IPad has no more space

Hello, I'm having problems with my iPad, before I use to have 9-12 apps on my iPad, and suddenly after months using it, I had to erase many apps and photos and music because I didn't have space. So, after it told what to erase I did it but I still didn't have space. I have 160 photos,NO music and 3 apps that uses little space. Every time I try add more apps it won't let me but I know I do have space but it won't let me. My brother has 16 Gb just like me and still more photos and apps then me. What do I do??

Check the iPad by selecting it in iTunes. Check the bar graph at the bottom and mouse over the different colored sections to see what is taking up the memory. If Other is over 1-2 GBs you will have to Restore the iPad. Start by Restoring to a back up, if the Other comes back you will have to set it up as new.

I have just imported my photos on my iPad to my mac book. can i now delete them from the iPad to create more space without losing them on the mac book?

i have just imported my photos on my ipad to my new mac book pro. can i now delete them from my ipad to create more space without losing them on my laptop?

Yes you can delete them. Removing them from the iPad has no effect at all on the Mac.

Hhow much goal and free hard disk space is available? Sounds like you need to move some things off of that hard drive.

Error Message: Your mac osx startup disk has no more space available for application memory.

Hi everyone:
I have a 2010 27" imac. Dual Core i3, 3.2 GHz and 8GB of 1333MHz DDR3 RAM, and a 90% empty 500 GB Hard Drive. Running Snow Leopard 10.6.6
I have received a message intermittently since I got the iMac. The Force Quit menu comes up and says "Your mac osx startupdisk has no more space available for application memory". Sometimes there are a few applications open. Sometimes none. Whenever I look in the Activity Monitor Utility I see 2 or 3 gigs of RAM still available for use, and lots of hard drive space.
Im not sure why I'm getting the message, nor what to do to rectify it. Quitting applications, like it suggests doesn't seem to help.
I am grateful for any advice.
Lauren

Hey Lauren.
First of all you do have some software updates you should be doing. 10.6.7 came out a few weeks ago. Sometimes doing all of your software updates resolve issues such as this.
To check for software updates click the Apple and then Software updates.
As this issue is someone broad, I would test one of the articles below to narrow down your issue.

Hard disk has no more space available for application memory

I keep this getting this error after my applications freeze for several minutes.
"Your hard disk has no more space available for application memory."
I have 1 drive with 160 GB and 46 GB available. I'm pretty sure that's plenty of free space. And why does my memory need my drive? I've got 2.5 GB of memory. That should be plenty sufficient to run Safari without needing virtual memory.
Help!

Hello! OSX uses a virtual memory scheme and even though you have a lot of ram it still utilizes the paging file. Panther 10.3.9 and below runs maintenance routines very early in the morning to clear temp files and other stuff. If you don't normally leave it on 24/7 then you may need to consider a utility to clear the temp files and do the routine maintenance. Tiger 10.4+ runs these automatically. I suggest leaving it on all night for a day or so and then restarting and see if the problem clears up. Here's a list of utilities such as Macjanitor.Tom

Process "deskjet" is using up over 1GB of RAM and over 60GB of VRAM after an hour or so of use. ALSO, "Your startup disk has no more space" error.

The blowers will kick on and I get the: "Your mac os x startup disk has no more space available for application memory." with a list of running apps that aren't going over anything abnormal (Chrome, Finder, Activity Monitor). Quitting any of the applications that appear the dialog continues to pop up. Performance doesn't appear to suffer but the computer definitely acts like it's busy with only a few applications open, however force quitting deskjet slows down the blowers (fans).
I have 20GB remaining on my boot drive. I have also lived several months with less than 5GB remaining and have never seen this error from Mac OS X 10 - 10.8. The only thing different between then and now is the boot drive is a SSD.
I focus on the printer drivers because that's something I can't find anywhere else through Google or Discussion searches. The "startup disk" error has some hits that I have yet to go through completely, although initial results show that it may be a vague bug/leak with SSDs.
(Edit: After clearing up another GB or so and 10 minutes of "deskjet" being killed, it's the longest I've gone without the dialog popping up. Although once I restart that driver will go out of control again).
-Less than a month old clean installation of Mountain Lion 10.8.2
-Early 2008 MBP
-SSD bootdrive
-500GB secondary HDD
-4GB RAM
-Permissions have been repaired just yesterday.
-SMC and PRAM reset as well, although it won't hurt to do it again when I get back home.

New MacAir error states "your Mac OSX startup disk has no more space available for application memory" All I have added is MS Office

My new Mac Air states that my " Mac OSX startup disk has no more space available for application memory" and wants to force quit Safari. I have only added MS Office to the computer and Carbonite. Any suggestions?

Select the icon of your startup volume ("Macintosh HD," unless you renamed it) in the Finder and open the Info window. What value is shown for Available (space)?

New comp says startup disc has no more space.

My iMac 2013 desktop is 5 days old. I bought it with Mountain Lion OS X 10.8. It has been giving me a flag when I have more than 5 things open (such as iTunes, Chrome, Photoshop and MS Word) saying "Your Mac OS X startup disk has no more space available for application memory. To avoid problems with your computer, quit any applications you are not using. Closing windows and removing files from your startup disk will also help." I have 1 terrabit of memory. I know I haven't used it all.. What is up?

The message has nothing to do with low disk space. There is excessive swapping of data between physical memory and virtual memory. That can happen for two reasons:
You have a long-running process with a memory leak (i.e., a bug), or
You don't have enough memory installed for your usage pattern.
Tracking down a memory leak can be difficult, and it may come down to a process of elimination.
When you notice the swap activity, open the Activity Monitor application and select All Processes from the menu in the toolbar, if not already selected. Click the heading of the Real Mem column in the process table twice to sort the table with the highest value at the top. If you don't see that column, select
View ▹ Columns ▹ Real Memory
from the menu bar.
If one process (excluding "kernel_task") is using much more memory than all the others, that could be an indication of a leak. A better indication would be a process that continually grabs more and more real memory over time without ever releasing it. Here is an example of how it's done.
The process named "Safari Web Content" renders web pages for Safari and other applications. It uses a lot of memory and may leak if certain Safari extensions or third-party web plugins are installed. Consider it a prime suspect.
Another process often implicated in memory leaks is "inkjet8," which is a component of the HP printing softwre. If it's present, force-quit the process in Activity Monitor to solve the problem temporarily. If you don't use an HP printer, remove the software. Otherwise, if the problem is recurrent, update the software (which may not help) or contact HP support.
If you don't have an obvious memory leak, your options are to install more memory (if possible) or to run fewer programs simultaneously.
The next suggestion is only for users familiar with the shell. For a more precise, but potentially misleading, test, run the following command:
sudo leaks -nocontext -nostacks process | grep total
where process is the name of a process you suspect of leaking memory. Almost every process will leak some memory; the question is how much, and especially how much the leak increases with time. I can’t be more specific. See the leaks(1) man page and the Apple developer documentation for details.

Popup window saying max os x startup disk has no more space

I recently started having a window pop up that says "Your Mac OS X startup disk has no more space available for application memory." Under that it says "To avoid problems with your computer, quit any applications you are not using. Closing windows and removing files from your startup disk will also help." I did have several applications open that weren't being used, so I quit those and closed several windows, and the window stopped popping up. Now it startedup again and I can't get it to stop. What can I do to fix this issue? Thanks

I'm also having this issue. I've just deleted what seemed to be an enormous amount of old pictures, files, videos, etc. The popup is still occuring. Exactly how much free space do I need? I currently have 153 GB out of 319 GB free. Seems like I have more than enough space available.

IMac Memory Issues: "Your Mac OSX Startup Disk Has No More Space Available"

Hi all,
I've done some extensive searching on my issue, and haven't been able to find a solid solution. I was hoping that if I shared my specific problem, it might shed some light on what is going on. My OS is current: 10.8.2 with plenty of HD space (over 250 GB) and 4 GB ram.
Over the past couple of days, my iMac has become very slow and laggy. Most times I will eventually get the message: "Your Mac OSX Startup Disk Has No More Space Available". This is after it has been lagging for quite a while, sometimes several hours.
I will restart, things will be sufficiently fast for a few minutes, but once I start working in any application (including any browser, or adobe software) it starts to slow down until it is eventually to a crawl, with the spinny wheel showing up often, even when only one application is open at a time. It doesn't take more than several minutes to start slowing down. Even simple things like hovering over the dock start to really lag, or opening my applications folder or System Preferences can take upwards of 15-30 seconds, even several minutes sometimes.
Here's some steps I've taken so far:
- Checked the activity monitor and system memory seems fine. No single app takes up more than 7% or so of memory at any given time. 1.65 GB active, 1.64 GB inactive, about 700 MB wired, free about 4 MB. VM size is 247 GB, CPU also seems OK: (%user around 10-20%, %System around 10%, Idle around 70-80%). No single app seems to be taking up an excessive amount of Real Memory.
- Permissions repair (It found some things to fix, but never completely finished, seemed to freeze after several hours, tried it several times)
- Checked disk for repair (no problems found), did the S.M.A.R.T check and ran tests again using Onyx.
- Re-indexed Macintosh HD
- I saw a suggestion to reset the PRAM, so I did that.
I do have the system backed up via Time Machine. Suggestions for further action are very much appreciated!

Ok, thanks. Here's a screenshot from during when it was running to a near halt (took me a while even to take the screenshot):
Here's a second screenshot after restart. All I did was open Chrome to post this:
At this exact moment I have about 500MB of memory free, but I have been watching it slowly count down starting from 2GB free when I first restarted. So far it is running smoothly, but I am guessing that it will start to lag again once the free memory dials down.
In case there is any correlation: I happened to have a strange issue with my internet connection. My router seems to be working fine, and I have wi-fi connected around the house. However, I did have my iMac connected via ethernet cable, and the wired connection was not working (was not finding a DNS address), but when I go to Wi-fi, it works. Again, could be totally unrelated, but it started just before the slowdown.

MAC startup disc has no more space available for application memory.

I have a new mac, very little memory being used, and only a few programs being run...safari, i-tunes, etc. This error window keeps coming up "Your Mac OS X Start up disc has no more space available for application memory. To aviod problems, quit any applications and close windows you are not using. removing files you are not using from your start up disc will help". This window will come up with only finder and safari running, no other applications running. This has been going on for several weeks now off and on. What is causing this and what can I do?

I've had safari, mail and itunes open for a bit this afternoon. Terminal is showing (0) pages in and (0) pages out. I'll continue to keep them open and see what happens and report back if it changes! Here's the rest of the data showing at this time.

"Your Mac OSX startup disk has no more space avaliable for..." error

Last night, a dialog box appeared with the following error (exact quote):
"Your Mac OS X startup disk has no more space available for application memory.
To avoid problems with your computer, quit any applications you are not using. Closing windows and removing files from your startup disk will also help."
The box then had a force quite menu with the option to force quit any applications that were currently open.
I opened activity monitor, and nothing seems to have a CPU % of over 9% on any of the tabs, so I'm not sure what is causing this message to appear and how to fix it. Activity Monitor also says I have 2.07 GB out of 1.88 GB available, so I don't think this is a memory issue either. Help?
Thanks,
-Josh

What's the size of your HDD, and how much space is unused? You can check in /Applications/Utilities/Disk Utility - highlight Macintosh HD and read the figures at bottom right.
If the available space is under about 15-20% of the total capacity, the message is telling you that there isn't enough disc space left for application swap files to be used.

"Your Mac OS X Startup Disk Has No More Space For Application Memory"

I've been having a problem in the last few days with my Mac. I would be surfing the net, or doing whatever, and an error message would randomly pop up on my screen. It would say: "_Your Mac OS X Startup Disk Has No More Space For Application Memory_". Then the dialog box would give me the option to PAUSE or *Force Quit* applications. But instead of letting me click these buttons, my Mac would just automatically freeze after the dialog box popped up!
The odd thing is, is that I truly was NOT using that much memory...much less than I usually do. Plus I have 4 GB of RAM, and I know I wasn't maxing it out.
Does anyone know why this error message would be popping up like this (especially since there was no way that I was using all my Application Memory)? And does anyone know why my Mac just freezes instantly when the error message pops up?
Any help would be GREATLY appreciated! It's quite hard use my Mac right now, since I never know when it's gonna freeze up on me!
Thanks!

I assume that means no backups? That's a problem you need to fix next.
You might be able to start your Mac in "Target Disk Mode" while connected to the other Mac. You do this by holding down the "T" key while booting. And I was wrong: you must use Firewire, not USB.
The other Mac will see your HD as an external F/W drive. You may have to "mount" it via Disk Utility, if it doesn't show up on the desktop and/or Finder sidebar.
You probably need to do a lot of examining what's not needed, and perhaps some maintenance, but you don't want to do that under pressure.
To get it running and buy just a bit of time, your best bet is to copy some big stuff (like video) either to the other Mac's hard drive or to one or more DVDs, then delete it from your HD.
Once you get several GB free, you should be able to boot it. Then get started cleaning it up. There are many threads in this forum with links and suggestions for how to do this. Just search for +Disk Full.+
Did this happen all of a sudden? If so, it's possible you had some sort of runaway or continually failing process, filling up some logs and/or caches. If you don't do routine maintenance, either by clearing your browser cache, etc., manually, or via an app like OnyX, that's another thing you might want to investigate.
