Clean up Deleted Projects on IPad

Post by LilacsOnFire »

Is there a way to free up storage on an IPad without removing and re-installing Multitrak DAW?

Even after deleting project files, they still seem to be using up available memory in my IPad. I can see through ITunes File Sharing section that I have 10 Gig of active projects stored in Multitrak DAW. But, when I look under storage in the General Settings on my IPad, Multitrack DAW is using 40 Gig. I believe the discrepancy reflects the inactive projects which have been deleted since the last time I re-installed Multitrak DAW.

How are you deleting the projects, through iTunes File Sharing? If that's the case, please run MultiTrack at least once and go back to the song listing screen (the one with all the song icons). To avoid this problem in the future, you could use MultiTrack to delete the unused projects (touch-hold the song icon and tap the X).

I deleted the song files from within Multitrack DAW by tap hold and then tapping the x. There is only 10 gig of songs listed, and the Itunes list is identical to the list of songs in Multitrak DAW. But, still using 40 gig of memory.

I may be wrong, but I thought the memory usage showed the total storage space used by the projects AND the app, so the 40 MB would be 30 for MT Daw and 10 for your projects. Again, I don't really know because I've never checked an app right after install before creating any projects, but that would be my guess.

Sorry. I meant Gigs, not Megs, in my previous post
