Why can't I reduce the storage my icloud email is using?

I have been trying for 2 weeks to reduce the amount of space I'm using on iCloud and I can't do it. I moved every email to a folder stored on my computer, I deleted all sent messages. The space I'm using has actually gone up! What's wrong? I have 2 days to do this. Help!
brad

maybe it's other data that is accumulating in the icloud storage.  Do you have a lot of photos in camera roll that are being backed up from an iOS device to icloud?  (Are you using any iOS device to connect to icloud, or only the mac?)

  • Why can't I reduce the height of my container box in the Lightbox Display composition widget?

    I'm using the Lightbox Display composition widget, I would like to place my trigger at the bottom of my lightbox, I've reduced the height of my image frame but the container box cannot be reduced accordingly. I need to reduce the height of the container box or my triggers will be hidden behind the box. Please advice, thank you.

    Hi,
    When you insert the light box display, by default it has 3 slides with different components like trigger, container, target, image frame, text box, next button, preview button. You have to change the dimensions for all components for these default 3 images one by one.
    Or you can delete 2 of the triggers (that will resul in deleting all of their components from the widget), then you are left with only one image and its components. Later, you can add more images to lightbox display.
    Resize the components as per following video:
    http://gauravr183.businesscatalyst.com/images/2013-09-26_1440.swf
    The steps are, after you have added the widget on the page:
    Delete the triggers.
    Then select Image frame, resize it. Move close button near it (the 'X' button), resize the text box,resize next and previous buttons and move all of these near the image frame.
    Then click on the image frame, till you get "Target" area selected, resize target area and container will be resized automatically.

  • Why Can't I receive mail in my icloud email address?

    I am not able to receive messages to my icloud email address, what's going on please?

    If this is happening on your iOS device, you might try deleting and recreating the account by going to Settings>iCloud, unchecking Mail, then checking Mail again.  Or, on a Mac, by going to System Preferences>iCloud, unchecking Mail, restarting your Mac, then going back and checking Mail again.

  • Why can't I change the Created Date on a file using Terminal?

    I bought a used Contour helmet camera to take pictures of the kids while they're skiing, and I cannot access the camera itself to change the clock in it (USB port is broken).
    I get videos from it just fine, but every time I remove the battery the date/time on the camera resets to January 2008, so my skiing videos end up someplace completely different from what I expect in iMovie.
    I thought I could change the Created Date with Touch in Terminal, but it only handles the Modified Date.  I know I can purchase File Date Changer 5 from the App Store to do this, but I'd like to know why I can't do it in Terminal.
    Anybody know?  Or know of a different way that I COULD do it in Terminal?

    Don't know about Terminal, but, because you are using 10.9.x and iMovie, try the iMovie method:

  • Why can't I see the body of my emails--new or old?

    My emails are coming through, but today, all of a sudden, I can't read any of them. When I open mail all I get is the From & To Line showing. The body of the email is blank--even old emails that I have read and saved are not showing the body of the mail.

    In another message FirstTry suggested this:
    Double click your home button. You'll see the mail button at the bottom. Hold it down until you see the " - " on the upper left corner of the button. Hit the " - ". Return to your home page. The problem is solved.

    Is this about Thunderbird or about an internet based email service?
    For Firefox you can use these steps to remove saved (form) data from a drop-down list:
    #click the (empty) input field on the web page to open the drop-down list
    #highlight an entry in the drop-down list with the mouse or cursor Down key<br>do not click the mouse or press the Enter key
    #press the Delete key (on Mac: Shift+Delete) to delete the highlighted entry

    I uninstalled Adobe reader, then did the rest of your suggestions but the problem remains. It is only with 3 emails that get resent daily with slight changes to the text. It is like most of the text has been removed from the email.

  • How can I reduce the storage needs for iMovie events (raw video)

    Good news - After borrowing an 8mm analog camcorder (mine died years ago) and an older digital camcorder (mine doesn't support A/V in) I have been able to set up a "bridge" to convert our old 8mm home videos to digital and import them to iMovie.
    Bad news - At 13GB per 8mm tape, plus the Mini DV tapes we also have, getting it all in the computer with room to grow is going to require at least 500GB of space, which I don't have. On hand are 120GB internal (MacBook), 120GB external (Time Machine) and 40GB portable.
    After my experience with the 8mm analog camcorder (it died, couldn't buy them anymore, tapes useless) I want to get everything digital in a standard format with backup.
    1) Is there any way to reduce the storage space required for the raw video (Events) without impacting image quality (already mediocre in the tapes converted from analog)?
    2) What's the best way to squeeze an hour of video down to fit on a DVD but still leave the video available for re-import/editing in the future? I'd likely mail the DVDs to my parents house or something to keep them separate.
    Thanks!

    Hi
    You can also use
    Yousendit (google it)
    where You can send 200Mb movies
    - You download Your movie to them
    - get an Internet address back ( url - I think it's called )
    - this You copy and send in Your e-mail to those that want's Your movie
    - and now they can get it from same address
    If You pay You can send up to 2Gb (if I remember right)
    BUT it will take time ! In most of my cases - burn it onto a DVD and send by snail-mail most often are a better solution.
    Yours Bengt W

  • Why can't I download the waiting songs on my iTunes? I have over 2gb storage free

    why can't I download the "waiting" songs on my iTunes ? I have 2gb of free storage

    I'm guessing because the servers or part of the network is still overloaded by millions of other trying to do the same.
    Some seem to think this helped:

    Hi everybody. I want to turn the HDR to on in the camera , but I couldn't . I tapped on the HDR to turn it on but it doesn't. Why?
    I'm using the manual settings on my camera. The settings are : Flash off - Resolution 15.5MP(16:9) - Self-timer  off  -  Smile Shutter  off  -  Focus mode  Touch focus  -  HDR  is off and won't turn on  -  ISO  Auto   -  Metering  Center   -  Image stabilizer  off   -  Preview  3  seconds   
    Quick launch  Launch only   -   Geotagging  off   -   Touch capture  off   -  Use Volum key as  Zoom  -  Sound  on   -  Data storage  SD card  -  Touch Block  deactivated. .   These are my manual settings for the camera . Why can't I turn the HDR Mode to ON? Anybody has any idea? 
    Thanks a lot.
    Solved!

    Hi Prodigy1,
    There is a limit of 8 megapixel, because the Exmor RS lowlight capabilities are optimized around this resolution. So change the resolution to 8MP or lower and it should work.

  • HT4623 why can't i see backup storage in cloud

    Why can't I see back storage in my icloud?

    If you have an iPad 1, the max iOS is 5.1.1. For newer iPads, the current iOS is 6.1.3. The Settings>General>Software Update only appears if you have iOS 5.0 or higher currently installed.

    iOS: How to update your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4623
    If you are currently running an iOS lower than 5.0, connect the iPad to the computer, open iTunes. Then select the iPad under the Devices heading on the left, click on the Summary tab and then click on Check for Update.
    Tip - If connected to your computer, you may need to disable your firewall and anitvirus software temporarily.  Then download and install the iOS update. Be sure and backup your iPad before the iOS update. After you update an iPad (except iPad 1) to iOS 6.x, the next update can be installed via wifi (i.e., not connected to your computer).
    Tip 2 - If you're updating via wifi, place your iPad close to your router to preclude getting a corrupted download.

  • Why can't I install the latest update?

    Why can't I install the latest update? There is an update available. I'm asked to agree to the terms. I do and nothing happens.

    There are two common reasons why an iPad can't be updated to the latest version of the operating system.
    The most common reason is storage space. You can try to free up space of your iPad.
    The second most common reason is the original iPad. For example, for iPhone, only iPhone 4s and the later can upgrade to iOS 8 and the higher.

    Why can I not disable the guest user in the 10.8.2 update? I have never enabled the guest user, but after the update, it was automatically enabled with a "managed" tag. It is not selectable even after entering my admin password to unlock the options. I was able to select the account under "parental controls", but again, could not delete it. Why Apple? Why?!!????

    SOLVED Ok. I actually was able to disable it. I had to actually log in as the guest user to make it accessible in the preference window. Then I disabled it and logged out. Apologies if this was obvious for some people, but I have had some sort of issue with something every update since Snow Leopard.
