[QUOTE="MacInWin, post: 1841476, member: 396914"] What does that mean? What version of macOS are you running? Assuming it's more recent version, are you saying that you moved Documents and Desktop to iCloud? If you did, there isn't any more space to save, the real files are now in the cloud and only recently accessed ones actually on your internal drive. Moving, or trying to move, your home folder to an external will be more headache for you than it is worth. I know, I tried it and went back. And if you have already turned on the iCloud storage of Documents and Desktop, then all that is in your home folder are links to those cloud documents. So, can you tell us more about what you are trying to do? [/QUOTE]
