Why does my camera roll say it has 39.0 MB in my usage, when I don't actually have any photos or videos?

Try trash the following file
com.apple.ImageCaptureNotifications.DeviceDiscoveryDatabase.501 from
HD/Library/ Caches
and restart your mac.

Why does my camera roll say I am using 682 MB of storage but I only have 12 photos saved?

Why does my camera roll say I am using 682 MB of storage but I only have 12 photos saved to it?

If it's really a couple dozen pictures, I would expect it should be under 100 MB.
You can try resetting your iPhone by simultaneously pressing and holding the Home and Sleep/Wake buttons until you see the Apple Logo. This can take up to 15 seconds so be patient and don't release the buttons until the logo appears.
Try again to see if the used space is still so high.

Why does my camera roll use 10GB of my space, when I only have 508 photo's and video's on my camera roll?

I have some problems with the space on my Iphone 4s. I always get a message that says that I can't rec or can't take another picture because I don't have enough space on my phone. When I go to settings and check, my photo's and video's use almost 10GB (9,8GB). I have 407 pictures and 101 video's (not very long videos, more like short but many). In total i have 508 photo's and video's in my camera roll. My friends have like over a thousand pictures and video's, but they haven't used like 10GB of their space. So why does my 508 picutures and videos use som much more space??

Videos add up fast. A 30 second video on a 4S could easily be 85 MB. 101 of these would be almost 8.6 GB. Add 407 photos at 3 MB each and you reach 9.8 GB.
I would suggest you import some of these to your computer (especially some of the vidoes) and delete them from your phone, as explained here: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4083.

Why does my hd space say it has 0 audio, 0 photos and mostly all 'other' (yellow)?

My HD space had maxed out so I purchased "duplicate finder". Before I used duplicate finder, my files mainly were audio and very few other (yellow portion). My HD space has maxed out again but now, it's zero audio, zero photos and practically all yellow. That is impossible for me to have zero audio and zero photos. And what is "other"? I hope someone can help me on this...thanks in advance!

For information about the Other category in the Storage display, see this support article.
Empty the Trash if you haven't already done so. If you use iPhoto, empty its internal Trash first:
iPhoto ▹ Empty Trash
Do the same in other applications, such as Aperture, that have an internal Trash feature. Then reboot. That will temporarily free up some space.
According to Apple documentation, you need at least 9 GB of available space on the startup volume (as shown in the Finder Info window) for normal operation. You also need enough space left over to allow for growth of the data. There is little or no performance advantage to having more available space than the minimum Apple recommends. Available storage space that you'll never use is wasted space.
When Time Machine backs up a portable Mac, some of the free space will be used to make local snapshots, which are backup copies of recently deleted files. The space occupied by local snapshots is reported as available by the Finder, and should be considered as such. In the Storage display of System Information, local snapshots are shown asBackups. The snapshots are automatically deleted when they expire or when free space falls below a certain level. You ordinarily don't need to, and should not, delete local snapshots yourself. If you followed bad advice to disable local snapshots by running a shell command, you may have ended up with a lot of data in the Other category. Reboot and it should go away.
See this support article for some simple ways to free up storage space.
You can more effectively use a tool such as OmniDiskSweeper (ODS) to explore the volume and find out what's taking up the space. You can also delete files with it, but don't do that unless you're sure that you know what you're deleting and that all data is safely backed up. That means you have multiple backups, not just one.
Deleting files inside an iPhoto or Aperture library will corrupt the library. Any changes to a photo library must be made from within the application that created it. The same goes for Mail files.
Proceed further only if the problem isn't solved by the above steps.
ODS can't see the whole filesystem when you run it just by double-clicking; it only sees files that you have permission to read. To see everything, you have to run it as root.
Back up all data now.
If you have more than one user account, make sure you're logged in as an administrator. The administrator account is the one that was created automatically when you first set up the computer.
Install ODS in the Applications folder as usual. Quit it if it's running.
Triple-click anywhere in the line of text below on this page to select it, then copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C:
sudo /Applications/OmniDiskSweeper.app/Contents/MacOS/OmniDiskSweeper
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.
Paste into the Terminal window (command-V). You'll be prompted for your login password, which won't be displayed when you type it. You may get a one-time warning to be careful. If you see a message that your username "is not in the sudoers file," then you're not logged in as an administrator.
The application window will open, eventually showing all files in all folders, sorted by size with the largest at the top. It may take a few minutes for ODS to finish scanning.
I don't recommend that you make a habit of doing this. Don't delete anything while running ODS as root. If something needs to be deleted, make sure you know what it is and how it got there, and then delete it by other, safer, means. When in doubt, leave it alone or ask for guidance.
When you're done with ODS, quit it and also quit Terminal.

HT2731 why does my ipod keep saying your apple id has been disabled when i try to get a free app?

Why does my ipod keep saying 'your apple ID has been disabled when i try to get a free app???

If you rest it on your computer's iTunes then try logging out of your account on the iPod by tapping on your id in Settings > Store and then log back in and see if it then works.

Why does a specific website say validating and doesn't open the site for me?

why does a specific website say validating and doesnt open the site?

My Safari also has a hiccup. My ISP (comcast) helped me by suggesting I try the same task using a different browser (firefox). I had both installed, and firefox completed the task smoothly with no issues. I was told the problem was on my end and my safari browser was most likely flawed. I cannot find the procedure to uninstall & reinstall the Safari app. My iMac came with 2 discs (os & bundled apps) But the ability to choose Safari only, for this task remains illusive. Any suggestions or fixes to repair a glitch infected Safari will be appreciated.

Why does the camera shutter stay closed?

Why does the camera shutter stay stuck? The camera won't operate. I've rebooted several times, I've changed settings several times, I've held by finger over each camera as demostrated on a youtube video. Nothing has corrected the problem.

That happens sometimes. See this ongoing discussion. An appointment at the Genous Bar of an Apple store is probably in order:

Why does my IPad 2 say No Service?

Why does my IPad 2 say no service even though cellular data is turned on?

Not sure. Either you don't have service - not in range of an available cell tower, or your iPad has a problem.
Any change after powering your iPad off and on?

HT202157 Why does my apple TV say it needs hdcp compatibility. It never said that before. Now my apple tv is not working.

Why does my apple TV say it needs hdcp compatibility. It never said that before. Now my apple tv is not working.

Hello Rickpoulette,
The following article provides further information and could very well help get your Apple TV and your television cooperating again.
If HDCP authentication does not succeed, you may see one of the following symptoms:
A message may appear on your television stating "This content requires HDCP for playback. HDCP isn't supported by your HDMI connection."
You may see periodic bands of static, or full screen static, flashing across your TV screen.
If you are experiencing either of the symptoms above, try playing the same content again for at least another 10 seconds. If the issue persists, try the following steps until the issue is resolved:
Connect your Apple TV (2nd generation) directly to your HDTV using an HDMI cable.
Set your Apple TV and HDTV to off or sleep mode
From the Apple TV interface, select: Settings -> Sleep Now.
Turn off your TV and wait for about 10 seconds.
Turn your TV back on.
Press the Select button on your Apple TV remote to wake your Apple TV.
Some HDTVs may need a firmware update. Consult your TV manufacturer's user manual or online support pages for additional information about how to update your TV's firmware.
If available, try using a different HDMI to HDMI cable, such as an Apple HDMI to HDMI cable, directly between your Apple TV (2nd generation) and 720p HDCP-compatible HDTV.

Why does my Airport Express say "self assigned IP address"? No IP address for the ethernet, and it is not connecting to my cable router any longer...

Why does my Airport Express say "self assigned IP address"? No IP address for the ethernet, and it is not connecting to my cable router any longer...

Some cable providers.....like mine, a well known company......seem to take anywhere from a few moments to sometimes up to 30 minutes to allow their equipment back at the cable company to fully reset and issue a new fresh connection.
So, it would not hurt to leave things powered down for 15-20 minutes or more when you perform the reset that John Galt suggests.
