"System" Taking Alot of Space

[Weaselboy]

TM would not just start doing that on its own if the Time Capsule got full. Something else odd happened. As long as you are sure the full backup exists on the Time Capsule, you should be safe deleting this.

Thank you!

Running DU gave me this, comparatively, MacOS is showing System as being ~70Gb with ~12Gb free on a 120Gb drive. Reindexing Spotlight hasn't helped either.

Are you in High Sierra and do you have Time Machine turned on?

 

[benjaminboxler]

Are you in High Sierra and do you have Time Machine turned on?

This machine is running the beta of Mojave, but the issue precedes it. TM is turned off, and running `tmutil listlocalsnapshots` confirms that there are no local backups either.

Hmmm.... I dunno then.

 

[patt_008]

From that output, I don't see anything wrong as far as space used. I think what is happening is just that storage readout graphic is wrong. Try running this command in Terminal to reindex Spotlight (give it time to complete), then check again.

sudo mdutil -E /

When the Spotlight index is corrupt it will cause that storage readout to be all wrong.

Thank you for your willingness to help! Can you take a look at mine?

Nothing seems off there. Are you having some specific issue?

Please help me, I am having the same issue. My system says it takes up 160 GB. I don't have pictures on here or anything. I am confused. Thank you in advance.

What macOS version are you on?

Do you have Time Machine turned on?

Hi I have 10.13.6, I'm not sure it's on. I've been trying to fix it myself but no luck.

 

[Weaselboy]

Hi I have 10.13.6, I'm not sure it's on. I've been trying to fix it myself but no luck.

Okay... let's try two things.

First run this command in Terminal to delete any local snapshots Time Machine may have made.

tmutil  listlocalsnapshotdates / |grep 20|while read f; do tmutil deletelocalsnapshots $f; done

Then if that does not fix it, run this command in Terminal and give it a minute or two to complete, and tell us the results. This command will show the size in GB of all the base folders, including system and hidden folders.

sudo du -d 1 -x -c -g /

Thank you, I tried the first command with no luck. When I put the second command in it said "Password:" and there was a key next to it. It didn't allow me to type anything.

Just type in your login password there. You won't see it as you type.

188 /Users

The only folder that is using a lot of space is the /Users folder with your personal files. Does 188GB for that sound about right? If not, you can drill down a little more with this command.

sudo du -d 1 -x -c -g ~/

I don't think it's right

 

[Weaselboy]

Do the local snapshots purge command I gave you with your password and see what that does.

Then also run the command I gave you in post #64.

 

[LunaB]

Okay I did both of those. I hope I'm doing this correctly, I don't want to waste your time lol

Something odd going on there in the user library folder.

Try this to drill down more.

sudo du -d 1 -x -c -g ~/Library

I see containers has a lot of GB but I don't know what it is.

My containers folder is less than 2GB, so it does look like something is wrong there.

Just keep drilling down.

This folder from that video convertor software looks like the problem. In Finder look in that folder to see what is there and delete it if you don't think it is anything you need. Empty trash after and you should be in good shape.

I'm trying to find it with no luck

Update: I found it! I sent it to my trash and now I'm checking my storage.

Ahhhh it worked! Thank you soooooo much! I am now down to 46 GB for system

Okay... try this. Click a blank spot anywhere on your Desktop to bring focus to the Finder. Then hold shift-command-g all three at once. A box like in my screenshot will pop up. Copy and paste the line below into the box then hit return. That will open Finder in the correct folder.

~/Library/Containers/com.geranium-soft.avchdtomov
