  • Limited storage in iPhone so i bought 20g iCloud. how can i use this iCloud storage in my device to store music and photos?

    I have a limited storage in iPhone so i bought 20g iCloud. how can i use this iCloud storage in my device to store music and photos?

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    You could sign up for iTunes match and use iCloud photo library with optimisation enabled. The later will keep optimised photos on your device and iTunes match will let you access your whole collection and make room for newer content by removing older unplayed items.

  • How can I find my iCloud storage breakdown?

    I am over my storage limit and don't want to buy more storage. I used to have no problems before videos on photo stream skyrocketed my data. I've deleted all videos and delete my iCloud data.  So now I have approx 500MB of photos and nothing else of size but my iCloud acct mgr says I need nearly 6GB of space. What besides video could need that much data?
    ICloud seems like a an intentionally designed trouble spot so clients almost always need to buy extra storage.

  • How can I cancel my iCloud Storage plan?

    When I upgraded my iPhone 4 to iOS 5 and it turned into a "brick" I was forced to use iCloud to backup and restore and it kept complaining that I had 5.9 gb which is over the 5.0Gb free storage provided, so I purchased an upgrade - in a dazed and confused state as my iPhone was a "brick" I must have done this twice to recover my iPhone.
    Result is that I now have an additional 20Gb Storage Plan.
    Nice email saying that I can cancel it within 15 days, but not where or how to do this. I spoke to Apple iPhone support who said its another division, try iTunes support website and I should be able to email and cancel - but not seen any email address.
    Tried iCloud Express Lane but they want £20 for an incident ticket which is about what I paid for the 20gb Storage Plan!
    Problem overall is that I use an iMac (PPC not Intel) on Mac OS 10.5.8 and although I have upgraded to iTunes 10.5, I am finding that WiFi sync or iCloud do not work unless you are on Mac OS 10.6 (needs Intel) or greater.
    So I want to cancel my iCloud storage plan. Please can someone help me.

    Do any of the following:
    On your iOS device’s Home screen:
    Tap Settings > iCloud > Storage & Backup > Buy More Storage.
    Tap Downgrade Options, then tap to put a checkmark beside your current plan.
    To confirm you want to set up iCloud to renew your current storage plan when the next payment is due, tap Confirm.
    On your Mac:
    Choose Apple Menu > System Preferences, then click iCloud.
    Click Manage, then click Buy More Storage.
    Click Downgrade Options, and enter your Apple ID password.
    Click to select your current plan (so that a checkmark appears), and then click Done.
    On your Windows computer:
    Choose Start Menu > Control Panel > “Network and Internet,” then click iCloud.
    Click Manage, then click Buy More Storage.
    Click Downgrade Options, and enter your Apple ID password.
    Click to select your current plan (so that a checkmark appears), and then click Done.

  • How can I cancel my iCloud Storage Upgrade?

    I enthusiastically upgarded my storage to 100GB the other day, thinking that iCloud would suit my needs.  However, I am on Google Apps for my business and it seems that iCloud will not sync, and I am not willing to switch to all iCloud at this time.
    Is there any way that I can cancel my upgrade and get a refund?
    Thanks,
    Andy

    I wish I could help but I am in the same boat.  I spent $100 and not able to use it.  I followed up on everything I could find on line but did not get my money back yet.  Have decided to follow up for the sake of the general public and to get Steve Jobs good name back for the company I loved so much under his leadership.  Next up, is that I go to the the Genius Bar and request the right help.  Good luck to all of us.

  • "Other" storage 261GB, how can I reduce this?

    I have a MacBook Pro early 2008 2.4GHz with 4GB memory and a 500GB hard drive, running Mountain lion 10.8.
    When I entered the "Storage" section in "About This Mac", I found out that 261GB are in some yellow bar called "Other", and another 85GB are in the "Backups" category. This is srtrange because I don't have any backups on my computer, and I've never backed up my computer using time machine or any other software.
    44GB are movies, apps, photos, etc...
    I ran the OmniDiskSweeper and it only found 137GB in my hard drive. That means it didn't find 255GB of storage.
    How can I reduce this "Other" storage? and where can I find those backups?
    Thank you,
    YanivWolf.

    First, empty the Trash if you haven't already done so. Use a tool such as OmniDiskSweeper to explore your volume and find out what's taking up the space. Proceed further only if the problem hasn't been solved. ODS can't see the whole filesystem when you run it just by double-clicking; it only sees files that you have permission to read. To really see everything, you have to run it as root. Back up all data now. Launch the Terminal application in any of the following ways: ☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.) ☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens. ☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Terminal in the icon grid. After installing ODS in the Applications folder, drag or copy — do not type — the following line into the Terminal window, then press return:sudo /Applications/OmniDiskSweeper.app/Contents/MacOS/OmniDiskSweeper
    You'll be prompted for your login password, which won't be displayed when you type it. You may get a one-time warning not to screw up.
    I don't recommend that you make a habit of this. Don't delete anything while running ODS as root. When you're done with it, quit it and also quit Terminal.

    You got it with that same apple id thing. You can use different apple id's, but then they will not sync. Apple does allow as many free apple id's as you want, but they are in the business to make money.

  • TS3992 on iPad: How can I delete my Mail storage from my iCloud backup?

    on iPad: How can I delete my Mail storage from my iCloud backup?

    Did anyone ever provide a resolution, because I am having the same problem.
    My iCloud backup said yesterday that over 500 MB was being used by the Mail portion of the backup. So I went into iCloud.com, deleted all of the mail in my Sent Mail folder, then emptied the trash entirely. When I did that, it got worse; it said that 1.2 GB of the iCloud backup was taken up by the Mail backup. That doesn't make any sense. That is actually the opposite of what was supposed to happen.
    Today, it is back to saying that Mail takes up 609.4 MB of space in the backup, but there is next-to-nothing in any of my iCloud email folders. What is going on?
    Any suggestions you could provide would be greatly appreciated.
