Archive and Install problem (not enough disc space for another install)

Alright, so I've got the blue screen. I tried getting rid of the APE stuff, and they were all successfully deleted, but it's still the blue screen. So I'm going to do the Archive/Install thing. My problem is that if I try to do an Archive and Install, I won't have enough space to do it. I have around 3.5 GB right now, but that's probably not enough to do another install.
My only option I think is to go into single-user mode and manually remove my larger files. I have a back-up drive, and I tried removing all the stuff that's on the back-up drive from my computer, but all of them are listed as read-only.
So is there a way to override permissions in the UNIX thing? Or is there another option for me with?
Also I don't know if this matters, but I'm installing it from an external DVD drive and I'm doing it from PANTHER and not Tiger.

Acrobat 9 Pro: Install Problem "not enough disk space"

Hi:
I just bought and downloaded Acrobat Pro 9 from the Adobe site and took the following steps:
1) Uninstalled Acrobat Pro 7 & rebooted
2) expanded installation copy onto Desktop
3) Copied Install to CD
4) Installed and chose both "Typical" & "Complete"
5) Got a message (with each install try from step 3) box with my D drive (CD Drive!!) highlighted saying: "the highlighted volumes do not have enough disk space available for the currently chosen features..."
NOTE: this is my CD drive highlighted as not having enough disk space, not my C drive (the drive being installed to. C drive has 23GB space. No matter what I did, it kept blocking my install beyond this point.
I did this both from a CD and from the Desktop Install folder.
I was able to successfully install it on my notebook -- Complete Install with no problems.
I'd appreciate any ideas.
Thanks!

Are you sure you are not trying to install Acrobat onto your CD drive?

I. I want to import 58.64 GB of Photos from an external HD
2. I have 278.28 GB space left on my HD
3. The exact error message goes like this......
Insufficient Disk Space
iPhoto cannot import your photos because
there is not enough free space on the
volume containing your iPhoto library
I Have researched this and most advice is to empty the iPhoto trash. I have already done this and it did not help.
Thank you for helping

"Safari could not download the file because there is not enough disc space"

"Safari could not download the file because there is not enough disc space"
I have 60gb available on my MBA and I have "read and write" privileges for the download folder. This error seemingly came out of nowhere. It doesn't matter if the file is 1gb or 10mb, I'll get the error. All I have to do is remove the .download extension and I can use the file which is complete despite the error.
This is really annoying so any help would be appreciated.

I never used to have a problem with creating a new folder and moving the download into it
But you'll have a problem if you do it now.

"Not enough disc space" when exporting

Hello all -
I am running iPhoto 2.0.1 with OX 10.3.9. My hard disc has 40GB.
Every once in a while, when I try to export a large number of photos into a desktop folder or as a slide show to QuickTime, I will get an error message saying, in effect, that there is not enough disc space to complete the export. My hard disc at those times has anywhere from 7 to 9 GB of free space. Quitting and restarting iPhoto has no effect. Neither does restarting the computer. Often times editing a photo in Photoshop Elements which then puts the edited picture back into iPhoto fixes the problem - but not always.
More often than not, the export works fine. But these "error" situations keep occurring every now and then.
Any thoughts?
Thanks in advance for your replies -

anybody?

Code:25 Not enough disc space Help!!!!!

Hi there,
Can someone help me before I smash my PC up!
Adobe you need to sort issues out with your products before you put your sofware on the market!
For the last four days I have been trying to create a Blue Ray disc, which has been sent from Premiere CS5.2 to Encore via dynamic link.
The project is 2hrs 36mins in length.Transcode settings are set at Transcode Default Settings. Dimenions of project are 1440x1080, Frame Rate 25.
I have 398Gb free space on my drive and 2Gb free space on disc.
Start to bulid the project in Encore, this takes another 10hrs to transcode, then it attempts to write onto disc then I get "CODE 25" Error not enough disc space?????? What the **** is this ?
I have gone through the forums on here which have mentioned deleting the session files, done all this and still no luck.
I would appreciate it if anyone has managed to solve this problem and pass their findings on to me.
Thank you
Wayne

Hi Guys,
I have finally managed to burn the project onto Blu-Ray but I have a slight issue with the Audio being slightly distorted. What would be the best settings for the audio?
This is what I did to get it onto disc:
Exported my project from Premiere CS5.2 through AME then imported into Encore 5.1. I did change the Administrator settings as advised and it looks like this did the trick.
My Encore Project Settings were set at: Codec H.264, Dimensions 1440X1080, Frame Rate 25, Upper Field First.
Export Settings from Premiere were set at:
Video
T.V Standard: Automatic (based on source) (PAL)
Frame Dimensions: 1440x1080
Frame Rate: Automatic
Field Order: Automatic
Pixel Aspect Ratio: Automatic
Profile: Main
Level: 4.1
Bitrate Settings
Bitrate Encoding: VBR, 1 Pass
Bitrate Lever: High
Target Bitrate: 18.75
Maximum Bitrate 22.5
Audio
Codec: Dolby Digital
Audio Layer: Dolby Digital Stereo
Frequency: 48 KHz
Bitrate Settings
Bitrate (kbps) 192
Do I need to up the audio bitrate for better sound as I'm getting distortion. If so what is the best setting for this?
Thank you all for your help

Try to burn Blu Ray. It says: Not enough disc space

Hi everybody,
I try to burn a blu ray disc. My Blu Ray Writer is: HL-DT-ST BD-RE BH10LS30
I use 25GB BD-R Discs from Verbatim.
If I try to burn a 20GB *.iso file, every tool I tried says immediately: There is not enough disc space. What is wrong?
Even if I try to burn smaller files to Blu Ray, it always says: There is not enough disc space.
I'm confused
Regards
Maik from Germany

The 'There is not enough disc space' message appears immediately. It doesn't matter if the output file is 500MB or 20GB.
I tried different BD-R discs. It is always the same message.
I found a similar case:
I am trying to burn a blu-ray disc but having problems.
Do I really have to buy a 90$ tool so I can write my movie on BD-R?

Receiving a "There is not enough disk space available to install the product" error in App store while I clearly have enough space?

I am attempting to purchase Dues Ex: Human Revolution which requires 17GB to run, I currently have 27.34GB free.
Even though I have 10GB more than the required space I still get the "There is not enough disk space available to install the product"
Any ideas?

HI...
You need at the very least 15% free disk space. More if possible. Definitely not enough free space to install a 17GB app.

Error: not enough disc space?

I am trying to export my first project. Even though I have 133G left on my external hard drive I get the (not enough disc space) error. My project is 87 minutes long. Since my external drive has more than enough room, I guess the program is only recognizing my internal drive (which only has 4 gigs left). I have been opening the project and editing it through the external hard drive for quite some time now, so I am a bit confused and frustrated. My capture scratch discs are set to the external drive. I have been trying to figure something out with the media manager, but to be honest, that thing scares the **** out of me. I use FCP 5.0 on a G5 dual 1.8. Using NTSC DVCAM 48K. Is there something I'm missing about using the external drive? Any help would be appreciated!

disk formatting is handled by the Disk Utility application in the /Applications/Utilities folder.
reformatting your disc will ERASE ALL the contained data
... and you DONT want to format as FAT32, rather the opposite. the advice was to check that your disc is formatted as Mac OS Extended, and if not, to format it as such. you can check this by selecting the G-RAID's disc icon in the finder and pressing Cmd-I to open the info window.
Look down to Format, just above Capacity, in the General properties.
no doubt you will receive extra advice to ensure that the drive is not "Journaled" but this is not a big deal

Main Menu:Not enough disk space for asset encoding

i tried to burn my project first i got an error that in track 1 i've got no assets/videos and i added an asset, then a problem with the story and dragged the same story in both columns.. now i tried to burn again and got this error
Main Menu:Not enough disk space for asset encoding
Build cancelled
Building was not successful. See log.
any help appreciated. Thanks in advance

Sounds like your hard drive is getting full. You need as much space on your drive as you can get - at least as much as the disc contents, twice. If you are burning a DVD-R at 4.7Gb then allow ten Gb free space before you start.

Not enough disk space for asset ecoding

Hi all,
I have a dvdsp project with:
a feature: 3.3 gb
dvd extra: 289
menu assets: 65mb
and shows that it is 3.8 mb all together, but when i try to build/format it stops the build at the menu and gives the error message: Not enough disk space for asset encoding. I was running a test build when this happened. i have yet to add the audio for the extra thinking i still had some room on here to work with.
I have burned dvd's up 4.5 without any issues. any ideas why this is happening?
thanks,
Mark

I'm having the same problem. Except I have tried to switch locations for the Current Build and each time it says Not enough disk space for asset encoding. I have a 500GB raid with almost 400GB free and then another 500GB raid with about 130GB free. I really need help on this pronto!
Another message it now brings up after it starts Encoding Assets: Insufficient disk space for encoding. Please free up disk space on your encoding target drive. Please Help!!

"not enough disk space for asset encoding" error message

I'm using DVD SP 4.2.1 and trying to burn a DL DVD. Every time I try to build the TS folders somewhere, I get the "not enough disk space for asset encoding" message. I have PLENTY of space (over 100GB) where I'm assigning it to create the TS folders. I don't understand why I'm getting the message. Your help is appreciated.

Max,
I think you're onto something here. I noticed that the original disk (an old Iomega Peerless 20GB removable hard drive) was nearly full. I also saved the DVD Studio Pro file for the project to the same drive. I think that, somehow, the application looked to that drive to do something and got a "disk full" message from that disk and gave me the error.
The workaround was to transfer all the assets AND the project file to another hard disk with plenty of space (over 100 GB). The settings for the DVD Studio Pro encoding process remained the same…my computer's internal hard disk with its 30 GB of free space. I re-linked the assets and the disk building and encoding process went smoothly and I'm now the proud owner of a finished DVD.
There's probably something lurking in the background here, but this worked for me.
Thanks for making the suggestion to look deeper! My problem is solved!

HD Space vs FCE "Not enough disc space" warning

I'm trying to capture a 1 hour 27 minute video only clip. I've checked by settings and they are for my external drive that still has 346GB remaining. However, when I click "Capture" the device stops the clip after 9 minutes plus a few seconds, saying I don't have enough disc space or memory.
To get around this, I'm re-starting capture each time I get that message and creating 9 minute clips. I've captured video and audio segments up to a couple of hours without getting this warning before. I guess I'm too inexperienced at FCE to know where I should look to override this erroneous message. Even the Capture Window---which shows color bars and space to name the bin, reel, name, etc...says across the top that I have 344.9GB total free space, and total free AV time of 1545 minutes.

The HD is a Western Digital MY BOOK 500GB...
Is this a Firewire HD? If it's USB2 that will also be the cause of your problems.
Video needs firewire because of the method of data delivery in constant stream rather than in 'packets' as via USB.
I can't say why you've not had problems before - some people can capture via USB but it's not recommended and will probably lead to dropped frames and other issues.
Have you checked the formatting anyway? - all I can say is that it's well documented and recommended to capture to a drive to an external firewire and for it to be formatted Mac OS Extended (not journaled) for your computer set-up (as you can't add additional internal drives). Any other set-up will lead to problems.
Perform a search, there's a few posts in this forum referring to capture limited to about 9 minutes.

Not enough disk space during application install.

Hello and thanks. I'm trying to install an application on a Windows Boot Camp partition. There are no other applications installed other than XP Pro SP2. I have about 15gb of free space on the partition. I'm getting an error that there is not enough disk space to install the application. The partition is FAT32. The application is DeLorme xMap 5.2. The free space is showing up when I check the capacity. Any ideas?
