea... oh wait, it's not even an idea because that would take some gd creativity, it's copying what that other shitty browser has. Need I even state the fact that if I wanted the NON-EFFIN-FUNCTIONALITY of that other browser, I wouldn't be using Firefox in the FIRST PLACE??? oops tangent... that person and the person that signed off on this POS should be fired!
    Jeesus! I think a company should recognize who their customer is and I would hazard a guess and say that the Firefox user's aren't your typical, ladeedaaaaa, oh my goodness, there are too many options and buttons, they confuse me... can you just hide them all for me so it looks pretty....
    Seriously, you didn't make FF better, this is akin to me walking into your house emptying all your drawers, cabinets and closets and moving them to where the 92 yr old woman around the block said would be better. Then laughing at silly you because you still think the way you had things actually worked for you. Please stop with the lame excuses, and how you know better, and the dreaded security risks lol as if there is any such thing as security anymore, and while I'm at it... all these company's stressing the fact that they're non-profit, doesn't mean they don't get paid, and quite well in most cases.
    So when I install v28 will EVERYTHING be back to the way it was before? I've already backed up my profile from this crap version. If installing 28 again means I'm going to have to re-download all my addon's and bookmarks, etc...
    Then it's been nice knowing you and I'll probably cry for months over this break up, unlike my recent breakup with google which was suprisingly much more of a relief after it was over. Oh and one more thing. For the moderators and for Mozilla....
    Be thankful people are complaining, it means we still care about you. So please stop crying about the 'abuse' you take, try wasting a whole gd day looking for the silverware that used to be in the silverware drawer but is now buried underneath the 14th floor tile east of the front door because the old lady around the block said it would be %$^# safer there ARGHHHHHHH

    I don't understand why they feel the need to adhere to the styles and functions of other browsers, there is a reason why the vast majority does not use safari/opera/chrome/ie, simply because we linked having everything set OUR WAY.
    We want customization, without the hassle of having to FIX everything on update breaks.

  • TS3992 What happens if I press "Cancel Backup" on my iphone 5 in the middle of an initial backup as I didnt realise that a first time backup would take so long, according to my phone about 30 hours ?

    Hi need help! Purchased iphone5 and I have recieved a message saying that I have to back-up the phone as it has "never been" backed up. I proceeded to "back up now" to icloud and the phone went into back-up mode as it should via my wi-fi connection. However I am now recieving a message saying that the back-up has "about 32 hours remaining" and as I didn't realise that a back-up would take this long I was wondering what will now happen if I press the "Cancel Backup" button? Will I lose any information from my phone i.e. contacts, calendars etc all the important stuff ? Or will the back-up just cancel without actually backing up any info at all and that I will then have to try again at a later date or back-up through itunes? Heeeeeelp please !!!!

    Anything* >.<

  • HT1766 I have been trying to back up my iphone it says I have 3.5 GB to 5 GB but I thought my phone had 8 GB. I got a message that it would take 8 hours and then I got a message it couldn't back up. Any one have an idea of what the problem could be?

    I have been trying to back up my phone and got a message that it would take 8 hours. I let it go over night and when I looked at it in the morning I got a message my data couldn't be backed up. I though my phone had 8 GB. If I have too much data what items should I delete in order to have my data backed up? I have deleted most of my pictures so I didn't think I had that much data to back up. If any one has experienced this please advise. I think my battery is about to die and I want my data back up ASAP.

    What computer do you have?
    What operating system is it running?
