Fix problems with storage space in Cloud Backup

This problem occurs if you have fully used your online storage or if you do not have enough space for your online backups. 
You can either,

  • Upgrade to the next higher plan to get more storage. Visit the Norton website to know more about the features and benefits that are offered with our other plans. For assistance, contact Member Services and Support (or) 

  • Remove the previously backed-up files and free up some space

You can delete a backup set if it is no longer needed. You cannot delete a backup set if only one backup set is available. However, you can create a new backup set before you delete the old backup set.
