Apple Event: May 7th at 7 am PT
My macbook pro keeps giving me a startup memory full message. I ran disk utility and it says everything is fine, yet, "other" has taken up the majority of my memory. I don't even know what other is. What can I do?
Hi Sikider1,
You might want to look at the "Activity monitor" to find out which apps are using all the energy:

Some third-party (non-Apple) apps (like Chrome + unnecessary virus-checkers etc) can sometimes consume a large amount.
Apple has a support article with lots of useful info.
