Lost space after deleted podcasts while downloading.

I've had this happen twice: once on my iPhone 5S and once on my iPad 2. I start a download of a podcast in the iOS Podcast app and then cancel the download. In the case of my iPad 2, it froze and eventually when to the Apple logo screen. When it was done, I lost about 6 GB of storage space and needed to reset my settings and data on my iPad to get it back.
On my iPhone 5S, I had the podcast add crash bug, so I removed and reinstalled it. I forgot to change the settings to not download so it started downloading about 50 podcasts at once. I started swiping to delete them (which inadvertently unsubscribed from all my podcasts). When I was done, the downloads had stopped, but I lost 4 GB of space, which was not reclaimed when I deleted the podcast app again. What's weird is iTunes still shows my iPhone as having 4.5 GB free, but the phone itself said it only had 909 MB free. I tried re-installing the podcast app, but the podcasts didn't show up there. I tried restarting and hard resetting, but that didn't help. Basically the space was gone. I called Apple Support and was told I needed to do a restore.

I have the same problem, but it happened when I downloaded a sample of a book so I can not do the solution offered by Beachdogz. I would just buy the book but I can't because it says downloading so there's no buy option. Actually it says downloading downloading (twice) if that helps.
Would appreciate any help.
Thanks

Go into the App Store, tap Updates, and at the top should appear Purchases. Hit the tab that says "Not on this iPhone" to download again

Release of space after delete/truncate table

Hello,
How does release of space after delete/truncate table works? Is the space used before deletion released once delete is complete or not? Will I see the space occupied by deleted table as free in dba_segments or will I need to reorganize the table (drop and recreate again?). Reason why I am asking is that I can see table with 0 rows, but in dba_segment I can see it is occupying few gigabytes....
Thank you

External HD won't free-up space after deleting files

Hello. My old Maxtor 500 Gb external hard-drive won't free-up any space after deleting many, many files. I'm using a late 2009 iMac i5 desktop with Snow Leopard. I had 6 Time Machine backups of my old MacBook Pro on the drive - each taking up roughly 70-80 Gb of space. I deleted 3 of the Time Machine backups as they were close enough in date to other backups so I wasn't going to lose any data. This should have freed up more than 200 Gb of space on the external hard drive. However, the hard drive still shows having only 10 Gb of space available. I deleted the Trash from the Dock. The Trash is empty. I unmounted the hard drive, turned it off and reconnected it. I restarted the computer. Still no change. Please help me. Thanks!

Welcome to Apple Discussions-
Are you using FileVault? If so, you have to log out or restart in order for the disk space to be reclaimed.

Exfat drive does not free up space after deleting files

My external exfat formatted drive does not free up space after deleting files using a mac....however if I delete files using a PC, it will free up space.
I've even tried the *erase free space* using Disk Utility, but nothing.....
Thoughts/Suggestions??

Thanks for the suggestion.
I ran WhatSize and here is the result. Oddly, it says there is 40.2 GB used (in the top-left) which conflicts with the information directly below it: "Capacity 108 GB, Used 103GB, Available 4.27 GB". Not so helpful.
Disk Inventory X solved the problem, however. Much thanks! I wasted most of my weekend troubleshooting this sad issue. Anyway, Disk Inventory X revealed a bug where my external hard drive for photos was still appearing as a mounted volume, even though the HD was no longer connected. Freaky.
After moving it to the trash and deleting it, I've recovered the space.
Again, thanks! Contact me if you're curious about the details, as this might help you diagnose similar problems in the future.

Freeing space after deleting files

Has anyone tried to free the LOB space after deleting a file? We've been using the aging feature but none of the space utilized by files that have been migrated to disk was freed after the file was moved to BFILE.

Nas drive does not recalculating space after deleting files on Nas Drive??

Greetings to Respected expert,
Actually we have configure Window server 20082 Storage server.We have NAS drive configured which have 300GB quota limit. The actual data in the folder is 185 GB but it shows only 15 GB free and shows a warning .Please assist me why NAS server does not re-calculate
the space after deleting files or does not leave space. Pardon me if I am not able to clear you my problems.this is very urgent for me.
Thanks And Regards
Rajnish Singh

Hi Rajnish,
As you mentioned "quota limit", it is set via FSRM or specific function on NAS?
Meanwhile could you confirm the number 185GB is accurate? Sometimes a part of used space is just not calculated. You can confirm with checking the total space on NAS locally.
If the number is correct and quota is set via FSRM, check if it is the Disk Quota which not re-calculated the released space. Try to clear the Quota setting and reconfig with 300GB limitation and see if issue still exists.
If you have any feedback on our support, please send to [email protected]

Lost space after glitched movie download

I downloaded a movie I had purchased in iTunes a long while ago to my iPhone 5. It seemed to glitch and was stuck in processing. I attempted to reset the download and it seemed to do the same for a while then completed. I deleted it. I did a hard reset on my phone (pressing power button and front button) and I still seem to have lost several gig to a corrupted file I am guessing. Deleting the 2nd download shows that it is not on my phone; however, when I add up the space used by apps it seems to correspond to what I saw my original available space was. Has anyone else experienced this? I do not back up to iTunes I just use the cloud for apps and pull all pictures off. I do not want to do a reset all data option as I would loose text messages etc. Is there a fix to this? I find this unacceptable that the OS would not free up glitched files on its own. If it created some type of temp file it should be removed by the OS.
I did not know how much the iOS takes up space wise. Does anyone know? I seem to have lost around 2-3 gig.
Iphone 5, ios 7.1.2 32 gig
Thanks!

You can try the basic troubleshooting steps. But if they don't work, you know what you have to resort to already.
Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button.
Reset 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 - let go of the buttons.
Go to Settings>General>Usage>Storage>Video> look for the movie in there. If it is in there form whatever reason - delete it. Swipe across It in the list or use the edit button.
Sometimes just a simple sync can help, but you make it sound like you are not near your computer, so I don't know if that is an option for you right now.

Why Oracle Linux 5 cannot recover disk space after delete files ?

Folks,
Hello. When I create a Virtual Machine for Oracle Linux 5 to install EBS R12, I allocate 300GB to the VM. I download EBS R12 Source Files (45.7GB) and unzip the files (46GB). Total size of stage area directory(EBS_R12) is 91.7GB.
Because some files are corrupted and cannot install, I move the folder EBS_R12 into trash but cannot empty trash. I move EBS_R12 from trash back to the directory. Then at root user, use command "rm -rf " to delete EBS_R12 completely.
I shut down Oracle Linux 5 and restart it, 91.7GB disk space cannot recover.
I download some other files into Oracle Linux files and then delete those files, but disk space cannot be recovered either.
It seems that OEL5 virtual disk only can expand but cannot be reduced. The VM disk space is less than 200GB now and not enough to install EBS R12.
Can any folks tell me how to make 91.7GB disk space and some more disk space come up ?

Folks,
Hello. Thanks a lot for replying.
Host OS is Windows 7, Guest OS is Oracle Linux 5 on the top of VMPlayer 3. The VM of Oracle Linux 5 is created on the external USB drive and not on the local hard disk.
There is a directory /tmp/VMwareDnd/376c7cae/EBS_R12 in Oracle Linux 5 file system. I copy/Paste the folder of EBS_R12 from Windows 7 into Oracle Linux 5. All of zip files and unzipped files are placed in the folder of EBS_R12.
After EBS_R12 is deleted, the external USB drive(F:) doesn't come up 91.7GB disk space.
My question is:
Where to run "boot>linux rescue" command ?
Does this command work correctly in the external USB drive ?

How to reclaim the space after delete

Hi All,
Today we deleted large number of rows from one table, but we didn't get free space after that. So for testing purpose, I have created one test tablespace with 5mb size .Created a table and inserted n number of rows in that table and made the tablespace full.I checked in dba_segments(5mb) and dba_free_space tables.It shows perfectly.After that I deleted all the records and try to create a simple table,but it returns (ORA-01658: unable to create INITIAL extent for segment).I read some time back in tom's forum that delete willn't reclaim the space ,instead it will go to freelist of table..Is there any way to reclaim the space?(after delete)
and also I used to see the tablesize by using dba_segments table.but now it shows 5mb of size for the empty table.Is there any query to get the exact table size?Please help me to understand the concept.
Thanks,Jvel

Thanks,JvelDELETE simply deletes the specified rows. The blocks/extetents that were allocated to hold those rows remain allocated. The theory is that if the table once needed sufficient blocks/extents to hold 'x' rows, it may need so again at some time in the future. Allocating and de-allocating extents is a pretty expensive operation, so oracle is not going to waste time and resources constantly doing that just because you delete rows, which is a perfectly normal DML operation. Unless you don't expect that table to grow again, I'd not waste my time trying to reclaim the space.

Reclaim disk space after delete an index

Hi ,
I have deleted unused indexes from a history table to reclaim the disk space was allocated for these indexes , yet the size on the disk is the same , any steps I can follow to achieve this would be greatly appreciated..
indexes size is 70 GB
table size is 45 GB , # of rows is above 200 Million
Thanks in advance

in order to reclaim space after your big delete. Don't shrink your data files unless you have no other choice.
The space will automatically go back to SQL server. You don't have to do anything.
The database size will be the same plus the growth of your log file due to logging the transactions. However, internally, SQL server knows that it still has that space to play with.
Other wise you can go for update the statistics and rebuild indexes . but I think it would be the part of your normal weekend nightly maintenance plan

Reuse of freed space after DELETE statement (ASSM)

Dear Members,
After DELETE of records in tables, the USED SPACE in tablespace still grows when new records are inserted. So the freed space is apparently not reused!
DB is Oracle 9.2. and ASSM is used.
Does anyone knows how to solve this problem?

1) Table (heap) space will continue to grow after deletes if the new rows are appended (APPEND HINT). Appending rows does not reuse free space in existing blocks.
2) Index space will continue to grow after deletes if the leaf blocks could not be reused. Index leaf blocks will be reused only if a) new data index keys will fit in on of the existing leaf blocks that still has entries after the delete completes; b) all of the entries in the leaf block were deleted and a new leaf block needs to be added to the index. It is possible to shrink/coalesce or rebuild an index to cure this phenomenon.

Regaining lost space after error when removing Bootcamp partition?

     I am running snow leopard 10.8.2 and had a bootcamp partition of 115gb for Windows 7. Recently I tried to remove the partition using the bootcamp assistant and it displayed an error message that it was unable to remove the partition, however the icon for the partition disappeared in finder and the startup disk menu. I tried to remove the partition again in the same way and this time the error message did not come up, but the utility froze while it was removing the partition and after waiting for an hour or so I had to force quit the utility and restart my Mac. The bootcamp partition doesn't show up, but I did not get the 115gb back? Any ideas how I can reclaim it? Any help is much appreciated!

Notice the 76GB Free Space in the diskutil cs list output.
Unless Kappy has alternative suggestion, I suggest the following (the last 'b' is bytes).
diskutil cs resizeVolume <UseTheLongStringUUIDAboveTheMacintoshHDLine = DB68...> <UseTheSizeInBytesUnderTheLogicalVolumeGroupEntry = 250140434432b>
diskutil cs resizeVolume
Usage: diskutil coreStorage resizeVolume
        lvUUID|MountPoint|DiskIdentifier|DeviceNode size
Resize a logical volume, which is one of one or more disks that consume storage
out of a logical volume group. The logical volume group will have more or less
available space after this operation, if it was a shrink or grow, respectively.
Example: diskutil coreStorage resizeVolume
         11111111-2222-3333-4444-555555555555 10g

How can I remove blank space after month value while selecting to_char(sysdate)

Lost 110 GB of disk space after deleting files in target mode... A mystery?

Dear all,
Yesterday, I used my MBP in Target Disk mode and deleted a directory with approx. 110 GB of files in it. Now I found out that this space is mysteriously gone: the available free space on my hard disk did not increase, and the files are not in the trash or anywhere where I can find them.
I tried Disk Utility doing ‘Verify Disk’ as well as ‘Repair Disk Permissions’, but with no success.
Could any one advice me how I can recover my disk space?
Thanks in advance....
/Rudi

Thanks, Tony.
No, they are not in the trash of the other computer. It would also have taken the computer a while to transfer these files (110 GB takes a while, even over FireFire 800).
The issue is not that I want to recover these files (I have backup copies), I just would like to have my disk space back. It is siting somewhere but 'lost' to the DOS.
Best, Rudi
