How to gain more storage (usage) space (like GBs) back my iPad?

I deleted apps off my iPad but I still see that the used GB isn't back on here..... I want to know how do I get back my space?

How much space is your Other using? You may be able to reduce.
How Do I Get Rid Of The “Other” Data Stored On My iPad Or iPhone?
http://tinyurl.com/85w6xwn
With an iOS device, the “Other” space in iTunes is used to store things like documents, settings, caches, and a few other important items. If you sync lots of documents to apps like GoodReader, DropCopy, or anything else that reads external files, your storage use can skyrocket. With iOS 5, you can see exactly which applications are taking up the most space. Just head to Settings > General > Usage, and tap the button labeled Show All Apps. The storage section will show you the app and how much storage space it is taking up. Tap on the app name to get a description of the additional storage space being used by the app’s documents and data. You can remove the storage-hogging application and all of its data directly from this screen, or manually remove the data by opening the app. Some applications, especially those designed by Apple, will allow you to remove stored data by swiping from left to right on the item to reveal a Delete button.

How to gain more experience.

So I've been using linux for a few years now. Problem is that I've been using mostly ubuntu/gnome which never really necesitated learning the CLI. At my work we have 4 fedora servers and a centos6 server that my boss is hoping I will eventually oversee. As it stands, the contractor who set them up is overseeing them. I really need to learn a lot of things quickly. I'm thinking I should probably become pretty proficient at writing regular expressions and bash scripting as well as learning all the tools the CLI offers. How do I go about doing this? Where do I start? I'm learning slowly, but are there ways to speed up the process? My whole reason for installing arch was that it forced me to use CLI. Ideas are welcome.

Can I use icloud to store my iTunes library music in order to free up storage/usage space on my iPhone?

Can I use icloud to store my iTunes music library in order to free up usage space on my iPhone and iPad?

iTunes match is a true streaming service when it comes to playback from your PC. That means, you can load everything into the cloud and stream from the cloud to your PC.
To an iPhone or iPad, it's stream-and-save, meaning it will download and play immediately, but it will be saved to the device.
So yes, you can load everything up (assuming it all loads properly without problems) and stream to your PC.

How to make more storage space to upgrade iPhone 4

Can’t upgrade to IOS 8.0.2 b/c phone says, “This upgrade cannot be installed because it requires at least 4.7 GB of storage. You can make more storage available by deleting items in Usage Settings.” Phone says I only have 1.4 GB available. I’ve only got 1) 2.7 GB of music, 2) 161 MB of photos, and total of 2 GB of other apps. Everything else are Apple apps, such as contacts, safari, mail, etc. I cleaned out most photos.
I’ve made a point of downloading very few apps and keeping all photos on my iMac, but the phone has filled up in only a few months. Seems only way to make any real space available is to have no music, no photos, and no apps. Only that will create 4.8 GB of available space. Is it just a phone then? Is there any other practical option?

You can look in Settings > General > Usage > Storage > Manage Storage. That list will tell you what is taking up the most amount of space. Obvious culprits are photos and video. But games and magazine subscriptions are also very large.
What you delete first depends on what you use your iPhone for. What is your priority? In any case, that list will at least help you see what takes up the most space and decide what should go first.

How do I get more storage on my Iphone 5s? (I just bought the 10GB and thought it would increase my storage but it didn't)

No it is a backup on iCloud ,a backup replicates what you have on the device on to another device or cloud, it does not moves it anywhere
Do you have a PC or Mac if so use this advice

Freeing Up Space on The Hard Drive
See Lion's Storage Display.
You can remove data from your Home folder except for the /Home/Library/ folder.
Visit The XLab FAQs and read the FAQ on freeing up space on your hard drive.
Also see Freeing space on your Mac OS X startup disk.
I would think about installing a larger hard drive.

How to make more hard disc space available

Working in iMovie, I ran out of hard disk space so I cleared Trash and moved everything that was not essential for the task in hand onto a memory stick, including most applications such as iWork. However, no matter what I removed or cleared I was unable to recover half the 55GB nominally available on the McIntosh HD. What will be tying up the 25+GB of the nominal 55GB available and can I free it up?

actually most of the data is in the iMovie event, not the project. The project is small until you "Share" and then it contains a copy of the QT movie, that you can only see if you right click (control click) the project and "show package contents". you can toss those Qt movies (you can always make them again) if you want and they are there.
If you are sure you will never want the unused parts of the clips (stored in iMovie events) again, go to "move event to trash" and you will be prompted to delete
"delete unused" or delete entire clip. If you delete unused it will take a while to process, but will then trash every clip that you didnt use and any part of any clip you did use , keeping just that parts of the clips you used in your project. Then you will have to get them to the trash through the events browser window, then empty the trash. The other way is to choose "space saver" and that will toss (for all your events, not just the one you highlight) any clips not used, leaving the clips you do use alone, a safer way to free up space, but wont free up as much space.

IPhone 6 shows more storage usage than actually used

my iphone 6 Is using 54gb when I know I use less than that and I only had this phone for few months

How much is being used by other? This is the iOS, application data, mail data, and a few other things. If Other is more than 3GB, then that is indicitive of corrupted files on the phone. The way to take care of this is a restore. You can try a restore from a backup first, however that generally will just copy the corrupt file back to the phone, so you would need to restore as a new device. Remember, this will delete all data off the device.
