My phone says i dont have enough storage
I am trying to upgrade to iOS 7.1, but I am getting the message that the update cannot be installed because it requires at least 1.9GB of storage. How do I fix this or get more storage?

iCloud may try to coax you into buying more, I'd suggest just trying to delete some of your old stuff that you don't use, if you use all of your stuff then just stay at the update you're at, there's nothing great about these new updates man. Hope this helps.
Well the SSL bug is corrected for instance.

back up from icloud to new device is not working as it is saying that I dont have enough storage, when I am only trying to use 3GB out of my 5GB allowance???
I may misunderstand your post - you "backup TO icloud" or restore from icloud to a new device. Not sure which of these you mean.
If backing up TO icloud, the problem may be that there's not enough storage on your device, not icloud, as a device needs a good bit of storage to create the backup.
If restoring from icloud to a new device and you get the error, the storage referenced must be that on the device, although that doesn't seem possible, since a device has more memory than 5GB. -
IPhone 4s, How do I do a backup on the computer? Phone says I dont have enough space to do it on it.
iPhone 4s.
How do I do a backup on the computer? My phone says there isnt enough space to do it on the phone. It keeps telling me "phone needs to be backed up". Ive looked at iTunes, iCloud... Im not sure where to go to make it do a back up.
Also, I used to be able to take about over 1,000 pictures with a few videos. Well now, it only allows me about 312 pictures, with one video, then says its "FULL" and turns the camera off. I copy the pictures to my computer and delete them so I have room. But its REALLY annoying how I can now only take about 312 pictures.
Any Help would be sooo appreciated!!
Thanks!The message probably means you don;t have enopugh space on iCloud to backup the Phone.
iCloud has a 5GB limit. If your backup is more than that then it won't be able to backup.
As far as backing up to your computer, just connect it to your computer, and assuming you have iTunes you can just click on the Backup button in the summary page for your Phone in iTunes.
You can follow the instructions posted by Ramzee.
As to why you can take less photos, probably because you've used more space up with different things. so there's only so much space left for your Photos.
You can look in Settings->General->Usage, to see how much space you have available as well as the App that's taking up the most space.
Also when connected to iTunes in your computer Check how large the "other" category is.
If its more that 1 to 1.2GB then you may have some corruption.

Sotware update says i dont have enough storage
I've got an iphone 4s 16bg and the latest software update 7.1.1 says ' this update cannot be installed because it requires at least 1.8GB of storage. You can make more storage available by deleting items in Usage Settings'. This is crazy as my music takes up 9.2GB and I don't have that many apps on there really!
Any ideas would be helpful. Do I really need this update??Hey dechange,
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
You can see how much room is being taken using this article, and how to manage what is on the device with the second article.

The amount of space taken by an app depends on the app's purpose; complex or graphically intense apps usually take more space than simpler apps.

i need 1.1 gb to download fifa 12 and says i have 2.2 gb availanle in usage but says i dont have enough room to download it
The iPod requires more than twice the file downlooad size in order to downoad and install an app. You need to free up storage space as the mesage says.

I cant download updated software, says i dont have enough space
i am trying to download the software update, but i says i dont have enough space, says i need 2 gb and i have 32 gb left on my computer
Is the message saying:
Not enough storage
Not enough/low memory?
For the former delete some items from the iPod.
For the latter.double click the home button and close all the apps in the recently used dock. Then power off and then back on the iPod. This frees up memory. -
Hi,
Im trying to download a movie from itunes to my ipad 2 but it says i dont have enough memory. I have 13G of space on icloud but cant figure out how to down load it to icloud. Can anyone advise please.Hi back,
Icloud cannot be used to increase internal memory of ipads, otherwise nobody would buy more expensive 32, 64, 128 gigabyte versions. Hype with "movies in the cloud" is more of itunes store, keeping movies available for you in order to download on any device. That does not go against your storage in the cloud, though.
So if you go to your computer and you purchased movie ( not rented ) you can download and watch.
There is something else to pay attention to, your ipad (if I am not mistaken) is not capable to run HD movies, make sure you do buy Standard Definition, and they will take less space on ipad. -
My ipod wont let me download a game it tells me i dont have enough storage when i have more then enough
To download and install an app the iPod needs storage available equal to about three times the file download size.
If you sync from your iTunes library less storage available is required.
Does the app/iPod meet this? -
i am trying to upgrade to yosemite (for imac) from version 10.6.8 but even though i have 70gb available on my hard drive it wont let me upgrade because it says i dont have enough memory!! what can i do??
Install more RAM in the computer; the Mac needs to have at least 2GB of RAM and should have 4GB or more first.

i need some help i have just got the Mac OS X as i have recently been given a mac with 1.83 GHz Intel core 2 duo and on 10.4.11. However it says i dont have enough ram how can i solve this?
http://store.apple.com/us/mac/mac-accessories/memory
Other than Apple there are only two vendors with which I have personal experience and can recommend: Crucial and OWC. People have reported problems with many other brands, yet Crucial and OWC's prices are as good as any you are likely to find. Patriot is another brand recommended by ASC contributors but I have no experience with them.
Go to Crucial and download the little app that examines your system and recommends RAM upgrade options.
Their prices are good but don't have to buy memory from them - determine what you need and buy it from Crucial or OWC / MacSales. -

TS4009 my iphone says i dont have enough space
my phone says i dont have any space to back it up and i deleted everything off my icloud and it still says it but when i plug it into the computer it says i have a lot of space

everytime I go to save my movie or export it a message comes up saying I dont have enough room and to close my project and reopen it, will I lose all of my work if I do what it says? how do I resolve this?
I've never have this problem before, but if you are really worried you can go to finder -> Movies -> iMovie Project.
And then you can copy that project and put it in your desktop first. If you really did lost your project, you can still put it back. It will play perfectly if your events aren't damaged -
HT201269 itunes said i dont have enough storage on new phone to restore from backup
i bought a new iphone 5s and want to restore from the backup from my old iphone 4. I backed up the old phone to my computer with itunes. When i try to restore it a message " not enough storage space available on phone" pops up. Is there a way to delete apps from the old backup to free some space? help please!
You cannot modify the backup once it is done. Did you purchase a new phone with a capacity smaller than the one that you backed up?
