Why are apps taking up so much memory?

My iPod has recently started telling me that I'm low on memory and no matter how many apps I delete it seems to make very little difference. I then started deleting music because I thought it would probably be more effective but at the moment more memory is being used on apps than on music and "other" put together.
I only have 20 downloaded apps and yet they're taking up 3.7GB of space. From what I've seen this sounds completely unreasonable so what is going on? Is there a way that I can find out how much memory each app is using?
Many thanks for any helpful answers.

Apps generally speaking take very little space, unless you have something like a location Map database downloaded (think GPS app), or maybe a game that has tons of screen images.  Otherwise apps really do not take up much space, which is why when you delete them it does not make much of a difference.
So, again, unless you have one of the above mapping or very large game apps, you need to look to something else for the source of your storage usage.
What does iTunes say about how your storage usage is distributed?

  • I do not have many messages but my iphone 5s says messages take up 4.6GB of space.  When comparing with friends who have many more message, less than 1 GB is being used on their phones.  Why are mine taking up so much space and how do I correct that?

    I do not have that many messages on my new iPhone 5s (maybe about 15 conversations and only one or two going back a little ways) yet when I go to Settings, Usage it shows that my messages are taking up 4.6GB of space.  When comparing with others (some who have hundeds of messages) they are using under 1GB for their messages.  Why are mine taking up so much space??

    I found a post with this solution that worked for me - .Do a backup, then download ibackupbot. It lets you look into the contents of that backup. Look in system files>mediadomain>library>sms>attachments. I found a ton of huge files related to long deleted texts. ibackupbot let me delete all that old crap. I then restored the phone with that now modifec backup and Bingo! freed up 9 GB. No problems.
    But note, if you are not technically inclined you probaly don't want to be digging around and deleting back up files. You delete the wrong thing and you could jack up your phone badly. Be careful.

  • Why are Apps taking up space on my Mac in iTunes when I have iCloud?

    The Apps in iTunes on my Mac take up a lot of disk space. Why are they there at all? I use iCloud to backup my iPhone and iPad. iTunes Store keeps my purchase history. So, why are the Apps taking up space on my computer?

  • Why are my photos using so much memory?

    I typically upload my photos from my iPhone 6 to iPhoto after a few months, then delete them all when prompted to do so on iPhoto. I then copy some photos I want to keep on my phone, and go on about my day. However, I noticed how much space photos are taking up on my phone: 2.2 gigs! I only have 99 photos and 1 video on my phone, so how is this possible and what can I do to free up space?

    I deleted all my photos and it still says my photos are taking up space with the Photo Library under the Photos & Camera tab.

  • Why are apps taking so long to download/update in the app store?

    Applications i am trying to download or update in the app store on my macbook air (OS X Yosemite 10.10.1) take days/weeks to load at least half on average. Why is this happening and how can i speed the downloads/updates up, it's frustrating.

    It's probably your internet speed, or something on your computer is impeding the speed.  Try to do the updates from safe mode.  OS X: What is Safe Boot, Safe Mode? - Apple Support

  • Why are the photos i print much darker than the monitor image?

    why are the photos i print much darker than the monitor image?

    Please read this post then provide some details.  What printer model? What operating system? What program are you printing from?
    Some programs such as Photoshop give the option to print to CMYK or sRGB color spaces.  Even though the printer uses CMYK inks the driver is expecting sRGB data.  If CMYK is selected the prints will be much too dark.
    Another thing to check is the media type.  If you are printing on plain paper and have seelcted Photo paper the prints have too much ink.

  • Why does the JRE use so much memory?

    I know this question has been asked a million times in one form or another but I have not seen a complete answer yet. When I compile and run the following code under WindowsXP pro, it appears that the JRE is using 3.1MB or RAM. When I run a similar program using C++ the program only uses 630k.
    public class HelloWorld
    public static void main(String args[])
    System.out.println("Hello World");
    Why 3MB to show "HelloWorld"? I love Java, it is much easier and more enjoyable to develop with but our applications appear to use large amounts of memory. I realize that making calls to the runtime object to check the amount of "heap" memory we are using will probably show much less memory being used but Task Manager shows 3MB. It is sometimes hard to convince my fellow developers of he benefits of Java when there are strange issues like this.
    Thanks in advance

    Java uses that much memory because every time you start a Java program, even this small, it loads into RAM the whole Java Virtual Machine. Which is itself a very large C++ program - on the order of several hundred thousand lines. Compare that to your C++ HelloWorld program - and you see the reason for a difference...
    So a real question is, is it possible to write a modern Java VM such that it uses space proportional to the size/complexity of the Java program that it executes. Partially that's possible - for example I understand that say native GUI libraries are separate from the main JVM dll, so when you don't use AWT/Swing, you don't waste space with related native code. However, for the core JVM it's probably very difficult to separate parts of functionality such as the interpreter, the dynamic compiler, the runtime system, the garbage collector, the serviceability stuff, etc. They are very interdependent, and thus, probably unless you have this goal from the beginning (and ready to sacrifice some performance/maintainability for it), you can't do that.
    There exist, however, a bunch of other JVMs of all sizes, say those used in mobile phones (or even smart cards!), that consume a lot less memory. They, however, typically implement only a subset of the full Java functionality. On the other hand, the HotSpot VM that comes with Sun's JDK, that you probably use, is a full-fledged JVM that implements everything, can be used for huge server apps, etc. - no wonder its minimum memory consumption is a few megs.

  • Apps taking up too much space on my computer harddrive?

    Hi guys,
    Whenever I hook my iPad & iPhone up to iTunes it automatically starts to upload all of the apps from both devices onto my computer. This wouldn't be such a problem, but between the iPhone and the iPad, it takes up around 40 GB of space from apps all by themselves. I store music/videos on an external harddrive so I'm not completely starved for harddrive space but I was wondering if someone could tell me what I can do to keep my iPad/iPhone apps from eating up too much space on my computer?
    Seems like I should be able to avoid having the iPhone/iPad (I use both) upload and backup all of my apps to my computer through iTunes but I also tried doing a backup straight ti iCloud and it didn't do the trick.
    Does anyone have any answers on this please? Thanks.

    400 apps taking up 13.6Gb so I get an estimate of 1,175 (wow I have some bulky apps!) but 40Gb sounds like quite a haul.
    A couple of things come to mind. First is that occasionally iTunes can neglect to delete the old copy when apps are updated so you could have some orphaned files in your Mobile Applications folder.
    Second, your apps should be stored in the same location as your music and movies but I'm guessing from what you've written that they're not. This means you are likely to have a split library with the database and supporting files on your internal drive and media in another folder, but in the old school layout. Assuming you are happy letting iTunes organize your files (and you have a backup) using File > Library > Organize Library > Rearrange files in the folder <Media Folder>, followed by File > Library > Organize Library > Consolidate files will sort that out. You'll have to delete the now redundant copies of the apps on your internal drive. The good news is that this will have dealt with any orphaned apps.
    In the long term you might want to consider making your library portable.
    Note switching to iCloud backup should not remove any content from your computer. I suspect purchases still get transferred when syncing but I've not tested it.

  • Why are apps appearing in my music folder?

    Just wondering if I can delete these ".IPA" (iOS App) files and .XML files that have appeared in my Music folder. I'm on a PC, so the files are assigned to iTunes, but I still don't know why they're here. I think they appeared after I synced my iPod Touch (2nd Gen) with the computer. There's also over 300 "ITC2" files which I have no clue about. All the app files are apps I have on my iPod, so that much makes sense, and some of the "ITC2" files are the same name as the 2 books I have on my iPod. All the others are just things like "4C9515F643471A36-D9A5A87B5F4A4EDF.ITC2". I just want to know if I can delete them really.
    Thanks
    PS: Isn't leaving iOS app files lying around kind of asking me to share them for free on the internet? Just saying.

    Here are typical layouts for the iTunes folders:
    .ipa files are your apps and should end up in Mobile Applications. .itc2 files are cached artwork and should end up in the Album Artwork folders. These are normal parts of the iTunes library and should be left alone. I can't tell exactly what you did when you connected your device but it looks like you allowed iTunes to transfer your purchases into your library. This is a good thing. If your iPod was lost, stolen or damaged, you would have the files needed to rebuild your setup on a replacement device.
    The iTunes folder is normally created inside your profile's Music folder, with the iTunes Media folder inside iTunes. If the files in question are appearing outside of the normal folder structure outlined above then perhaps you have the wrong setting for the media folder.

  • Why does Firefox use up so much memory? My Windows Task Manager shows it using 109 Meg just now asking this question. Thanks

    Pretty simple: I want to know how I can keep Firefox from using so much memory when in use. 100-200 meg is common. Thank you

    Hi musicfan,<br />Sorry you are having problems with Firefox. Maybe you should have asked earlier and we could have fixed it.
    Reading your comments I do not see that rolling back to an insecure Firefox 22 will actually help you much. You are probably best using IE, unless you have also damaged that.
    *[[Export bookmarks to Internet Explorer]]
    You should not use old versions they are insecure. Security fixes are publicised and exploitable.
    * [[Install an older version of Firefox]]
    * https://www.mozilla.org/security/known-vulnerabilities/firefox.html
    Most others will not be having such problems. We are now able to say that with confidence because after developers missed a regression in Firefox 4 telemetry was introduced so that data was obtained. It may be an idea to turn on your telemetry, if you have not already done so, and decide to stick with Firefox.
    *[[Send performance data to Mozilla to help improve Firefox]]
    Trying safe mode takes seconds. Unfortunatly if you are not willing to do even rudimentary troubleshooting there is not anything we can do to help you.

  • Why does Safari eat up so much memory?

    Hi,
    I've finally had it with Safari and have switched to Camino.  I'd like to know why Safari eats up so much memory.  Things will be going slow, I'll get the rainbow swirl and I'll open the activity monitor and see that Safari has two different process names going on, on of which is eating 2GB +.  Just to compare, I'll open the same windows in Camino and I'll get a maximum usage of 300 MB. 
    The issue only got worse after the last update. 
    Thank you,
    steven

    Hi, sorry I didn't reply sooner.  For some reason, this post doesn't come up when I look in "my discussions" at the top.
    Currenly I have a 1TB HD with 700 GB used, I have 9 TB external HD (1TB for Time Machine, the rest for storage) that's only half full.  And yes, I use video editing software extensivly and Pages as well.  I'll often surf while writing to research and I have programs like Outlook running in the background.  The one thing which has become a problem is playing Flash (like streaming The Daily Show), which becomes choppy and slows down Safari to a crawl.  I thought it was my Internet connection but I have 10mps, super fast.
    @ Johm, about page outs, here's the data
    Page Ins 7.05
    Page outs 57.3
    Swap Used 51.3
    VM size 183
    I'm guessing I should purchase some memory based on these numbers.  Memory isn't as cheep in Japan as it is in the states, at least not for Mac.  Does anyone have a suggestion for a brand I should look out for or any stats that will help me decide which type to purchase or how much?
    Thank you much,
    Steven

  • Why does my mac have 100 gb of "back up" and 90 gb of "other" memory used up when I have hardly anything on it. Is there any way to identify what those things are that is consuming so much memory?

    I have 25 gb of music. 20 gb of movies. 5 gb of pictures. 10 gb of apps. 102 gb of "back up. and 85 gb of "other. which leaves less than 70 gb open on my harddrive.. Why? What is that almost 200 gb of memory? How Do i pinpoint it? I use time machine and an external harddrive to back up my files so what is that? any answers or ideas?

    Do not worry about the backups.  They will be deleted automatically after a week, or if your HD gets too full.  See #30 in Time Machine - Frequently Asked Questions.
    The "other" stuff is just that -- all sorts of things that don't fall into the few categories listed.  The operating system, system work files, plus lots of your stuff like documents, mail, etc.  See Lion's Storage Display

  • What is kernel_task, and why is it taking up so much RAM and CPU?

    I have recently upgraded to OS X Mavericks, and despite promises of extreme performance, my MPB has been running slower than ever before. According to Activity Monitor, "kernal_task" is taking up 600+ MB of RAM and hasn't dropped since I upgraded. It's also been taking between 4% and 8% of my CPU. When I first upgraded, there was a little alert message that said it was optomizing my system, and it may slow down the computer and decrease battery life. The message lasted for two days, then finally went away. (I didn't close it, so I assumed it had finished.) However, kernal_task, which I thought was the optomization, has been on the top of the list of RAM usage and top 3 on the list of % CPU since I upgraded. PLEASE tell me what it is, and how I can decrease it's toll on my performance! It won't let me stop the task or even get more information on it when I select it on the list of processes. Also, on a side note, Activity Monitor used to let you change its dock icon to a pie chart showing memory usage. Unfortunately, this feature seems to be gone. Is there any way I can get it back or use a different app? I don't want to have it open on top of my stuff or as a window, I would like to see it in the dock. In fact, the chart isn't even in the memory tab of the Activity Monitor application anymore!
    Thank you so much to whoever can help me out in my panic and frustration. For the record, I am actually really great at computers, but I turned to the support community because I'm sure there's someone out there with more knowledge than me, even though I'm not a tech-illiterate person...

    That's not very high. Mine is over 1 GB. Typical is around 5-800 GBs depending upon what tasks are running.
    You don't need to add more RAM, just be careful not to run more concurrent tasks than are appropriate for your memory usage profile. It's really not a big deal unless it gets to 600 GBs. Then you have a problem.
    I disagree with McBlob about free disk space. Keep at least 10% of the drive's capacity as free space. For you that's 50 GBs, and that's adequate.

  • Kernal_Task taking up too much memory

    Okay, let me just start by saying that I do usually game on my mac, anyway,
    I was able to play fine and do everything without any frustration but everything changed when the Yosemite nation attacked, after I installed Yosemite I was not able to play any games on steam, it would either get into the game for a bit then crashing completely or just crash as soon as the game tries to launch. I speak of the mac itself and not just the game. Like for example, I am not able to use the keyboard as indicated by the lights going off, and am not able to force quit anything, everything just freezes (with music and sounds still playing) and I am unable to do anything besides hold down the power button to turn off my laptop then turn it on again. After some research I found out that it was a problem with my RAM so I open the Activity Monitor to check out what it was that used up my ram, and to my surprise it was this thing called "kernel_task" which was using up at least 650 MBs of Memory. I have 8 GBs of physical and Virtual memory. How do I relieve the amount of memory this uses up so I can actually do something without my Mac crashing? Also, it says that 7.02 some GBs of memory is being used.

    1. This procedure is a diagnostic test. It changes nothing, for better or worse, and therefore will not, in itself, solve the problem. But with the aid of the test results, the solution may take a few minutes, instead of hours or days.
    Don't be put off by the complexity of these instructions. The process is much less complicated than the description. You do harder tasks with the computer all the time.
    2. If you don't already have a current backup, back up all data before doing anything else. The backup is necessary on general principle, not because of anything in the test procedure. Backup is always a must, and when you're having any kind of trouble with the computer, you may be at higher than usual risk of losing data, whether you follow these instructions or not.
    There are ways to back up a computer that isn't fully functional. Ask if you need guidance.
    3. Below are instructions to run a UNIX shell script, a type of program. As I wrote above, it changes nothing. It doesn't send or receive any data on the network. All it does is to generate a human-readable report on the state of the computer. That report goes nowhere unless you choose to share it. If you prefer, you can act on it yourself without disclosing the contents to me or anyone else.
    You should be wondering whether you can believe me, and whether it's safe to run a program at the behest of a stranger. In general, no, it's not safe and I don't encourage it.
    In this case, however, there are a couple of ways for you to decide whether the program is safe without having to trust me. First, you can read it. Unlike an application that you download and click to run, it's transparent, so anyone with the necessary skill can verify what it does.
    You may not be able to understand the script yourself. But variations of the script have been posted on this website thousands of times over a period of years. The site is hosted by Apple, which does not allow it to be used to distribute harmful software. Any one of the millions of registered users could have read the script and raised the alarm if it was harmful. Then I would not be here now and you would not be reading this message.
    Nevertheless, if you can't satisfy yourself that these instructions are safe, don't follow them. Ask for other options.
    4. Here's a summary of what you need to do, if you choose to proceed:
    ☞ Copy a line of text in this window to the Clipboard.
    ☞ Paste into the window of another application.
    ☞ Wait for the test to run. It usually takes a few minutes.
    ☞ Paste the results, which will have been copied automatically, back into a reply on this page.
    The sequence is: copy, paste, wait, paste again. You don't need to copy a second time. Details follow.
    5. You may have started the computer in "safe" mode. Preferably, these steps should be taken in “normal” mode, under the conditions in which the problem is reproduced. If the system is now in safe mode and works well enough in normal mode to run the test, restart as usual. If you can only test in safe mode, do that.
    6. If you have more than one user, and the one affected by the problem is not an administrator, then please run the test twice: once while logged in as the affected user, and once as an administrator. The results may be different. The user that is created automatically on a new computer when you start it for the first time is an administrator. If you can't log in as an administrator, test as the affected user. Most personal Macs have only one user, and in that case this section doesn’t apply. Don't log in as root.
    7. The script is a single long line, all of which must be selected. You can accomplish this easily by triple-clicking anywhere in the line. The whole line will highlight, though you may not see all of it in the browser window, and you can then copy it. If you try to select the line by dragging across the part you can see, you won't get all of it.
    Triple-click anywhere in the line of text below on this page to select it:

    Copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C.
    8. Launch the built-in Terminal application in any of the following ways:
    ☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
    ☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
    ☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Terminal in the icon grid.
    Click anywhere in the Terminal window and paste by pressing command-V. The text you pasted should vanish immediately. If it doesn't, press the return key.
    9. If you see an error message in the Terminal window such as "Syntax error" or "Event not found," enter
    exec bash
    and press return. Then paste the script again.
    10. If you're logged in as an administrator, you'll be prompted for your login password. Nothing will be displayed when you type it. You will not see the usual dots in place of typed characters. Make sure caps lock is off. Type carefully and then press return. You may get a one-time warning to be careful. If you make three failed attempts to enter the password, the test will run anyway, but it will produce less information. In most cases, the difference is not important. If you don't know the password, or if you prefer not to enter it, press the key combination control-C or just press return  three times at the password prompt. Again, the script will still run.
    If you're not logged in as an administrator, you won't be prompted for a password. The test will still run. It just won't do anything that requires administrator privileges.
    11. The test may take a few minutes to run, depending on how many files you have and the speed of the computer. A computer that's abnormally slow may take longer to run the test. While it's running, there will be nothing in the Terminal window and no indication of progress. Wait for the line
    [Process completed]
    to appear. If you don't see it within half an hour or so, the test probably won't complete in a reasonable time. In that case, close the Terminal window and report what happened. No harm will be done.
    12. When the test is complete, quit Terminal. The results will have been copied to the Clipboard automatically. They are not shown in the Terminal window. Please don't copy anything from there. All you have to do is start a reply to this comment and then paste by pressing command-V again.
    At the top of the results, there will be a line that begins with the words "Start time." If you don't see that, but instead see a mass of gibberish, you didn't wait for the "Process completed" message to appear in the Terminal window. Please wait for it and try again.
    If any private information, such as your name or email address, appears in the results, anonymize it before posting. Usually that won't be necessary.
    13. When you post the results, you might see an error message on the web page: "You have included content in your post that is not permitted," or "You are not authorized to post." That's a bug in the forum software. Please post the test results on Pastebin, then post a link here to the page you created.
    14. This is a public forum, and others may give you advice based on the results of the test. They speak only for themselves, and I don't necessarily agree with them.

  • Why are Apps still not syncing between my iPhone 4S and iPad 4?

    I have a new iPad 4 and I also have an iPhone 4S.  I have enabled 'Automatic Downloads' on both, but for some reason, I can download Apps on one device and they're not showing up on the other.  The only thing I can figure is that maybe some of the Apps downloaded on the iPad, for example, aren't compatible with the iPhone 4S and therefore they don't automatically download.  Or, and I hope note, there's a glitch in the system :-(
    I like to have all my stuff sync'd to the extent possible, but this automated App synchronization doesn't really seem to be happening as advertised.
    And yes, I did go into iTunes on my PC and enable the automatic downloads there as well on the Preferences tab.
    Some example Apps that didn't download from my iPad to my iPhone are USA Today, Men's Health Mag, UPS and Quick Scan barcode scanner.
    Any help is much appreciated.

    I may recall that you might have to charge your device in order for the automatic download to work. But I'm not 100% sure, it is worth trying out.
