Running out if storage!! HELP!!!

I need HELP! I am running out if storage on my iphone and majority of my storage are photos. I need somewhere I can store my photos to get them off my iphone but still be able to access them off my iphone. If that is possible!?!

Import the photos to your computer, delete them from your camera roll and sync back those you want on the phone. You also can store photos on sites like flikr and DropBox and view them from there.

How do I transfer photos and videos from ipad2 to an external drive? Or pc? Running out of storage.help!

How do I free up storage space on ipad2?

There are some wireless external hard drives that can be used with the iPad.
The Kingston Wi-Drive, which costs $50 for the 16 Gigabyte, and then $30 more for every 16 gigs more. It works by you turning it on and then accessing the files on it from an app that you download on your iDevice. You can access music, movies, and other stuff. No connections or anything, it works like a WiFi connection, you connect to it from the setting on the iPad under wireless networks.
Then there is the Seagate GoFlex, which some would recommend over the Wi-Drive. But this one costs $199 and had 500 Gigabytes of storage. It works the sameway as the Kingston: no wires, runs over its wireless connection. You can actually fit up to 300 HD movies on it.
Another option:

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.

Macbook air running out of storage

I am relatively new to the mac world. I have a macbook air 128g and am running out of storage space. I am wondering if I can use icloud as a primary storage for my media files (Photos, music, video, etc). Then I could potentially remove from hard drive to free up space. I am concerned if this is possible and what the cons would be. I am thinking that Itunes library and photos would not be as quickly accesible as it would be using the hard drive. Please help...

iCloud can't be used for storage in that way. I believe sugarsync allows you to keep files online without having to have them on your hard drive.
A slightly fuller explanation here, you can keep files without having them on your hard drive by using SugarSync's 'Web Archive' Storing them in any other SugarSync location will cause them to be synchronized with your computer, a bad thing if you want to delete them from the the local storage.

My MacBook Air is running out of storage. Will an external hard drive work for me?

Good afternoon, Apple support forums! I recently made a BootCamp partition, and now my MacBook Air is running out of storage (about 13 GB left), and I realize that I cannot expand the storage on my Macbook Air without some DIY technical work. I looked into alternatives and came onto external hard drives (I'm looking at the LaCie Porsche Design P'9223 USB 3.0 Mobile Hard Drive - 2 TB, but this question is for external hard drives in general). I was wondering, just in case, if I could use it not for backup (as I already have an Apple AirPort Time Capsule) but as added on storage for my Mac. Also, would I have to keep the external hard drive plugged into my Mac 24/7 to have access to the files stored on it? Thanks in advance for any help!!

1. Yes, you can.
2. You only need to have it plugged in when you're accessing data on it.

Early 2008 iMac mysteriously running out of storage

Running out of storage. I have a Early 2008 iMac desktop with 2GB of memory, L2 Cache of 6 MB. Using OS X 10.8.5 I have only 4.11 GB free of 319.21 GB. Referencing the More about this Apple storage tab, it says my largest user of memory is "other" which uses uses 279 GB. By contrast my photos uses 1.58GB, Audio 4.13 GB. Movies 10.7 GB, Apps 7.95 GB, Backup 0. It seems obvious that OTHER is eating up all of the space. I cannot figure out what this catagory is. I assume it is the OS X system, but that cannot be that big. Does anyone have advice.
I also have a Seagate Backup Plus drive of 2 TB where I back up my iMac. It has 1.59TB free of its 2 TB capacity
Also would adding another 2 GB in memory be advised. Thanks for your help from a Senior Citizen with limited understanding of how my computer works internally.

This was very helpful SO FAR. At first I only found lots of little things to delete but it made little difference in the total memory gained. The I realized I was only scanning my files. I rescanned with it looking at only my hard drive and I got the result with 80% of the visual filled with big and small units lmost all appear to be Backup/Home Folder? /INcremental. The files date from 1/1/2012 until 11/11/2013. Everything should be backing up to my SeaGate external drive. Should I now delete or trash these older files and how do I do that?

Running out of storage on my ipad2

i am running out of storage on my ipad. i don't think i have a lot of stuff on my pad but my pad is telling me different. i recently did the upgrade on my pad, did that take up storage????
i really don't need all 2000 photos or 8 purchased videos on my pad or on my phone for that matter. so my question.
can i store all my photos and purchased videos on my macbook pro only? then if i want to watch a video sync it back onto my pad watch it and then put it back on my mac? same thing with my photos. maybe only keep a few on my pad and phone.
i do have icloud but really don't understand the full deal. but i don't need all the stuff that is on my mac on my pad and phone too.
thanks so much for all and any help.

thats my problem, i don't know how to do that. with the cloud, which i want to keep so that i can keep the "find my ipad, iphone and mac everything goes on all three.
if i plug my ipad or iphone in it just duplicates what is already on there.
so, i don't know how to just keep it in my mac and put it in the others when needed.
i've been reading the support for icloud but i cannot find what i'm looking for.

TS3992 Phone running out of storage space, bought 15GB of iCloud storage...still not working

My phone was running out of storage space so my friend suggested I backup my files to iCloud. After doing this and paying for 15GB, I still am unable to take any new photos. This did not open up new space for me and it says there is still 7.7GB available. HELP. My friend who told me to do this said it worked for her and she has 25GB. My phone allowed me to take screenshots before and now I can't save anything. I don't know what I'm doing wrong. Any help here?

This more than likely means you are running out of Space LOCALLY on your Device and you need to Delete Data OFF your Device...
If this is the case... Getting Additional iCloud Storage will not fix your issue.

Message: You will run out of storage when your downgrade takes effect

In my email, I received a message today with the subject
You will run out of storage when your downgrade takes effect
I looked in my account and don't see anywhere where I've set it to downgrade. It's still set at the correct level. I checked the credit card to make sure it hadn't expired.
Any thoughts of what else I could check?
Here's the email:
As requested, your iCloud storage will be downgraded to 5 GB on 02/27/2015. However, you are currently using 6 GB.
Unless you take action before your downgrade takes effect, backups to iCloud will stop, and apps will no longer be able to save documents to iCloud. You can either free up storage or cancel your downgrade to keep your current storage plan for another year.
To continue using these iCloud features without interruption, you can cancel your downgrade by selecting a different storage plan:
1.
On your iOS device, go to Settings and tap iCloud
2.
Tap Account.
3.
Tap your current plan, then choose from the options presented

Sounds to me like you're not the original owner of the device.
Did you buy it secondhand? From where?

I am trying to edit my music list and then sync it to my iPhone 5 so I don't run out of storage space. However, I see the check marks on the iTunes library but am unable to uncheck them? How do I manually edit what will be synced to my phone?

I am trying to edit my music list and then sync it to my iPhone 5 so I don't run out of storage space. However, I see the check marks on the iTunes library but am unable to uncheck them? How do I manually edit what will be synced to my phone? (the check marks are not bolded, does this mean they are not in my library but only on my phone?)

You uncheck the music in your iTunes library on your computer and along with sync only checked songs and videos selected under the Summary selection for your iPhone sync preferences with iTunes, only checked songs in your iTunes library will be transferred to your iPhone or remain on your iPhone and the unchecked songs in your iTunes library that are currently on your iPhone will be removed when syncing.
Or make use of iTunes playlists and choose selected playlists, albums, artists under the Music selection for your iPhone sync preferences with iTunes and select the playlists below that you want transferred to your iPhone.

HT201317 My iPhone is running out of storage. I want to delete a bunch of photos on my phone. I have iCloud. How do I delete photos from the iPhone and keep them on my computer? I need to free up storage as my phone will no longer take photos.

My iPhone is running out of storage. I want to delete a bunch of photos on my phone. I have iCloud. How do I delete photos from the iPhone and keep them on my computer? I need to free up storage as my phone will no longer take photos.

The only way you can do that is to import them into your library first, but you may have done that already.
The easiest way to tell is to select a photo from the photostream album in iPhoto and ctrl-click on it, if it gives you the option to import it isn't in your iPhoto library, if it offers you the option to show in library it has already been imorted.

I am receiving a notification that says that I am running out of storage space. I backed up time mating to an external hard drive. Can I delete some files to make room?

I am receiving notifications that I am running out of storage space. I backed up my mac book using an external and time machine. Can I delete some files to make room?
If so,
When I want to restore from my time machine, can I pick and choose, say certain songs, photos or documents?

About TM "Backup Drive is Full"
Alert TM only deletes older files if they have been deleted from the source and when TM needs space on the backup drive for a new incremental backup. Time Machine "thins" it's backups; hourly backups over 24 hours old, except the first of the day; those "daily" backups over 30 days old, except the first of the week. The weeklies are kept as long as there's room.
So, how long a backup file remains depends on how long it was on your Mac before being deleted, assuming you do at least one backup per day. If it was there for at least 24 hours, it will be kept for at least a month. If it was there for at least a week, it will be kept as long as there's room.
Note, that on a Time Capsule the sparsebundle grows in size as needed, but doesn't shrink. Thus, from the user's view of the TC it appears that no space has been freed, although there may be space in the sparsebundle.
Once TM has found it cannot free up enough space for a new backup it reports the disk is full. You can either erase the backup drive and start your backups anew or replace the drive with a larger drive. You can also use the Time Machine application to selectively remove files, but that may be ineffective if you have to free up GBs of space.

Hey bizteacher,
Thanks for the question. Do you still have access to the iPhone 3GS? If so, follow these steps:
iOS: Import personal photos and videos from iOS devices to your computer
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht4083
You could also follow these steps on your new iPhone 5, so long as the pictures are stored in your Camera Roll (as opposed to being synced to your phone).
Thanks,
Matt M.
