Welcome to Android Central! How much is in Other? It might be the system. Show us a screenshot of the Settings>Storage menu: http://forums.androidcentral.com/am...ide-how-post-screenshots-android-central.html

Close, but not quite. Go to the main system Settings, then tap Storage.

Does anything else come up if you tap Used Space? Judging from the other screenshot, I assume most of it will be that Other category.

Have you installed any big games? Use the file manager app and look in the /Android/obb directory. Are there any huge files there for games or apps you previously uninstalled?

Yup, that's what it is. Google music. I signed up for the unlimited music and it will only save the music I download to the unit, not my SD card. The option to move the data to the SD card is "fuzzed out". Shoot.
