Garageband: How to fix a not enough space to download in app purchase error?

I have 7GB free and when I try to download the in app purchases in Garageband 10 it tells me to free up space and try again, without even saying how much space I need. Anyone else having this problem and or knows what to do? How can I resolve this?
Thanks

you need to clear some space on your hard drive by deleting some files. 7 gigabytes is really a very low level of free space to begin with, a rule of thumb is to always have at least 10% - 15% of your hard drive available for the OS to use.
i don't recall exactly how big the D/L is, but it might be 5-6 gigs (and you'd need at least twice that so the files have room to be unpacked)

I get error message: not enough space to download when I try to buy a tv series on Itunes. It tells me to delete photos or videos to make space, but I have no photos and videos. Help?

I get error message: not enough space to download when I try to buy a tv series on Itunes. It tells me to delete photos or videos to make space, but I have no photos and videos. Help?

I would guess that a TV series takes up a fair amount of storage capacity. It is just a standard message I think that may indicate that you are actually running low on storage space.
If you go to Settings>General>About how many GBs are specified as being available? If you are low on space maybe deleting some apps may help.

How come I'm not asked for password for every app purchase, app auto downloads once I tap install, not good when my kids start buying apps because they are not asked for password, help!!

Thank you for the help, have sorted it through Restrictions in General settings now : )
No more mysterious app purchases on my c.card now thank god !!
You would think they would set as default that Password was required - Imediatly . But they know there likely to get more purchases the way the default set it..
Thanks again for prompt reply!!!

Error for 'not enough space' when downloading a video. I can see that it's music but I'm deleting songs out of my itunes and it's not helping with the space.

I'm trying to download vide'os to my iPad but I'm getting an error that there is 'not enough space'. When I look at my space, it's mostly music. I've deleted out albums from my itunes but it has not freed up any space. How do I delete these albums?

Music takes up very little space, movies use a lot of space.
Settings, music
Setting, usage
Both these area will give you info but if the movies are bigger then these areas allow, you may not have enough room even with removing all the music.
How big are these movies and how many?

Not enough space when download oracle

I am the beginner of Linux, and I am try to download Oracle 9i to /usr/oracle directory, but it says I don't have enough space to contain the files. I am confused because I have a partition with size of 8G for the /usr directory. How come I don't have engouh space for the oracle files, which are less than 2G. Anyone could help me?
Thanks!!!

Simply do
#df
And you will see report about "filesystem disk usage"
To the right you will see "Mounted On" - that is the column with points which you should create before(with names), there you will find a point where you wont to copy information - "/usr", after check other columns. For example Available .... if there is not enough space better to reinstall system, or use disk druid. Better to do the first.

What can i do to get my ipod to update? Says that there is not enough space to download these items. Please delete some photos or videos. There are none on it.

Help please!

Accidentally hit "helpful answer" on my own post, how do you undo?!
Anyways, I cleared more space by simply deleting videos on my iPhone.
It appears that there are definitely cases where the iPhone requires MORE than 2x the amount of space the app takes up in order to install the app.
It would be useful if Apple could make this requirement a bit clearer.

TS1702 i have 1.4 GB of space, but the App Store tells me i dont have enough space to download an app that is only 621 MB!

does anybody know why this is happening and what i can do to fix the issue?
i've tried restarting the device, deleting extra programs, installing updates. i am running the most up to date ioS.
This program was on my device previously, and i deleted it. i now just want to get it back.

An iPod usually takes between two and three times the file download size to download and install an app. You need to delete more items from your iPod.

I changed my LCD last day and now i noticed all my pictures on my phone are gone. I tried to restore the back that I got yesterday but it wont let me because its telling me there is not enough space on my phone!!!

I changed my LCD last day and now i noticed all my pictures on my phone are gone. I tried to restore the back that I got yesterday but it wont let me because its telling me there is not enough space on my phone!!! That's wierd because I didn't download any app or anything else since my last backup and on the other hand about 3000 pictures are gone, how come there is not enough space left! I also check my usage on my phone and it shows that i have about 7.0 GB pictures!!! BUT my photos is empty! I want my picture back on my phone any solution anyone?

Thanks for your reply!
I just called the guy who changed my LCD and asked him what happend, he said there were no pictures on your phone when you gave it to me! i know he is lying tho!
My apple warranty is over and I have to pay them to get some help over the phone!

Navigon 1.7.0 update - Not enough space

I'm trying to install the 1.7.0 update to *NAVIGON MobileNavigator North America*. According to the app store, the space requirement is *1.59 GB*. I understand that I need 2x the space, so I should need 3.18 GB to install the update.
According to my Settings > General > About screen, I have *4.0 GB* available.
I can't get the install to run though. I keep getting the following error:
"There is not enough space to download 'NAVIGON MobileNavitator North America'. Please delete some photos or videos."

How do you know that Navigon only uses twice the number of space in their update? They may be using additional temporary holding space during the upgrade which would mean that in calculating the update space required after examining your phone they know there is not sufficient room. The iPhone also retains some areas for swap space the app installers cannot use this area, so subtract about 500 MB from your available, and some apps may be reserving additional swap space.
So you are really talking about you need somewhere between 3.18 to 3.9 GB of space and you have roughly 3.2 to 3.5 GB available. Whether you like it or not, or consider it "barbaric" (exaggerate much?) you will need to free up more space. Or get a phone with more space available.
This is no different on other phones or on computers with limited disk availability.

I keep getting a not enough space message.

I just downloaded creative cloud to my laptop. I keep getting a not enough space message. Want to purchase a desktop in order to have more space. Can I use cc on two separate computers?
AT first I could not download lightroom or photoshop. I deleted all the pictures in my iPhoto folder and was able to. I only added a few select pictures back to iPhoto. Tried moving them into lightroom (following the tutorial) but message says insufficient space. I'm getting frustrated because I have this awesome thing that I can't use!
Thanks,
Annette

I want to get Madden NFL 12 at the app store. The app size is 303 MB. When i try to buy it it says thier is not enough space to download it, but when i go to settings it says thier is 579 MB available Space left.

To download an install an app requires free space that is between two and three times the download file size. You ned to free up more storage space.

HT1766 Restore backup function says there is not enough space on my iPhone to restore backup. How do I fix this/how do I know how much space I need on my iPhone?

My family member's iPhone recently erased all of its contact information, with no action taken by my family member. She is trying to use the restore backup function to recover her contacts.
The restore backup functions says that there is not enough space on my iPhone to restore backup. How do I fix this/how do I know how much space I need to complete this backup?
We have removed the majority of pictures from her phone, and she has 4.1 GB of memory free.
Thank you!

You need at least as much space as you have used on the iPod. Could be as much as 64 GB but is probably much less.
Find a way to delete what you do not need on the computer. Start by emptying the Recycle Bin.

I just purchased a new iphone 4S and I'm trying to loan some music from itunes. I keep getting a message that says not enough space on my phone. I checked my phone and I have 5.1G available. I deselected all the songs on my itunes to try and get it to sync and I keep getting the same message. Any tips?

Hey csumner1,
Thanks for the question. I understand you are receiving a "Not enough free space" alert when attempting to sync your new iPhone 4s. The following article may help to resolve your issue:
iOS: "Not enough free space" alert when trying to sync
http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1503
Resolution
Try disconnecting and reconnecting your device, then syncing again to solve this issue.
Orphaned files may remain on your iOS device if it is physically disconnected while syncing music, podcasts, videos, or photos. This can prevent iTunes from syncing the iOS device on subsequent sync sessions. When this happens, the Capacity indicator in iTunes may report a large amount of "Other" disk usage for the iOS device. To resolve this issue:
1. Turn off the music or photo sync option in iTunes for the device.
2. Click Apply to sync the changes to the device.
3. Turn the music and photo sync options for the device on again.
4. Click Apply again to try to sync the device to iTunes.
          - If the 'Not enough free space' alert appears, continue to step 5.
5. Turn off the automatic syncing functions for the iOS device. To do this:
          - Select the iOS device from the iTunes window and click the Summary tab.
          - Deselect "Automatically sync when this device is connected" and select the "Sync only checked songs and videos" checkbox.
          - Click Apply to sync the changes to the device.
          - Reduce the amount of data that is being synced to the device and resync the device. For example, if syncing your Music library exceeds the memory capacity of the device, choose "Selected playlists" to transfer rather than "All songs and playlists" under the Music tab in iTunes.
If the 'Not enough free space' alert appears, continue to step 6.
6. Restore using iTunes.
Thanks,
Matt M.

iCloud storage cannot be used to download content, because its not on your phone.
You need physical local storage on your Phone not iCloud to download content.
If your iPhone no longer has enough space, you will need to delete things off your iPhone to make room.

1.) How do I organized my photo album on my ipad? 2.) How do I remove an album on my ipad? 3.) i have taken over 1,000 photos on ipad, now it won't sync stuff to the ipad because it said there is not enough space. I want to delete some past synced p

1.) How do I organized my photo album on my ipad?
2.) How do I remove an album on my ipad?
3.) i have taken over 1,000 photos on ipad, now it won't sync stuff to the ipad because it said there is not enough space. I want to delete some past synced photos from the computer to create space, but I don't know how to find it on computer. It sycned a portion of a file onto the ipad which is useless to me so I want to delete it all & start fresh.
4.) I was thinking about copying some of those photos over so it would show up as new data maybe then it would sync to my ipad as a new & competed album. Or will this create more problem because it would only be creating more photos?
5.) By the way, I don't know how to use dropbox or anything like it, so I take photos of some files & web screen that I use regularly to always have access regardless of internet access. That is why I have so many photos. But I want to be able to separate & organized them by files, web screens, or topics. I also want to be able to delete & update as needed.
6.) If needed I am willing to delete 4 G of downloaded app to create space. Will this help the space issue? Also could I just leave the downloaded app to my computer only & only sync to to ipad as needed, since I don't need app as regularly. I NEED "photo" ALL of the TIME! I am out in the field, instead of carrying stack & stack of papers, I carry ipad with photo of these daily needed papers!

1, you can't at the moment, though with iOS 5 in the Autumn, from http://www.apple.com/ios/ios5/features.html#photos :
Even organize your photos in albums — right on your device
2, by removing it from you synced from and re-syncing. Only photos taken with the iPad, copied to it via the camera connection kit, or saved from emails/websites etc can be deleted directly on the iPad (either via the trashcan icon in the top right corner if viewing the photo in full screen, or via the icon of the box with the arrow coming out of it in thumbnail view)
3, the location of the photos that you synced to the iPad should be listed on the iPad's Photos tab when connected to your computer's iTunes.
4, you can copy the photos from your iPad to your computer : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4083 . You should also be able to delete them from the iPad as part of the transfer process to your computer, and it's then your choice whether to add them to your sync photo list so as to copy them back to the iPad. Copying them to your computer would allow you to organise them into folders and therefore be able to sync them back into separate albums.
5, I don't use Dropbox either. There are some third-party browser apps in the iTunes App Store that allow you to download pages so that you can view them when offline e.g. Atomic Web (the whole page is saved within Atomic Web, it doesn't place a photo into the Photos app)
6, deleting content should help. If you remove an app from your iPad then you also remove the content that it's got on the iPad - so if you then decide to reinstall it back onto the iPad then you will need to manually add back any content that you want in it. None of the Apple built-in apps (including Photos) can be removed from the iPad
