Erase free space filled my free space..help !

I used DU erase free space on 'zero data option'
I had 50/50% free /used space on 80 Gb int HD
after that I had no free space ...
I started from OSX disc, ran DU, repair disk, which fixed 2 issues but
left 'Invalid leaf record' 'should be 13 not 2001'
Last line ... '1 HFS volumne repaired'
'1 volumne could not be repaired'
This HD was NOT partioned..
I guess DU wrote in my free space but didn't record that fact correctly ?
It's running but slow slow
Any idea what to do ?
Thanks

Do you have a full backup of your system and data? If not back up as much as you can, if you can. After that that, I would stop using it.
You need to free up space on your hard drive to allow it run properly. Then it may be able to be repaired. But I wouldn't want to try without knowing how backed up you are, or not.
Let us know.

  • I am trying to free my mac book for space. everytime i try to empty the deleted items in trash, it starts and stop without clearing the items. how do i empty the trash

    I am trying to free my Mac book for space in oredr to upgrade. Everytime i try to empty the deleted items in the trash, it starts and stops immediately without clearing the items. How do i achieve this?

    I had the same problem yesterday with an application file that was deleted after installation of an update. I used "Put Back" to move it back to its original location, then used "Show Package Contents" to delete/empty trash for small groups of files at a time. I suppose the application file itself may have been too large to empty at one time. I hope this helps.

  • Remove or free data from the disk space

    Hi All,
    How to remove or free data from the disk space. Considering most of the data  in the directories are junk.
    Is there any T-code from the appliaction layer or we have to do at operating system or database level.

  • HT4759 how do i free up 4 gb of space so i can download mountain lion os x

    what is the best way to free up 4 gb of space to download mountain lion os?

    How much free space do you hafve on your MBA?  It's recommended to have a minimum of 10 GB of free space for optimal system and application performance, space needed for cache and virtual memory files.  If you don't have enought for the Mt. Lion download you're running is dangerous waters. 
    I suggest you get and an EHD and move your less needed files to it so you can achieve the 10 GB free space recommendation.

  • Iphone 5 is stuck on "Update Requested" while trying to download ios8 and it's been like that for 2 days now. I have plenty of space almost 8gb free. Any ideas?

    Iphone 5 is stuck on "Update Requested" while trying to download ios8 and it's been like that for 2 days now. I have plenty of space almost 8gb free. Any ideas?

    Hi Risdian, thanks for the comments and suggestions, however none seemed to lead to any success. When setting the carrier off automatic, after a few seconds of searching the device returns the message, "Unable to load network list", and I have placed my sim into another unlocked iPhone 5 and it worked perfectly, picking up service almost immediately. I can also iMessage and connect to wifi fine, so i don't fully understand the issue.
    I guess my iPhone is in need of repair, so if there are no other conceivable 'at home' fixes, i'll have to bring the phone to the apple store for a diagnosis. Any other suggestions or comments would be happily welcomed
    Thanks for replying and commenting, you were very helpful

  • Root space filling up

    Hi
    I got a problem with my Sun E450 server. Actually the root is filling up the space. After investigation was made, i realize that the /var/tmp seems to have a file that is so large. So, i moved the file to another location to free up the space in. Just wondering:
    1. Is it normal that a Sun to have such a temporary file with that size?
    2. How was this file created? Is it by users doing transactions which created the temp file, or could it be other main reason?
    Any help would be much appreciated. Thanks.

    This would probablly be better answered in the OS forums, but look at things like:
    1. user processes
    2. patch /package files
    3. etc

  • How do I keep Warp Stabilizer and aeselflink from filling my swap space?

    Hello,
    I'm running the lastest version of AE on OS X, when I try and run warp stabilizer on a composition, aeselflink grows the virtual memory it uses (> 50GB) until it fills my swap space and causes my machine to hang, because the hard drive is full.
    Running AE's Edit->Purge options has no effect on the amount of virtual memory used.  I have to quit AE to get aeselflink to quit and free the memory used.  How can I limit the virtual memory used by aeselflink to something reasonable? 

    I'm not aware of a way to control this in any more detail, but this stuff obeys the settings you make in the Render Multiple Frames Simultanuously prefs if used. Otherwise it will use factory defaults which should never use more than 4GB. Anyway, the behavior you see is highly irregular no matter what. Sounds like a memory leak, so maybe you can provide more info, including which AE version, what footages etc.

    The replies from here are not instantaneous. But, your fellow users all try to respond as timely as possible.
    What is your computer operating system?
    From where are you downloading Premiere Elements 13....direct from Adobe as the tryout or the purchased product? If the purchased product, do you now have a purchased serial number to go with the installation files?
    Where are you stopped in the installation....at the Sign In or before? Is the faulting module cited in any messages? What are the error messages?
    The usual questions:
    1. Are you working with the antivirus and firewall(s) disabled?
    2. Are you running the computer programs as administrator?
    3. Are you working with a pen and tablet device instead of mouse?
    4. Is your video card/graphics card up to date according to the web site of the manufacturer of the card?
    5. Are you installing the program to the default location on the Local Disc C (if Windows).
    Let us start here and then decide what next based on the details that you post. Subsequent troubleshooting may include:

    Hi ...

    Make sure there's at least 15% free disk space.

  • Reading in a space filled file

    I am reading in a file which is in byte format and each record is 50 chars wide and space-filled. If an element is not present in the file, then it is just space filled.
    Example input.prn file:
    Bob ����� Smith�����12 North Rd�����Denver�����CO�����USA�����12435
    John �� Williams�����123 State St�����New York�����NY����������12435
    Notice in the second record, that John Williams does not have a country. It is just space-filled (50 chars).
    So I need to read in this file, and send it to a constructor in this format:
    Bob,Smith,12 North Rd,Denver,CO,USA,12435
    John,Williams,123 State St,New York,NY,,12435
    in the second record where there was no country, a "," needs to be in it's place.
           BufferedReader br = new BufferedReader(new FileReader("input.prn"));
           String line = " ";
           // the delim needs to be space filled somehow
               while((line = br.readLine()) != null)
                    StringTokenizer st = new StringTokenizer(line,delim);
               }I'm not sure how to approach this problem. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
    thank you

                while ((len = br.read(data, 0, data.length)) != -1 ) {
                    //You do now have len characters available in the data.
                     line = new String(data, 0, data.length);
                     String firstName = line.substring(0,10) + ",";
                     String lastName = line.substring(10,27) + ",";
                     String startDate = line.substring(27,35) + ",";
                     String address1 = line.substring(35,45) + ",";
                     String address2 = line.substring(45,55) + ",";
                     String city = line.substring(55,65) + ",";
                     String state = line.substring(65,67) + ",";
                     String country = line.substring(67,70) + ",";
                     String zip = line.substring(70,80);
                     String record = firstName+lastName+startDate+address1+address2+city
                                              +state+country+zip;
                                                  System.out.println(record.toString());
                                      }If I add the + "," onto the String values to output comma-seperated values, the results for the second record appear incorrectly as below:
    Bob ,Smith ,20051018,12 North Rd ,Apt 1 ,Miami ,FL,usa,87782
    Tom
    Jon,es 200,307308 S,tate St Apt, 12 Boi,se IDu,sa,112,35
    Tom
    The output for the first record of Bob Smith is absolutely correct, but the record for Tom Jones is not. All of the commas are misplaced.

  • Mail logs filling up disk space: why? ok to delete?

    Computer spec’s: 2GHz Mac Mini with 4GB of RAM and a 250GB flash storage. I am running OS 10.9.5 and Mail 7.3.
    Problem: My storage has been mysteriously filling up, with about 200 GB in “other” in “about this Mac.” I would delete files and then it would fill up again. Using WhatSize, I determined that Mail logs took up 107GB, with two files accounting for most of this (details below).
    Questions: Is it safe to delete Mail logs? Why are some so big? Why are dates so random? Can I prevent large mail logs in the future?
    In Library/Containers/com.apple.mail/Data/Library/Logs, here are the dates and size of the largest files named in format: [long stream of numbers and letters]=imap.gmail.com.txt
    July 15: 55.8 GB
    Sept 3: 47.17 GB
    Aug 6: 5.43 GB
    Aug 6 3.64 GB
    Then there are six files between 312GB and 867.2 GB and many others named in the above format and multiple files named in this format: [date]_GmailDelete.log dating back to May 21.
    Thank you for your help.

    Hi, I'm having a very similar trouble but I do not use Gmail. I have several mail accounts, essentially from 2 mail server providers (hosting and registrar companies), most accounts in IMAP but some still in POP.
    I'm on a PowerBook pro, retina 15 mid 2012, 2.7 Ghz Intel Core i7, with 750 Gb SSD disk", running OS X Yosemite 10.10.2
    Since one week I experience the same problem, disk space filling up without appearant reasons. In the Data/Library/Logs/Mail I have 541 files (!!), some of them very huge. I have deleted a 75 Gb file and another of 13Gb, but I still have files from more than 9Gb (ten file obver 1Gb).
    I have changed passwords in my accounts and even to access my hosting proividers. But no changes.
    Deleting the huge files in the Logs doesn't seem to affect Mails except the fact that I have to enter all POP / IMAP and SMTP passwords :-(
    In the logs, the hugest files are "2015-03-18_IMAPMailboxSyncEngine.log", 2mail.mydomainname-d44f367b-6650-4ddf-9cc6-4fe08822ab6c.txt", "2015-03-21_SocketStreamEvents.log", "137778C8-7690-48F3-877E-48D400322117-mail.mydomainename.txt", and I have plenty like that.
    The question is, where the problemn comes from ??
    When deleting the log files ... the problem is not solved because it continues to filling it with new logs, again ..
    Thank you for your assistance and help.

  • Fill with blanks(spaces) a VARCHAR2 type

    Thanks in advance,
    I have a VARCHAR2 type rtesta's var of length x(100 char)
    how i can fill(write) it without create a other varchar2 var that it'll be only filled with blanks(spaces). e.g
    rtesta := ' PC'||fil1||'xxx||fill2....
    where fil1 = say 10 spaces.. fill2 = 63 spaces and so on
    I would like something as
    rtesta := ' PC'|| RPAD(null,10)||'xxx||RPAD(null,63) ...
    but.... Oracle treats an empty string as null. And nulls are always a bit special within Oracle. Particularly, rpad('', n) and lpad('', n) returns null.
    Exists a built in for my problem?
    Thanks

  • How can I add dots after text to fill the remaining space in a table cell?

    What is the most efficient way to add dots after text to fill the remaining space in a table cell? I know it is possible using tabs but is this possible using a table?

    You can put a tab inside a table cell using Option+Tab
    Then just set the right-aligned tab stop and the right edge of the table cell and add the leader.

  • Spaces in between images ; textbox help

    in my dreamweaver HTML page, after i insert say like, 5 images, they clump all together, and i'm unable to separate them (like how i'd be able to do them in microsoft powerpoint)
    is there anyway that will enable me to freely shift around these images, so that they are not always joined together?
    another questions, how can i insert a space for me to type what i want, without the annoying form box, where you fill in stuff in surveys. it'd be like inserting a text box in microsoft ppt, just allocating a space for you to put in your words
    hope you guys know what i mean!
    EDIT: i've realised that i can put in the H and V space. but how would i say, put in a paypal "buy now" button HTML code, under that space? is the space usable?

    Building web pages in Dreamweaver is nothing like working with PowerPoint.  This isn't a click and drag application.  If you switch to Code View, you can insert non-breaking spaces (   ) between images like so:
    <img src="some-image.jpg">  insert space, insert space,   <img src="some-other-image.jpg">
    To add captions to images, you will need a working knowlege of CSS and HTML code.
