TS3991 not enough storage space in icloud

When I charge my I pad it will not back up not enough space in icloud.  What should I do to get more space to back up?  I pad freeze, and try to go to settings

You might try a forced shutdown to begin with, hold down the top and home buttons together until the device shuts down, then restart it.
You will then need to determine why you don't have enough space, is it because your iCloud account is already full of other documents or because the back up itself is excessively large.

  • HT4859 I have the error message "Not enough storage. Cannot backup, not enough backup space in ICloud . . . ", but now the "close" and "settings" buttons don't respond and I cant get the IPad to open so I can go change settings. What do I do?

    For a "hard" restart of your iPad just press the home and power button at the same time and hold it for at least 10-15 sec. until it restarts.

  • Not enough storage space error. wont let me back up

    When my 4S attempts to automatically back up I get an error message saying there is not enough storage space. I'd like to see whats taking up the space on the cloud, but when I access the cloud, theres NOTHING that could be taking up that much space! (contacts, notes, calendar, reminders.) I cant even see my pictures on the cloud. Which are supposed to be backing up... so I'd like to know HOW to access the things I am backing up, and WHY it is saying there is not enough room when there is, and WHAT I can do about it. Please help!

    Hello ttclarin,
    I think it is trying to tell you that you have used your 5GB of iCloud storage. Check your device for iCloud usage and see how much space you are using there.

    I cleaned the Temp directory and rebooted, making sure to kill the processes in the Startup folder.  It went smooth like a gravy sandwich.  Thanks for the help!

  • Cs5 bridge error not enough storage space

    I have more than enough room on my computer, but every since I got windows 8 bridge constantly stops working saying theres not enough storage space??

    Is your storage all on the same drive, or do you have separate boot and data drives?  If so, how much room on the C: drive?

  • Thread creation error: Not enough storage space

    Hi,
      Recently (the past week or so), my desktop client for Skype has been crashing regularly. This is accompanied by large (over 1.2GB) amounts of memory usage. At semi-regular intervals (say every few hours), Skype will post an error with the text "Thread creation error: Not enough storage space..."
    I am using the latest build of Skype. I am not performing any Skype logging. This error is clearly an ongoing issue which has not been addressed, as prior threads have discussed this as well.

    Errors like this have been addressed and continue to be addressed.  Being that the errors are related to memory leakage of one form or the other, the problem can have several sources and be agitated by several programs.  I personally run the latest version on all my machines in a 24/7 capacity and have not run into the problem.  Some versions in the past created a similar error for me, yet the latest has not.  If you've already updated your IE's flash and that has not alleviated the problem, the only other solution is running an earlier release that doesn't crash for you or restart Skype more often.  I've had virtual video devices trigger this behavior by simply launching the video settings once.  The virtual device even when not in use continued to consume memory under Skype until it crashed.  So if you use any virtual audio/video components you may want to remove them to see if that changes anything.  Some people have also blocked ads when those were the source.

  • My icloud storage says I have plenty of space left, I keep getting a message that says not enough storage space left.

    My Icloud storage says I have plenty of space left, but I keep getting a message that says there is not enough storage left. Please help

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    Are you sure the message isn't about space on your phone, rather than in iCloud.

  • If I get an app but the download does not start because of not enough storage space, will I be charged?

    There is an app that Is free for limited time. I want to buy it while i can so that I don't have to pay for it when it costs money but I do not have enough storage space and the download won't start. So, now that I already got it but the download hasn't started, does that mean I will be able to get it for free using iCloud later on when it costs money?

    As long as you 'buy' it now, and it remains in the store, then you will be able to re-download it for free via the Purchased tab in the App Store app on your iPod, and the Purchased link under Quicklinks on the right-hand side of the iTunes store home page on your computer's iTunes.

  • IPad 3 not enough storage available in iCloud

    On my new iPad 3 iget this error message that won't go away   " Not Enough Storage "

  • Not enough storage space?!

    I want to download an app that's 487 MB and I currently have 503 MB available. It's saying I don't have enough storage...What's the problem?

    The problem is that you do not have enough space.
    Most apps require 2-3 times the space in order to install.

  • I need to update my devices but can't because not enough storage. Purchased iCloud and still can't do updates and doesn't seem to work?

    I can't do any updates cause I've no storage I bought storage and now I can't do update cause I don't have enough mb?i need an apple genius to sort me out! It's probably something simple and when I look up apples website about iCloud it says I need the latest ios6 but I can't update because it won't let me?!! Advice please?

    iCloud doesn't increase the storage capacity on your phone.  That is fixed when you purchase it.  iCloud only allows you to sync data between devices, so they always have the same data.
    If you want to increase the free space on your phone so you can update it, you'll have to sync some of your data off your device to make more room.  One option is to import your photos and videos to your computer (http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4083) and delete them off your phone.  You can sync some or all of them back later if you want.  Another option is to sync some or all of your music off your phone.  You can also sync this back later if you want.

  • IPhone unable to work due to not enough storage space available.

    It's been quite some time now that I'm having trouble with my iPhone 4s. It tells me that I don't have enough memory available.  I don't have any music installed, I have very few app's installed, but I do have a lot of pictures.  It's getting frustrating because the internet starts to drop off or won't even open.  My text messages dissappear or won't even send.   On my old iPhone 3GS, I had a lot of apps, tons of pictures, lots of music and not once did I have any issues with memory.  Help needed....

    What do you mean it "refuses to work using bluetooth"?
    The iPhone does not support bluetooth file transfer. The only thing you can use it for with any computer is tethering the internet connection from the phone.  You can not sync or transfer data with your computer via bluetooth. You can sync via cable or WiFi.

  • Not enough storage for an icloud backup

    Can't close the window with either the "CLOSE" button, or "SETTINGS" button. Now the telephone hangs and are useless... Help!

    You both need, & should use different Apple ID's for iCloud, iMessage & FaceTime. You both can continue to use the same Apple ID for iTunes content.
    One of you needs a new Apple ID.
    The Apple ID needs to be a verified email address. Once you have an email address, that can be verified, go here & create the ID:
    https://appleid.apple.com/cgi-bin/WebObjects/MyAppleId.woa/wa/createAppleId
    Then on her phone, turn off Contacts, Calendars, etc. for iCloud. You'll be prompted to keep the data or delete it from the phone, then turn off iMessage, FaceTime & delete the iCloud account...Settings>iCloud...scroll down...delete account. Then, setup iCloud using the new Apple ID, turn on iMessage & Facetime.
    This will have no affect on the ID you both share for iTunes content, & you can continue to do so.

  • I get an error message "Not enough storage" ( in the iCloud).

    After getting the error message I cannot use any functionality. The iPad is totally blocked.

    If the message is staying on screen then have you tried a reset ? Press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider if it appears), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.

  • Can anyone help? I've just got my new iphone 6.  I'm restoring from the icloud but it's saying there's not enough storage for my photos....and I'm unable to access any images.  Help appreciated

    Hi,
    I've just moved on from an iphone 5 to an iphone 6.
    I'm now on my second attempt at restoring it through the icloud.
    My photos and videos are unavailable and it keeps saying I'm low on storage. At this stage it just keeps saying it's updating but it's been saying that for 8 hours and I still don;t have any photos available....any advice appreciated.  It's getting a little frustating
    Thanks,
    Emma

    The backup cannot be restored to the iPhone if there is not enough storage space available.
