HT4137 No Free Space available to restore back up

My iphone 5 's power button stopped working and the battery was shot. I went to the apple store and they replaced it no questions asked. They told me to come home and restore from back up. Well, 2 hours later I'm still not restored. I keep getting an error saying iphone can't be restored from back up because no available free space. Can someone assist me in freeing up space?

Restore as new and sync back the desired content.
Just curious, did you confirm it was replaced with the same capacity device?

  • Free space available in tablespace

    Hi, Any one help me how to check how much free space available on a particular Tablespace. Appreciate if you provide query.
    Thanks & Regards

    This SQL will return free space by datafile in the tablespace.
    SELECT a.name FileName, a.status, c.bytes/1024 CurrentSize, a.create_bytes/1024 SizeCreated,
    sum(b.bytes/1024) FreeSpace, max(b.bytes/1024) LargeFragment
    from sys.v_$datafile a, sys.dba_free_space b, sys.dba_data_files c

  • Can't save file on iOS device with low free space available

    Hi,
    I was using SharedObject to save settings in my game. However, recently I discovered on one of our devices it doesn't work. I've found somewhere on this forum discussion that air can't save sharedobject when available space is lower than about 300mb (link here: Bug#3711301 - sharedobjects fail when available storage is low). On my iphone it's about 40mb, but file, which I want to save is just 2 variables.. persistenceManager doesn't work too (well i've looked at source and it's just using SharedObject). So i've decided to just write file by myself:
    declarations:
    public var mute:Boolean = false;
    public static var fullId:String = "";
    then in constructor:
    flash.net.registerClassAlias("Settings", GameSettings);
    load();
    and finally save() and load() functions:
    public function save():void
      try {
      log("begin save()");
      var file:File = File.applicationStorageDirectory.resolvePath("settings.txt");
      var stream:FileStream = new FileStream();
      stream.open(file, FileMode.WRITE);
      var settings:GameSettings = new GameSettings();
      settings.fullId = fullId;
      settings.mute = mute;
      stream.writeObject(settings);
      stream.close();
      log("end save()");
      catch (error:Error) {
      log("[ERROR] " + error.name + ": " + error.message + "\n" + error.getStackTrace());
      public function load():void
      try {
      log("begin load()");
      var file:File = File.applicationStorageDirectory.resolvePath("settings.txt");
      if(!file.exists){
      log("settings.txt does not exist, created new one..");
      save();
      return;
      var stream:FileStream = new FileStream();
      stream.open(file, FileMode.READ);
      var settings:GameSettings = stream.readObject() as GameSettings;
      mute = settings.mute;
      fullId = settings.fullId;
      log("loaded mute = " + mute);
      log("loaded fullId = " + fullId);
      stream.close();
      log("end load()");
      catch (error:Error) {
      log("[ERROR] " + error.name + ": " + error.message + "\n" + error.getStackTrace());
    My GameSettings class:
    package
      public class GameSettings
      public var fullId:String;
      public var mute:Boolean;
      public function GameSettings()
    This works on desktop, android. Works on my ipad too, which has 10gb of free space. However, like I said, it doesn't work on iphone5s with 40mb free memory.
    Here's a log:
    begin load()
    settings.txt does not exist, created new one..
    [ERROR] Error: Error #0
         at Autumn/save()
         at Autumn/load()
         at Autumn()
    It's clear that AIR can't open or write to 'settings.txt' file. What can I do to solve that issue (other than making more free space on iphone)? Is there any workaround for that?

    Any help please?

  • After Yosemite Upgrade my Macbook shows incorrect free space available on Macintosh HD

    Hey all .... after doing the Yosemite upgrade on my Mid 2010 15" MacBook Pro it finished but when I double click on the Macintosh HD it shows 140.62 TB available ... kinda impossible since I only have a 500GB drive inside the laptop ...
    Methinks I found a bug ... not a huge deal as I know it's likely 140.62 GB free as opposed to TB ... just find it curious ...

    Hey - did you get anywhere with this?
    I have the exact same problem and it is definitely related to iTunes Match (I enabled 24 hours ago and the problem started immediately).
    In my case the actual phone displays the correct information (about 1.3gb free) but via iTunes (either connecting over wifi or over usb) it displays 19.4 gb free.
    In my case the difference is almost exactly the size of my iTunes library.
    Here is what I belive is happening (no fix yet).
    I have enabled iTunes Match on my phone but I have left the song files on the phone (i.e. I play files actually from the device and not from the cloud) . Now, when I connect to iTunes, iTunes sees merely that iTunes Match is enabled and therefore belives that the phone does not contain any downloaded music (or at least did not contain any at the point iTunes Match was enabled) and therefore displays a library-size chunk as free space.
    One fix which I suspect would work would be to delete my entire library from the iPhone, enable itunes Match and redownload the entire library from the phone. That however is not something I want to entertain at present.
    This has to be a bug at Apple's end - I hope they fix it soon!

  • Unable to install when 32GB free space available

    LabVIEW 5.1 installer gave an error stating that my application could not be installed because there wasn't enough free disk space. The app requires ~50MB, there was > 32GB of free space on the C: drive.

    You may also suggest using a 3rd party partitioner like Partition Magic, so it's a dynamic partition done through the OS, vs fdisk-ing it.
    I'm not sure if this is a viable alternative, but you may want to see if just the LV 5.1 runtime engine installs w/o error, then build the vi's as an executable.
    I'd try the standalone RT Engine, vs. doing it off the CD:

  • MBP unresponsive and zero free space available

    Many people using this MB nobody cared to let me know we were running out of space. Today I was downloading a big file (1GB) when I got the "running out of space" alert message. Went to open info in the HD and saw there was only 255MB!!! I opened Trash but before I could hit "empty trash" the system froze. I can see there is "zero bytes" as available space... Nothing is responding, nneither the trackpad not the keyboard. SOS! I don't know what to do... It has been frozen for 1/2 an hour now..
    What should I Do? MBP is running Mavericks.

    Step 1   
    The first step in dealing with a startup failure is to secure the data. If you want to preserve the contents of the startup drive, and you don't already have at least one current backup, you must try to back up now, before you do anything else. It may or may not be possible. If you don't care about the data that has changed since the last backup, you can skip this step.
    There are several ways to back up a Mac that is unable to start. You need an external hard drive to hold the backup data.
    a. Start up from the Recovery partition, or from a local Time Machine backup volume (option key at startup.) When the OS X Utilities screen appears, launch Disk Utility and follow the instructions in this support article, under “Instructions for backing up to an external hard disk via Disk Utility.” The article refers to starting up from a DVD, but the procedure in Recovery mode is the same. You don't need a DVD if you're running OS X 10.7 or later. 
    b. If Step 1a fails because of disk errors, and no other Mac is available, then you may be able to salvage some of your files by copying them in the Finder. If you already have an external drive with OS X installed, start up from it. Otherwise, if you have Internet access, follow the instructions on this page to prepare the external drive and install OS X on it. You'll use the Recovery installer, rather than downloading it from the App Store.
    c. If you have access to a working Mac, and both it and the non-working Mac have FireWire or Thunderbolt ports, start the non-working Mac in target disk mode. Use the working Mac to copy the data to another drive. This technique won't work with USB, Ethernet, Wi-Fi, or Bluetooth.
    d. If the internal drive of the non-working Mac is user-replaceable, remove it and mount it in an external enclosure or drive dock. Use another Mac to copy the data.
    Step 2
    You might be able to start up in safe mode even though you can't start up normally. Otherwise, start up from an external drive, or else use the technique in Step 1b, 1c, or 1d to mount the internal drive and delete some files. According to Apple documentation, you need at least 9 GB of available space on the startup volume (as shown in the Finder Info window) for normal operation.

  • ITunes could not back up the iPhone because not enough free space is available on this computer

    iTunes 11.0.1 (22)
    Mac OS X 10.6.8
    218.83 GB available
    iOS 6.0.2
    iPhone5
    I get this error occasionally since getting the iPhone5 in October. My last successful back up to thei Mac was yesterday. Tonight, no backup.
    One time when this occurred I had trashed files, and after I emptied the Trash the sympton went away. Tonight I had files in the Trash and emptie the Trash before connecting my iPhone and now no backup allowed.
    I have quit and relaunched iTunes, and unconnected and connected the iPhone tonight with no change in the symptom.
    My next counter measure will be to reboot.
    Any suggestions?

    On my computer (Spring 2006 iMac, Snow Leopard, iTunes 11.1.3):
      - I have 1.36 _terabytes_ of free space on my system disk.
      - I have 2.1 _terabytes_ of free space on my Drobo[*] which contains my iTunes library.
    My iPhone is an iPhone 5S 64Gb.
    A backup should require, one would assume, less than 64Gb. In other words, a drop in the ocean of free space available to iTunes.
    ... and yet EVERY time I attempt a backup to my computer since getting my 5S it says:
        'iTunes could not back up the iPhone "[name]'s iPhone" because not enough free space is available on this computer. Removing files and emptying the Trash will free up additional space.'
    It's very clear that there's a bug given how much space I have available, and it's been present for 2+ months. :/ I had been able to back up my iPhone 4S.
    - Stephen
    [*] As far as the OS is concerned, the volume has 3.22Tb free, but it is backed by 2.10Tb of actual available space. In any case, "a whole heck of a lot".

  • How to restore the lost free space on my hard drive ? :(

    Hey all ...
    One week ago, I tried to Install a game ... but while it was installing ... I Forced quit the installing because my macbook froze . I realized that the free space available on my hard drive is less than what it was before ... about 17 GB were gone
    I used the " Clean My Mac " app to remove not used and unwanted files but my hard drive free space still the same
    So right now i need the best solution from you guys ... and Im thinking to format my macbook but I dont how :P

    Welcome to Apple Discussions
    Don't rush to reformat and reinstall just yet, grab a copy of Disc Inventory X and see if you can see the unwanted file(s) that's taking the space with that ?

  • 72GB of free space missing...again.

    Ok, so I have been having this issue intermittently since iOS 7.0. I am now on 8.3 (just upgraded to it this morning) but the problem is still here.
    Basically, after a weekend of streaming a LOT of purchased videos to my iPad (not downloading them, mind you, but "streaming" from the cloud), my 128GB iPad will suddenly decide that it has no more free space. In Settings>General>Usage, it will show less than a gigabyte of free space; in fact this morning when I tried to update to 8.3 it told me there was not enough free space to even download the update.
    I know for a FACT that I am only actually using about 30% or so of the device's capacity. I can go through the usage section and add everything up manually, or better yet, just plug it in to iTunes. iTunes will tell me that the iPad has 73GB of free space available!
    Why the discrepancy? I've managed to fix this before (I do NOT want to factory restore, and quite frankly I shouldn't have to), but I can't remember how I did it. It seems to me that there is some sort of download cache that the iPad uses when I stream my purchased videos, then it forgets that it downloaded those and so it doesn't clean up after itself...
    Any help here would be great...this is probably the 5th time I've had this happen after streaming a lot of my purchased videos, and streaming purchased videos is the only thing that seems to actually cause this storage capacity black hole.

    Ok, after messing around a bit more it would appear that I've fixed the issue.
    Heres how:
    In Settings>iTunes & App Store: Turn OFF Show All Music and Videos as well as iTunes Match.
    Open the Videos app, hit edit, and delete anything that is showing up in there (even though there shouldn't be anything in there now since none of them have ever been downloaded by me).
    Go back to Settings>iTunes & App Store, turn Show All Music and Videos and iTunes Match back ON.

  • Disc utility inconsistent free space

    Hey guys,
    My hard drive reports inconsistent free space using various methods.
    When I click "get info" on my Macintosh HD, it reports 18GB free.
    When I use disk utility, it reports 7GB free.
    After verifying the partition, I ran a disk repair using the disc utility on startup and the free space bumped up to 12GB. Strangely, when I exit startup repair and run disk utility after entering the OS, disk utility still reports 7GB. Re-entering the startup disc utility reports 12GB free space!
    My hard drive is an OCZ Vertex II LE 60GB SSD.
    Ultimately I am trying to create a partition for bootcamp, but it keeps telling me i have less than 10GB free space. I can understand if "get info" is unable to see certain files due to permissions, but why should disk utility report different values via startup and OS? Is there any way around this so that I can get bootcamp to allow me to create the partition?
    Any help would be great, thanks!

    Disk Utility will show two different "free" readings, depending on where you look.
    Sounds odd, but they're for different purposes. The larger figure, which the Finder and other things will use, is the total free space available.
    The second is the amount of free space available for a new partition. It's shown when you select the top line for the drive, click the Partition tab, then select a partition, the "Available" amount may be smaller.
    This is because partitions, unlike folders, must occupy contiguous space on a disk. The data on your OSX partition is scattered over it, not all nicely packed together. That's normal, as you add, update, and delete files, not every nook and cranny is used again immediately.
    But whether there's 7 GB free or 18, that probably isn't enough to be adding a partition; it's probably too little for OSX to operate well. There's no "hard and fast" rule, but you should always have at least 10 GB or 10% of your OSX drive free; many folks say 15% or more.
    You could back up your drive (on two different HDs, to be safe), reformat it to 2 parttions, then restore the backup. But it's going to be very tight, and you'll likely have performance problems because of it.
    Try to delete anything you don't need, and/or offload stuff you don't use often and delete it.

  • How can I get the amount of free space that is on my drive to show at the bottom of the drive in Lion.

    How can I get the amount of free space that is on my drive to show at the bottom of the drive in Lion.
    This is a must feature for me and I may have to go back to Snow Leopard.
    Please help!

    Right click on your desktop and choose "viewer options". Adjust the spacing and the size of your icons and you should be able to see the size of your drive(s) and the free space available on each drive with the exception of your bootcamp drive which will only show the overall size of the drive you have it on.  This may be different if you only have one system drive (like on a Mac Book Pro) with a partition containing bootcamp on it. this may only show you the overall capacity, I can't say for sure though as I only use a Mac Pro with 4 seperate Hard Drives which are showing both overall capacity and free space available. Hope this helps

  • Why doesn't free space increase when I delete songs?

    I have a 3rd gen iPod Nano that I have had for 4+ years. I had a problem with it last week - I was no longer able to copy songs to it, so I did a restore and then reloaded a bunch of songs. This worked fine. Now what I find, though, is that when I delete songs, the amount of free space available does not increase (no matter how many I delete). Does anyone have any idea what's causing this? Thanks.

    So you manually manage the iPod's contents then?  Are you deleting the tracks from the iPod itself or from your actual iTunes library?
    What happens if you do a hard reset the iPod after removing the content?  Do the free space reappear then?

  • Macintosh HD and Bootcamp Installer Disagree on Free space on Hard Drive

    Im having a hard drive issue.
    I have 500 gb and macosx shows about 300gb free.
    I'm attempting to install windows and the assistant gives about 100gb of space but I'd like 200 or so for windows.
    Theres a discrepancy in available hard drive space!
    I had installed windows prior and made the mistake of following some bad advice and re partitioning for extra space within windows 8. After this I lost the windows partition. I have a third party disk utility that says the drive needs repaired. The drive has issues with discrepancies in drive space and sectors used and not used. The volume gets repaired and allowed some more space for windows (the 100gb) but I should assumably be allowed most all the free space available and would like to (iI have an external for large files).
    How can I fix this? I dont mind command line. Are there third party utilities?

    You have two issues.
    1. Partitioning within Windows and OS X are using two different personalities of a disk, and if not kept in sync, you run into this issue. Apple does not allow Windows partition to be resized because they do not provide the appropriate tools to keep them in sync.
    2. If you are willing to take a backup of OS X and all your files, the cleanest method is to erase the drive and restore from a backup, preferably using a Time Machine backup.

  • Free space on boot drive constantly decreases until reboot

    Hi there. I have a really weird thing happening that I've never seen before.
    I'm running 10.7.4 on an iMac, and have about 45GB free on the system drive. At least that's right after I boot up the system. After that, the free space available on my HD slowly but constantly decreases, and the computer slowly but surely becomes less responsive. When the free space on the boot drive gets down around 37GB (which takes 2-3 days... I usually never turn the machine off) I get so many spinning beach balls... in ALL applications... that the computer becomes basically unuseable and I am forced to reboot. But as soon as I do, free space is back up to 45GB, and computer is snappy and fast again.
    What the heck?

    Your problem is excessive swapping of data between physical memory and virtual memory.
    That can happen for two reasons:
    (1) You have a long-running process with a memory leak (i.e., a bug), or
    (2) You don't have enough memory installed for your usage pattern.
    Tracking down a memory leak can be difficult, and it may come down to a process of elimination. In Activity Monitor, select All Processes from the menu in the toolbar, if not already selected. Click the heading of the Real Mem column in the process table once or twice to sort the table with the highest value at the top. If one process (not including "kernel_task") is using much more memory than all the others, that could be an indication of a leak. A better indication would be a process that continually grabs more and more memory over time without ever releasing it.
    This suggestion is only for users familiar with the shell. For a more precise, but potentially misleading, test, run the following command:
    sudo leaks -nocontext -nostacks process | grep total
    where process is the name of a process you suspect of leaking memory. Almost every process will leak some memory; the question is how much, and especially how much the leak increases with time. I can’t be more specific. See the leaks(1) man page and the Apple developer documentation for details:
    Memory Usage Performance Guidelines: About the Virtual Memory System
    If you don't have an obvious memory leak, your options are to install more memory (if possible) or to run fewer programs simultaneously.
