iPhone 5 back up restore. No space

[Tiffinx]

I'm trying to restore a backed up iPhone 5 on iTunes because the battery is suddenly dropping power in big chunks.  The problem I'm getting is that it won't let me restore because it's saying there's not enough space.

I'm not technical btw! :smileyhappy:

Not enough space to restore iPhone?

- An obvious way is to check if your iPhone or iPad has enough storage space left. If not, delete any unused files and apps to free space.
- Download and install the latest version of both iOS as well as the itunes software.
- Restarting always helps. Restart all your devices once and try one more time to see if it works.
- Security settings on your device could cause it. Disable them and try restoring again.
