How do I see what's in my icloud

I keep getting a message saying my icloud is almost full. How can I see what is in the cloud, in order to free up some space?

Go to Settings>iCloud>Storage & Backup>Manage Storage. This article provides some suggestions for reducing your iCloud storage: http://support.apple.com/kb/ht4847.

Welcome to the Apple Community.
You can see what's in iCloud collectively at settings > iCloud > storage & back up > manage.... You can only edit the data through the appropriate app (contacts, calendars etc)
For problems with 3rd party apps, contact the developer.

How can I see what is in my iCloud and on iPad and remove some stuff on on iPod mini

How can I see what is in my iCloud and maybe remove some from my iPad mini

You have to sign into your iCloud account at icloud.com from a computer to view your iCloud data. Also, be careful not to delete data from your phone that is being synced to iCloud or it will delete if from iCloud too. (For example, if you delete a contact from your phone with Settings>iCloud>Contacts set to On it will remove the contact from iCloud too.)

HT4890 How do I see what photos are in Icloud?

How do i see what photos are in icloud?
I have duplicate photos appearing in my photo library and in another folder underneath the photo library on my Iphone5. This is killing my free space and i cant delete them from the phone because I dont have that option within those folders. How do i delete them?

Good day AMELIASARAH,
One resolution to your issue would be to update your iPhone using iTunes on your computer rather than over the air. This requires much less space on the iPhone as most of the work is done by the computer. See this article for how to do it -
If you need more space for an iOS update - Apple Support
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.

How can I see what's stored in iCloud?

So I'm new to Apple and I'm a bit confused. I just did a search for something on my new rMBP in Spotlight and a whole load of files that I have on my PC, my work PC and a memory stick I used with my MBP the other day appeared in Spotlight, despite the fact I never copied them onto my MBP or (knowingly) made any choice to add them to iCloud, but that's evidently where they are.
So how do I manage what gets put on iCloud? I don't want these particular files in iCloud or on my MBP as they are old backups of things I did on my PC that I don't need anymore.
TBH it's mainly an OCD thing on my part, but any help would be appreciated!

iCloud only hosts your iCloud email, and syncs contacts, calendars, reminders, notes, safari bookmards and tabs, photo stream photos, and documentes and data from apps that are specifically designed to sync data with iCloud, such as iWork applications and TextEdit and Preview on your Mac. (You can see which ones are syncing data with iCloud by going to System Preferences>iCloud and clicking "Options" next to Documents & Data.) It isn't a cloud-based file storage service like DropBox, Skydrive, Box, etc.
Unless the files from your PC were in one of these categories and your PC was signed into your account and syncing with iCloud, the files didn't get to your Mac using iCloud.

HT4859 How can I see what I backed to iCloud or iTunes?

How can I see what is backed up to my iCloud? Pictures are what I am trying ti find.

Your photo stream photos will appear on your iPad in the my photo stream album; photos from the last 30 days will still be in iCloud but cannot be seen on icloud.com.
Camera roll photos are only in iCloud as part of your iCloud backup. However, you can't see them unless you restore the entire backup to your device.

HT4859 How can I see what in in my icloud backup?

Not all of my pictures were restored when reloading my iPad from a backup. Is there a way to see what was backed up to verify my pictures exist?

Many users have lost photos while preforming a restore from backup or upgrading the iOS. Recall, only photos in the camera roll are backed up to iCloud. There is a way to turn backups for camera roll on/off, perhaps these users had camera roll turned off.
See:
Settings>icloud>Storage & Backups>Manage Storage, tap the device's name and on the next screen, be sure Camera Roll is turned on.
IMPORTANT...
Photos should be regularly synced to a computer (like you store photos from a digital camera) using either USB via iTunes (on a mac use iPhoto or Aperture to move them to an album) or using photo stream - and then moved into permanent albums for storage. If using Photo stream, but sure to move the received photos to a permanent album. If you have been doing that, then you can sync those photos back to your device.
If you haven't been saving photos except relying on iCloud to store them in a backup, then that is risky, as many users have discovered. I'm afraid I have no advice in this case - there is no "cure".

How can I see what is inside my iCloud?

My iCloud has more than 5GB and I know it is backing up info that I don't need....I'd like to keep it under 5GB. How can I tell it what to keep and what to trash w/out having to tell it to trash a whole category of info?

You cannot do this.
and set the iTunes to not save to iCloud (to the Mac instead) and not use iCloud (switch off in System Preference);
That option is in iTunes on yoru computer, not System preferences.
It is also on the iDevice in Settings > iCloud.
I clicked iTunes sync, did that back-up everything from iCloud to the Mac, btw?
No.
That backs up from your iDevice to iTunes.
Note that a backup does not backup everything.
You still need to sync the iDevice thru iTunes.

How do i see what is stored on icloud to delete some of it?

I am struggling to work out how to access icloud and manage what I have stored there - there are images and apps that I want to delete but can't seem to get into it and edit.
Hellllp!

You can manage iCloud storage on iCloud-enabled devices.
On iOS devices, go to Settings > iCloud > Storage & Backup > Manage Storage. This shows you the items stored on your iCloud account, the total space and available space (at the bottom). To delete the data stored by any app, tap the app's name, then tap "Edit" in the upper right hand corner.
On Mac OS X devices, go to System Preferences > iCloud > and click on "Manage..." in the bottom right. The list of apps and how much data they store is the left column, and clicking on an app displays the data it stores, and allows you to delete that data.
Images and applications you have purchased or synced through iCloud (such as iTunes in the Cloud, purchased items, and Photo Stream) do not count against your iCloud storage.

How can I see what's on my iCloud?

I'm thinking of backing up on iTunes instead because I'm using up my storage, but I want to see the back-up before I delete it from iCloud. I also am concerned that it has a lot of aps that I downloaded for free and then deleted from my device because I didn't use them. Another possibility is that duplicate emails are being stored, which I'd love to get rid of.

You can't see the actual files included in the backup. You can only restore the backup to your device. The iCloud backup includes:
Photos and videos in your Camera Roll
Device settings
App data
Home screen and app organization
iMessage, text (SMS), and MMS messages
Ringtones
Visual Voicemail
When you restore the backup, it will also redownload your apps and other purchased media to your device. More details here: http://support.apple.com/kb/PH12519.

How can I see what is in iCloud ?

How can I see what is in my iCloud? ( This is so easy to do with Dropbox. )

Hello Ziatron,
Unfortunately, there is no simple answer to that question.
- You could see how much of your storage space is currently used by opening System Preferences > iCloud > Manage...
- If you want to see what files are currently stored in iCloud, I suggest to open the iCloud Drive app via a web browser at www.cloud.com.
Best regards,
David

How can I see what I'm actually video recording on iPad Air so that I don't include extra stuff at the borders of the image? It seems to automatically "zoom in" on the screen, but when I export the video, the picture isn't framed well.

When I try to record a video on the Ipad Air, the screen automatically "zooms in" closer than when I'm taking a photo. So I frame the interview and record it. But when I export it to post it or edit it, I discover that only the screen was zoomed in, the camera wasn't, so I have all this extra stuff around the edges of my frame.
I don't need to zoom in, but I do need to be able to see what I'm shooting--otherwise, as I'm videotaping, I'm guessing at my picture's framing. But every time I switch from photo to video mode, the screen "zooms in." How can I see what I'm actually recording?
I've been searching for an answer for this for a while, but I can't find any responses to it! Thanks.
