http://www.imore.com/icloud" title="iCloud backup, photos, setup, and how-to">iCloud[/url], or you just have a lot of photos and videos, you may run into issues creating backups when you start running out of space. How to free up more space is one of the most common questions I get asked by friends and family on a regular basis. Aside from clearing out old <a href="

Sometimes apps can store a lot of data in iCloud, leading to large amounts of storage being taken up. This is especially true if you download and use a lot of apps. If there are old versions you don't need, by all means delete them in order to free up storage. While a few MB here and there may not seem like a lot, it can potentially lead to lots of freed up storage when added up.</p> <p>Give it a try and then let me know in the comments how much storage you were able to free up!</p> </div></div></div><div id="comment-wrapper-nid-26280"></div><img width='1' height='1' src='
