I just had a pop-up tell me my SSD is full. But I have lots of RAM available. Computer does seem slow and delicate tho. What's up? Could my machine be spending SSD space and not RAM?
I just had a pop-up tell me my SSD is full. I have tons of RAM available. Computer does seem slow and delicate tho. What's up? Thanx.
Hello and thanqueue again KW. I have had power management issues in the past tho they seemed to disappear with a new battery. But I'll try this before I do the dreaded re-install. haha. And resetting the PRAM is something one should do from time to time if I recall correctly. And it's been at least 3 years since I did that.
So I'll probably try that again. Thanqueue.
And as I mentioned above, yeah I probably don't even have an SSD, I'd never heard of it before the other night and know I've never purchased one. So thanx pop-iup for the totally bogus info, tho it's gotten me to this discussion page which is very helpful and I appreciate the suggestions.
In its favour, the machine will shut down normally when I'm brave enough to do so. But it's quite a few moments till all the desktop is restored again when repowered, so I do tend to keep it in sleep mode for days, even weeks sometimes, knowing I'm putting extra wear and tear on it.
But at one point a few years ago, it took 5 minutes just to hear the chime. It's better now, I hear the chime almost immediately, then it clunks into working mode obviously quite overburdened. It's a wonder it's still speaking to me! And I use it fairly heavily without too much problem (tho have some spods and the occassional app crash), have over a million files, I suppose that's not unusual.. it was making duplicate files on its own for a while but I think that's stopped. hahaha. etc etc and so on.
But it is very odd to have it, with a battery full of power or even plugged in, just drop out of commission when my back is turned lol for even a few minutes. There seems to be some misguided trigger at work. So I'll czeck those power re-sets and see if that takes care of it.
Domo gosaimashita!

Apple sends notification that my icloud account is full but I have lots of free space
Has anyone recieved erroneous notifications to upgrade your icloud account? I got an email today which said my account was full but I actually have lot's of free storage. The thing that worry me the most is that the email said my devices could not be backup anymore unless I free or purchase more space. I wanted to contact support to get an explanation of why I got this email. I try to contact support via email for about 15 minutes till I finally gave up because I could not find a link to send an email to Apple support. Does anyone have this link? I am realy dissapointed. I have two macbook pros, one ipad, two iphones, 27" cinema display, time capsule, itunes match, 30GB of icloud storage, and all the Apple apps. After all the money I spend on Apple I have the expectation that I should be able to contact them by email.

I don't know who 'Mrs Gideon' is, but we are fellow users here on these forums, you're not talking to iTunes Support nor Apple.
If you have previously contacted support then you can use the same method that you used last time, and, if you have a case number, include that as well

I broke my ipod 5 generation ipod and had some pretty important notes on there and it will not start again. I also have an ipod 4th generation and I was wondering if you could use icloud or something to restore my notes on to this ipod. Any ideas?
If you had been syncing notes on your iPod with iCloud before this happened, go to icloud.com and confirm that your notes are still there. If they are, you could either email them to yourself one at a time from icloud.com or you could sign into your icloud account on your other iPad in Settings>iCloud and turn Notes to On to sync them to your other iPod.

Problem: slow connection. I have an iMac (2007) running on Mac OS X 10.6.8. I just had my internet speed increased from 1 to 3 Mbps but my connection slowed down considerably. Do I have to change any setting on the computer, and how?
One possibility is that you may need to "Upgrade" your Cable /DSL Modem if you have an older unit. ISP's that provide your Internet service in recent years have been switching over from DOCSIS 2.1 version Modems to DOCSIS 3.0 version Modems, which handle the new higher data streaming speeds the ISP's are offering. I would suggest you call your ISP's Technical Support and inquire about this possibility.

I have bought 50 gb of storage and iTunes is still saying there is not enough storage to download tv shows. But I have 46 gb still available. How can I fix this?
iCloud storage cannot be used to download content, because its not on your phone.
You need physical local storage on your Phone not iCloud to download content.
If your iPhone no longer has enough space, you will need to delete things off your iPhone to make room. -

I can't figure out why my ipad is saying it's full but I have just purchased storage on the cloud
Not sure what I am doing wrong here. I am not able to take pic or vids on ipad as it's saying it's full but I have purchased storage on the cloud and set it up as directed on the website
Can anyone help me figure out what I need to do please
ThanksAn easy check. Go into the settings on your iPad, and under your iCloud account, check the setting for "photos". If there is a setting for "my photo stream" and it is on, then you are using Photo Stream - My Photo Stream FAQ - Apple Support
Note from that FAQ that Photo Stream never used any of your personal iCloud storage anyway, so buying more personal storage does not increase space for photo stream. Photo stream is a system intended for synchronization of images across multiple devices and was never intended to be used as permanent storage or backup. It is a temporary parking place for images to allow for them to be shared across multiple devices.
With iOS 8.3 and OS X 10.10.3, there is a new service, iCloud Photo Library which actually IS online storage of your photo's - all your photo's. It does use space in your personal iCloud account. Since the default free storage is only 5GB and is used for your iCloud mail, backups, synchronized files and data, the default setting for iCloud Photo Library is to keep all photo's on the device as they are, in order not to fill up your free iCloud storage. If you purchase additional storage and want to remove photos from an iDevice or computer, then you need to change the settings on the device to clear out space once it has uploaded images to your iCloud account.
If, in your iPad's settings, general, about just look at the "version" line. If it is not showing 8.3, then you cannot possibly be using iCloud Photo Library and must be using Photo Stream. Until you upgrade to iOS 8.3 you would not even have the option to use iCloud Photo Library as it is a new service, introduced with iOS 8.3.
If you are running iOS 8.3, under your iCloud account settings, under "Photos" you will have three settings:
1. iCloud Photo Library - enable this to use your personal iCloud account storage for cloud storage of your photo library
2. My Photo Stream - enable this to synchronize photo's across all your devices that share the same iCloud account. This does NOT use any of your personal iCloud account's storage. Images will be automatically deleted from your stream after 30 days.
3. iCloud Photo Sharing - allows you to create albums which can be shared (viewed) with others. -

from some reason (i'm not sure why..) my whole iphoto library got deleted. I restored the whole library from my backup. Now all the photos are blank but steel have the photo info. (date, res., size etc.) Do you know what's the prob.? why can't i see my pics.
It's says that file does not exist. How come? And why does it still show the image info.?
Where can i find those files (i have a daily backup)
The original image files are missing form your iPhoto library or iPhoto cannot find them, because the link to the originals has been broken. The image info is stored in the internal libraries, independent of the original files. That is, why you are still seeing them.
I restored the whole library from my backup.
Try restoring from an older backup, from before you first noticed the problem.
How large is the library, that you restored? Is the file size large enough to hold all your photos, or has the size been reduced? If the library is still large, the photos may still be inside, even if iPhoto cannot find them.
It's says that file does not exist. How come?
What happened, before your iPhoto library got deleted? Which applications have you been running, or which new software have installed or upgraded? Have you moved the library to a different disk or tried to use it from different user account or access it over the network? -

I changed my HD "C". After reinstalling P Element 2 I got a problem. I can't open Photoshop Element. Error message is "Your working disc is full" But I have 61Go free on "C" HD and more than 1To free on "D" disc.
Try resetting the pse 2 preferences and see if that clears things up.

Press and hold down the Shift+Ctrl+Alt keys just after starting the launch of pse 2
Keep holding the keys down until you get a dialog asking if you want to Delete the Adobe Photoshop Elements Settings File
