Other on iphone taking up too much space?

Recently, my iphone 4s was saying that apps were taking up like 7gb of my storage even though the amount each app was saying didn't add up to 7 gb. I found out it was pinterest, and deleted it. Then, all of the sudden, "other" jumps up and is taking up all the storage on my phone. Is there a way to fix this without restoring my iphone?

No, you can't fix it, it was most likely because of a software update

Sorry, You have to reset or take it to apple. The other is preinstalled software and updates

Nope, You will have to get it restored, as none other option is left. The "other" you have mentioned is a part of system inbuilt features and it can't be resolved like dis. So plug your iphone to itunes n get it restored

Hope this is beneficial

  • Why is other taking up so much space on my iPhone? - 1 And more importantly, what can I get rid of to get more space? I've deleted texts, calls, voicemails, emails, photos, songs, safari cookies & data, AND notes. What is going on? It's taking up around 3 GBs (or whatever) and it's killing me.

  • Why are my pictures taking up so much space on my iPhone I have an iPhone 4S w/ 16 GB of storage. I only have MAYBE 200 pictures at the MAX and, yes, a few videos only a few minutes long, but for some reason it says I have 8.2 GB of memory used on pictures. I just went through all of my pictures, and I was thinking there had to be some app or SOMETHING using a lot of picture memory somehow. P Please, can anyone give me a little help and tell me what could be causing this?
  • What is taking up so much space on my iPhone? I only have two pages of apps, 322 songs and only 52 pictures. I did the math and all that only takes up 3.6 GB (my phone is 8 GB but only 6.33 is available) so that means I should have about 2.5 GB left on my phone but somehow I only have 722 MB! So what is taking up so much memory and how can I get rid of it?
