Q: iPhone 6 connected to iTunes 12 - 30GB of "other"?
Hi experts...
I have a 128GB iPhone 6. I've noticed when I connect it to iTunes and look at the Summary information for the device, the colored status bar at the bottom shows me the expected amount of music, apps and videos. There's a part that has me stymied, though. It shows 30GB of "other." That's a huge amount of "other," and I don't really have any idea what "other" consists of. Any way to find out and to maybe clear some of it up so I have more space?

Texas Mac Man post (2/10/2012) on "Other" data on iOS device -
- "If it is much more than a gb or so, then it indicates corrupt files. A restore should resolve." "If restoring using your backup didn't work, you'll have to save as much of your data as you can (import your photos to your computer, sync your contacts and other data with iCloud, email things like Notes and Voice Memos to yourself, sync with iTunes to transfer all your purchases, etc.) and then restore it as new without using your backup." -
