I don't know how you found that page, and I don't know what all that is.

Thanks for the additional information and the screenshots too kasey1031 - most appreciated.

You can navigate to your backups page by clicking on the dotted icon in the upper right corner of your homepage and then on the Backup option. 

To free up some space on your account, you'll need to delete your backed up devices/folders from that page.

Could you give it a go and let me know how it goes?
