Mac Mail allows me to remove email attachments (Messages/Remove Attachments). This is useful as I often want to briefly view an attachment then save space by removing it (maybe after saving it to, say, Photos).
I am looking for the equivalent in Mail on the iPad or iPhone. When I receive an...
Hello. i am a little confused with how to go about doing the following. If someone could help and tell me exactly what to do, that would be appreciated:
1.). I want to have all my pictures on my Mac—including those from my iPad and iPhone.
2.). I want to be able to get the pictures off of...
On my devices, pictures from 10+ years ago that were 150k>400k are now 1.5mb>8mb. Someone sent me a pic that was 1.5mb on their device and when I saved it, it was 2.5mb. Videos are also increasing in size. Even more puzzling, when I edit pictures and remove 3/4 of the original the size DOES NOT...
Instead of storing all my media solely on iCloud, I regularly move my iPhone photos and videos to the Photos app on my Mac. If I have optimized storage activated, which replaces full-resolution media with smaller versions, I wonder if the transfer retrieves the originals from iCloud or the...

Apple Music documents and data is taking up 5.29 GB of storage on my iPhone, despite me having zero downloads on my device.
I have tried removing and re-installing Music to no avail. What is being stored? It seems pretty high to say I have no downloaded songs.
Hi,
I'm looking to get a new Mac and am having some trouble with specs; for context I am coming from a late 2015 MacBook Air (questionable functionality) so anything at this point is a major upgrade. I know this machine is definitely overpowered for what I require but I am looking at it because...
I work in film post production and we often receive footage from our clients on a bunch of HDDs (up to 40 drives in a cardboard box!). We're looking for a device, such as a docking station, that would allow us to conveniently connect as many HDDs as possible, simultaneously, to a single Mac...
I am playing games with Android Studio Emulator on my Macmini. How can I assign more storage for the Android emulator? As the screenshot shows "Total used of 16.00 G". How can I assign more storage than 16.00 G? I have searched a lot online but didn't find an answer!
Thanks!

hello, I am having an incredibly frustrating issue with my iPhone (Xs Max, 256, iOS 16.6). Last night, I tried to backup to my Mac, but the process reached 80% then failed. as it was late night, I figured I would back it up today. I had 7GB free storage out of 256gb last night. today I wake up...
I’m helping my sister buy a new home computer. She loves photography and takes lots of high resolution photos of wildlife and nature as a hobby. She wants a good computer system that will last her another 6-7 years and that’s not slow. She’s currently getting that spinning beach ball on her 2015...
Hello everyone!
I’m currently considering to get an iPhone 15 Pro Max, and I'm trying to decide between the 256GB and 512GB storage options. Some say that 256GB is more than enough, but on the other hand, I saw plenty reviews, where a person had to get a new phone only because of the lack of...
Hello I have the following dilemma. At the moment I have a 4K tv always hooked up with my Macbook M1 to watch movies and series I've downloaded. I am planning of buying myself an OLED for a better movie experience. Therefore I will probably also download larger quality content as REMUX files for...
I look at an SSD purchase decision as answering 3 questions:
What is the use case?
Which access pattern is typical for the use case?
Which SSDs perform well with this access pattern?
Moving from the second to the third question is ideally done with a good grasp of how the SSD should perform...
I was thinking of trading in a mid-2018 512gb/16gb MacBook Pro towards a base M2 Mac mini. With the education discount bringing the purchase to $64 and then the $100 gift card, I was thinking it would be a good deal. However, I have seen the posts regarding swap memory or slow storage with the...
Hello Everyone!
For the record my 13 pro is fully updated as of July 24 2023 and my total phone storage was at 91GB today. My phone is a 512GB model and I use it to make content on social media primarily for Instagram, YouTube and TikTok and I also consume content as well. So today for some...
So my job is purchasing a new machine for me next month and I've been looking into what to get. We use Apple products and even before they announced the new Studio at WWDC a few days ago I knew I was going to be getting a Mac Studio. I'm gonna max out the new M2 Ultra chip and (due to budget...
Hi,
I’d like to have some clarification and help on how iCloud works.
I have an iMac with 1tb of storage and 2 MacBooks with 256gb of storage. If Optimise is ON all my files on iCloud are downloaded to the 2 MacBooks and run out of storage. My aim is to NOT OPTIMISE the 2 MacBooks and just go...
Hi guys,
My storage keeps fluctuating on its own, sometimes I have 40gb free, next minute 5gb. My Mac says I have used over 300gb storage in Apps. Since I can't find out why this has happened I was hoping you could suggest what is going on.
When I look at the 'Manage' section in Storage it...
I'm in a bit of a pickle regarding storage for my new MacBook M2 Pro. I went with the 12/19 Core with 32GB RAM and 1TB SSD, as performance is crucial for my use of multiple programs and moderate video editing. However, I don't really need the extra storage and can always get an external SSD if...
