How to undrag stuff from trash but it says not enough disk space now i am stuck

Hi- I was trying to free up some disk space by removing rejected movie clips to trash. when i did, i noticed a project had the warning exclamaiton point and it wouldn't play. my event had been erased. when i tried to drag it out of trash, it said i didn't have enough disk space. so now i am stuck. i can't get it out of trash, i can't erase other things because stuff i want in trash is there. any suggestions would be helpful.
thanks.

I can't open either one from the disc. I have to drag em, and one document has to make a copy because the actual file from the disc is too big for the hard drive =/

When transferring an 18 minute iMovie from my iPad to iTunes a message comes up saying not enough disk space to send 16917 mb more space needed. How do I overcome this?

When transferring an 18 minute iMovie from my iPad to iTunes a message comes up saying not enough disk space to send 16917 mb more space needed. How do I overcome this?

Is there enough room on the target disk?
Can the target disk accept files over 2Gb?

IMovie won't share/export my project as it says 'not enough disk space' - how on earth do I get this movie onto a DVD?

I really hope someone can help me please?
I have a 16GB iPad and have created a really nice wedding DVD for my sister. It consists of about 20 mins worth of video clips and 25 mins of images set to music with movement between slides etc. I have cleared absolutely everything off that's possible from my memory and I can't seem to get the iMovie project off my iPad! My storage says that 8.7GB is taken up by iMovie and I've deleted all photos from my camera roll as iMovie can run the project without them, it doesn't cope without the video clips though (tried that!)
I hve now tried exporting to iTunes and it says I don't have enough disk space - I don't understand how it can't just lift the project off my iPad without having to consume yet more storage? I have also tried exporting to camera roll trying 1080pHD - too big. It started on the 710pHD and got all the way through exporting (around 30 mins) and then at the end told me I didn't have enough disk space. Funnily enough, iMovie was only taking up around 6GB of space prior to this, so it's storing this failed attempt to export some how but I can't see how I can get rid of that.
I am heartbroken that I've spent three months doing this and now can't transport it from my iPad by seeminly any means possible. I don't want to just give up. I've seen other threads that say 'go to my computer and look in the DCIM folder and it's there... but it's not. All the video clips are there but not the actual project.
Any help anyone can give would be so much appreciated. Is there a way I can do this without essentially having to give up on apple products and buy some video editing software for my PC. Which isn't a MAC by the way. As you can tell, I was hoping to screen this movie on Christmas day for the family :-(

Are any of your apps video players? Some app store apps contain a file you can't see which saves logs of everything you do. Say if you have had an iPhone for 4 months and watched 50 videos with a video player these 50 videos may have been copied to the log file inside the application and may be what is using up all your disk space. Delete all video player applications from your iPhone.
If that doesn't solve the problem copy the photos to your computer and restore your iPhone with iTunes back to factory settings and when you have restored DO NOT "restore from back up" because that might restore whatever is causing the problem instead DO "set up as new iPhone". Once you've set up your iPhone sync apps, books music, photos...etc back to the device.

Not enough disk space to restore from time capsule

I have a macbook pro, and I think time capsule backed up any eternal drive attached to it.
The macbook would not boot/? mark, so I repaired/verified disk, got to time capsule and retore, but there is not enough disk space on the macbook to repair (again as I think time capsule backed up external drive which I don't need backed up).
Is there a way to enter time capsule from the macbook, and "check" something to not restore back onto the macbook, the external drive.
Thank you
jonathan golab

You will have to open the Time Machine HDD and find the file where the external HDD information resides and delete it. Note for which date you delete the file and use that date for the restore. Review this extract from the Pondini website;
http://pondini.org/TM/12.html
When you enter the Time Machine HDD, you can open the folder like this example. Probably the best date to choose is the latest one.
Ciao.

Im trying to import a large amount of pictures to Iphoto. I have pleanty of space on my HD. But half way thru the transfer an error message comes up and says not enough disc space. How can I fix this?

I. I want to import 58.64 GB of Photos from an external HD
2. I have 278.28 GB space left on my HD
3. The exact error message goes like this......
Insufficient Disk Space
iPhoto cannot import your photos because
there is not enough free space on the
volume containing your iPhoto library
I Have researched this and most advice is to empty the iPhoto trash. I have already done this and it did not help.
Thank you for helping

What does error message when trying to burn DVD from iDVD mean "not enough disk space to burn the remaining assets"

I created a DVD in idvd and now when trying to burn to DVD using external burner, I get the error message
"not enough disk space to encode the remaining assets". I am using a brand new blank DVD.
I have read the help info on computer but hasnt proved helpful.
Any suggestions?

iDVD requires a fair amount of disk space to carry out the encoding process; depending on your project, you may need to have over 25 GB free space on your startup hard drive. How much free space do you have?

There is not enough disk space to download new messages. How can I backup my old emails onto my hard drive to create room for new message?

When trying to download new email messages I receive an error "There is not enough disk space to download new messages. Try deleting old mail, emptying the Trash folder, and compacting your mail folders, and then try again." I have emptied my trash, removed all the junk, deleted about 1gig worth of email and im still having problems.
I have a ton of folders that I store all of my emails in, so that I can easily find older emails. This email has been working fine for me for about the pass 5-6 years and now I have problems. I would like to be able to back up my emails onto my hard drive so that I have them on hand. What is the best way to go about this? Because of my file structure I am not able to see all of my messages on one screen. Is there a way to select emails from a certain year?
Thanks in advance for any help or suggestions.

''Try deleting old mail, emptying the Trash folder, and'' '''compacting your mail folders'''
If you did not compact the folders after marking the messages for deletion, you have not deleted anything.

Not enough disk space error - but not rea

I have a Nomad Jukebox 3 - no really. It runs like a champ!? I use it most often for recording 44KHz audio. I just did the auto-update thing for the mediasource and plugins, blah blah blah. Now I can't sync a large recording (about .4GB)?to my computer. It gives me this error:?There is not enough disk space at the destination for this transfer. this is obviously a bug because it was working before the update. Please HELP!!

I have the same problem - a Jukebox 3 which usually refuses to transfer files over about a gig.
My old system disk was 30Gb, and it always worked OK with that, but when I reinstalled everything on a 20Gb disk, I got problems. I slightly suspect it may get confused when it checks for disk space by a disk that's a lot bigger than was available back when the Jukebox 3 came out. If anyone knows how to fix this I'd be most grateful - last time I had to record the audio in through my soundcard!

Not enough disk space to install sims 2 from app store?

I've seen lots of threads resolving the problem of there not being enough disk space when installing sims by a CD Disk, but I'm trying to download it from the app store so none of them apply.
I have 12 GB of space free on my macbook and the application only needs 7.52 GB.
Ideas?
I keep getting 'not enough disk space available'.
I can't open it from the applications folder rather than the Disk because I haven't been allowed to buy/instal it yet.

I have cleared 17 GB of hard disk space and 11 GB of memory space.
The requirements online when installed say 10 GB of hard disk and 4 GB of memory.
I bought my Mac last year so I don't think my system is too old.
Ideas now?
When I get above 17 GB it instals but at the end of the hour long installation it again tells me it failed to download, not mentioning space .

Has anyone received an error or "there is not enough disk space to complete that operation" when trying to export a photo? If so, how did you fix it?

Exporting from iPhoto: "Not enough disk space to complete this operation"

Hello. I am trying to compile a quick time slide show. There are 72 photos with a total size of 136mb. I get the error "there is not enough disk space to complete this operation" when I try and Export it to my Desktop. Is there a limitation on size to export to Quicktime slide show? I have never noticed this problem before.
Thanks.

Greetings--I may have solved this one myself. I knew I had plenty of HD space (92GB) so that wasnt the problem as the error indicated, so:
1--'poofed' iPhoto icon from the Dock--(don't know what the exact description is, but I removed the iPhoto icon from the Dock and it disappeared in a cloud of poof!).
2--I ran Disc Utility and repaired the HD.
3-- I then did a Restart.
My Export to Quicktime seems to be working okay at the moment with no more error
message so maybe the HD just needed straightening up. If you dont hear from me on here again, consider the problem solved.
Cheers.

After clean install of Snow Leopard, Time Machine did not restore all files. When I try to restore these files I get "Not enough disk space" error. What do I need to do to get these important files back onto my Mac from my external hard drive??

For what the Apple Store's charge you can buy almost buy a new computer.
Just for giggles I brought my old laptop in for a drive upgrade and asked, they wanted $600 for a drive that only cost $120 at the time and it was a slow 5,400 RPM drive. The new Mac's of a similar make were going for $1000.
I did the drive replacement myself, got a faster drive of better quality for $300 instead.
Then another time I asked for a RAM upgrade from 4GB to 8GB, they wanted to charge $400 + $35 for the labor.
The same RAM is on Crucial.com for $90 and all I need is a 00 micro phillips screwdriver.
So you see what's going on here.
I think what you should do, if your out of warranty/AppleCare, is to call up the local PC tech guy who also does Mac's and have them fix you right up.
They can offer more personalized care which you need. Clone your old drive to the new and everything.
With Apple they are overworked at the Genius Bar and just place roadblocks so you buy a new machine instead.
For instance, all new iMac's now have proprietary drive software installed on the hard drives for heat monitoring. So now the only choice a user has is to bring their iMac into a Apple Store for a very expensive drive upgrade, which a person then decides the money is better spent buying a new machine.

FCP X version 10.1.1. When Sharing to DVD I get the following alert " There was an error burning your discd. Not enough Disk Space in Target Folder" I have 700GB   free. Where is this target folder located? how can I fix this problem? not space prob

Sharing to DVD I get the following alert " There was an error burning your disc. Not enough Disk Space in Target Folder" I have 700GB   free. Where is this target folder located? How can I fix this problem? This is definitely not a space problem.
Since starting with FCP X, there has been tons of issues, now that the product actually works with the exception above, makes it impossible to share the production. Has Apple fixed this problem. is there a knowledge base article on this?
On another note, One reason I have not purchased support on FCP X is because you sold a product that never worked for almost an entire year or more.   Now I can finally finish my project, I cannot share it.....Really. This has to be fixed now, I am loosing money as I typed this.

Just curious, why would repairing permissions, rebooting ( rebooted 2 times already today) or creating a new user possibly fix this.
I cannot create a new user, that is way too much work. I will repair permissions again, I repaired permissions just a few days ago. Then I will reboot, login and turn off App Nap and rerun the Share DVD.
There must be something seriously wrong with the OS if your are suggesting creating another user.   WOW!
