Ipad showing wrong storage amount

Ipad2 showed I have under 1 gb space. Then I deleted two shows, each at 1.2 gb. But, my usage still shows about 1 gb of space, which is incorrect. How can I fix thestorage amount so it reads correctly..

iPad 2, iOS 5.0.1

Try restarting or resetting the iPad. Many times a restart will fix that incorrect storage reading.


Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button.


Reset the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons.
