delete sparse bundle on NAS fix max size

Dears, I've two different sparse bundles from time machine on my NAS. I want to delete the oldest this is not possible as it is in use by bands? How can I delete it?

As the older one was taking far to much disk space I want to maximize the use for the new one. How can I do this

Thanks, Coert

MacBook Pro with Retina display, iOS 6.1

Thanks so much. Apple Utility > device click > edit. I missed that somehow.

I really only use the Time Capsule to back up. It’s so convenient because of the way it does it automatically over the wifi for all the devices, partitioning and everything.

We have a mix of iPhones and Androids.

Thanks so much for all the help.
