Incorrect Disc Space error

My wife is running on Mac OS X 10.4.9 She installed MathType and is working on a large project with it and Word. We are running into a problem where she can not save any of her work because it says the disc is full, I even reformatted my external hard drive with over 300 GB and we have tried saving to it but it still says the disc is full. We can save work from other programs without restarting or anything and a look at the info for the HD says is has several GB left.

There is apparently a known issue in Word which involves corrupt embedded graphics and which sometimes arises with MathType. See

Disc Space error on Photoshop CS6 Extended install

I am attempting to install Photoshop CS6 Extended (win version) on my Windows 7 ( 64 bit) machine. Core 2 duo CPU @3.16gh with 8 gb or ram.
The machine meets all the minimum requirements and has more than enough disc space.
This is the error I get during initial extraction. "A problem occured while extracting some files. Check available space on your computer and write privileges on the destination folder. "I am the admin, the folder has permissions set correctly.
Also, I tried to read the "installation instructions" found in the CD and am unable to read the file as it says it is corrupted. Anyone else running into this issue?

if that's a problem with your cd, download a trial of ps cs6 and install/activate using your serial number:
if you follow all 7 steps you can dl a trial here: http://prodesigntools.com/adobe-cs6-direct-download-links.html
and activate with your serial.
if you have a problem dl'g, you didn't follow all 7 steps.

We could not complete your purchase (disc space error)

I got this message for a re-download of a game: There is not enough disk space available to install the product.
The size of the game (Bioshock Infinitive) is 40GB, but the point is I have 93GB free disc space.
What can I do to solve this error?
Thank you in advance.
PS: English isn't my mother tongue, hope I didn't make to many misspellings. ;-)

First, the App Store will not allow a download that, when expanded, would leave less than the minimum amount of available space on the startup volume that Apple considers necessary, which is about 9 GB. The download is a compressed archive that will usually expand to about twice its size. Both the archive and the expanded files will be present at the same time, so the actual amount of space needed is about three times the size of the archive.
If you're trying to add a large amount of data all at once, and you get an alert of insufficient space, then from the menu bar, select
 ▹ System Preferences... ▹ Time Machine
If the padlock icon is closed, click it to unlock the settings and authenticate. Turn Time Machine OFF, then back ON and close the preference pane. Restart the computer. Test.

Installation of Portal fails with Disc space error

Hello,
I want to install EP but during setup I get this error:
Check for free disc space in tmp and usr directories for at least 600MG.
So first, what means MG, should this be MB?
On our root filesystem, which includes both directories, I have 25GB space free!!!
Can anyone help me? Regards Manfred

Hi all,
now I'm back to this topic and it seems that Installing Enterprise Portal is a way with some barriers.
-Firstly it seems "600MG" is only wrongly written from SAPINST.
- One Question to Daniel: "the page size of the datavolume", how can this be checked and changed.
- I have verified our free disc space and of course, there's enough.
- I checked the Code of the Analyzer Job and found what's wrong. Inside this, there happens an <i>execution of an Unix command "df -k" for both directories and examining the free space with an "Unix-awk" on that result</i>. But in our case, where we use Logical Volume Groups, we get an empty result, because the displayed Column for the free space is on the next line.<b>I renamed df to d_f and have written a small, new df-script "/bin/d_f -Pl $1 $2" and then the SAP-Installer continues</b> !!!
- Next failure occured during Deploying DQE (especially to com.sapportals.dqe.beans we get a ClassNotFoundException for com.metamatrix.platform.service.api.exception.ServiceException), but after restarting the J2EE-Engine and restarting SapInst it continues.
- Next Error, now blocking:

Has anyone an Idea?

Audio only capture causes "out of disc space" error

When I cature video, no problem. When I capture video and audio, no problem. When I try and capture audio only, it says "insufficient disc space".
I have 96 gigs on my 320 gig external hard drive, and 14gigs left on my 75 gig internal.
Any Ideas?

Check these things before you do anything with your system:
*How is the drive formatted?* If it's FAT32, that's the problem and you will have to reformat the drive as Mac OS Extended to use it with Final Cut Express. But make sure you *back up your files first*, because reformatting erases the entire disk.
*How is the drive connected* - Firewire or USB? If Firewire, are there any other Firewire devices connected, especially a camera. If so, disconnect the camera.
What is the exact make & model of your external hard drive?
Are you using this external hard drive as a *Time Machine backup drive?* If so, you should *turn off* Time Machine before you export to this drive. Actually, you should not use a TM backup drive at all for video projects.

Insufficient disc space error message when there's 100's of gigs available

APERTURE MESSAGE READS: There is not enough free space on your Aperture Library volume to import the selected itmes. It is estimated that you need at least an additional 7036MB of space.
My LaCie Raid reads that it has 858gigs avail and that is the volume where the aplibrary is stored.
Why do I get this message? Is there a in the aperture prefs where a limit has been set? How do I fix this?
Thanks in advance,
Gary

Hiya,
I have just started to get this message too. I have 200GB free on a 1TB Lacie Hard Drive that is only used for Time Machine and also as my primary Aperture Vault.
Formatted in Mac OS Extended Journaled.
I only need to have a few gig free in order to create the new back up...
It has worked fine for months until a couple of days ago.
Any answers anybody?
Cheers Geoff

Error: not enough disc space?

I am trying to export my first project. Even though I have 133G left on my external hard drive I get the (not enough disc space) error. My project is 87 minutes long. Since my external drive has more than enough room, I guess the program is only recognizing my internal drive (which only has 4 gigs left). I have been opening the project and editing it through the external hard drive for quite some time now, so I am a bit confused and frustrated. My capture scratch discs are set to the external drive. I have been trying to figure something out with the media manager, but to be honest, that thing scares the **** out of me. I use FCP 5.0 on a G5 dual 1.8. Using NTSC DVCAM 48K. Is there something I'm missing about using the external drive? Any help would be appreciated!

disk formatting is handled by the Disk Utility application in the /Applications/Utilities folder.
reformatting your disc will ERASE ALL the contained data
... and you DONT want to format as FAT32, rather the opposite. the advice was to check that your disc is formatted as Mac OS Extended, and if not, to format it as such. you can check this by selecting the G-RAID's disc icon in the finder and pressing Cmd-I to open the info window.
Look down to Format, just above Capacity, in the General properties.
no doubt you will receive extra advice to ensure that the drive is not "Journaled" but this is not a big deal

Error backing up a catalog: "low on disc space"

I have problem backing up my catalog in Photoshop Elements 11. I have a new computer and want to move my Potoshop catalog to this one. But when trying to back up on the existing PC, it first says «Please wait while Elements Organizer prepares for backup...». Then after a while I get the following error message: «Your system is low on disc space, and Elements Organizer cannot perform this operation. Try removing some files to free up disk space.»
In trying to back up to a directory on a USB-drive with 847 GB free space. Photoshop says that it will back up «Size: 143 041,10 MB» so there should be plenty of free space. I have no problem copying files to this drive so it is accessible.
Photoshop is installed on the C-drive (18,4 GB free), while my picture files are stored either on C:, on E: (46,6 GB free) or on I: (1,76 GB free).
Any suggestion for how to solve this?

Hi
I'm getting this same issue/ Also Elements 11. Backup was fine a month ago. Just wondering if you found a way to solve this.
I can do an incremental backup just fine but I want to do a full backup, Trying to get this to work to migrate to new laptop in a week or two's time.
I've tried all tips ago, incl re-indexing (which has helped organizer performance significantly)
My Catalog size to be backed up is 418GB (some of my catalog is on C: drive, but most of my videos in the catalog are stored on H: drive)
I have 865GB free on H: dirve, my target disk
I have 93GB of 451GB free on C: drive
System info below.
Many thanks for any advice

Opening attachments - ERROR MSG - 'Not enough memory or disc space'

Hi
I'm trying to open a word .doc from my Entourage email account and it comes up with the error message ' Not enough memory or disc space'. My hard drive has 119 GB free - so I'm thinking it may be a memory issue.
How do I deal with this/clean up my computer??
I just turned my computer on for the day and got this message. The only programs I've got running is Safari, entourage, word and adobe reader.
Thanks.

Have you tried Epson support for that E-Web Print application?
Also, I am curious if Epson installed an add-on for Firefox for that E-Web Print application? ''Thus prompting you to ask about it in the Firefox support forum.''
At this point the best I can offer you is a suggestion to reset your printer prefs in Firefox to see if that will help with that issue.

Blu-ray Error Code 25 Note: Not Enough Hard Disc Space

I'm trying to make a Blu-ray image on my computer and recieving an error that states:
Blu-ray Error
Not enough free storage, "code 25" Note: Not enough Hard disc space
Now I first thought to check my hard drive but I have plently of space. Next I noticed that encore CS3 was trying to make an image that is 340GB in size!!! Why would it do that? My project only has 4 assets. HELP this is going from bad to worse.

My longer notes on this error:
The most common workaround for this is to build to a folder and burn with ImgBurn (for PC) or toast (for Mac).
Searches show that there has not been success in many situations. I do not believe that it is one problem.
I have generally believed that the error refers to temporary storage on the hard drive. And users underestimate the amount of temporary hard disk drive space used. For bluray it is about twice the disk or more.
Some users experience this error when they are creating dual layer BD disks, and a layer is more than 25G. Each video/layer must fit on one side.
And some users successfully burn their disk by re-encoding to a lower bitrate (a 25G BD disk does not hold 25G). Encore uses padding to predict the size on disk (e.g. add 10% to the amount of space it predicts that build will use), and it can be wrong.
Always good to "run as administrator, though I don't know that ever fixed this issue if someone wasn't.
For CS4 there was a required update for a Roxio component. I believed this was a temporary problem due to the combination of Win7 and Encore CS4, but users on newer OS and Encore have reported resolution of problems after installing the patch.

I tried to open an Audacity file. I got the following error message: "Warning there is very little free disc space left on this volume. Please select another temporary directory in your preferences. How do I select another temporary directory?

Audacity > Preferences > Directories. You will probably need to use an external drive as it sounds like you Mac's drive is getting too full???

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

Available disc space is incorrect

I think something is wrong with my MBP (2011, Mac OSX 10.7.5).
It seems to be working ok but I think the available disc space is incorrect.
In the Finder it says '233,65 gb available', in Disk Utility and About This Mac it says '77,47 GB available'. There's no way that I have 233 GB available space because my harddisk (320 GB) is filled with pictures and audio. Why is the Finder saying this? Does this have something to do with the local backups (77+156=233)?
I did not erase any large files, nor did I disable the local backups in the terminal. Can anyone tell me if something is wrong with my harddisk? I rebooted but the number is still the same.

Thanks for your input, Ogelthorpe. I appreciate it!
I do believe though that it has something to do with the local backups. The local backups are 125 GB now, the available disc space according to 'about this mac' has gone up to 107 GB, and finder window says the available disc space is now 232 GB (and again: 125 + 107 = 232).
Today I did not move any files or delete any files, in fact, I did not use my Mac for about 8 hours. So how did the available disc space go up from 77 GB (last night) to 125 GB when I did not delete / change anything?
It might have something to do with the fact that a few days ago I downloaded about 50 GB's, I copied it to an external harddrive and deleted the files from my Mac then. Perhaps 'versions' of those files (about 1,2 GB each) still exist in the local backups.
Although I'm still intrigued by how everything works I decided to l let it go and stop worrying about it. Thanks again.

Weird Issue: External Hard Drive disc space calculation error

Okay I just started having this weird error as far as calculating disc space. I added everything up and it reached 200GB out of 465GB but the bottom reads as no space left at all!
And when I go into the widget it will read 0 but the bar will show space left.
Any help getting this hard drive to read correctly.

Check this user tip I wrote:
http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=122973&tstart=20
Also, what file system is the hard drive formatted in according to Get Info's Format field? Get Info can be gotten by selecting the drive icon on the desktop and going to File menu -> Get Info, or using Command-I (the letter pronounced "eye". Command is the Apple logo key on your keyboard).
Also is boot camp installed?
