Please be aware that although we suggest leaving iCloud Backup ON, if you don't pay for extra iCloud storage space, you will not be able to backup your iPhone to iCloud. After doing some research, we've found that the new backup feature uses a lot more storage space than it used to.
So it's never possible to back up your iphone to the cloud unless you purchased more memory. That's a shame. And every time I've upgraded my phone the reps are always surprised that I haven't backed it up to the cloud and don't understand why the cloud back-up never works for me.
Today is my Granddaughter's communion. Last night my phone said I had no space in Icloud!!! Thanks to your video, I cleared my cloud and can now take a days worth of pictures!! Even a 67 year old lady can learn from your videos. Thanks for saving the day. I'm subscribing .....I'm sure there's lots more I need to learn. You CAN teach an old dog new tricks!!
He spent 80% of the time chanting “i will finally teach you how to use icloud” and then finally just says to open icloud on computer and delete a couple photos. It helped though, but make your videos short, straightforward and to the point. Thank you.
You have to go to recently deleted and delete it there then you’ll have more space! Cause when you delete a photo it’s not really deleted until you go to the app photos then go to albums scroll down and press recently deleted and delete all ur photos then you’ll have space!!!
Holy hell. Hey man I thought I’d come and check out your channel, and I’m honestly quite impressed. You truly are helping people with technology that need it. I wish you the best of luck man. I’ll be liking and subscribing. Have a good day :)
This was EXTREMELY helpful!! Im a brand new iPhone user and I was starting to hate it because of the pop-ups. I had no idea what a cloud even was! thanks a lot for this video!
So, my storage is completely full, and I was wondering if I put all my photos and videos on my computer and delete a backup I've done before, will my photos still be safe on my computer where I can eventually put them back on my iPhone if I get a new one? Thank you for making this video and explaining... you did a great job! :)
Thanks for watching! My understanding is that iPhone backup does not save photos or videos...so if you transfer all your photos and videos to your computer you should be able to put those all back on a new phone.
Today I learned that iCloud decided to share EVERYTHING - even from my laptop! I had word documents and things that don't make sense to share! I was wondering how (since I don't even take a lot of photos with my iPhone) my iCloud got soooooo full. Thanks so much!!!
Thank you so much, this video helped a lot! I've been using apple for more than seven years and could never figure out how to clear up space on icloud till now!
What if backups is taking all my storage- EDIT: while trying to delete my backup I just pressed mange storage and pressed on backups and deleted the data to the apps I don’t use anymore and it cleared my storage SO MUCH!
Hi: I deleted all my photos on icloud but I still see that "Documents" is using 2.5 gigs of space and I just can't find what those documents are nor how to delete them. Any suggestions?
This is the ONLY iCloud Photos tutorial I’ve watched where I finally understand the hell of iCloud Photo storage. I’m a 20-year IT professional an this terrible system got me beat down and waving the white flag for years. Thank you, I finally get it!!
For me when I go to gallery it says my story is almost full and it give me the option to buy more but if I got to setting and I got to storage I have a ton of space
Apple is so complicated when it comes to photo library and photo stream. But a good video. !!! Question. If I delete a picture with photo stream on. Will that photo be deleted on the other device ???
Nice video. Thank you! Now I understand the difference MY Photo Stream and iCloud Phot Library. (Sorry for my bad English from Holland and an old woman)
Apple factories don't manufacture computers with the Windows OS, but Google Photos is easily used/integrated into apple devices. iOS: Google Photos app via App Store, Mac/Macbook: The Google website itself. As a side-note MacOS has an integrated software called Boot Camp that can be used to easily install Windows on your desktop or laptop. This is completely built into MacOS and is legal and supported by their website.
Excellent video. Thank you. I appreciate the explanation of what goes on rather than only “tap this, tap that” instructions. Apple should hire you to make videos.
I have more than 4GB free of iCloud storage and BARELY anything on my phone, including 0 photos, and it still says backup failed due to lack of storage. Please help!
Thank you so much for this helpful advice! I’m going to do the computer part next! I don’t understand why anyone would take the time to dislike a video that was just made to help people. If this wasn’t the help you were looking for why not search for another video suitable to your needs?. People work hard to bring us good information with good intentions. I don’t understand why so many people have to be so judgmental and downright mean sometimes on social media. We all are coming to these places for help with something and it’s nice that people are trying to create content to help others. When people see all the dislike and negativity and sometimes bullying that goes on it prevents more creativity from others happening such as myself who really wanted to start a channel or even the existing TH-cam creators from going further because it doesn’t feel good to constantly be put down. Instead of taking the time to be so negative why not just scroll by or say this didn’t solve your issues and ask if they have any further advice? You might be surprised what kindness can bring into your life and the life of others. I know we are living in a world where the higher ups are trying to divide and conquer but just turn that volume knob down until you can’t hear it and be happy 😊 have more positive energy in your heart and mind and it will truly have an amazing effect on your life and every aspect of it from your day to day relations to social media experience. Kindness and compassion are much stronger than you can imagine and might surprise you with what it brings to you in your life just by bestowing it upon others. Sorry for the rant. I just know that we are all worth such a simple reminder. I hope everyone has a wonderful day and a beautiful tomorrow!
This video was so helpful! Thanks for sharing it! Since we have the pandemic i was having trouble with virtual school. Apps kept kicking me out. That was because my ipad didnt have enough space. Now its fixed because of this video! Tysm for making it!
therefore it doesnt matter if you have a 32 gig or 64gig phone, you still have 5 gig of storage unless you pay extra smh. i think the best thing to do is to keep all photos stored on the phone and back it up regularly on itunes. that way, youll be splitting storage between phone and icloud
Out all the videos watched you were Very Good. You were calm very explanatory, easy views of ways to actually see what to click on. Most easy for one to understand......Excellent
What happens when you don’t have money to pay for the next month .....so what happens to the data and photos that are in the cloud ??? Will they be held hostage ?????????😐😐😐
Thanks a lot as well for this eBook very nice... very useful and easy to learn. Never watch this site before, thanks a lot. I would like to send you some question, can you provide email? thanks
Thx for this. Been an iPhone user since the 4 - but never understood this. So kept them both off to be sure I wouldn't inadvertently toss photos I wanted to keep. Question - if I do use Photo Stream to say backup to my desktop MacPro on an external drive, if I then edit or delete the original on the phone will the Photo Stream backup file stay put, or will it delete there too? I'd rather it stayed put allowing me to delete files on the backup manually.
Hi can someone answer my question? Can you buy/upgrade your iCloud storage with the money on your account (so basically buy a giftcard put it on your account and buy it) because I only get the option to buy it with Visa or other Credit Cards (not even PayPal) !! Thanks.
Wellp I just asked my friend, he said that he bought a giftcard and as he typed the code in, he got an option to pay his iCloud storage with it, so idk if u didn’t understand me correctly or what but it looks like it works!

hello there when u deleted back up on your phone do you noticed the data in your phone erased?
Thanks for the video. Apple upgraded my storage to the 200 GIG automatically so this helps me clean the iCloud storage and downgrade it back down.
Hi: I deleted all my photos on icloud but I still see that "Documents" is using 2.5 gigs of space and I just can't find what those documents are nor how to delete them. Any suggestions?
Documents as in Word Documents, papers saved to your computer etc
Hi there, you are awesome. Thank you for helping me with this...PS. I brought 50GB

Hi Andy, your explanation is help me to solved my icloud problem, Great, good job and thank you.
When I logged into my iCloud account it was only 1 picture that was there but still the Storage space was still full!! Why??
because iCloud wants you to pay for that damn extra storage space ;-)

Did you look in recently deleted
Soybhhj

Apple is so complicated when it comes to photo library and photo stream. But a good video. !!!
Question. If I delete a picture with photo stream on. Will that photo be deleted on the other device ???
What if you don’t own a computer, how do we login/access iCloud.com? Safari on iPhone doesn’t open the same website.
Use desktop view in safari or try a different browser like Firefox, chrome, puffin, etc...
Nice video. Thank you! Now I understand the difference MY Photo Stream and iCloud Phot Library. (Sorry for my bad English from Holland and an old woman)
just use google photos😂🙌🏼

When i click photos under apps using iCloud, it doesn’t match with my screen and yours, can you help??
God bless this man! Thank you Andy 🐐
While I’m watching this..
*ipad storage full*
Very useful. Thank u. If I disable photo gallery from “iCloud storage manage” will I lose all my pictures?
What happens when you don’t have money to pay for the next month .....so what happens to the data and photos that are in the cloud ??? Will they be held hostage ?????????😐😐😐
Have you gotten an answer to this yet? Anyone?
Thank you so much this helped a lot!!!! You saved my life
My iCloud says “other” that’s what’s taking the most space
Nobodeh DontNeedToKnow wait if your phone is taking space you have to get a new one???
Just want to thank you for your super clear instructions - that actually work !
Boy, the new phones sure do use a lot of backup space.... jeez and they only give you 5GB "free" thats deffinately not enough anymore...
Thank you so much.i got more space now😎
Lets be honest. If you can afford Apple products, you really need to pay the monthly fee for more than 5gb. I have more RAM than that.
Thank you. I find your explanation very informative and simple.
Just pay for extra storage 😂
ʍմɾα ςαƘί not all of us have money snowflake
Yeah, ok earning doesn’t exist either
ʍմɾα ςαƘί shut up nigga

Thanks! Nice explanation.
I tried 1.25x speed
Thx for this. Been an iPhone user since the 4 - but never understood this. So kept them both off to be sure I wouldn't inadvertently toss photos I wanted to keep.
Question - if I do use Photo Stream to say backup to my desktop MacPro on an external drive, if I then edit or delete the original on the phone will the Photo Stream backup file stay put, or will it delete there too?
I'd rather it stayed put allowing me to delete files on the backup manually.
Hi can someone answer my question? Can you buy/upgrade your iCloud storage with the money on your account (so basically buy a giftcard put it on your account and buy it) because I only get the option to buy it with Visa or other Credit Cards (not even PayPal) !! Thanks.
Wellp I just asked my friend, he said that he bought a giftcard and as he typed the code in, he got an option to pay his iCloud storage with it, so idk if u didn’t understand me correctly or what but it looks like it works!
The Answer is yes I used with a Gift card and monthly Apple sent me an invoice USD 1 per month.
Thank you so much!!, you helped me a lot, I subscribed!!😁💗
Thank you!
