my macbook air has had pop up notifications saying the start up disk is nearly full, which ive just ignored.
now its said that my harddrive is full and may not receive any more messages.
How can i see what is taking up all the space
MacBook Air, OS X Yosemite (10.10.5)
One way is to click on the Apple logo in the upper left corner, then click About This Mac > Storage (on the top row).
Another thing you might do is click Finder, then do File > Find from Finder's menu. Where you see "Kind", replace it with "File Size" from the dropdown menu. Then choose "is greater than" to its right, then some number like, say 500 ... MB.
this is the result.
i want to know exact details.
like what is using 115Gb of data
OK. If my second post doesn't help (it should!), also see this article:

Download from the Internet OmniDiskSweeper and Grand Perspective (both free) and open them. They will show all of your files and the respective sizes.
