Storage on Mac for iPad update

What is th easiest way to handle this, without buying more storage?

You DO NOT buy storage for iPad.
iPads have their own internal storage sizes that limit how much data you can put on them.
The only way to gain data storage space on any iDevice is to delete data off of the device to make room for new data.
If you want to make more space on your iPad, if you have a computer with iTunes on it, connect up your iPad to your computer and backup all of the data on your iDevice.
Once you have a backup of all of your data stored on your iPad, you can go back to your iPad and start deleting data off of your iPad.
Start by deleting photos, movies, music, books and magazines and any data that is stored within an app.
If you have apps on your iDevice that you no longer use, you can delete these off of your iPad to get even more free space on your iPad.
Good Luck!

  • HT204053 I just purchased more storage space(10gb) for   iPAD, but when I attempted to download an app An error message appeared prompting me to buy more storage. according to my ICloud  I have 15gb available. Does anyone have any suggestions

    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.

  • How much storage it takes for iso8 update as i have iphoce 5c 8gb

    I have iphone 5c 8gb.
    I need to update to iso8 but my concern is how much memory the update takes.
    Because i got only 5gb space on board, If it takes more than 1.5 to 2 gb then i will leave with no space at all to apps, songs and music.
    Please help me.

    If your ipad has only 797 MB free and it tells you that you need 3.4 GB to update, then you need to begin deleing files, whatever it takes to free up space.
    Consider...
    Delete apps you don't use.
    Delete videos you don't want (these take up a lot of space).
    Do you have a lot of emails stored on the device?
    Are there apps that store data files, like a PDF reader?  If there are a lot of these, you need to delete some.
    The bottom line is that you need to remove data and/or apps on your device to make more storage available.
    But for videos and photos, always sync them to a computer first to archive them.

  • Creating Keynote w. Hyperlinks on the Mac for iPad

    I am creating a Keynote presentation on my Mac which has to be shown on the iPad. Can I create hyperlinks to different slides in the same presentation? Will they work on the iPad? I am reading different stories, some say it will work, others say the hyperlinks will have to be redone on the iPad.
    Thanks for your help.

    I have no idea at all. Most people who want to run Linux just want to run Linux. What you are attempting is, maybe, 1% of all Linux users. Add to that you are trying to run Linux on a Mac, so take 5% of the previous number. Now you want to do all that in a VM, so take another 60% of the last figure. You are left with probably couple dozen people in the world, if that.
    Linux is fundamentally about playing around. The expectation is that you will figure it out and post instructions. I remember there was a bug report a couple of weeks ago written by a certain Mr. Torvalds. It seems he couldn't get his flash player to work. Normally people say YMMV (Your Mileage May Vary), but, with Linux, you are building your own vehicle.

  • How long does purchasing storage take effect for ipad, how long does purchasing storage take effect for ipad?

    I just purchased more storage space for my ipad mini. How come it hasn't taken affect yet? How long does it take for me to see the storage that I purchased?

    There is a warning notice when the process first starts that it may shut down, and, if so, to wait some long time (30 or 60 seconds; I forgot just which) before powering up.  Sometimes they reboot, and sometimes not.  But in any event, you probably went through more than one reboot, and passed the firmware test.
    Enjoy your MacBook Air!

  • Using PC for Podcasts & Mac for music

    Hi, I have an ipod 30 - love it.
    I'd like to use my mac for music updates and PC for podcasts.
    WHY would I want to do this?
    1. My mac is a G3 10.2.8 and it rejects the majority of video podcasts - my local mac shop says "yes, that is common."
    2. I like having my music on the MAC as it is portable - the PC is a desktop. (plus the mac looks cool in the loungeroom.)
    So I formatted my ipod for PC - uploaded all my PC podcasts (successfully) and then moved to my mac to get my music (successfully).
    PROBLEM
    When I go back to my PC to get Podcast updates, it asks if it can wipe all my music. i can't find the option to just update podcasts.
    Any thoughts?

    Surprise Surprise . It worked!
    I simply re visited the same process (see above)
    and it worked.
    TIPS: When Windows asks to be the Music library, say NO - it will then up date your podcasts.
    NOTE: when you update your music on the MAC, it will wipe your podcasts - simply return to the PC and upload podcasts.

    Identify Your iPad

    If you have an iPad 1, the max iOS is 5.1.1. For newer iPads, the current iOS is 7.0.4. The Settings>General>Software Update only appears if you have iOS 5.0 or higher currently installed.
    You can no longer update to iOS 6.x, or down grade the iOS.

    iOS: How to update your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4623
    If you are currently running an iOS lower than 5.0, connect the iPad to the computer, open iTunes. Then select the iPad under the Devices heading on the left, click on the Summary tab and then click on Check for Update.
    Tip - If connected to your computer, you may need to disable your firewall and antivirus software temporarily.  Then download and install the iOS update. Be sure and backup your iPad before the iOS update. After you update an iPad (except iPad 1) to iOS 6.x, the next update can be installed via wifi (i.e., not connected to your computer).
    Tip 2 - If you're updating via wifi, place your iPad close to your router to preclude getting a corrupted download.
    How to Upgrade to iOS 7
    The iOS 7.0 update requires around 2.5 GB of storage space, so if your iPad is almost full, you may need to clear up some space. You can check your available space in Settings -> General -> Usage.
    There are two ways to upgrade to iOS 7: You can use your Wi-Fi connection, or you can connect your iPad to your PC and update through iTunes. We'll go over each method.
    To upgrade using Wi-Fi:
    Note: If your iPad's battery is under 50%, you will want to plug it into your charger while performing the update.
    Go into the iPad's Settings.
    Locate and tap "General" from the menu on the left.
    The second option from the top is "Software Update". Tap this to move into the update settings.
    Tap "Download and Install". This will start the upgrade, which will take several minutes and will reboot your iPad during the process. If the Download and Install button is grayed out, trying clearing up some space. The space required by the update is mostly temporary, so you should gain most of it back after iOS 7 is installed.
    Once the update is installed, you may have to run through the initial steps of setting up your iPad again. This is to account for new features and settings.
    To upgrade using iTunes:
    First, connect your iPad to your PC or Mac using the cable provided when you purchased your device. This will allow iTunes to communicate with your iPad.
    You will also need the latest version of iTunes. Don't worry, you will be prompted to download the latest version when you launch iTunes. Once it installs, you may be asked to setup iCloud by logging into your iTunes account. If you have a Mac, you may be prompted on whether or not you want to enable the Find my Mac feature.
    Now you are ready to begin the process:
    If you upgraded iTunes earlier, go ahead and launch it. (For many, it will launch automatically when you plug in your iPad.)
    Once iTunes is launched, it should automatically detect that a new version of the operating system exists and prompt you to upgrade to it. Choose Cancel. Before updating, you will want to manually sync your iPad to make sure everything is up to date.
    After canceling the dialog box, iTunes should automatically sync with your iPad.
    If iTunes doesn't automatically sync, you can manually do it by selecting your iPad within iTunes, clicking on the File menu and choosing Sync iPad from the list.
    After your iPad has been synced to iTunes, select your iPad within iTunes. You can find it on the left side menu under Devices.
    From the iPad screen, click on the Update button.
    After verifying that you want to update your iPad, the process will begin. It takes a few minutes to update the operating system during which time your iPad may reboot a few times.
    After updating, you may be asked a few questions when your device finally boots back up. This is to account for new settings and features.
     Cheers, Tom

  • IPad and iTunes cannot check for iOS updates. And iTunes cannot restore the iPad to 6.1.2.

    Hi.
    I have iPad 4G 32GB A1460. NO JAILBREAK EVER. Recently I installed iOS 7 Beta 3 on it. And now when I go to Settings -> General -> Software Update I get the error message "Unable to Check for Update. An error occurred while checking for a software update." And that's all. No useful information actually.
    I have tried to reboot the device but no luck. I have also tried to connect it to a PC and check for updates from iTunes. iTunes shows me a little different error message: "iTunes could not check for an update to the carrier settings for your iPad. An unknown error occurred (1651). Make sure your network settings are correct and your network connection is active, or try again later." I checked the connection just in case and was convinced that the Internet connection is active. Does anyone know what's happening? I really don't like this.
    OK, maybe the next iOS version isn't out yet. But what will happen if it is? Will I be forced to use 7.0 Beta 3 forever? I don't want to))
    Another thing that I've tried to do is to restore my iPad to iOS 6.1.2. But the iTunes shows another error: "The iPad "<iPad name>" could not be restored. An unknown error occurred (3194)." I tried this on Windows and Mac. On Mac I have a different message: "This device isn't eligible for the requested build" which seems to be the same thing as 3194-error on Windows.
    Can anyone help me? Is there a reasonable explanation of this? Is this related to Apple's developers web site unavailability (http://devimages.apple.com/maintenance/)?
    Thanks in advance!

  • Automatic date update in Pages for iPad

    I want the date (date feild?) in a Pages for iPad letter template to update automatically (using the system date, like other word process application) but cannot see how to do this. This automatic date update appears to work in the Pages for iPad templates examples. i.e open a letter template and the date field shows the correct date, do the same with the same template 24 hours later and the date is shown correctly accordingly. I believe feature is achieved in the Mac version of Pages by setting up a date field. I would like to do the same with Pages iPad. Any ideas how this can be achieved? 

    We cannot speculate about future Apple products. We know no more about this than you do at this time.
    You can suggest it to Apple at Apple Feedback.

    The message is referring to iTunes on your computer, not the iPad : http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
    The built-in apps on the iPad can only be updated via iOS updates, so if your iPad mini is on iOS 6.0.2 then its up-to-date
