Why Does My iPhone Think I'm Using More Storage Than I'm?
I went to concert recently and I wanted to take loads of photos and videos. To make room for all this, I decided the best way to do it was to delete my apps and music and then once I'd transferred the photos get everything back again. So once I'd moved all the photos and videos to my iPad, I deleted them all from my phone. When I went to get everything back again, it said I didn't have enough room left to do so. I looked at my usage, added everything up and it came to just over a megabyte. However where it says how much storage I've used it says I've used six megabytes and only have around 100 megabytes left. I no longer have enough room to keep everything I'd like on my phone. So why might it be doing this and how can I fix it?
Videos take up a lot of space/room. But something is way off. IPhones have 8, 16,32, 64 Gigabytes not Megabytes. One song can be 4-7 megabytes. A long vid can be 50-500 Megabytes. Go into Settings > About and see how many songs, vids, photos, apps, and the important one the Available section says. If Available is showing like 100-200MB, yeah you're bloated and full and you'll see a warning pop up on the screen soon. You need to offload onto a PC with your iTunes and then place back stuff one at a time. Happens to everybody. Best luck.

Something is obviously wrong, it happened to me too. Please restore your phone and back it up.
- Why has my iPhone been using more data than usual? I have a 2GB data plan that i have never overaged on. I moved to a different state for college, and after using my phone for a couple weeks here, i'm already nearing 4GB of data. I'm not using it any differently, just how i did at home. I used 1 GB of data in a period of 7 hours. Could someone please explain how this is possible? I have spoken to Verizon and Apple, who both were of no assistance. I have fetch completely off, and location services off as well.
- Why does my iTunes have more storage than my iPhone? I'm trying to download iOS7 on my iPhone 4 8gb but it said I needed 2.9gb to download it. I cleared 2.66gb on my itunes on my computer but on my phone it says i only have 2.7 and i have almost everything gone! No pictures, less than 230 songs and only 3 apps! Why isn't my storage capacity the same on both devices?
- Why does it cost an extra $100 for more storage in an iPhone? I can go out and get a 16GB flash drive for less than $15, but to put the same storage in an iPhone it costs an additional $100? Any idea why? Or are they just ripping us off?
