Hi fellow smuggers, When I made a final Time Machine copy of the 512GB SSD in my M1 MacBook Air there was about 280GB free space. By the time I had migrated the Time Machine backup to the M4 MacBook Air (also 512GB SSD) the free space had reduced to about 220GB. Just now it was showing 181GB free space so I did a restart thinking that would get rid of some junk files and the free space would increase….but NO! Now it is saying only 150GB. 2 months ago I went to a Genius Bar with this problem. I eventually reinstalled the OS (latest version of Sequoia & updated to 15.6 a couple of days ago). Nothing very helpful but the possible culprit is Spotlight (please see the attached screenshot from a few minutes ago).
Finally I still have the M1 and it’s updating via iCloud and still shows about 280GB free space. I thought I would be better off with the M4 but at the moment that’s not the case. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Sussex Mac User Group" group.
