My pictures took up too much space on my phone so I deleted them. But my phone said I still don't have space but I deleted 3,000 pictures.
I even backed up my phone to a computer and synced it but it still says I'm using allmy space. Help

Hey JustinAlexa,
While this article doesn't cover the exact same issue, the troubleshooting steps within should apply and are worth a shot:

  • I don't want my music on my iPad as it takes up too much space, but I do want it on my iPhone and iPod touch.  How do it prevent it from going to iPad?

    How do I get my music only on my IPhone and iPod touch, but keep it off my iPad.

    If you're talking about stopping music purchased from the iTunes store automatically downloading to your iPad, go to Settings>iTunes and App Stores and under Automatic Downloads and turn Music to Off.  If your talking about syncing with iTunes, just uncheck Sync Music on the Music tab of your iTunes sync settings before syncing your iPad.

  • All pictures in Photos on Mac syncing with Photos on iPhone and taking up too much space

    Since I downloaded Photos on my MacBook Pro, all the pictures that I had in iPhotos are not showing up on Photos on my laptop AND my iPhone. I used to be able to choose which iPhoto albums to sync with my iPhone and would prefer to do that again. It is taking up way too much space to have them all synced to my phone. Any idea how to choose which pictures I want available on my phone???

    Before the migration to Photos on laptop, I would go to iTunes, Photos, Sync Photos, Selected Albums, and then choose the albums from iPhoto to sync to phone.
    Since I had the problem with all of the photos syncing to iPhone, I un-checked Sync, but they were all still showing up on iPhone.
    I just looked at iTunes and saw this message:
    When I looked last week, the "copy from _______" was not an option. Now I am able to choose the iPhoto albums that I want to sync just as I was before.
    I still don't know why they were syncing when I didn't have that option selected, but it appears Apple has fixed the issue I was having.
    I guess I will continue to use iPhoto rather than Photos on my laptop to avoid this issue again.
    Thank you for your help!!!!

  • What is the best way to manage my iPhoto, which is taking up too much space on my MacBook Pro?

    What is the best way to manage my iPhoto, which is taking up too much space on my MacBook Pro?
    Specifically, I'd like to keep some of my favorite pictures on the laptop while moving the rest to an external hard drive. Is there a way to tag just a few pictures inside an event/album as "favorite", while storing the rest in an EHD, but still keep them connected to the same event/album? I'd like to have just the favorite pictures on the laptop, but when I have the EHD connected,  be able to view all my pictures in the same place, and not have to browse through separate hard drives. Ideally, whether or not a picture is designated as "favorite" will determine where it resides.
    Is this at all possible?
    I have only 7 GB left on my HD and I'm desperately needing a solution!
    Thanks!

    You need two libraries to do this. One on the external with all your Photos. One on the internal with a subset - your favourites. You do it this way to make backing up easier - that is, back up the library with everything, so you're only backing up one.
    Make sure the drive is formatted Mac OS Extended (Journaled)
    1. Quit iPhoto
    2. Copy the iPhoto Library from your Pictures Folder to the External Disk.
    Now you have two full versions of the Library.
    3. On the Internal library, trash the Events/albums/photos you don't want there
    Now you have a full copy of the Library on the External and a smaller subset on the Internal
    Some Notes:
    As a general rule: when deleting photos do them in batches of about 100 at a time. iPhoto can baulk at trashing large numbers at one go.
    You can choose which Library to open: Hold down the option (or alt) key key and launch iPhoto. From the resulting menu select 'Choose Library'
    You can keep the Library on the external updated with new imports using iPhoto Library Manager

  • I selected manually manage music for my iTouch yet it keeps trying to sync to my entire music library.  I do not want that as it is taking up too much space.  How can I stop my iTouch from continuing to try and sync so I can manually manage my music?

    How do I get my iTouch to manually manage my music?  I selected manually manage, yet every time I hook my iTouch to my computer, it attempts to sync and load my entire library.  I do not want the entire library as it takes up too much space and I don't want all of those songs on my iTouch.  What am I missing?  What else can I do? 

    Oops, sorry, I think you probably already did what I suggested (turning off auto synch).
    I have the same question - how to synch, say, just one playlist.
    There is an option to synch only things that are checked. But everything (in every playlist and item, is checked and there doesn't appear to be a box to "uncheck all", nor can you check each playlist individually.

    The first time I synced my iphone 4 with my mac, I didn't realize that all of my photos from the iphoto library would transfer over to the phone (more than 3,000).   Now, I need to remove some, as they are taking up too much space.  I cannot figure out how to remove them from the phone.  I tried to uncheck boxes and sync again, but I get a message that there is no room on the iphone.  I've read as many articles as I can find, but still cannot manage this.  Thanks for any help.

    Open itunes, connect iphone, select what you want, sync

  • The iCloud Drive folder in Library/Mobile Documents is taking up way too much space on my startup disk.

    The iCloud Drive folder in Library/Mobile Documents is taking up way too much space on my startup disk
    I was hoping my files would stay in the cloud and not take up a ton of space on my machine (only a 128gb SSD).  But while performing an overnight time machine backup I came back to find a "Startup Disk Full" error message.  I only have about 20gb used locally but over 200gb in iCloud Drive at the moment.
    Is there a way to clear the cache so my files stay on iCloud and not hogging space on my SSD? Or a way to redirect this library to my 2nd hard drive?
    I'm using a 15" mid-2012 Macbook Pro with a 1TB hard drive and I've replaced the optical drive with a 128gb SSD for my OS (which is where my library is, hence the difficulty).
    Thank you!

    While puttering around after posting this I think I found my personal solution here: http://macs.about.com/od/diyguidesprojects/qt/Move-Your-Home-Folder-To-A-New-Loc ation.htm
    I'm just going to move my home folder to my 2nd internal 1TB hard drive to solve my problem.
    But my question remains, how can we minimize the amount of local space iCloud Drive ***** up?  I wanted to get the rumored new macbook air that might come out next year but this is a big turn off if iCloud drive is going to overwhelm the SSD in the AIr.

  • Apps taking up too much space on my computer harddrive?

    Hi guys,
    Whenever I hook my iPad & iPhone up to iTunes it automatically starts to upload all of the apps from both devices onto my computer. This wouldn't be such a problem, but between the iPhone and the iPad, it takes up around 40 GB of space from apps all by themselves. I store music/videos on an external harddrive so I'm not completely starved for harddrive space but I was wondering if someone could tell me what I can do to keep my iPad/iPhone apps from eating up too much space on my computer?
    Seems like I should be able to avoid having the iPhone/iPad (I use both) upload and backup all of my apps to my computer through iTunes but I also tried doing a backup straight ti iCloud and it didn't do the trick.
    Does anyone have any answers on this please? Thanks.

    400 apps taking up 13.6Gb so I get an estimate of 1,175 (wow I have some bulky apps!) but 40Gb sounds like quite a haul.
    A couple of things come to mind. First is that occasionally iTunes can neglect to delete the old copy when apps are updated so you could have some orphaned files in your Mobile Applications folder.
    Second, your apps should be stored in the same location as your music and movies but I'm guessing from what you've written that they're not. This means you are likely to have a split library with the database and supporting files on your internal drive and media in another folder, but in the old school layout. Assuming you are happy letting iTunes organize your files (and you have a backup) using File > Library > Organize Library > Rearrange files in the folder <Media Folder>, followed by File > Library > Organize Library > Consolidate files will sort that out. You'll have to delete the now redundant copies of the apps on your internal drive. The good news is that this will have dealt with any orphaned apps.
    In the long term you might want to consider making your library portable.
    Note switching to iCloud backup should not remove any content from your computer. I suspect purchases still get transferred when syncing but I've not tested it.

    I was copying files to my time capsule when it crashed when it was almost finished. Now I am stuck with a light grey folder I can not delete. I would´t care if it wasn´t for the fact the folder is 1 TB size and takes up too much space. I have tried turning on and of Hiding Files in Finder and what not with no success. So, how do I delete this folder. Remember, I am not extremely familiar with technical terms.

    I recommend you erase the TC.. it is the easiest and fastest solution.
    In Airport utility open the disk tab and select erase.. choose quick erase.. it will take less than 1min.
    Start again but copy files in small amounts.

  • Too Much Space on the Page

    Why is there an extra three inches of space below the lowest object on my pages in preview (and published)? The depth is set to default standard and there are no items or boxes stretching it out. This has happened more than once.

    Thank you for your response. This has happened on two sites I developed and I can't find a workaround.

  • Too much space after form

    There is too much space after the form:
    http://zooop.net/birch_center/
    I can control the space by adding a height tag in this tag:
    <iframe src="
    http://www.birchcenter.com/OpenNewsletter/includethis.php"
    frameborder="0" width="170" scrolling=no style="border:0px;
    font:Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;
    color:#666666"></iframe>
    But when users enlarge their text either through their OS or
    their browser, the "Subscribe" buttons sinks behind the text after
    it, and is not functionlal.
    Does anyone know why there is so much space after the form
    and how I could get rid of it?
    Thanks very much,
    Emilie

    Many HTML tags have inherent margins, and <form> is one
    of them. Use CSS to
    control it -
    form { margin:0; padding:0; }

  • Bookmark Toolbar bookmarks have icons & take up too much space.

    Firefox 4 beta 3 added icons to the Bookmark Toolbar, i.e. folder icons next to folder drop-downs, and mini-icons for links. While they're pretty, they take up too much space. Beta 2 didn't look like this.
    How can I get rid of them?

    Not on OS X.<br />
    It is probably the first Firefox version that will have icons on the Bookmarks Toolbar if you get them by default.<br />
    In previous Firefox versions you need a special theme or code in userChrome to accomplish that.<br />
    Now you will need code in userChrome.css if you want to suppress those icons.
    Add code to [http://kb.mozillazine.org/UserChrome.css|userChrome.css] below the @namespace line.<br />
    See http://kb.mozillazine.org/Editing_configuration#How_to_edit_configuration_files<br />
    <pre><nowiki>@namespace url("http://www.mozilla.org/keymaster/gatekeeper/there.is.only.xul"); /* only needed once */
    #personal-bookmarks .toolbarbutton-icon {
    display:none !important;

  • How do I remove the Icons next to each bookmark on the bookmark toolbar? They take up too much space and all the bookmarks I need on the toolbar dont show up.

    On my bookmarks toolbar, each bookmark has the associated webpage icon next to it. I would like to remove those icons, as they take up too much space.
    Thanks

    The icons, if you are familiar with them or they are obvious, take up less space than the words. You can abbreviate the names down to next to nothing or even nothing.
    To save space and help organization you can group bookmarks into folders on your Bookmarks toolbar.
