Purchased extra storage space...not working..?

I just bought extra storage space for the icloud so that I could download a movie onto my ipad.  When I now go to download the movie it still says that there isn't enough space...does it take a while for the purchase to go through or am I doing something wrong here..?

Storage space in iCloud has nothing to do with storage space on iPad.
You need to delete items on iPad to make room for the movie.

    By deleting or syncing data off of it to free up space.

  • Just purchased more storage space for iphone6 but not showing?

    I just purchased more storage space for my iphone6, 20gb, but my backup storage still shows 5gb?  How do I troubleshoot this problem, my credit card info is accurate?

    You cannot install more storage space on an iDevice. If you don't have space on the device to download to it, then you need to delete stuff from it. Buying more cloud space does not do a thing for you unless you store to the cloud and remove from the device.

  • Icloud extra storage space can not be canceled, since the processing is not available. Icloud message reads 'service cancel not available. try later'. this message shows up for days already. How to get rid of this extra storage space I cloud?

    what can i do to cancel my extra storage space Icloud?

    Go to "Settings > iCloud > Storage > Buy more Storage" on your iOS device and change the plan.

  • Multiple Apple ID's and iCloud (purchased extra storage)

    My mom and dad want different iCloud accounts (so the contacts etc are not merged) They have bought the extra 20GB of iCloud storage for my Mom's phone. Here's the setup and apple ID's...  My question is how to split these and keep the extra iCloud storage on my mom's phone.
    Dad's iPad ID: [email protected]
    Mom's iPhone ID: [email protected]
    iCloud extra storage ID: [email protected]
    I want to change Mom's iPhone to: [email protected]
    and change the extra iCloud storage to: [email protected]
    I've already tried to change the ID of the iCloud but it will not let me because the email address for [email protected] is already used.
    I hope this makes sense to someone! 

    Hey rich!
    I'm taking a risk here and assuming that when you say "iPad ID" and "iPhone ID" you are referring to the iCloud ID on the mentioned device, right?
    If so,
    the extra storage was purchased with your dad's iCloud account and that's where it stays.
    Dad's iCloud ID can stay on his iPad, along with his extra storage.
    Go to Settings->iCloud and delete Dad's iCloud ID from Mom's phone.
    Log in to iCloud on Mom's phone with Mom's iCloud ID.
    (Does she already have this iCloud ID? If not, it may be taken by someone else and she would have to create a new one for her.)
    You cannot move the extra storage to Mom's iCloud ID. MAYBE, just MAYBE iTunes can do it, but I seriously doubt it. Contact them for assistance. (apple.com/support/itunes and select Contact iTunes)
    I don't fully understand the need to purchase extra storage for just one device. Now, if you had multiple iOS devices (like for your business), then I can see it. I back up a 32g iPad and a 16g phone using less than half of 1G of my iCloud storage.
    Good luck

    If you are trying to download an app and get an error about not enough memory, it's talking about memory on your iPad, not in iCloud.  I don't know what you mean by purchasing more storage space for your iPad, you can't add more memory to a device.  You may have bought more memory in iCloud, but that's not going to fix your current problem.  You need to delete songs or video, or some other large files from your iPad to make room for a new download.

  • I can't buy extra storage space for my iCloud account..

    Hi All.
    I use iTunes 10.5 and ios 5. My iCloud space is mostly full. I have been trying to purchase the 10GB extra space since yesterday but it keeps on giving me an error message (An unknown error has occurred).
    I tried over my iPhone, iPad, and Windows 7 iCloud Control Panel. Failed each time, several times.
    Please assist.
    Regards,
    Jaber

    I guess the problem is getting a little bit more clear to me.
    My guess is that we all use iTunes giftcards (as some of you already said)
    and no credit card linked to our accounts.
    So this could be the problem that we all are getting the unkown error issue.
    But then again, as we all can read in the terms and conditions of iCloud, it says that a valid credit card is needed for purchasing extra storage for iCloud, "AND" as well is itunes store credit a legit way of purchasing extra storage for iCloud.
    So my guess is, they would accept iTunes store credit, but only when you would have a credit card linked into your account.
    I hope this isn't true and it is just another problem, but it all points in this direction.
    That would be a big fail.

  • HT201318 Need help with being double charged on my icloud account when purchasing extra storage for my ipad

    Need help with being double charged on my icloud account when purchasing extra storage for my ipad?

    I had this same problem on my 4S. I fixed it by restoring the phone to factory defaults. Previously, I had taken the additional step of restoring from backup but, as soon as I did, the problem returned. The fix is a hassle as I now have to reinstall my apps but at least I can manage mail on the phone.
    The problem also occurred on my iPad2 but I'm not restoring it as it's a serious hassle (see above) and I don't actually read much mail on the device.
    As a side note, I noticed incredibly high load averages (5+ processes for 1, 5, and 15 minutes; 12+ for 1 and 5 minutes at one point) as well as CPU usage that didn't drop below 15% (apparently all user processes, system seemed to be about normal). As could be expected, this also lead to incredibly rapid battery depletion.
    I can't tell what processes were hogging the CPU as neither of my devices are jailbroken and Apple doesn't seem to like 'top' much.

  • Dock dissapear, Exposse, Spaces not work

    Dock is dissapear, Exposse and Spaces not work, i had repaired permissions from disk utillity but all is de the same, restart and all is not working, command + tab either work, and if a try to minimizar a window nothings happend

    I am experiencing this same problem. I have been fine for a few weeks after my Leopard update, but then all of a sudden today I could not find my dock. I wasn't able to get it back at all, so I tried to shut down. It would not shut down so I had to do a hard shut down by holding in the power button. When it rebooted, the dock was still non-existent. I did some googling and learned it might be a corrupt preference. I then deleted the preferences, and immediately a dock (the original default installed) came up. It seemed ok for about 30 seconds, then it quit, and keeps flashing, reappearing, poking out. I deleted the preferences again, same result.
    I ran disk utility. It found some permissions problems and "repaired" them. Now the activity monitor shows that my dock is starting and quitting, as stated above, and I can't see it at all. It's gone.
    I am pretty upset about this, I rely on the dock heavily for my drag and drop applications in CS3.
    Any solutions to this yet?

  • I purchased extra icloud space to store my photos, videos etc in a process to switch my phone, as my current one is broken. How do I know that my photos have gotten to "the cloud"?? Forgive me, I'm new to this process.

    Photos and videos in the camera roll are included in your iCloud backup.  Restoring the backup to your new phone will recover them.

  • Several years ago I had an itunes account through my work email address. I have since left the company. When I tried to access the itunes I purchased, my password would not work because I no longer had access to that acct. How can I access that acct?

    Several years ago I had an itunes account through my work email address. I have since let the company but when I tried to access the songs I'd already purchased, my password would not work because that account no longer existed. I ended up having to open another account but how can I access that account to retrieve my other songs? I realize I can't transfer between accounts but maybe at least burn to CD?

    Hello, RSchultz13. 
    Thank you for visiting Apple Support Communities.
    You can reset your Apple ID password via the steps in the first article below.  I would try the option to answer your security questions.  If those steps do not work then you may need to reach out to our account security team to reset this old Apple ID password.  Once this is done you should be able to access your old DRM protected purchases.

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    Unfortunately you can't, the additional storage belongs to your first account, you can't transfer it.
