How do I clear OTHER storage on my macbook air? 40 GB? I am being told that my disk is full, to the extent that I can't even update the operating system. When I try to manage my storage, it appears that 40GB+ is marked as OTHER but there is no way for me to see what it is or remove unnecessary items. How can I clean up my OTHER storage please?
