IPOD error "saving cannot be performed due to lack of space on your device"

I accidentally synched my iPOD touch when I didn't intend to and now when I am trying to save progress inside an App I get the message 'Saving cannot be performed due to a lack of space on your device'.  I only have about 150 songs on it and there are NO photos or videos left on the device.  I have also deleted any unused Apps but still can't get past this message.  Any ideas?

That reference is useful. After resetting my iPod and getting the same result, I finally realized that the problem isn't permissions on the iTunes folder, but on the iPhoto Library. Once I adjusted those, it synced fine. Thanks for your help.

  • Ipod nano says cannot update playlists due to lack of available space

    Recently after I left my ipod nano charging overnight mysteriously all the songs were removed from it (not on my computer - just the ipod unit). Whenever I try to "Update Administrator iPod" it comes up with the message that it doesn't have enough space. This is despite un-checking all playlists to absolute minimum. Now at the stage that even if no playlists are checked > 95% of disk-space is taken.
    A message does pop up at the bottom RHS of my screen that a "file is corrupt and unreadable - iPod_Control/iTunes/iTunesDB" and suggests I run CHKDSK Utility. I don't know much about chkdsk but did go to the "START" button on my computer and in the "RUN" section typed in "CHKDSK c: /f". It did go through a routine (after I did a computer reboot) - but problem is still there.
    Have you any advice for me?

    Beautiful. Just did a "restore" as suggested and now works fine!

  • Getting error message "cannot sign in due to server error"

    Why am I getting error message "cannot sign in due to server error" when I try to sign in to iCloud?

    A software fluke or hiccup perhaps. Try closing the mail app completely, reboot the iPad and see if the message goes away.
    Double tap the home button and you will see apps lined up going left to right across the screen. Swipe to get to the Mail app and then swipe "up" on the app preview thumbnail to close it.
    Reboot the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider if it appears on the screen - let go of the buttons. Let the iPad start up.

  • My iphone 4s is no longer syncing with my computer.  Why? My software on the computer IS the latest version.  Iphone 4 cannot be updated due to lack of storage

    My iphone 4s is no longer syncing with my computer.  Why? My software on the computer IS the latest version.  Iphone 4 cannot be updated due to lack of storage

    What happens when you try to sync? Do you see any error messages? Which software on the computer are you referring to, iTunes? The latest iTunes is 11.1.3. If you cannot update the phone due to lack of storage, you will need to delete some content from the phone.

  • Itunes cannot sync due to lack of space on iphone, but itunes also indicates 8GB free?

    So im trying to sync my phone to itunes, and it clearly says there's 7-8 gb free in the space bar on the itunes iphone window. However whenever i try and sync it tells me I need 500 mb of additional space.
    Anyone come across this problem before?

    I have this exact problem, but with slightly different figures. When I originally tried to install CoPilot (which is about 1.5 Gb) there was about 4 Gb free, but the install continually failed due to lack of space on the iPhone (16 Mb 3G). I had to remove a load of music to get enough space to install.
    Now there's a CoPilot update and with even 3.5Gb available on the phone, I just get that same error and it won't install. I then deleted CoPilot so there was almost 5 Gb free and tried again and I think it is now OK (currently sync'ing, but very slow).
    I don't think this is a CoPilot issue as many users seem to be experiencing similar problems with other apps. I think perhaps it's more likely with CoPilot because it is relatively large. But the fact remains that the iPhone seem to need more than 3 times the size of the app in order to even update it which is truly a PIA and takes a lot of messing about to get around the problem.
    Anyone know of a fix to this? I guess it's really a bug and needs to be reported to iPhone feedback).

  • CoPilot will not upgrade due to lack of space on iPhone

    This issue is occuring on both a 3G and 3Gs phone that we own. I have read on forums outside of here that others are having the same issue. When I origally tried to install CoPilot it told me there was not enough free space to install the 1.3g app. My phone had 5gig free at that time. I uninstalled some videos to free up more space and got it to 11gig free. Still got the same message of not having enough free space. I unplugged the iphone, shut down iTunes and rebooted pc. CoPilot app then installed. After CoPilot installed I resynced movies and all was fine. Same exact thing happened on both phones. Then 2 days later CoPilot came out with an update. I ran into the same issue for the update. My 3g had 9 gig free and iTunes still said it could not install CoPilot for lack of free space. I have looked at the other forums and they say to look at the "other" section of storage on the iPhones, but both of these phones show little memory usage there. My theory is that in the code of CoPilot someone put in an extra digit in the memory requirements and instead of looking for 1.3 gig of free memory it is looking for 13gig of free memory. It is a real big hassle to delete things off of iPhone just to get an app to install.

  • HT1364 Due to lack of space on my c drive I decided to move my music folder to the d drive. After I done this I changed my mind and put the music folder back on the c drive and now my itunes music and playlists etc. are missing. How do I get them back?

    Due to lack of space on my c drive I decided to move my music folder to my d drive. After I done this I noticed all my music was gone from itunes so I decided to move the music folder back to the c drive to try fix the problem. All my music and playlists etc are still missing from itunes. Any suggestions on how to fix this problem???

    A possible cause is a problem with the file places.sqlite that stores the bookmarks and the history.

  • After upgrading to iOS 5, I lost my contacts, calendar entries, and Notes on my iPhone 3GS (3 years old). How do I retrieve them? My last backup/sync to iTunes acct was Sept 18 but yesterday's backup bombed due to lack of space on my C: drive.

    Yikes! After upgrading my iPhone 3GS to iOS 5, I lost my Contacts, calendar entries, and Notes (100+) on my iPhone (3 years old). How do I retrieve them? My last backup/sync to iTunes acct was Sept 18 but yesterday's backup bombed due to lack of space on my C: drive.

    This happened to me too but it was really all there.  Go to your calendar, click on calendar in the upper left hand corner, click on show all calendars, click done in the right upper corner.  Everything should show up!!!
    I was super thrilled.  Hope this works for you!!

    Clear space on your iPhone (go to Settings > General > Usage) and complete the download there.
    If you rented the movie on your iPhone, it can only be viewed on your iPhone.

    Rentals are a one-time only download from the store. If you can't free up enough space on your phone for it then you can try the 'report a problem' link to contact iTunes Support and see if they grant you a redownload for your Mac : http://reportaproblem.apple.com
    If the 'report a problem' link doesn't work then you can try contacting iTunes Support via this page : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/ - click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page, then Purchases, Billing & Redemption

  • Unable to install updates due to lack of space in phone memory

    Hello,
             I am unable to install software updates into my phone due to lack of space in phone memory. Some non movable apps need to be moved to sd card. Give me suggetion.

    @Sekhar1987,
    Unfortunately you can not move apps from phone memory to the SD card without rooting. (rooting will void your warranty)
    Search the forum and you'll find many similar topics.
    Cheers.

  • App won't install due to lack of space - with enough space on the phone

    I try to install the navigation TomTom western Europe with size 1,6 gb. ITunes and phone says that I have 2,7GB free, but it refuse to install due to lack of space?

    Navigon needs at least 3.3gb to install(Twice the apps size, at a minimum). To make sure you have enough space you should allow no less than 4gb. The space will be freed up once installation is complete.

  • My iPad will not let me download an iTunes movie due to lack of space but I purchased more space and it still won't work

    My iPad will not let me download an iTunes movie due to lack of space but I purchased more space and it still won't work

    As stated above - purchasing more space in iCloud has nothing to do with this. You do not have enough space left on the iPad for the movie to download, you need to delete content on the device itself.
    You may want to transfer purchases to iTunes and then delete some content on the device to make room.
    Transfer purchases.

    This article explains how to delete content from the device

    Do not delete any important content without backing up, transferring purchases or transferring files to your computer.

  • Some songs cannot be played due to "lack of computer's authorisation"

    Hi,
    I've purchased an album from itunes store. But few (only few) songs are unable to be played due to "lack of authorisation of my computer".
    When I try to authorise it, I'm said that the computer is already authorised. The songs are still unable to be played. I tried to unauthorised
    the computer and authorise it again, without any result.When I try to play these songs by player other than itunes, there's silence. Other
    songs from the album play normally. Anyone had something like that? I would be very grateful for help.
