    Hey guys, I bought a brand new macbook pro, has 500 gb on it, and apparently it is all being used up? I had a smaller hard drive on my PC and the same/similar programs and there was never any problems? What files are delete able? I.e language folders, printer folders? I am not sure what could be possibly taking up 500 gb?

    You tell us. You've obviously been downloading/transferring a lot of content to it. Do you download a lot of music, movies, etc? It's this user content that you should be deleting rather than system files.
