"Other" storage in Mac 10.9 I have a Macbook Pro, 10.9 with 500GB of hard drive storage and 4GB of RAM. When I access the Utility app "System Information", this is what I got.


There is a yellow block called "Other". What does "other" storage mean in this context?
If you look in to the available categories there are files that do not fit in to any. 

That is why are they called others. 

Nothing wrong with those files, they just did not fit the given categories.
