How much does 5GB icloud hold?

I keep getting alerts that my iCloud is almost at capacity.  5GB sounds like so much storage.  I can't believe that a normal person such as myself would even get close to using it all.  I have no documents, only 800 pictures and perhaps the same amount of music in the cloud.  I have turned off all apps.  Does anyone have any suggestions?

You might check Settings>iCloud>Storage & Backup>Manage Storage to see what's using all the storage.  If the items listed there don't account for it, connect your phone to your computer and check the capacity bar in iTunes to see how large the "Other" (yellow) segment is.  If it's unusually large (multiple GBs), you probably need to restore your phone to reduce it.

  • My harddrive failed, how much does Apple charge to replace it?

    Hi,
    My hard drive failed today:( Already called AppleCare and he diagnosed the problem but I don't have AppleCare so I'll have to pay for it.
    How much does it cost to have Apple replace it? It's a 320GB HD on my 13" MacBook Pro.

    I was quoted $600 a few years ago to replace a 350GB with a 500GB and it was a poor Seagate issue at 5,400 RPM.
    So it did it myself for $300 and got a higher quality 500GB Hitachi drive (before WD bought them) at 7,200 RPM, so my old machine is still fast.
    I recommend a 7,200 RPM 500 or 750GB drive, even a 1TB will future proof you well. The added speed gives added performance for a slight drop in battery life perhaps.
    A SSD in 480GB size is about $1200-$1500 or so, even $1800 for the new screamers, that's just for the drive, not including Apple's mark up.. Not worth it IMO.
    Throw some more RAM in it while you got the opportunity I think you machine can handle 8GB , use the free MacTracker to find out,, you might be able to stick more in there than Apple says.
    Apple quoted me $435 plus tax to upgrade my 4GB to 8GB,( it's only $200 something if you do it with a new machine as they keep the new 4GB RAM.) The same 8GB RAM can be had at Crucial.com for $70.
    So it certainly pays to do it yourself, Apple clearly doesn't want your business.
    Doing it yourself doesn't void your AppleCare or warranty as long as you don't break anything.
    You have 10.7, so your machine had 10.6 before, you need to format the drive HFS+ with a GUID then install 10.6, then to 10.6.8, then AppStore option click on Purchases and install Lion again, then all your third party programs from fresh sources and files manually from backup. (no migration assistant if you can help it) In that order for best performance.
    If you have a factory Lion Mac or not 10.6 disks, then you need a copy of yours or anothers Recovery Partition using this on 1GB+ USB formatted GUID OS X extended journaled, hold option boot from it to install Lion. You will need your Apple ID to download Lion I think.

  • How much does Apple charge to have a laptop cleaned from spilled soda?

    So my GF spilled soda on her laptop about a year ago and was wondering how much does apple normally charge to have a Macbook cleaned? She has a late 2011 13" Macbook Pro. The soda residue has been in the laptop for a little over a year, but I'm guessing it's good that the Macbook still functions (I only turn it on for no more than a minute). It also still holds a charge and takes a charge as well.

    Apple will not clean it, the fact that it still works is unusual, I would count my blessings and leave it alone, The exterior may be cleaned with a soft, damp (not wet) cloth

  • HT4060 How much does it cost to replace an iPad 2 battery?

    My iPad 2 is almost three years old and won't recharge. How much does it cost to replace the battery? I have data in my apps and games that I would like to keep. If I buy a new iPad coming soon, will I lose all of my in-apps and in-game data? Is it cost effective to replace the battery? Looking for advice. Thanks.

    In the U.S. ....

    Your one-year warranty includes replacement coverage for a defective battery. You can extend your coverage to two years from the date of your iPad purchase with the AppleCare Protection Plan for iPad. During the plan’s coverage period, Apple will replace the battery if it drops below 50% of its original capacity. If it is out of warranty, Apple offers abattery replacement for $99, plus $6.95 shipping, subject to local tax. Apple disposes of your battery in an environmentally friendly manner.
    You have to be the judge of whether it is cost effective to you. You can backup all of your app data with iTunes or iCloud and restore from the backup if you get a new iPad - and then all of your data and game saves should be restored. You should not lose your in-app purchases either as they are stored in the backup.
    If you have had an iPad for almost 3 years, I would hope that you have been backing up all along. If you sync with iTunes all of you apps and other media are stored in there, and iTunes has been backing up your iPad when you sync. Paid content can be downloaded again for free (in most cases) as long as you use the same Apple ID that you bought it with.

    Do you have the old for new service? Can I upgrade my iPhone 5s to the new iPhone 6 and how much does it cost?

    Actually, in the US at least the website states
    You can recycle your iPhone at the Apple Retail Store and get immediate credit for its value toward the purchase of a new one.**

    My hard drive continually has the floating beach ball and will take massive time to fulfill a request. And then will not boot up...so then I have to do a restore and rebuild hard drive from a past saved time machine version. Works for a little bit...then the floating beachball comes more and more...until it will not boot up again. So then I restore from a previous time machine saved version....and again it works for a day or so ... until it happens again. Now it's happening faster and faster...so I think my hard drive is dying.

  • How much does boot camp take speed from a macbook bro 15

    Iam a architecture student and i need to buy a macbook for designing, And some of the program's doesnt work on OS-X such as Revit unfortunately , And i need to know if it does effect to much on the speed, please if anybody knows help me!!!. If its possible how much does it take, 50% 30% of the general speed.

    When using Boot Camp, only one OS is running at a time. That OS has sole access to the computer's hardware; it won't affect Mac OS X's performance when running it.

  • How much does Premiere Pro and After Effects rely on the hard drive it's installed on?

    This may be a really dumb question, but how much does Premiere Pro and After Effects rely on the hard drive it's installed on if all your video files, assets, disk cache, etc are on different drives than the one the program itself is installed on?
    The reason I am asking is that I currently have a "relatively" slow Sata II SSD for my C drive that has just my OS (windows 7 64bit) and programs (adobe editing programs, no games) installed on it and nothing else. All of the files used in my projects are saved on either a very fast Sata III SSD or a slower HDD depending on what the files are. For example, disk cache on the Sata III, stills on the HDD.
    Being cyber monday I have the opportunity to buy another very fast Sata III SSD to replace my current Sata II SSD C Drive (just OS and programs). Both synthetic and real world benchmarks show a near double in performance. I just want to know if anyone thinks the upgrade is even worth it because for all I know there won't be any increase in performance since no videos, still, cach, etc will be stored on the C Drive.
    The alternative is to get a second monitor because I currently only use one 21" monitor.
    I suppose another alternative would be to not buy anything on the cyber monday deals and just save money for something else.
    Any advice or input would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

    Thanks Alex! I think you are right about not being able to notice the difference between the SSDs. I ended up finding a deal to get about $80 off a great monitor that I've been looking at for a while and decided to pull the trigger on it. I thought about it and realized that there have already been a bunch of times where I want to watch a tutorial on youtube and follow allong in AE or PrePro, but have to keep switching windows. I also frequently want to have my video preview on a separate monitor so I can have a taller timeline window. This monitor will help a lot with that. Thanks again for your help!

  • Iphone 6 plus screen crack, how much does it cost.?

    Had iPhone 3,4 and 5 and never had protective case. over the years phones fell several times. they even fell down on road, except for small dings on the edges they  never had cracked screens.
    6 plus screen cracked after falling less than 3 feet (from back pocket) on to wood floor, even with protective case (bought case so that it won't slip from the hand, phone being so slippery).
    I think,  Quality of apple hardware and software went down drastically with latest round of refresh.
    iOS 8 has lot of issues.
    usually hardware is high quality but seems like that is not the case anymore.
    Even worse part of the experience is:
        had online chat with apple support person and (Julian) he/she mentioned he/she will give me a deal for $129, fixing the screen.
        After a quick google search, seems like list price of fixing the screen is in fact $129, I don't think there is any deal  (see the question).
    Question::
      How much does it really cost to fix the screen crack. screen is working fine.
    https://www.apple.com/support/iphone/repair/screen-damage/      
    Page lists price as $129 but support live-chat person mentioned around 350 something and offered deal of $129. 
    Did anyone had the iPhone 6 plus fixed ? if so how much did it cost, without applecare.??

    Whole unit replacement of an iPhone 6 Plus is $329 USD + tax.
    Screen replacement only is $129 USD + tax.
    Either you misunderstood, or they were simply trying to explain how a screen replacement is less expensive than whole unit replacement.
    Why do you care if it's a 'deal' or just the normal price?  Are you wanting to be treated special and different from other Apple customers?

  • HT1338 how much does it cost to get the latest version of safari

    how much does it cost to get latest version of safari

    What MichelPM suggested is the SAFEST solution. Firefox is a better browser than Safari, and you will not be faced with any potentially crippling consequences of a full OS update.
    You will presumably have to update your system at some point, and you should prepare for that by maintaining a full, up-to-date backup of your current main system on an external hard drive. You can use SuperDuper ($25) or Carbon Copy Cloner (the legacy version, 3.5.7) to clone your current system to an external drive. This drive will be bootable and will provide you will a safety net if you decide to install Yosemite at some point.

    My mac pro screen has vertical lines... How much does it cost to get it fixed?

    When you fail to give information on the exact model MBP that you have, how do you expect anyone to provide you with any specific information?
    I suggest that you go to the iFixit.com and Powerbookmedic.com and look for parts and prices.  That naturally assumes that you know what parts are defective and need to be replaced.
