Libraries taking too much disk space

so I'm down to 30GB HD space left on my 500GB MBP. I know the risks and am seeing the performance speed effected. As I search through the sizes of folders/files at the finder level, my iphoto, itunes and aperture libs are the largest. I do a lot of photo work and don't really want to delete lots of images. I don't know what to do. The other large files (short video projects, audio projevcts, etc) are not that large (in the MBs) and deleting tons of small files won't get me to a good, safe un-used HD space. Any recommendations?
Thanks

To add to Allan's advice... I recently went through the same thing with my uncle's iMac - iPhoto, Aperture, and Photoshop. I was able to move to an external drive all photos that he completed and only kept the one's that he is currently working on. In moving 75% of the photos, I was able to clear 100+ gigs.
Also, as Allan pointed out, you can get a fw external drive that is less than a pound and about 5x3 inches and fits easily in a computer bag--no discernable difference in weight.
Good luck!

Time Machine Snapshots are taking too much HDD space

It has taken so far over 155 GB as you can see on this link.
http://i1102.photobucket.com/albums/g445/comics_addict/ScreenShot2011-11-22at112 226PM.png
It appears under "Other" due to me disabling the snapshots on the terminal but unlike I read it still hasn't erase the items from memory.
Any help?
Thanks for your time.

Local snapshots are periodically condensed into daily or weekly snapshots to minimize the space used on your disk. If your disk is low on space, Time Machine stops creating new snapshots, and some or all existing snapshots may be removed to make space available for applications to use. If sufficient disk space becomes available again, Time Machine resumes creating local snapshots. This means your disk will have the same amount of available space as it would if Time Machine were not enabled.
OS X Lion: About Time Machine's "local snapshots" on portable Macs
Disk Space considerations:
Local snapshots require space on your internal HD (and any other disk/partition that Time Machine is backing-up). Time Machine will, however, delete some or all as necessary if it gets too full. The exact criteria are not documented, but appears to vary depending on the size of the volume. On a very small volume (under about 50 GB), it may be as little as 75%; on larger volumes (1 TB or more) it may be as much as 90%. This is doneindependently for each disk/partition. Time Machine does not send any messages when it deletes snapshots.

HT201612 When I installed Windows on my Macbook I allocated too much disk space to Windows, thus reducing the disk space available for MAC OS 10.6. Can I reallocate disk space without damaging existing Mac aplications, files, etc? Thank you.

n I use Boot Camp (Assistant) to change the percentage of disk space allocated to each, without damaging existing MAC applications, files, etc.? Thanks in advance.

make sure Windows will also have the room for updates, cache, page, hibernation, and growth with 20% free space; and Mac should also have 20% or more after accounting for growth.
Spend the $19 and save the headaches with CampTune but backup both - CampTune should help with that chore also but also TimeMachne and clone OS X.

Extra user folder using too much disk space

I was having the low memory available error so I deleted all unused programs ( garage band etc) I moved pics on a flash drive then deleted them ( and emptied the trash) (but whats odd is I put 6+ GB on the flash drive but only recovered 2-3 GB ?)
anyway I was looking to see where all my space is and I found the users folder that has a lot of folders that look like archives of my disk, the newest one has my recent desktop and photos etc, why are these here? they take up to 14 to 35 GB each!
can I delete them?
they have all the pics and movies I thought I deleted ( as well as garage ban app)
so when I look at the info section they all say they where created on the same day- march 18th which is the day I stupidly re-named by home, I eventually put the old name back and copied the created archive back in home and I thought all was well. since then the only thing I have noticed is a slow start up ( after log in password. Is it looking for the folder that takes so long?
I have file vault turned on.
sorry this is long and confusing, I am new to this type of thing- I am off warranty also
here is pic of the user folders listed ( at the bottom that can't be seen is my home folder):
http://i261.photobucket.com/albums/ii43/luckydogblue/other/screengrab.jpg

BDAqua, sort-of, when I realized what I did, I found the copy that was made when I changed it of my original home folder ( Sean) then, I renamed the (new) home back to Sean and moved the files from Sean into it, as I said it appeared to be back to normal ( that was March). I didn't name it Sean_new- is that my problem?
Then last week I noticed the available kb was zero ( I didn't notice if it was getting lower since March). I can't remember what else I might of done before it was fix back in march. it appears to be making copies of home at every log in that is new.
I know at least one of the duplicate user folders is that copy that was archived when I renamed home
here is pic of one of the new user folders from the get info:
http://i261.photobucket.com/albums/ii43/luckydogblue/other/getinfosreengrab.jpg
I hope this helps, I am trying to be descriptive as possible.

Imbedded graphics taking too much vertical space in HTML preview

Does anyone know why imbedded pictures should require more vertical space than expected on the HTML preview?
I imported a .jpg into my report layout, and immediately below it I added a line of text. The HTML preview shows me a LOT of unexpected blank space between the picture and the text.
I then inserted the .jpg into a table in which the "Fit to Content" option is checked. On the RTF layout, it looks great - the margins of the cell snuggle up pretty close to the picture. But when previewed, that extra blank space comes back and appears below the picture - the table row is a lot taller than it needs to be.
I've experimented with different image heights, and the amount of extra vertical space seems to always be about 40% of the height of the picture. So if the picture is 100 pixels tall, the table row is about 140 pixels, with 40 pixels of height in unwanted blank space. I can even set the row height to a value less than the height of the image. On the RTF, it looks right (chops a portion of the image). On the Preview... there's the blank space again.
Not only that, I can't get the picture to locate anywhere other than at the top of the table cell. No matter how I format the cell, the graphic insists on staying at the top.
BTW, the PDF preview behaves correctly. No extra blank space.

What's the 'tiny_spacer_rule' for which is applied to the paragraph tag between the end of your
'header' section and the start of the table?
<li><a href="testimonials/2010/june/2010june_testimonials.html">TESTIMONIALS</a></li>
</ul>

Ora XE (beta) uses too much disk space?

I've noticed that the size of my directory oraclexe/app/oracle/admin/XE/bdump is like 29 GB!
Is there any way to bring this down? I looked up in the admin web interface, but could'n figure it out, so I decided to ask the forum.
Pete

Hi Pete
Oracle's background processes write log and dump files in this directory.
You should have a program to purge old file
Easy example (linux):
find /usr/lib/oraclexe/app/oracle/admin/XE/bdump -mtime +7 -exec rm {} \;
find /usr/lib/oraclexe/app/oracle/admin/XE/udump -mtime +7 -exec rm {} \;
find /usr/lib/oraclexe/app/oracle/admin/XE/adump -mtime +7 -exec rm {} \;(files older then 7 days are deleted)

If photos are in more than one album or event are they taking up twice as much disk space? is there a way to eliminate all duplicates without doing it one by one?

If photos are inmore than one album or event are they taking up twice as much disk space?
Is there a way to eliminate duplicates without doing it one by one?

A photo exists in only one event. However, it can be in multiple albums, slideshows, books, etc. without taking up any additional disk space.
If you truly have duplicates in iPhoto, not as viewed via the Finder you can use one of these applications to identify and remove duplicate photos from an iPhoto Library:
iPhoto Library Manager - $29.95
Duplicate Cleaner for iPhoto - free
Duplicate Annihilator - $7.95 - only app able to detect duplicate thumbnail files or faces files when an iPhoto 8 or earlier library has been imported into another.
PhotoSweeper - $9.95 - This app can search by comparing the image's bitmaps or histograms thus finding duplicates with different file names and dates.
DeCloner - $19.95 - can find dupicates in iPhoto Libraries or in folders on the HD.
Some users have reported that PhotoSweeper did the best in finding all of the dups in their library: i photo has duplicated many photos, how...: Apple Support Communities.
If you have an iPhone and have it set to keep the normal photo when shooting HDR photos the two image files that are created will be duplicates in a manner of speaking (same image) but the only diplicate finder app that detected the iPhone HDR and normal photos as being duplicates was PhotoSweeper. None of the other apps detected those two files as being duplicates as they look for file name as well as other attributes and the two files from the iPhone have diffferent file names.
iPLM, however, is the best all around iPhoto utility as it can do so much more than just find duplicates. IMO it's a must have tool if using iPhoto.

Hi,
>i started SGEN, but it is giving time_out errors. please help me on this issue.
You are supposed to run SGEN as a batch job and so, it should be possible to get time out errors.
I've seen Full SGEN lasting from 3 hours on high end systems up to 8 full days on PC hardware...

Import taking too much time in oracle 7i

Hi Guys
I am trying to import a table of around 9600000 rows. on oracle 7i it is taking too much time. any suggestion or way i can speedup the process?
Thanks in advance
Khurana

Ok.
Note that it is "_disable_logging" not "disable_logging", but I don't have an Oracle 7 database to confirm if it works.
Been a long time since I used Oracle 7. Any reason why you have not upgraded ? Import should be much faster with 11g ...
For further tuning you would need to look at OS and DB performance to find bottlenecks. E.g run bstat / estat.
Other things to look at are disk performance, increase db_block_buffers, increase db_writer etc.

Please guide how can I do it and what will be the best procedure do it ASAP.
Thanks in Advance.

I Have Logic 9. How much disk space will LP X add?

Hi,
just curious... I have LP 9 on my computer, and my disk is getting, well, fuller (250G or so left). How much disk space will be taken if install LP X next to LP 9? Am I correct that LP X will re-use the old libraries and just adds new content to it? Just curious how much my HD will shrink...
For the time being, I want to keep LP9 alongside LP X for old projects with 32 bit plugins.
Thnx, Jaap

Well... I took the plunge... it seems that the additional content is around 20...25 GB.
When I first installed LP X and opened one of my LP 9 projects, the instruments sounded like toy instruments. LP X obviously didn't "know" yet that the HQ samples were already on my harddisk. After I started downloading the additional content LP X apparantly checked what it needed, and suddenly my old projects sounded fine.

This usually happens if you are low on hardware requirements. Check whether your machine confirms with the required software and hardware requirements.
