I'm using OSX El Capitan v10.11.4. When I check what is used/available it shows 124 GB in "other". Is there any way to determine what comprises this total?

Your Mac may need to have the Spotlight index rebuilt:
It may help determine what contents are there, & correctly order them.
Good luck & happy computing!
Since I seldom use Spotlight, instead use a find application such as EasyFind (free) and also
use Disk Utility, and Get Info on the Macintosh HD to see what the related unused verses used
capacities of the hard drive status are, usually users of Spotlight among several drives will go
and rebuild the Spotlight Index to help make it work better. One of the results has been to make
the details appear a little more accurately, when they may show a larger proven error in content.
Glad to hear you were able to resolve this issue, and the other provided Support page helped.
Good luck & happy computing!
