How do I free up local space on Canvas?
My Canvas II says I only have 0.1 GB of 4 GB free. I also have cloud storage I guess. if I try to send a playlist I get an error telling me I'm out of space. How do I free up space using Canvas...

Hi SamD1,
You may refer to the article below to free up space or use an SD card for additional storage.

Do other users have the same problem as me . . . that often the "answers" from Netgear do NOT answer the question?
When trying to upload a (modified) playlist I am now getting the message "Failed - your canvas is out of space".
I have only 342 pictures in ONE playlist. The Meural stats screen shows that my free space is 3.4GB out of 4.0GB.
Why am I getting this message and what can I do to fix this?
BTW - I can easily upload their sample collections . . . ? I want to completely wipe anything old on the Meural and re-upload my playlist.
Suggestions?
Thanks in advance.

I agree, Nergear’s answers seem to miss the point or are a stock answer to a completely different question. Not what I expect for my subscription.
Here is how I have solved the problem of running out is space:- in the IOS app, go to Canvas
- open settings (the cog icon)
- canvas settings
- manage art
From here you remove playlists from your local memory. You can always later send them to canvas from the cloud.

Thanks SamD1.
Here's the wirdest part. When I go to my android and do what you suggest, under "Manage Art" and then under "Playlists" it says . . . No playlists found. Go figure. I am sitting right next to my Meural watching pictures scroll by. Any ideas?
