I'm getting an error 'Insufficient Disk Space' when trying to import

Does anyone know what I can do to fix this? It is telling me I need 6MB of additional free space but despite deleting an abundance of other photos and seemingly freeing up the space I still cannot import and get the same error? HELP!

Even assuming that the GB was a typo and should be MB you're still on the hairy edge.

  • Why am I getting a message "Insufficient Disk Space"

    I installed a new hard drive yesterday, and used Time Machine to restore all the information from my old hard drive.  Today I tried to open iPhoto and had a message that it was not found so I used the install disk for iPhoto and reinstalled.  I have my former iPhoto Library, but when I try to import new photos from my desk top, I get the message "Insufficient Disk Space" "iPhoto cannot import your photos because there is not enough free space on the volume containing your iPhoto library".  I don't understand since I have 354 GB available on my hard drive. What do I need to do to fix?

    That's an indication that the library is damaged. Make a temporary, backup copy (if you don't already have a backup copy) of the library and apply the two fixes below in order as needed:
    Fix #1
    Launch iPhoto with the Command+Option keys held down and rebuild the library.
    Select the options identified in the screenshot. 
    Fix #2
    Using iPhoto Library Manager  to Rebuild Your iPhoto Library
    Download iPhoto Library Manager and launch.
    Click on the Add Library button, navigate to your Home/Pictures folder and select your iPhoto Library folder.
    Now that the library is listed in the left hand pane of iPLM, click on your library and go to the File ➙ Rebuild Library menu option
    In the next  window name the new library and select the location you want it to be placed.
    Click on the Create button.
    Note: This creates a new library based on the LIbraryData.xml file in the library and will recover Events, Albums, keywords, titles and comments but not books, calendars or slideshows. The original library will be left untouched for further attempts at fixing the problem or in case the rebuilt library is not satisfactory.

  • Photoshop Installer Error "Insufficient Disk Space" but I have more than enough.

    I am trying to download the Photoshop CS6 trial. My computer has 2 hard drives, one is full but the other has plenty of space. Yet when I try to install Photoshop, and set it to save on that hard drive, it's not working and says that there's insufficient disk space when there's more than enough on that one. Photoshop tells me I require 1 Gb, I have 600+ Gb, I don't know why it's giving me this proiblem. Is there something I'm doing wrong? I've reinstall the Download Assistant several times, I was sure to assign it to the correct hard drive. Same for installing Photoshop. What else can I do to try and solve this problem?

  • Insufficient disk space when installing Weblogic 9.2MP3 on Solaris 9 or 10

    Insufficient disk space when installing Weblogic 923 on Solaris 9 or 10 using bin file installer :
    bash-2.05$ ./server923_solaris32.bin -mode=console
    ** Insufficient disk space! The installer requires:
    ** 132MB for the BEA Home at /mnt/home2/i817284/sol_usphlcsx0003/wl92 and
    ** 664MB temporary work space at /var/tmp/aaa1baaJn.
    ** There is only 0MB available at /mnt/home2.
    There are more than enough (several gigs) of free space in all those directories as verified by df -k...
    Solution for jar file doesn't work, obviously ;)

    bumping this up in hopes of an answer....
    it appears that the jar installer works fine, the problem is with .bin installers only.....
    in install docs found proposed solution of "use df compatible with used posix" - that must be a joke, right ??
    we're supposed to replace df that comes with OS with some version that works with posix used by the installer ?? Really ?@?@?

  • I have cs4. Had to rebuild my mac OS after malware infected it. Now getting an error code 150:30 when trying to open PS. Can this be fixed or do I have to upgrade to cs6?

    I have cs4. Had to rebuild my mac OS after malware infected it. Now getting an error code 150:30 when trying to open PS. Can this be fixed or do I have to upgrade to cs6?

    150:30 means licensing is broken. It's a common CS4 error. On Macs it usually happens when Photoshop is retrieved from backup or migrated from another Mac. Photoshop is never meant to be moved that way. As advised, you should uninstall and reinstall from your discs.
    Sine reinstall only apply the base install and the CS4 Help > Update function is outdated, you will have to manually download and install your updates from here:  Product updates for Bridge and Photoshop.

  • Error: Insufficient disk space & file write permissions

    when my client edits a page and the click save i get the following error:
    the permissions for the includes folder are 755.
    I dont have this problem on other websites however and they are setup the same way.

    I am having the identical problem this week with incontext editing of a website I could edit fine last week with incontext editing but this week I cannot save changes to any page I try to edit, even though I've not made any changes to the site in the week since.
    If I Edit one page and try to save the changes, I get one of two errors:
    "The operation could not be performed because a problem occured while attempting to connect to the server. Please check your connection and try again."
    or
    "The operation could not be performed because there is insufficient disk space or the file write permission is not granted."
    I then went to the Incontext editing control panel, Manage Users, Configure Site and there I can click Test Connection and it reports it can successfully connect to the site using FTP. But when I try to Save that Configure Site (even though I've made no changes except to click Test Connection) I get two different errors each time I try...
    The first error reported was the unable to connect to the server error.
    "The operation could not be performed because a problem occured while attempting to connect to the server. Please check your connection and try again."
    or
    "Configure Site Error. An FTP error occurred. A test file could not be copied to the specified Host Directory. Your FTP user may not have sufficient permissions to access the folder and/or its content."
    I am 100% certain there is no problem on the server with insufficient disk space or file permissions, so this is an incorrect error message being reported by InContext Editing. I can connect to the site and make and save changes with Dreamweaver with the identical FTP settings. This site is on a server at GoDaddy that has plenty of disk space and I can see that all the permissions on site folders are set correctly.
    At this point I have a very frustrated client who is anxious to edit web pages but cannot.

  • Error: Insufficient Disk Space (but my HD has plenty of space)

    I am getting the following message when trying to import my vacation photos from SD card to Aperture.
    "Insufficient Disk Space
    There is not enough free space on your Aperture Library volume to import the selected items. It is estimated that you need at least 447MB of additional free space."
    Does anyone know what this means?
    I have plenty of room on my HD. How do I add to my Aperture Library volume?
    Just looked and my Aperture Libary is 53.77 GB.

    Please advise your hardware and workflow info in some detail. Specific Mac, RAM, hard drives or SSDs, where the Library is located, how full (in %) each hard drive is, OS/app versions, etc. so we can help you to troubleshoot your problem.
    Folks have lots of good reasons for not upgrading OS or app versions. Personally I try to always delay updating versions, and did not go to Lion until 10.7.4. However if you are still on 10.7.1 like it says in your sig I do suggest that you seriously consider upgrading to a newer version of the OS.
    Given that you are currently having problems I do recommend that you report the full hdw/sw/workflow info here before doing anything dramatic like upgrading the OS. Any suggestions that we make while ignorant of your full info may lead in the wrong direction.
    Thanks.

  • Insufficient disk space when rendering for print to video

    We have a new hard drive (1.5 terabytes) with one project and when printing to video, the "insufficient disk space" window appears and remove rendered files dialog box ahows.  167 mb of rendered files which could not be removed. 
    What is the solution to get files removed or space created to export to video?
    Thank you

    Where is the project? Please post a screenshot of your event and project library.

  • Insufficient disk space when opening Aperture library in iPhoto

    I just created a fresh library with 3000 photos (6GB) in Aperture. I then tried to open that library using iPhoto by holding down the Option key on launch but got an alert: "Insufficient Disk Space: There is not enough free space on the disk that contains this library to upgrade it. It is estimated that you need at least 6GB of free space."
    OK, I only have 4GB of free space on my HD. But why would iPhoto need to upgrade the library to begin with? I'm using the latest version of both Aperture (3.5.1) and iPhoto (9.5.1) and I thought they use the exact same library. And even if iPhoto needs to upgrade the library, why would it need an extra 6GB when the Aperture library is only 6GB? If opening the library in iPhoto results in increasing the library size from 6GB to 12GB, I'd rather not do it. Am I missing something?

    iPhoto and Aperture are using the same library, but Aperture has preference settings, that prevent previews or faces from being created. If you open an Aperture library in iPhoto, the library size may increase, since iPhoto may be creating files, that Aperture did not create.  Probably iPhoto's estimated was too pessimistic, but opening an Aperture library can increase the library size.
    But photograhis is right. You should not be running any applications at all, if you do not have at least 20GBof free disk space.

  • Render error: insufficient disk space

    I have a scratch drive which FCP shows having 100gb.. and I am trying to render 5 seconds of video and it's giving me this error!!
    Is there some place I am not seeing where render files are limited to a certain size?? I doubt this, because I even opened the render manager and removed a 2gb render file and I still get this error.

    Of course you have verified the location FCP is sending render files?
    You checked this and reset it to make doubly sure?
    If not, do so.
    If you did, TRASH your FCP preference files using FCP Attic and reset the scratch render disk target.

  • Render Error: Insufficient Disk Space??? Not True!

    hi guys.
    what's this?
    i've never come across it. and i've got plenty of disk space on my drive. even deleted most of the rendered files. nothing helps, though. the same message keeps popping up.
    how do i deal with this?

    Did you reset the scratch disk - if not, trashing the prefs will result in your renders being placed on your boot drive. Not a good choice...
