storage iCloud gap?

I was checking my iCloud storage last night (I have the free option of 5 GB) and my data usage was about 500 MB, leaving 4.5 GB available. This has been the case for some time.

Today, I noticed there is only 795 MB or storage to the left and I apparently I have 4.05 GB stored in documents? I don't see what's taking the extra 3.5 GB of data. My iPhone tells me the same information

Any help would be appreciated. Thank you.

  • storage iCloud blown by photos

    Hello

    My free iCloud storage began to look a little tight, as did the storage on my phone, so I paid for storage of 50 GB iCloud and had my phone storage optimization. Now my 50 GB is a little dominated by my 30 + GB of photos. Yes, I'm much too shy the removed button, but this is how I am!

    This is the price (I think I have to go again) to have my photo library in the cloud (Apple), or is there something I can do to limit the load on my storage iCloud account?

    Thank you

    Looks like you have a lot of photos and videos may be too.  If this is the case, Yes, you are right, you will have to pay for more storage.  Looks like the 200 GB plan will work for you.

  • purchase of storage iCloud

    MY phone at this point does not appear one of my photos on my iPhone except for about 20 of them, if I scroll down it says restore and I am sometimes able to restore more pictures on my phone, and all of my contacts, notes and text messages deleted. I can't upgrade my software, download apps, and when I get txt messages I receive messages is no longer and will clear in their own with in a few minutes, if I don't check my messages and open them. Has nothing to do with my settings, I believe that it is because my phone trying to make room, think that there more, since there is nothing to clear in my phone that my question is, if I buy more I have the cloud storage does anyone know if my phone is back to normal, as I kno expenses on the amount of storage I want to get sick have to pay every month , but I wonder if I get this amount of storage every month or if it's a time thing.  Thanks for all who are able to help me!

    If your appliance is out of room, additional storage iCloud won't help.

    It appears from your question, you could use iCloud photo library? If you are, you have to "Maximize pictures" is enabled in the settings > Photos & camera?

    You may want to consider not using iCloud photo library, but going back to import your photos to your computer and then synchronize the photos you want on your phone. It gives you more control over how and what photos get sync support in addition to having your film and the photo stream.

    If you don't use icloud photo library, you must go to settings > general > storage & use iCloud > manage storage (under storage, non-iCloud) and see what takes place. You should also remove SMS or e-mails that have pictures or embedded videos as they take plenty of room.

    Good luck

  • When you upgrade a storage iCloud plan you get to keep the free additional 5 GB?

    I am considering the iCloud the total amount of my photos and videos storage options exceeded the franchise of 5 GB.

    My question is - if I update the 50 GB plan, to keep the original free 5GB as well? I actually would have 55 GB of available storage total iCloud?

    I must say that I am very frustrated because as an avid user of Apple, I have 2 x 2 x iPads, iPhones and a MacBook Pro and still only got 5 GB of free storage iCloud to share between all devices. I don't think I should have to pay for additional storage, given the high investment I have with Apple products - it of crazy for me to buy a 128 GB iPhone and have only 5 GB free storage - but I don't see otherwise around having to upgrade and subscribe to a larger storage iCloud plan. Any ideas please.

    Does anyone think that Apple will increase their free storage plans and subscription at some point?

    If you upgrade to 50GB of storage from iCloud, you'll have 50GB.

  • Cannot take a picture even if I have storage iCloud

    I bought storage additional iCloud for my phone but when even can't take a photo because 'there is not enough storage to take photo' even if I got 48.8 GB available storage iCloud!

    Do not forget that iCloud that photo library is designed to reflect your library on all your devices. In order to have a lot of storage iCloud does not mean that you don't need any (extra) storage space on your iPhone.

    You can however use the "Optimize iPhone storage" setting located under settings, iCloud, Photos, Photos & camera or settings. When this option is selected, most of the photos that are stored on your iPhone will be reduced versions, good enough for display on the screen of your iPhone. This may, or may not create enough free space on your iPhone to take new photos.

  • Is it possible to pay per year for storage iCloud?

    Each month I receive storage iCloud beaked, with which I get a confirmation email. I never paid much attention, same invoice, same confirmation and all. This time, I read the fine print and it refers to annual payments.

    I was unable to find an option to pay annually on my iOS, Mac or iCloud.com device. This brings me a complete tour of the question. Yes, no, maybe?

    Thank you all,

    LTA

    Unless you are currently on an annual plan, using iTunes Store Gift cards for monthly costs in advance. It is possible to implement annual plans to iCloud.
