My phone hasn't backed up for over two weeks, but I'm not sure why? It says my next back up size is 5.2gb, and that an additional 2.3gb is required to back up, and my current back up size is 2.1gb - so if I've used 2.1 and need 2.3, that's 4.4, right? And it's saying I have 2.9gb available, but when I press 'back up now' it fails saying I need to buy additional space.
I'm not sure what's eating up so much space? My photo library is 2.9gb, but everything else is tiny. Out of the huge list of apps listed in the storage info, only three or 4 are turned on, and these are a couple hundred mb combined.
It was saying I'd used 4.9gb and had 145mb available, and after hunting the net, I read that someone else was having the same prob, and fixed it by turning off camera roll, and then back on. I did that and got the previously mentioned figures (see pics)
So why won't it back up? I'm loathed to delete the back up and try again, in case it still won't do it and I end up with no online backup. But a mate with roughly the same camera roll size as mine (2.3gb) still has over half his available space left, and that's with an iPad on the same account too.
What gives?
