How much free space do I need to have on my 32GB iPhone 3GS?

How much free space do I need to have on my 32GB iPhone 3GS for optimum performance? I have only 4 GB left and I am worried that performance will soon be degraded.

Apple allocates space on the flash memory for cacheing proposes. You shouldnt worry. You can fill it up with out preformance problems.

  • How much free space do you need?

    We have a year old Xsan system that we use for video editing. It's relatively small - two stations attached via fiber. We use one side of an Xserve RAID chassis for all of the media, and the other side for metadata.
    How much hard drive space do we need to keep as head room on the media LUN, which is 1.82TB? We seem to hit a 46GB limit (2.5% of the media LUN). Once we're down to 46GB, FCP says it's running out of disk space.
    Does that sound right? When I checked the preferences in FCP, it is set to keep 2047MB (2GB) available, quite a bit less then 46GB. We do have "Limit Capture Now" set to 30 min, but we aren't using Capture Now when the out disk space error pops up.
    Can anyone provide thoughts, even if it's just affirmation that 46GB is a normal head room.
    Also, could anyone point me to any documentation or previous topics on this issue?
    Many thanks,

    Wish I could help you here -- don't know if it's that Xsan is complaining to FCP about lack of space, or that FCP is cranky on its own.
    One thing I will note, though, is that 2.5% free space is WAY too low for storage like Xsan. Typically you will find that performance slows substantially when storage is more than 80% full. And you will have issues expanding Xsan volumes via the "bandwidth expansion" (adding LUNs to a storage pool, versus adding storage pools to a volume) method when you get above about 60% full. So just be aware of this -- filling an Xsan volume is different to filling the local hard disk on a Mac Pro or Power Mac (though the 80% "guideline" exists in most cases as it's simple physics -- platter density and physics are a constant in this world

  • How much free space do you need on a 16 GB Iphone in order to backup restore it?

    So I've recently gotten a new phone, and it will not connect to wifi and the battery life stinks. When I called Apple Care, they told me to restore it, but its saying I don't have enough memory to restore. I have over 4 GB though, so why is it saying theres not enough memory on my Iphone? How much memory do you need?

    iOS 7 requires space on the iphone memory to install. Make sure your stuff is backed up to both iCloud and iTunes. When connected to iTues and your phone appears on the left side click the right mouse button to bring up a dropdown box. First select, transfer purchases then backup and then finally sync. Unpluf your iPhone. Delete off of your iPhone and big programs, movies, videos or photos (make sure these are all backed up first to iCloud. Turn off find my iPhone. Connect back to iTunes and perform a restore. This will take a long time 2-4 hours depending how much you have on your phone. Good luck.

  • I'm trying to purchase shogun 2 but it won't let me because I don't have enough disk space, I managed to free 33Gbs but still nothing, how much free space do I need for that?

    It doesn't even let me download Empire Total war which is 13gb

    First, the App Store will not allow a download that, when expanded, would leave less than the minimum amount of available space on the startup volume that Apple considers necessary, which is about 9 GB. The download is a compressed archive that will usually expand to about twice its size. Both the archive and the expanded files will be present at the same time, so the actual amount of space needed is about three times the size of the archive.
    If you're trying to add a large amount of data all at once, and you get an alert of insufficient space, then from the menu bar, select
               ▹ System Preferences... ▹ Time Machine
    If the padlock icon is closed, click it to unlock the settings and authenticate. Turn Time Machine OFF, then back ON and close the preference pane. Restart the computer. Test.

  • How much free space does a 4GB ipod need?

    why does it keep saying i dont have enough free space? i already decreased the space to 3.85 GB, and its still saying i dont have enough free space. how much free space does it need?

    This is more likely a matter of Apple specifying 4G as 4,000,000,000 byte rather than 41024*10241024 byte like your computer counts.
    Using the "1000 notation", your 3.85GB would require 4.1GB. Try trimming your library down a bit more (to around 3.7G). I don't have my Nano yet, so I cannot verify if the device actually uses any of those "4G" for things other than storing your data.

  • How much free space is necessary on the hard drive?

    although the message 'Startup disk is almost full' is coming up, what is the amount of free space required to run 10.4 normally?

    773/3219
    Hi Brian,
    This is not an exact, immutable value, but it is usually understood that Mac OS X needs about 10% to 15% free hard drive space.
    Now you most probably can count a minimum of 5 GB, in order to run the (about) 4 GB system (Tiger), regardless of the total size of the HD.
    Another useful info:
    Depending on your habits and on what you do with your computer, look at the fluctuations of the VM size number in Activity Monitor. It shows quite accurately how much free space the OS needs to "breathe" well.
    In a word: 10-15%.

  • 45 minutes into editing, CS3 crashes every time...how much free space does it require to run?

    I have noted the error, but cannot contact Adobe with question. How much free space does it need to run efficiently? This happens every time I try to edit and is costing me so much time, it is not worth using this product. Help...

    Hi,
    I am sorry to hear that you are experiencing this problem. First, I would need to know what kind of computer you use. You should usually alllocate at least 30% of storage for photoshop files, rendering etc.
    Also, it is important to know if you have a computer that is capable of handling large files(as they will need a competent video card processor, RAM and processor speed).
    Does the problem usually happen for large files or only one?
    Let me know if you find this information useful,
    Vicente.

  • How much free space before updating iPad to 5?

    I have an original, 64gb iPad One.
    from what I am reading here, free disc space seems to be important before doing the upgrade.
    how much free space do those of who have updated suggest, BOTH on then iPad, and on
    my PC hard drive?
    Not looking forward to a bricked-install

    The more stuff you got, the longer the whole update will take...increasing the chances something might not go smoothly.
    So delete movies/videos first as they take up the most space. You can copy them back later. It's worth the small hassle imo.

  • How much free space is needed to update an iPhone to iOS 6 using WiFi?

    I have an iPhone 4 and want to know how much free space is necessary to update to iOS 6 using WiFi (not through a computer). I updated another iPhone with a MacBook Pro and it stated that I needed 2.5 GB of free space. My son has the other iPhone and he has to update via WiFi.
    thanks

    I think it might be different depending on what version you're running at the moment.
    I upgraded my iPhone 4 with 5.1.1 to iOS 6 and it was about a 800 MB download by WiFi.

  • How much free space will be left after import ?

    Hallo. I need to replace all schemas on integration server using those on production server. I want to know how much free space will be left on /data at integration server after this kind of refresh. Both databases are Oracle 9 so I will use exp/imp. Here is how I do it. Could you check if I think good? On target server there is 72 GB free space on /data.
    Filesystem Size Used Avail Capacity Mounted
    /dev/vgsmxdata/lvsmxcopy 194.74G 122.56G 72.18G 63% /data
    Overall size of schemas to be exported from SOURCE_DB is 150 GB. The same schemas on TARGET_DB takes 90GB. So difference is 60GB. Free space in datafiles in TARGET_DB is 30GB. Does it mean that in first place the free space in datafiles will be filled and after that datafiles would be extended? That would mean that a database would extend to 150GB and free space on /data would be 40 GB after refresh. Am I right?

    How much free space do I have?

    I'm running Snow Leopard 10.6.8 and want to upgrade to Yosemite, which requires about 5.7 GB. When I go to About this Mac, I see that I have 4GB memory. But to upgrade I think I need 5.7 RAM. I don't know difference between GB in memory and RAM. How do I find out how much free space I have and if it's enough to download Yosemite? I have 2.4 GHz processor speed for my MacBook 7.1. Also, first time I tried downloading, I ran out of gigabytes from my broadband account. I bought more ( 6 GB) and then the downloading stopped and never completed? Could I have run out of gigabytes on broadband account again?
    RAM is different to disk space. Niel's #2 instruction tell you how to check disk space. That is where the installer will be saved when you download it.
    Make sure the disk has well over 20-30GB free, the OS can perform badly if you fill the disk too full.
    Since you have 6GB a 'cap' on your downloads I'd strongly suggest that you do the following if you ever manage to download the installer…
    Wait for the download to complete, when the large window pops up prompting you to install OS X click Cancel.
    Now open the Applications folder, find the installer (called 'Install OS X Yosemite'). Copy that to another disk for safe keeping.
    When copied you can open the installer application from the Applications folder & continue to install OS X.
    The reason for making a copy is because the installer will delete itself after installation. If you ever need to re-run it you will need to download it again. This is not good when you have a download limit on your internet connection.
    Do you have access to any other internet connections? A friend, relative or business that has no download cap? It could be expensive to keep hitting your cap.
    P.S. The installer may restart instead of resuming the download, so it is possible that the entire 5.7 GB will need to be downloaded again.

  • How Much Free Space on a ZiiO 8gb Tablet ?

    I am interested in getting a Creative ZiiO tablet and now deciding on whether to get the 8gb or 6gb model ? How much free space does the 8gb has which can be used to install apps and media ?
    Thanks.

    Thank you once again for the quick reply. The ZiiO looks good for my needs and as I will be going to Marina Square, I might just go pick up a 6gb unit when I am there.
