[QUOTE="littletog, post: 971012, member: 137747"] G'day to you and Happy New Year! Thing is, I just can't believe there is any way I am so close to capacity. I mean, 162,000 folders containing 640,000 files? Where are they? How can I find these folders so that I can attempt to delete them? When I go to the Finder and click on Macintosh HD, at the bottom it says 5 items, 3.31GB available. The 5 items are Applications, Library, System, User Guides and information, Users By right clicking on each one, and selecting "Get Info", I discover that the size of each are: Applications: 46.53GB Library: 8.29GB System: 4.33GB User Guides: 4KB Users: 23.28GB These add up to 82GB; my hard drive should have 232GB - so why is there only 3.31GB of available space? Grrr!! [/QUOTE]
