    Hi and welcome to Apple Discussions.
    Irrespective of your iTunes downloads you are going to run into serious problems with only 1GB of free space. The general recommendation on these forums is that one should have 10% free space as a minimum or 15% as an ideal.
    Having as little as 1GB could result in system corruption or, at worst, HD damage. I recommend that you free up some space as a matter of urgency.
    If you would like any guidance on what is safe to remove post back but a good starter, often neglected, is to empty your Trash.
    Good luck,

  • Trying to back up iPad to external hard drive, "iTunes library file cannot be saved. The disk you are attempting to use is full."

    This issue is somewhat complex so I will try to explain it as clearly as I can. Any help will be greatly appreciated.
    It all began when I kept getting popups from my iPad saying that I had not backed up since May. I realized that was pretty dangerous so I decided to finally try syncing it to iTunes, though I had avoided doing so for so long because I knew that when I tried there was no room on the computer. I then remembered that I have an external hard drive with plenty of storage space, so I got that out and set it up with a folder to move iTunes and the backup into.
    On iTunes I went to the Advanced Preferences and changed iTunes Media Folder Location to the G: folder, with the keep organized box checked. I also copied the previous backups from the original C: drive to G: so that I could delete the ones on C:.
    I used Junction Link Magic to link my now empty MobileSync backup on C: to a new (JLM would not work unless it was empty) backup folder on external hard drive G:.
    I plugged in my iPad to iTunes to sync it, and while it was backing up I checked the new folder on G: to make sure that the backup was being put there. It was.
    However, about halfway through I got the message "iTunes library file cannot be saved. The disk you are attempting to use is full."
    My question is Why? If it is being made in a 1.5 terabyte hard drive now, and not the computer, why is there no disk space? My guess is that it must still somehow be saving to the computer. But how? And how can I get it to save solely on the G: drive where there is enough room?
    I am running Windows XP and the latest version of iTunes.
    An additional but not as crucial issue:
    Much of my music has been lost, with the being displayed next to the songs in the iTunes library, and only 50 (purchased) songs remain on my iPad. This was because those missing songs were stored on a different external hard drive ( I:). However, I copied many of the music folders on I: over to G: so that everything could be together. I am wondering if it is possible for me to get these songs back onto my iPad. But this is not my most important issue right now, because I believe that once I get the first issue solved I can simply plug in I: and G: at the same time while syncing the iPad, and get the songs back.
    Note: I have come to realize the iTunes program itself is still under Program Files in the C: drive. Does this have to do with anything?

    Short term, free up some disk space. Long term, move the library to a bigger drive.

  • Creating/loading an iTunes library (.itl) on a network drive results in dummy error "The Disk you are attempting to use is full" [Win7]

    I  have an 2TB external HDD attatched to my Asus router.  I have iTunes installed on 3 computers in the house (Bedroom, home theater, bar). Each copy of  iTunes accesses the same music folder on the external hard drive.
    The problem is that iTunes creates a library file on each individual computer.  The library file gets out of sync all the time (as computer 1 doesn't know when files have been added via computer 2 and so on).
    Obviously the answer is to just put the Library.itl file on the same network drive.  Hoilding shift whille double clicking the iTunes icon allows you to create or load a library from the location of your choosing.
    All well and good so far.  However, when I attempt to save to my Network Attached storage Device (NAS) iTunes gives me the "The Disk you are attempting to use is full. Please delete..." error.  (There is over 1TB free on the drive.)
    Creating the library file on a local HDD, moving it to the network one, and demanding iTunes access it via option start results in the SAME ERROR!!!
    I'd really rather not rescan my entire library everytime I start iTunes.  Adding new purchases and songs via the "Automatically add to iTunes" folder, again, only adds the files to the database file saved on the computer where the files were dragged and dropped from.
    I've used windows to "Map" the network drive, as well as typed in the \\192.168 etc address of the network drive.  Always get the same error. 
    Any help or thoughts would be greatly apperciated.

    Also, tried this with itunes 10 (current build) iTunes 9.2.1, and itunes 8. Same issue.

  • Can not download itunes programs"The disk you are attempting to use is full

    I purchased recent tv programs for my mac book pro as I have many times before.
    However, shen I try to download them I get the message: " All downloads and file copies have been paused. The disk you are attempting to use is full."
    I thought all itunes downloads are downloaded onto an idisk, which is online memory storage. In that account I have used a fraction of my 19,456 MB. On my hard drive I have well over 1 GB of space left so what disk is being referred to in the stop sign message and how can I correct the memory allotment on that disk to download my purchased itunes programs. I am using the latest itunes, 8.1
    This also happened last year for a while and mac support said to delete and reinstall itunes. When 8.1 was downloaded the problem appears to have been solved. And now it is back.

    this is the message im having trouble with.
    all download and file copies have been paused. the disk you are attempting to use is full
    what do i do now?
    thanks

    Perhaps the destination you are trying to download to is full; that's what the message says, after all.
    If you're trying to download directly to an iPod touch, then perhaps it is full up.
    If you're trying to download to your computer, is there space on your hard drive? Alternatively, is the hard drive set to "read only" or are your account permissions set to deny you the option to save files?

  • "iTunes library file cannot be saved. The disk you are attempting to use is full."

    Trying to back up iPad to NAS, "iTunes library file cannot be saved. The disk you are attempting to use is full." I already changed my iTunes settings which now points to my NAS. In ~/Library/Application Solution/MobileSync/Backup I created an Alias which points to the NAS. What else can I do to backup my iPad to my computer? I'm a newbie on OSX but have lots of experience on Windows systems. I always believed Apple OSX is easy to handle but iTunes seems to has it's own "will".

    No suggestions? I'm wondering and a bit disappointed that no one has comments to this. Is it so difficult with OSX? Comments appreciated.

  • "the disk you are attempting to use is full" but 70 GB free

    I'm attempting to sync my 16GB iPhone on a new build with a 128 GB SSD drive, of which 67 GB is free. However, when I attempt to sync my iPhone, I get the above "disk full" error, which sounds impossible. Anyone know what could be wrong?
    P.

    I'm having the same exact problem trying to download a TV show purchased from iTunes -- Battlestar Galactica, except that in my case I have about 600GB free. This has to be an iTunes bug. What is the problem?

  • I am trying to restore my ipod touch.But when i press restore it comes up with a message saying, The ipod could not be restored. The disk you are attempting to use is full... what do i do to make it work??

    i need help please!

    It sounds like your PC or Mac's internal HD is full. You need to delete some data or move it to an external hard drive or storage device of some sort before you'll be able to successfully complete the restore.

  • ITunes error message: "The iTunes library file cannot be saved. You have exceeded your storage quota on the disk you are attempting to use." What do I do?

    I recently started receiving the following iTunes error message when I attempt to update the software on my iPad or iPhone: "The iTunes library file cannot be saved. You have exceeded your storage quota on the disk you are attempting to use."
    Any ideas what I need to do? The software won't update on my iPad, and I need to update through iTunes, as my iPad does not have enough free space to use the OTA service.

    You need to free up space on your boot drive.
    (I am going to ask the mods move this to the MacBook Pro forum.)
