What is taking up so much space on iCloud?

I'm starting to get very frustrated with my iPhone 4s.ever since i updated to ios 6, icloud won't update anymore. It says there's not enough storage. This is weird because i only have it set to back up my contacts and pictures, no apps or anything else. I only have 600 pictures and about 400 contacts.icloud says the next backup would be 6.6gb. I don't see how about 2gb of pictures and 1gb of contacts adds up to that. I have tried deleting the backup. So now, there's no backup for my phone. I have deleted everything.safari data, messages, calls, everything.nothing works. So please help me.

You can see how much space each app takes up on iCloud in the iCloud settings on your iPhone and try remove the backups that you don't need.

I'm having this same problem… All APPS are off / deleted from icloud as it still says " need 8.8 gb of data"…

  • Why is other taking up so much space on my iPhone? - 1 And more importantly, what can I get rid of to get more space? I've deleted texts, calls, voicemails, emails, photos, songs, safari cookies & data, AND notes. What is going on? It's taking up around 3 GBs (or whatever) and it's killing me.
  • Why is my camera taking up so much space? I have deleted all my photos (yes I deleted them from the recently deleted folder) but it still takes up over 2 gegs. I have an iPhone 5c
  • Why are my pictures taking up so much space on my iPhone I have an iPhone 4S w/ 16 GB of storage. I only have MAYBE 200 pictures at the MAX and, yes, a few videos only a few minutes long, but for some reason it says I have 8.2 GB of memory used on pictures. I just went through all of my pictures, and I was thinking there had to be some app or SOMETHING using a lot of picture memory somehow. P Please, can anyone give me a little help and tell me what could be causing this?
  • What is taking up so much space on my iPhone? I only have two pages of apps, 322 songs and only 52 pictures. I did the math and all that only takes up 3.6 GB (my phone is 8 GB but only 6.33 is available) so that means I should have about 2.5 GB left on my phone but somehow I only have 722 MB! So what is taking up so much memory and how can I get rid of it?
