I have over 100 GB of "other" on my hard drive. Help!!!!
I know there are many posts out there about how to clean up or remove things from the hard drive, but I have done all that I am comfortable with doing. I am not very techy savy, so I haven't done any of the Terminal commands (I'm a chicken when it comes to just typing in random commands). I have done the Spotlight re-index (It lowered me from 137GB to 104GB). I have also emptied my trash and download files. I have no idea what is causing this (my MacBook Pro is 5 years old and is running OS X version 10.9.4. I have 250GB on the hard drive and 4 GB of memory and am running a 2.53 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo - basic stuff here!). This is my breakdown....
I'm trying to backup my iPhotos to dropbox and it's the only file I'm syncing and it's telling me that I don't have enough space (yes, I've done the select sync and yes, I know some people say that backing up iPhoto is not a good thing, but I don't want to loose my photos if something were to happen to my laptop).
Any suggestions? THANK YOU :-)
