InDesign is running low on disk space error

Has anyone come across an error message that pops up in IDD CS5 that informs you "Adobe InDesign is running low on disk space. Please delete unnecessary files to free up more disk space, and then restart InDesign"?
I'm working on a brand new machine that has 8gb of RAM and a 500gb HD and am nowhere near utilizing either my available RAM or HD so what gives?
Thanks!

Hi Steve,
I wasn't actually the user who was having the trouble. She had to restart
IDD because the program froze up on her. She hasn't gone back into yet to
see if the problem reoccurs but I'll keep track and will certainly reach out
if it happens again! Thanks!

Lightroom 4.3 Incorrectly gives 'critically low on disk space' errors

Lightroom 4.3 today started popping up random 'critically low on disk space' errors for the drive housing the catalog file.
The drive in question has over 500GB free. There are no errors in Windows logs showing that OS is throwing these errors.
Very frustrating to have this error pop up every couple of minutes.
Has anyone else run into this issue, and if so, found a fix?
-Daniel

I have the same issue with LR4.3. The catalog is on a disk that currently has 283 GB free out of 698 GB total.
Occassionally I get the out of space message:
Ad additional problem I am having is that when I click to IMPORT photos, the Import panel is excrutiatingly slow. Windows occassionally thinks that the program has crashed after I do something like start typing keywords to assign to the images about to be imported. The slowness occurs before any actual import is ordered or even an import source is selected.
I don't know if these problems are related, but they are both very annoying!

Running out of disk space error even tho I have 200GB free!!

Dear users,
I have a huge problem. I have dowloaded an application from the AppStore named "Virtual City" and once I try to play the game it crashes saying "Running out of disk space" even tho I have more than 200GB free on my hard disk.
I am using a MacBook Pro Mid April 2010 with Lion latest version.
What could be the problem??
Thanks in advance.
A.

Did you try to reset your phone by holding the sleep and home button until the Apple logo comes back again?
Do you have an "other" section on your phone, bigger than 1GB? If yes, try to restore the phone to bring it back to normal size, it might contain corrupt data from an unsuccessful sync.

You are running out of disk space error message

Bridge Freezing after Caching Photo Shoots - Says Running Low on Disk Space & To Purge Cache

Hello,
I'm working in Bridge CS5 on a Mac 0S X version 10.9.2. I have 12 GB of RAM and the server has 240 TB capacity, 76.69 available.
Recently I've received the following error message while processing large photo shoots with both DNG and JPEG files: Bridge is running low on memory. It is recommended that Bridge is restarted.
I have also been manually caching large photo shoots and my cache preferences were set to Keep 100% Preview In Cache and Automatically Export Cache To Folder When Possible. My cache size was set to 500,000. Yesterday, Bridge started to freeze while attempting to open folders. The wheel would spin at the bottom with the message Compiling Criteria. The only way to close Bridge was a Force Quit. This happened several times.
Today, image thumbnails will no longer display, only the DNG/JPEG icons. I received the following error message:
I have tried restarting Bridge while holding the alt/Option key to reset the preferences and checking all three boxes - no luck. I have done the same thing with the boxes unchecked - no luck. I have tried manually purging the cache from its location in the library - no luck. I have tried resetting the cache preferences from the toolbar - no luck. I have tried deleting the cache files from the folders - nothing. happens, I have tried purging the cache for each folder from the tool bar - nothing happens.
I need to restore the thumbnails and rebuild the cache for each folder. Does anybody have an idea what is wrong or how to help?
Many Thanks!

Running low on disk space...

My G4 main hard drive is down to a few GB. I have plenty of space on another internal and several external drives. I noticed my Library is about 37 GB. Are there any files (besides what is in the App folder)that can be moved or deleted to make more space on my main hard drive?
Thanks advance to anyone that can help with this,
Craig

Hi Craig!
Insufficient available space, can cause performance issues, system corruption, and possible loss of data.
Depending on Mac system usage habits, it is a general recommendation, to keep 10% to as much as 20%, of the Total capacity, available at all times.
Review the suggestions, in the documents that I have linked to below.
Authored by Dr Smoke:
Problems From Insufficient RAM And Free Hard Disk Space
Freeing Space On Your Mac OS X Startup Disk
Mac OS X 10.3/10.4: System Maintenance, authored by Gulliver
Maintaining Mac OS X, authored by Dr Smoke
Is the Mac shutdown overnight, or does it run 24/7?
Have you ever run any routine Maintenance procedures?
If you turn the PowerBook off nightly, the Background Maintenance Tasks, are never run.
These can also be run, using a Third-Party utility, or manually using Terminal, to run the CRON Commands.
I use MacJanitor, when necessary.
INSTRUCTIONS TO RUN CRON MANUAL COMMANDS
Quit all applications/programs.
Navigate to HD > Applications > Utilities.
Double click on Terminal, to open.
At the prompt, type:
sudo periodic daily
Press Return.
Enter your Admin password when prompted, then press Return.
This will execute the daily script that is sheduled to run every night.
When completed, repeat this procedure, but change the command to:
sudo periodic weekly
This one rebuilds a database or two, and usually takes somewhat longer to complete. It is scheduled to run once a week.
Repeat again, with command:
sudo periodic monthly
Or they can all be run in one pass, which is preferable, with this command:
sudo periodic daily weekly monthly
When the tasks complete, and return to the prompt, you may quit Terminal.
Restart the Mac, and run Repair Permissions.
TO REPAIR PERMISSIONS ON THE STARTUP DISK
1.Open Disk Utility, located in Applications/Utilities, and select the startup disk in the left column.
2.Click First Aid.
3.Click Verify Disk Permissions to test permissions or Repair Disk Permissions to test and repair permissions. (I never "Verify". Just run "Repair".)
When "Repair Permissions" is complete. Quit "Disk Utility".

Exchange 2010 running low on disk space

Hi, I have a Exchange Server 2010 and its only got around 950MB free on it. I have asked users to delete items and i have personally archived mail by moving it into data files that are not stored in the database. In total I have moved around 15GB and the
mailbox database is still the same size?? I can see the mail backing up in the queues and am getting the 431 4.3.1 mailbox disk is full error message. Can anyone provide any suggestions? I have cleared as much space as I can. thanks

Exchange doesn't decrease the size of edb file itself eventhough you do house keeping in mailboxes. It will just mark that space in the database as white space and will utilize it when new data comes in...
Do you have any other drive with the space? To decrease the size you need to run the offline defragmentation but for that also you need to have 110% of space but that can be another drive on the same server or it could be network path. Also you need to dismount
the database during this operation. Check more details about offline defrag in below article on how to perform it...
How to Defrag an Exchange 2010 Mailbox Database
Also do you have indexing enabled for the database? If so, you can disable it and delete the indexing database (located with GUID folder name where your database is located) that would give you some room on the drive depending on size of the indexing database.

MacBook running low on disk space

I have a 2008 MacBook 13" and have a ton of photos, movies, songs, etc. saved directly to the laptop. I am starting to run out od hard drive space but the laptop is still in good working order. Is there a way to transfer all of this to an external hard drive to free up space on the computer?

Your welcome also when you're replying please click "Reply" in the post you are replying to, that way we can tell who your communication is directed to.
Finally if you would like some suggestions on high quality EHD's I'd recommend any of the following:
G-Tech G-DRIVE series, OWC Mercury Elite Pro series or LaCie d2 Quadra series.
Personally I use the LaCie's (I've got 4 total) however OWC and G-Tech would also be more than welcome on my desk.

Hard Drive low on disk space - What is the process of moving B1 Server App?

The partition the SAP B1 Server App is installed on is running low on disk space. I would like to move the APP from the D:\ to a new, faster, hard disk we have installed.
What is the process for uninstalling and reinstalling the server app to a new partition.
Is there any documentation that outlines this process?
What are concerns I should have for doing this?
Any and all info is appreciated.
John Sefton

Fine. Then Backup the Client Database from SQL Server Management Studio.
Backup the B1_SHR folder from the SAP Server.
Now uninstall SAP B1 from the Server.
Restart the Server and do a Fresh Installation of SAP B1.
Apply for New License Key. Install the License Key after you get from SAP portal.
Upgrade to the Patch similar to that of the Backuped Client DB Patch.
Now create a new company in SAP B1.
Restore the DB which was backed up.
NOTE: I suggest these operations to be done by experienced guys. If you are a SBO Customer, then I recommend you to ask your Implementation Partner to do this exercise.

Low on Disk Space D:

Hard drive says I have more than 300 GB available with a 500 gb capacity. Yet I get "Low Disk Space" error messages when I do anything.

Hard drive says I have more than 300 GB available with a 500 gb capacity. Yet I get "Low Disk Space" error messages when I do anything.
Attempted solutions:
-I created a new User Account and I can download large files with no issues.
-I ran "Repair Disk Permissions" but still get warnings.
Google Drive Warning:
Spotify Warning:
But on my other user account I can use spotify and download large files, etc.

Back up all data. Don't continue unless you're sure you can restore from a backup, even if you're unable to log in.
This procedure will unlock all your user files (not system files) and reset their ownership and access-control lists to the default. If you've set special values for those attributes on any of your files, they will be reverted. In that case, either stop here, or be prepared to recreate the settings if necessary. Do so only after verifying that those settings didn't cause the problem. If none of this is meaningful to you, you don't need to worry about it.
Step 1
If you have more than one user account, and the one in question is not an administrator account, then temporarily promote it to administrator status in the Users & Groups preference pane. To do that, unlock the preference pane using the credentials of an administrator, check the box marked Allow user to administer this computer, then reboot. You can demote the problem account back to standard status when this step has been completed.
Enter the following command in the Terminal window in the same way as before (triple-click, copy, and paste):
{ sudo chflags -R nouchg,nouappnd ~ $TMPDIR.. ; sudo chown -R $UID:staff ~ $_ ; sudo chmod -R u+rwX ~ $_ ; chmod -R -N ~ $_ ; } 2> /dev/null
This time you'll be prompted for your login password, which won't be displayed when you type it. You may get a one-time warning to be careful. If you don’t have a login password, you’ll need to set one before you can run the command. If you see a message that your username "is not in the sudoers file," then you're not logged in as an administrator.
The command will take a noticeable amount of time to run. Wait for a new line ending in a dollar sign (“$”) to appear, then quit Terminal.
Step 2 (optional)
Take this step only if you have trouble with Step 1 or if it doesn't solve the problem.
Boot into Recovery. When the OS X Utilities screen appears, select
Utilities ▹ Terminal
from the menu bar. A Terminal window will open.
In the Terminal window, type this:
res
Press the tab key. The partial command you typed will automatically be completed to this:
resetpassword
Press return. A Reset Password window will open. You’re not going to reset a password.
Select your boot volume ("Macintosh HD," unless you gave it a different name) if not already selected.
Select your username from the menu labeled Select the user account if not already selected.
Under Reset Home Directory Permissions and ACLs, click the Reset button.
Select
 ▹ Restart
from the menu bar.

LMS 3.2 server - low disk space error.. Upm.db increasing rapidly......please help

we r facing problem of low disk space error......upm.db file incresing 1 to 2 gb per week.
if this continues our disk will get full & system may get crashed...... pls help

Probably most space is being consumed by CSCOpx\log. To quickly cleanup some logs, you can manuall run the command:
logrot_trunc c:\Progra~1\CSCOpx\log\syslog.log
Assuming this is the correct path on your server. You can also schedule log rotation to occur on a regular basis to avoid the logs growing past a certain point. This can be scheduled under Common Services > Server > Admin > Log Rotation.
Might also be a good idea to check if you have debugging turned on under the various modules in LMS to decrease the speed of the log growth by setting the logging to a lower level.

Hi, my mac air is really low on disk space, can I remove itunes (which is huge) to an external hard drive to free up space?...and then run it from the hard drive instead of the mac,even if the mac no longer has space to accomodate the size of the library?

Yes.
Copy your music iTunes Library folder to the external drive and change the Advanced settings in iTunes to point to this new location.
Once you're happy with these changes you can delete the same Library from your User account to free up space on the internal drive.
