You can usually safely delete things like old cache files, log files, unused app installers (.dmg files), Trash contents, iOS backups you no longer need, and large temporary files. I personally start with caches and old downloads because they often free up the most space without affecting anything important. Just avoid deleting unknown files from the System folder itself, as macOS needs many of those files to run properly.

1 month agoOn a Mac, you can safely delete unnecessary cache files, old iOS backups, unused downloads, temporary files, log files, and applications you no longer use from System Data. You can also remove large attachments and empty the Trash to free up storage. However, avoid deleting system files or folders you do not recognize, as they may be essential for macOS to function properly.

1 month agoYou can safely delete temporary files, system caches, log files, old iOS backups, unused language files, and items in the Trash to reduce System Data on your Mac. You can also remove large downloads and uninstall apps you no longer use. Avoid deleting unknown system files or folders manually, as they may affect macOS stability. Restarting your Mac and clearing caches can also help reduce System Data safely.
