Re: [iPad] iPad is too full for IOS8

 

Thanks, I hadn't thought about that. I will do it as soon as I get a chance.

It's a simple process that eliminates the need for the download space on your device.  Here's an excerpt from an article describing the process:


Plug your device into your computer and wait for iTunes to open. On the upper right of iTunes' toolbar, you'll see the device's name appear, just like when you backed it up. Click it.

You'll see a page with all the basic information of your device. (I've already downloaded iOS 8 to check it out early, but your device will have a version of iOS 7 or — if you've been dragging your feet — something older).

Click Check for Update.

A box will pop up to tell you that iOS 8 is available to update. Select Download and Update. From there, it'll guide you through the process. Finally, one last box will pop up after the download, asking if you'd like to load the new update on your phone.

When it's time to update your phone, you'll be asked whether you'd like to back it up via iCloud or start the phone anew. Choose the former if you want all your settings, photos, and apps to transfer in the update.

4. Don't interrupt it.
Updates to your operating system are pretty big and therefore take a much longer time to download than an app. When I downloaded the beta version of iOS 8, it took around 10 minutes to download and update in full, and that was with a fast Internet connection. So schedule a time to do it when you won't need access to your phone for a bit. If you do interrupt, it could really mess things up. It may even require a trip to — gasp — the Genius Bar.

I've never done an iOS update using iTunes on my laptop but it looks easy enough.  I would ask someone who has done it that way as it looks like it would solve your problem.

I would like to upgrade but I don't have room. I guess I have too many photos, mostly. I will try to deal with it later.
