Problem of weird storage on Macbook?

I bought a macbook pro with a 128 GB autour in 2015 and everything seems to be good so far, however, recently I noticed a problem with my storage.

I think it's because I tried to dualboot Windows 10 beta, but I removed it from the boot camp a while. The storage is now stuck with 80 GB instead of 128 gb. Is there anyway to get the original rear storage or I need to buy new storage?

Hello!

Looks like you have a lot more space other that you probably should. I would take a quick glance at the info in the following article for tips and advice on how to free up some of this space:

  • Hello! Someone has some problem with the haptic on Macbook 12 "2016 function? It does not work on my Mackbook.

    I'm trying to figure if someone has my problem with the haptic on Macbook 12 "2016 function. The option is checked in the preferences system, but it does not work.

    Thank you

    Hello luigi10m,

    Thanks for posting on the Community Support from Apple. From your post, it looks like your haptic feedback does not work when you click using your trackpad and the setting is enabled. I know that this is a great feature and it is important to make it work. I'll be happy to help you.

    First of all, I would like to assure you that in system preferences > Trackpad > clicking silencer is not checked, that might help. In addition, it would be useful to reset the settings of the SCM. You can find instructions here: reset the management system (SCM) controller on your Mac - Apple Support

    I'll also include those for you here:

    1. Stop the Mac.
    2. Plug the MagSafe or USB - C adapter to a power source and to your Mac.
    3. Use the built-in keyboard, press shift-control-Option on the left side of the keyboard, then press the power button at the same time.
    4. All the keys to unlock, then press the power button to turn on your Mac

    Take care!

  • What is the difference between the iCloud, which I used on my two mac computers and that I have now with the 6splus of the iPhone? Never had a problem with the storage until I bought the iPhone (former android user).

    I've been using a mac mini to work (my church) and recently I bought a macbook. The iCloud is my favorite piece of this puzzle so I thought I would be nice to add an iPhone - now I use constantly questions with storage on my iPhone. So why now I have an iPhone that is changing my storage capacity?

    It is not clear to me if you have a problem of storage on your iPhone or in iCloud. You can go to settings > general > storage & use of iCloud. Note that there are then 2 sections on this screen - storage (which is on your phone) and iCloud. Each section has a storage management where you can see more details.

    If the problem is the iCloud storage, the following may be useful: manage your iCloud - Apple Support storage space

However, I noticed a slight increase in glitches since the upgrade - serious glitches. For example, the animation for arise Applications appears as two images, the majority of applications (including integrated) sparkle and on top of that, applications like Microsoft Remote Desktop and Parallels Pro 12 do not work right due to graphic problems (MS RD comes constantly creates an empty black window while in the analogies I was forced to power off the virtual machine dirty because all the options of the application itself that uses OS x) interface were flickering at which makes them unselectable).

    In fact, the graphics flickering and stuttering throughout what using Mac OS are quite widespread. Open a new window in Chrome, same thing. Same thing with Safari. Or iTunes.

  • Problem with 'other' storage.

    Hi, I need help with the obvious problem I have with my storage. If anyone can help to reduce the size of the other section, it would be great. I read through many threads gone although the steps recommended without result. (first aid run the utility disk, and cleared caches, restart mac, etc.

    After running Sweeper of OmniDisk, I discovered the iPhoto library and Photo library files are apparently huge, or they carry on size of file in disk utility. I read that this number is not possibly represented the size of the files? What is the file of Photos Library.photolibrary_prepare? I also run Oynx and erased the different caches, temporary files, etc. using the automation function. Thanks for any help, Toby

  • Problem installation el captain on Macbook air mid-2011

    Hello

    I have a Macbook air mid-2011 running 10.10.5 2 GB memory and 64 GB of storage that seems filled with "other" most

    I tried to upgrade to el Captain but did not to enough disk space to install it then stopped the download.

    I have since created more space on the computer, but now to the upgrade of the software, he said 10.10 is already downloaded.

    However, I can find a way to find the download file to complete the installation.

    Please help if you can.

    Thank you

    You will find your original download in the purchase page of the App Store. Will need you about 20 GB to download and install El Capitan. You will also need about 4 GB of RAM, so I suggest the RAM upgrade if you can. You can visit OWC to know what options allowing the upgrade of RAM and disk space since you really don't have enough.

  • Connection problem with the second monitor, macbook pro 2014, OSX El Capitan

    There are a few threads describing problems with two monitors, but I have not found a match.

    I like for the operating system ask login password once the lid is closed, no matter how much time has passed (even for a moment). Also, I work with a dual monitor. However, when my macbook is plugged into the monitor and I close the lid, the macbook don't disconnect but spends just primary monitors. Understand that this could be a feature and not a bug, I tried to unplug the monitor before closing the lid. But the OS seems not to realize that the monitor has been disconnected, and when I close the lid he didn't ask me for my password once that I reopen it. Does it also if I wait a bit (i.e. one minute) after disconnecting the monitor, but not if I wait a while (or 15 minutes), well that I've not enough highlighted how long is necessary so that it starts locking on my closing the lid. He does it with different monitors, so I doubt that it depends on the particular monitor. In both cases, I used the HDMI port.

    This is quite annoying, because I need to be able to disconnect safely in a short period of time, and I was not able to find a workaround on mine. Everyone knows this? Thank you for any help or advice.

  • Problem with Mail storage on the iPhone 6.

    OK, I have a problem with my mail. That is, it uses 1.2 GB of data. I cleaned all my emails and deleted all the big files. Nothing has changed. So I deleted all e-mail accounts. Still no change. When I plug my phone in iTunes, it says there 2.49 GB free yet my phone says I only have 337 MB of free space. Yes, I tried to sync and see if that has nothing and he did not. No idea what continues?

    Try to reset your email account in this order.

    First close your Mail application completely from the window of the selector app by double clicking the Home button and drag the email preview pane up until it disappears from the display. Then go to settings > Mail, Contacts, calendar > find your e-mail provider and click on the account. On the next page, delete the account. Then perform a forced reboot. Hold down the home and Sleep/Wake buttons simultaneously for about 15-20 seconds , until the Apple logo appears. Then go to settings > mail... and to add the account.

    iTunes and iPhone storage almost never fit. The amount of iTunes is an estimate, the phone is the exact amount.

    Different amounts of 'Available' reported by iPhone and iTunes

    If the above is not enough, you may need to do a system restore. First save your device via iTunes. Also import your photos on your computer and copy all the important data. Reconstruction of the support first test and test. If this does not help, you may need to restore as a new and reconfigure from scratch as the backup may be damaged. It is important to have your photos and your saved data separately from the backup. Here are the steps for a restoration:

  • Satellite Pro A60 with departure problems and weird sounds

    Hi all
    Three days ago, as I was using my laptop as usual. Then I restarted and then... just a black screen with an error message does not find a file any (I don't remember exactly) and making some weird sounds (such as the ' clicks')... sounds came the HARD drive I think because it's the right hand...
    I turned off it again and then some other error message (the black screen, white letters) asking for a file system... and weird sounds continued.
    tried twice... same thing... then after 20 minutes after being off of I it works... no error messages... but a long wait to get through the initialization of windows...
    now no more problem reboot... not more weird sounds, but with some performance issues... it has 1.2 GB of RAM and seems like he 'lost' speed... I can't use my iTUNES to listen to music cos is not working properly... I am now using winamp...

    Comments please... I got appreaciate it...

    Hi Luis

    On this path, it is not easy to tell what's happening. On this forum you will find several comments on missing files in the startup.

    You can try as a first step to restore the operating system on time earlier (before this problem started) by using the System Restore tool.
