So you may want to start with this and then go and check those four locations. This will get rid of some but perhaps not all of those files. You could see there is a button here Remove GarageBand Sound Library. Now if you want you could go back to the Storage Manager, like before, and then you can select Music Creation. You can get rid of those two folders as well to save space. Apple Loops are bits of sound that are used in GarageBand and Logic. But there's even more because outside of Application Support in Audio you usually find Apple Loops and Apple Loops Index. So if you don't have Logic and you're not planning on using GarageBand you can get rid of this as well. So you could find those here and you could see that this one could be even bigger.

Logic is another app that Apple has that's the more pro level music app. But a lot of GarageBand stuff is actually filed under Logic. So if I'm not going to use GarageBand I can just delete that folder. I can do Command i and see that this is a pretty sizable folder here. Then go in your hard drive down to Library and in there are a few places here where you find GarageBand content. So go to the Computer Level in the Finder. If you need to clear up some space you could do so by getting rid of a lot of GarageBand data. Now if you rarely ever used GarageBand or maybe you just used it once to play around with it and right now it's not important. GarageBand has to store a lot of audio data on your drive. But the Storage Manager also has a Books here on the left. But if you go to Library, All you'll notice some of the books have a Cloud icon there meaning that you don't currently have them downloaded and other do not. In Books there's no downloaded section here. You don't have to store them on your Mac.

Just like you can reload TV shows and movies that you purchased later on. Of course it's easy to go back into the Podcast App and redownload podcasts. You could also Shift Click to select a range or Command A to select All and delete and clear off a lot of space. Then you could select one, click Delete to delete it. You can sort by size and you could put the largest on top. Now you can see all of your Podcasts here. But like with TV you can go to the Storage Manager here, the same way, but instead go to Podcasts. In Podcasts if you go to Downloaded on the left it's going to show you all of the podcasts you currently have downloaded and you can click here on the three dots and remove downloads. You click here to sort it by size and you can select one to delete it. This is going to show you a list of everything you've got downloaded. Now you have some easy access to get rid of some things here on the left. Then you click on Storage at the top and click on Manage. You can go to what I call the Storage Manager. Better yet there's an easier way to see these. Instead of Download you'll see the option to remove it.

But if you don't see this here, that means the movie is using space on your drive and you can click here. If you move your pointer over one you'll see a little Cloud icon indicating that you own this movie but you don't have it currently downloaded to this Mac. Now a lot of these may not be downloaded. In the TV App if you go under Library to either Movies or TV Shows you'll see a list of videos that you have.
