When Syncing New iPad Air 2 iTunes Shows "other" file of 49gb

After setting up and syncing my new 128gb iPad Air 2 ; iTunes now shows a 49gb of "other" but my iPad shows this as available space.
What could be the "other" file be and how do I remove it? This keeps preventing me from syncing any changes to this ipad.
Thanks!!

Interestingly this seems to have sorted itself.
When I was trying it yesterday, it was my first syncing of the new iPad Air, and the Home Pages were not visible in iTunes.
Today I reconnected and carried out an automated backup, then when I selected the Apps tab - there were all the Home Pages.
Not sure why this should happen, but - problem solved!

  • I can't see the Home Pages view when syncing my IPad Air with iTunes

    I have transferred about 80 apps from my previous ipad2 by syncing the new iPad Air in iTunes (using the USB connection).  The Home Screens view in the Apps tab of iTunes does not show the individual pages, so I cannot regroup my Apps into logical groups.
    There is a momentary flash on the screen showing what looks like a Home page, then it vanishes to show a blank view.
    Both the iPad Air (64GB, wifi & cellular) and my copy of iTunes are up-to-date.

  • Issues syncing new iPad air with iTunes

    Hi everyone-
    I work at an Apple Reseller and I am trying to trouble shoot an issue for one of my customers. He brought in an iPad 3 with information on it that he backed up to iTunes and wants to put it on his new iPad air. The issue is that the PC would not recognize the new iPad Air, but will recognize the older device. He is running Windows 7 on a PC and is using the newest version of iTunes. Does anyone know if there are any special drivers he needs to have? Or why iTunes won't recognize the new iPad air? Has anyone else had this issue? Please respond. Thank you!!
    <Email Edited by Host>

    is the new device running ios 7.0.3?  if not update ios over wifi.

  • Transferring PDF's from Ipad 1 to new Ipad air using itunes on a pc

    I have several pdf documents on my old ipad 1 and want to transfer them to my new ipad air.  When I connect my old ipad 1 to itunes ( on a pc ) and click on the books tab under my ipad 1 and then sync books and when I go to the Library there is no place that I can find that shows my pdf documents.  Where are these documents stored on my pc itunes and how do I get them on my new ipad air?  I have seen similar questions like this but they all are about using a Mac as the main computer and I can not find anything regarding using itunes on a pc to do this transfer.  Anyone have a suggestion??

    Transferring your prepaid cellular data account depends on your carrier. AT&T lets you move it yourself when you go to Cellular Data in Settings and log into your account with your previous AT&T user name and password. For iPads with Sprint service, you can set up an account on the new iPad and contact Sprint Customer Care (888-211-4727 and go through the menus) to deactivate the old plan and get credit for unused service. For Verizon, call the company’s customer service number for mobile broadband support (800-786-8419) and ask to have your account transferred.

  • HT2729 syncing new ipad mini with itunes

    trying to sync my new ipad mini to my older macbook with itunes 10.6 it says i need 10.7.
    When I check for upgrades it says mine is the latest version. Help?

    The situation you are probably in is that your Mini wants a newer operating system and iTunes than your older computer can handle. It is quite common for mac apps and programs to have a limited 'backwards compatibility' where new programs and devices will cease compatibility with older devices and programs and operating systems.
    Your choice will probably be to upgrade your computer or use only iCloud to sync your mini.

  • When Syncing my ipad, it does not show the business PO Box field from outlook which is the first line of the address

    Hi, I was wondering if someone out there could help me.
    I am trying to syncronise my outlook address book with my Ipad.
    The actual sync does work but it is missing the field Business Address PO Box, and this is where the first part of the address is stored, so when I try to look up an address on my ipad part of it is missing.
    However if I send the contact by email to my ipad as a internet format vCard it will import the whole address. However as I have 400+ contacts I really don't want to have to do it manually.
    Many thanks for any advice given.

    terminology is the issue here.
    Whilst AOL have refered to these additional email accounts as identities basically forever, they are not identities, they are email accounts. So simply add it to Thunderbird as an existing email account (File menu ) New> existing mail account

    Hi were you able to resolve yours?
    I was very worried losing all my medical stuff on my iPad Air 2, plus i have nothing to use for the next day! So i have to try all the possible things i read on the internet!! And this worked on my part (Thank God, and thank you Google)
    Perform a hard reboot
    Hold down the Home button and Power button on your iPhone or iPad and keep holding them until you see the Apple logo. Once you do, you can let go. When your device boots back up, go ahead and check to see if the apps have started re-downloading. If they still appear to be stuck, continue on.

  • TS3697 My new iTunes does not show me a PHOTOS tab when syncing my iPad 3. It only shows Music, Films and Apps tabs on the top left menu.

    My new iTunes does not show me a PHOTOS tab when syncing my iPad 3. It only shows Music, Films and Apps tabs on the top left menu.
    What am I going to do?

    The Photos tab doesn't appear there. If you are on iTunes 11 on your computer then you may want to re-enable the left-hand sidebar via View > Show Sidebar (option-command-S on a Mac, control-S on a PC), which might make it easier to navigate and my instructions may make more sense.
    To sync photos, connect and select your iPad on the left-hand side of your computer's iTunes (if you've enabled the sidebar), and on the right-hand side there should be a series of tabs, one of which should be Photos e.g. :
    If you select that tab you can then select which photo folders to sync to the iPad. There is a bit more info on this page. You will need to sync all the photos that you want on the iPad together in one go as only the most recent photo sync remains on the iPad - synced photos can't be deleted directly on the iPad, instead they are deleted by not including them in the next photo sync.
    If you haven't enabled the sidebar, then from your library click 'iPad' at the top right of the screen and you should get a series of buttons along the top of the screen, including one for Photos

  • HT2589 My new ipad air will not download apps or ask for my itunes account info when I do try to download or purchase an app.

    Just added the new ipad air to my itunes account. When I go to purchase or download apps it will not ask for my itunes account info, a grey box appears on my main screen with "waiting" under it and in the "app store" it will show the app that i chose with a constant spinning circle. Any ideas?

    The iCloud account has nothing to do with downloading apps over wireless, but if you do not have an iCloud account you can delete that account information if you want to do so.  Do you have other use of WiFi with the iPad?  It is connecting and working correctly for email and such?
    You could try going to Settings > General > Reset > Reset Network Settings and then re-select the WiFi network and enter the password again...then do a reboot by holding both the power and home buttons until the apple logo appears, ignore the red slider if that appears.
    All of that may clear problems of a minor nature.

  • New iPad Air won't sync with iTunes on Windows 8

    Hello,
    I have an iPad Air that will not sync with iTunes. That same machine however syncs with my original iPad and iPad 2 with no issues.
    Only thing that happens when I connect the iPad Air to the PC is a tile/window pops up like it is looking for photos on the USB device?
    I have tried disabling, uninstalling/reinstalling, updating the driver, all with no success. I even factory reset the iPad Air and didn't change the outcome.
    I can tell you that the iPad Air is running the latest firmware, my iTunes is the latest version, and Windows 8.1 is up to date, as well as both other iDevices syncing error free.
    Any insight anyone could provide on what I could be missing would be greatly appreciated.
    Thanks in advance.
