Q: How do I delete photos that were in my Camera Roll from iCloud? I deleted them on my phone, but I'm still getting the notification that my iCloud backup is almost full.

After getting the notification that my icloud backup space was running out on my iphone5, I deleted 300 photos from my Camera Roll. But it didn't increase any space in my icloud storage. How do I remove those photos from my icloud storage without deleting the rest of the Camera Roll from icloud backup?

iPhone 5, iOS 7.1

    Does this involve iPhoto for the Mac in any way?

     

    If your backup space is full then the best souiton is to increase the amount of space you have by purchasing more since backups are critical to not losing things

     

    You can not remove things from iCloud directly

     

    Your question I believe belongs in the iCloud forum - possibly in the iPhone forum - unless there is somehting I do not see here it does not belonge here in the iPhoto for Mac forum
