My Macbook Pro shows that there are 44GB of backups stored locally for some reason. I do not use my macbook pro for syncing or backing up iOS devices, so I'm confused as to why it claims that such a large number of backups exist in this device. I've included a screen shot below.
Thank you.
MacBook Pro (Retina, 15-inch, Late 2013), OS X Yosemite (10.10)
Don't rely on that display. Select the disk's Desktop icon. Press COMMAND-I to open the Get Info window. Disk data are displayed in the top panel: Capacity, Used, and Available.
What is shown as Backups in your display may simply be Time Machine snapshots: About Time Machine local snapshots.

When I did a 'get info' on the mac hd it showed that I have 90GB free while the screen shot above claimed I only have 50GB free. Looks like that would account for the discrepancy. It's odd though that it would claim I had that much in backups though. Thanks for the help.
44GB of Backups?
