Reboot the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider if it appears on the screen - let go of the buttons. Let the iPad start up.

I have plugged it into itunes on the computer and manually backed it up but i cannot use my phone as i cant get past this message
Welcome to the Apple Community.
You might try a forced shutdown to begin with, hold down the top and home buttons together until the device shuts down, then restart it. -
my ipod is telling me there is not enough storage and I cannot back it up as there is not enough icloud storage. I am unable to close the message or go onto settings.
Try:
- Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Then delete some stuff -
I keep getting an error message that reads: Not enough storage This iphone cannot be backed up because there is not enough icloud storage available. What does this mean? How do I fix it?
Try doing a hard reset:
Press and hold both the Home button and the Sleep/wake button simultaneously for about 15 seconds and release when the Apple logo appears.
After that: go to Settings - iCloud - Storage and backup - turn off the iCloud backup
and backup with iTunes from now on

Or, if you prefer to keep backing up with iCloud, check out this article, it will help you understand how to manage the iCloud storage:

i have a i phone 5 that we are getting a message not enough storage this Iphone cannot be backed up beacause there is not enough Icloud storage available. But we cannot go to settings or close out the message . i cannot power off the phone or anthing. How do i clear this off the phone.
First, press and hold the home and power buttons until the Apple icon appears.
The problem could be that you don't have enough storage on the device itself, not on iCloud. Go to Settings>General>Usage to see how much "Storage" you have available on the device. Farther down the list is the available storage on iCloud.
Also check:
Go to Settings>iCloud>Storage & Backups>Manage Storage; there, tap the device you need info on and the resulting screen lists Backup Options with which apps store data on iCloud as well. Tap Show All Apps to get the complete list of apps and MB used for backup storage.
A device needs many MB of storage in order to perform a backup to iCloud.

Got new iPad 4 a week ago and it's saying not enough storage and when I go to tap on settings nothing is happening and I won't switch off!
If your device is frozen and unresponsive, reset it by holding the power and home buttons at the same time until you see the Apple logo, then release.

Hi I have a problem with my ipad mini it reads not enough storage and it wouldn't let me do anything
Hi I have a message on my ipad mini that reads not enough storage and go to settings but it won't let me do anything, what can I do?
I think you're saying you cannot even successfully click the "Settings" button.
If that's right, try resetting your iPad. Hold the home and on/off buttons together for about 10 seconds till the Apple logo appears.
Your goal should be to get to Settings > General > Usage which will tell you some of the memory hogs on your iPad. You then should clean some items from the iPad's memory. -
My iPad and iPhone4s both state "NOT ENOUGH STORAGE" and can't backup due to not enough iCloud storage available in the cloud.
I have sync my phone to my pc using itunes, but I still get the msg on the phone - could it be that the ipad and phone both receive the same mail? I did go into Settings - icloud - and shut off Mail on phone - I will sync the iPad as well - both devices receive my mail as well as Acer pc.? thank you -Not having enough storage in your iCloud account isn't caused by using your iCloud email account on your device. It may be caused by having lots of email in your account though.
Go to Settings>iCloud>Storage & Backup>Manage Storage to see what is taking up the space in your account. -

I cannot acces my IPhone due to i get a notification saying that i dont have enough storage and i need to back it up with ICloud but it wont let me click close or settings there for i cannot recieve calls or acces my email or text messages. I even tried turning off the power but it wont let me do anything please help !
If the iPhone won't Restart you should be able to Reset it. Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button together for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
For the future (in case you don't' know), go to Settings > iCloud > Storage & Backup > Manage Storage, and choose your Device under the Backups list.
Under the Backup Options turn off anything you don't care about (being backed up, that is). This will let you reduce the backup size so that it fits in iCloud again. You can also delete the current backup here.
You should also check Settings > General > Usage and look at how much data each app is storing. Identify problem apps and go clean out unwanted files.

Hold Sleep and Home buttons for 10 seconds until the device restarts -
My ipad is frozen.It says not enough storage but when I press the settings, it's still not moving or doing anything. What do I need to do?
First thing to try is to reset your device. Press and hold the Home and Sleep buttons simultaneously ignoring the red slider should one appear until the Apple logo appears. Let go of the buttons and let the device restart. See if that fixes your problem.
If your pad is running out of space it is time to delete unneeded items. -
