My ipad is frozen.It says not enough storage but when I press the settings, it's still not moving or doing anything. What do I need to do?

First thing to try is to reset your device. Press and hold the Home and Sleep buttons simultaneously ignoring the red slider should one appear until the Apple logo appears. Let go of the buttons and let the device restart. See if that fixes your problem.
If your pad is running out of space it is time to delete unneeded items.

If your device is frozen and unresponsive, reset it by holding the power and home buttons at the same time until you see the Apple logo, then release.

THis suggestion also worked for my iphone! After a few warnings, the screen on my iPhone froze. there was no way to make phone calls or manage my iCloud storage or even turn it off. I deleted all the photos on my iphone, checked storage and nothing changed. So I purchased more storage, did the backup and still the screen remained frozen. To be sure, I checked that the new amount of storage was registered, it was but somehow my Mac showed the backup I had just performed (a couple of times) not having happened (it show the last one some 2 weeks before). Weird but I followed your suggestion (wish I had seen it before I purchased new storage) and Ta DAH!!! I'm back in business too. thanks!!

Reboot the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider if it appears on the screen - let go of the buttons. Let the iPad start up.

My iPhone says "Not Enough Storage"

My iPhone says "Not Enough Storage" but when i tap on "Close" or "Settings", nothing happens. It's as if I never tapped on it. The buttons work but the pop-up just won't go away. I already deleted all of my pictures and some apps but the pop-up still won't come off. I can't even unlock my iPhone because the pop-up is in the way.

Do a reset

TS3992 My iPad is stuck on message "not enough storage" I've bought more iCloud space, but my device is still stuck on the message and wont respond to the Close or Settings on the touchscreen! Can anyone help?

My iPad is stuck on message "not enough storage", and does not respond to touchscreen Close or Settings. I've bought more iCloud space and tried to get to Settings again to see if I can resume a backup, but no luck. I'm still in the same boat. Cannot even power off the iPad!! Can anyone out there help? I deleted the Backup off the icloud via my PC and hoped this would start off a new one!

iCloud storage will not help you with your problem. You need to remove data from the iPad to make more room on your iPad available.

Hi karlos16,
For the error message you are seeing, I found this article:
iCloud: Troubleshooting creating backups
http://support.apple.com/kb/TS3992
"This iPhone cannot be backed up because there is not enough iCloud storage available."
This message is displayed when there is not enough storage space available in your iCloud Storage to complete your backup. You can either reduce the amount of data you are backing up under Backup Options, or you can buy more storage.
For the issue with the iPhone appearing to be unresponsive, I recommend this article for troubleshooting:
iPhone, iPad or iPod touch: Not responding or does not turn on

Cheers!
