Common Confusions
| What you think | What's actually happening | |----------------|---------------------------| | "I deleted it from my phone and now it's gone from my laptop" | Sync works as designed β one file, everywhere | | "iCloud storage full but my phone has space" | Phone storage β iCloud storage | | "My photos are duplicated everywhere" | Multiple services backing up the same camera roll | | "I pay for 3 cloud services" | Pick one primary, cancel the rest |
Storage Full β What to Do
1. Check what's using space β Photos usually dominate 2. Empty trash β Deleted files count until trash is emptied 3. Disable duplicate backups β Pick one photo backup service 4. Offload old files β Move archives to external drive
