  • Apple says "iCloud storage is full" when it is not

    I just got email from Apple <[email protected]> saying "You have now exceeded your iCloud storage".  But the bar on any of my devices as well as on my Mac says I have 2.9 Gb available of 5 Gb!  The individual imtes (Backup, data, email) only adds to ~2Gb so 2.9Gb free sounds correct. Something does not compute.  Any ideas?  The message is pretty stern: "As a result, you will not be able to send or receive new email messages with your iCloud email address until you free up storage space or buy more storage."

    I just got the same e-mail.  My account seems to be sending and receiving emails without issue.  I think it was an error.  I received a warning and an exceeds e-mail in the same minute, but am only using 20% of my allocation.
    I'm not giving it much credence. 

  • I got a message saying that my startup disk is full and I need to delete files.   What files and where can I find them?

    I got a message saying that my startup disk is full and I need to delete files.  I don't know where to fined the files I need to delete and don't understand how my disk can be full.  Can someone help me with this?

    To see how much disk space is available ...
    Click your Apple menu  top left in your screen. From the drop down menu click About This Mac > More Info > Storage
    Make sure there's at least 15% free disk space.
    Photos, video, documents, etc. all require disk space.

    Following a message saying that my Startup disc was full and advising me to delete some files, I deleted my trash but then apps started to fail. When I tried to log on again, all I got was a blank screen and a cursor, so I am unable to delete any more files. I am a Mac Book Pro virgin, help

    How much free space do you actually have? Go to the Apple menu and select About This Mac... More Info... and click on the Storage tab. You should see something like this...
    This will show you how much free space you have and what's taking up all the space on your hard drive. You may need to backup and trash some seldom used files, applications, etc. You have to drag them into the Trash and empty the trash to regain the space. A general rule of thumb is that you should have about 15% of your hard drive storage free.
    Good luck,

  • Verizon Cloud storage is full

    A couple of months ago, I transferred my backed up files to Verizon Cloud.  I must admit, cloud storage is something I really am a novice about...have always used actual storage on a drive.  Love the idea of using the cloud but can't quite say I understand the process, security risks, etc.  Anyway, my storage is full and I'm not at the point where I want to upgrade the amount of storage space I have.  I believe this being full is causing some minor problems when using my laptop (I have the Verizon Cloud app loaded on my laptop).  I've tried going in to manage folders, move pictures, etc to free up some open space by moving them to hard storage but just can't seem to figure out how to do so.
    Not even sure if everything on the cloud is from my mobile devices or if I have the laptop set up to store on the cloud as well.  I'd like to get to the point where I have free space on my cloud without deleting and losing any of my pictures.
    Any thoughts?

        Hello RobnDawn, making sure your information is secure and saved is our top priority! The information saved in the cloud will be from your mobile devices. You can save outside files from your laptop in the cloud if you drag and drop the files in the desktop manager.

  • When I connect my iPhone (5s) to my computer it says that it's storage is full and that I have over 4,000 pictures even though I have deleted all of them. It won't allow me to add music or anything else either because it says my phone is full.

    When I connect my iPhone (5s) to my computer it says that it's storage is full and that I have over 4,000 pictures even though I have deleted all of them. It won't allow me to add music or anything else either because it says my phone is full. I have restarted my phone and the computer multiple times, but it still tells me that my phone is full.

    iPod touches or any iDevices from Apple sync only to one computer. If you sync to a different computer, all your music will be replace with the music from the new computer's iTunes. If the music were purchased from iTunes, you can re-download them again otherwise the music on iPod touch will be deleted. Do you have iTunes backup? 

  • I got a message saying this ipad cannot be backed up because there is not enough icloud storage available but when i try to close it it didnt gone looks like it got hang

    i got a message saying this ipad cannot be backed up because there  is not enough icloud storage available but when i try to close it it didnt close its looks like get hang up

    Try this now.
    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.

  • My Macbook air keeps getting a message saying that the startup disk is full. I don't have picture, music, or movies on it. Im not sure whats wrong with it.

    My Macbook air keeps getting a message saying that the startup disk is full. I don't have picture, music, or movies on it. Im not sure whats wrong with it.

    The first step is to check and see how much space really is there.  From the desktop right click on the drive in the upper right corner (at least it's there by default) and select "Get Info" to see how much space it reports as free.
    It's not just media files that eat up disk space, though they are often a major contributor.  Do you happen to be running one of the virtual machine programs (Parallels or VMWare Fusion)?  When you create a guest drive there you normally have a fairly decent amount of disk space dedicated to it and that can fill the drive.
    As well, a quick fix that may buy you some time is to empty the trash if you've not done so recently.  Click on the trash folder in your dock and then in the window that comes up select the option to empty the trash.
    If you can free up some space, there are programs that will help you find what files and directories are using disk space.  I've used Space Gremlin (in the App store) for that sort of thing, though there others.  If you run that sort of utlity you'll get some idea about what is really eating up the drive space.

  • Received an email from iCloud telling me my storage is full ,when i go to storage

    Received an email from icloud telling me that my storage is full, when i go to storage on my iphone it tells me i have 4.4 GB available, what next???

    Does it say disabled for security reasons or just disabled? If it just says disabled, go to the iTunes billing team's support site and email off the error, include your billing address for the account and the last 4 digits of your credit card and they will fix it up within 24-48 hours.

  • My iTunes will not start.  The box on the error message APSDaemon.exe,  And message says "This application failed to start because MSVC80.dll was not found.  Reinstalling may fix."  I did the reinstall and I get the same error.

    My iTunes will not start.  The box on the error message APSDaemon.exe,  And message says "This application failed to start because MSVC80.dll was not found.  Reinstalling may fix."  I did the reinstall and I get the same error.  The error first happened after I approved the an iTurns update.

    Same problem today. Took five times to reinstall without any error messages. Apple has posted a way to fix and you should follow their's first. I finally got to upldate correctly by doing their fix but with one difference. I did the following:
    1) Went to the C:\program files (x86)\iTunes and C:\program files\iTunes folders and moved every file ending in .dll to the desktop (even if two files in same location had the same name, just replace)
    2) Restarted computer and still got error message
    3) Uninstalled all apple programs possible in the following order......itunes, apples software update, apple mobile device support, bonjour, and apple application support.....all performed using the microsoft control panel
    4) put all the .dll files on the desktop in the trash and emptied (this is a step apple support did not specifically put in their fix but for a final try I wanted to delete everything apple).
    5) Restarted computer.
    6) Re-installed itunes from apple website
    No error messages during re-install and was able to open shortcut in one try. Even updated my ipad to make sure everything was working.

  • HT4847 my iphone storage is full and I do not have enough storage for upgrades or to take photos/videos, etc. My icloud is on for photos/videos. Can I safely delete them on my phone to make storage room knowing I can access them on my icloud?

    My iphone storage is full and I do not have enough storage for upgrades or to take more photos/videos, download apps, etc. I do have my photos/videos ON for icloud sync but not sure if I can safely delete them from my iphone to make room. And if I can delete them from my phone how do I access them on my icloud? I logged in for the first time and do not see where to access photos/videos?

    You can't just store photos on icloud.  They can be included as part of a backup or when using photo stream to sync photos from one device to another, but 1) photo stream keeps photos for up to 30 days after which they are deleted from the servers, and 2) never rely on a backup to icloud as a way of storing photos.  (When photos are deleted from the device, they are no longer on recent backups, and older backups get deleted in short time.)
    When it comes to photos, users should sync them to a computer for archiving.  Then they can delete the photos from the device, as the computer will have copies.
    Photos in backups on icloud cannot be viewed on icloud.
