Received iCloud full message. I'm on 2TB plan. Deleted and moved a lot of files over 200GB on my Mac and through web Browser. The storage won't update even after deleting "Recently Deleted" folder. Is this a problem on my end or Apple's server? Can someone at Apple update the settings?
Mac Pro, macOS 10.13
Hi chanhyuk,
Thank you for contacting Apple Support Communities. Based on what you stated, it seems like the iCloud storage was full and it did not change after you tried to make some more space available.
"You can free up storage in iCloud by deleting content that you're not using:
Before you delete anything, you might want to archive or make copies of the information you store in iCloud."
Please don't hesitate to let us know if the steps resolved your issue or if you need additional assistance.
Cheers.

Downgrading the storage plan https://support.apple.com/en-in/HT207594
What happens when you downgrade your storage plan
If your iCloud storage exceeds your new storage plan capacity, iCloud won't sync or update your information. iCloud updates again when you increase your storage capacity or delete information to make more space. To make sure you don't lose any information, learn how to back up what's in iCloud. To help free up space, learn how to delete information that you don't need anymore.
If you downgrade or cancel your plan, the storage change takes effect after your current subscription billing period ends.* If you downgrade to the free iCloud Storage plan, you'll have 5GB of storage.
How do I archive rest of iCloud(photos, backup & family) storage besides iCloud drive?
I tried downgrading to 200gb plan. My photos are 164gb and backup is 26gb and Family is 70gb. Not enough storage...
I view iCloud drive in Safari, there is nothing there. Yet storage takes up 1.74TB on the settings.
I moved all of iCloud drive files and still wont update to give me space.
Archive the iCloud storage data first , then downgrade the storage plan https://support.apple.com/en-in/HT207594
Family is 70 gb what does it mean have you activated family sharing account https://support.apple.com/en-in/guide/mac-help/mh3d6eb198/10.14/mac/10.14
Sorry, that didn't answer the question.
I have over 200gb therefore cannot downgrade from 2 T to 200G plan.
Why can't apple update their server and give me the space on the deleted files?
select the documents from finder > iCloud section > documents , use get info for each document , if they are of no use right click on them and move to trash , empty the trash .
There is nothing in iCloud doments folder. Trash is emptied. Yet the server won't update to give me the space.
Documents folder is empty in my phone, empty on my computer.
iCloud storage won't update after deleting a lot of files.
