My new ipad cannot synced because there is not enough space

My new ipad first tried to download all my photo, I have too many, I reset to just save last 30 days, Show I have about 5.5 gb but still getting message not enough room to sync? What do I need to do?

Youha e to look at all the stuff you are trying to have on your iPad. There is only 16, 32, or 64 GB of space on the iPad. Movies, apps, and photos take up the most space but books and other files require space as well. Check all your usage and do not add what you do not need.

    It generally means - just using random numbers for examples - the iTunes on your computer holds 45 gig of content, you have a 16 gig iPad which has 13 gig of free space and the content just won't fit.
    Easy solutions. go into iTunes and 'manually manage' your content. I believe this is in the main summary tab for your device (connect your device, click on the icon in iTunes to access controls for your iPad
    You may also need to choose to manually control content in both the music and movie tabs.

    the manual will have more specific info for syncing and controlling content

  • HT1296 Have a problem with syncing. I get this message: The ipod Bill's Ipod" cannot be synced because there is not enough space to hold all of the items in the iTunes library (additional 2.4GB required) I don't understand as I have much more space than 2

    I recently ran into a problem with syncing my ipod touch to itunes on my Windows 7 pc. It had previously been synced to my older laptop
    and I wanted to change to my newer Windows 7 laptop's itunes library that I had already been syncing with.
    Anyway, I started seeing this message that prevents my from syncing:
    The iPod "Bill's iPod" cannot be synced because there is not enough free space to hold all of the items in the iTunes library
    (additional 2.48 GB required)  
    Not sure if it is talking about my iPod free space or my PC itunes library free space. Either way I have 11.0 GB free space available
    on my iPod and 412 GB free space available on my Windows 7 PC.
    How do I handle this problem?   Please help!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
    Thanks

    It is saying that the iPod does not have enough free storage to sync all the items yu have selected to sync to the iPod. You need 2.48 GB more free on the iPod. You need either to select less to sync or delete some content form the iPod.

  • Cannot sync because there is not enough free space to hold all of the items in the iTunes library

    On my last attempt to sync my iPod Touch with my laptop I got the following message:
    The iPod "*******" cannot be synced because there is not enough free space to hold all of the items in the iTunes library (additional 3.18 GB required) 
    My iPod is the basic 8 GB version with 6.8 GB capacity.    I have cleard most of my photos off the iPod.   I have 536 MB available. 
    How do I get the iPod to sync?

    I found it!   There is a note in the help pages.   Basically turn off all sync options in iTunes.  Apply that change.   Then go back and turn sync's back on.  WARNING..   Take note of how your sync's are set up before you turn them off.

  • The iPad cannot be synced because there is not enough free space to hold all of the items in the iTunes librar

    Hi,
    I know similar cases were posted here but I did not find something that matched my case:
    Here is the message I got:
    The iPad cannot be synced because there is not enough free space to hold all of the items in the iTunes library (1 MB required, 4.29 GB available).
    Obviously I have 1M space if I have 4.29GB of space.
    I do not have any music or photos
    I just updated the current apps I have and did an synced several new apps with a total of about 500M (which is far less then the free ~4GB I have)
    Any ideas how to solve this?
    Thank you

    You have seem similar instances of this, but have you tried anything suggested in those discussions?  I would quit ITunes, reboot your computer, reset the iPad and then try again. I would also close all apps on the iPad before resetting the device. When you try the sync again, use a different USB port on your computer.
    I Know this seems to be an no brainer, but make sure that you didn't accidentally select more content to sync than the iPad can hold
    In order to close apps, you have to drag the app up from the multitasking display. Double tap the home button and you will see apps lined up going left to right across the screen. Swipe to get to the app that you want to close and then swipe "up" on the app preview thumbnail to close it.
    In order to reset your iPad, hold down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple logo appears on the screen after which time you can release the buttons and let the iPad start up.

    If you haven't changed your sync preferences, meaning that you are not trying to add more content from the last time that you synced with iTunes, try quitting iTunes, restart your computer and then try again.
    If you are trying to add more content to the iPad than what you had before, you can only use so much of the available storage capacity that is left on the device. You probably need to leave about 10% of the space free so if you have a 16GB iPad, you might not have enough space left to sync that content that you are trying to sync.

  • The iPad cannot be synced because there is not enough free space to hold all of the items in the iTunes library (additional 2.53 GB required).

    I purchased some children's books from iTunes on my Mac computer and then tried to sync to my iPad and received the note that " The iPad cannot be synced because there is not enough free space to hold all of the items in the iTunes library (additional 2.53 GB required)."
    I do not know what steps to take to be able to free up space so I can sync these e-books to my iPad.  I do not know how to find the iTunes library on the iPad to identify what I would need to delete.
    Thanks for your guidance.

    How Do I Get Rid Of The “Other” Data Stored On My iPad Or iPhone?
    http://tinyurl.com/85w6xwn
    With an iOS device, the “Other” space in iTunes is used to store things like documents, settings, caches, and a few other important items. If you sync lots of documents to apps like GoodReader, DropCopy, or anything else that reads external files, your storage use can skyrocket. With iOS 5, you can see exactly which applications are taking up the most space. Just head to Settings > General > Usage, and tap the button labeled Show All Apps. The storage section will show you the app and how much storage space it is taking up. Tap on the app name to get a description of the additional storage space being used by the app’s documents and data. You can remove the storage-hogging application and all of its data directly from this screen, or manually remove the data by opening the app. Some applications, especially those designed by Apple, will allow you to remove stored data by swiping from left to right on the item to reveal a Delete button.

    The iPad “Grant” cannot be synced because there is not enough free space to hold all of the selected items (additional 5.67 GB required).
    What do I do?

    I believe the reference is to space on your hard drive, not on your iPhone.
    Freeing Up Space on The Hard Drive
    See Lion's Storage Display.
    You can remove data from your Home folder except for the /Home/Library/ folder.
    Visit The XLab FAQs and read the FAQ on freeing up space on your hard drive.
    Also see Freeing space on your Mac OS X startup disk.
    See Where did my Disk Space go?.
    See The Storage Display.
    You must Empty the Trash in order to recover the space they occupied on the hard drive.
    You should consider replacing the drive with a larger one. Check out OWC for drives, tutorials, and toolkits.

  • IPod touch cannot be synced because there is not enough free space to hold all of the items in the iTunes Library

    Hi, I have just transferred my whole iTunes library from my old computer to my new one and am trying to sync my iPod to the new one. However I get an error message saying "iPod touch cannot be synced because there is not enough free space to hold all of the items in the iTunes Library (additional 5.38GB required). I currently have 8.5GB free on my iPod so I don't understand why it cannot sync.

    Hey Georgiarose94, If what's going on, is what I think it is, when you sync the information it's over written, it can take 2 to 3 times more space the get the info on your iPod, once it's there the info only occupies the space it needs. Kind if of like moving, when you first step in the room with boxes of stuff there's no room. But after you get everything put away all is well. If you haven't already, connect your iPod to your computer, from your iPod Summary page, go down to Options and check reduce bit rate to (select 128 kbps). (Wording maybe a little different). Will greatly reduce memory space needed on your iPod, and you really do not hear the difference in sound quality. Other option, go to music and select manual so you can pick which music you place on the iPod. You need to reduce by 5.38GB of information to finish your download. Hope this helps. Cheers.

  • Question I have a dilemma . I added a lot of songs in my iTunes now when I synced my ipod this message appear "Elma's ipod cannot be synced because there is not enough free space to hold all the items in the iTunes library (additiona

    I addesd a lot of songs in my itunes, now when I synced my ipod this message appear "elma's ipod cannot be synced because there is not enough free space to hold all the items in the itunes library (additional 382m is required). Then I uncheck a lot of song and synced my ipod again same message appeared. Do I need to buy a new ipod with more memories? Somebody told me to check apply after I unchecked some of the songs but I cannot find the word APPLY. please help I'm not a very technical person.

    The Sync button becomes the Apply button, if you change the iPod's settings in iTunes.  If you are only unchecking songs in the iTunes music library, you click on the Sync button.
    When you select the iPod in iTunes, you see the iPod's Summary screen on the main part of the iTunes window.  There is a checkbox there for Sync only checked songs.  Did you check that checkbox?  If you want iTunes to ignore the songs you unchecked when syncing your iPod, that setting needs to be enabled.  If you change that setting, you'll see the the Sync botton has changed to Apply.  Click Apply.
    That method of unchecking songs works, but it may become annoying over time, as you need to uncheck more and more songs.  If you want advice on some other more convenient ways to make it work, you can post back.

  • "The iPod ... cannot be synced because there is not enough free space.."

    Error Message:
    "The iPod... cannot be synced because there is not enough free space to hold all of the items in the iTunes library (additional 21.62 GB required)."
    I moved my iTunes library FROM a Win 7 32bit HD to a new Win 7 32bit HD.
    On the old HD  iTunes  uses 145GB of HD space. 
    On the new HD iTunes uses  145GB of HD space.
    On both instances of iTunes I have selected "Convert higher bit rate songs to 128 kbps AAC"
    My iTouch is a 3rd gen. 64GB unit.
    In the past I would only take 75% of the available space. Now I am short 22GB.
         What am I missing?
    TIA,

    Appears to be fixed.
    Moved all music recorded at 128bit or less to different location.
    Moved video files to different location.
    Synced sections of iTunes collection individually: Only Music, then Podcasts, etc.
    Seems to be working fine.  Apps also came over without changes.
    ????  Only thing missing is my PLAYLISTS.
    ????    Someone know where they reside on my old HD list and why they did not come over?
