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.
- Restore from backup. See:
iOS: How to back up
- Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.

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

Trying to update phone and keeps saying not enough storage how do i fix it

I have deleted almost every picture off my phone cause it kept telling me not enough storage. I am trying to update, but it won't let me . It keeps saying not enough storage.... How do I fix this cause it should have plenty now !

Settings/General/About/Available will tell you how much free storage you have. From memory you need at least 1.4 GB or so to update to iOS 7 over WiFi (I strongly suggest you have more than that, 2-3 GB is safer for the iOS 7 upgrade).
If you have problems freeing up enough space on your phone then update it via iTunes instead, that's both more likely to work without issues and doesn't require all that free space on the phone to start with.

Reset it by holding the power and home buttons at the same time until you see the Apple logo, then release. You won't lose any data by doing this.

It says I cloud total storage 5.0 GB available 5.0 GB so whats the problem?

iCloud storage is for backups. It is not associated with space on your phone. You cannot buy more space for your phone. Check what you have on your phone and delete what you don't use or seldom use to get more space on your phone.

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."

ICloud Backup Issues on iPhone & iPad Air: NOT Enough Storage (5 GB)

I've been a user of the free 5 GB of storage since its inception without any problems. I was backing up data on my iPhone and 3rd gen. iPad on a regular basis and never ran into any issues.
I recently upgraded to an iPad Air and set it up using a restoration and it went off without a hitch. The very next day I started noticing these warnings that I was approaching my storage limit even though I had not really changed the amount of data on my phone or the Air. I don't download lots of apps and basically only update them when necessary. I use iTunes Match, so I stream my music from the cloud so I don't have audio files on any devices, with the exception of my iPhone for those times I don't have access to wi-fi -- and it's always been the same number of files/same size.
(The iPhone is showing 3.5 GB in use and the Air is showing 1.3 as of this post).
I do have a fair amount of photos in the iPhoto stream as I'm always snapping something, but not to the point of being obssessed. And I always am moving them into iPhoto/Aperture and deleting them frequently, so I'm not talking about thousands of photos being on either device at any time.
In other words, I'm like the average user when it comes to the amount of data on my devices -- and am not going overboard where it's at the point that I know I have to delete things to make room.
I've scrutinized the file sizes of everything I possibly can in the settings on both devices yet I'm still getting the warning that I don't have enough storage space. I find it hard to believe that something during the process of setting up the Air pushed my storage over the edge to where I actually need to purchase space because I just am not seeing any deviation from what I used to do before setting up the Air.
I deleted the 3rd gen. iPad backup as well as any other old backups from iCloud which are no longer relevant each and every single time I've upgraded any device. I don't have anyone else using these devices other than myself so no one is downloading apps, snapping pix, or doing anything which would add data. I did a quick glance at the forums to see that lots of people have this problem - so I'm wondering if it's some type of glitch?
My iPhone told me today that I had not backed up to iCloud in weeks - which I'm sure refers to the time right around I bought the Air - as I have my devices to auto backup when connected to wi-fi. The last backup according to settings was 5/6 -- while the Air was on 5/16.
This is very annoying as I don't want to have to buy the next level of storage just to rid myself of this message so I'd be interested to know what others have tried. Sure, I can just do a complete backup of all my devices to my computer -- which I do fairly regularly -- but it was always good to know that I had access to iCloud backups for those times I didn't hook things up to my MBP.
Does anyone have any suggestions as to things I can try to rid myself of this dreaded message? It pops up daily and I really would love to fix it. Thanks!

I think I figured it out. I went through my iPhone and turned off a lot of the apps that were slotted to backup and it appears to done the trick as the phone is backing up to iCloud.
The language needs to be broken down where it makes more sense of what's happening behind the scenes during these backups as I think it can be easily miscontrued that it's the data the various specific apps are using which is the issue at hand and not them apps themselves is what's causing the increase in size; some people may think that if they turn these apps off, they are deleting the apps from their devices so they leave them all switched on which ends up bumping up the size and ultimately eating up storage space.
I admit to not really paying attention to what the explanation was saying when I initially got the error message which made me initially post this. Now that I'm rationally thinking, I can see the problem of the disappearing space and am off to turn off a handful of apps on the Air to reduce the storage allotment even more

Screen shows not enough storage and wont allow me to click close or settings. Power off doesnt work either., Screen shows not enough storage and wont allow me to click close or settings. Power off doesnt work either.

Ipad is stuck with the pop up of:
Not enough storeage. This ipad cannot be backedup because there is not enough iCloud storage available. You can manage your storage in settings. Gives the option to click on close or settings. Neither option I can click on nor can I power off.

That behavior occurs from time to time. If you fail to backup your iPad with iCloud on a regular basis you may also get a message to that effect and that message may also freeze your screen and prevent you from using the iPad. When that happens, you have to do the same thing that you just did, reset/reboot the iPad.
You can prevent the "you haven't backed up this iPad" message from popping up by backing up on a regular basis. The only way that you can prevent the other message from popping up is to purchase more storage.
What can you do to prevent those messages from "freezing up" the iPad, As far as I know - nothing at all. It seems to be some type of quirk in the settings that affects some users from time to time. Read the "More Like This" box on the right. There is no setting that you are missing.

I upgraded my storage plan but one of my devices still shows not enough storage to download application.

I have upgraded storage plan because it kept telling me I did not have enough storage to download apps or take photos. Now it is still giving me that error message! Help!

Hi Tawkd,
Adding more iCloud storage will not help with your problem. What the error message is telling you is that you do not have enough physical storage on your actual device to be able to add more photos or apps. You need to go to Settings>General>Usage and at the very top under Storage, it will tell you how many GB you have used, and how many you have left.
You need to free up storage on your device by deleting some of the things which are taking up so much room.
Cheers,
GB

Ipad showing not enough storage in spite of extra storage on iCloud

A couple months ago I upgrade my iCloud storage and a few days ago I reupgraded because I kept getting the message "storage is almost full". But in spite of the reupgrading, I'm still getting that messages on my iPad 3. What do I do? I thought buying the extra storage on iCloud was supposed to resolve all that. This is despite showing that I have 20.3 GB of 25 GB available. Please help!!!!! Most of the space is used up by apps.

The iPad cannot be upgraded in any way. The storage capacity is all there can ever be on a particular iPad. The capacity of iCloud is for backup purposes and syncing purposes, it does not function as additional storage space for any devices.
Backing up the iPad assures you that content will not be lost if anything goes wrong such as a catastophic hardware failure.
If you are out of storage space on the iPad you don't have much choice, keeping that iPad, but to remove material and free up space. You can always backup everything, restore the iPad to new condition, and then restore selectively your material. Or sell it and buy one with larger storage so you have room for your content.
Probably doesn't sound to good to you but there honestly isn't anything you can do to incrase the capacity of your iPad.
