How do I cancel a download for a rented iTunes movie because there isn't enough storage space

How do I cancel a download for a rented iTunes movie because there isn't enough storage space?

Purchases cannot be cancelled, but if you cannot clear enough space to allow the download, go here:

and follow the instructions to report the issue to the iTunes Store. Perhaps there will be something they can do for you.

  • My Macbook won't boot up because there isn't enough free space for my start up disk. It's now stuck on a blue screen. How am I meant to delete files to free up space if I can't access the computer?

    My Macbook won't boot up because there sin't enough free space to run the startup disk. My Macbook now won't go past the blue screen so exactly how am I meant to be able to delete files if I can't access the computer?

    Do you have a bootable backup?
    What operating system are you running? If OS X 10.6 or lower, boot from your original OS X DVD or a retail OS X DVD and then delete files as needed. Your goal should be to get to 10% of your disk capacity free.
    If you have OS X 10.7 Lion or 10.8 Mountain Lion, you don't have many choices in recovery mode (boot holding the command and r keys down).
    If you have a FireWire or Thunderbolt connection, you can try target disk mode with another mac.
    If none of those work, perhaps your local Apple store can help with a bootable external drive.

  • The content download cannot be performed because there is not enough available space in cache or the disk is full.

    I deploy all office package via Application deployment. But many system getting failed due to error "The content download
    cannot be performed because there is not enough available space in cache or the disk is full.".
    I delete the cache old file/folder. Now the cache disk space is available. But still this systems showing same error. And it is not retry also. need help for retry application download if failed due to cache disk.

    You should review what your default client cache size is being set to (default 5GB) and then look at the size of the office content you are trying to deliver.
    If the content of the office application exceeds your maximum client cache size setting then the download and subsequent installation will fail.
    Note that normally the download of applications should overwrite old content in the cache unless you have set them to be persistent, the exception to this is the above case.
    To resolve this you will need to increase the client cache size. There are a few ways to achieve this, you can do this either from the Config Manager console via right click tools or via a script that you can run against your clients. Others might like to
    comment on how best to achieve this (if this is indeed your problem).

  • "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.

  • I am getting the following message "safari could not download the file (440MB) because there is not enough disk space.  disk utility says i have 249.8 GB of available disk space.  any suggestions as to what is the problem would be appreciated

    i am getting the following message "safari could not download the file (440 MB) because there is not enough disk space.  please delete files or download to another disk."  when i check system information it tells me i have 249.82 GB of disk space available.  any suggestions as to what i can do to resolve this problem.

    thanks for your suggestion.  that is the same advice that i got from the geek squad at the local apple store.
    i did what he instructed but it did not work.  i have since called apple support twice regarding the problem.  they had me start the computer in safe mode, going into the library and deleting a phlist file (i think) do a repair disk permissions, do a repair disk, empty the cache, and finally the last guy told me to unplug the computer from the wall socket and restart.
    when i mentioned the advice you and the apple store guy gave me they sort of poo pooed it saying that was done when they did all this other stuff.
    i am now waiting for the download to be completed to see if unplugging the computer had any effect.
    thanks again for your kindness in answering my concern.

  • HT4623 I am unable to download the latest iOS 6.0.1 software to my iphone because there is not enough available space.  I try to sync my phone to itunes and says it doesn't recognize the device and to reset the iphone using Settings on the iphone.  Help?

    Here is my problem:
    I'm unable to download the latest software iOS 6.0.1 to my iphone 4 because there is not enough available space.  I tried to sync my iphone to itunes and it says, "itunes cannot read the contents of this iPhone.  Go to the Summary tab in iPhone preferences and click Restore to restore this iPhone to factory settings." 
    I backed up my data to icloud to ensure everything is backed up.  Is there a way to verify if data was really backed up in icloud?
    What else can I do in order to free up enough space to download the newest version iOS 6.0.1?  Current version on the iphone is 5.1.1 and there is only 1.6 GB of space remaining.  I need 2.5 to download the software.

    If you really are running OS 10.4.6 you have a long way to go!
    So, assuming you are not, what version of OS X do you have?

  • HT1766 i deleted a ton of photos and videos from my phone but it's still telling me iCloud won't back up because there is not enough storage available.  how do i get around this?

    i deleted a ton of photos and videos from my phone but it's still telling me iCloud won't back up because there is not enough storage available.  how do i get around this?

    The Storage space its referring to is on iCloud. How much iCloud space is left, and how much space is your iPhone using?
    iCloud storage space and the iPhone's physical storage space are 2 different things.

  • I recently had to get my iPhone 4s replaced.  The old phone was backed up to ICloud.  I get a message when I plug this one in that it is not backed up and there isn't enough storage left to back it up. How to I remove from the other phone so I can back th

    I am trying to back up my new Iphone on to ICloud.  It shows I dont have enough storage because it still has stuff from the old IPhone.  How can I back up this phone and erase from the other.  Apple kept the other phone when they replaced it.  If I hit the delete storage for the other phone (which shows up on the Icloud Icon on this phone) will I lose everything on this phone?  That's what I want to avoid....

    If it's corrupt, generally it would be lost.
    However, there is third-party software out there that can retrieve some of the data, those of which however I could not recommend as I have never done so myself.
    Also, if the old 4S was running a more recent software version than the current 4S, that may cause the issue however usually iTunes tells you exactly that.
    Good luck in retrieving that information.

  • What does "74559.emlx" couldn't be copied to "Messages" because there isn't enough space, really mean?  How do I find out what is taking up so much space?

    Help!!  I am trying to figure out what "74559.emlx" is.  I was delating a email message when this poped up!?  I higlighed the message and then hit the delete button. 
    I understand that my computer is full, so now I am trying to move this over to an external hard-drive, how do I know if it's been moved or just copied?  How can I see what is on the computer and how "big" it is? 
    Sorry for all the questions, ANY help is much appreciated!!!

    "Other" is everything that isn't in one of the other categories. For instance, it includes all your user documents that are not movie, audio, or photo files.
    Regardless of that, you need to use an external drive at least large enough to backup your entire user folder (the one with a House icon). Better is to get one at least as large as your built-in drive & use something like Carbon Copy Cloner or SuperDuper! to clone the whole built-in drive to it.

  • HT201210 Trying to restore a new iphone 4 to files from an iphone 3, however, the restore says it can't complete because there isn't enough space.  I would like to delete photos and music files.  How can I delete these photos?

    After doing the initial restore function, I'm trying to delete phots from the system.  The itures instructions says to click the photos button the unselect photos or albums, but see no photos button.  How can I delete the photos to gain some storage space?

    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

  • I replaced a 5C with another 5C, but the new says there isn't enough storage to download all my apps or update IOS.  Why would it be different if it's the same phone?  I deleted several apps to try to make more room but it still isn't working.

    Hi CBarreca,
    Welcome to the Apple Support Communities!
    I understand that you have a new iPhone that is giving you storage space warnings when trying to add all of your content back to it. In this situation I would recommend using the attached article to help figure out where the storage on your iPhone is being used.
    See how much storage you've used on your iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch - Apple Support

  • HT1766 How do I resolve the error "iTunes cannot restore backup because there is not enough free space on iPod"?

    I have an iPod touch 4th generation 8gb and im having a time zone issue on it, so I just backed up and I want to restore from backup. When I try to restore from backup it tells me that there is not enough space on  my ipod to restore backup. I have 687 mb free, how much space does it need? I dont want to restore then restore from backup in case something goes wrong like this and I have to start all over. Id rather have the time zone issue than an empty ipod. How do i resolve this? please help!

    Try moving/deleting from your iTunes libary apps and music which were on the iPod when the backup was made. When selecting apps,select the ones with app data that you can lose.

  • I'm trying to download Bioshock Infinite from the app store and get a message saying there isn't enough disc space; but the Bioshock support page says I only need 30G and I have 60 free on my hard drive

    Whoops, I think I should have posted my message here...Anyway, I'm trying to download Bioshock Infinite from the app store but get a message saying I don't have enough disc space.  The game requires 30 G and when I look at my internal hard drive it shows 60 G free. 
    What gives?

    It means you do not have enough Space on your Device and need to create More Space on Your Device by Deleting some items off your device.
