How do i clean out my icloud?

about a few days ago, my ipod 5s turned off and at the time, i had no idea how to turn it back on and i had no idea what caused it. I eventually discovered that it was my iCloud and it was taking up a lot of space. How do i clean it out so i can use my ipod again?

After I replied to your's of 16th I decided to find out (you know, men do not read instructions) and the solution is very simple.  Settings > iCloud where you get the option to delete all or part of content.  Good luck!

  • How can I "clean out" my iCloud storage on my iPad?

    Lately I have been getting messages saying that I con't have enough space in my iCloud storage to backup my iPad and lately my iPad has been acting up and going really slow, freezing, and closing out apps. How do I "clean out" my iCloud storage so that I will have enough room? I saw an option to delete the backup, but I don't want to do that because that deletes everything...right? And I need a lot of those apps backed up. What should I do?

  • I want to clean out my iCloud.  How do I do this?

    I would like to clean out my iCloud (actual iCloud, not just what my phone sends, etc.).  I do not have Windows 7 or higher so I can not download iCloud on my laptop. 
    Any other suggestions?

    The only current version of Windows that can not run iCloud Control panel is XP.
    iCloud Control Panel 2.1.3 for Windows Vista
    Most iCloud data can still be access via a web browser on your computer by signing into iCloud.com with your Apple ID & password.
    You would also lose Find My iPhone functionality.

    How can I lock out my iCloud?
    Because of forget my old password I have create a new Apple ID
    But when I wan to log out my iCloud,it call me to logout Find My iPhone.
    I had already forget the password that why I create a new Apple ID.
    Have any solution for problem like this ?

    Apps and Music are not from iCloud. Are from iTunes and App Store.
    You can change this from: Settings>iTunes and App Stores>Sign out and sign in with new ID, but you will have to pay again to download apps that you already have in your old account. Or leave it as it is to share purchases with your son.

    I just bought this ipad and cannot log out from icloud because i dont have the password.how can i log out from icloud?need help

    You need to return it to the seller and get your money back.  You cannot reset or use the device with another AppleID installed unless you know the password for that ID.
    If the device has been jailbroken, no one on here can give you any further help...the Terms of Use prohibit us from doing so.

  • How do I clean out the "Open With" dialog box when I right click an image?f

    Hi,
    When I right-click and image to open it in a program I get a long list of programs to choose from. Many are duplicated or the same program but different version #s like Preview. How do I clean out the dupes and ones I don't want and keep the ones I do?
    How would I add CS3's Adobe Camera Raw to the list?

    Do a search for details on cleaning up the "open with" dialog, it's been discussed before but I'm sorry I can't remember what the fixes are.
    I have duplicate choices too but have never tried to clean them up.
    Regards,

    Thanks for your helpful reply. If most of my website visitors are using Safari browser (( iPhone, iPad devices )) what type of flash should we use in the headers?
    www.i-phony.com
    I hope to use my previous flash designs.
    Best regards
    Since Apple designed iOS (per Steve Jobs' insistence) to be specifically incompatible with Flash, I wouldn't worry about what Flash content to use in headers for devices that can never, and will never, be able to see it.
    I stopped using Flash for anything in my websites about six months ago, converting what I had to HTML5 (MP4) and any new content that would have previously been done in Flash is going the be the same.

  • Hi ! I got an iPhone 5 from someone who I don't know the real owner. Then I wanna change iCloud on it, but I don't know the password of owner. How can I log out that iCloud account without password ? Please help me, thank you

    Thank you, please help me !

    How can I log out that iCloud account without password ?
    You can't.
    Return the phone to whoever you bought it from and get a refund. Without the previous owners password you will not be able to enter your own iCloud acount, and when you update the phone, you won't be able to re-activate it as it will be locked to the previous owners account.
    You should've checked the phone was not locked to someone else's iCloud account BEFORE buying it.

  • How do I sign out of iCloud on an iPad?

    My son has an iPad, but it's configured with my wife's iCloud account. Since he's a minor, we've used a 'family' account for music and apps purchases. I'm starting now to set up up with his own iCloud account, but I see that his iPad is already configured to use my wife's iCloud account.
    How can I sign out this iCloud account, to begin the process of creating a new one for him?
    I see under Settings - iCloud, there is a "delete account" at the bottom, which I'm very reluctant to use, since this is a valid account that my wife uses. SO - is using this button the equivalent of logging off, but not really deleting? Or will it really delete the account?

    Go ahead, tap the delete account button. Deleting the account from your iOS device will do just that, it will not delete the data in iCloud.
    By the way are you aware that iCloud and iTunes are different accounts. You can maintain separate iCloud accounts and hence separate contacts, calendars etc, etc, though share an iTunes accounts and hence all your music and apps.

  • How do you clean out a start up disk

    Hi, How do you clean out a Start up Disk to gain more room?
    Thanks

    For information about the Other category in the Storage display, see this support article. If the Storage display seems to be inaccurate, try rebuilding the Spotlight index.
    Empty the Trash if you haven't already done so. If you use iPhoto, empty its internal Trash first:
              iPhoto ▹ Empty Trash
    Do the same in other applications, such as Aperture, that have an internal Trash feature. Then restart the computer. That will temporarily free up some space.
    According to Apple documentation, you need at least 9 GB of available space on the startup volume (as shown in the Finder Info window) for normal operation—not the mythical 10%, 15%, or any other percentage. You also need enough space left over to allow for growth of the data. There is little or no performance advantage to having more available space than the minimum Apple recommends. Available storage space that you'll never use is wasted space.
    When Time Machine backs up a portable Mac, some of the free space will be used to make local snapshots, which are backup copies of recently deleted files. The space occupied by local snapshots is reported as available by the Finder, and should be considered as such. In the Storage display of System Information, local snapshots are shown as  Backups. The snapshots are automatically deleted when they expire or when free space falls below a certain level. You ordinarily don't need to, and should not, delete local snapshots yourself. If you followed bad advice to disable local snapshots by running a shell command, you may have ended up with a lot of data in the Other category. Ask for instructions in that case.
    See this support article for some simple ways to free up storage space.
    You can more effectively use a tool such as OmniDiskSweeper (ODS) or GrandPerspective (GP) to explore the volume and find out what's taking up the space. You can also delete files with it, but don't do that unless you're sure that you know what you're deleting and that all data is safely backed up. That means you have multiple backups, not just one. Note that ODS only works with OS X 10.8 or later. If you're running an older OS version, use GP.
    Deleting files inside an iPhoto or Aperture library will corrupt the library. Any changes to a photo library must be made from within the application that created it. The same goes for Mail files.
    Proceed further only if the problem isn't solved by the above steps.
    ODS or GP can't see the whole filesystem when you run it just by double-clicking; it only sees files that you have permission to read. To see everything, you have to run it as root.
    Back up all data now.
    If you have more than one user account, make sure you're logged in as an administrator. The administrator account is the one that was created automatically when you first set up the computer.
    Install the app you downloaded in the Applications folder as usual. Quit it if it's running.
    Triple-click anywhere in the corresponding line of text below on this page to select it, then copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C:
    sudo /Applications/OmniDiskSweeper.app/Contents/MacOS/OmniDiskSweeper
    sudo /Applications/GrandPerspective.app/Contents/MacOS/GrandPerspective
    Launch the built-in Terminal application in any of the following ways:
    ☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
    ☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
    ☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Terminal in the icon grid.
    Paste into the Terminal window by pressing command-V. You'll be prompted for your login password, which won't be displayed when you type it. Type carefully and then press return. You may get a one-time warning to be careful. If you see a message that your username "is not in the sudoers file," then you're not logged in as an administrator. Ignore any other messages that appear in the Terminal window.
    The application window will open, eventually showing all files in all folders, sorted by size. It may take a few minutes for the app to finish scanning.
    I don't recommend that you make a habit of doing this. Don't delete anything as root. If something needs to be deleted, make sure you know what it is and how it got there, and then delete it by other, safer, means. When in doubt, leave it alone or ask for guidance.
    When you're done with the app, quit it and also quit Terminal.
