Spaces was a virtual desktop feature of Mac OS X, introduced in Mac OS X 10.5 Leopard.It was announced by Steve Jobs during the opening keynote at the Worldwide Developers Conference on August 7, 2006. As of Mac OS X 10.7 Lion, it has been incorporated into Mission Control. Read also – Top Best Mac Cleaner. How To Free Up Space On Mac For macOS Big Sur Update. To make sure you have enough space on your Mac computer, simply click the Apple menu on the left corner of the screen, and click About This Mac. Then, select Storage. If your Mac is running out of space, use one of these methods to free up your Mac storage.
It's probably Filevault—Apple's encryption system. Encrypting data on your computer uses additional storage, and it can go down rapidly in minutes, as you experienced. This is because each and every system file, cache, log, etc. is encrypted, essentially doubling the amount of used space.
On my MacBook Pro 2015, I had this enabled without my knowledge, and my storage was also rapidly decreasing. I didn't know what to do. I discovered the problem when I plugged in power, which is required for Filevault to encrypt data. I wanted to turn it off, but decryption was required—a process that takes hours to complete.
In the end, I reset my Mac to factory settings with a backup of my drive, meaning I could disable this in the setup next time. If this is the problem, try decrypting your drive, and hopefully, you will gain easy storage.
If you don't know how: Game development midterm jam mac os.
*Go to System Preferences
* Go to Security and Privacy
*Click on File Vault, press the lock at the bottom of the window to authenticate, then turn it off to begin encryption.
All Filevault does is encrypt the contents of your disk and make one administrator password required to access your files if unaccessible. So if your computer glitches and your password can't log you in, or you forget that password, you cannot access your files at all.
Alternatively, to protect my files, I back up to an external hard drive either manually or through Time Machine. It works great. Apple's Filevault doesn't suit me since I don't have a large hard drive (128 GB) and I am not in a business, so my files do not need to protected in this manner.
I will write a follow up to this if you have any questions. But this should help you. If Filevault isn't enabled, I advise you book an appointment at the Genius Bar to run their diagnostics, because this should not be happening!

That's been around as long as I can remember, I think in the pre-OS X days as well. I can only test it in Classic right now, but yes, it works there.

Yes, it was already there before Mac OS X, and with international keyboard layouts as well.

I'm not sure how far back this goes, …
It goes back to System 1.0.
In MS-Word (only) it is CMD-SHIFT-<hyphen> to create a non-breaking hyphen. Defend your castle mac os.
Non breaking hyphen us unicode u2011 - I'm not sure if it has a normal keyboard way of entering it, but if you choose the 'Unicode Hex Input' input method, you can do opt+2011 to enter it.
A bit clumsy though.

Woah. I am surprised this isn't in here yet. This has definitely been around since the classic days, maybe even System 1.0 as another commenter suggests.
Option-Space also sometimes lets you type a space character when the spacebar would otherwise do something else, such as selecting the first item in a folder instead of activating Quicklook in the Leopard Finder (I think this hint was posted here). Ditto for selecting playlists in iTunes instead of play/pausing (I don't know if that has been hinted. Fair game if it hasn't).

I'm not sure how far back this goes, but on Leopard at least, pressing Option-Space on the US or US Extended keyboard layouts inserts a non-breaking space (U+00A0) rather than a normal space (U+0020).This has been the rule on French keyboards since.. but it's broken in Mail.app in Leopard (I never used Mal.app before TimeMachine and the fact that a big mail database is a Go hog in backups). Mail.app 3 inserts normal spaces instead of non breaking spaces and it's frustrating. In French you insert non-breaking spaces before '; : ? !' and » and after «. So you get punctuation marks at the beginning of lines and that's not very clean, to say the least.

In OS X, you can easily create new shortcuts.
Create a file called: ~/Library/KeyBindings/DefaultKeyBinding.dict
using a plain text editor.
Add a line like:
'^`' = ('insertText:', '‑'); /* nbhy */
This means 'Control-` generates a command to insert a non-breaking hyphen character.
You can also insert a whole word, which is good for words or sequences of words you type often that are long like:
'^M' = ( 'insertText:', 'Massachusetts' );
'^N' = ( 'insertText:', 'New Hampshire' );
which means Control-M (not Control-m) inserts Massachusetts.
You can also use 2 character sequences, like
'^s' = {
'^c' = ('insertText:', '✔');
'^x' = ('insertText:', '✘'); /* X Symbol */
'^1' = ('insertText:', '¹'); /* superscript 1 */
'^2' = ('insertText:', '²'); /* superscript 2 */
'^3' = ('insertText:', '³'); /* superscript 3 */
};
Then Control-s followed by Control-c enters a check mark, etc.
Yes, this also be used for commands like:
'^a' = 'deleteToBeginningOfParagraph:';
which is similar to the built-in Control-k command (delete to end of paragraph and put it in the yank buffer).
Or to move the cursor right by 7 words:
'^UF703' = (
'moveWordForward:',
'moveWordForward:',
'moveWordForward:',
'moveWordForward:',
'moveWordForward:',
'moveWordForward:',
'moveWordForward:'
);
I get endless amusement out of this kind of thing.
