Q: Dual boot

Hi all,

I have a McBookPro in Dual Boot system but I can't acces anymore to the "Apple" section because of a blank desktop and the message "disk is full".

I tried to access it using the Windows section to clean it, but when I'm in the HD Mac, I can't delete files (pictures) because of the spase of the Windows Trashbin.

I'm lost and don't know what to do and how to delete these files on Mac via Windows.

Please, can somebody help on this case ?

Many thanks in advance....

Kind regards to everyone.

MacBook Pro, OS X Mavericks (10.9.1)

    I don't know much about Boot Camp, but you need to make sure the Mac OS X section never gets over 85% full.  Boot off an external hard drive with a compatible Mac operating system installed if there is no way to clean the files causing the problem from Windows.  I've asked this thread be moved to the Boot Camp forum, in case there is.
