storage on my iPad 2
I can't update my storage capacity on my iPad 2. I've purchased more storage through iCloud...isn't that the way?
iPad, iOS 5

Your iPad has a physical amount of storage, just like your purse.
When you purchase iCloud storage, you are buying "backup" in the cloud beyond the limited 5GB that Apple gives for free.
Your device still has the 16GB or 32GB inside it that it always had, and always will have.
If your iPad is full, transfer photos and video to the computer, delete unused Apps, delete data from Apps seldom used.
How to delete App data:
go to Settings
iCloud
Backup and storage
Manage storage
Show all Apps.
Turn the switch OFF for any app data you don't need to save. Photos, video and Map data are the largest files.
