About This Mac is showing wrong Storage information

When I look to see how much my App, Movies, Photos, Autos, and Backups the GB being listed is wrong. I have a 120 GB hard drive. My Apps are claiming to be 130.43 gb, Movies at 22.13 gb, Photos 18.48 gb, Audio 1.17 gb, Backups 217.9 mb. It states that I have 47.73 gb of 120.1 gb available. Is there a quick fix for this, or will Apple need to create a fix?

MacBook Air (13-inch, Early 2014), OS X Yosemite (10.10)

I turned off and on again the Time Machine backup feature, and I got my free disk space back instantly..

OMG, this is sounds a little bit funny,
