Using MacBook Pro to backup iPhone SE

I just bought my wife a new iPhone SE and am trying to backup the data from her old iPhone SE in order to have it ready to transfer to the new phone. However, whether I chose to back it up on the iCloud or on my MacBook Pro, I get message saying my Mac does not have enough storage.


MacBook Pro 15″, 10.14

There is difference in backing up to iCloud and MacBook Pro.

If you are getting message while backing up in MacBook Pro, then probably you don't have enough storage in Macintosh HD.


If you are getting message for iCloud


Hope this helps.
