I deleted all photos from iPhoto but it is still using 30 GB of Storage on my MacBookPro
I recently deleted all photos from iPhoto as I ran out of storage on my Mac. I deleted everything, including the things from the recently deleted folder, yet my Mac still says I have 30 GB worth of images and videos stored in the iPhoto app. I have seen other people having these problems, and they were told to just put the whole Photos application in the trash and empty. Well I did that and it didn't do anything, as there was nothing in there from the start. Yet my mac still says I have 30 GB worth of data stored there. How do I free up those 30 GB of data even though I've already deleted everything?
I currently have a very large video from QuickTime Player on my Mac which is using a lot of storage from the System itself. It is not saved onto my computer, as it was too big. I have a feeling the large unsaved file from QuickTime Player and the 30 GB of iPhoto storage are related, but I'm not sure. I would like to free up the 30 GB in iPhotos so I can save the large video onto my computer, as deleting the video is out of the question.
I take large videos with QuickTime Player often, so I do not have any iTunes movies or any large files, as I'm used to needing a lot of free space for these videos. Below shows my MacBook Storage and my Photos Library
