What happens if I delete my iCloud

Hello Penelopehusty! Thank you for writing in and congrats on your purchase of iPad Air 2. So let me get you squared away with your current iCloud issue, but first I have a few questions for you to answer.

Are you using the mail feature for iCloud?

Are you using Photo stream?

Waiting for your response.

Hi Penelope,

If your data, photos, music, documents, spreadsheets, etc are sync with iCloud and you delete your account you will loose everything! Unless you have backup of all files in your computer . Don't delete your account until you are 100% sure everything is backed up in your computer. Remember that not all apps store files in the iPad itself but at a cloud. iTunes Backup does not save these files. You need to save them one by one if necessary.

Cheers,

Alex

If you do it correctly, nothing will happen to your data. I would certainly backup with the computer first and then turn iCloud off.

Penelope,

The issue is your iCloud email. It seems that you use your mail frequently. I strongly recommend you to look at the affordable rates that will suit you. If I was you, I would select the 20gb plan that offers you 20gb + 5gb free storage that gives you a grand total of 25gb. That will only cost you .99 cents a month, less than a Starbucks coffee. Penelope, that will resolve your issue swiftly.

Where are you getting that information? The OP never mentions email. It is far more likely that her iCloud storage is filled with backups and photos. They also specifically stated they do not want to buy more iCloud storage.
