hard drive is full

[Likayala]

Good afternoon !!! Guys, I’ve been struggling with this question for a couple of days now.

 I have Mac air  2015 .

My hard drive is full. I purchased a separate 1 terabyte hard drive. How can I save files instantly to this hard drive. 

I can't change the save location in Creative Cloud. 

HE doesn't see this option. 

But when I go into the system settings of the computer itself, this external drive is displayed there. How can I find a solution to this problem?

HEEEEEELPPPPPPP PLEASEEEEE!!! hugs to everyone<3

This is the wrong way to go about it. Do not save directly to an external drive! The risk of file corruption and other problems is very high. The way to do it is to save to the local drive, then copy it over.

Your overriding priority right now should be to clean out your system drive. Move everything you can to the external. The system drive should ideally just contain the operating system and your installed application, plus your user account. The user account is often hidden by default and  you need to tun on visibility in the OS.

A basic configuration of operating system and applications should not take up more than about 90 - 120 GB. Anything more than that can potentially be freed up.

The user account tends to fill up with all kinds of junk, deposited there by all your applications and accumulating over time. Often you can clean out 50-150 GB of unneeded junk.

After you've moved files off the drive, start by running disk cleanup in the operating system. That can sometimes be surprisingly effective. Next, there are free utilities that will show you exactly what fills up your drive and where it is. Not familiar with the Mac options for this.

Alriiiiight . thanks for your help!!!I wanted to clarify some points, can I delete:
photoshop (monter group).dmg - type: disk image
it is located in the documents folder.
And in the application folder there is already Photoshop itself...
or do you need to keep all these files to maintain the application?

A dmg is a downloaded disk image, often used for an installer. I'd keep it, because you may not be able to download an older version of Photoshop again. I'd move everything possible off of the internal.

Be aware that a 2015 Mac is considered obsolete and is no longer supported by Apple or Adobe. I have a 2015 15" MacBook Pro that is also just out of support, I'm going to have to replace it sometime soon.
