I have a MBP 13

I have a 250 SSD drive.

I cannot figure out how to find hidden folders.

In my Users folder it shows 188 GB

When I tally up all the data in the folders within the Users folder it comes to 88 GB. I cant figure out where the 88 GB is ??

On an 250 GB system 100 GB is a lot of unaccounted space....

Anyone know where I can look ? Are there hidden folders ?

Maybe your operating system?

Do you run time machine? starting with Lion, TM does a hidden local backup when you are not connected to your TM drive. I think there's a way to turn this off but I don't remember what it is at the moment.

I use Omni Desk Sweeper sometimes on my macbook to check out where the storage is being hogged and i delete accordingly...it's free and pretty easy to use if you want something that can break it all down quickly and simply.

Thanks bro. It was an old mobile me back up.

Omni disk is pretty cool.
