Disk limit message

ji
i posted over in ST PRO but no one seems to have a suggestion. does anyone have a handle on this disk limit message? i have a brand new G5 quad with 2 internal 250 Gig drives one housing the apps and system and the other exclusive for audio. i run both ST 1.2 and ST Pro and have never experienced this on my old G4 which i just got rid of. the only thing i changed on the OS is i updated to OS 10.4.5. now on even new ST projects if i have 4-5 tracks open with some loops and then add play back a recorded guitar one-shot i continually get the disk limit message that appears. no other apps are open at the time and i am recording to the audio exclusive drive not the system drive. there are hundreds of gigs of space available. i also have 4.5 gigs ram. i have made sure my whole audio in/out system is synced & everything is processing at 44.1/24 bits.
could it be something to do with the 10.4.5 update? or quicktime? can't be the computer speed!
anybody have an idea?

thanks for the thought. in my case, i only had 2 or 3 tracks open, little or no effects. still don't understand why. interestingly, ST Pro works a charm. been recording audio tracks with it along with 15-20 tracks of samples, loops etc. no issues except for the occasional 'this program has unexpectedly quit...' that was usually caused by asking the program to do too much.

Disk limit message wierdness..

Hi,
I know this has been covered alot on many posts, but i have noticed something bizarre. I have been working through a project and all has played fine with no message making an appearance, but when i got back to a particular bit there is one clip that refuses to play, ringing up the disk limit message every time. So i thought that may be give a soundtrack a couple of seconds to catch up with itself, i.e. giving it time to purge the memory and load in whats needs to be played. But no. Nothing, just that **** message. solo the track and the same. the only way i have found to get around this so far is to quit STP and reopen, which i you read one of my earlier posts is, takes about 20 mins, which is unacceptable.
I have read all the press releases of how the STP has been reprogrammed from the ground up. Erm.. why? they obviously don't have a clue. Why not take some notes off more reliable products and then reprogram STP and make it a reliable product - Apple, please take the Pro suffix off and just call it ST3 or Soundtrack Nightmare, then people might have more of an idea of what they are buying.

How much ram do you have dude? There's only one way to get the files to open quicker and that's to add ram, I noticed a triple increase going from 1g to 2.5g.
That will help you with your disk limit issues too, but it depends on how fast your processor is as well. I can do up to a gig files on my laptop but it takes a long time!

'Disk full' message even though 14gb is shown as available by Finder

I've started to receive a 'Disk full' message when every indication shows that I still have over 10GB of hard drive space available. The bar at the bottom of the Finder window, the 'Get Info' screen, and Disk Inventory X all show that my space usage is about 10GB under the size of my available disk space.
The problem is not limited to an error message - web browsers will also sometimes refuse to download now because of 'disk full' issues. But if I try to copy files within Finder, it always works, up to the actual limit of the disk size. This suggests that something is going on with file management where both MacOS and my web browsers see that there is no space, but Finder is able to manage around it when I try to copy files. Is this a known issue? Are there large temporary files which are not reflected in the available disk space indicators?
I'm using an early 2011 MBP with 10.6.8, and the original 500gb hard drive. I did just upgrade to 8GB of RAM but it's not clear if this is related or a coincidence.

You are Confusing RAM = Memory.. with Disc Space = Hard Drive...

This is Not enough Free Space on your Hard Drive... You need at Least 10% or 25 GB (whichever is greater) for your Mac to Perform as expected...

"Disk Limit" warning

I've started getting a warning message come up telling me: "Disk Limit--Soundtrack Pro is dropping audio because your computer's hard disk cannot deliver all the audio in time. Try removing some long files or quitting other applications."
I don't get it. As you can see by my stats below my machine should be able to handle this, no? I've quit most apps. Plus I have a 2T HD that's only 1/4 full so it's not a space thing. What would be causing this? What does it mean by a "long file"? I'm only working with a tutorial at the moment so it's hardly some kind of power-user situation.

Are you running everything from one hard drive?
If so, you will likely see a benefit from adding a FW800 RAID 0 drive to that has been designed for A/V applications to store and playback your media files. Drives in this class include offerings from Caldigit, G-Technology, Granite Digital and others.

Problem with dropping audio and disk limit

Hi,
I have problem with working of Soundtrack Pro. When i trying to work and show message:
DISK LIMIT
Soundtrack Pro is dropping audio because your computer's hard disk can't deliver all the audio in time. Try removing some long files or quitting other applications.
The problem is that i have 200 GB free space and in one time use only soundtrack for working.
Please help!!!!

Thank you fro your answer, but i try to make a short audio 30 sec. spot. The media for this spot is not very big. The transfer of system disk is 50 mb/s do you think if we put another disk will help?

"No disk" error message

I finished an iDVD project, saved, and hit the "Burn" button.
I insert a blank DVD-R when prompted, close the drive, and after a few seconds get a message that the drive can't locate a disk and to please insert a blank DVD-R. I put it in again, making sure it's sitting flat in the tray, and get the same message.
I've tried with several blank disks, same message. I exited iDVD and tested a DVD in the drive, and it played fine. I also successfully burned a disk in this drive last week (same set of DVD-R disks, earlier version of same project).
Since I've heard DVD burning can be really memory intensive, I moved some old iMovie projects to the trash and emptied trash, now have 130+ G free.
Any ideas what's going wrong?

Forgot to say: I'm using iMovie/iDVD 4 with latest versions of iTunes and Quicktime.

No Disk error Messages in PSE8

On and off I keep getting the following error message when I switch between Edit and Orgainzier in PSE8
and sometime other times. Photoshop ElementsOrgainzer.exe-No Disk There is no disk in the
drive. Please insert a disk into drive \Device\Harddisk4\DR4.
I have to hit Cancel 3-4 times to get rid of it.
What is this and how do I stop it? Tks. ALan

I have recently experienced this message repeatedly in PSE6 running on Vista. I believe after either saving a file from PSE6 to a floppy in drive A or opening a file in PSE6 from an SD memory card in drive J. Resolved by recreating both situations then ensuring that i used photoshop to open files from and save files to the resident C drive before removing the floppy disk from drive A and using the 'safely remove hardware' function in Vista to confirm that it was safe to remove the SD card.
Following this procedure I have experienced no more 'no disk error messages'

Disk error message in Organizer

When I open Organizer in Acrobat Pro 9, I get a No Disk error message:
"There is no disk in the drive. Please insert a disk into drive \Devise\Harddisk\DR1" with buttons to Cancel, Try Again, Continue.
If I cancel [and I have to cancel twice for each error message, the message changes to ...Harddisk2\DR2 through to Harddisk4\DR4.
I always get there in the end, but how can I stop the error messages appearing in the first place? It's incredibly irritating!
There are no preferences for Organizer, and nothing I can see in the Acrobat preferences that would help.

I'm surprised PS even runs on that computer although of course 5.0 LE is pretty old.
A 165 MB file may just be too much for it.
How can you "set your c drive to 4096MB"? Do you mean Paging file?
We need someone with a long memory to chime in, but you do need to clarify what you are doing.

Getting "Low Disk Space" message in ProCamera photo app

I'm getting "Low Disk Space" message in ProCamera photo app but I have 8 gigs of available storage. What gives and how do I get around it? Thanks.

Ask the app developer or look at their support site.

My C drive is 19.5 GB. xp sp3 took 5.05 GB.Firefox also installed here . There's no room for new downloaded files.So I changed the save to option in another drive. Still when downloading large files 'low disk space' message shown.

suppose I want to download a 4 or 5 GB file,in C:/ there is usually 2 or 3 GB left.So I changed the directory of saved files to E:/.Still low space problem occurs and the newly downloaded file is not saved.A low disk space message is shown.Why is this showing?How to resolve this?

in options under the "general" tab change the download folder,if that does not help change the option to "ask every time".I recommended to use DAP to download your files its great and accelerates your speed quite a lot.

Upon start up I get a start up disk full message and to delete files, now I only get a a blue screen on start up. How to I get past the blue screen and how do I delete files?

Upon start up I get a "start up disk full message, delete files". Now on startup I only get a blue screen. How do I get past the blue screen and how do I delete files.

That;s really not enough free space... you can use a tools such as OmniDiskSweeper to find out where your large files reside and begin pruning (or copying to an external if they're files that you want to keep).
One thing is certain - if you're going to continue your current usage you're certainly going to need to install a larger boot drive.

How do i get rid of low disk space message popup HP tools drive E on pavilion g7-1219wm notebook pc

How do i get rid of low disk space message ( you are running out of disk space on Hp_Tools (E popup HP tools drive E on pavilion g7-1219wm notebook pc. It is very annoying. I am i school and I have noticed it since downloading different assignments from my college black boards.

Thanks Banhien for your quick response. However my system shows no backup schedule to disable. I do have a 'Manage Space" link and a Turn on schedule link and change settings link along with Restore options with 3 options-' restore all user files- select another backup to restore files from and recover system settings on your computer. If I click on 'Manage Space link', it gives me the option to 'Select how disk space is used by Windows back up'- then there are two options: 'data file backup'-which indicates i can free up space by deleting file backups, and the other option is 'system image' which is greyed out. Upon clicking on the option (view backups) under 'data file backup option'- it shows the current data file backups on my hp_tools (e the date of the file is displayed and the amount of usage- it gives me the option to delete- should I click the delete button?

Hi,
Please try:
Click Start, type "Backup and Restore," and press Enter. This brings up Windows Backup which is a little different than system protection.
In the middle of the Window you should see that the backup is on a schedule. Disable this.
Save your changes.
Delete the backup folder on the E:
Reboot notebook and verify that this resolves the issue.

Startup Disk Full Message Keeps Occuring

I'm new at maintaining our Xserve here at work. It seems that each day the serevr gets incapacitated because the Startup Disk space fills up. I keep deleting log files and other files that are temporary, but to no avail. I can free a Gig or 2 then a day or two alter it's full again. Is there something wrong with the configuration?

You found a disk-full message and, well, piled onto the thread. OK. There's a decent shot that there is no connection to the previous disk-full error, too. If you lift the hood and look at the Unix layers, there are a large number of files being written, and many differing triggers for general or for excessive disk consumption.
As was mentioned earlier in the thread, this likely isn't specific to Xserve hardware, and this is probably a generic Mac OS X or Mac OS X Server issue, too; something occurring within the Unix layer of the platform. Something writing a log. Caching. A run-away process. Etc.
Get the [Grand Perspective tool|http://grandperspectiv.sourceforge.net> as a start. That can show you where your space is going.
Also launch Terminal.app and use the shell commands:
find / -size 1k -print+
sudo du -sHh /*
mdfind 'kMDItemFSSize > 10000000'
The first shows files larger than 1K, the second shows disk space. There are commands around to sort this stuff, too; to rank your use as output by du. That last one, the mdfind command, is a (fast) Mac search command that works reasonably well as part of a pipe.
And 150 gigabytes? That's comparatively tiny. I'm running 750 GB drives on servers that are now three years old. Go get yourself actual disk storage devices. Smaller drives can sometimes be used for high performance, but SSD is infiltrating that usage. The tiny SAS disks that were sold with various Xserve boxes were built for speed and bandwidth (as HDDs go), and aren't so good for storage or for sharing the operating system installation with, for instance, users.
And if it's log files, have a look at what's going on as - as is typical with many of these cases - the log can be filling because there's an error somewhere. And the specific trigger for the error can by most anything. Do your due diligence as a Unix server administrator and find your big file(s) and have a look at what's going on with your Unix server, in other words.
Also try a few Google searches, as this problem is a common one, and there are any number of discussions around of various find and du and mdfind and other commands that can be used here. It'd be nice if there was an integrated and GUI-friendly mechanism within Mac OS X, but that's not available; it's add-on or Unix shell commands for now...

Config mail accounts in difference OUs have difference limit message size

Mail Server is installed by Netscape Messaging Server 4.15.In Directory Server have alot of Organizational unit.I want to config mail accounts in difference OUs have difference limit sended and recieved message size.
Ex: OU 1 ( acc1,acc2...) : I want these accounts only sended and recieved mail limit message size is 1MB
OU 2 ( acc1,acc2.....):I want these accounts only sended and recieved mail limit message size is 2MB
Pls help me,Thanks
Trang nguyen

It's not truly obvious how to do it, but by configuring different channels for each OU (using rewrite rules), you can configure maximum sizes for sending/receiving messages. If it's quotas you're asking for, 5.2 doesn't do "domain-based" quotas for enforcement, but 6.0 does.
