What is eating my storage space?

Hi guys,.

My Mac as a 750 GB HARD drive. He got full. So, I bought a WD 2 TB HARD drive to free up space on my mac for the WD.

I've moved many files from my Mac to my WD, but my Mac still has 1.75 GB left! How can I know what eating my storage space on my mac?

(I use FCPX)

Did you delete files on your system drive that have been moved and then you clear? When you move items to another disk, they are copied, so you have temporarily two copies - the original and new locations.

If their trash, you could download OmniDIskSweeper, which is a free utility and provide a detailed report of what is stored on your drives - sorted according to size.

  • What to do you when "your iCloud-storage space is almost full"?

    What are my options (other than the remuneration.99 $ per month) to avoid hitting the wall of 5 GB?

    Go to settings > iCloud > storage > storage to manage and then click on the device (if you have more than one synchronization to iCloud). You will then see a screen with a list of what is sync to iCloud. You can browse this list and uncheck the things that you do not need synchronization.

    You can also import your photos on your computer and delete all or part of your phone in order to free up space:

    You basically just need to manage your storage space in order to reduce the amount of space that is taken to the top.

    Try resetting your device. This will not erase your data stored on that device.

    • Press and hold the sleep/wake button
    • Press and hold the Home button
    • Press and hold both buttons until the display turns off and on again with the Apple logo on the subject.

    Alternatively, you can go to settings - general - reset - Reset all settings

    If that doesn't work, restore your device to factory settings. Please note that this will delete the data on your device.

  • What real storage space to start with?

    I tried to transfer a movie to my touchpad of your laptop but the transfer on my laptop window disappeared in the transfer process and I'm afraid there could be loss of storage. I reconnected my touchpad and the video file was not there. I did a full erase and discovered that I have 13.6 GB of available storage. Is it the same amount each 16 GB touchpad users begins by?

    It's the right amount of storage space that should be available. The operating system resumes ~2.5 gbs.

    Hello, I am using windows 7 Edition family, equipped with a 500 GB hard drive but about 270 GB of storage space has been taken by this hidden folder. disk of the local computer/C; / users/username/Appdata/local. I tried to delete it, but does not, the record is filled with subfolders named in alphanumeric format, as well as product keys, but all in blue fonts.

    Please if anyone can tell me how to fix or remove this folder or even part?, I would be very grateful. Thank you

  • storage space is 90% full. What steps should take?

    Hi all

    In my 'Users' database, storage space is 90% full. And automatic is activated. in this case I need to take action? and how long it will go I mean auto extend to unlimited (is it a limit that can stop auto extend on my system)


    Thank you

    If the data file is set to autoextend (files can autoextend, storage space only not autoextend) it will be autoextend to the documented maximum datafilesize of your unknown platform, usually 32 GB, or when the disk is full, whichever of the two. Depending on your backup and restore strategy, the data file is the smallest unit of restoration and recovery, then add another data file may be necessary.

    How to do this is still described in the Fine Manual for your unknown version, which is online at http://docs.oracle.com

  • storage space loser iPhones

    Hello-

    I'm in the IT Dept of my company.  We have several iphones everywhere in the company.  I have two specific users who have phones 16 GB.  It seems that since these two users have done the 9.3 update iOS, they lost all their storage space.  I was able to fix that backup to iCloud, reset the phone and restore.  The two returned to the neighborhood of 9 GB of available.  They both were doing the upgrade to 9.3.1 and it's the same thing.  From one day to the next, all the free space seems to have disappeared.  They gave me the phone and I did once more the thing backup and restore to recover their space (just did last week).  I just heard them today and they both lose the space quickly.  It disappeared completely and the other fell to 2 GB.  Nor said that they added something important for phones.  Looking at the space used in the storage to manage, add the number simply to zero.

    Nor has loaded the App Whatsapp.  Any thoughts on what could happen?  Both are models of the iPhone 6.

    Thank you-

    They use the flow of photos from iCloud, feature photo library or music Apple?

    If so, try disabling these features and see if the free space is always getting lost.

  • Additional storage space

    Hey you all I really need your help so that's

    I have a MBP early 2011 with a 500 GB I have now only 68.5 GB left

    1. what I want to do is pretty much everything to an external HD and be able to recover anything at any time with or without connection (wifi, bluetooth etc.)

    for example, I'm working on my MBP and need to work on graphics so I go to the large external HD, software works on it and then save it but without saving it on my MBP

    can I do this? If so, how? What do I need?

    2. can I just back up all my files and all the stuff on the external hard drive without them being on my MBP?

    I already have a lot of CDs and DVDs, putting a lot of my files about 50 + and I still have a lot more

    3. I have a time capsule 2 t with only 168 GB left how can I remove backups, but not the first 5?

    4. If I delete iBooks on my MBP they will remove my iPad and iPhone?

    Help, please! I really need

    I'm a bit confused about the "without a connection" - you need to connect your mac to your external storage space, period. Usually by USB.

    1. purchase a USB hard drive - get a big one - 2,3,4 TB

    2. connect.

    3 format correctly for Apple. Install any driver.  Disk for this utility.

    4. move any files you want here. You can put aliases - are these folders folder in your document (or music) If you wish. Seek and learn about aliases.

    Enjoy.

  • problem with storage space - iPhone 4 - 32 GB

    Hello, I have an iphone 4 32 gb. I'm having a problem with storage space. A few days ago, that even though I was taking 5 GB of empty space, a notification appeared that storage is almost full. I deleted about 2 GB of photos and videos. He showed me 2 GB of free space, but after 1 hour again the same notification appeared. As soon as I have emptied my space with about 1 to 2 GB by deleting photos or videos, it is completed with other data.

    How should I solve this problem?

    Thank you.

    What is the exact wording of the message? Could he be referring to iCloud storage?

    Also have you withdrawn your recently delete pictures and videos? Deleted ones is 'saved' for 30 days or more unless you intentionally delete/remove

    Why my iOS device I have more pictures that I can find?

  • Problem of storage space

    Hello

    I have a problem in my mac storage space... In 'about this mac' box it says I have 70 GB of movies, which is totally false!

    I checked many times and searched using formats, such as '.mp4, etc "for any film that might be on the system... There is NO.

    There are no movies on my mac because I keep all switch to an external hard drive.

    I do not understand whence this 70 GB, any help please?

    PS: I have something suspicious... I dropped over 70 GB of movies via iTunes 'OPlayer HD' App on my iPad

    Maybe this related question? The problem is that my iPad backup ' size is just 400 MB :/

    Thank you all!

    When you delete things in iTunes it moves to the basket, then you will need to empty the Recycle Bin to reclaim your space.

    In Spotlight search results preferences are selected as a criterion of movie search

    Or

    Try re-indexing of Spotlight.

    Go to System Preferences > Projectors > privacy

    Click on the button Add your HD quit System preferences.

    Restart System preferences, remove HD from the list of privacy.

    Spotlight should start indexing, give it time.

  • Hard disk - storage space Maximum allowed for Pavilion G7 2233 cl

    Hello world

    Long time lurker, first time here poster.  This forum helped me a lot when I removed Windows 8 and Windows 7 Professional installed for helping me find the right drivers for everything.  So thank you all for this.

    in any case, on my question...

    I'm modding my HP Pavillion G7 2233 portable cl.  I added a 512 GB SSD Crucial MX100, but I saw somewhere that someone who has exactly the same laptop replaced the DVD optical drive with a caddy to hold a second hard drive.  I want to add a second hard drive to use as media storage space, documents, video, photos, etc.  He will see a lot of movement between the download, delete, etc..  I didn't want my SSD doing so wear out prematurely.  I already bought a caddy for that.

    My question is what is the spaced maximum storage allowed for the Pavilion G7 2233 cl?  I couldn't find the info on the BIOS to tell us what it is.

    I have Windows 7 Professional installed (came pre-installed with Windows 8, but has been removed because it caused so many problems).

    1 TB is now the 'bigger' standard hard drive for your laptop (2 TB or 3 TB for desktop computers). There are bigger drives for laptops out there, but assistive technology that storage in a small space is still fairly new. Especially with new laptops, there is not a limit, in itself, the size of the hard drive, you can install.

    My uncle died in November and he had this NAS device in his office. On the back it says RND4210 ReadyNAS but do not know what version or model or something else.

    I got to download RAIDar, but now I have done that and it detects that the NAS very well on my network, it comes up with the following message appears:

  • I can I permantley remove apps from my iphone 6 they now taking up storage space

    How to permantley remove apps for the disabled, those who take the storage space

    As there is no way to disable the applications on an iPhone, I'm not quite clear what is your problem.

    To remove an application, press in and hold the icon until it starts to squirm. Then, press 'x '. You will be asked if you want to remove the right app. The icon will disappear. The app has been removed and is no longer taking place on your phone.

    If you're referring to the list of purchased apps, you can see it in the App Store, no, you can't delete the record of your purchase. However, nothing on this list takes place on your phone if it is not on your phone.
