How to delete blocked Backup on iCloud
Hi there,
i got a problem. Yesterday i changed my defect ipad to a new one in the Apple Store in Germany/Sindelfingen.
Now i tried to regain data via backup on icloud.
Unfortunately it didn't work - anyway - I saved my important data on other storages. So I configured my ipad as a new one.
NOW PROBLEM:
The old backup-data couldn't be deleted from my icloud account.
Error message says, that the file is in use or blocked by another device.
thats definitely wrong. So can u tell me how to delete the corrupted/blocked file?
it blocks a real huge amount of memory
thx for your help
Volker
never mind! I got it.

How to delete any backups that i have ever created ?
how to delete any backups that i have ever created ?
On your computer:
In iTunes go to Edit/Preferences/Devices and you'll see a list of all backups on your computer. Click on the ones you would like to delete.
On your phone:
In case you are backing up to iCloud, go to Settings/iCloud/Storage and Backup/Manage Storage/Backups/ tap on the device and scroll down to the bottom of the page and hit "delete backup" -
I have a new iphone and cannot delete the backup from icloud. It says that it is in use. I have read some of the other threads and it only seems to be haphazard solutions. Is there a definite way to fix this? I am not able to change icloud accounts.
Follow the steps in wjosten's post here: https://discussions.apple.com/message/13356770#13356770 (for Windows, substitute Outlook in step 2).

How can delete his backup safety and totally?
My friends and I share a same time capsule ( 4th gen, 2TB), so if one day he leaves, how can delete his backup safety and totally?
Thank you for your nice recommandation of this aritle.
The reason I ask this question is becasue someome has a trouble when they want to delete the buckup directly to trash. They just can not clear the trash bin which make their Time Capsule capability still occupied by the trash file.
And the aritle says we can delete the backup by Finder directly. Just confused. -

How to delete videos already in iCloud 'Backup'?
My iCloud 'Backup' of camera roll is too high as it has videos. I have deleted all the videos from camera roll on my iP4. However, when I backup to iCloud again, it is not deleting the videos from cloud. Wouldnt iCloud delete automatically (when backed up next time) the videos in cloud when it is deleted from the camera roll on iP4? Or the only option is to turn off backing up of camera roll altogether to delete the videos already in cloud backup?
I got a MobileMe tech support guy help me with this. He was kind enough to help me on this iCloud issue. According to him, it might have been designed like this on purpose. In case you accidentally delete anything from your camera roll, you can use iCloud to restore the videos or photos as well. However, he agreed that this is an inelegant way and he has already flagged this issue with the iCloud team. He will be submitting a suggestion from my end to see if there can be an easier way out.

Dear Sir,
Please help , how to permanentaly delet block diagram of the programme, so it will protected and show only front panel and no one can see the code of the programme.
please tell me steps or any example of deleting it.
Solved!
Go to Solution.If you have difficulties in following the link then here it is.
Make sure of these and remember
1. You can no longer make any editing changes or view the block diagram.
2. You cannot open or run the VI on any other version of LabVIEW, older or newer.
3.You cannot open or run the VI on any other OS.
One more thing, once it deleted then you will never able to recover it back so I sugges you to take a backup.
Thanks
Kudos are always welcome if you got solution to some extent.
I need my difficulties because they are necessary to enjoy my success.

How to delete all calendars from icloud?
So I decided it was finally time to try out iCloud, and immediately regretted this decision when my iCal, Safari bookmarks and Address Book all got messed up in different ways. I've managed to fix all these issues (by signing out of iCloud on all my devices and restoring my bookmarks and address book from backups) and I've deleted all old backups from iCloud so it's now showing 5GB of 5GB as free. And yet, when I went to icloud.com I could still see the calendars and contacts that were there before. I've deleted all the contacts, and all the calendars but one, but when I got to the last calendar and tried to delete it I got the following message : "you need to have at least one calendar that you own. To delete this calendar, create a new one."
The best part is, even if I create a new calendar there I still get that message when I try to delete the other one. Is it too much to want to simply delete everything off my iCloud? This entire process has been beyond frustrating. Any help would be much appreciated.Look like you have duplicate calendars. Find the name of the calendar on your iPhone and the color of the event labels. Then look at your computer. Find the one with the different label/name/color. You can delete that calendar.

If I delete a backup on iCloud, will that erase the data from that backup on my phone?
I had to get a replacement iPhone 5 because of a faulty power button on my first one. In order to keep my data, I used iCloud to backup my phone and transfer it to the replacement. Now I have a backup of my old phone and the replacement and that really limits my available space. (1) Is there a way to merge these together? (2) If I delete the old backup, will the data transferred from it be deleted on the replacement? Sorry if this is confusing and thanks in advance for any helpful information.
You can't merge backups. Also, deleting a backup only permanently deletes it from iCloud; it doesn't do anything to the data currently on the phone. If you no longer need your old backup go ahead and delete it.

How to delete all bookmarks in iCloud ?
Hi every body, could someone tell me how to delete all my bookmarks in iCloud ?
Thanks for attention and answer, VincentHey mzhill78
Remove you icloud contact information on all your IOS devices, go to the icloud setting on you ios device and turn off the addressbook syncing, when it asks you "do you want to remove keep the address on your ips device you say NO... So now your MacBook is the only thing syncing too the icloud.
Go to Addresbook and look for the menu option find duplicates.
After that wait for your laptop to sync this too icloud. to check give it about 2 min depending on how many changes log into your icloud account at www.icloud.com and check too see if the syncing has updated whats in the cloud.
If it has then urn on your addressbook syncing in iclouud settings on your IOS devices and all should be back too normal.
