Insufficient space for a movie

My iPad is telling me there is insufficient space for me to download a movie but I just bought more data so I know there is enough! Any ideas as to why it is doing this?

You cannot buy more memory for your ipad at all.
I am guessing that you purchased icloud storage, which has nothing at all to do with the storage capacity of your ipad.
You need to delete some content from the ipad to make more room.

  • GC Warning: Insufficient space for /proc read

    Hello,
    I have a shared library that uses gcj functionality.
    I'm getting the following warning message:
    "GC Warning: Insufficient space for /proc read"
    In a call to JvAttachCurrentThread() inside the shared library.
    And latter my library crash with 'Segmentation fault' when I try to use a java functionality.
    The warning message and the 'Segmentation fault' are not at the same time and may be a coincidence.
    I could not reproduce the error in a small "Hello World" program, so I think it has some thing to do with my application.
    But this only happens in solaris, when I compile and run my application in Linux, it does not happen.
    Scenario that works:
    Linux
    Application compiled with gcc-3.3.3
    Shared library compiled with gcc-3.3.3
    Scenario that does not work:
    Solaris 8
    Application compiled with Forte/SunCC 8
    Shared library compiled with gcc-3.3.3
    Only the shared library uses gcj functionality, the application is only C++.
    What is this warning message about ?

    I'm seeking recommendations for the actual size of a scratch disk. I've been searching over 100 posts before finding the information I was looking for here! Great. Patience is a virtue after all.
    On this post it says an hour of video makes about a 13.5 BG files SO -- would that be a good size for the scratch disk, more of less, 'cause I want to make a 45-minute edited video.
    One post indicated it might be a good idea to have a sequence of scratch disk, i.e. to set of maybe one scratch disk at 20GBs and then another at 20 GBs, etc. rather than have one big 200GB scratch disk?
    Any information or ideas helpful. I've been upgrade hardware and software and ready to finally dive in to all this cool stuff. (Note: The manual had no actual size recommendation, but I'm gonna check out other online sources right now). Thanks.

  • Error message: insufficient space for update; update is 14mb, space available is 2gb. ?

    Most recent update downloads but does not install. There is enough space unless I'm looking at this the wrong way.

    Firefox is installed to the system folder. Please check to see that there about 20-40mb of free space for update.

  • Storage space for downloading movies. Please help!

    I'm trying to download 3 disney movies to my ipad and upgraded my storage plan to 20GB. I currently have one movie downloaded. In the settings, It says that I have 20.4 GB available, but when I try to download a movie, it says I don't have enough available storage? Please help!!

    iCloud storage has no effect on your iPad's physical storage, which cannot be increased.
    You need to delete stuff of your iPad to make room for the movie.
    Buying iCloud storage will not change this.

  • Space for HD Movie

    How much space would a regular iTunes HD movie use up in apple tv?

    But all other videos (other than HD rentals) are encoded so that they will work with the ipod/iphone and are capped at around 1.7 Mbps, HD rentals don't have that restriction and so the person encoding them is able (if they want-not that I know they do, but I would) to increase the bitrate for higher quality on shorter movies.

  • Insufficient space for importing TM backup with migration assistant

    First of all this is not for my main Mountain Lion installation on my Mac Pro, it is on a VM Ware Fusion virtual Mountain Lion installation that is running on my Mac Pro also running Mountain Lion. So this is really more a question dealing with VM Ware Fusion (or Parallels since I have the same issue with that as well) vs. a problem with Mountain Lion. Confused yet? I sure am....
    I am trying to import a time machine backup of my previous Snow Leopard drive into my virtual machine. I did not want to import this into my new drive because I am starting fresh and trying to clean up and Snow Leopard had 10 years worth of crus I am trying to get rid of, but I would still like to have my old SL drive running within VM Ware to help with the transition. I have a Mac Pro with a dual monitor set up so I want it to run in my second monitor and very slowly over the next few weeks get all the files I want and need instead of just importing a bunch of useless crap. 
    Anyway, here is the problem I am having and cannot seem to get past this hurdle. When I open migration assistant inside VM Ware ML  and choose my time machine backup of snow leopard everything works fine until it finishes calculating the size. I deselected all the files and folder I possibly can which leaves 209GB. Even with every single folder deselcted it still give an insufficient storage error I have already resized the VMware drive to 400GB which is more than enough. In my real machine under Finder>Get Info it shows it as 400GB, but within the virtual machine it is only showing the Mac HD to be 40GB which won't allow migration assistant to import the backup due to insuffient storage.
    I have a Mac Pro with tons of disk space so I have plenty of free space to allocate but I have tried everything I can think of but came up blank. Sorry if my explanation was overly verbose or confusing but I wanted to give as much detail as possible. Haven't really fiddled with the settings in VM Ware in a while so I must be missing something.
    So, how do you import files showing as larger than 40GB from a time machine backup with migration assistant without getting an error that there is not enough remaining space? And again, I have already resized the disk to 400GB that shows as 400GB on my real machine but only as 40GB inside the VM Ware Mac HD. I also have Parallels if that is easier to do what I am trying to accomplish.

    I just solved the problem! And this is actually a pretty big deal because experts at the VM Ware Fusion website and many other forums told me it was impossible.
    So here is the guide to running Mountain Lion in VM Ware Fusion or Parallels with a partition larger than 40GB and allows you to import an old user account from Tiger, Snow Leopard, Lion, etc..
    1) Make sure to shut down Mountain Lion in VM
    2) Under VM settings expand hard drive to whatever size you like
    3) You will need either a disk image or an actual DVD of mountain lion, mount that in your VM and choose it as start up. After rebooting open disk utility and partition Mac HD. Instead of only showing the 40GB limit it shold now show the size you created from step 2. Close disk utility and install Mountain Lion as normal. Reboot and unmount disk image.
    4) You now have a virtual Mountain Lion with whatever hard disk size you chose.
    5) Open migration assistant and do your time machine back up as normal from previous systems.
    The reason you might want to do this are many. In my case I wanted to have my old Snow Leopard user account open and running on my second monitor since I just did a fresh install on my Mac Pro. It is easy to import audio, photos, videos but there was a lot of other things I want to take my time bringinging over. There are also many cases where I needed to open up an app and view settings. Now I have my old machine essentially running at the same time as my new install side by side which is fantastic.

  • Need to maintain space for DVD movies.

    Hello Everybody,
    I have a collection of DVD movies and would like to store the best movies in my computer but since they take up large space I am looking for a good DVD ripper. I know there are many available but would like to take your advice in getting a good one.
    Hope you all would provide your suggestions.

    Reginald.
    We cannot possibly comment on rippers in these forums, as it is all technically illegal - if there is any form of Copy Protection applied, it is forbidden to do this, stupid as it may seem.
    There may or may not be a
    i sly
    piece of
    i soft
    ware that could help you though - if what you want to do is simply make a backup of
    i AnyDVD
    that you own.

    Hey veo1,
    I found the following information about that error message:
    These messages occur if permissions are incorrect on your designated music folder or on a folder inside your designated music folder. Permissions are settings that determine who can read, write to, or execute a file or folder on your computer. Every file and folder on your hard disk has an associated set of permissions.

  • Not Enough space for a movie to download

    I have recently tried to download a movie form iTunes store that I have rented. Unfortunately after 5 gb it stops downloading.
    I have cleared up some space but still it cannot be downloaded. I have  now about 9 GB of free space. The film weights 6 GB. The iTunes app tries to download it constantly. I have restarted the ipad, still no luck. Please help! I cannot even stop downloading that film! The pause button won't work.

    i have the same problem.. at least its not only me then.

  • HT3231 insufficient space for full migration

    Hi all,
    Ive just changed from an iMac to an Air and trying to use migration assistant. My problem is that the iMac has a 1TB drive and the Air is only 128GB.
    Can I use an external HDD to add more storage to the Air for the migration so that I can get everything off in one go?
    Thanks

    I think you need to add the external drive to the iMac and move all of your media files on to that first. You applications and the OS should easily fit inside 128GB.
    Then use migration assistant for the whatever is left on your iMac boot drive and plug the external HDD into the MacBook Air to access everything that is on there.
    You can't specify with migration assistant where to put different files, so just plugging the external drive into the Air first isn't going to help.

  • How do I re-download a movie I purchased but had to remove temporarily to make space for other movies?

    Ok so I think I have most of the kinks worked out in how iOS 5 works for me. But I am having one problem. I have more movies than I can put on my iPad 2 (64gb) at once. So i deleted some movies from it in order to make room for some new purchases. However, now when I want to get them back on, I can't figure out how without, resyncing it with my computer. What if I only owned the iPad and didn't have the movies anywhere else?  I have figure out how to get music and tv shows I have previously purchased, but can't for the life of me figure out how to get back a movie I alredy purchased.
    Anyone have an anwer?

    Oh by the way. Goflex makes a wireless hard drive, the GoFlex Satalite, that you can use with your iPad. It's got 500 FB storage and can stream to 3 devices at once. Even android devices.

  • I don't have enough space for my movie.but it shoes i have it on the list..so how to i take it off, i don't have enough space for my movie.but it shoes i have it on the list..so how to i take it off

    i really need help

    If you were manually managing your iPhone then yes, you need to manually transfer your apps. If you were regularly syncing and arranging your apps on your computer (which is easier) then yes a sync will not disturb anything. You do have to go to file and transfer apps and music if you are not autosyncing. Perhaps you should take the time to read the manual.
    Where did I say that "Apple products don't have issues and don't crash..." Please point this out to me. My phone has had to be reset, I've had to turn it off and back on to resynch with the GSM network (this predates my iPhones, had to do the same thing with my Treo), I've had issues with other products and versions of the phone.
    But in your case you stated that your computer did not match your phone and I've seen this happen before. I do say that some people don't take responsibility for their own actions and want to blame others. So gut it out, download your apps again if you lost any (doesn't cost anything) clean up and sync and then keep things that way. It will make you happier and more content.
    Or sell you iPhone and buy a smartphone that has no issues. I find it hard to believe any reasonable person would continue to use a smartphone that they find is "buggy as **". This just doesn't make any sense.

  • Insufficient space for upgrade - IPS4345

    Greetings,
    I am attempting to upgrade the code on my Cisco IPS4345 (IPS-4345-K9 running OS version 2.6.29.1 code 7.1(4) and 7.1(6)). However, I am receiving an error similar to "The update requires xxxx KB in /usr/cids/idsRoot/var, there are only xxxx KB available after pmz cleanup."
    On another form I found someone having a similar issue and it was suggested to perform the following commands. However, these commands are not accepted on my appliances (neither 7.1.4 or 7.1.6).
    #rm -rf /usr/cids/idsRoot/var/updates/files/S69
    #rm -rf /usr/cids/idsRoot/var/updates/files/common
    #rm /usr/cids/idsRoot/var/virtualSensor/*
    #rm /usr/cids/idsRoot/var/.tmp/*
    Any suggestions?

  • Not enought space for iPod movies

    Hi, I just bought an 80GB iPod video. I'm operating off of an 80G laptop. I have a lot of videos on my computer that I have transferred onto the iPod, but now, in order to free up some space on my laptop, I want to delete them off of my computer and just keep them on the iPod, but everytime I plug in my iPod to put on new content, it syncs with my computer and takes off the existing videos. My question is: can i keep this content on my iPod while taking it off my computer and still be able to plug it in and get newly up dated content such as podcasts and new music/videos???

    how do i change it manually update? and does that mean that from now on i any new content i want to add to my iPod will have to be done manually?

  • I used to be able to burn photos onto a CD-R disc. Now I insert a new, blank disc and am told there is insufficient spac available for my selected year of photos. Even when reducing the date to ONE photo, I still get the same message. Confused.

    I used to be able to burn a selection of photos from my iPhoto library onto a CD-R disc. Today I inserted a new blank disc and was shown a message that there was insufficient space for my chosen year of photos. Even when I reduced the date to include only ONE photo!- the message was the same. I am at a loss as to why, and what to do. My iMac is about 7 years old and upgraded to Snow leopard. Any bright ideas?

    When burning a CD-R, the OS first creates a 'shadow' disk image that replicates what the CD will look like, then it copies that data to the CD-R itself. Therefore you need enough free space on your internal drive to create this temporary image. If your internal hard drive is full you won't be able to create the shadow, and that could be what you're seeing.
    If the OP's disk is too full to permit the creation of a 700MB disk image, it's a wonder that the computer is functioning.
