Well, it's trying to install *something* that is large, maybe music...I also suspect that stuff labelled as 'other' is actually legitimate content sometime.

Try turning off photostream on the phone? and restarting?

It's just a case of temporarily moving stuff off I'm afraid... (or stopping it trying to put things on)

Thanks Jason, I delete all photos from my phone when it syncs with iPhoto, I have photo stream but only 400 in it. Last month before I upgraded I synced to add some music and only had 1gb "other"

Hi, I upgraded today to 8.02 and to 8 a week ago, today I've tried to sync my phone to my Mbp so I can have the 50 new tunes I purchased through beatport on my phone. It can't sync because it say I need another 13gb of space. The "other" data is taking up 17gb! Does anyone know what might cause that and how I might remedy it please?

this 'other' stuff is a pain. Two things that might be relevant:

1) In my experience they are photos. Remove all photos, do the install, put them back. Ditto for videos. 2) Even when you delete apps, stuff gets left behind (as something like iExplorer will show you). Try deleting apps then putting them back - hey presto, it has some of the data you had before (sometimes). This means that over time, we're all going to have to do clean installs every now and then to clear out the debris.
