Now maybe you should crawl back under your bridge mr troll.

Of course the process is the same mr fool. The inefficiency of the process is not. Jeesh

(my apologies if this has already been asked/answered)

Does anyone know if there is a way to only sync your photos (exclude videos from your photo roll)? With 5 GB of free storage it's pretty easy to hit that limit if you have a handful of videos of moderate length on your iPhone! I synched my phone and immediately got a warning email that I was close to the 5 GB limit ?!? I would like to sync my pictures, but then I have to worry about a few long videos hogging the whole 5 GB quota.

Well, that's a lot of files! The other section is now 9.1GB. I'm open to suggestions about how to get my free space back.

That Other is stuff of yours synced to the machine that wasn't completed. Desync and resync.

Thanks for your response. I'm not sure what you mean by desync. Do you mean restore? Is desync a jailbreak functioning? I'm not jailbroken.

I mean untick all your boxes so nothing's synced to the device, sync, and then tick everything again and sync again.

If you have a lot of Other, chances are that's just real content where something went wrong and it isn't being seen properly by the device.

Not sure whether it's been posted here already, but a quick forum search for the link didn't turn up anything:

OK, OK, calm down.
Strictly speaking, you can. 8 billion¹ beta-testers out there in Southeast Asia got to work yesterday after having seen our posts on this forum. They've found out how to add the Newsstand to specially crafted folder, exploiting Apple's springboard app error. It does not make any practical sense as you can not run Newsstand out of that folder; you can not move Newsstand into any folder either.
So, there's how to do:
  1. The folder should expand while being created or modified. (Beta-testers did not understand it, but that's how it works),
  2. Prepare Newsstand and 2 (two) more auxiliary applications, which will originate that special folder; put all three in line on empty home screen,
  3. Prepare to operate your iPhone real fast,
  4. Drag one of auxiliary apps onto another so the iPhone starts creating a folder; first time created folder expands,
  5. Just after you've dragged one auxiliary onto another, while the iPhone is still creating the folder and has not finished yet, drag the Newsstand into the screen area, where the folder will expand to, (Beta-testers think, it's about probability; it's not, you just should drag Newsstand in proper area)
  6. Just created folder expands and the Newsstand, having been dragged in the area of folder expansion, reappears inside the newly created folder.
  7. You can not run Newsstand, which has been put in folder, the Springboard crashes.

P.S. I think 8 billion beta-testers do better job, than some dozen of Apple's own testers. That dozen of Apple's own testers can now be fired out. Hands down.
P.P.S. You can put any folder in that kind of specially crafted folder as well.

In other news, making up crap never lends itself to you being taken seriously.

You newbie must be 8 billionth good heart trying to enlighten me on how making up crap will harm me one day. It won't happen to me, just get over it.

The fact that you're still on that kick brings me no end of humor.

If I were your boss, you'd be fired yesterday. And unhireable by anyone else on the face of the Earth.

Your behavior does not become a human. Are you even sentient? How can someone call themselves human and behave in this manner?

Uh I have iOS 4 on my first-gen iPhone. Heavily modified, but it's on there. And Android 1.6.

And if you press Control+Option+Open Apple+8, you enter tripsville.

What are you blathering about? It's the same deal as previous upgrades. The servers get the shit kicked out of them for a while and then it's all ok.

Of course if your a dipshit who ran the beta and dont know what your doing then you can have a lot of issues getting sorted. You will find that a lot of those complaining were running the beta prior to the official update and 'dug their own graves' so to speak.

Now quietly shuffle off to the land if ignore with your trolling comments. (yes, I checked and you constantly spout FUD with reference to all things Apple). You probably don't have any Apple products whatsoever and are fuelled by impotent poor man rage.

Notifications and browser and lock screen are all direct copies of Android. It's good iOS finally has these, though. Caught up to Android from 2008.

That's awesome, thanks. I love learning random tricks here. It's night mode!!!
