Feb 7, 2015 8:46 PM in response to ameer7599by Matt Clifton,That's not normal - you certainly do have apps, but the built-in ones shouldn't take up that much space. Open up the Finder window, go to Applications and sort by size (click the word "Size" at the top of the third column). Can you take a screen grab of that? (To take a screen grab, click shift-command-3 - a screenshot image will save to your desktop).

Drag your drive's Desktop icon into the list. Wait 30 seconds, then delete the entry. Re-indexing may take several hours to complete during which time your computer will appear sluggish.
