Hi all, First off, apologies if this issue has already been discussed and solved. I did quite a few searches and didn't find anything related to this specific issue I've been having. I've been running into constant storage issues with my work computer (2020 M1 MBP, Ventura). I'm unfortunately...

Hi all! I've got about 30k photos stored in iCloud which I usually access from my phone or iCloud.com. I happened to open the Mac photos app a couple of weeks ago and have noticed that my disk is now using about 250gb. I don't use the Apple photos app on my Mac as I tend to download them from...

I’ll be buying a Studio Max and trying to determine how large a drive I should get. Especially important as internal SSD cannot be upgraded (as I understand it) and will have to last a number of years. The internal drive will have system and apps; data, Time Machine, videos etc will be on...

Hi Folks, it's been a long time since I've been here so apologies if this is the incorrect area of the forums ... I have a late-2020 Mac Mini (M1) that I got to be a general-purpose computer (email, web, documents, etc.) but have also used it for testing code that I then run on my larger...

Hi, all. I have a 2014 Macbook Pro that I just purchased about a week ago. Bought it refurbished from Mac of All Trades and got it about a week ago. I'm not even sure it's ever been used; it was pristine. Anyway, it works great. The heavy stuff I use it for is Lightroom, Photoshop, and a...

When I restart my laptop, I have 30GB of hard disk space left. Over the course of several hours, the available space reported by Finder reduces to 0. When I restart, the free space returns. As an example: I saw my available hard disk space was at 21.1MB, so I restarted my computer. At 9:54am...

Hi there, recently upgraded to High Sierra on a MBP mid 2015 and I have the problem the SSD ist filling up after some hours after startup. This means starting from 50GB free disk space going to under 1GB. There are no downloads running, Just browser, Mail and Evernote. Tried daisy disk to locate...

Hi, I am having the following problem. I bought a mac about a month ago, 250 GB hard drive. I have not downloaded any significant amount of software or videos as far as I can think of. However, this morning it said it had 3 GB left. This was hard to believe - I assume if Macs typically...

Hello! I am running High Sierra 10.13.4 Beta (17E150g). After updating I discovered i wasn't able to load a Photoshop update. I started trouble shooting Creative Cloud and long story short I removed all Adobe/Creative cloud App/folder and ran the Adobe Cleaner tool to start fresh. When I went...

Hi all! Been wondering about this for a while. Photos is supposed to shrink its library automatically when "Optimize Mac Storage" option is set. But I have two users on my machine and a large library on one user does not shrink when the other user runs low on space. So, is there a way to...

I am hoping someone can help me. I just upgraded to the 2017 imac from a time machine backup. Before doing so I had around 200 GB's of free space but now my new system is completely maxed @ 1 TB! The system storage shows 289 GB's being used and I do not know what for. I can identify all my other...
