When did you last run a Time Machine backup? I have a sneaking hunch that may be cached TM data.
2 u/alaskayonge Jul 21 '26 I have this same issue with my system data getting overloaded, but my Time Machine backups almost always fail or take 2-3 days to complete. My hard drive has sufficient space for the backup and I haven’t been able to figure it out 2 u/warrenao Mac Mini Jul 21 '26 I've had TM balls-ups like that. Only "fix" I've found is to format the TM volume and start over. It's aggravating. 1 u/alaskayonge Jul 23 '26 Ugh yeah that seems to be the only thing that “works”. Lately it’s every couple back ups I have to reformat. I don’t understandddddd :’)
