Upgraded iCloud Storage not showing up in iCloud Drive

Hi, I upgraded my iCloud storage to 500 GB a few weeks ago.  When I go into iCloud under system preferences I can see that 460GB of that is still available.  However, when I try to store things in iCloud Drive on my computer it tells me there is only 52gb available.  Why is this?  Please help, as it is very frustrating!  Many thanks.

How much storage do I have in iCloud Drive and how do I get more?
When you sign up for iCloud, you get 5 GB of free storage. Your iCloud storage is used for iCloud Backup, iCloud Drive, iCloud Photo Library, iCloud Mail (your @icloud.com email account), and data from apps that use iCloud. Your purchased music, apps, books, TV shows, and My Photo Stream don't count against your 5 GB of free storage.
You can manage your iCloud storage or buy more storage using your iPhone, iPad, iPod touch, Mac, or PC.

  • TS3716 My relatively new ipod touch 16 gb either does not show up as a drive or everytime says it does not recognize my ipod when connected to add music.  I didn't have problems loading music originally, but this is a new occurrence.  Could you help?

    Hey, Thanks a lot.  It took quite a bit of time to resurrect this ipod.  I tried the upgrade again, but still would not recognize my ipod. So I went to the next step and reset my ipod, wiping of all of the information like it was new.  This helped my laptop see the ipod on itunes, but did not sync. So, I deleted the itunes off my computer completely, restarted and then reinstalled the newest itunes, and then restarted.  Finally, it recognized my ipod and started to download each song.  It took awhile as there was 602 songs, but finally it works.  Yea!!!  I never had any problem with my old nano, but this touch has been another animal for sure. Thank you again and also the community for information.  This was a helpful forum and will recommend to others if they get stuck with their ipod or iphone.  Take care, Karen

  • Upgraded iCloud storage not showing the upgrade?

    Using iPhone 5s & new iPad Air.... Upgraded iCloud storage & it hasn't updated on either devices! Is there Anyway to see if you received my request & payment so I don't duplicate it?

    Contact the Apple online store for your country (1-800-MY-APPLE in the U.S. and Canada).  They should be able to verify that your upgrade purchase went through.

  • Just updated iPhone 5 to ios7.  Now when I plug in, iTunes does not download photos, and iPhone is not showing as a hard drive on my computer.  Windows used to have a pop up to download photos, which is no longer there.  iTunes is updated and iCloud isoff

    I also recently installed Norton 360, but that was eliminated via Norton Help.  They remoted in, removed Norton 360 and problem persisted - iPhone did not show on the "Computer" window, and no pop-up to download photos even with no antivirus installed.  Norton help advised to uninstall and reinstall iTunes, which seemed a bit excessive.  Any other fixes I can try before an uninstall and reinstall?

    Your iPhone is in recoverty mode at the moment so to possibly get it back up and running you would need to do a restore as you have been trying. Follow the steps in the article below for the specific error messages you have been receiving. If after following all steps the issue remains book an appointment at a local Apple Retail Store to have the iPhone evaluated.

  • My Lightroom 5 upgrade serial number not showing up on My Products page; chat support useless

    I purchased a Lightroom 5 upgrade license on July 25th.  I didn't receive a confirmation email but my serial number was displayed on the order summary page after purchase.  I tried registering the serial number repeatedly through the My Products page but for some reason the serial number wasn't showing up, even though the registration process reported a successful result.  Furthermore, Adobe products bought from the Adobe store should automatically be registered according to Adobe's web site.  Apparently this must have failed.  I need to reinstall Lightroom 5 but the serial number is still not showing up on the My Products page.  I just spent an extremely frustrating hour with Adobe "Live" chat who did nothing but send me in circles and repeat the same canned responses over and over again.
    I'm currently on hold with "phone support" but I'm not optimistic as I've been on hold for 28 minutes.  The only other support option was a link to this forum, hence this post.  Hopefully someone from Adobe can retrieve my serial number and contact me.  Failing this my only other option will be to contact VISA and open a claim.
    My comical-if-it-weren't-so-sad conversation with Adobe support:
    Hi, there are 36 customer(s) in line ahead of you. We'll be with you as soon as possible. Thank you for your patience.

    Naveen R: I understand that you are unable to locate the serial number.
    Joel: I purchased Lightroom 5 on July 25, 2013 as an upgrade for Lightroom 4. I need to reinstall Lightroom 5, but my serial number is not showing up in the products & services page.
    Joel: I looked through my email receipts and couldn't find an order confirmation (or anything from Adobe related to my recent purchase.) After purchasing the upgrade, the serial number was displayed and I thought I had registered it using the Adobe account portal

    OK, I was able to recover my previous system's image and thankfully it appears you can get the serial number from Help->System Info.  I attempted to register the serial number again via the My Products page and while it indicated that the registration was successful, we'll see.  At least I should be able to install LR5 on my new machine now.
    Edit:  I also just discovered that the serial number is listed under My Orders, but not under My Products.  Weird.  In my defence , I never thought to check My Order history because I never received a confirmation email and the order wasn't listed after purchase...even as late as mid-August (when I last checked.)  Very strange but it's all good now.
    Edit #2: OK now I just feel silly.  I just received an email from Naveen with an actual support case AND the correct serial number.  So, I stand corrected.  The Live Chat process still felt incredibly long with some seemingly canned/automated responses but, in all fairness, he did get back to me.  Thank goodness I washed both feet today...

  • When I open Firefox (after upgrade) it does not show right side vertical scroller bar. I have to take the mouse and physically expand the browser to get the scroller bar to show. (never had this problem in previoius versions of firefox)

I have to take my mouse to the lower right corner and drag it open slightly and the scoller appears It will stay active through other tabs now until I close or shut down firefox. Once I reopen the same thing again no vertical scroller bar.

  • KDE 4.8.0 upgrade - application icons not showing in system tray

    I updated to KDE 4.8.0 through pacman yesterday, and I noticed that system tray is not working as it should. Icons for some applications do not show, while other work OK.
    For example, Akregator icon appers in tray, while icons for Skype, AppSet or the Java application I'm developing do not. I notced that notification ballons for these apps pop up at upper left corner, instead of lower right.
    Anybody got some idea what might be wrong? Maybe QT version issues?
    One more question: how can I bring up these application windows when they do not show in tray?

    When you click on the arrow do they show up in the list ? that list is for hidden apps, if they are right click configure and see here http://userbase.kde.org/images.userbase … ings-2.png

  • Files not showing up on external Drive

    I'm having this really strange and irritating issue with my external hard drive in 10.5.
    I use a folder named "incoming" on an external usb HDD for all my miscellaneous downloaded files, but for some reason, when the transfer completes in the download application, the new files don't appear there. Similarly, when I unzip or create new files on this drive, they'll inevitably either disappear, or folders will appear empty.
    Even stranger, I can actually see all these files and use them like normal if I open my external drive by typing "open /Volumes/Storage" in Terminal, but if I browse through Finder, half are missing.
    I was using this drive in Tiger with no issues, it's HFS+ formatted and I've tried running Verify/Repair in Disk Utility to no avail.
    UPDATE: Upon looking at the mount point of the drive in finder, it says it's mounted at "/Volumes/Storage 1". When I open that mount point in Terminal I can only see some of the files, but when I open "/Volumes/Storage" I can see all the files.

    I have a customer also reporting this same issue with files copied to an external RAID not showing up in Finder, since the 10.5.2 update / Leopard Graphics 1.0 updates. Zapping PRAM fixed the problem temporarily but after a day it's come back. [This is only one of four identical iMacs updated in the same manner that is showing the problem].

  • Disk Utility does not show my internal hard drive.

    Recently, my Macbook Pro crashed.
    THE PROBLEM
    1. I turn it on, it starts normally at first, the Apple Logo Shows for several seconds
    2. It changes to a no-smoking sign without the cigarette
    3. If I try to boot safe mode, a folder appears with a question mark
    4. If I try the internet recovery, I get to the part where I can restore OSX, use disk utility, etc.
    5. When I try to restore OSX, it doesn't show my hard drive as avilable to install upon - no drives are shown
    6. When I try to use disk utility, it only shows my Mac Base System, totaling 2GB, I cannot do anything.
    THE QUESTIONS
    1. What do I do? Thoughts? How do I recover my hard drive data before sending this computer to Apple to fix?
    2. How can I use an external enclosure to recover my data using my desktop? What cords do I need? What is a good drive? Is it hard?
    3. My SD card slot shows, could I install OSX on that and try to load my OSX to gain access to my harddrive that's missing?
    4. Why would my main hard drive not show? I'm supposed to have a 250GB hard drive.
    5. Is there anything I can do on Terminal to try to make my full hard drive appear? Or gain access?
    6. What will Apple do with my RAM that I installed? I upgraded to 8GB? Will they just return as is?
    Thank you.

    Youre working the wrong end trying to revive a dying drive, a replacement is only $65
    Did you have a backup of your vital data?
    Terminal isnt going to do anything to help your HD.
    questions:
    1.  get a new HD, install OS........recovery internal HD data using another computer and throwing the internal HD into a USB enclosure to extract data......however depending on the HD, data extraction may prove futile.
    2. external USB enclosure, comes with USB cable....takes 3 mins to put internal HD into enclosure.
    3. no,...... installing OS on a dying drive is beating a dead horse,...
    4. because its dead/ dying.
    5. no
    6. Yes, they wont mess with your RAM.
    Contact Apple for fix, of if you have the skills you can install a new HD yourself

  • New cube laptop - not showing Maxtor external hard-drive in windows explorer, but showing up in Device manager.

    Hi
    If anyone is able to give me some advice I'd really appreciate it. I have seen similar issues on here and tried uninstalling then re-installing the driver which seemed to fix the similar issue on someone's Windows 7 system but it doesn't seem
    to have worked for me. I also tried using the usb 2 drive rather than the usb 3.
    I have a new cube laptop with Windows 8 (which I'm not used to yet at all) and am trying to access the files from the Maxtor hard-drive from my old pc. The hard-drive does not show up under file explorer but seems to appear in device manager. The
    laptop makes noises occasionally as if it is detecting some hardware but not showing it.
    Can anyone suggest a fix?
    Thanks in advance
    Sadie

    Hi,
    Apologize for the late reply.
    How about the situation by now?
    Could the external hard drive be shown in the
    disk management?
    Or take a look at the format of that hard drive(list disks) with diskpart command:
    A Description of the Diskpart Command-Line Utility
    Check if the format is NTFS.
    Also please take a look at the following article:
    Help! After installing Windows 8.1, my USB drive disappears or file transfers
    stop unexpectedly…
    Hope this may help

  • Nikon P7000 does not show up as a drive in Finder

    When I plug in any of my cameras or other devices, they all show up as a drive in finder, except for my Nikon Coolpix P7000 camera.  Only Aperture and iPhoto can see the files on it.  If I shoot a movie on it, I can't get it into iMovie or FCE without first copying it from iPhoto.
    Anyway to make this camera show up as a drive so that I can move and copy its files directly without using a card reader?

    I'm not going to ask how old.
    I have a P300 as well as the D7000 that shot movies and I just import it from the camera to a folder of my choosing and then open up the app that I want to import it to, since there are a few apps out there you could use,Nikon included.
    You should'nt have to remove the card since I use a USB cable on both mine.
    Times change fast with computers and hardware. Gotta keep up or you get left behind.

  • Lightroom in not showing my Macs hard drive

    I am opening lightroom and wanting to catalog the images on my mac hard drive and move them onto an external drive, but the mac drive is not showing in Lightroom

    Have the images on the Mac hard drive been imported into Lightroom?
    To expand on that question, Lightroom is not a typical file browser that shows everything on your hard drive. Files must be imported into Lightroom. That import process doesn't really move the images anywhere. It simply shows Lightroom where they are located, and then keeps track of all the adjustments made to those images. If the images haven't been imported into Lightroom yet then you would be wise to move them to the external hard drive first and organize them. Then you can import and everything will be organized in Lightroom.
    I apologize if I have misunderstood your question.
