Greyed out circle, but I have enough memory?
Usually the circle means I didn't have enough memory, so I just clear out stuff I don't want and it's fine. However, I have 5.81GB free (according to the little bar at the bottom, but it's lied to me before)... I'm trying to put on one song, but it won't let me. I'm preeettttyyyyyyy sure this song is not over 5GB. I was actually trying to put the whole album on, but that didn't work, so I tried just one song... still didn't work. I'm backing up my iPod now, thinking of wiping it and putting everything back on... but that's such a hassle. I'd really love for iTunes to just work instead of messing up every single time I try to do anything. D:
I haven't updated iTunes recently, could that effect it? Why does that effect it? I'll just roll on the floor and sing to myself if it keeps giving me trouble bleh.
iTunes eventually updated after I did it manually. Songs still not syncing, though. I've updated and reinstalled iTunes, restarted all the little mobile device support things, ran diagnostics, renamed the sync folder, moved stuff around, changed it to the recommended file type, let iTunes put it in its own little music folder. Done everything but restore my iPod, but that always takes forever and a day... and I'm paranoid of losing stuff. I don't have access to my old music files right now so I don't wanna risk it.

Macbook has Grey screen wont start- said " MAC OSX does not have enough memory "
My daughter was using the macbook, and a message came up saying something like MAC OSX does not have enough memory for start up applications, ...
and it was frozen ( wish I had written down what it said") In held the start button down for 10 seconds, and now it wont work properly.
All I get on start up is a grey screen. I have tried holding down shift key and rebooting, but nothing.
I tried resetting the Pram or whatever it is.
I cant try and start from the start up utility disc as there is already a disc in there and I cant get it out.
Have tried rebooting with mouse key pressed., have tried rebooting holding F12, rebooting holding command O and P , have tried pushing the ejectb button when rebooting. But nada.

Does it boot into any of these modes?
Target mode...

Does it boot to Single User Mode, CMD+s keys at bootup, if so try...
/sbin/fsck -fy
Repeat until it shows no errors fixed.
(Space between fsck AND -fy important).
Resolve startup issues and perform disk maintenance with Disk Utility and fsck...

Freeing Up Space on The Hard Drive
1. See Lion/Mountain Lion/Mavericks' Storage Display.
2. You can remove data from your Home folder except for the /Home/Library/ folder.
3. Visit The XLab FAQs and read the FAQ on freeing up space on your hard drive.
4. Also see Freeing space on your Mac OS X startup disk.
5. See Where did my Disk Space go?.
6. See The Storage Display.
You must Empty the Trash in order to recover the space they occupied on the hard drive.
You should consider replacing the drive with a larger one. Check out OWC for drives, tutorials, and toolkits.
Try using OmniDiskSweeper 1.8 or GrandPerspective to search your drive for large files and where they are located.
You will need a minimum of 10-12 GBs of free space to install Yosemite, however, that is a bare minimum and should be at least twice that amount. -
Hi,
Im trying to download a movie from itunes to my ipad 2 but it says i dont have enough memory. I have 13G of space on icloud but cant figure out how to down load it to icloud. Can anyone advise please.Hi back,
Icloud cannot be used to increase internal memory of ipads, otherwise nobody would buy more expensive 32, 64, 128 gigabyte versions. Hype with "movies in the cloud" is more of itunes store, keeping movies available for you in order to download on any device. That does not go against your storage in the cloud, though.
So if you go to your computer and you purchased movie ( not rented ) you can download and watch.
There is something else to pay attention to, your ipad (if I am not mistaken) is not capable to run HD movies, make sure you do buy Standard Definition, and they will take less space on ipad. -
i am trying to upgrade to yosemite (for imac) from version 10.6.8 but even though i have 70gb available on my hard drive it wont let me upgrade because it says i dont have enough memory!! what can i do??
Install more RAM in the computer; the Mac needs to have at least 2GB of RAM and should have 4GB or more first.

I have an ipod touch but i don't have enough memory and 0I get an upgrade soon for my phone and i want the iphone but the thing is, can i have an ipod touch and an iphone on the same itunes account like can i use my money on my ipod account for my iphone
Your iPhone and iPod can share the same iTunes account. Apps can be freely shared and used by one or both devices. You can't use money in your iTunes account to pay for your phone, but purchased apps can be used by both the iPod and iPhone.

I have rented a movie on the iPad but I don't have enough memory for it to download - so I wanted to make it available on my Apple TV - looking at the FAQ it doesn't look like I am allowed to do this! Why not - I've purchased/rented this movie I should be able to watch on any device??! Can I get a refund for something I can't watch??
As it says on the page that you posted from :
If you download a rented movie on your iPhone 4 or later, iPad, iPod touch (4th generation or later), or Apple TV: It is not transferable to any other device or computer.
Why it's like that I don't think that Apple have said (these are user-to-user forums). If you haven't downloaded it on your iPad then have you checked to see if you can download it on your computer's iTunes (Store > Check For Available Downloads menu option) or Apple TV ?
If it doesn't show on either of them then you can try contacting iTunes Support and see if they will let you download it on a different computer/device or refund or credit you : http://reportaproblem.apple.com
If the 'report a problem' link doesn't work then you can try contacting iTunes Support via this page : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/ - click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page -

Hi, im not able to backup all ma contact to my icloud using my iphone 3gs. only 290 out of 600 contact gets backup in icloud, though i hav enough memory. How to fix it ??
I have had similar issues backing up to iCloud. Thy only thing I have found to work every time is backing up to iTunes and then doing a restore to my new device. That includes iPhone 6.

When I go on to the Simpsons tapped out game I try to purchase so in app content and every time I try it says insufficient funds but I have enough money in my I tunes account to purchase it. Why is this happening?
How much is the item that you are trying to buy and how much do you have on your account ? If you are in the US then you need to add on your state's sales tax to the listed price - does that take it over your balance ?

I'm trying to update my IPAD 2 to iOS 7.1.2 but don't have enough memory to do so. In I-Tunes I'm told to change my media sync options to gain more memory, but I don't know how. Can you help?
Turn off the check mark to sync your music and also the check mark for the video. Sync the device. This will remove the items from you iPad but still keep them on your computer. Install IOS 7.1.2. Then turn on the check marks for your music and videos and resync the device.

Trying to update iPhone but my computer doesn't have enough memory and I don't want to loose media.
Trying to update iPhone but my computer doesn't have enough memory for backup. It says I will loose all media off phone if I proceed. What do I do?
I think you misunderstand... iCloud backups are stored in the cloud and not on the PC. So, if you do an iCloud backup, it won't take up room on the PC.
But, if you want to transfer the iTunes purchases over, set up Home Sharing. Also, see this link. -
My iPad says when i try to download a movie that i don't have enough memory, but when I check I have plenty for the movie and more. What can I do? Also, I can't completely sync to iTunes, when i try it waits at waiting for items to copy forever.
Delete some stuff to make room on the device.
iCloud is not local storage and has nothing to do with your situation. -
I am trying to download an app that needs 501 MB and my iPod has over 1 GB, but the App Store says that I do not have enough memory left.
Do you have a question?
That sounds right.
Most apps require more than double the size of the app available in order for installation.
Make more room. -
I got the message I needed more storage. I purchased it but I still keep getting the message whenever I try to download an application that I don't have enough memory . Am I missing something?
You cannot use iCloud Storage to suppliment your iPad. It doesn't work that way.
