Deleted all my files off my MacBook Air and it still says I have 84 GB of "other."
And yes I emptied my Recycle Bin, as well as the photo bin.
I only have the GoPro GoPro Studio, iMovie, and Lightroom installed apps.
I don't have a time Machine is turned on also.
It's in my head!
Very often rebuild Spotlight index will update the other category to its actual size.

Hello
so I have the 126 GB MacBook Air. My problem is that the other takes 87 GB!
So can I reset my laptop and restore the backup later like you do with iPhones to reduce the "other"?
I guess this could work, but I'm afraid something away...
I hope that there is someone who can help me!
Thank you!
There is nothing necessarily wrong with 'other' as long it's documents, etc. that you need.
Make a backup and a restore just grow what you have now. I would not recommend it.
If you don't think the number is correct you can reindex to see if that changes it: Spotlight: how to re - index folders or volumes - Apple Support

Searched these forums for a while and all I see is frustration-someone ' one has a slution to this ongoing problem, I tried the suggestion of wiping out cloud & synchronization still but no solution. Almost removed all applications, but always said "iPhone full storage" and in places-0 (zero) bytes of available storage. So many people have this problem, so I thought I would make a second time to a point - I tried of you "recently deleted" photos as well but - even managed to remove the u2 album that no one seems to want to
You have WhatsApp? If so delete it and reinstall.

Transfer of files RAW of MacBook Air
I recently acquired a MacBook Air and am still getting used to him and iOS. I transferred a large number of RAW files from my camera to the laptop. Now, I want to move to any external drive to free storage. I am able to open and view these files RAW using Photos and also using DPP4 (canon photo editing) for RAW files are certainly somewhere hidden in my laptop. If I try to transfer those files from the library anywhere, they convert in JPEGs.There must surely be a way to transfer RAW files without any conversion. Suggestions, please?
Select them, and then export the original unmodified
But that does not reduce storage needs - do you want to delete the photos - it is not possible to remove only the original RAW

Is it safe to remove files from my macbook air now that I have set up my time capsule and backed up with time machine? My boot drive is full. How can I access files of my time capsule once they are deleted from my computer?
1 n ° put them on a regular external drive and the value of Time Machine to back up as well; the files you want to keep should be at least two disks in case one of them goes down.
2. they will not be usable until the restoration.

I just downloaded Adobe XI on my macbook air, and now I can't save or print the PDF files. Don't let me do print - save as PDF, and if I do record as I get a message indicating that the file is corrupted. I had NO PROBLEMS of all do this several times until I downloaded the new version. I uninstalled and reinstalled it, nothing helps. I am super frustrated.

Print > save as PDF - use an excerpt (part of Mac OS X), so Adobe Reader should have no effect on that at all.
As for the error "file corrupted", simply uninstall the Reader app will not affect it. Follow these steps:
Mac/HD/Library/Internet Plug-ins
Trash the files AdobePDFViewer.plugin and AdobePDFViewerNPAPI.plugin
Mac HD/Applications
Trash the application Adobe Reader
[user] / Library/Preferences
Trash the com.adobe.Reader.plist file
To access the [user] / Library, hold down the 'Option' and click on 'Go' in the FInder menu.
Mac HD/Library/Application Support/Adobe
Trash the drive (full record)
Empty the trash.
Download the installer FULL here: http://get.adobe.com/reader/enterprise/
Quit your browser, and then reinstall the drive.
Run it from the Applications folder and agree to the license agreement.
You should have no problem with Safari PDF files download.
Unfortunately, ANY PDF file that says it is damaged.... You will need their trash.

Creative cloud deleted all my files
I was working as normal, today, connected to the cloud, and everything was fine. At one point, I worked on another file and saw that I got a sync error. Then I saw that most of my files are gone. I saw the last 2 have literally disappeared before my eyes. As the owner of all of our files at the office, I naturally took panic, because the folders on my computer endangered SHOULD make them disappear on computer everyone. Fortunately, it didn't.
I searched and found about 80% of the files in my trash, so I was able to recover immediately, but our most frequently used, file wasn't the case to find. After it turned off everything else on my computer, from and several reboots of the synchronization, it began to recover this file. Of course, there were 3600 files, so it takes about 2 hours to restore, what makes me completely unproductive for those 2 hours (so why I have the time for this type).
I contacted Adobe support and their first response was ' sorry, no one else reported it. " After pressure for a better response, all I could get was that they wanted was remote access to my computer. Considering that I work for a very safe society and want to continue working for them tomorrow, which is not produced. Now I considered them my log files so that they can maybe find the glitch... and it it up just for another team.
Suffice it to say that it is both a warning to all who rely on the cloud for their workflow and a problem that adobe needs to address, because if it happened to me, it can happen to anyone. Everyone knows something like that?
Yes, certainly aware of that as well. In fact, I very like that there are more controls for what people can do... to create and edit files, but not move or delete them, for example. In this case, which is not certainly did not. In fact, I'm the only person who has access to each folder in the share. Nobody deleted all our files. In fact it did not affect everyone sharing all... just me.
Thanks for the reminder that I need to clean with our archives. Fortunately, we are only about 1/4 capacity.

Hi there, I been using MacBook Air and IPad2 for awhile. Recently, I lost my MacBook Air and am interested open ICloud to check my folder/old records. Can I get directions to the opportunity to see my files in I have the cloud.
I hope that you are not in a surprise but a MacBook Air not backup to iCloud. It can record data in iCloud drive (if you saved it specifically to this place) and can synchronize Photos, Contacts, etc to iCloud if you had set it to do. You can use any computer and connect to https://www.icloud.com/ to see what is stored. I hope this is good news and that it contains what you hope.

I have deleted all THE files in my libraries FCPX rendering but have still 1.5 TB of unidentifiable used disk space. I don't have FCPX libraries on my 3 TB external drive. The total size of my libraries is 650 GB (when I add up the individual), but when I click on read the information for the reader, it says that I use 2 100 GB! It does not show that everything is on the disk. I went in each library individually in FCPX and deleted all THE files of rendering. Reducing the total size of several concerts, but there are still almost 1 500 GB difference.
I tried to copy all libraries on another drive and they occupy only 650 GB (with no unidentifiable used disk space). I'm a bit confused. Someone at - it ideas? I would like to release 1.5 TB that starting to use the new hard disk with only 650 GB and reformat the drive, but if there is some kind of hidden, important files on the original drive as FCPX needs to work properly I won't ruin the hundreds of hours I spent on editing. I hope that all makes sense. Thank you in advance.
I use an iMac 27 "with 3.4 GHz Intel Core i7, 8 GB of memory, NVIDIA GeForce 1024 MB graphics, OS X Yosemite 10.10.5, FCPX 10.2.2 3 TB Seagate USB 3.0 external hard drive designed for Mac and format Mac OS extended (Journal)
