I've erased tons of pictures and programs from my mac and when i go to software update it still keeps telling me i can't update because my startup disk is full
MacBook Pro (15-inch Mid 2010), Mac OS X (10.6.8)
Visit The XLab FAQs and read the FAQ on freeing up space on your hard drive. Also see Freeing space on your Mac OS X startup disk. However, the best alternative is to put in a larger hard drive.
Note that dragging files to the Trash does not remove them. You then have to Empty the Trash to free up the space.
how do i clear space on my startup disk?
