slowing down - particularly Mail application

[davidsvp]

is my HD overfull? it has 37.25GB capacity of which 26.74 is used and the computer slows down quite often tho it gets better when I restart, zap the pran and repair permissions - is there anything else to be done

should I delete pictures and music - moving them to an external HD to make more unused space? can I still get to them through iTunes and iPhoto if I do that?

Hi there and welcome !

the general rule is that you need 10% minimum spare, so about 4GB spare should be okay.

What Mac, OS are you using ?
