iTunes HELP

So when I'm on iTunes when my iPod is plugged in and I'm able to see how much space I have on my iPod it says that 1.38GB is used as "Other" only I don't know what else I have other than music on there.
Is there anyway to find out what the "other" stuff is?
Could it be for the album covers (it's an iPod3rdgen)? But I don't think they would take up that much room..

wow... 1.38GB for "Other"? That's a bit much. At most, album covers would take up maybe 150MB... but not 1.38GB.

Do you have "Disk Mode" enabled on your ipod? When you have iTunes loaded with you iPod plugged in, there should be a option that says "enable disk mode" (or something like that) with a checkbox next to it. If you select that, you can open up your file explorer and maybe see what's on your iPod other than your music.

(Note: if you do do this, all the song files on you iPod with show up with names like "3hj2o3hhnk23h1k2h3k2134.mp3" and not the file names you gave them.)

Oohhhh. I just figured it out. A while ago my brother downloaded 2 movies and he wanted to give them to me, so we put them on my iPod to transfer to my laptop. I never rememebered to take them off. Silly me.

^I had checked that. I went through my podcasts, audiobooks, pictures, etc. I don't think the movie even showed up under the movie section of iTunes, just in the folder.
Which reminds me, I still have to watch that movie.
