HT1766 When syncing, iTunes tells me that there is not enough space on my iPhone, even though there are 20GB of free space

There obviously IS enough free space, yet somehow iTunes seems to think there isn't.
What do I do? Did somebody have this problem before?
Tried restarting, switching on and off, nothing worked

Unfortunately that's not the case.
I didn't confuse it with my iCloud storage. I'm talking specifically about the storage ON my iPhone.
When syncing the diagram on the bottom of the page (you know the coloured one that gives you Audio, Photos, Apps...) shows me that I have more than 20GB of remaining space.
And I'm trying to get audio on it which is definitely LESS than 20 GB. So it should fit.
But it still gives me the error message that the data I'm trying to sync to my phone is too large

  • I can't restore my backup because it says there's not enough room on my phone even though I just deleted everything

    I Backed my iPhone up to my computer before getting a new Apple Id, but now when I try to load it on it says there's not enough room. Help please!

    Sounds like you were running right at the maximum capacity of the iPhone when you made the backup, but you've since updated the iOS which is now taking up a little more space than the previous version.

  • I have an iPhone 5S, with iOS 8.1.2  I am trying to do a system restore but the message I get on the desktop is that there is not enough room on the iPhone. How much room is required?

    I have an iPhone 5S, with iOS 8.1.2  I am trying to do a system restore but the message I get on the desktop is that there is not enough room on the iPhone. How much room is required?
    I had an important app. (Memos by bluemarblesoftware.com) that I accidentally deleted. It of course had many memos, some with quite a lot of information. I did sync my phone on a regular basis and I think the memos should be on the desktop computer. I tried to do a restore function but I got a message saying there was not enough room on the iPhone. How much room is needed?

    generally you need 1.90gb
    what you can do is back up your phone to your computer before doing the update, just as a precaution.

    Is this a clean install or an upgrade?  20 GB, though greater than the minimum, is pretty minimal.  How much memory do you have on the system?  2008 would try to create a page file of 1.5x physical memory, so if you are building on a large
    memory system, you could be having an issue there.

    my phone is disabled because the language got changed and I kept trying to unlock it. It tells me to connect to itunes but then itunes tells me that I have to insert the password on my iphone before proceeding. I am unable to type in the password. Help!!

  • HT3702 every time I enter my card details it says this is not a Valid Method of Payment even though there is money on my card and all details are entered correctly?

    stop ******* me off

    Perhaps you should contact the iTunes store via expresslane.  They can look at your account and provide the information you are looking for. 
    Expresslane.apple.com / select iTunes / iTunes Store / Purchases, Billing and Redemption / then unable to purchase from the iTunes store.
    Try the article, and if that doesn't solve the issue, you can Email them, or there may be other options depending on when you access the page, and where you are located.

  • Most of my music is not longer available on my iPhone, even though it is synced

    I don't have iTunes Match, but a lot of my music is not longer downloaded onto my iPhone, and there's no option to download the song - even when I have wifi. How do I get my music back on my device?
    In iTunes, when I look at the "On This Phone" screen for my iPhone, the songs that my iPhone won't play are faded and have a grey circle to the left of their names. It does not happen exclusively with purchased songs.

    I am finding every single hard drive that has a itunes library on it.  I am only moving the music folders inside the itunes folder to the new WDhd.  After the music folder is on the WDhd, I add what disk it came from. COPY media files (MP3, M4A, etc) whilst noting where they came from
         Do I make a big music folder on WDhd, called "BIG MUSIC Archive" and dump the content of each of the downloaded music folders into the BIG MUSIC Archive? That is what I had/have set up
         Won't there be a problem wiht folder (artists and albums) deleting each other where the last music folder wins? No because you copy them to separate folders/directories initially.
         This is were I am now.
         Later, Step 2,  turn on my usual Itunes and do the Library -> Consolidate     ?
         THis will absorbe the BIG MUSIC Archive on teh WDhd drive.   I wil call my current libary on my current itunes external drive  ORIGINAL MUSIC
         Maybe before STEP 2, I should get rid of all the dead files (a title but no song) that I mentioned before. Dead files can help you track what you cannot find
         I can then use the resutling  ORIGINAL music folder as the new BIG MUSIC folder on my dedicated WDhd Arcihve hard drive. YES OR Allow iTunes to copy to the iTunes folder (Preferences->Advanced Tab.  I never do/did this as my PC Hard Drive partition/Macbook Air does not have the storage space.
         Is that a good paraphrase of what you told me to do?  If not, please give me simple instructions.

  • DO NOT show the DEPLOYMENT SUMMARY page even though there are warnings or errors in it when MDT finished

    I put SKIPFINALSUMMARY=YES in my cus.ini
    But the page still shows at the end of process.
    I don't care what's in it,but just make this page hidden automaticly

    Having MDT display the wizard in case of a error (red/salmon) is by design.
    Better to figure out which steps are failing in your task sequence and/or marking the failing steps with "Continue on error" in the Task Sequence Editor. That will suppress errors that are really warnings.

  • Why did my playlists dissapear from my iPhone, even though they are still on my iTunes?

    I went into my iPhone music app today (on my 4s), and I noticed all my playlists were gone.  All my music could still be found under Songs/Artists, just my playlists were missing.  I went home and noticed they were all on my iTunes still though.
    I use iTunes match, so I turned it off on both iTunes and iPhone, then turned back on, but still playlists were gone.  I haven't done anything with iTunes or my phone recently, so I am not sure what has happened.  The only thing I have done was hook up an apple TV the other day...is that what did it?
    Anyways, I plugged my phone in, turned off Match, and synced.  Playlists are there now.  Turn on iTunes Match, and they dissapear again.
    What's going on? All the songs in my playlists are uploaded or matched in the could.
    Thanks,
    Andrew

    Hi Bhaskar,
    I think you can ask the test center peoples also in this what to do or you can raise your query with cisco directly regarding the same.
    Hope to help
