Can i upgrade icloud storage for secondary account?

My secondary account is used mostly for email.  I deleted a ton of them but somehow am still voer the 5GB limit.
I'm willing to pay the $100 upgrade to get rid of the hassle, but is theere a way to upgrade icloud storage for your secondary account?

You would probably have to temporarily make the secondary account the primary account to upgrade it.  To do this, go to System Preferences>Mail,Contacts,Calendars...delete the secondary account, then go to System Preferences>iCloud, sign out of your primary account and choose Delete at all of the prompts (your data will still be in iCloud), then sign back in with your secondary account ID and upgrade the storage.
After upgrading the secondary account storage, reverse the procedure to assign the primary and secondary accounts back the way they were.

  • Can I upgrade iCloud storage using iTunes cards for payment?

    I have chosen not to use my credit card in conjunction with my AppleID, so I purchase all of my apps and media using iTunes cards.  Can I pay for upgraded iCloud storage using iTunes credits?  I would prefer to pay one year at a time using those credits, but if it needs to be monthly, that would be fine as well.  I just want to use the iTunes cards instead of a credit card for the payment.

    Thank you.  So to clarify, if I put a credit card on file for this AppleID, but I have plenty of iTunes credit to cover the monthly cost, then the monthly fee will be pulled from iTunes credits instead of my credit card.  Is that correct? 
    It sounds like the credit card is required in order to provide a backup payment option if the iTunes credits are all used up.  Is that also correct?
    You're awesome!! Thanks for the help.

  • Why Apple store can't Upgrade the storage for Macbook Pro Retina after sale?

    Hello everyone
    I am disappointed from apple store .
    One month ago i bought the new MacBook Pro Retina with storage 256 GB and now i would like to upgrade the storage to 768 GB as mentioned in there website where you can configure the storage higher,but unfortunately i went to apple store to upgrade,but they refused and they said we only upgrade within the order in the beggining before you buy it !!!!!!!!
    even if i go to normal shop they will do the upgrade but i will lose my waranty .
    Is there any advice ?
    Thanks
    Khalid

    No one seems to be hearing what Big Q is saying.
    He can pair his iPhone to his Macbook, but cannot CONNECT. He's NOT asking for alternative solutions, like Wi Fi.
    I am able to both pair and connect my one one Macbook to my other one, but I can only pair but not connect my iPhone or iPad to either Macbook. So I have the same problem. But I can pair and connect my Macbooks to other Bluetooth devices, like my ancient Nokia cellfone, or my Bluetooth HP printer.
    It's irrelavent that I can instead use a direct USB cable or Wi Fi between my Macbooks and my iPhone/iPad - why can't I use Bluetooth? If Apple does not allow Bluetooth between it's Macbooks and other Mac devices, then why have Bluetooth at all? Does my iPhone have Bluetooth only so that I can pair and connect to my my non Apple mobile handsfree car kit, or communicate easily with the dreaded Apple enemy Samsung, or what?
    Make no mistake , I am a diehard Apple fan, but this Bluetooth non compatibility issue appears shortsighted and seemingly pointless. Why does Apple not just say why they created the non compatibility, or have a message on the Bluetooth setup programme which simply and clearly says "don't bother wasting hours of your time trying to pair and connect your iPhone to your Macbook, because we don't allow that anymore, reason being that............"?
    As a first time user of this Forum I am surprised at the intolerant and highhanded tone of some of the replies  to what is a legitimate question, that is obviously plagueing many, many other Apple users.

  • Can't buy iCloud storage for second time on same card (accidentally missed .99c payment). Payment information won't accept  my country:region and will  not let me hit complete. Please help!!

    Please help! I've cannot update/amend my payment info after accidently missing the payment for more icloud storage. I would like to purchase it again using the same card and it wont let me. Any help or suggestions greatly appreciated!

    Look, I understand I still need a card attached to the account. The problem is, it won't accept my card because I only have 87 cents in my bank account right now.
    If I had known there would be so much trouble with the iTunes card, I would have just put the cash in my bank account in the morning instead of buying an iTunes card (I didn't expect the banks to be open on Thanksgiving of course).
    Apple will only accept cards that have a balance. The balance is so small in my account that it won't accept it as a valid card.
    I'm going to have to contact Apple anyway to reset the security questions. That's obvious. Your answers were not exactly helpful. You didn't tell me anything I don't already know, but thanks for trying to be helpful.

  • Upgraded iCloud storage for second time to 1tb but photo library still saying not enough iCloud storage to upload photos, help?

    1Tb iCloud storage, 128gb iPad air 2, still saying not enough iCloud storage to upload photos

    Hey EmilyEliza,
    As you are clearly aware, it is important for you to have backups of your important data, including all of these photos you are currently keeping on your iPhone. While it is possible to use iTunes or iCloud to do backups of your iPhone, the problem becomes how to access those backups if you have deleted the photos from your iPhone. Once you have done the backup and then removed the photos from the iPhone, the only way to access the photos is by restoring the backups to the phone. See this article for information about backups made from the iPhone -
    Back up and restore your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch using iCloud or iTunes - Apple Support
    If you want to easily access the photos once they are off of the iPhone, another approach to this would be to import your photos from the iPhone into an application on your Mac, such as iPhoto. To learn how to do this, use the steps in this article -
    Import photos and videos from your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch to your Mac or Windows PC - Apple Support
    Once those photos are on your computer, it is still important to back up those photos to somewhere else, so you can be sure of their safety before removing them from the iPhone. Your Mac’s Time Machine application is one method of doing this -
    Mac Basics: Time Machine backs up your Mac - Apple Support
    Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
    Happy computing,

  • Can I use iCloud storage for iOS apps?

    Hello,
    I'm trying to work out if it's possible to use iCloud to save/load data across devices with iOS apps created using Air.
    I know there is a lot of talk about now meeting the Apple data storage guidelines eg http://www.saumitrabhave.com/2011/11/air-ios-solving-apps-must-follow-ios.html
    What I can't understand is if I actually want to use iCloud to save data a user has created in my app (ie condition 1 of the storage guidelines - user generated data, cannot be re-created by application).
    If I was to save this user data to the <Application>/Documents directory...
    a) would it be backed up by iCloud and meet Apples requirements?
    b) if my application was installed on another device is there any way, using Air/AS3, to know that a file has been updated and read the file?
    Please let me know if this doesn't make sense... still trying to get my head around how it all works.
    Thanks.

  • Purchase iCloud storage for other users

    Can I buy iCloud storage for other users?
    Thank you.

    To the best of my knowledge, purchased storage stays with Apple id it is purchased to. To the best of my knowledge, it is unlike itunes store, and is not obligated to comply with local laws/regulations for downloads.
    I wish sometimes that people like you could create tips on do's and don'ts internationally, since we are all a bit shortsighted when it comes to Non our country situation. Unfortunately that tip here will die in the dark.
    BTW, I think your switching store may backfire for you, but I am sure you were informed of that on the phone.
    Question:
    Is it possible to pay in EU for iCloud accounts valid in China (RMB) and in the US (USD)
    They do not care( they will charge in acceptable units and card will take care of exchange rate), as long as card is accepted by corresponding store ( it is if it is on your file, and if not on file -you will find out as soon as you try to put it on it )
    As in the end they will end up back in the EU.
    What happens if you extend the storage in 1 country and then move to another country with a different currency and extend it again?
    I think I already answered that one.

  • ICloud Storage for a one time fee

    Can i buy icloud storage for a one time fee instead of monthly or yearly?

    Only iCloud is integrated into iOS in such a way that backups can be made. However there are 3rd party cloud services that allow you to upload some data into them, as long as they have an App such as Dropbox. But all cloud services I know about charges you monthly/yearly. The actual storage and bandwidth is costly for the company hosting it so x amount of storage that's stable and secure for a one time fee, I got a hard time seeing such an service exist at all.

    Hey Hindfromlondon,
    Welcome to Apple Support Communities.  Since you are posting here, I take it you already have an Apple ID.  
    You can setup that Apple ID to work with iCloud.  See:
    Set up your Apple ID for iCloud and iTunes - Apple Support
    And you usually want to stick with one Apple ID as having multiples can cause confusion (especially with purchases).
    Frequently asked questions about Apple ID - Apple Support
    What is an Apple ID?
    An Apple ID is a user name you use for everything you do with Apple. Creating an account for an Apple service, such as the iTunes Store or the App Store, creates an Apple ID. Apple ID allows you to access other Apple services. You don't have to create a new account for each service—just use your Apple ID.
    For a complete list of all of the places you can use an Apple ID, see Where do I use an Apple ID.
    and further down:
    I have multiple Apple IDs. Is there a way for me to merge them into a single Apple ID?
    Apple IDs cannot be merged. You should use your preferred Apple ID from now on, but you can still access your purchased items such as music, movies, or software using your other Apple IDs. 
    If you are wondering how using multiple Apple IDs relate to iCloud, see Apple IDs and iCloud.

  • I'm trying to upgrade my iCloud storage for the new price.

    I'm trying to upgrade my iCloud storage for the new price, but it doesn't gives me the option of 20G for $0.99 a month.
    How can I get 20g for $0.99 a month?
    Thanks!

    Katherine,
    have you read the message in the panel? Something is wrong with your credit card. Perhaps you have to enter a new date of expiration.
    In the small print it says, there is still a purchase, that needs paying,"Ugly Heart" with an amount of R 9.99. And "We were unable to authorise your credit card for this purchase".  You will first have to update your Billing Information before you can proceed to make a new purchase for upgraded storage.  Click "Account Details" in the iCloud panel.
    -- Léonie
    If you cannot fix the account from the iCloud panel, open iTunes and sign into the "Store" menu, Then use the "Store > View account" item there to check for problems with your Billing Information.

  • When I try to upgrade icloud storage I get an "unknown error" message. I can't install the software upgrade or back up my phone. HELP!

    Need help with icloud storage

    Not sure if you are trying to upgrade iCloud storage to make more room for the upgrade, but that won't help you. If you do not have enough room on your device for the upgrade, then you have to delete some things off of your device. You can also try to do the upgrade via iTunes on the computer you sync with. A direct upgrade does not require as much memory as a Wifi upgrade.
    Upgrading iCloud storage only provides more storage for your backups and for your iCloud sync'd items like messages, contacts, etc.
    Until the iCloud Drive is fully functional, iCloud will not help you to increase the memory capacity of your device.
    And, right now, the iCloud servers may just be overloaded with activity.
    Cheers,

  • HT204406 I purchased the additional Icloud storage for my ipod touch.  Since it removes all my music from the touch and stores it in Icloud, I find that when I am not at my wifi location or another one,I can't access my music.Is there a solution for that?

    I purchasedhe additional Icloud storage for my ipod touch.  That removes all my music from the ipod and putsd it in Icloud.  I find that when I am away from my wifi connection, like when walking or working out, I can't access my music. Is there a solution for this?

    Download the music to your ipod when you are in a wi-fi area.
