Q: In storage other shows it has taken up all the space how can I clear this to create more space

First understand what OTHER actually stands for:

The display may be incorrect due to a bug in the program that generates it.  Run a spotlight reindex which usually corrects it:

Download from the Internet OmniDiskSweeper and Grand Perspective (both free) and open them. They will show all of your files and the respective sizes. Transfer to an external HDD or delete files you no longer want on your MBP.

Do not forget to empty trash. Only then is space allocated for new data.

I know zero about iPads and iPhones.  Post your query on the iPad and iPhone forums and you will get advice from knowledgeable iPad and iPhone users..
