Apple Storage Conundrum
Not about the wonderful fruit that keeps the doctor away, but the Cupertino based Tech behemoth ;-)
I make regular backups from my iPhone to my MacBook Pro to keep things safe should I have a mishap with said phone. All good so far.....On looking closely a few days ago I noticed that I had hardly any MBP storage left! How could this be ???
Plenty of space beforehand and nothing downloaded of note. On further investigation it turns out that the contents of the iPhone have been stored in 'ios files' (as expected) AND within the App storage of the MBP HD, although this should be under 7GB's normally. When I look at said 'App storage' only the Apps show, but the apparently duplicated ios files are in there and taking up a large chunk of memory. I haven't done anything different than normal, but as ever you never know! Has anyone else experienced this ?
