I am supposed to get 5 Gig of iCloud Storage Space at initial Sign Up, but I only got 1 Gig.
PC-OTHER, Windows 7
Where are you seeing that you only got 1GB? Where are you seeing how much iCloud storage you have available? If you go to Manage Storage, do you see content being used? If you have another device using the same iCloud ID, then it has access to that storage as well.
In the following Apple iCloud Web Page:
iCloud storage pricing - Apple Support
It says, "When you sign up for iCloud, you automatically get 5 GB of free storage. If you need more storage, you can upgrade to a larger storage plan."
In the iCloud Settings Page, it says under the heading 'Storage':
You have 1GB of iCloud storage
I do not have any 'Manage Storage' link.
What iCloud Settings page are you referring to? How are you accessing the information. And I know about the fact you receive 5GB, I didn't ask that.
Hi sk686,
I see you have a PC running Windows 7.
Have you seen this article?
Web-only access to iCloud - Apple Support
Web-only access is a free level of iCloud service that's available to anyone, including people who don't own or use Apple devices. It includes access to Pages, Numbers, and Keynote for iCloud and 1 GB of free storage for any documents you create.
and further down…
Can I upgrade my iCloud storage?
Web-only iCloud accounts are limited to 1 GB of storage. You need an iOS device or Mac to access the full set of iCloud features and upgrade your storage.
That may explain your 1GB allocation.

Got a Mac. Same 1-gb problem.
