iPad/iphone/iCloud storage help

[HawkMachine]

I have an iPhone and 2 iPads that are synced up. I also have an iCloud that I pay a monthly amount to.

My main iPad that we use to video kid’s sporting events is getting full. It’s 256 GB.

It looks like my iCloud account I’m paying for is 200 GB. I’m using 185 GB.

I’m not a moron when it comes to technology but I’m a moron when it comes to storage and Apple products.

I need to clear up space on this main iPad tonight as my son wrestles tomorrow. I’ve deleted some items to clear up space but I need a long term solution.

Question #1

If I delete a file from my ipad, does it also get deleted from iCloud?

 

[HawkMachine]

Question #2

Can I just move videos from my iPad to my pc?

If so, do those get deleted from iCloud?

Erase all your stored porn, that should free up a few million gigabits...

Get the AirDisk Pro App (free download)

Move the files you don't need onto your main computer system, or a big flash drive.

You open up WiFi file transfer in that app on your Wifi network, and it gives you the address to type into your computer web browser; then you can copy/move whatever files you want and subsequently delete off your phone. Keep the archives on your main computer, or get a portable drive to save them on.

Well played and yes I deserve it.

Scouts honor, zero porn.

There have been some home videos shot in the bedroom but the wife always makes me erase them.

At least I get to feel like a porn producer for 4 minutes.

Will transferring the files to my pc be kept in the cloud still or not?

Thanks

I don't use Cloud, so they may still be there and you'd have to delete them manually from the cloud storage.

I use a Synology personal server for my cloud storage and home syncing (syncs desktop and laptop files, so I basically have all my data mirrored on 4 HDs, simultaneously and accessible via the internet.
I used their DS app if I want to sync it to Apple stuff (but don't bother, I just use that app mostly)

Free and unlimited (depending on how many TB disks you want to install in it)

I have a feeling this wouldn’t free up space on my ipad though.

I could have 2 TB’s of iCloud storage but if my iPad is FULL I’m phucked.

I’m not using all my iCloud storage yet the other night the very end of a match it stopped recording as the iPad storage was full.
