Why the space available on the iPhone never match iTunes report?

Long-standing oddity, not terribly urgent, but as I hit my phone memory limits recently, something I I want to better understand:

Storage looking on my iPhone under settings > general > use storage & iCloud, I see a number that does not match the free space listed in iTunes while my cable clocks-"space" available in the graphic bar at the bottom of the page under iPhone iTunes > summary is always different.

For example, at the present time this 32 GB iPhone 5 shows the settings > general > storage & use iCloud > available 2.5 GB

and iTunes iPhone 5 s > summary > 3.49 GB free

Which is more accurate, and why these numbers differ so constantly?

There are a number of reasons, including how each system filesystem view (s) - are addressed in these discussions

iTunes and iOS report storage differently - CSA

  • Why the iPhone 5 c suddenly unload its battery

    This has happened at least half a dozen times now. My phone is off, not in use, not invited, for hours and hours, having been charged or capacity load almost yesterday. It's on a Verizon network.

    I'll check, and the phone is dead, the battery completely although it has not been used. What happened today through multiple updates to iOS (currently 9.3.3. Although it has happened since at least 9.3.1). and it happens with this apparent random that it make much sense to say that it is a background process that is currently running (unless there is a process that runs at random times, maybe every few weeks or months).  I was wondering if anyone else has come across this, or that he knows what is happening. This is the kind of obnoxious to pick up sound * charged * phone and it is D.O.A.

    Since you indicate what happened through several updates, I suggest that you take the time to look in settings > farm and see what is using the highest percentage of your battery. It sounds as if something is stuck try to treat, or there is a corrupt file that is originally something be stuck trying to use data or the processor.

  • Why the parent class does not report data for child in LVOOP class?

    Attached is a practical program that I wrote to learn about the legacy with LVOOP.

    I have the impression of OOP is a Parent class describes the type of object.  Then the children inherent description of the parent.  The child may also have additional qualities, but it still contains the description of the parent.  If a child does not have a VI bearing the same name as the parent and the parent VI will be loaded and executed.

    My questions:

    (1) why does the Parent.lvclass:Read.vi not report 'Child' in the channel indicator when the child write VI has been sent?

    2) matches the data of the child, do not at all seen by the parent company even when it has the same definition (that's the String)?  I understand that the Parent do not know anything about the unique child elements, but I think we should know about the common themes which inherited the child.

    Here is my sample code:

    These are two different sets of data. The parent class has a data set containing the string, the class of the child also has a data set containing the string, but both of these channels are separated.

    This can be made apparent, by changing the names of the channels based on their respective categories:

    What you want is for your children, class VI write to access the data of the parent class. You can do this with a simple data VI member access in VI of the child:

  • Why the Microsoft Fingerprint Reader is reported as compatible in Windows 8 Upgrade Advisor when it is not compatible at all?

    I recently updated from Windows XP to Windows 8.

    I ran the Upgrade Advisor to check for any compatibility issues, at the time I had the Microsoft Fingerprint Reader plugged in and installed.

    The Adviser assured me it was compatible.

    I installed the upgrade and surprise, surprise... it does not work, there is no drivers for it, and the original drivers do not work as they are much too old to be signed.

    Now I could accept that he may have been a mistake, unless it's Microsoft peripheral brand... Surely they can get these right at least!

  • iTunes is updating the iPhone - with the exception of apps

    Running iOS 9.3.1 and 12.3.3.17 iTunes and a wired synchronization seems (on the surface) work very well.  I noticed recently that even if my phone syncs with iTunes without error, the apps on the iPhone to date never actually.

    1. iPhone says that I need 22 app updates updates.  In addition, I cannot sync wireless so I need to do a wired update anyway.
    2. Start iTunes - I can download all latest updates in iTunes
    3. Sync iPhone - all measures seem to be working correctly and synchronize changes to music without any problem.
    4. Look at iPhone - App Store icon always displays a red number 22 applications that need to update.

    At this point, the only way I can update the apps on the iPhone is via clicking on the App Store app and 'update all '.  Successfully it is updating applications cell / Wireless without any problem.  I don't know why the iPhone updates not when physically (not wireless) plugged in iTunes. He used to work - a few months ago, that it seemed to work very well.  Just noticed this.  The good news is that I can get the end apps iPhone update - I just can't understand why something that work isn't is no longer.  Any suggestions?

    When connected to iTunes look in the applications tab of the device. It is sync selected apps?
