iPhone 4 2.2 Gigs in "other"

Question

iPhone 4 2.2 Gigs in "other"

Now I gotta be honest I'm not sure when it made the jump to 2.2 gigs. But I noticed it today and I couldn't figure out how to find out what "other" is?

Everything else, Music, Video, Apps etc. are spot on.

So I have no idea what 2.2 Gigs of other might be. How can I find out what it is and deleted unneeded data?

Dell Inspiron, Windows 7

A large "other" generally indicates a corrupt file.

A restore should resolve.

Yep that fixed it.

Too bad it takes forever to do.... I really wish Apple would treat the Internal Memory more like Memory and allow us to open it up like a folder and look at what this junk is.

Oh well. Thanks for the fix.
