IPhone 5C 8GB - Pictures take almost all storage

Hi All,
I have a iPhone 5C with 8 GB of memory which is almost full.
When I check the storage usage I have 5.3 GB in use and 26 MB free. This is a bit strange because I have 8 GB?
The Pictures and Camera take 2,6 GB. This is 1,2 GB Picture Library and 1,2 GB iTunes Synchronisation. Can the iTunes synchronisation be turned off or removed?
When I connect my iPhone to my computer and copy the pictures/movies the size is aprox. 530 MB and not 1,2 GB.
I do use Photo Streams, do these Photo Streams use storage?
Thanks!

Hi Almost 3G will be used up by ios 8 & your apps if you can sell & buy a 32G iphone. Cheers Brian

  • HT201272 I cant download my purchased music onto my new iPhone 5. I bought almost all my music through iTunes over my phone but it wont let me download "ALL"--I have to go in individually to each album.

    I cant download my purchased music onto my new iPhone 5. I bought almost all my music through iTunes over my phone but it wont let me download "ALL"--I have to go in individually to each album. Can anyone help me figure out how to do a single "ALL" music download?
    I even tried synching from mt computer backup but it wont do it.

    You can only sync everything with your one syncing computer/iTunes library. Yu can:
    - Make this your syncing computer by:
    Syncing to a "New" Computer or replacing a "crashed" Hard Drive: Apple Support Communities
    - Use the manual method to copy music and videos from any computer/iTunes library to the iPod. See the manual method included here:

  • Can someone let me know if this is true, ive read that iphone are replacing the 3gs 8gb for the iphone 4 8gb is this at all true?

    You do realize that this article ( form August -beofore Apple announced the new iphone) was simply speculating on what the next iphone to be released would be.
    You do not have to guess any longer.  Apple has allready released the iphone 4s.
    You seem to be very confused about what this is saying.
    This article simply guessed that maybe iphone was going to announce a new cheap iphone at the conferance which happend a couple of months ago.
    We now know that this was completely wrong.  Apple released the iphone 4s.
    The article does not mean that they would give iphone 3gs users a iphone 4 as  a replacement.  It meant that they would not make 3gs any longer and would now make a cheaper iphone 4 instead.
    We now know that this was incorrect.

  • IPhone synching appears to delete almost all entries in Address Book

    When I left the house yesterday, Address Book on my MBP had 2,187 contacts in it. When I looked at it this AM, Address Book had 4 entries. My iPhone and another computer, both of which are synched against this computer using dot-mac and iTunes, respectively, seemed unchanged. I didn't launch Address Book on the offending computer during this time.
    My first thought was to restore using dot-mac. I went to another computer which syncs against my .mac membership, and I overwrote .mac with local. I then overwrote Address Book on my MBP with dot-mac. Everything seems to have been restored. (I keep regular backups of Address Book because of the large number of sync errors I experience, so I can revert to a backup also).
    I then thought to look in my log file, which, I think, pins iTunes synching as the culprit. Here is relevant material from my log file:

    Any thoughts as to why this happened, or what I can do to avoid it in the future?
    Alan

    Alright, ten minutes later, it's all back and good again.
    Doesn't make sense, and I do not know which if any of these steps did it, but here's what I did, in order that I did them:
    1. Deleted the file 'com.apple.AddressBook.abd.plist,' quit Address Book.
    2. In iTunes' iPhone "Info" tab, clicked off all syncing except "Sync Address Book Contacts" and I clicked "Selected Groups" instead of "All Contacts." Then I selected the smallest group I have, just three contacts, so that if they got deleted from the iPhone I wouldn't have to die.
    3. Clicked "Apply" Or "Sync" or whichever the button was. It started syncing. I didn't see the SyncAlert window that I expected to see.
    4. Sync finished. I opened Address Book and voila, everything was as it should be including the new contact I made this morning on my iPhone before seeing that all this happened on my Mac.
    And now step 5. In Address Book, File>Backup Address Book to my documents and my external backup drive and my dot Mac, and realize that syncing isn't doing that for me. Add this file to my regular weekly backups.
    Hope this helps.

    Check for 'others' in iTunes against your iPhone.
    Restore from a previous backup to reclaim some of it.
    Still want more, Restore in iTunes, setup as New.

    My 16gb iPhone 4S keep tell me that my storage is almost full and I don't have enough space for any upgrades. I don't have any music or videos on my phone. I deleted all old emails, texts, contacts and apps but still nothing. When I check my settings, I noticed that my Instagram is at 732mb and it keeps rising. Now it's at 814mb. Please help!!!!!

    What is the precise wording of the message that is occurring?
    Are  you attempting to update via iTunes on a computer or over the air on the device?
    How much free space is actually on the device?
    If updating via iTunes on the computer, how much free space on the computer?

  • I just got a new iPhone 6 but when I did the restore from backup of my old iPhone 4; none of my pictures were there and almost all of my calendar was missing. Can anyone help?

    Hi, I just bought an iPhone 6, 64GB and had everything ready to do the "restore from backup" from my old iPhone 4 8GB. It kept stopping and I'd have to start over from the beginning. When I finally got it to do something with the help of my provider(who had walked me thru from the beginning anyway); I figured I was all set. Then I went to see my pics to use one for my lock screen and there were NO PICTURES AT ALL and only part of my calendar came over. I'm missing a lot of future appointments that I know are set up. I made sure not to wipe out my old one yet; as I will have to since I did the trade in plan; so I still have my old iPhone 4 and it has everything in it, in addition to having the backup on two computers in the house.
    I also tried syncing it after the restore since things were missing, but that didn't work either.
    I would appreciate any help so I can use my phone and get going with it.
    Thanks!

    Did you choose the wrong back up? There should be a drop box when you go to "Restore from Back up" in iTunes and your iPhone is plugged in, on the Summary page. Choose the correct back up. If you can't find one, and you still have your device, back up your iPhone 4 again and then choose that back up. Or check for an old iCloud back up if you have one.

  • My (shared) iMessages are taking up almost all my iPhone storage. Is there a way to remove them to clear up some space on my phone?

    My (shared) iMessages are taking up almost all my iPhone storage. Is there a way to remove them to free up space on my phone?

    Thx - the videos are on my Ipad - that is the problem - they are taking up all the storage and there is no room for anything else. Is there any place I can store them so that I can access them from time to time, but not have they use up all the space on the IPad? Sounds like the cloud is out...

  • I have an iPhone 4S-whenever I take a picture using the flash, all I get is a white blob-pictures without the flash are fine.  I tried using different cases, thinking a bounce off the case might be the problem, but the same thing happens.  Any suggestions

  • All of sudden my iphone 4s any picture I take outside I cannot forward via email or text and I can only see it, in the camera roll. When I try to open the picture full screen it is blank. Anyone have any ideas to fix it?

    all of sudden my iphone 4s any picture I take outside I cannot forward via email or text and I can only see it, in the camera roll. When I try to open the picture full screen it is blank. Anyone have any ideas to fix it?

    Close out of the camera app, double tap the home button and completely close out of the app.
    Then do a reset, no data loss.  Hold down the home/sleep button together until you see the apple logo and then release, then wait for the phone to boot back up.
    Then check your camera roll again.

  • Verizon's iPhone 4S is dropping the first call almost all the time?

    Hi.
    I have a verizon iPhone 4S.
    Everytime I make the first call to someone, I don't hear anything.
    When I end that call and try calling again, it works.
    This has been happening almost all the time.
    I tried letting the phone app turned on but it doesn't solve the problem.
    I'm not sure if other carrier's iPhones are having this problem.
    Does anyone know what the problem is to this?
    Thank you very much.

    I tried letting the phone app turned on but it doesn't solve the problem.
    What does that mean?
    Try a reset by pressing the home and sleep buttons until you see the Apple logo, ignoring the slider. Takes about 5-15 secs of button holding and you won't lose any data or settings.
    If still a problem, restore.
    If still a problem, take it in to Apple for a warranty replacement.
    IMO, you'll probably end up taking it in to Apple but the other steps are worth trying.
