It says I only have 313MB of disk space...

Just a month or so ago...I had about 60 or 70 GB left...I have seen it slowly dwindling away and now it is down to 313 MB. *** is going on? I tried calling Apple and they kept on transferring me...we tried a couple of things...nothing worked, they don't know where my memory is going...
HELP!

+RE: We cleared all of that stuff when talking to apple care...There is absolutely no way I used 60 GB of space in a month...+
Well, clearly something is using that space, and clearly you haven't found it yet. Trust me - the space didn't just magically disappear, something is occupying it!
I would download and use WhatSize (http://www.id-design.com/software/whatsize/). It's 1 MB in size, so if you have 300 MB available you have enough space (and enough for Disk Inventory X too, I just find WhatSize a little easier to use).
So, download it and run it. Click on your HDD and it will catalog everything on there (including invisible items, which show up as filenames beginning with a period). Folders and files are color coded by size, so look through the red items to see what's eating your space.
If it's something you can obviously delete, go ahead. If it's something you're unsure of, an invisible file, or inside an invisible folder, post back for advice on whether it's ok to delete it (note that the OS makes files invisible to prevent you from inadvertantly deleting them!).
Hope this helps...

For some reason, my mac says i only have 7 gb memory left, when just recently i had 120gb.. what do i do?

How do I fix it.. my mac says i only have 7gb memory left, when i just had 120gb recently and i did not download anything that big

Are you confusing two different things?
Memory and storage or disk space?
The space on your hard disk is called storage or disk space and is used to store data on your disk (files, photos, videos, software, etc.)
The memory in your computer is called RAM (Random Access Memory) and is used by your system and applications.
Average hard disk in a computer is 500gb to 1tb
Average memory on a computer is from 2gb to 8gb
It is impossible that you ever had 120gb of memory in your Mac.
If it is disk space you are talking about, then it could be many things that are taking space on your hard disk;
Did you download many movies, games or other large files from the internet?
Did you transfer a large amount of high resolution photos?

My iphone 4 has no data storage. I have deleted all apps, music and texts and it still says I only have 1.9 GB available. There is nothing in my storage.

My iphone 4 has no data storage. I have deleted all apps, music and texts and it still says I only have 1.9 GB available. There is nothing in my storage.

The problem could be that you don't have enough storage on the device itself, not on iCloud. Go to Settings>General>Usage to see how much "Storage" you have available on the device. Farther down the list is the available storage on iCloud.
Also check:
Go to Settings>iCloud>Storage & Backups>Manage Storage; there, tap the device you need info on and the resulting screen lists Backup Options with which apps store data on iCloud as well. Tap Show All Apps to get the complete list of apps and MB used for backup storage.
A device needs many MB of storage in order to perform a backup to iCloud.

How can I fix this? I have tried to shut my laptop off and let it rest and I have also re-started my wifi router three different times. Someone please help me with this problem so I can begin to use my laptop again as I take it to school and use it for class.
Thanks so much!

FCP, and all software on OSX, has a few different "preference" files (the extension is .plist), which store all your user settings. Each time you resize a window, change a setting, anything, this file is re-written. Kinda easy to see how they would become corrupt every now and then.
-Close FCP
-Navigate to User>Library>Preferences and delete com.apple.FinalCutPro.plist
-Navigate to User>Library>Preferences>Final Cut Pro User Data and delete Final Cut Pro 5.0 Prefs
-Empty your trash
Relaunch FCP and see if that worked.
Download FCP Rescue to make this process easier in the future. When you have FCP running really smooth, open FCP Rescue and create a backup of your preference files. If it starts acting wanky, just run FCP Rescue and Restore your backup preferences. Works really slick, and it's free.
EDIT: Or use the really simple explaination that X posted as I was typing.

Why does my account say I only have $5 when I should have approx. $86?

I recently bought a Mac for college and I was given the $100 iTunes/App Store gift card. I've only used it for two small purchases, after which I should have approximately $86 remaining; yet, when I view my account, it says I only have $5 and if I try to make a purchase of more than that, I'm told that I don't have sufficient funds. Is there any way I can correct this?

That would be an issue that you need to discuss with the iTunes/MAS support folks. When you sign into your account on the iTunes app on your computer check your purchase history. There is an invoice there for verything that you have purchased. If there is a question about a purchase listed, there is a link to iTunes Support from the invoice.

First thing to try is to reset your device. Press and hold the Home and Sleep buttons simultaneously ignoring the red slider should one appear until the Apple logo appears. Let go of the buttons and let the device restart. See if that fixes your problem.

Perhaps this is the main problem why can not open iTunes and inscription is: the folder "iTunes" can not be found or created, and is required. The default location for this folder is inside the "Music" folder. - And after options ok, appears option: Choose iTunes Library with inscription iTunes needs a library to continue.

buy an external HD 1TB for $60
NO notebook is a mass storage device, so dont try to turn it into one, it doesnt work that way.
Unless youre using it every couple weeks, its static data and should be on an external HD
In the case of a Macbook Air or Macbook Pro Retina with ‘limited’ storage on the SSD, this distinction becomes more important in that in an ever rapidly increasing file-size world, you keep vital large media files, pics, video, PDF collections, music off your SSD and archived on external storage, for sake of the necessary room for your system to have free space to operate, store future applications and general workspace. You should never be put in the position of considering “deleting things” on your macbook SSD in order to ‘make space’.
Professionals who create and import very large amounts of data have almost no change in the available space on their computers internal HD because they are constantly archiving data to arrays of external or networked HD.
Or in the case of the consumer this means you keep folders for large imported or created data and you ritually offload and archive this data for safekeeping, not only to safeguard the data in case your macbook has a HD crash, or gets stolen, but importantly in keeping the ‘breathing room’ open for your computer to operate, expand, create files, add applications, for your APPS to create temp files, and for general operation.

You do not have enough free disk space to create the database

Hello,
When I try to create a database, I have this error message:

HT1923 iTunes will not download. I have windows 7. Have uninstalled iTunes but I still can't download it. I have plenty of disk space and when I press the download iTunes button nothing happens

I have uninstalled iTunes and everything related but still cannot download iTunes. When I click in "download iTunes" nothing happens at all. I have plenty of disk space and don't know what else it could be. My laptop is only 2 years old and is fully updated

Hi Kazwa,
Here is an article that has some information on downloading iTunes using Internet Explorer that may help:

Update download trouble: App Store says, in error, "-not enough free disk space"

I wonder if anyone can help me troubleshoot this... I am unable to download some updates as from the App Store, and instead get an error message that suggests I don't have enough free disk space despite there being over 100GB free.
More detail: after installing Mavericks successfully, I started updating a few applications. While downloading iMovie and iPhoto there was an error - can't recall what the pop-up said, but I think it was a fairly general kind of error message. When I then tried to download them again, the App Store gave me an error message about free disk space, so I deleted a bunch of files and tried again. Same result, same error message ("Your hard disk does not have enough free space"). I checked on free space, however, and at this point I had over 100GB of free space.
I tried deleting the com.apple.storeagent folder in my Library/Caches folder, then trying again. but it made no difference. I've restarted, repaired permissions, verified the disk, restarted again, and I'm still seeing the error.
One odd feature of this problem: in the App Store purchases tab (see screengrab below), the icons for both iMovie and iPhoto are missing/broken, which might just point the way to what is going wrong.
System details:
IMac 27", 2009
2.8GHz i7
12GB RAM
Running OS X 10.9
Couple of screengrabs to illustrate:

From the menu bar, select
 ▹ System Preferences ▹ Time Machine
If the padlock icon is closed, click it to unlock the settings and authenticate. Turn Time Machine OFF, then turn it backON and close the preference pane. Wait a few minutes, then try the operation again.

It says I only have 313MB of disk space...
