  • Trying to update phone and keeps saying not enough storage how do i fix it

    I have deleted almost every picture off my phone cause it kept telling me not enough storage. I am trying to update, but it won't let me . It keeps saying not enough storage.... How do I fix this cause it should have plenty now !

    Settings/General/About/Available will tell you how much free storage you have. From memory you need at least 1.4 GB or so to update to iOS 7 over WiFi (I strongly suggest you have more than that, 2-3 GB is safer for the iOS 7 upgrade).
    If you have problems freeing up enough space on your phone then update it via iTunes instead, that's both more likely to work without issues and doesn't require all that free space on the phone to start with.

  • I used to be able to have thousands of pictures on my phone and now after my upgrade it keeps saying "not enough storage" is there anything I can do? I don't want to buy more storage

    I used to be able to have thousands of pictures on my phone and now after my upgrade it keeps saying "not enough storage" is there anything I can do? I don't want to buy more storage
    It says I cloud total storage 5.0 GB available 5.0 GB so whats the problem?

    iCloud storage is for backups. It is not associated with space on your phone. You cannot buy more space for your phone. Check what you have on your phone and delete what you don't use or seldom use to get more space on your phone.

  • Why is my iphone 4 saying not enough storage available?

    Hello, when ios 7 came out I could not download it because I didn't have enough storage so I did not stress it. The next week I plugged my iphone in my laptop and it downloaded ios 7 and ever since then my iphone 4 will not let me take pictures, download apps, nothing and it keeps popping up not enough storage available, you can either buy more or delete some. So I deleted A LOT of my apps and pictures and contacts but still even with four apps on my phone it won't let me do anything. Does anyone know why? And I do not want to buy more storage because I am going to upgrade my phone this summer but still its very annoying, can anyone help me please? And thank you !!!

    That's iCloud storage that it's talking about
    Check Settings>iCloud>Storage & Backup.
    Odds are what you see here will show a very small amount as "Available."

  • My ipad has deleted hundreds of photos and now says it doesn't have enough memory to take any more photos.

    My ipad 2 has deleted hundreds of photos and now says there is not enough memory to take any more photos! Help!

    Have run a complete virus check / No problems
    Used MacKeeper to get rid of junk files.
    There is your problem.
    Why on Earth did you install MacKeeper??? Get rid of it and do NOT use zeobit's uninstaller. It will make things worse.
    Do NOT install anti-virus software on Macs.

    That is just one horror story about MacKeeper. There are many others right here on Apple Support. Search for "uninstall MacKeeper".

    Hi karlos16,
    For the error message you are seeing, I found this article:
    iCloud: Troubleshooting creating backups
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS3992
    "This iPhone cannot be backed up because there is not enough iCloud storage available."
    This message is displayed when there is not enough storage space available in your iCloud Storage to complete your backup. You can either reduce the amount of data you are backing up under Backup Options, or you can buy more storage.
    For the issue with the iPhone appearing to be unresponsive, I recommend this article for troubleshooting:

  • Every time I try to update the 4s or 4 it is saying not enough storage. I am really hating this phone now because I am not going to buy storage. We have 5 iPhones on our account and now because of iCloud it does this.

    your iCloud storage isnt part of your phone, that is a back up for your phone, you have to delete things on your phone, so I recommend backing up your photos to your computer or iCloud since im sure thats whats taking up all your storage, then delete the photos on your phone and then update your phone using iTunes on your computer.

  • I cannot remove the dialog box from my ipad. It says 'not enough storage' I click on settings and close, but still there. I need help. thx

    I cannot remove the dialog box from my ipad. it says 'not enough storage'. I click on settings and close but still there. How can i remove this message? Thnx

    Try this.
    Reboot the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider if it appears on the screen - let go of the buttons. Let the iPad start up.

  • My iPhone says "Not Enough Storage"

    My iPhone says "Not Enough Storage" but when i tap on "Close" or "Settings", nothing happens. It's as if I never tapped on it. The buttons work but the pop-up just won't go away. I already deleted all of my pictures and some apps but the pop-up still won't come off. I can't even unlock my iPhone because the pop-up is in the way.

    Do a reset
    Reset: Hold down the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears. Note: You will not lose any data

  • I have an iPad 2 and iPhone 5. I have 18.3GB of 25GB iCloud storage available but I'm unable to download anything as it says not enough storage!!

    Please help, but keep it simple.  I have an iPad 2 and iPhone 5. I've got 25GB storage on iCloud with 18.3GB available but when I'm trying to download anything, it's saying not enough storage available.  I thought everything I put on my iPad would be stored in the cloud but I'm obviously missing something. Any suggestions?

    The cloud is for storing your backups (which will then allow you to restore your content back on to a device), to download content on your iPad you need enough available space on your actual iPad : Settings > General > About > Available.
    If you aretrying to download an app then you generally need approximately twice its size to be able to download and install it.
