How to free up space in regards to Documents & Data (I-Phone Storage?)
Can someone please explain to me exactly what Documents & Data mean in regards to I-Phone Storage?
I used the program "Phone Clean" because it is supposed to scan your phone and reclaim storage space by deleting junk files like cookies, browser history, or caches that have been stored on your phone.
But it didn't give me that much free space after I did the "deep clean" with this program..
--- The first picture is of my storage before I did the clean. The second picture is the amount of storage I have after I did the clean. (STILL ISN'T MUCH!)
Here are a coulpe of links that should help:

How many free disk space after install OS X lion (10.7) ?
Hi,
I would like to know that how many free disk space after install OS X lion (10.7) on MBA i5.
Many Thanks,
EricI want to buy MBA i5, I would like to free disk space of MBA 13" i5, Could anyone tell it to me? Thanks
As you're buing a new MacBook Air, it will come pre-installed with Lion. The actual installation will be somewhat larger than a "clean" Lion install as it will come with iLife preinstalled. Obviously, with an Air's limited storage space, you want to be sure that you have enough room for any applications and data that you'll want to keep on the SSD as well. It is fairly easy to upgrade the SSD on an Air:

The amount of RAM you have installed is probably more important. Fortunately, the newest 13" MacBook Airs all come with 4GB standard now. -
ikeep getting a message that my start up disc is full and i don't know how to free up space.. also when i o to download some files i am told there is no space left to download i bought this macbook pro used an receiver no discs.. what can i do??
You need to purchase an external drive and start moving some files to it or you can try trashing some files that you no longer need.
Download OmniDiskSweeper and see where your larger files are... you can move them to an external drive or trash them: it's up to you.
I would also begin, since it's obviously don't have backups, a backup scheme or two. See Most commonly used backup methods.
Good luck,

If you want more space or take certain things off then just manualy select what you want on it. I just check the shows I want on it the when I want them off I uncheck them and then resync he ATv to get them off etc.. Easy as pie....pi !
As for the purchased items not going away, scroll down to make sure that playlist is not checked on the computer under movies or shows etc... -
I've just upgraded to Lion and finder no longer shows how much free disk space I have left
Hi I've just upgraded to Lion and when im now in finder i can no longer see how much free or used hard disk space i have. anyone know how to turn this back on?
Hi Alan,
I think you are looking for this:
From the Finder, select View > Show Status Bar and like magic, your info is revealed like how it was with snow leopard at the bottom of the finder window.
If you have the finder window at the bottom of your screen then it might be below the screen, just move the window up. That happened for me when I revealed it.
Hope this helps.

How to free up space on internal hard drive
How do I free up space on my internal hard disc?
I have only about 40 gig of information on my macbook however it says I don't have space while I'm working on photoshop. I have deleted a lot of files on my mac that are already saved in my external hard disc but when I check my memory it says I have only 1.3gig space available out of a 120gig memory. This data is distributed between audio, apps, movies, pictures and other. I don't understand what 'other' is and it says I have about 76gig worth of data in the other part. Please I would need help on how to delete files from this 'other'. Cheers!All Mac operating systems use any free space on your hard drive as virtual memory, and this virtual memory plays a part in how well your computer performs. Because of this, the more data you have on your hard drive, the less virtual memory becomes available. Therefore, in order to help increase your Mac boot time, and keep your computer running smoothly, periodically cleaning your hard drive is necessary. To clean it up you want to get rid of any old or unnecessary files. You can do this manually by removing unused applications, emptying your trash etc.,

HT3680 how to free up space if startup disk is full
How do I free up space when the startup disk is full?
O Trejo, greetings;
I am not the Wizard but a mere citizen of Oz who wears green tinted glasses as all others do.
DaisyDisk appears to perform a similar function as OmniDiskSweeper which I still prefer due probably due to my familiarity with it.
I am not familiar with OSX Server, so I am off the hook on this one. If you go to the OSX Server forum, there will be forum members who will be able to address your query. This is the link:

I have a SimpleSave md1500h back-up hard drive that is getting full. I suspect it is copying my harddrive in total. I am afraid I need more room on it. How do I free up space on it? Can I simply Control A, Delete? I have looked in the manual and there is nothing that addresses this situation. Thanks for any help and suggestions.
The manual (and a pot of coffee) sometimes is better than an assumption. It's not copying the entire hard drive.
From page # 1: Note: HP SimpleSave does NOT back up your operating system or applications.
I would suggest you explore the md1500h hard drive, as it's likley it has created (with you help) backups based on several separate dates. You can read my previous reply (here). It details links to re-fresh the drive.

Freeing Up Space on The Hard Drive
1. See Lion/Mountain Lion/Mavericks' Storage Display.
2. You can remove data from your Home folder except for the /Home/Library/ folder.
3. Visit The XLab FAQs and read the FAQ on freeing up space on your hard drive.
4. Also see Freeing space on your Mac OS X startup disk.
5. See Where did my Disk Space go?.
6. See The Storage Display.
You must Empty the Trash in order to recover the space they occupied on the hard drive.
You should consider replacing the drive with a larger one. Check out OWC for drives, tutorials, and toolkits.
Try using OmniDiskSweeper 1.8 or GrandPerspective to search your drive for large files and where they are located. -
How to free up space on Macbook air
How can I free up space on my Macbook Air? I can't seem to find any large files that I can delete
keep large media files OFF your Air unless you know you need them.
NO computer is a data storage device, especially for static files (large one most certain) just sitting there on the computer "collecting dust"
In the case of a Macbook Air or Macbook Pro Retina with ‘limited’ storage on the SSD, this distinction becomes more important in that in an ever rapidly increasing file-size world, you keep vital large media files, pics, video, PDF collections, music off your SSD and archived on external storage, for sake of the necessary room for your system to have free space to operate, store future applications and general workspace. You should never be put in the position of considering “deleting things” on your macbook SSD in order to ‘make space’.
Professionals who create and import very large amounts of data have almost no change in the available space on their computers internal HD because they are constantly archiving data to arrays of external or networked HD.
Or in the case of the consumer this means you keep folders for large imported or created data and you ritually offload and archive this data for safekeeping, not only to safeguard the data in case your macbook has a HD crash, or gets stolen, but importantly in keeping the ‘breathing room’ open for your computer to operate, expand, create files, add applications, for your APPS to create temp files, and for general operation. -
How do I see how much free disk space I have?
I just upgraded my OS from Snow Lepeord to Mountain Lion. When I had the finder window open, it always told me at the bottom how many files and how much disk space was being used in that folder. Additionally, it told me how much free space I had on my hard drive. After the upgrade, it no longer does that. Did Apple get rid of this or is there an option I need to turn on? I looked around and couldn't find i
Well, you should see something like this:
If you don't then try this:
Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions - Lion
Boot to the Recovery HD:
Restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the COMMAND and R keys until the menu screen appears. Alternatively, restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the OPTION key until the boot manager screen appears. Select the Recovery HD and click on the downward pointing arrow button.
Repair
When the recovery menu appears select Disk Utility. After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list. In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive. If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported then click on the Repair Permissions button. When the process is completed, then quit DU and return to the main menu. Select Restart from the Apple menu.
If this doesn't work then reinstall:

How much free disk space after setup
I am just about to purchase a macbook and I am trying to find out how much disk space I can expect to have free.
I was thinking of getting the 80gb model but I also have a 40gb ipod which is two thirds full.
How much free space can I expect or should I go for the 120gb HD model?To give you an indication, my System and Library folders add up to around 12GB and my Applications folder is around 10GB.
While these aren't small they are rather typical as it includes the standard Mac OS X installation, full iLife 06, Adobe CS2, Microsoft Office v.X, Macromedia Studio MX plus a few other things. So you can realistically count on anything from 20 to 30GB for the OS and software. Yes you can obviously get less than that by optimising your installations. From there it's just how much data you have and what sort of data you use.
For most average users 60GB is plenty. If you do anything with video, have a large music library (mine is 10GB) and play games then obviously these will afftect your drive choice.
If price is not an issue then go for a 120GB drive, Apple or 3rd party. For cost effectiveness the best choice is an Apple upgrade to 80GB.
