I moved my entire catalog folder into my external hard drive and deleted the original from my MacBook to make space, but that only created about 2.98 GB of space. I am a photographer if you are wondering why I have that many photos, and keeping that in mind I also thought maybe it's my Lightroom catalogs thats taking up space.
This is really frustrating as I searched my entire MacBook drive for any remaining photos, yet I can't find a single one even though it says that Photos are taking up about 50 GB of space on my MacBook hard drive. When I check what is taking up that space, its all photos, about 49.83 GB to be exact. Currently there are 0 photos on my MacBook drive, yet I keep receiving a message saying my disk is critically low on space. I moved every single photo on my MacBook hard drive to the external hard drive and deleted all the photo copies remaining on my macbook drive. Removing these from your computer will save a lot of space.I recently ran out of space on my MacBook Pro because I have a lot of pictures saved to it, so I went out and bought an external hard drive (2 TB). If you don't know what the file is or think you might need to eventually, don't delete it. Under 'Reduce Clutter', you can 'Review Files' and delete ones that are no longer necessary. When selected, 'Empty Trash Automatically' will delete Trash files after 30 days. When selected, only your most recent email attachments will get stored locally. When activated, your Mac will automatically remove Apple TV movies, and TV shows that you've already watched. Next, select the button under 'Optimize Storage'. Recent files and optimized photos will remain on your Mac for easy (and offline) retrieval, as necessary.
When checked, these options will automatically store those folders and files on iCloud instead of locally, thereby saving space. Consider checking the boxes for 'Desktop and Documents' and 'Photos'. First, choose the 'Store in iCloud' button under the aptly named 'Store in iCloud' section.
