Resetting my iphone to free up memory?
I have an Iphone 4 with 8gb. I have come to this problem before, running out of memory but even if i have like no pictures it wil tell me it is taking up memory. I gave it to my friend who then reset it then restored it over his itunes and all my stuff came back with a large amount of free memory. But i definitely need advice because i don't know. I also don't have good access to a computer and if i do reset it and put it on itunes i don't want my stuff going on my mother's computer. I do have icloud and i can back things up there too so i was hoping there's someone who knows more about this then me and can please help me.
Hmm. I see where you're coming from.
Unfortunately, iCloud can't backup your media. So you can't put music, apps, videos, etc. Onto iCloud.
Maybe you can still use your mom's computer, but instead of putting your stuff onto her computer, you just store your stuff onto an external hard drive. Here's detailed instructions I found on how to do this:

Another way I can think of is to create another account on your mom's computer and put your stuff there.
- Will resetting my iPhone make me lose my photos? My iPhone 4 has been acting really strange lately. So I'm thinking if I reset my phone it'll go back to normal, but I'm scared that I'll lose my photos! Will all my photos get erased? Even though I have my iCloud back up on?
- Why does my iphone 4s settings keep resetting? My phone is not jail broken. I reset my phone every night and sometimes when I reset it when it comes back on some of my settings are reset like my ring-tones, brightness settings and mail settings. One time when I did this it acted like it updated. It has the loading bar and my settings listed above were reset. I recently restored my phone and it keep doing it.
- Which ios is best for iphone 4, 8gb with a 2.1gb of memory free space? I have an iphone 4 8gb. Which ios is the best for my phone? Now i'm using ios 6. Sometimes it gets lagged when opening app such as line, path or instagram. Does the phone memory affect the performance too? Currently there's 2, 1 gb of free space in my phone. I don't put any musics in it. I only use my phone for communication and social media and gallery as well. Anyone know well about ios and iphone, your help is very appreciative.
- What else can I do to free up memory? I really wanna get iOS7 on my iPhone 4, last week when it came out I only had about 35 mb left of memory (8gb phone) & over the week I deleted almost all my apps & over 900 contacts but I still don't have enough memory as its at 1.2 free right now! There's nothing else I can think of to free up memory & I'm not gonna delete any songs. Right nowhere usage is: 3.2 gb music, 287 mb Instagram, 167 mb Facebook, & 28.7 mb photos
