Why does my iPhone 4s 64 gb says it has 57 gb ??

why does my iPhone 4s 64 gb says it has 57 gb ??

Formatting mostly but is more down to the misalignment of terminology Mb/Gb and MB/GB
64Gb roughly 59.6GB
64 x (1000/1024)x(1000/1024)x(1000/1024)
So 4Gb is around 3.72GB
250Gb is about 232GB
1Tb is roughly 931GB
or something like that
But the formatting will be proportional to size too as it kind of stores directions to where the data is
AND of course because of the iOS (operational system that the device has installed on it)

  • Why does my iphone and ipad keep saying apple ID disabled but i can log in to the itunes store on my laptop?

    i can't download or update free apps on my ipad or iphone. i can log in to my i-store account on my laptop and download stuff.  when i try on the iphone or ipad i keep getting apple ID disabled message. i had to enter in my account and new password to get to this community site so the password is working. but when i enter the updated password on the iphone or ipad i keep getting...apple ID disabled.  thanks

    When you try to update the app, is the Apple ID that comes up the same as the Apple ID in Settings>iTunes & App Store?
    Have you tried any troubleshooting steps? e.g. log in on another device, reset password etc.

  • Why does my iPhone say it doesnt have any more storage?

    My phone had about 250-300MB of free space.  Then, I synched it with my computer.  It said I had to delete some stuff because it didnt have enough room to synch.  So I deleted about 1GB of apps, and as part of the synch, I updated 2 apps that were around 50MB combined.  Keep in mind these are basically replacing apps that were already on the phone.  Now, it still says I dont have enough room to put them on my phone, and iTunes is telling me I am 314MB over capacity.  If it all fit on there before, and I only put 50MB on there but I took 1GB off, how is this possible?  I have an iPhone 5 and the latest version of iTunes.

  • HT4993 Why does my iphone say activation error

    Why does my iphone say activation error

    Because you are running an unauthorized version of the beat software for iOS 7. Or you are a legitimate developer and there is an issue with your last update. You will need to go to the developers section to fix it if that is the case.
    If you are not a developer contact the developer who got the beta for you.

  • Why does my iPhone 4 always say "sync will resume when "... MacBook Pro" is available??? i can't seem to sync over wifi

    why does my iPhone 4 always say "sync will resume when "... MacBook Pro" is available??? i can't seem to sync over wifi

    Try the following:
    1. Connect the phone to your computer using the USB cable and let it sync.
    2. Uncheck "Sync with this iPhone over Wi-Fi"
    3. Click Apply
    4. Check "Sync with this iPhone over Wi-Fi"
    5. Click Apply
    6. Quit iTunes
    7. Disconnect the phone from the USB cable
    8. Make sure your phone is connected to your Wi-Fi network
    9. Open iTunes
    iTunes should see your iPhone and connect to it. Go under Settings > General > iTunes Wi-Fi Sync and see if you can initiate a sync.

  • TS4036 why does my iphone say it cant restore when 98 per done

    why does my iphone say it cant restore when 98 per done

    There's no way a 16GB model phone has more than than capacity.  I have no idea what you mean by AutoRun icon.  Is that an app you downloaded?  Did you jailbreak?
    The "advertised" capacity of all storage devices is based on a decimal definition of "Gigabytes" where 1 GB is defined as 1,000,000,000 bytes.  However computers see and calculate storage based on binary definitions where 1 GB = 1,073 742,824 bytes.  Thus a 16 GB "decimal" device is only 14.9 real, binary gigabytes.
    Also, there are additional loses due to formatting overhead and the iOS.  RAM memory is separate and not used from the supplied flash disk.

    Why does my Iphone says software update unavailable??

    I have a 5 and got the message that the "software update is not available at this time. Try again later". Everyone is jamming the server trying to update at the same time. I'll try later this evening. Scary about the problem people are having after the update. They are saying their phones need to be re-activated. My IPhone is my only phone. Good luck everyone!

  • Why does my iphone 6 show 700 songs on it and itunes says that there are no songs on my phone?

    why does my iphone 6 show 700 songs on it and itunes says that there are no songs on my phone?

    The "streaming" that iTunes Match does is not the traditional streaming we are used to. iOS 6 actually downloads the song to non-permanent memory on the iOS device in a cache. The advantage of this is it then makes the tracks available for listening to again without having to stream it again. You can clear out the cache by either power cycling the device or disabling/enabling iTM. I prefer doing the former.

  • HT1766 Why does my iPhone say I don't have enough storage even after I went into iTunes to delete over 25 apps. Say what?

    Why does my iPhone say I don't have enough storage even after I went into iTunes to delete over 25 apps. Say what?

    I would guess it is that you do not have enough space.  For what, I have no idea, as you have done little to explain your issue.

  • HT3887 why does my iPhone say device not supported when connecting to my make even after it has successfully paired?

    why does my iphone say device not supported when connecting to my mac pro, even though it has already succesfuly paired? I also use a wirless bluetooth keyboard and mouse on the computer successfully.
    Also when I turn Bluetooth on on the phone the devices cog never stops turning (forever serching for a device)

    iTunes automatically syncs voice memos to your iTunes library when you connect iPhone to your computer.
    It couldn't be much easier than that as you don't actually have to do anything more than normal.
    This lets you listen to voice memos on your computer and provides a backup if you delete them from iPhone.
    Voice memos are synced to the Voice Memos playlist. iTunes creates the playlist if it doesn’t exist. When you sync voice memos to iTunes, they remain in the Voice Memos application until you delete them. If you delete a voice memo on iPhone, it isn’t deleted from the Voice Memos playlist in iTunes. However, if you delete a voice memo from iTunes, it is deleted from iPhone the next time you sync with iTunes.
    USB syncing is far faster than Bluetooth.
