[QUOTE="p_rod, post: 1617926, member: 174646"] I have a 3 year old MacBook Air with a 120GB drive and About My Mac shows the following: Audio-52 mb Movies 20.3 GB Photos 11.9 GB Apps 7.47 GB Backup 228.5 MB and OTHER- 20.4 GB Totaled 60 Gigs used, 60 Gigs free. My question(s) are: 1) What is OTHER and how may I reduce it? 2) I have NO movies on this machine that I know of, certainly not 20 gigs worth. Please suggest the best way to track down these "movies" :-) I'd like to reduce the OTHER if possible and also get rid of the movies....I find that the less I store on this little machine the faster it runs. TIA, as always! Cheers! Pat [/QUOTE]
