My iPad air is missing some apps from my phone. It keeps saying, " there is not enough storage available to download..."

My iPad air is missing some apps from my phone. It keeps saying, " there is not enough storage available to download...." I purchased additional storage twice, my device now shows 18GB free of a total 25GB, and still I cannot download apps I've had for yrs

iCloud space is for backup only.
You need more local storage; free up space on iPad:
Settings>General>Usage>Storage>Delete what is not needed to free up space on iPad.

TS3274 My ipad is frozen. it says not enough storage and when I press the settings. it still won't move.

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.

HT4759 I have a iPhone and iPad can't use my iPad as it says not enough storage and that the iPad can't be backed up and I can't get use my iPad but all messages and notifications r showing but can't get into them what should I do?

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.

I paid for 55gb storage but keep getting not enough storage message when trying to download a purchased movie

I Paid for 55gb of storage but keep getting not enough storage message when downloading a movie

You paid for iCloud storage. It has no bearing on the capacity of the drive inside your iPad.

"Not enough storage available" but that doesn't appear to be true

I keep getting prompted that there is not enough storage available to backup my iPhone to my iCloud. The thing is, I should have enough space. I have 15GB of space on iCloud. In my iCloud "Manage Storage" settings, it shows that the "Backup size" is 14.8 GB, the "Next Backup Size" is 14.9 GB. When I try to backup to iCloud, it fails because there is not enough storage available. I don't know why this is happening.

You can order a Snow Leopard 10.6 install disk for $29 as long as you have at least 1gb of RAM and 5gb of free space on your hard drive. http://store.apple.com/us/product/MC573Z/A?mco=MTY3ODQ5OTY

Why is my iphone 4 saying not enough storage available?

Hello, when ios 7 came out I could not download it because I didn't have enough storage so I did not stress it. The next week I plugged my iphone in my laptop and it downloaded ios 7 and ever since then my iphone 4 will not let me take pictures, download apps, nothing and it keeps popping up not enough storage available, you can either buy more or delete some. So I deleted A LOT of my apps and pictures and contacts but still even with four apps on my phone it won't let me do anything. Does anyone know why? And I do not want to buy more storage because I am going to upgrade my phone this summer but still its very annoying, can anyone help me please? And thank you !!!

That's iCloud storage that it's talking about
Check Settings>iCloud>Storage & Backup.
Odds are what you see here will show a very small amount as "Available."

Reset iPad
Hold down the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears

HT1766 i deleted a ton of photos and videos from my phone but it's still telling me iCloud won't back up because there is not enough storage available. how do i get around this?

i deleted a ton of photos and videos from my phone but it's still telling me iCloud won't back up because there is not enough storage available. how do i get around this?

The Storage space its referring to is on iCloud. How much iCloud space is left, and how much space is your iPhone using?
iCloud storage space and the iPhone's physical storage space are 2 different things.

IPad 3 not enough storage available in iCloud

On my new iPad 3 iget this error message that won't go away " Not Enough Storage "
How do you fix it?

Not enough storage error - locked up ipad - tried common fix but home button is inop as well...

My home button quit working before my ipad was a year old and I have been dealing with the inconvenience by using the five finger reduction method to get out of apps.   Now I have this error for not enough storage and I can't reboot. What do I do?

Try this - Reset 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 - let go of the buttons. (This is equivalent to rebooting your computer.) No data/files will be erased.

TS3992 My iPad is stuck on message "not enough storage" I've bought more iCloud space, but my device is still stuck on the message and wont respond to the Close or Settings on the touchscreen! Can anyone help?

My iPad is stuck on message "not enough storage", and does not respond to touchscreen Close or Settings. I've bought more iCloud space and tried to get to Settings again to see if I can resume a backup, but no luck. I'm still in the same boat. Cannot even power off the iPad!! Can anyone out there help? I deleted the Backup off the icloud via my PC and hoped this would start off a new one!

iCloud storage will not help you with your problem. You need to remove data from the iPad to make more room on your iPad available.

Why do I keep getting a not enough storage message when trying to install GarageBand on my iPhone 4

I have been trying to re-install GarageBand on my iPhone 4. I have tried downloading from iTunes app store and installing by sync from my MacBook. Neither will work. I keep getting the same "not enough storage" message.

You may need as much as 2Gb free, at least on a temporary basis while installing the app.

Getting not enough storage msg when downloading itunes movie to ipad2

First attempt to download iTunes movie to my iPad2. Got msg saying not enough storage. I'm new to the whole Apple world and am not sure what to do to fix this problem.

Go to Settings>General>Usage and see what's taking up all the space. Delete what you can do without. Remember, you'll need about two times as much space as the size of the file in order to complete the download.
Best of luck.

Not enough free space when syncing iPod touch?

Hi all!
I'm having a seriously frustrating issue with my iTunes (Windows 7) when syncing with my 5th gen iPod touch:
It seems to me like it wants to sync my whole library twice, seeing as the whole thing is 26.33GB, and I'm not sure why!
I've tried:
backing up and restoring my iPod
deselecting 'Sync Music'
syncing it through both wired connection and Wi-Fi
Bearing in mind I really don't want to restore it completely, well, you can see why from the usage!
So if anyone has any ideas or you want me to provide more information please ask. (I desperately want to get some new albums on there!)

Do you have the right boxes checked to sync?
