[QUOTE="Kngcloudis, post: 1338572, member: 227705"] Hey guys, I tried searching threads and I didn't find anything too specific on the topic (and if I am wrong, I apologize). So, my question is does anyone know/recommend/have tips in how to manage the Home User Folder Size? My user folder is 175 gbs and I really want to trim it down. Don't get me wrong I'm somewhat of a power user with a 30gb music folder, a 20 gb iPhoto folder, 40gb documents folder (vms), but my Application Support folder is a whopping 90gbs. Now, I figure that my iPhone/iPad backups are in there, etc. but is there a way to minimize all of this junk? It's just really obnoxious doing Time Machine backups and it being 40gbs when I haven't done much since the last update. Any ideas? I really appreciate any input. Thanks again! [/QUOTE]
