Install needs 12g.  You have 950g.  You do not have enough room.

So I upgraded my Vista computer to Windows 7 and in the wipe-out process moved Windows from my C drive to the D drive, since D was smaller.  I thought: I'll put the system on the smaller partition and keep the big partition for all my software.
So, I have a 1TB drive.  The Windows system is on the D: partition that is 16g.  The other partition, C:, where my programs are to be installed is 916g.  As a result of the upgrade process, of course, I now have to reinstall all my software.  Up to the "Adobe point" all has gone well and everything works.
But now I'm trying CS4 Master Collection (which I had on the computer *before* the W7 upgrade).  I put in the install disk, the CD churns.  It asks for my serial number, then the number for my old CS3 that I'm upgrading from.  So far so good.
Then it asks:  "Where do you want to install it?  Should I put it in D:\ProgramFiles\Adobe? or do you want a new location?"
Of course, I want a new location so I point the installer to C:\Adobe...
Off to the right is a little box that says (and I'm making up the numbers, but you'll get the idea):  Available space: 950g, Space required for install 12g.
Good!  I click Install.  An error box appears:
"You do not have enough room to install the software.  Install will now exit."
...wait...what?  It needs 12g of space and I have 950g....and that means there's *NOT* enough room?
Clues?

You gain NOTHING by partioning a drive and installing the programs on a separate partition. Additionally, 16 gigs for system drive is insanely small.
I have a one TB drive and the system partition is 150 gigs. It is where Windows and all programs are installed.
The error could be better worded but the point is you don't have enough room on the system drive.
This is not an Adobe issue. Had you installed CS4 first you might have gotten away with it until you tried installing something else.
Your system, as currently configured is a disaster waiting to happen. I suggest you rething the way you have that system configured since all Windows programs require space on the system drive for temp install files as well as permanent system files.

    The iPod requires more than twice the file downlooad size in order to downoad and install an app.  You need to free up storage space as the mesage says.

  • HT4859 Help! What do I do if my IPad says that it cannot back up because my icloud storage doesn't have enough room.  It directs me to either cancel or go to settings but the screen locked so I can't do either.  Deleted photos/ videos already.

    Help! What do I do if my IPad says that it cannot back up because my iCloud storage doesn't have enough room.  It directs me to either "Cancel" or go to "Settings" but the screen is frozen and it won't let me do either.  I have removed a lot of pictures and video that I had downloaded.  Then tried to reconnect it to the computer to see if another attempt would prompt a back up with less need, but that did not help.
    Does anyone have any quick fix ideas?
    Thanks.

    Reset it by holding the power and home buttons at the same time until you see the Apple logo, then release.

  • My iPod doesn't have enough room but I don't have much on it. It's the generation 4 itouch

    It keeps on saying j don't have enough room but it's brand new and I don't have much on it. I know it needs a System update is tht the only prob

    Connect the iPod to your computer and click on the iPod underDevices in iTunes.  At the bottom if the screen they should be a color coded bar showing the usage of the storage on the iPod. Report back on the usages by categories.
    Could it be that iTunes is elling you that the computer does not have enough free disk space?
    When are you getting the message and what is the exact wording of the message?

  • Itunes is copying/converting 500gb of music from .wma to .m4a files that are on an external drive onto my laptop which doesnt have enough room. how do i reroute these newly converted files somewhere with enough space for them?

    itunes is copying/converting 500gb of music from .wma to .m4a files that are on an external drive onto my laptop which doesnt have enough room. how do i reroute these newly converted files somewhere with enough space for them?
    new to itunes, used windows media player before that and always ripped music directly to an external hardrive and accessed it through the player. now that i downloaded itunes it is taking from the external hardrive and copying a second file for each song onto my lap top hard drive which does not have the capacity for all my music. as itunes converts music files i want them saved back onto my external drive or another location i have space for rather than the lap top. how do i change the setting to move the itunes media folder to another location. assuming that hitting copy and past and dropping it in a random location will cause a few errors.

    When I have done this, all I did was network the two machines and copy the contents of the iTunes folder to the other machine, and that's it.
    My understanding (which may not be 100% correct) is that the one file that is absolutely necessary is iTunes Library, and that the XML file is actually a copy auto-generated from the iTunes Library, appearing in a different format only for non-iTunes apps that take advantage of the iTunes Library data.
    As far as I know, if you simply have the Library (database) file and all your original music files, iTunes on that computer should operate as it did on your old computer. I believe that the Album Artwork, Genius Data, and XML files can be regenerated from the Library file. Not sure about the Extras file.

    You probably have run out of space, I would delete (or move to an external drive) things that aren't being used as much.

  • Everytime I go to save my movie or export it a message comes up saying I dont have enough room and to close my project and reopen it, will I lose all of my work if I do what it says? how do I resolve this?

    everytime I go to save my movie or export it a message comes up saying I dont have enough room and to close my project and reopen it, will I lose all of my work if I do what it says? how do I resolve this?

    I've never have this problem before, but if you are really worried you can go to finder -> Movies -> iMovie Project.
    And then you can copy that project and put it in your desktop first. If you really did lost your project, you can still put it back. It will play perfectly if your events aren't damaged

  • Do I have enough Room for Pro?

    I own a Macbook that already has Logic Pro on it. It says i have 51.9 gigs available, do i have enough room for Final Cut Pro?

    Absolutely. FCP and the other ProApps only take up a few gigs. It is all the OTHER stuff, the audio samples from Soundtrack Pro and the Motion Content that takes up all the space. Either don't install them, or install them on an external drive.

  • I have 25 G.B. but I can't download it says I don't have enough room and that I have to get rid of other stuff.

    I have and bought 25G.B. on my iPad but when I want to download something it says I don't have enough room what gives??

    As it happens, Apple does make a device to reading SD cards on an iPad, but its use is limited to copying photos and movies from camera memory cards. It is bundled with a similarly limited USB adapter; the two together are marketed as the Camera Connection Kit.
    There are also third-party devices that store music, videos, and the like loaded from a Mac or PC and provide a small wifi network to which an iPad can connect to access the contents.

  • Installing/Upgrade Apps - You do not have sufficient privileges

    I migrated from a Powerbook to a Macbook Pro about a month ago and have attempted to upgrade some apps since (OmniGraffle Pro, etc.). Every time I attempt this operation, I get the following message:
    The operation cannot be completed because you do not have sufficient privileges for some of the items.
    I am the admin and I have changed my App folder, Library, etc. so that the Owner is my shortname. And they are all read-write. The only folder (and it's enclosed items) that I couldn't change was the System folder.
    I can change the System folder so that the Owner = shortname. But I cannot Apply to Enclosed Items. I get the same message:
    The operation cannot be completed because you do not have sufficient privileges for some of the items.
    Any ideas before I go to the Genius Bar?

    Welcome to Apple Discussions!
    Sounds like part of the problem is the Applications folder ownership. That should be different. Go to Applications -> Utilities -> Disk Utility, and have it repair permissions.
    That should fix it so you can install software again.
    Individual applications you can't upgrade should be reinstalled from their original source disk/download off the internet first, because they are probably PowerPC versions that aren't easily migrated to Intel. See my user tip I made with Kappy about migrating from PowerPC to Intel. Using the migration assistant going from one to the other doesn't always work right. The tip is here:

  • HT201317 I want to change the location of my photo stream photos from the default location.  How can I do that?  I don't have enough room on my C drive.

    I can't figure out how to change this.    I have an older PC laptop that barely has enough space to operate with itunes on it.  I have most everything on an external hard drive and would like to move the photo stream folder there. 

    Do you mean on your Time Machine backup drive? Or are you actually accessing the backup? In either case you shouldn't be doing that. If you haven't space on your HDD to store the iTunes Library, then at least put it on another external drive.
    Since you did not provide any information about what's actually "on my time machine," here's what you would do. The entire iTunes folder should be stored in the /Home/Music/ folder. Within that folder you would have three folders: imm Media, iTunes, and iTunes Playlists.
