HT1766 if I don't have enough space on my regular disk "C" so I couldn't make backup- can I in some way backup it on disk "D"?
Hello dear support team.
I have a question.
I want to make a backup of my iPad but it has so much storage used so I don't have enough space on my regular disk "C" so I couldn't make backup- can I in some way backup it on disk "D"? Or I was thinking if it is possible to change the path or to backup it on my PC( another computer in my room).

iCloud only give so much space for free storage, then if you exceed the limit of 5gb you have to pay for additional storage. -
I just tried to download the new iOS 5 software during my sync with iTunes on my computer to my iPhone 4, however, I got an error message saying that I did not have enough space on my computer to continue (even though I am pretty sure I do). It offered me the choice of deleting much of the media on my iPhone in order to continue, which of course I declined.
How can I ensure that I have enough space on my computer to download the new iOS 5 software? I don't want to delete anything on my computer and I have already defragged. Can I just hook up an external hard drive which I am certain has enough space? If so, how can I ensure that iTunes recognizes the external hard drive as the drive that it should be downloading the software to?
ThanksWhy, if it told you you have insufficient space on your computer, would it suggest making more space available on your phone?
At a guess, you have insufficient space on your phone. Installing software will typically require more space than the final size of the software, perhaps even twice or three times as much, for the installation process. You can easily dump some videos or music temporarily, and then synch them back in afterwards. -
My 16gb iPhone 4S keep tell me that my storage is almost full and I don't have enough space for any upgrades. I don't have any music or videos on my phone. I deleted all old emails, texts, contacts and apps but still nothing. When I check my settings, I noticed that my Instagram is at 732mb and it keeps rising. Now it's at 814mb. Please help!!!!!
What is the precise wording of the message that is occurring?
Are you attempting to update via iTunes on a computer or over the air on the device?
How much free space is actually on the device?
If updating via iTunes on the computer, how much free space on the computer? -
Can I back up my iPhone 4S to my ipad 3 (64 gb)? I do not have a computer running Mountain Lion. Our desktop still runs Tiger, so I purchased the 3rd generation iPad with 64 gb thinking it had had plenty of room to backup my iPhone photos. I used a camera connection kit and transferred about 1100 old photos from my camera roll on my iPhone to my ipad. I then deleted pictures from my iPhone and now my camera roll has only 357 photos. However, in the Settings, under "About" it says I have 2147 photos. Why? I only have a total of 216 photos in all my albums. However, now I don't have enough space in iCloud to backup either device. Why not? Any help, any advice, appreciated please! I spent a long time on the phone with Apple today and they couldn't solve the problem.

I have an ipad and iphone sharing icloud. The ipad is using 268mb, the iphone 2.6. My plan is 5gb but it keeps saying I don't have enough space to back them up. How is this possible?
Hey sameyrs2,
Thanks for the question. Based on what you stated, it seems like you are getting a message when trying to backup to iCloud. I would recommend that you read these articles, they may be helpful in troubleshooting your issue.

I have a new ipod touch, 32GB, 4th gen. I tried to sync the 2,250 songs I have in itunes to the ipod, but it says I don't have enough space. This ipod is supposed to hold up to 7000 songs. I haven't put photos or anything else in this ipod. What am I missing?

What is the format of your songs? -
Hi there,
Wondering if you might know? I don't have enough space to update the new software on iPad. So my facetime isn't working anymore, this is prob why. Seems I have to delete like all the games/apps we have to do so. Will I lose the progress data/levels in the games? But how do I back up the games data?
Please help. Scared to delete them to update and then not have the space to restore them and if I get them again will the levels/progress be gone?
Thanks RachelConnect your device to iTunes and do the update through iTunes. Using a computer takes much less space on your device than doing the update on your device.

I was trying to download the new Black Ops (Strike Team) app and when I try to download it, it says I don't have enough storage space. I made sure I had 1.31 GB of space (like it requires) but it still says I don't have enough space. I even tried to delete more 2.5 GB (I have the iPhone 4S) and the app specifically says that is is compatable with iPhone 4S. I even tried rebooting the phone a couple times before downloading, but it still says the same thing.
The app you are trying to download my be a zipped file and more space than 1.3GB. go to settings/general/usage and delete what you no longer want to make more space

I want to be able to backup my iPhone 4 to an external hard drive since I don’t have enough space on my Windows hard drive, how do I do that?
Go through the below forum with similar issue and follow the process mentioned by "Macjack" in the beginning.

I Updated itunes and it wiped out all of my music and apps. I had over 4500 songs and had to reload. Some from backup, some from cd's. Now when I try to sync my IPods and IPad, it says I don't have enough space to sync. I know I do because I have less now than when I would sync before all of the nice update.
LIl WDepending on how you recovered the library iTunes may see the restored files as "new" content and not match them properly with what is already on the device. See Empty/corrupt library after upgrade/crash for the way I would normally approach the issue. You may need to manually backup and then restore the device in order to fix things.

I hate iTunes. It continues to download HD versions of movies when I tell it not to. The movie I want is 4.4 gigs. I have deleted all my apps and half my songs and still don't have enough space. iTunes is near impossible to navigate.
I have downloaded Oblivion six times and it continues to bring the HD version. I have unchecked the "Download HD when available" but I continue to get a file that is 4.4 gigs large.
I hate iTunes.You purchased the HD version, not the regular version. It will continue to download the version you bought. If you want the SD version you have to shell out for it. Apple doesn't do returns.
Watch your movie. You can always put other stuff back on later, especially music. -
Don't have enough space for an app even though I know I do?
I Can't download an app (The World Ends With You: Solo Remix) because I "don't have enough space" even though I know I have enough space. The app is 659 Mb, but I have 1.0 Gb available according to iTunes when I plug my phone into my Mac (I also have 1 full Gig of space used by "Other" among Audio, Video, Apps, etc. What is "Other?") I've also failed to download the app through my Mac because it automatically tried to download apps I had deleted some time ago. My dad claims it sometimes won't download if it "Thinks you might fill it up" although I don't believe that's the case. Does anyone know what to do? I spent 9 bucks on this thing, It's even on SALE.
Thanks, I figured that out after I posted the question, so I cleared out a lot of space, but it still won't download. The app is supposedly 659 Mb according to the App Store, meaning it needs anything from about 1318 to 1967 Mb to download, if it's anywhere around 2 or 3x, But it still fails even after I cleaned up for a total of 2.2 Gb. I've got no clue really, my best guess is it's still not enough and needs 3.5 or 4x, but I could be wrong. Thanks anyway, any other clues?
