Even after buying 50gb on icloud drive, it still says no space for backing up.
Of course there is enough space
Please help me find out why it happens. Thank you!
iPhone 6, iOS 9.1
Welcome to the Apple Community.
Has your purchase registered, does it now report you having 50 GB.
Thank you. It now says 47.8GB available.
Just to be clear, is it now saying 47 GB and now backing up or is it still not backing up.
It is still not backing up.
How big does it say the next back up will be. Have you tried turning back up off and on again.
It does not tell me the size of the back up.
Thank you for your help. Although it's still not backing up, I'd like to leave the problem there and save time to do other things.
It will do, but if you don't want to continue that's OK.
where do I look to find how big the next back up will be?
I'M having the same issue and I can't update the playlists in my iTunes on my device either.
Settings > iCloud > Storage > Your Devive > Next back up size.
Thanks Winston.
My next back up size is 3.1 GB and I have used 135GB of 200 GB on my storage plan. icloud is set to automatically back up when plugged in, locked and on wifi but my phone will still not back up.
Any other suggestions on what is stopping the back up. My itunes wont sync either via back up or cable 😟 I'm wondering if the two problems are related
Does it say why it won't back up.
The message is this iphone has not backed up in 20 weeks. Backups happen when the phone is locked, connected to the wifi .... message
I have my phone locked, connected to wifi and plugged in, things seem to be syncing to itunes now but the only thing that does not happen is the backup so I manually back up to the computer. I have checked:
- the settings on the iphone and the back up is turned on,
- the phone is now syncing to the Mac instead of the PC
- the music, contacts, video .,.. are all turned on to sync.But the phone still wont back up. Any other suggestions?
Have you tried turning off the back up, deleting the old back up and starting again.
I can't make a backup because there's not enough iCloud storage
