additional icloud and full phone storage

Hello

I have an iPhone 6, which currently has no free space. For example if I go to take a picture, I'm greeted by pop up saying that I have more storage and need to manage to clear space.

I have a 50 GB of space icloud, but appears not to me will benefit all. How can I make my iPhone the icloud allows to store photographs instead of on my phone?

    Hi cyspider,

    I understand that you have purchased storage additional iCloud and your credit card has been charged, but you do not see that the storage has been added.  Have you received an email from Apple regarding this purchase?

    The first thing I would say is to restart your iPhone.  Then tap general > storage & use of iCloud.  In the iCloud section, the amount of 'Storage' has changed?

    If the Total storage has not been updated, the link below will put you in touch with the assistance of the iTunes store team.  They will review your account with you and take measures to solve the problem.

  • How can I send my music to icloud and free up storage on my ipad that is full

    I own an ipad and iphone 6. the ipad is about 4 years old approx. full of downloaded and transferred other CDs and my storage capacity is busiest. How can I send my music to icloud and free up storage on my ipad. My iphone has not been synchronized with ipad. Cannot update my ipad for this reason software also.

    Thank you very much

    You can send music in the cloud of a device. You can delete music, and if it's purchased iTunes music you (if it is still in the store and you have not reached the country since purchasing it) may of it redownload purchased in the iTunes Store app tab. Because you own music (for example copied from CD) you'd need have subscribed to Match iTunes on your computer and downloaded the music to her computer, to show him in the cloud.

    You have all your music in your computer's iTunes library? Update of the iOS via a computer version should also require less free space on the device (but the update via a computer requires your content in the iTunes library, the update process will take up a back, wipe the iPad and install the iOS update and restore the backup, the backup contains things such as your documents photos, contacts, settings, etc, music, apps, etc. is picked up in the iTunes library)

    1. you internet connection didn't work well for the iphone.

    2. you activate icloud photo library on your phone.

    3 you use different icloud account on your phone

    4. There is a small problem, which can must be fixed by signing on icloud and signing in.

  • iCloud causes problems of storage on iPhone

    Since I bought the storage space additional iCloud and moved about 60 GB of files, I receive the error message "almost out of storage" on my phone.

    Despite Apple claiming that these files should have no effect on my iPhone storage, they are certainly the cause.

    That's how I know:

    I've removed these 60 GB of files, was installing a new my iPhone, downloaded and synced all my apps, photos and music and then observed my iPhone storage for a few days. He remained at 6.2 by more than a week.

    Then I passed the 60 GB of files on my Mac in iCloud and inside minutes I observed my iPhone storage down to 6.1 GB and the next morning at a little more than 1 GB, where he remained.

    I don't understand this. As I said, according to Apple, this data should have no effect on the storage of my iPhone.

    There isn't really much point in buying storage extra (in my case 200 GB) iCloud if it affects your iPhone storage (16 GB in my case).

    Does anyone have any ideas?

    These files you 'shifted' come from your photos to Mac?

    How do transfer you to iCloud?

    If they were photos and you the synched to your library of photos from iCloud, they are supposed to be sent to your phone. This is how works iCloud. It is no-storage device, it's a synchronization service.

    Try resetting your device. This will not erase your data stored on that device.

    • Press and hold the sleep/wake button
    • Press and hold the Home button
    • Press and hold both buttons until the display turns off and on again with the Apple logo on the subject.

    Alternatively, you can go to settings - general - reset - Reset all settings

    If that doesn't work, restore your device to factory settings. Please note that this will delete the data on your device.

  • Storage of original photos of full resolution in iCloud and IMac

    Hi all.

    I have what I think, it is a very simple question, but for the life of me cannot find a definitive answer.

    I have a librurary of photo on my iMac. (don't have not yet updated for sierra)

    I would like to support this thesis / store the originals in ICloud AND keep them on my mac.

    SO I think that the obvious thing to do is select "optimize storage" in the settings of cloud photo which clearly says that they will be in the cloud and the computer. But here's the question...

    If my IMac is low on space will start serving the original photos so that they are FAIR to Icloud?

    If so, what is the threshold of how much space it starts to do this?

    and if I recover my space again once on the iMac will be the original re download back to my iMac?

    Thanks in advance people.

    You may not use the setting 'Optimize storage' - select ' download originals for the Mac ", if you want than the originals, to be stored locally on the Mac and on iCloud.

    So that 'download originals to the Mac' is activated, all of the original will be kept on your Mac as well.

    It will not start original purge, as long as you keep "Optimize storage disabled".

    Optimization of the storage with the storage management is automatic.  Photos will download the originals if you need and remove, if more storage is needed. You cannot control this.

    I would like to support this thesis / store the originals in ICloud AND keep them on my mac.

    iCloud library is no backup. It is a synchronization service to keep all your libraries on different devices synchronized and updated. If you accidentally delete photo from your library, it is not possible to restore from iCloud. Deletion can be synchronized to all devices and iCloud, so the photo has disappeared everywhere.  You need a backup separate from your library on an external drive, even if you use iCloud photo library.

  • I need to download my photos on icloud on my device and stop the photos to upload on icloud because my icloud is full and I have a 64GB iphone

    I need to download my photos on icloud on my device and stop the photos to upload on icloud because my icloud is full and I have a 64GB iphone

    On your phone, go to settings > iCloud and make sure that you have downloaded all your photos on your phone. Then click on "disable the iCloud photo library." But even once, make sure that you have all the photos uploaded to your Mac computer or your iPhone.

  • My iCloud is full and I would like to spend on 5000photos on the hard drive and then remove them to iCloud.  How do you do that?

    My iCloud is full and I want to transfer most of my 5000 images in the cloud on the hard drive on my iMac which is about 10% of storage capacity.  How can I do this?  Thank you

    1. Photos > Preferences > iCloud > iCloud (original Dungeon) photo library
    2. Wait for them to download

    If you want to remove the cloud, you can do two things:

    System Preferences > iCloud > manage > photo library > remove and disable

    or

    iCloud.com > pictures (select and delete)

    Please note, however, if you enable iCloud library again at any time in the future on your Mac, all the photos on your Mac will download again. You may find that buying more space iCloud is the best answer for you.

  • Storage of 1 TB icloud is 'Full' instantly

    Hello

    I just bought a 1 TB of storage icloud and with the 1st attempt to copy a file, I got the message ' point 'Photos' cannot be copied because there is not enough free space. "

    How does the iCloud?  I bought the extra space in order to save my old NTFS hard drives so I could then wipe them and format them to HFS before returning data

    I am so - drag files directly from an external drive, so they are copied. It is true that the first case was big enough - 220 GB. So I went to smaller - 1 GB worked, 9 GB worked, but then 14 GB does not.

    Then I tried a few new smaller files - about 1 GB and they worked but then a record 2.6 GB failed.

    I tried 3 files totalling 39 GB of my local documents directory - and they moved (not copied) "instantly".

    What happens here? Is it because it's an external hard drive? Because it is NTFS? The fact that I have less than 1 GB of storage available on my boot drive it affect?

    Also - when I moved the data to local storage to icloud, when will I see the space on my local drive actually become free?

    In a perfect world, I really wish I could you select the 990 GB of several files on my external hard drive, and then drag to icloud only once - then leave from one day to the next, or more.

    Is this possible?

    Thank you

    If these data you "move" to iCloud aren't on your system drive, it is your question.

    iCloud is a synchronization between your local system drive and iCloud service. So if you copy data to an external hard drive, what you're doing is to copy it to your local HD and your iCloud drive.

    The message of the space isn't likely your system drive, icloud.

    The documents folder moved smoothly, because this content was already on your system disk. You just change the file locations.

    iCloud is NOT a hard drive in the sky that you can move data. It is a service of synchronization between the file called iCloud drive on your local system drive and iCloud himself.

    At the end of synchronization, they will have the same content. Same amount of occupied space.

    "In a perfect world, I really wish you select the 990 GB of several files on my external hard drive, and then drag to icloud only once - then leave from one day to the next, or more."

    N ° not like iCloud is currently being implemented.
