More storage on iCloud

The only things I have backing up on iCloud are pictures, calendar, and contacts. I deleted all of my pictures from photostream on my iPhone and I moved all of my pictures from iCloud into another folder on my PC but it's still saying my iCloud does not have enough storage for backup.  Any ideas how else I can make more storage on my iCloud without purchasing more storage?  Seems like if I deleted my photostream on my iPhone and removed the pictures from my photostream on my PC it would make more room.  ???

The only apps I have for iCloud are my photostream, calendar and my contacts.  I deleted all of the photos in my photostream but it did not give me any more storage space.  Before I deleted the photos it would not back up and showed it was almost full.  I thought it would free up some space once I deleted the over 100 photos from my photostream and on my iCloud on my PC.  That's why it does not make sense to me.

  • I have my own icloud account separate from my family's apple ID for itunes. I need more storage for icloud...do I have to pay a separate $20/ month to get more storage or does the $20 include all members of the plan?

    Welcome to Apple Support Communities
    If your iCloud account uses your family's Apple ID, you will pay $20/year for all your family members. If your iCloud account uses a different Apple ID than your family's Apple ID, you will pay only for you

  • TS4009 i bought more storage from iclouds and it is not going to the storage please help me!!!

    i bought more storage from iclouds and its not showing that i have more storage what do i do????

    What do you mean by "its not showing that i have more storage"?
    The storage you but on iCloud should show on iCloud and not on your device.
    There is no way to increase the amount of storage on an iPhone short of selling the old one and buying a new one with more storage.

  • Purchase More Storage on iCloud

    Been trying to purchase more storage on iCloud, but no success.
    On the ios devices (iphone4s and ipad2) when trying to buy more storage 50GB $100 per year option, my apple id password is asked.
    After submitting, it says completing purchase but finally "An unknown error has occured" window pops up.

    Hi
    I have the same problem. I discovered by using the iCloud control panel on my desktop computer allows me to get around the problem. You might want to explore that option.

  • HT4847 I purchased more storage from icloud and it won't download on my iPhone

    I purchased more icloud storage because mine ran out from photo capacity and it's not adding the extra storage. Should I repurchase or troubleshoot? Anyone know how to help?

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    Purchasing additional storage in iCloud, does not give you additional storage on your mobile device.

  • My ipad2 and iphone4s won't back up.  I even bought more storage on icloud?

    My ipad2 and iphone4s won't back up.  I have even bought more storage?  Not sure what to do next?

    If you no longer need the backups, you can delete them by going to Settings>iCloud>Storage & Backup>Manage Storage, tap the name of device you want to delete the backup for (under Backups at the top), then tap Delete Backup.  This will permanently delete it from your account, freeing up the storage it occupies.

    I have bought one movie from iTunes - great! Tried to purchase another and hit with no enough storage.  Bought extra storage from iCloud and still unable to buy movie due to limited storage - how do I store the movie to iCloud to view?

    Thanks...so the movies I bought are saved to iTunes on my PC?
    Yes, they should be.

    If I erase one movie from my iPad and buy another I'll be able to retrieve from the iTune on my PC?
    Yes, unless there is a major difference in file size for the two movies.

  • I can't download any more on my ipad due to my icloud storage being full.  The ipad came with the icloud free storage but now it seems that i have to pay for more storage on icloud.  Do i have to?  What if i dont want icloud?

    The ipad is my son's so he doesn't really need the icloud as he only uses his ipad to play apps.  The ipad seems to have a lot of unused capacity but it won't let him download any more apps without paying for additional icloud storage.  Do we have to use icloud or can we just use the ipad without icloud and keep downloading apps until the ipad capacity is full?

    Should be able to. I dont' use iCloud and I have no issue downloading apps.
    you may need to be patient though, from what some have said, it may be that the app store is a bit swamped and busy with all the new iPad owners.

  • Can I use an iTunes gift card to buy more storage for iCloud?

    I have a few gift cards and I feel as though there has to be a way you can buy more iCloud storage with those gift cards

    This is the forum for iTunes Match. You will probably get a better answer from the appropriate iCloud forum <https://discussions.apple.com/community/icloud/>.

  • How can i get more storage in icloud for my ipad 3 retina display?

    i have a ipad 3 with the retina dispaly and i was using my ipad 3 as a backup storage for my ipod. now my ipad3 will not let me power on. it says not enough storage, this ipad can't be backed up because there is not enough iCloud storage available. you can manage your storage in settings.

          Thank you so much,
          In terrible need of help.

    Have you tried restarting or resetting your iPad?
    Restart: Press On/Off button until the Slide to Power Off slider appears, select Slide to Power Off and, after the iPad shuts down, then press the On/Off button until the Apple logo appears.
    Reset: Press the Home and On/Off buttons at the same time and hold them until the Apple logo appears (about 10 seconds). Ignore the "Slide to power off"
