How to turn off Filevault? It says it doest have enough space..

Do you guys have any ideas...?

Copy all or most of the files in your home folder to an external drive temporarily, in addition to your regular backup. Delete the originals, then log out and log back in. You should now be able to deactivate FileVault. Copy the files back.

I cant download updated software, says i dont have enough space

i am trying to download the software update, but i says i dont have enough space, says i need 2 gb and i have 32 gb left on my computer

Is the message saying:
Not enough storage
Not enough/low memory?
For the former delete some items from the iPod.
For the latter.double click the home button and close all the apps in the recently used dock. Then power off and then back on the iPod. This frees up memory.

How do I synch when my Ipod doesn't have enough space for all my imusic?

Create one or more playlists containing a selection of music you want on the device and sync those rather than the entire library.

NOT SURE HOW TO TURN OFF RESTRICTIONS AS i DO NOT HAVE A PASSCODE

not sure how to turn off restrictions

Are restrictions enabled? If they are and you don't know the restrictions passcode:
If You Are Locked Out Or Have Forgotten Your Passcode
iTunes 10 for Mac- Update and restore software on iPod, iPhone, or iPad
iPhone, iPad, iPod touch: Wrong passcode results in red disabled screen
iOS- Understanding passcodes
     If you have forgotten your Restrictions code, then follow the instructions
     below but DO NOT restore any previous backup. If you do then you will
     simply be restoring the old Restrictions code you have forgotten. This
     same warning applies if you need to restore a clean system.
A Complete Guide to Restore or Recover Your iDevice (if You Forget Your Passcode)
If you need to restore your device or ff you cannot remember the passcode, then you will need to restore your device using the computer with which you last synced it. This allows you to reset your passcode and re-sync the data from the device (or restore from a backup). If you restore on a different computer that was never synced with the device, you will be able to unlock the device for use and remove the passcode, but your data will not be present. Refer to Updating and restoring iPhone, iPad and iPod touch software.
Try restoring the iOS device if backing up and erasing all content and settings doesn't resolve the issue. Using iTunes to restore iOS devices is part of standard isolation troubleshooting. Restoring your device will delete all data and content, including songs, videos, contacts, photos, and calendar information, and will restore all settings to their factory condition.
Before restoring your iOS device, Apple recommends that you either sync with iTunes to transfer any purchases you have made, or back up new data (data acquired after your last sync). If you have movie rentals on the device, see iTunes Store movie rental usage rights in the United States before restoring.
Follow these steps to restore your device:
     1. Verify that you are using the latest version of iTunes before attempting to update.
     2. Connect your device to your computer.
     3. Select your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch when it appears in iTunes under Devices.
     4. Select the Summary tab.
     5. Select the Restore option.
     6. When prompted to back up your settings before restoring, select the Back Up
         option (see in the image below). If you have just backed up the device, it is not
         necessary to create another.
     7. Select the Restore option when iTunes prompts you (as long as you've backed up,
         you should not have to worry about restoring your iOS device).
     8. When the restore process has completed, the device restarts and displays the Apple
         logo while starting up:
           After a restore, the iOS device displays the "Connect to iTunes" screen. For updating
          to iOS 5 or later, follow the steps in the iOS Setup Assistant. For earlier versions of
          iOS, keep your device connected until the "Connect to iTunes" screen goes away or
          you see "iPhone is activated."
     9. The final step is to restore your device from a previous backup.
If you can not restore your device then you will need to go to recovery mode.
Placing your device into recovery mode:
Follow these steps to place your iOS device into recovery mode. If your iOS device is already in recovery mode, you can proceed immediately to step 6.
     1. Disconnect the USB cable from the iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch, but leave the other end
         of the cable connected to your computer's USB port.
     2. Turn off the device: Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button for a few seconds until the
         red slider appears, then slide the slider. Wait for the device to turn off.
          If you cannot turn off the device using the slider, press and hold the Sleep/Wake
          and Home buttons at the same time. When the device turns off, release the Sleep/Wake
          and Home buttons.
     3. While pressing and holding the Home button, reconnect the USB cable to the device.
         The device should turn on. Note: If you see the screen pictured below, let the device
         charge for at least ten minutes to ensure that the battery has some charge, and then
         start with step 2 again.
     4. Continue holding the Home button until you see the "Connect to iTunes" screen.
         When this screen appears you can release the Home button.
     5. If necessary, open iTunes. You should see the following "recovery mode" alert:
     6. Use iTunes to restore the device.
If you don't see the "Connect to iTunes" screen, try these steps again. If you see the "Connect to iTunes" screen but the device does not appear in iTunes, see this article and its related links.
Additional Information:
Note: When using recovery mode, you can only restore the device. All user content on the device will be erased, but if you had previously synced with iTunes on this computer, you can restore from a previous backup. See this article for more information.

TS4009 my iphone says i dont have enough space

my phone says i dont have any space to back it up and i deleted everything off my icloud and it still says it but when i plug it into the computer it says i have a lot of space

Welcome to the Apple Community.
How big does it say the back up will be.

IPhone 4s, How do I do a backup on the computer? Phone says I dont have enough space to do it on it.

iPhone 4s.
How do I do a backup on the computer? My phone says there isnt enough space to do it on the phone. It keeps telling me "phone needs to be backed up". Ive looked at iTunes, iCloud... Im not sure where to go to make it do a back up.
Also, I used to be able to take about over 1,000 pictures with a few videos. Well now, it only allows me about 312 pictures, with one video, then says its "FULL" and turns the camera off. I copy the pictures to my computer and delete them so I have room. But its REALLY annoying how I can now only take about 312 pictures.
Any Help would be sooo appreciated!!
Thanks!

The message probably means you don;t have enopugh space on iCloud to backup the Phone.
iCloud has a 5GB limit. If your backup is more than that then it won't be able to backup.
As far as backing up to your computer, just connect it to your computer, and assuming you have iTunes you can just click on the Backup button in the summary page for your Phone in iTunes.
You can follow the instructions posted by Ramzee.
As to why you can take less photos, probably because you've used more space up with different things. so there's only so much space left for your Photos.
You can look in Settings->General->Usage, to see how much space you have available as well as the App that's taking up the most space.
Also when connected to iTunes in your computer Check how large the "other" category is.
If its more that 1 to 1.2GB then you may have some corruption.

Unable to Turn Off File Vault - I don't have enough Free Space on my System Drive.. Any Advise?

I am trying to Turn-Off File Vault on my MacBook Pro. The Following Message Appears: There isin't enough Space on your Harddrive to Turn File Vault Off.
It requires an additional 28.7Gb of Free Disc Space on my System Drive to proceed... I currently only have 4,78Gb of Space available on my System Drive..
Any advise on how to do this??

Better yet, could you adjust the size of the partition of your System Partition? I didn't know you had your HD Partitioned, I would really avoid moving the whole Applications folder off it is possible it will mess things up. Maybe give it more room, so that file vault can copy everything over. If that is possible to just take space from the Projects and give it to System, that would be the best option.
Thanks,
Kevin

How to turn off connection sound

When I connect my iPod to my iPod speakers it makes a sound that I previously disabled. However, yesterday I reset my iPod back to its factory settings just to remove any issues that may have developed with the software. Now I can't figure out how to turn off the connection sound. I have disabled all the sounds in the Settings menu, but can't disable the connection sound.
Any ideas?

Says I don't have enough space

I want to download Infinity blade onto my iPhone while it's 99 cents and I cleared off my phone to where it says I have 1.0 gb free in the about menu. When I go to download infinity blade from the app store it says I dont have enough space. Infinity blade is only about 530 mb. Help please

You'll have to have up to 3x of the size of the app you want to copy during the sync process.
See if you can make some more space, for example by deleting some music or videos, you can add them back after you have installed the big app.

ICloud I do not want to share some documents in the cloud. I f I turn off iCloud it says I will delete everything already there. How do I know what is already in the cloud

iCloud I do not want to share some documents in the cloud. I f I turn off iCloud it says I will delete everything already there. How do I know what is already in the cloud

Thank you. When I go into system preferences, then iCloud, then manage, it does not let me view what is there only says: ex: The documents stored inside Pages take up 623.3KB and gives me the option to: Delete Documents and Data. It does not let me see what files are there. I think it is time for me to go back to my apple store and get more acquainted with iCloud and storage and how to manage it. I had some issues with my mac about a month ago after downloading an updated version. The issue was related to syncing, iCloud, iTunes, calendar and storage. I am nervous about loosing more documents, photos, etc..from my Mac. Thank you for the information.
