HT4623 I bought extra cloud storage in order to get the update, yet my iPhone is still saying I don't have enough storage.

I've just tried to update to iOS6, yet was getting the message '2.5MB storage needed'. Decided I might aswel buy an extra year of extra cloud storage, yet my phone still won't let me download the new iOS as it still must not have registered that I now have enough storage capacity.
Thanks

Icloud storage has nothing at all to do with the amount of storage on your iphone.
You need to make more room on your iphone by deleting some content.
Icloud has nothing at all to do with this.

I can't backup my iPhone 5. It says I don't have enough storage. So I've deleted like 6-7 apps and its still says I don't have enough storage. And it also says the same thing when I want to buy new apps or music. Also my messages won't send; I have to turn my phone off and resend then just to they can send. I can't even take any pictures because it says I have no storage.(I currently have 1,658 photos and 72 videos by the way.) What can I do? I just my phone in late December. I didn't think it would act up this bad before I even had it for a year. Please help.

Your phone needs more storage, buying storage on iCloud.com doesn't change that.
Delete some of the stuff off of your phone, it's full.

So when I try to update or download an app it says I don't have enough storage. I don't know how to use iCloud and stuff soo what do I do? Help! I don't wanna delete any pics either.

Ive been trying for 2 days now to get iOS 7, I have deleted all of my apps, all of my pictures and all of my music yet it is still saying I do not have enough storage for the new update. Does anyone know how I can fix this or what might be taking up all of my storage?

What is the EXACT message you're getting?
Are you trying to update over the air or via iTunes on your computer?

HT1222 My iPhone 5 keeps saying I don't have enough storage to update software even though I just purchased 15GB of storage. Can anybody please explain this to me? I'm really not tech savvy AT ALL so I don't have a clue what to do :(

My iPhone keeps telling me I don't have enough space to update my software. But I just bought 15GB of storage, of which 11.7GB is free! So I don't understand. Can anybody please help me? I'm really bad with technology so I don't have a clue.

Hi Caroline,
The storage issue you are having is not related to iCloud. The error is telling you that you do not have enough room on your device itself. You need to go to Settings>General>Usage, and under the Storage section at the top, it lists all of your apps and other things taking up room on your device.
You will have to delete or reduce the size of items on this list in order to free up some room for your update.
Also, you may want to try the update by hooking up your device to iTunes on the computer you sync with. It does not require as much free memory to update via iTunes as it does OTA.
Cheers,

I'm trying to download FIFA 13 update from App Store. I have over 3G of local storage, the update is around 1Gb but it says I don't have enough local storage to download. What's the problem??

I'm trying to download an update for FIFA 13 for my iPhone. My storage says I have around 3.2Gb of local storage space available. The update is 1Gb but when I try to download it, it says I don't have enough space. Why is this happening?

Becasue you do not have enough space available.
It can take much more space that the size of the app to install.
Update on your compter, then sync, if you do not want to create more space

HT4759 How do I get the updated IOS 7.1 when it says I do not have enough space? I also have I- cloud.

How do I upgrade to the latest IOS when it says I do not have enough space?

you can bypass the storage requirement by plugging the iPhone into a computer and updating via iTunes.

I have deleted email and photos from my device but icloud still says I don't have any storage

I have deleted emails and photos from my device but iCloud still says I don't have enough storage to download the latest iOS version

You'll have to delete more data from the device.
Go to Settings>General>Usage to see how much "Storage" you have available on the device. (Ignore storage on icloud, since that is not part of the equation.)

I just bought more storage and it is still showing i don't have enough storage? When does the storage plan kick in?

I just bought more storage and it is still showing I don't have enough storage. When does it actually kick in? I need to download an app and it's saying I don't have enough space??? thanks for the help

What sort of "storage" did you buy? If you are referring to iCloud storage, that does not change the amount of storage on your iPhone. You will have to delete things from your iPhone to be able to add more apps. If you want to have music in the cloud rather than on your iPhone, you need to subscribe to iTunes Match, after which you will be able to stream music rather than keeping it on your iPhone, though of course you'll need an internet connection to do so and can burn through your cell service data allowance rather quickly if you play a lot of music and don't have WiFi available.
Regards.

HT4623 I can't update my phone or take pictures because it says I don't have enough storage so I upgrade my iCloud but I get the same message.

I can't update my phone or take pictures. It says I do not have enough storage available. So, I purchased more iCloud storage and it says the same thing.

Purchasing more Storage on iCloud will not increase the Storage Capacity of your iDevice.
You need to Delete Content from your iDevice...
Goto... Settings > General > Usage > Storage = Then Delete Content...
See Here > http://osxdaily.com/2013/07/24/remove-data-storage-iphone-ipad/
OR... do the Update using iTunes on your Computer.

I downloaded a tv show from iTunes and I can't watch it because it says I don't have enough storage to download?

How do I watch a iTunes tv show I downloaded when a message pops up and says I don't have enough storage to download?

Hi gregdojo,
Welcome to macbook forum.
Did you download it completely before you try to play it?
How much space left in your HD?
What about other TV shows? Try to download another one (pick one from the free section).
If other played just fine and your last download still won't play smoothly, you can contact iTunes costumer service to adjust your credit back.
Good Luck.
ps: try to update the iTunes and repair permission after that might help.

It says I don't have enough Storage, when I do! What's wrong?

I want to update an app that is 1.2 GB, and I have about 2.3 GB left, it says I don't have enough storage. What should I do? I deleted half of my apps, and I'm trying to update via iTunes on my computer, but it doesn't let me drag the updated app on my iPod.

1.1Mb is a tiny amount of space. A 16Gb iPad can store around 16,000 Mb iCloud gives you 5,000Mb by default.
It sounds like you are either misreading the figure or the error is genuine.
If it is correct you can either pay for more space or try deleting the last backup - frankly deleting backups is a terrible idea. You may be better off syncing & backing up to iTunes on a computer.

I have purchased a film from the istore and it had transferred to my download but I can not do it as it say I don't have enough storage. I pressed the he version and know SD are smaller how can I change it to SD version?

Tap Settings > General > About then swipe down, you'll see Available.
Make sure there's at least 500MB's of storage space.

The photos in my photo stream removed and it says you don't have enough storage and your device why I am receiving this message and why my photos erased from photo stream

Try deleting the old backup.
Settings>iCloud>Storage & Backup>Manage Storage, tap the device name and on the resulting screen, scroll down and tap on Delete Backup.

Trying to download the new Black Ops app and when downloading 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 iPhone 4S)

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
