Other section on iPhone 4s filled?

I have a month old iphone 4s 16gb. I have 392 songs. I have 441 pictures. I got a message saying my storage is almost full and when I plugged in my phone it says all my storage is taken up by "other"… About 9.52 gb. I googled what to do and it told me to restore my phone and when I restored it the other section just grew bigger, even after it deleted all of my apps, What do i do?

"t told me to restore my phone"

What was "it"? Google is a search engine - so googling this problem would have given you many websites with different possible answers. I would have suggested "restore" as the last resort.

Instead I would have first suggested clearing the iPhone's safari history and cookies. That's what I did on my iPod and I probably don't use it for browsing as much as you. Hope that helps.

  • Why is the other section on my iPhone so high Why is the other section on my iPhone taking up 4.77 GB? I only have 16gb so that is a HUGE problem. I already restored it once from backup and it even takes up more after! Please help me. No, It wasn't jailbroken and I restored twice and it didn't work.
  • Why is my other section so large? Here is a screenshot of my iphone 5 storage. As you can see, the "other" section takes just about 40% of all of my space. Which stinks because I barely have space for anything else. Can anyone tell me why this could be so large? Or what I could to reduce this?
  • Why is my music not showing up in the artist section of my iPhone? I just started adding music to my Iphone 5 and quite a bit of the music will not show up in the Artist section. After searching for it I can usually find what I was looking for in either the Album or Song section, but I find it kind of annoying to have to search so hard just for music. Any idea what's causing this?
