Therefore you need to make space on your disk. move files and folders that you don't need on
a daily basis to an external drive, movies, images and music often take up the most room.
Once you have confirmed your files and folders have been moved successfully then delete them from your Mac.
Never let your Mac run below 15-20GBs of free space, it needs room to do its housekeeping.
If you keep running the free space down you run the risk of your Mac locking up.
