Low on space error

I use LR 5 on a Win 7 platform. My Lightroom 5 catalog is on an external HD that has 601 GB of unused space. When i back up my program, why do I get an error saying "Your disk J, which contains your Lightroom cataglog, is critically low on space."?
Thanks for your help.
RR

I have gotten that same error "critically low on space" message, on three different CPU's and in many different versions of Lightroom, including Beta 3.
Most recently on a brand new CPU with a terabyte of free disk space, 16 gigs ram and no trash files.
It is an intermittent problem and I always have memory and disk space available when I receive the error message.
The program seems to operate fine after the message goes away.

Attempted solutions:
-I created a new User Account and I can download large files with no issues.
-I ran "Repair Disk Permissions" but still get warnings.

Back up all data. Don't continue unless you're sure you can restore from a backup, even if you're unable to log in.
This procedure will unlock all your user files (not system files) and reset their ownership and access-control lists to the default. If you've set special values for those attributes on any of your files, they will be reverted. In that case, either stop here, or be prepared to recreate the settings if necessary. Do so only after verifying that those settings didn't cause the problem. If none of this is meaningful to you, you don't need to worry about it.
Step 1
If you have more than one user account, and the one in question is not an administrator account, then temporarily promote it to administrator status in the Users & Groups preference pane. To do that, unlock the preference pane using the credentials of an administrator, check the box marked Allow user to administer this computer, then reboot. You can demote the problem account back to standard status when this step has been completed.
Enter the following command in the Terminal window in the same way as before (triple-click, copy, and paste):
{ sudo chflags -R nouchg,nouappnd ~ $TMPDIR.. ; sudo chown -R $UID:staff ~ $_ ; sudo chmod -R u+rwX ~ $_ ; chmod -R -N ~ $_ ; } 2> /dev/null
This time you'll be prompted for your login password, which won't be displayed when you type it. You may get a one-time warning to be careful. If you don’t have a login password, you’ll need to set one before you can run the command. If you see a message that your username "is not in the sudoers file," then you're not logged in as an administrator.
The command will take a noticeable amount of time to run. Wait for a new line ending in a dollar sign (“$”) to appear, then quit Terminal.
Step 2 (optional)
Take this step only if you have trouble with Step 1 or if it doesn't solve the problem.
Boot into Recovery. When the OS X Utilities screen appears, select
Utilities ▹ Terminal
from the menu bar. A Terminal window will open.
In the Terminal window, type this:
res
Press the tab key. The partial command you typed will automatically be completed to this:
resetpassword
Press return. A Reset Password window will open. You’re not going to reset a password.
Select your boot volume ("Macintosh HD," unless you gave it a different name) if not already selected.
Select your username from the menu labeled Select the user account if not already selected.
Under Reset Home Directory Permissions and ACLs, click the Reset button.
Select
 ▹ Restart
from the menu bar.

Premiere Elements reports low disk space error right at the end

Ok, so I wait for 5 hours for a 3 hour long video to get saved to my computer. It goes to 99% and then I get a low disk space error. After I clear up space, and click Ok, it starts all over again. Firstly, why doesn't PrE calculate/predict how much disk space I would need BEFORE starting to save, and secondly why does it at least not resume the saving process after I clear up disk space, instead it starts all over, with my 5 hours wasted?
Some serisous usability issues. Is it just me or do these things drive others crazy too?
Expected more from Adobe...

Unfortunately, as PrE uses a 2-Pass Encoding scheme (helpful to get the best quality within the same file size), it does not know exactly how much space will be used, until well into the second pass - the first is a survey of any motion in the Clips on the Timeline, and the second is the actual Encoding, and writing of a file.
Another consideration, regarding disk usage is whether one is Exporting/Sharing both Audio & Video. If one IS doing a Multiplexed file (with both an Audio and a Video Stream in one file), a Video-only file is written first, and then an Audio-only file, with a few "helper files" to be used in just a moment. Then, when that has completed, PrE reads those helper files, and creates the final, Multiplexed file. Last, the two separate Audio-only and Video-only files are Deleted. That takes some space, as at some point, one will have three large files, though two will be Deleted, along with the little helper files.
How much defragmented, free-space do you have?
What is your I/O setup, i.e. the number of physical HDD's, and how they are allocated?
Good luck,
Hunt

LMS 3.2 server - low disk space error.. Upm.db increasing rapidly......please help

we r facing problem of low disk space error......upm.db file incresing 1 to 2 gb per week.
if this continues our disk will get full & system may get crashed...... pls help

Probably most space is being consumed by CSCOpx\log. To quickly cleanup some logs, you can manuall run the command:
logrot_trunc c:\Progra~1\CSCOpx\log\syslog.log
Assuming this is the correct path on your server. You can also schedule log rotation to occur on a regular basis to avoid the logs growing past a certain point. This can be scheduled under Common Services > Server > Admin > Log Rotation.
Might also be a good idea to check if you have debugging turned on under the various modules in LMS to decrease the speed of the log growth by setting the logging to a lower level.

That normally occurs because someone has turned on system protection for the partition. I can't see your image just yet.
Check to make sure that has not happened.
The following image is how the system protection window should look
The following image is what you should see in your recovery partition if you have file options to show protected files. Anyhting else should not be there.

Low Disk Space Error on Install

So I've been struggling on this all morning. I can't install
flash player on my hard drive because it says I have a low disk
space. I read on some forums that it's because the flash player
software is hardcoded to check the 'C:\' for sufficient space. My
hard drive is the 'H:'. My 'C:' drive is allocated as an usb but
whenever I plug in a flash drive it defaults to 'K:'. I have tried
to tinker around in disk management but I cannot rename or change
my 'H' drive to be the 'C:'. I can not also rename the 'K:' to be
the 'C:' either. This seems like such a simple problem, I'm a
little disappointed that the software is written so that it checks
the 'C' drive opposed to the drive the .exe file is running off of.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks

Low disk space error

When trying to navigate in large Word files--about 50 pages long, with many photo files within, I get an error message that I do not have enough disk space to save the file, or to continue working in the fil. My MacBook has 109.17 GB available on the HD (out of 148.7 GB), so it doesn't seem to be that. What other form of memory can it be referring to? What can I do about this? The computer is old, but new to me, and the hard drive was reformatted when I got it, about three months ago.

Hi...
The computer is old, but new to me, and the hard drive was reformatted when I got it, about three months ago.
Disk space and memory (RAM) are two differen things.
"not enough disk space" refers to the amount of free space on the hard disk.
Even though the drive was reformatted, might be a good time to run Disk Utility to see if the startup disk needs repairing.
Launch Disk Utility located in /Applications/Utilities
Select the startup disk on the left then select the First Aid tab.
Click Verify Disk (not Verify Disk Permissions)
If the disk needs repairing, follow the instructions for Using Disk Utility to verify or repair disks
While you have Disk Utiilty open, check the S.M.A.R.T. status at the bottom of the window. Make sure it says: Verified

Client Import -- low disk space error

Hi experts,
i am using SQL server 2005 on wix 2003 64 bit.
I was doing client copy using SCC8 from Prod to Dev Server, total size of request file is 5 GB, while Importing request thru STMS, import stopped due to low space for log file in Development server.
Is there any way to stop the logs while importing a client . Suggest the way out.
thanks in advance

You can put the database in 'SIMPLE' mode to stop logging during an heavy activity.
If you want to 'continue' with the 'logging' then you need to take backup frequently to prevent low space for log file problem. Execute the transactional log backup with more frequency during the long and heavy activity.

Low disk space in recovery disk (d) drive in window 8.1

I continue to receive the subject warning. I have never added any files to D, but I have 32.3 MB free of 25.5 GB. I have Administrator privilrges but am unable to view the files on D. When I click on recovery, I get an HP warning.

Hi @pjd10
I grasp that you are a low disk space error on recovery D. I regret that you are having that difficulty.
Here is a link to HP PCs - Error: Low Disk Space. You are running out of disk space on Recovery (Windows 8) that should guide you to resolving this issue.
Best of Luck!

I keep getting a (false) notification from HP Support Assistant: low disk space on C drive?

Hi, this morning upon starting up my computer the magnifying glass was hovering over the HP Support Assistant icon and usually that means it is checking for updates etc... but I noticed it turned into a yellow exclamation mark so I clicked on it and opened up HP Support Assistant. The exclamation mark was now in the "updates and tune-ups" and said there were "recommended messages available." Upon clicking this the exclamation is now on the HP messages tab and upon clicking that I am taken to a notification that says: "Low Disk Space on Primary Drive C:" So I click on it to find out more information and it says that I am running out of free disk space on my C drive and that I need to perform a disk cleanup etc...
I went to My Computer to see just how in jeopardy I was in of running out of space on my C drive. To my amazement it stated that I still had 1.27 TB of 1.35 TB available and have only used 6% of my space...
I tried emptying my recycle bin, clearing my cache, doing an actual disk cleanup, and restarting to no avail, the magnifying glass comes back after restart and the notification returns telling me that I am low on disk space in the C drive...
I have come to the conclusion that this must be a false notification but I have no idea how to get rid of it...it isn't a huge issue as it doesn't impair my usage on the computer, however, it is kind of annoying to keep seeing this notification...
Is there any way to get rid of this notification?

Incorrect Low Disk Space Warning from HP Support Assistant

I have an HP Envy m7 notebook. I am getting a warning from the HP Support Assistant that the Primary Drive C: has low disk space. However, my Windows 8.1 Properties box for the C: drive says more that 90% of the drive is free, as I guessed. Why am I getting this seemingly incorrect warning?

Hi sheryltoo,
Thank you for your query, I will do my best to assist you.
I understand the HP support assistant is giving you a low disk space error, but you have plenty of free space available.
Did the error pertain to a different drive letter other then you main drive?
I suggest you uninstall and reinstall the The HP Support Assistant. If you have an older versions installed that may be why you are getting a false error.
Please let me know the outcome.

Low Disk space in C drive

Hi All,
My MII server showing "Low Disk Space" error for every 10 to 15 days once. I think the log files been generated more.
My "C" drive has about 99.9GB space.
Let me know how to avoid it?

I would first look at which files are being generated that take up the space before changing any settings. However, there are a number of log files which can be generated automatically and which can grow rather large. Please identify the version and build of your MII (and NW if applicable) system.
Thanks,
Mike

HP G7 LAPTOP message keeps popping up Hp tools low storage space what do i do?

Pavillion G7 131 Notebook laptop Windows 7 low disk space error HP_TOOLS WHAT DO I DO to fix it?

Hi
You have a couple of options as I see it.
Are you storing any files on D:? It should not be used for storage and files you put there should be moved somewhere else.
Be sure Windows System Restore is turned OFF for the D drive
Control Panel (icon view) > System >Advanced System Settings > System Protection Tab
If it is ON for D:, highlight D: and click configure button, tick "turn off system restore" then OK, be sure to do this for D: and Not C:
2) Go to Start -> Control panel -> Back up & Restore -> Change the Drive to DVD Drive for back up.
3) Go to the D drive right click and run a Disc clean UP.
Let us know how it goes!
