My iPhone continues to alert me that my storage is nearly full, but in Usage, it's states I have 14gb free. Any advice?

Hey!
I have a 32gb iPhone 5S, updated to 8.1.3. I keep getting pop-up alerts that my phone storage is nearly full, but when I go to Settings>General>Usage it claims I've used 12.4gb and have 14.4gb available. Any music that I've bought and downloaded from iTunes through my phone has been erased, put into the cloud, and can only be streamed on wifi.
Unfortunately, my Mac's harddrive died recently, so I don't have a way to sync my iPhone until I purchase a new desktop.
Any suggestions on what might be going on? Thanks!

If you go to Settings > General > Usage check both the "Storage" section which has Used, Available, and Manage Storage and immediately below that is the iCloud section which has Total Storage, Available, and Manage Storage. I'm guessing that the alert you are getting is referring to your iCloud storage. If so, the following may help: Manage your iCloud storage - Apple Support

    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 recently bought an iPhone 5s from boost mobile I thought service would be decent but it really *****. I'm wondering if there is any way I can switch carriers maybe to us cellular seeing that they recently added new prepaid plans

    I recently bought an iPhone 5s from boost mobile I thought service would be decent but it really *****. I'm wondering if there is any way I can switch carriers maybe to us cellular seeing that they recently added new prepaid plans and have good service in my area.  I do know boost operates with sprint but  not sure what I can do because having an expensive phone with crappy service really *****

    Sorry, but Boost reportedly does not offer unlocking for iPhones, so you're stuck with them unless you can return the iPhone for a refund and cancel the service, or can sell the iPhone to someone who could use it with Boost.
    Regards.

  • My iPhone got wet in the rain. Everything works fine. But The flash stays on even when no battery. Any help?

    A liquid damaged iPhone 4 can be replaced by Apple for $149.
    By the way... and electrical short can be dangerous, creating a fire or explosion hazard. You can see the short that's affecting the flash... It's the short you may not see that's affecting the battery and/or charging circuitry that's the problem.
    Get it replaced.

  • How do you remove back up data from the memory storage? my storage data states that i have over 80gb of data used for back ups and i dont know why as i use a external hard drive as a time machine .now my 250gb flash storage is nearly full

    how do you remove back up data from the memory storage? my storage data states that i have over 80gb of data used for back ups and i dont know why as i use a external hard drive as a time machine .now my 250gb flash storage is nearly full.. HELP!

    When Time Machine backs up a portable Mac, some of the free space will be used to make local snapshots, which are backup copies of recently deleted files. The space occupied by local snapshots is reported as available by the Finder, and should be considered as such. In the Storage display of System Information, local snapshots are shown as  Backups. The snapshots are automatically deleted when they expire or when free space falls below a certain level. You ordinarily don't need to, and should not, delete local snapshots yourself. If you followed bad advice to disable local snapshots by running a shell command, you may have ended up with a lot of data in the Other category. Ask for instructions in that case.
    See this support article for some simple ways to free up storage space.

  • I Have a Ipod Classic that all my music is on. After my previous computer crashed I have not had any of my music able to be transfered to the new computer from the Ipod. Is there a way to do this

    I Have a Ipod Classic that all my music is on.
    After my previous computer crashed I have not had any of my music able to be transfered to the new computer from the Ipod.
    Is there a way to do this?

    Unfortunately, unless you have a backup and can restore the iTunes library to the new computer, you are stuck with the current state of the iPod. This is one of those things that makes doing backups so important.
    Unless your music is all purchased from iTunes (not from your own CD's that you imported into iTunes and then downloaded to the iPod), you will be able to re-download all your iTunes store music back to the iPod when you install iTunes on the new computer. When you first attach the iPod to the new computer and new iTunes the first time it will tell you that this iPod is synced with another iTunes library and let you initialize the iPod (which will erase everything on the iPod - so don't do this unless you don't care about the stuff on the iPod now).
    I've seen 3rd party apps in the past that will let you copy music/content from iPod to computer and bypass iTunes, but not sure if they still exist as this was several years ago.
    good luck

  • I was using raw & my hard disk nearly full. When I downloaded pix, I got message that said hard disk nearly full. My pix downloaded into 2 folders. When I merged them about 50 disappeared. Where can I find them? Using MacBookPro, IPhoto 9.5.1

    Where were you downloading the to,   iPhoto, a folder on the Desktop, where? Are they still on the camera's memory card?  If you deleted them from the card and haven't used the card since they can be recovered with recovery software like  MediaRECOVER. You can download the demo version to verify they can be recovered before purchasing it.  Other similar apps can be found at MacUpdate.com by searching for "photo recovery" or similar terms.

    My iPhone 5 will not sync as i need iTunes 10.7 but this will not download as i have OS 10.5.8

    You need to upgrade your OS to this:

    From there you upgrade iTunes, & you'll be able to sync your phone.

    My daughter has had her Razr for about 9 months now.  About two weeks ago she picked up her phone in the morning on her way to school when she noticed two cracks, both starting at the camera lens. One goes completely to the bottom and the other goes sharply to the side. She has never dropped it and me and my husband went over it with a fine tooth comb. We looked under a magnifying glass and could no find any reason for the glass to crack. Not one ding, scratch or bang. Our daughter really takes good care of her stuff, but we still wanted to make sure before we sent it in for repairs. Well we did and we got a reply from Motorola with a picture of the cracks saying this was customer abuse and that it is not covered under warranty. Even though they did not find any physical damage to back it up. Well I e-mailed them back and told them I did a little research and found pages of people having the same problems. Well I did not hear from them until I received a notice from Fed Ex that they were sending the phone back. NOT FIXED!!! I went to look up why and guess what there is no case open any more for the phone. It has been wiped clean. I put in the RMA # it comes back not found, I put in the ID #, the SN# and all comes back not found. Yet a day earlier all the info was there. I know there is a lot more people like me and all of you, but they just don't want to be bothered so they pay to have it fix, just to have it do it again. Unless they have found the problem and only fixing it on a customer pay only set up. I am furious and will not be recommending this phone to anyone. And to think I was considering this phone for my next up grade! NOT!!!!

  • I can not get several apps to load on my i-pod touch and I even restored it back to factory.  The message I get is that I need iOS 4.3, but i-tunes tells me I already have the latest version.

    You can't install any application which requires iOS 4.3 or newer on a first or second generation iPod touch. If you still have a copy of that application compatible with iOS 3.1.3 or 4.2.1, import it into the iTunes library and sync it.

  • Apple sends notification that my icloud account is full but I have lots of free space

    Has anyone recieved erroneous notifications to upgrade your icloud account? I got an email today which said my account was full but I actually have lot's of free storage.  The thing that worry me the most is that the email said my devices could not be backup anymore unless I free or purchase more space.  I wanted to contact support to get an explanation of why I got this email.  I try to contact support via email for about 15 minutes till I finally gave up because I could not find a link to send an email to Apple support.  Does anyone have this link? I am realy dissapointed. I have two macbook pros, one ipad, two iphones, 27" cinema display, time capsule, itunes match, 30GB of icloud storage, and all the Apple apps.  After all the money I spend on Apple I have the expectation that I should be able to contact them by email.

    Slight water damage on electronic equipment is like being slightly pregnant
    It either is or it isn't and your iPhone is water damaged
    Since you that turned it on prior to drying it the damage is done now
    Take to Apple and pay for a replacement
