    How do I delete items from my iCloud that I no longer want?

    You can delete the data on your device and it will also be deleted from iCloud.  You can also delete some of it on icloud.com from your computer.

  • HT4847 Is there a way to delete items from icloud? I have downloaded a lot of books on my Kindle App, and want to delete them from iCloud once I have read them

    I have been downloading books through my Kindle App on my iphone and ipad. Since they save in iCloud, how can I delete them since it apprears my icloud data storage is full.

    Delete them from the device that downloaded them and they'll no longer be part of any back up.

  • Delete contacts from icloud, but not from iphone

    I want to delete all my contacts and calendar appointments from iCloud, but not from my iphone, and i still want to have iCloud turned on in the future.
    I have tried to delete the iCloud account from my iphone but when i log in to iCloud.com from a computer the contacts are still there even though i deleted the iCloud account.
    How do i remove these things only from iCloud?

    I fixed it, i had to turn off the syncing of the contacts and the calendar on the phone and then delete them from iCloud. Obviously if i turn on the syncing of these items again the contacts and calendar appointments will reappear in iCloud.
    So problem solved.

  • Can't delete songs from iCloud

    I recently deleted 100+ songs from my PC.  When I went to sync my iphone, all of the songs remained on my phone.  I also have itunes match, and wifi sync enabled on both devices.  Still, all the songs remain on my phone.
    If I turn off itunes match on my phone, the song placement is just random, I don't even know how it's sorting what to put on my phone, but just a random 50% of them are there.  So that doesn't work at all.
    In iTunes on my PC, If I click "On this iPhone" all of the songs are there.  If I go to my music library on my PC, only the songs I need are there.  I have tried syncing, restarting, (everything is updated) called apple care a couple times (I lost the call halfway so never got to finish) but it was nothing that they could fix in a 10 minute period.  Any ideas?

    1)delete those 100 songs from the folder on your pc NOT itunes
    2)plug in iphone and sync
    3) in itunes find those 100 songs, sort by the cloud icon to make this easier...
    4) right click on them and delete them.... another box will appear... Do you want to HIDE these items from icloud aswell? CLICK YES

  • Can't delete photo's from iPhone without deleting them from iCloud...

    I own a 16GB iPhone 5, every time I try to erase a photo from my iPhone it prompts me with a warning telling me that "this photo will be deleted from iCloud Photo Library on all your devices" this warning pops up in all sections of the photo app. Please help! I am currently running iOS 8.1.3.

    From the FAQ: "Deleting a photo or video from your Photos app will also remove the item from iCloud Photo Library and from your iCloud storage allocation. Photos and videos you remove can be recovered from the Recently Deleted album for 30 days. After 30 days, your content will be removed from the Recently Deleted album. Photos are backed up on our servers for up to 30 days after they're deleted from the Photos app." This is by design.

  • Is it possible to retrieve deleted items from the Pages App please?

    IIs it possible to retrieve deleted items from the Pages App? Thanks

    From within the Pages app, no. If you have an iTunes or iCloud backup that would have contained the file, and you are backing up Pages, it could be received via a restore using that backup (this would wipe out any newer data however).

  • How do you actually delete stuff from iCloud?

    My icloud says it's full, so I've deleted my archive, trash and sent items. That should have freed up at least half of my storage (I deleted it on the Web client and it shows empty folders on my iphone). But my MacBook still shows my storage as full. Help!!

    That is how you delete data from iCloud.  If your storage is not reflecting the change, the only reason I can think of for this would be iCloud storage buffering (see http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4873).  If that's what's going on, according the the article:
    "Your iCloud Storage allocation will readjust itself automatically, but only once another iCloud feature uses the previously allocated space."

  • Help deleting things from Icloud

    How can you delete items from your Icloud using your laptop to free space on your Ipad?

    Nothing in iCloud takes up storage capacity on your iPad except for the items that are already on the iPad. iCloud is a backup for your iPad, its not a storage drive in the cloud. If you want to make room on the iPad go to Setting>General>Usage>Storage. You can delete apps, but if you do, you delete the data as well. You can delete movies and TV shows. Most movies and TV shows can be downloaded again for free as long as you use the same Apple ID. And they are the biggest space hogs on the iPad anyway.
    You do not need your laptop to do this. But it would probably be a good idea to backup your iPad and transfer purchases into iTunes before you delete content in the iPad and then you don't have to worry about downloading them again, since all of your content will be in your iTunes library.

  • How do you recall a deleted item from Notes icon?

    How do you recall a deleted item from Notes icon?

    You can't.  The only way to get a note back is to perform a restore from a backup, which involves wiping the device and downloading a backup from itunes or icloud.

    i can add music and podcasts from my computer, but i cannot delete them from the ipod....i can delete items from specific playlists but not from the ipod itself.
    when my ipod is selected in itunes under devices, i get a main screen that has four options...
    summary
    music
    podcasts
    contacts
    when i select 'podcasts', it shows me the podcasts i subscribe to on the main screen, but i can't do anything ....they appear to be somewhat greyed out. the same is true with 'music' i can see the playlists on my ipod, but i can't manage them. however, i can delete anything from specific playlists on the left...but they remain on the ipod.
    how can i access the main middle screen to delete items from the ipod?
    before installing 7, if i selected my ipod in itunes, i could delete anything from the ipod itself...not just playlists.
    please help ASAP as i only have approx. 300 MB of space remaining.

    Click on the disclosure triangle in front of the iPod name.
    This will show you the contents of your iPod. Click on Music below the iPod name to see the songs on the iPod.
