Hello everyone,

Yesterday I have done a clean install on my rMBP late 2013 since my Mac really needed it.

Well, now my Mac is smoother, but I have been having some bugs which I can point out later.

To start, I would like to know how to make visible how much space I have left in my Mac. Usually, before on Mavericks, I could see it on any folder window, although I don't know how to do it here on Yosemite.

A big big bug is that for some reason some files I have backed up to a external HDD aren't being copied/read properly. Like, the iTunes folder I've copied is greyish, as in only "read" and the iPhoto folder the same. Cant even open them on the HDD. I can copy them to my Mac, but only some files will be copied, whereas other files will say they are being use so I can't copy/open them. Even normal docx files.

Another one, is that I feel I have less RAM than usual... I have A LOT of free space, even though it is 256gb I have 100gb which is a lot. Even with 10gb free I didn't use to feel slowness using Mavericks, even though it seems it is happening with Yosemite, or is it just me?

If you could help me on both problems I would be very appreciated. If not, just help as you can please.

Thanks

Edit:I already enabled the Folder/HDD size show with "Command + / "

If you could help me with the other problems I would appreciate.
