How can I save space on my Macbook Pro after making videos on iMovie & FCP ? Should I delete my files after?

Okay so I make a lot of videos on my mac for my Youtube Channel. I have quite a few projects and movies from Movie, but ive recently switched over to Final Cut pro and the rest is history. However im running out of space on my hard drive, FAST! to the point i cant even edit my new video. Silly me for not paying attention to the warning signs (ie slow computer duh...)
So my question is, is it smart to delete my projects, events and original videos once ive exported and uploaded the the final video? I think Im quite the hoarder when it comes to these things like im worried i might need it for something. Is there anyone who has a YT channel or makes videos regularly relate to what im saying and what are your ways on saving space and what you do once you've finished your project?????
Thanks a bunch if you can help I just need someone else's insight and opinion to help me decide what to do....

There are really two answers depending on how much money you are willing to spend, and how much editing you plan to do on the footage.
Option 1) You can rely on your Digital8 tapes for backup, and re-import them if you ever need the footage again. You can delete your event files (once you have completed all Projects). Once you have SHARED your projects in all sizes you need, the projects are in a compressed format. Once you delete the Event files, no further editing will be possible.
Option 2) Keep the Event Files on a large external hard drive, and back it up. This way, you have maximum flexibility for future editing, future new projects, and you don't have to worry about the lengthy import from a nearly obsolete tape format again. I recommend Option 2. External drives are relatively cheap these days, and your time is probably more valuable than the cost of an external drive and the cost of the re-import.

Can/How Should I Delete CS 5 After CS 5.5 Install

I had CS 5 Web and CS 5 Premier EDU versions. I purchased CS 5.5 Master and installed it, but it left all the CS 5 Apps installed so I now have two versions of CS installed.
Can I just drag and drop all the CS 5 versions to the trash can without it impacting my new CS 5.5 apps?

Depends on the application. For InDesign having every possible version at your disposal is very important since the native files are not backward compatible. Even saving back through IDML is not perfect.
For other apps, not as necessary.

Does any one know , how to delete the others in itunes. it takes lot of space

does any one know , how to delete the others in itunes. it takes lot of space, i wanna delete that... Actually what it contains

Those are the data of the installed apps. Don't listen if someone says that it's an iOS, because it is not. On your iPhone, go to general > usage. It will show you all the programs installed on your iPhone. If you click any of them you will see how much of "others" it has (documents and data)
There's no way to delete it if you want to still have those apps. You can reinstal those which has the most "others" but after some time of usage, it will raise again.

Hello Georgia,
Those are failed/incomplete downloads, you can trash them & empty the trash.

Movie files take up more space than they should

Hi! I'm new to iDVD, and I wanted to take about 20 .mp4 files and put them on a DVD that a DVD player hooked to my TV will be able to read. The combined size of all the files is under 4GB and will fit on a burnable DVD. But when I drag them into iDVD, it only lets me have like 5 before it says it is full. Why is this happening? Why should the video take up more space than the file's actual size? If anyone can help, I'd appreciate it!

iDVD works on time and NOT on RAW file size!!
All video is converted to MPG-2 by the encoding process in iDVD. With a single layer disc, you can get UP TO 60 minutes of content in Best Performance mode and UP TO 120 minutes in Best Quality mode.

Does iwork take up alot of space?

I just got a new macbook for christmas
and i got iwork
i was just wondering if it takes up alot of space.

"a lot" is a relative term. iWorks takes up more space than Apple programs used to, but less space than MS Word. You can find programs that use less space, but they probably won't do as much.
Look at it this way. If you have an 80 gigabyte hard drive,iWorks uses less than 1% of it. In other words, if you have 80 million dollars, you've spent $661,000. You have over $79 million left.
That's a lot of money to some people, but not much to someone who has $80 million.

How much HD space should I partician for Windows XP?

I am upgrading to a new (2010) iMac i5 with 1 TB HD and I was wondering how much disc space I should make for Windows XP? I only have a couple of special apps that I use in Windows and the attending files do not take up much space so other than the OS I may not need too much, but would appreciate a little starting point. Thanks.

I got this mixed up with my Shakespearean readings. I should be partition. I hit the key before reading.

"Manually manage music and videos" takes up more space than syncing?

Hello all,
I fear that I am just stupid and unseeing an obvious answer to this query, but ask I shall, because it is frustrating me to no end.
I recently downloaded a few audiobooks from my local library to listen to on my iPod Touch; the app in question requires that you "manually manage music and videos" rather than syncing. Fine.
I switch over to iTunes, check the box, and now my music--without changing anything, mind--is now taking up an additional 1.8 (or more) gigs on my iPod. I toggle the option to "manually manage" on and off, and with it "on", my music takes up more space than with it "off", even though it's the same music, same podcasts.
Can someone please explain to me why syncing manually takes up more space than syncing automatically and where the extra gigs are coming from? There's not that much audio on my iPod--1.52 gb of music, 1.97 gb of podcasts and .69 gb of apps--which only adds up to 4.18 gb, and on an 8g touch, should leave me with about 4 gb of "wiggle room", so to speak, rather than .27 gb.
Help, please!

iTunes will normally put just one copy of each file on the iPod and link it to multiple playlists. If your iPod's database has been corrupted at some point however, there may be unattached copies of your meadia from earlier sync attempts, taking up space on the drive, but not visible in the library. How much space does iTunes report for Other? Excluding files placed manually & intentionally on the iPod, "other" is typically an overhead of 1%-2% of the size of the media and represents the iPod database, artwork, games etc. If you have significantly larger amounts of "other" then you will need to restore your iPod in order to reclaim the space.

TM backup takes too much space

I restored the boot disk (Macintosh HD) from TM's last backup.
The first new backup takes too much space on your external drive!
Is it true?

I must have three times to recover the system partition.
I'm not sure that the drive for 1 year of operation is out of order. During the day the computer works fine, but every morning after wake up,
when disc is cold ,
and after 2 - 3 minutes go to freezing all apps. It seems that does not see the HDD.
After a forced shutdown and restart the system sometimes can boot normally and without error in the file system, but often does not load.
After several attempts to boot the system it is still loaded, but disk utility shows :

How do I open compressed old files to view them before I delete,I have alot of space taken up with these files but I dont know what they are and if they are important.

I have just started using the computer and have no idea what old compressed files are or if they are important,so I have not deleted any ,and now they are taking up alot of space.

You should have the old Pages '08 inside the iWork folder, inside your Applications folder.
Open your old files in Pages '08 > Menu > File > Export > Word
Pages 5 can then open that Word file.

Does the amount of mail you have in your mailbox take up storage space on the ipod touch?

Does The Amount Of Mail You Have IN Your Mailbox Take Up Sorage Space ON The Ipod Touch

It shouldn't take up space because the emails are saved on email provider server (yahoo.com, rr.com, etc) All of the provider should do this.

Should I delete preview files to save space on my hard drive?

Should I delete preview files to save sapce on my hard drive? At times the program crashes and I wonder whether I should get rid of these files to make more space.

PCNoviceMesa
Yes.
If you run a SD project (whether you render stills or videos) and render, you are going to get DV AVI files automatically generated. If it is a HD project, rendering deposits MPEG2.mpg files on your hard drive (whether you render stills or videos). We are talking possibly GB amounts of files if you let them pile up long enough. For Windows 7, 8, or 8.1 64 bit, these preview files are by default in Libraries/Documents/Adobe/Premiere Elements/12.0 and in the Adobe Premiere Elements Preview Files Folder there.
First let us see how much is piled up there before we take action against them.
If the preview files there are part of an existing project or projects, the consequence of deleting those files is that you will have to render again that content in the project to get the best possible preview. If the preview files represent project long since gone, good riddance.
Please check out the situation. And, then we can discuss also pile ups of conformed video and conformed audio files.
More later.

I clicked on the firefox update & lost my old firefox page with my aol start & quick pick tool bar & this "new" page takes up more space so when I click on a different subject, I have LESS space to view it. . Why, WHY must you people always mess with things that were just fine. . I cannot eeven restore my computer to an earlier time, NOPE, won't do it. . So now what do I do ? ? Pete . . . God Bless . . . . I WANT MY PREVIOUS SETTINGS BACK ! ! ! ! !

The problem is with the page that opens at startup?
What does the new page look like? Can you paste the address into a reply?
Or if it doesn't have an address, maybe it's a page created by an add-on. Can you see any indication of the source of the page? Perhaps you could post a screen shot of what it looks like. This article has tips on that (make sure to delete to cover anything confidential): [[How do I create a screenshot of my problem?]]
To reduce content size, try the zoom feature: hold down the Ctrl key and tap the - key once or twice. If you want to reset the page to the standard size, you can hold down Ctrl and tap the 0 key once (zero).
But really we should get you back to the page you prefer, and hopefully with the additional details I requested we will be able to figure out what needs to get changed so you can do that.

How much swap space should I allocate? [SOLVED]

Hey guys,

And I could use some clarification on "rolling release" as to what it means :-)
Thanks
