Ipad has 2.5g of free space yet shows as no space left

Very odd- I have about 2.7g of free space but I can't get any apps to update or 7.1.2 to load due to 'lack of space'? Any help deeply appreciated.

I'm not sure how to make myself clearer- there's a lot of space- certainly enough to update a 100k app or 12, yet the iPad says it won't because there's not enough space. I can clearly see the 'Other' and all the other allocations, and I've been an Apple user since 1987 so this isn't my first computing device

  • TimeMachine reports "Backup Disc full" but TC has still 250 GB free space

    Hi
    i have a little problem with my TC 500GB. After a few backups which worked fine, my TC reported that the backup Volume is full and that TM has to delete an older backup. But my TC has still 250 GB free space (as shown in the airport utility and over the finder).
    I have only one partition or drive on my TC (as shipped).
    The first solution for me would be to erase the drive on the TC and Reset it. But i would like to avoid to backup my files again over wireless lan.
    Any ideas how to solve this problem without deleting the drive on the TC and resetting it?
    thanks

    Hi,
    Have you received any responses at all to this? It doesn't seem so.
    I have exactly the same problem with a 1TB TC and my wife's MB C2D. It had some problems backing up for a while (apparently due to all the wireless issues being reported on these discussion boards - and NOT due to DNSchanger, I've checked). After I managed to get it backed up again by plugging in direct and left backing up overnight, it is now reporting that the backup disk is "almost full". However, there's over 450GB of space left and my MacBook Pro, which also backs up to the same TC is not reporting any issues.
    If anyone knows what the solution might be, please let me know.
    Rgds,
    Guy

  • I am using ipod touch 4g 8 gb, with ios6 software. It is getting very very slow even after i reinstalled the software. Apps like temple run 2 and subway surfers are getting stuck and it is very very slow.My ipod has 2.6 gb free space.

Apps like temple run 2 and subway surfers are getting stuck and it is very very slow.My ipod has 2.6 gb free space. What is the problem. I am not getting to know. Even after i reinstalled these apps it is still getting stuck and it is very very slow. Is this what i get after paying so much money for ipod. Is this what i get very poor perfomance.

    Periodically double click the home button and close all the apps in the recently used dock. Then power off and then back on the iPod. This frees up memory. The 4G only has 256 MB of memory.

  • It says I've got 12,3 GB free space left, of my total 25GB. But my iPhone tells me there is no more space to take pictures or download stuff. It clearly says I have 12,3 GB left. What's the issue here??

    The issue is probably space on the phone, not in your iCloud account.  (Space in your iCloud account does not give you more space on your phone.)  Check Settings>General>Usage at the top to see how much available space you have.  If it's low, you'll have to delete or sync something off our phone to make room for more. 

  • After updating my iPad 3, I have almost no space left, yet I deleted all my photos, videos, and emails. What else needs to be deleted?

    My iPad 3 is for school, so I take a ton of notes on notability. I just updated it recently, and I have almost no space. My iPad has a 16 GB capacity, and my usage says I have used up 13.3 GB. I deleted all my photos, all my videos, most of my music, almost all of my notes, and 75% of all my apps. But everyday it seems like there is more space being used up. I don't get it. It's making my iPad shut down randomly and is not letting me take any photos, even though I have no photos!! It is very annoying! Help!

  • Disk Utility says I have only 115kb of free space left, but Finder says 1TB is this why my computer is slow?

    I want to instal the beta version of Yosemite on a partition, but when I open Disk Utility to do so, it won't allow me. After pressing the plus sign at the bottom of the screen I can not enter a value for the size. When I look down at the very bottom I read the following:
    Capacity: 3.12TB
    Available: 115KB
    Used: 3.12TB
    My trash is empty and Finder says I have 1TB in free space available, so what's going on?
    Perhaps related, my computer has been unreasonably slow (which is why I want to take the Beta for spin). I'm thinking there might be a connection. Is there a way to clear the detailed space so that Disk Utility will recognize it? In an attempt to speed things up I just reinstalled Maverick but nothing happened. I still can't partition and my computer is still slow.
    Everything is up to date.

  • Lenovo ix4-300d free space left

    Hello, I have an Lenovo ix4-300d, 8TB. My free space on the servers tells me that there is left 3.8TB, when I look in my Share there is almost no space left. What can I do to get more space in my shares? Now I receive the following message: The amount of free space on your Lenovo ix4-300d is below 10% of your total capacity. And that should not be the case!? What can I do? Thanks for a reaction, PPU
    PPU

    I am sorry but I am not sure what you are referring to by MIB, are you trying yo use Management Information base to monitor free space? Can you please explain more what you are trying to do? 
    You can manage the free space through LenovoEMC storage manager and we UI. You can even set it up to email you when you are running out of free space.

  • IPad and iTunes disagree on free space

    iPad 3, 64gb.
    iTunes 10.5.2.11, 
    Windows 7
    iTunes says 14.9 gb "free"
    iPad says 27.9 GB "Available"
    Can anyone explain which is right, and why the difference?
    Thnx,

    You have two issues.
    1. Partitioning within Windows and OS X are using two different personalities of a disk, and if not kept in sync, you run into this issue. Apple does not allow Windows partition to be resized because they do not provide the appropriate tools to keep them in sync.
    2. If you are willing to take a backup of OS X and all your files, the cleanest method is to erase the drive and restore from a backup, preferably using a Time Machine backup.

  • Adjust the amount of "free space" left on iphone using Autofill Feature

    I know that there used to be a way to tell itunes how much space to leave on an ipod/iphone, but I don't see that option any more. I've looked for the info in the help sections and follow the prompts, but it's not under the device menu and then music as it says that it should be. Does anyone know where this option has gone or if it only applies to ipods and not iphones?

    I believe my answer is here:
    According to iTunes help, you must have the device connected, have manually manage music selected and then select the music folder under your device (iPod or iPhone) in the device pane. From there, you are given the options. According to the help topic, they are in the bottom of the music pane. It says click on the settings button.
    Since I don't have manually manage music and I don't want to have to sync my music library again, I cannot test it for you, but if you go to iTunes help, search on autofill, and then select the topic Using Autofill with iPod, iPhone and iPad.
    See if that helps.

  • Where do I find the amount of free space left

    The answer used to be at the bottom of the finder window you saw howmuch space was being used

    You can put that information back into the finder window with
    command - /  (forward slash).
    Equivalently, show the status bar from the Finder view menu.

  • My iPad has 21 apps but my iphone4s only shows 13 - why?

    I was trying to get apps from my iPad to my new iPhone and the apps store purchase section only shows 13 instead of the 21 that are on my iPad. Does someone know why, or rather how do I get all 21 available to download. Tks.

    When you plug in your iPhone to iTunes, click on your iPhone in the list that runs down the left side and then in the large main view box on the right, click the "Apps" tab on your iPhone.  Check all the apps on the list that are available to you that you would like to load. There are going to be seperate lists as you scroll down.  Some of your apps may be iPad only, but going through the list, if you see they arent iPad exclusive, you can check them, then hit the "sync" button in the bottom right corner and it will load the remaining apps.

  • Cannot sync I phone. I get this message The iPhone" cannot be synced because there is not enough free space to hold all of the items in the iTunes library (additional 436.1 MB required).I have 9 GB of free space left ?

    What can I do to correct this ?

    No. Untick EVERYTHING. Then click apply.
    THEN tick what you want to sync then click apply again.
    This is a fix for the original posters question.
    Yes, so is my suggestion.
    Just untick what you don't want on the iPhone sync then sync.

  • ITunes syncing error reports not enough free space

    Having an issue with syncing the iPad where iTunes reports that there is not enough free space to transfer the selected data. In this case it was an app(The Elements) which is 1.78 GB. The iPad has 3.8 GB free space, yet the app cannot be transfered because there is "Insufficient space". I used to see the same problem with my iPhone when attempting to sync back the photos i just copied off the camera app. There is definately free space, but iTunes seems to see something different than what is reported.
    BTW. I could not sync the app to the iPad using iTunes, but there was enough free space to directly download the app on the iPad. Seems like a problem with iTunes to me.
    Is iTunes and the iPad reporting an incorrect amount of free space? Can iTunes be forced to transfer apps without checking for the amount of free space? Any other ideas?

    It seems like double the size of the app is needed to install it on the device.

  • My iPhone wont sync my music from iTunes, all updated software and plenty of GB free space.. what's going on? It says error (13019).

    Just recently I bought a bunch of new albums on iTunes, and when I plugged my iPhone 4 in to sync the music over, it went through all 5 steps in the viewer box, but at the end it said, "The iPhone "andrea's iPhone" could not be synced. An unknown error has occured (13019)."
    I have no idea what this means, all my software is up to date and my phone still has 8.6GB of free space left (it's a 32GB) and I'm only trying to add 20ish songs.
    Anyone have this sort of issue or error warning before? I figured I'll have to go into an Apple store to really sort this all out, but thought someone on here might have dealt with something like this before.
    Please help!
