14/8/2021 0 Comments Are Podcasts, Music or Movies chewing up your Mac's storage? Here's how to check and how to prevent this
I have seen a couple of clients recently who, when trying to work out what is taking up all the space on their Mac, have found that Podcasts is one of the culprits.
The Podcasts that they subscribe to and listen to on their iPhone (or iPad) have ended up downloaded and stored on their Mac as well - even though they don't listen to the Podcasts on that device. Here's how to check if you too have this issue, how to remove the downloaded Podcasts and how to stop the automatic download in future. And we look at how to check that same thing for your Music and Movies/TV programs. We also look at how to check what else is using up your storage.
