HT201364 How do I get more free space in order to upgrade to Mavericks OS. I only have 1gb available and I need 2

How do I get more memory so I can upgrade to Mavericks OS? It is telling me I need 2GB and I only have 1GB available.

You need to buy and install more RAM. Use a source such as OWC or Crucial.

    What, specifically, is your Mac model?
    MacBook Pro, but need the year it was released, processor speed, etc. This will determine if it *can* be upgraded further.

    Please for referral information, how can I get more disk space, or actually information and guidelines that can have enough free disk space. How, I have to delete documents or downloading to another drive. (The problem is that Safari could not download the file "iTunesSetup.exe" because there is not enough free disk space.Try deleting documents or downloading to another drive) ... Perhaps this is the main problem why can not open iTunes and inscription is: the folder "iTunes" can not be found or created, and is required. The default location for this folder is inside the "Music" folder. - And after options ok, appears option: Choose iTunes Library with inscription iTunes needs a library to continue. You may choose an existing iTunes library or create a new one - but still following options Choose Library and the following options can not open iTunes ... Please for instructions on how to eliminate the problem or eror ...

    buy an external HD   1TB for $60
    NO notebook is a mass storage device, so dont try to turn it into one, it doesnt work that way.
    Unless youre using it every couple weeks, its static data and should be on an external HD
    In the case of a Macbook Air or Macbook Pro Retina with ‘limited’ storage on the SSD, this distinction becomes more important in that in an ever rapidly increasing file-size world, you keep vital large media files, pics, video, PDF collections, music off your SSD and archived on external storage, for sake of the necessary room for your system to have free space to operate, store future applications and general workspace.  You should never be put in the position of considering “deleting things” on your macbook SSD in order to ‘make space’.
    Professionals who create and import very large amounts of data have almost no change in the available space on their computers internal HD because they are constantly archiving data to arrays of external or networked HD.
    Or in the case of the consumer this means you keep folders for large imported or created data and you ritually offload and archive this data for safekeeping, not only to safeguard the data in case your macbook has a HD crash, or gets stolen, but importantly in keeping the ‘breathing room’ open for your computer to operate, expand, create files, add applications, for your APPS to create temp files, and for general operation.

    how do I get a free app from the US store, as it's not in the UK store, and it say my id is not valid when I swich stores?

    To be able to use the US store you will need to be in the US and have a US billing address on your account. You can try requesting that it be added to the UK store, but unless the app's developer agrees to it then Apple won't be able to put it in the UK store : http://www.apple.com/feedback/itunes.html

    You may have to do this several times.
    Saw this solution on another post about an iPad in a school environment. Might work on your iPad so you won't lose everything.

    ‘iPad is disabled’ fix without resetting using iTunes
    Today I met my match with an iPad that had a passcode entered too many times, resulting in it displaying the message ‘iPad is disabled – Connect to iTunes’. This was a student iPad and since they use Notability for most of their work there was a chance that her files were not all backed up to the cloud. I really wanted to just re-activate the iPad instead of totally resetting it back to our default image.
    I reached out to my PLN on Twitter and had some help from a few people through retweets and a couple of clarification tweets. I love that so many are willing to help out so quickly. Through this I also learned that I look like Lt. Riker from Star Trek (thanks @FillineMachine).
    Through some trial and error (and a little sheer luck), I was able to reactivate the iPad without loosing any data. Note, this will only work on the computer it last synced with. Here’s how:
    1. Configurator is useless in reactivating a locked iPad. You will only be able to completely reformat the iPad using Configurator. If that’s ok with you, go for it – otherwise don’t waste your time trying to figure it out.
    2. Open iTunes with the iPad disconnected.
    3. Connect the iPad to the computer and wait for it to show up in the devices section in iTunes.
    4. Click on the iPad name when it appears and you will be given the option to restore a backup or setup as a new iPad (since it is locked).
    5. Click ‘Setup as new iPad’ and then click restore.
    6. The iPad will start backing up before it does the full restore and sync. CANCEL THE BACKUP IMMEDIATELY. You do this by clicking the small x in the status window in iTunes.
    7. When the backup cancels, it immediately starts syncing – cancel this as well using the same small x in the iTunes status window.
    8. The first stage in the restore process unlocks the iPad, you are basically just canceling out the restore process as soon as it reactivates the iPad.
    If done correctly, you will experience no data loss and the result will be a reactivated iPad. I have now tried this with about 5 iPads that were locked identically by students and each time it worked like a charm.
    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~
    Try it and good luck. You have nothing more to lose if it doesn't work for you.

  • How can i get more disk space on my i phone

    i purchased music from i tunes but i can't sync my i ohone it's telling me i need more room how can i get more space on the phone i have an i phone 4s.

    Transfer photos & videos from your iOS device to your computer, and then delete them off of the device.

  • How do you create additional free space on the volume containing the iPhoto library?  I have plenty of HD space.

    How do you create additional free space on the volume containing the iPhoto library?  When attempting to import images from a CD I get an "Insufficient Disk Space" message albeit there is plaenty of additional space on the hard drive.

    How much free space do you have on your hard drive?  Try the following:
    1 - delete the iPhoto preference file, com.apple.iPhoto.plist, that resides in your
         User/Home/Library/ Preferences folder.
    2 - delete iPhoto's cache file, Cache.db, that is located in your
    User/Home/Library/Caches/com.apple.iPhoto folder (Snow Leopard and Earlier).
    or with Mt. Lion from the User/Library/Containers/com.apple.iPhoto/
    Data/Library/Caches/com.apple.iPhoto folder
    3 - launch iPhoto and try again.
    NOTE: If you're moved your library from its default location in your Home/Pictures folder you will have to point iPhoto to its new location when you next open iPhoto by holding down the Option key when launching iPhoto.  You'll also have to reset the iPhoto's various preferences.
    NOTE 2:  In Lion and Mountain Lion the Library folder is now invisible. To make it permanently visible enter the following in the Terminal application window: chflags nohidden ~/Library and hit the Enter button - 10.7: Un-hide the User Library folder.

  • More free space after iOS 5 upgrade!.

    I actually have 2.5 Gb more free space on my 32Gb iPhone 4 after the iOS5 upgrade.  Is this possible?

    I am also lost.  I upgraded itunes and ios5 on my iPhone4.  Now I have a gray slate screen on my IP4 that just says iPhone, and I am being asked to configure my device.  I cannot receive phone calls.  They go directly to voice mail, and I cannot make phone calls.  I have tried "everything".  Even with it "looking like" a backup/restore may be in process, it does not backup or restore.  I have no device, no music, no contacts, no pictures.  Can anyone help? Please....

  • How do I create more free space on my MacBook?

    I've had my MacBook since Christmas of 2006 (bought it brand new with 1 GB of memory), and already my computer is telling me I have run out of free space. I have many songs and pictures saved, and no external hard drive. Is there a way to free up space without having to buy anything additional for my computer? I'm very upset. I've tried deleting many pictures from my computer, and I've also tried to delete programs, but I really don't own that many programs that didn't come with this mac., that would cause my computer to have less space. I can't even import new songs into my iTunes, or import new pictures into my iPhoto. Any advice would be great. If I've left any important info out that may help someone to give me advice, let me know and I'll try to fill you in. Thank you.

    This may help.

  • How do you get more free effects to use in Final Cut pro x?

    I am looking for a safe free place to download more effects that I can use on my videos in Final cut pro x that include effects that aren't just limited to the colors of the video. I also hope that the place will have clear instructions on how to download them onto final cut pro x. If you know of a place like this let me know, thank you!

    fcp.co is my go to place for transitions and effects. Most are between $20 and $50 and because they have many effect in each are well worth the money spent. My favorites are Pixel Studios and Lucas, both purchased through FX Factory. Look at the examples and demo videos before you buy.
    Good luck!

    Option to purchase more cloud storage would be available in future. Presently, you'll have to manage with the allocated 20 GB or buy Creative Cloud for teams which has100 GB cloud space per user.

  • After installing from ios 5, we lost memory. How could we get more momory space? Or could we disable some features from ios 5 for operating on ipod touch? We can't get all apps and music on this device, which were on the phone on ios 4 before. Help us!!!

    How could we go to ios4, when ios5 uses so much memory space?

    Start by setting it up as new device, without using the latest backup to restore your settings: How to back up your data and set up as a new device
    If your "other" section is bigger than 1GB, there have been problems during the sync process and some data got damaged. Only a restore can reduce the size back to normal again.
