Lightroom for MacBook Pro: No space left on my Macintosh HD. How can I create more space?

Question

Hi I use LightRoom on my MacbookPro.Since a few days, when I want to work in Lightroom, I get the message that my "Macintosh HD" is full, and that I need to clear space, or change my local storage settings.When I change my local storage settings, nothing changes, so I get the same message again.So I wander where exactly I can clear space?

The OP was asking a question about Lightroom Desktop (cloud) and @Sameer K answered with a screenshot showing the relevant dialog, albeit for an earlier version. I've attached a screenshot showing the dialog for the current version (LrD 8.x)

Hey @Ann29841500xrpn. Welcome to the Lightroom Community. I'll help you figure this out.

What specific version of Lightroom & the operating system are you working on?

In Adobe Lightroom, please share the screenshot of the options below from Preferences.

You can log on to Lightroom Web (https://lightroom.adobe.com) to check all the images and edits that finished syncing to the cloud before clearing any locally stored caches & data from Lightroom.

Let us know if it helps. Thanks!
