Hi!

I found this stored on my MacBook Air, and it takes around 2 GB and that's a lot, because I need more storage on my Mac right now, I have total of 120 GB, and I have used 110 GB, and I need to free up. I don't understand why it's possible to use almost 90 % of the storage, and 70 % is impossible to remove or move. But right now, I want to move this file, "lightroom library.lrlibrary – and almost all the files from a folder called, "Lightroom". Please see screenshots below. I want to move them to an external hard drive, or upload them to iCloud because they are using too much space, and now I'm only using Lightroom CC with cloud storage, I have a total of 1 TB storage both on cloud storage with Adobe and in my external LaCie-hard drive.

I hope for help.

Best Regards,

tzercarnt

If you've migrated all of your images safely to Lightroom CC, you should be able to move the old Lr 5 catalog off your macbook air.

Have you set up your preferences in Lightroom CC to to download images to your internal drive? You can set that destination to be an external drive.
