You can check the hard drive space under about this mac under the menubar.

Ok doesn't seem to be anything running that shouldn't been trying to
find out how full my hard drive is and can't believe I can't find
this. Where is it listed? also does anyone else have this problem.
When in the finder sidebar, I try to arrow down through the side bar,

Another suggestion is to check how many windows are open in the various
applications that are running. On the Mac, closing all windows does not close
an application, so make sure that you quit applications that are not in use.
After that, there's the good old Repair Permissions, and from time to

You can find Activity Monitor in the Utilities folder. In the Finder, press
command+shift+U.

Gotcha, and not to sound like an idiot, but where do you find the
activity list on a mac? Thanks

My general rule is that if I don't know what it is, I don't touch it. If it
really concerns me, I'll Google it to see what the process is for.
But usually I just shut down the ones that are tied to actual open applications.

Hey Brandon, no I have not checked the activity monitor. How do I do
that, and is there any activity you shouldn't shutdown. I remember
when I was on a PC I would have to check the processes but there
weren't certain ones you weren't supposed to shut down. Thanks

Have you tried checking Activity Monitor to see if any processes are hogging
the emory or CPU? Sometimes when this starts happening for me, I shut down a
few of the programs that seem to be taking the most memory.
