Re: Accessible Program to Tell Me What is taking up so much space

For the 10 biggest directories, open up terminal and type the following
cd /
du -s * | sort -n | tail - 10
Just substitute The number at the end of that command for however many large 
directories you want displayed

Re: Accessible Program to Tell Me What is taking up so much space

2016-03-01 Thread Scott Granados
Just to add to this, don’t be afraid of the unix shell.  It’s very good that 
you’re cautious and take care but it’s not that delicate.  The du command for 
example is totally read only.  I understand the fear but it’s a powerful part 
of your computer and you may want to revisit that issue.  Again though if you 
really don’t feel comfortable then no pressure just a friendly suggestion.

Re: Accessible Program to Tell Me What is taking up so much space

2016-02-29 Thread Jonathan Cohn
The most likely suspects are TImeMachine if you have it enabled, and do not 
have the backup disk connected.
Bittorrent clients.

In any case, I love to use du 

the command 
cd / du -s * | sort -n | tail - 20 

While this command will take a while to run it should give you the directories 
that are the 20 largest.

Take care,
Jonathan

knows of an accessible program that will tell you what is taking up space on

Thanks so much I will search for it as I found a program called omni focus but 
not sure if it either is not totally accessible or what but it was a loss, not 
sure why this is so complicated as last I checked there was nothing on this 
computer. Thinking my downcast pods got downloaded or something like that

Hi!
There is a program called Drive Pulse.
I think it can do what you want and for me it was quite accessible.
I don’t remember their site now but i can check it out for you if you don’t 
want to search on google yourself.

Re: Accessible Program to Tell Me What is taking up so much space

2016-02-29 Thread Brian Fischler
I am a unix dummy and do nor want to mess around in there. Yes, emptying the 
trash was my first troubleshoot. Read about what to do on cnet and macworld or 
one of those sites.

   Don't know of one but when is the last time you dumped the Trash? I 
would look at that first.

Many believe that we have been visited

Hey all,

Had not fired up my Mac Air in awhile and I do not keep that much on it but all 
of the sudden it is almost full and I have no clue what is taking up so much 
space. Does anyone know of an accessible program that will analyze your hard 
drive and tell you what is taking up so much space. I was surprised to learn 
they suggest a third party program to do this, and there are a ton of them but 
not sure which one may be accessible. Any advice is appreciated. Thanks,

Re: Accessible Program to Tell Me What is taking up so much space

2016-02-29 Thread Scott Granados
Just use the du command.  It’s a unix command that is available under the hood 
in terminal.  If you need some examples of how to use it from your command 
prompt type “man du” with out the quotes.  This will display a man or manual 
page.  You can use this on the whole disk or sub directories and it’s very 
scriptable.

Hope that helps.

Thanks
Scott
