I received a notice that I need to increase my iCloud storage because I am running out. I went into my iCloud. my iCloud mail has a grand total of 3 emails ( I don't use that account). iCloud photos has a total of 6 photos. (I don't use iCloud photos to back up my photos). There are no videos, no books, nothing in iCloud Drive. Yet I am using almost 3gigs of capacity in iCloud.
How can I find out what is using up all the capacity?
And how can I manage whatever is there?

Whilst one cannot see what exactly is in a backup, this is what iCloud backs up -- What does iCloud back up? - Apple Support.

Thank you for your reply. I did that. It just says I have almost 3 Gigs in "Back Up". I can't figure out how to see what is in there. or how to manage it. For example if there is stuff sitting there as "back ups" that I don't want to keep that is taking up a lot of memory?
Go too icloud.com via a browser on a computer > sign in > go to Settings > have a look at the color bar indicating what's taking up your storage.
