How do I empty trash after deleting music, apps and photos from my iPhone to make more room for upgrading to iOS 8.1?

How do I empty trash after deleting music, apps and photos from my iPhone to make more room for upgrading to iOS 8.1?  It says I don't have enough room to upgrade so I have deleted some of everything but do not see an improvement in my storage space. Help?

No need to empty anything.
You can update by connecting your phone to iTunes on your computer. This way you bypass the space limitations.
Good Luck

    Help

    In iPhoto, with the video selected, go to the iPhoto File menu and use the Export command. I use this for photos and don't have any experience with videos but seem to recall that you may have to set the "Kind" in the Export dialog to "Original" -- not sure of that part so you may need to experiment with "Kind."

    I don't see an issue, but if you mean why didn't you get most of your memory back you need to see what else is using storage. Go to Settings/General/Usage. Wait a bit for it to calculate storage allocation, then when it finishes you can see how much storage each app uses.

    Sounds like a verification issue on whatever marketplace you bought PS Touch from. Did you try contacting Google or Apple to see what they say?

  • I just bought an ipad. How do I get all the apps, music and photos from my iphone to my ipad?

    I just purchased an iPad 2. I currently have an iPhone 4 (not 4s). I was told that I could get all the apps, music and photos from my iphone onto my ipad. I tried backing up my phone and restoring my ipad from my phone. Didn't work. It setup successfully but nothing transfered over. iCloud only gave me my contacts and calendar. HELP!

  • How do I transfer music and photos from my iPhone 4s to my iPad

    HHow do I transfer music and photos from my iPhone 4s to my ipad

    You cannot directly transfer anything from an iPhone to an iPad. If your iPad is signed onto the same Apple ID as your iPhone in Settings>iTunes & App Store, then it has access to the same Music library as your phone. Click on the More tab in the iTunes App on your iPad, and then on Purchased, Not on this iPad to see all of the music available to download to the iPad. You can also set the "Automatic Downloads" option to ON in Settings>iTunes & App Store and going forward, any music you purchase on the iPhone or via iTunes on a computer will automatically download to your iPad. Set the same setting on the iPhone to have it do the same.
    As for photos. If both the iPhone and iPad are signed onto the same iCloud ID in Settings>iCloud, then turn on Photo Stream on both the iPad and iPhone to share Photo Stream photos between the two devices. Photos on your Camera Roll that are no longer on Photo Stream, or photos in other Photo Albums would have to be sync'd to the iPad via iTunes on the computer you sync with (assuming you have imported your photos to that computer).

  • My iphone storage is full due to my large photo library. As I want to go on taking more photos, if I back up my phone to icloud, can I then delete all my photos from my iphone to make room for new photos?

    My iphone storage is full due to my large photo library. As I want to go on taking more photos, if I back up my phone to icloud, can I then delete all my photos from my iphone to make room for new photos? Or will the next time I back up lose all those previously backed up as it is a 'new' set of data?
    I just want to find the easiest and safest way of not losing all my photos while being able to take more than my iPhones storage worth as it is already full - can someone help me please? I thought icloud was the solution to not uploading my photos to the mac but I'm not sure if the way it's going is working and don't want to delete photos or lose my phone and then find out what I'm doing isn't actually storing my photos permanently. Thanks

    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,

  • How do I transfer my contacts and photos from my iPhone to my iPad?

    How do I transfer my contacts and photos from my iPhone to my iPad?

    Contacts are designed to be synced with a supported address book application on your computer, which is selected under the Info tab for your iPhone sync preferences with iTunes. Select the same under the Info tab for your iPad sync preferences with iTunes followed by a sync and the contacts in the supported address book application on your computer which are also available on your iPhone will be transferred to your iPad.
    Photos in your iPhone's Camera Roll can and should be imported by your computer as with any other digital camera. After the photos are imported by your computer and placed in a designated folder or album on your computer, select this album or folder under the Photos tab for your iPad sync preferences with iTunes along with any other photos on your computer that you want transferred to your iPad followed by a sync.

  • How do I transfer contacts and photos from my IPhone 5 (version 7.1.2) to my computer (Windows 8.1)?

    How do I transfer, move, back up, upload or whatever the correct terminology is, my contacts and photos from my IPhone 5 to my Windows computer?

    You can transfer photos in several different ways:
    via USB cord: iOS: Import personal photos and videos from iOS devices to your computer
    via Photo Stream: iCloud: My Photo Stream FAQ
    via a number of 3rd party apps such as http://www.photosync-app.com
    You can transfer contacts via:
    iCloud: https://www.apple.com/icloud/features/
    iTunes sync: iTunes 11 for Windows: Sync contacts, calendars, and other info with iPod, iPhone, or iPad
    and there may also be 3rd party apps.
    Note that you can also backup to iCloud or to a computer, but that is only designed to be used for a restore back to the phone and you won't see usable photos or contacts on the computer.

    Are these purchased songs from iTunes?  If so they do not count against your cloud storage.
