IPhone 4 keeps saying no more storage?

I've had my iPhone 4 for over a year and it is no longer turned on (no longer connected to a carrier anymore) and now I just use it for social purposes. My iPhone autmatically came with 5 free GB and I tend to get lots of apps and music so eventually it got full and it was bugging me about every 20 minutes saying that I have no more space so I bought 10 extra GB for $20.So in total I have 15 GB and my phone is STILL alerting me saying I can't take pictures because I have no more storage when in fact I do. I have 11.1 GB available but I'm not able to use them? Is there anything I do?

You're looking at the storage you have available on iCloud, but how much do you actually have left on the phone? It's possible that you've used up the storage on the phone even if the iCloud still has plenty left. Swipe upwards on that screen and take a look, and check the other apps, too.

  • Why is my iPhone saying I have so much storage used? I'm trying to download iOS7 and it takes 2.9 GB of space. My phone says I'm using 5.7 GB of the space but I have no music, no photos, no videos, and my apps only take up 288 MB. I also deleted all of my messages and and recent calls. Any ideas?
  • Why does my iphone keeps saying no available storage? I have the iPhone5 and when I open up my camera it says "Can't take photo there's not enough available storage" and it gives me the option to go to storage and when I do it says I have 3.2 mb available in storage and on my iCloud it says i have 9.4 GB free and 15GB total available. Why won't it let me take more photos? I bought the $20 iCloud storage thing a while back. And I don't even have that many photos, I only have like 400
  • Why does my iPhone 4S keep saying there's not enough storage? My 16gb iPhone 4S keeps popping up with a little box saying there's not enough storage every time I try to take a picture. I'm travelling atm so not being able to take pictures is pretty annoying. I have previously deleted loads and loads of things to make room for all my travelling pictures and I just don't understand. I've tried resetting it, is there anything else?
  • What to do about my iphone storage saying I'm using up way more photo storage than I actually am? My storage says I have 132 photos that's using up most of my storage; almost 3 GB. I have only 52 photos and 15 videos in my phone. It seems like it may be using storage from pictures I deleted, but apparently they're still using space? ? Has this happened to anyone else. I've taken my phone to an apple store, and I didn't get any answers.
