Where do i find out how much space i have available on my computer

I have a macbook pro and was wondering how to find out how much space I have available.  I need to download pictures off my external drive to format it.

Many possibility. If you want to see, how the disk space is used, click the -menu and select "About this Mac".
In the "About" panel click "More Info".
Then you can explore your Mac. Click the "Storage" tab.
It will show you, how the disk space is used for photos, apps, etc. for all connected drives.
This screenshot is for MacOs X 10.9.4.

    Open any folder on it and choose Show Status Bar from the Finder’s View menu.
    Alternatively, choose Computer from the Go menu, control-click the drive, and choose Get Info.

  • How do I find out how much space I have left on my macbook pro? I downloaded the new mavericks operating system and can't figure it out. Before the space would be at the bottom of my finder.

    I downloaded the new mavericks operating system on my macbook pro and I can't find out how much space I have left. Before the installation of mavericks, storage space left was displayed at the bottom of the Finder window.

    In the Finder, under the View menu there is an option to Show Status Bar.  Select that and you will see the info on the bottom of folders again.

  • How do find out how much space I have in iCloud? How do I see what I have there? How do I see how much a pay for it?

    It is probably easy but ...
    (1) If I want to see my account, how much do I pay each year, how much space do I have for storage what link do I use ... everything goes to support and explanations ...
    (2) How do I access iCloud Storage? What if I need more?
    (3) What is the difference between iWork and iCloud
    (4) I am worry about security with everything moving to iCloud ...
    How can I control the security of my contacts, back up space, etc.

    Go to System Preferences>iCloud - there is an indicator at the bottom of the pane showing how much of your storage you are using.
    The basic account of 5GB is free. Additional storage for Backup, Documents etc: additional 10GB, $20 p.a., 20 GB, $40 p.a., 50GB $100 p.a. (note that this is not iDisk-type storage for any type of file).
    iWork is a set of three programs available in Mac and iOS versions - Pages, Numbers and Keynote. iwork.com was an online storage for posting iWork documents - it's closed and its functions superceded by iCloud.
    Your iCloud account is as secure as your password, so make sure it's a strong one - at least 8 characters (12 is better), one of which must be lower case, one upper case and one a numeral (no odd characters), and not your birthday, dog's name, or 'password'!

    Disk space can now be seen in the "About This Mac" window. Click on the Apple icon, select About This Mac then click More Info... There you will find a Storage tab that will list all connected drives in a bar graph similar to how storage is displayed in iTunes for iOS devices.

  • How to find out how much space is left

    Hi,
    I know Oracle XE has a 4GB user data limit, and a 5GB overall limit. Using APEX you can find out how much space is left via the administration section.
    I'm going to upgrade to APEX 3.0 for testing. However APEX 3.0 will not show me how much space I have left since it's not explicitly written for Oracle XE. What query can I run to find out how much space I have left?
    Thanks,
    Martin

    The following should give you the same results as XE administration => storage :
    select total, allocated, 100 - allocated / total * 100 percent_free
    from (select 5120 total, sum(bytes)/1024/1024 allocated
    from dba_data_files
    where tablespace_name != 'UNDO')

    smash adams,
    If you're talking about hard disk space, open Finder, click once on your hard disk (left column) and look at the bottom of the Finder window.
    If you're talking about RAM, Finder >Applications > Utilities > Activity Monitor.
    Open Activity monitor and click the System Memory tab.

  • Where do I go to find out how much memory I have left?

    Where do I go to find out how much memory I have left?

    Use the Settings app.
    Settings > General > Usage
    You should see how much storage space is used on your device and how much remains. It takes a little while for the apps section to update but that area will tell you how much storage is being used by each app. Tapping on the > next to an app will provide information on how much storage the app requires and how much is being used by data and files.

  • How do I find out how much space OSX and applications are taking up on my HDD?

    I am thinking of moving my OS and all applications to a SSD to free up space on my MBP.
    My question is how do I find out how much space OSX and installed applications are taking up on my HDD so I know how big the SSD needs to be?  Also, what is the best way to move these files across to the new SSD once installed?
    Many thanks,
    Andrew.

    If you do command-click or right click on your hard drive and select get info, it will tell you how full the HD is.
    there are some apps that can show you exactly how big particular apps are

    I replaced my internal drive with a SSD for performance reasons a few months ago. There are a number of ways to move your files over to the new SSD. I am a fan of the clean install, which might take a bit more time and effort but results in a very fast and trouble free mac. An easy way to do this if you are replacing your internal drive is to put the old drive in an external drive enclosure. Then you install the new SSD and install mavericks on it. In my case I used Diskmaker X to make a Mavericks installer (DiskMaker X (formerly Lion DiskMaker) . Then you can reinstall your apps from scratch, and finally move your documents over from the external drive.
