When I buy a 16gb iPad air, how much space do I actually have after pre-installed apps? Can any of those be deleted?

How much space do you get on a ipad air 16gb considering the pre-installed apps? Can any of those be removed to free up space?

With iOS 7 it is recommended that you have 15-20% of the storage space on the device free.
For a 16 GB device that is 2.4 - 3.2 GB free. So 13 minus 3= 10 GB of storage for music, photos, movies and documents.

  • So, how much space do I actually have available?

    OK, so I have my new MacBook Air with a 256 GB SSD and I have been using it for a fortnight or so.
    One thing that perplexes me is that I am getting different values for the available space left on the SSD and it is a little confusing. The system, of course, is running OS X 10.7 Lion, but I just don't know if this is a MBA, SSD, OSX or just plain old maths issues!
    In the Finder, I am told I have 123.44 GB available ...
    In PathFinder, I am told I have 108.6 GB available ...
    In Disk Utility, I am also told the same as PathFinder, that I have 108.64 GB available ...
    And finally, Terminal (and using df -h) tells me something else (although this is probably a base 2 issue), that I have 101 GB free.
    So, which one is right?!
    Thanks,
    Sam

    Try
    df -H
    for GB output

  • When I download an app I had to put in payment settings cause it was expiring,after that it was downloading but then said 'cannot download because your ipad does not enough space' but I actually have 3.3 gb while the game is 1.4 .pls tell what to do

    When I download an app I had to put in payment settings cause it was expiring,after that i paid and it was downloading but then said 'cannot download because your ipad does not enough space' but I actually have 3.3 gb while the game is 1.4 . I tried rebooting and powering off but still it didnt work even when I clicked the app( which still hasn't downloaded yet). What do I do now?

    The GB size of the download file is the compressed size (like .zip or .dmg). When the file is installed/uncompressed it can be 2-3 times larger.
    How much space is used by your Other? 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.

  • HT4914 1. My music takes up 3.5GB og space on my iOS devices. How much space will it take up after I subscribe to iTunes Match? 2. Will it include podcasts?

    1. My music takes up 3.5GB og space on my iOS devices. How much space will it take up after I subscribe to iTunes Match? 2. Will it include podcasts?

    The fix was to completely remove all Apple Software following guides in previous posts.
    Then download and re-install latest iTunes 64-bit, making sure to Run As Administrator.
    This fixed it. Now the next thing seems to be that as I move from one device to another to close and restart iTunes between each one. Treat it gently. It seems to break easily and a lot.

  • If you buy a 16gb iPhone 5s, how much room is actually left for storage after ios7 and all the basic applications are installed?

    On my iPod i only had 8gb and was happy with it, i never managed to fill it up. However, I've heard that the room left for iPhones(I'm looking at the 16gb one in particular) is small because of how much there is on them in comparison to iPods.
    Could somebody please shed some light on this for me?
    Thanks

    It isn't just the OS and preinstalled apps (and there are more of them on the iPhone 5s) it is the way drive space is counted by the OS. You should have about 13.1 to 13.5 GB.

  • How much RAM do I actually have?

    Hi, this might be a stupid question but I'm simply confused.
    I have a T510 that should have 4GB of RAM since that's what I paid for, here are the specs I got:
    Instead this is what I have, the sticker says 2GB not 4GB, however when I go to system info. this is what it says..The FRU number is 55Y3713
    Any help is appreciated thanks! 

    Unless you specifically requested a 32bit windows version, you really should get a 64bit, your spec sheet does say it comes with 64bit, but your system info clearly says you have 32bit windows, so you can't use all of your RAM.

  • Choosing b/w 32GB iPad mini RD and 16GB iPad Air

    Hello there,
    Have a confusion b/w 32GB iPad mini with Retina Display and 16GB iPad Air.  
    My usage is limited to reading ebooks,using some apps, watching movies and occationally playing games.
    Could anybody plz suggest the best...
    Thanks

    I do not own an iPad Mini but I have used one before in an Apple Store and they are quite comfortable. You do have to hold it with two hands (or if you have big hands, only need to hold it with one! ) but the screen does look as good/better than the iPad Air as it is the same resolution.
    And to me, the full-sized iPads are only comfortable when they are on your lap, not when holding them.
    And, of course more storage is a bonus - I have about 100 songs and about 200 apps (some of which are 1GB+) on a 32GB iPad w/ Retina Display so 32GB should do you just fine. 16GB would only be good if you don't download much.
    Good luck with your choice! And I hope this helps!

  • [SOLVED] How much space is REALLY used on my HDD?

    Hi there,
    Today I moved my /home/ dir to its own partition, so that my settings are safe from the system.
    I have a question about the used space:
    When I use "df -h" to see how much space is used, this is the output for home:
    /dev/sda2             184G  465M  175G   1% /home
    So 465 MB should be used. When I right click on home and select properties only 243,5 MB are used!?
    I know about the MB/MiB problem... but that would not be that extreme...
    Any ideas?

  • PROBLEMS WITH HOW MUCH SPACE IS ACTUALLY BEING USED

    Hello,
    I've just recently purchased a Toshiba Dual Core laptop (225 gigs + 3 gig memory.) It works pretty well, but I've had to reload the windows and programs again. The reason is that after reloading I have about 203 gigs of space, but then I install flash CS3 (550 mgs and photoshop 200+) After I've installed all the doc files and everything I end up with about 200 gigs of space which is great. However, I've unistalled norton and installed AVG Professional. My space amount has gone down from 200 to about 193 gigs. I don't get it; it doesn't make sense because this is isn't how much space I've actually used. I've deleted temp files and all the install files of these other programs and what's even more crazy is that when I go ahead and run scan disk to deleted unecessary files, my space goes down in size and it shows that I have even less space! Has anyone else run into this problem? Let me know, perhaps there's a solution. 
    Thanks,
    Tseyigai

    How much space would be reasonable for me to cut back on?
    I've set the shadow storage on the computers around here to 10 GB. Suit yourself.
    You can save quite a bit of hard drive space by turning hibernation off. Check the size of that file. It's c:\hiberfil.sys.
    And look through the stuff Disk Cleanup cites for more savings.
    But if you really can't get along without more space, you should add external drives or upgrade this one.

    No I don't have another computer. I was thinking initially I would put them on my ipad but since I don't have enough gb maybe I can store them in some cloud thing? Sorry am a bit of a Luddite when it comes to all this. I just need to have them stored someplace and accessible to play when I need to. Thanks for your help.
