"Not enough storage available" but that doesn't appear to be true

I keep getting prompted that there is not enough storage available to backup my iPhone to my iCloud.  The thing is, I should have enough space.  I have 15GB of space on iCloud.  In my iCloud "Manage Storage" settings, it shows that the "Backup size" is 14.8 GB, the "Next Backup Size" is 14.9 GB.  When I try to backup to iCloud, it fails because there is not enough storage available.  I don't know why this is happening.

You can order a Snow Leopard 10.6 install disk for $29 as long as you have at least 1gb of RAM and 5gb of free space on your hard drive. http://store.apple.com/us/product/MC573Z/A?mco=MTY3ODQ5OTY

    The Storage space its referring to is on iCloud. How much iCloud space is left, and how much space is your iPhone using?
    iCloud storage space and the iPhone's physical storage space are 2 different things.

  • Why is my iphone 4 saying not enough storage available?

    Hello, when ios 7 came out I could not download it because I didn't have enough storage so I did not stress it. The next week I plugged my iphone in my laptop and it downloaded ios 7 and ever since then my iphone 4 will not let me take pictures, download apps, nothing and it keeps popping up not enough storage available, you can either buy more or delete some. So I deleted A LOT of my apps and pictures and contacts but still even with four apps on my phone it won't let me do anything. Does anyone know why? And I do not want to buy more storage because I am going to upgrade my phone this summer but still its very annoying, can anyone help me please? And thank you !!!

    That's iCloud storage that it's talking about
    Check Settings>iCloud>Storage & Backup.
    Odds are what you see here will show a very small amount as "Available."
    See here to learn about managing your iCloud storage.

  • My iPad air is missing some apps from my phone. It keeps saying, " there is not enough storage available to download..."

    My iPad air is missing some apps from my phone. It keeps saying, " there is not enough storage available to download...." I purchased additional storage twice, my device now shows 18GB free of a total 25GB, and still I cannot download apps I've had for yrs

    iCloud space is for backup only.
    You need more local storage; free up space on iPad:
    Settings>General>Usage>Storage>Delete what is not needed to free up space on iPad.

    My ipod screen shows "not enough storage" message but will not let me click on the cancel or settings button.  How do I fix this?

    Try:
    - Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
    Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Restore from backup. See:                                 
    iOS: How to back up           
    - Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.

  • I can not backup my ICloud.  my phone says not enough storage.  but i don't want to pay for more.  my phone i just got rid of did not have this issue

    can anyone help me?

    Not photos, just data synced with iCloud shown in Settings>iCloud.  If you don't have sufficient storage to back up to iCloud, back up to your computer instead using iTunes (connect you phone to your computer, open iTunes, click on the name of your phone in iTunes, go to ths Summary tab of your iTunes sync settings and click Back Up Now).  Also transfer your purchases to your iTunes library (connect your phone to your computer, open iTunes and go to File>Devices>Transfer Purchases). If you have photo stream photos older than 30 days tha you wan to save, save these to your camera roll before backing up (tap Select, tap the photos, tap the share icon -- box with upward facing arrow, then tap Save to Camera Roll).
    When setting up your new phone, when given the option choose Restore from iTunes Backup and restore the backup you made earlier.

  • Dns error 14 not enough storage available

    I have a windows 2003 storage that has a dns issue, this server is also a dc. I cant get dns to start and I have 1gb of free space. sp2 64bit was partially loaded then failed and cannot be removed. However, when I look at the properties of the server is states windows service pack 1 is installed. any ideas how to get dns to start??

    Hi,
    Please check if the security update KB951748 is installed on the server. If so, please uninstall it, restart the server and check if the issue goes away. Based on my research, the root cause of the issue is Service Pack mismatch on the server. It causes incompatibility between the security update and SP1 and that’s why you encounter this issue.
    If the issue is urgent, you can contact Microsoft Customer Service Support (CSS) for instant assistance. For a complete list of Microsoft Product Support Services phone numbers and information about support costs, please go to the following address on the World Wide Web:

  • I have an iPad 2 and iPhone 5. I have 18.3GB of 25GB iCloud storage available but I'm unable to download anything as it says not enough storage!!

    Please help, but keep it simple.  I have an iPad 2 and iPhone 5. I've got 25GB storage on iCloud with 18.3GB available but when I'm trying to download anything, it's saying not enough storage available.  I thought everything I put on my iPad would be stored in the cloud but I'm obviously missing something. Any suggestions?

    The cloud is for storing your backups (which will then allow you to restore your content back on to a device), to download content on your iPad you need enough available space on your actual iPad : Settings > General > About > Available.
    If you aretrying to download an app then you generally need approximately twice its size to be able to download and install it.

  • TS3274 How to fix "Not enough storage"/  I have never backed up.

    I am getting the "not enough storage" message but to my knowledge I have never used back-up on my wife's Ipad.  We are not big users of itunes or any other download.

    Back it up. While uninstalling and reinstalling it doesn't normally affect the library, other things, such as drive failures, can.
