I bought more storage for my iphone, now icloud says im running out of space  Are they 2 different issues?

I bought more storage for my iphone, i am now getting a message that my cloud storage is almost full.. help

You have differnciate between your iCloud storage for backups including...
Photos and videos in the Camera Roll
Device settings (for example: Phone Favorites, Wallpaper, and Mail, Contacts, Calendar accounts)
App data
Home screen and app organization
Messages (iMessage, SMS, and MMS)
Ringtones
Visual Voicemails
documents (like pages, numbers or keynote files)
and your local device storage for apps, music files, tv shows, photos  and other media types.
Check your iCloud storage: "Settings > iCloud > Storage & Backups > Manage Storage" to see what you have currently stored on iCloud.
Check your device storage: "Settings > General > About > Available" to see if you still have capacity to store install more apps etc. on your device.

    The iCloud storage is meant for your backup, you do not get more space on iPhone.
    You can by connecting to computer iTunes for update then you will not have space problem

  • TS4009 I have purchase more storage for my I pad 3. Yet is telling no space for recording

    I have purchase more storage from I cloud and I want to known why my I pad 3 is not recording and is complaining of know space

    You can't purchase more space for your iPad.
    What you have done is purchased online storage, this doesn't mean you can fit more on your iPad.

  • I just bought 15 GB of storage on my iPhone 4. It says I have 11.5 GB left. I tried to download pandora on the app store. And it said I didn't have enough storage. I just bought more storage. I only have 6 apps on my phone because of storage.

    I am very upset about this. I have spent forever trying to figure this out. I can't even take anymore pictures.

    You didn't buy more storage for your iPhone.  You bought more iCloud backup storage.
    Delete some content from your device (such as photos or videos) to make room.

  • I rented a movie from iTunes and it is completely blurry? and says it runs out in 48 hours when i only bought it 2 days ago?

    I rented a movie 2 days ago off itunes. When i try to play it now, it says it runs out in 47 hours and is so blurry that i cannot make out the movie. Please help, this is a brand new laptop.

    Once you start to play a rental you have a finite amount of time - in some cases it is 24 hours and in others I believe 48 hours. You can play as many times as you like during the period.
    You have up to 30 days to start to watch the rental but one you start you have 24/48 hours to watch the rental.
    Check that your display setting are correct in System prefs.
    If you contiue to have poor quality video then conntat iTunes Cutomer Care via the links on this page and explain the problem - http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/

  • I've bought more gb for iphone 4, how do I get to use it. It says its in icloud

    II've bought more gb to download a film but it says it in iCloud. How do I get to use it??

    Correct you can't buy more KB for the iphone, what you bought was for icloud backup.
    If you want to download the film, you will have to delete some apps, pics, videos off your phone.
    You bought more memory for icloud not the phone itself.

  • My ipad has never been backed up I bought more storage and it still won't back up help please

    I have had my ipad for 2 years and it won't back up to iCloud I have tried on the computer as well and bought more storage but it just says backup incomplete any ideas
    Thanks

    A couple of things you can try. Firstly a reset. With iPad turned on, hold down both the Sleep & Home buttons until the Apple logo is displayed. Once booted up connect to a power source, and to your router via Wi-Fi, go to Settings>iCloud>Storage & Backup>Back Up Now
    If the above doesn't work try 'logging out' of iCloud, go to Settings>iCloud>Delete Account then go back in to Settings>iCloud> and enter your Apple ID and Password.
    Good luck.
    Regards,

  • I just bought more storage and it is still showing i don't have enough storage? When does the storage plan kick in?

    I just bought more storage and it is still showing I don't have enough storage. When does it actually kick in? I need to download an app and it's saying I don't have enough space??? thanks for the help

    What sort of "storage" did you buy? If you are referring to iCloud storage, that does not change the amount of storage on your iPhone. You will have to delete things from your iPhone to be able to add more apps. If you want to have music in the cloud rather than on your iPhone, you need to subscribe to iTunes Match, after which you will be able to stream music rather than keeping it on your iPhone, though of course you'll need an internet connection to do so and can burn through your cell service data allowance rather quickly if you play a lot of music and don't have WiFi available.
    Regards.

  • TS4009 i bought more storage from iclouds and it is not going to the storage please help me!!!

    i bought more storage from iclouds and its not showing that i have more storage what do i do????

    What do you mean by "its not showing that i have more storage"?
    The storage you but on iCloud should show on iCloud and not on your device.
    There is no way to increase the amount of storage on an iPhone short of selling the old one and buying a new one with more storage.

  • HT4623 I've purchased more storage for my mini iPad however I still can not download iOS 7?

    I've purchased more storage for my mini iPad however I still can not download iOS 7?

    If you mean you purchased more iCloud storage, that doesn't expand the amount of storage on your iPhone. iCloud storage only gives you more room for backups, documents, photo sharing, etc. You will still need to remove things from your iPad to give you enough room for the update. You'll need less room if you update via iTunes on your computer than if you update directly on the iPad.
    BTW, you posted in the iPod touch forum. For many issues the answers will be the same, but it's usually best to post in the correct forum for your product so that there is no misunderstanding.
    Regards.

  • My ipad2 and iphone4s won't back up.  I even bought more storage on icloud?

    My ipad2 and iphone4s won't back up.  I have even bought more storage?  Not sure what to do next?

    If you no longer need the backups, you can delete them by going to Settings>iCloud>Storage & Backup>Manage Storage, tap the name of device you want to delete the backup for (under Backups at the top), then tap Delete Backup.  This will permanently delete it from your account, freeing up the storage it occupies.

  • HT4623 need more storage for update

    Best things to delete for more storage for update?

    Any movies or TV shows transferred from your iTunes library take up quite a bit of storage space and can be re-transferred after the update has been installed. If your iPhone's Camera Roll includes a lot of photos/videos, import those with your computer followed by deleting from the Camera Roll after the import process is complete. The imported photos/videos can be transferred back to your iPhone via the iTunes sync process after the update has been installed.
    Delete apps rarely if ever used which can be reinstalled after the update has been installed.
