Macbook says disc is full, but there's no way that's possible.

Hey there,
I have a MBP Retina, mid-2012, with 710GB of hard drive space.
Somehow, I only have 1GB left, although there is just no way that's possible!
MacKeeper says I'm only using 350GB, and my system profiler is reporting 373GB being used, with 333GB being reported as "other".
(I should note that I have partitioned my HD, so there's a seperate disc taking up 40GB that I only use for Windows).
Does anyone have any idea what "other" may be?
Please help!

MacKeeper says
Ugggh,  uninstall that program.  There are 1000 threads on this forum about that garbageware.
Ignore anything Mackeeper says, its a wooden nickel covered in snake venom.

    I think here is the post you reffering  Curve 9360 keeps running out of memory no matter how much I delete!

    Someone said to move everything to the memory card. But that is the memory card! I gave up and deleted all 22 photos except one that it tells me is read only?? It still tells me i only have room for 22 more photos! Nothing else is on it it! It used to hold like a hundred! There has to be some way to delete all thse trash or cache files, whatever they're called. 
    What is size of your Media Card ? 
    If this happening within Media Card then first do a Backup of your Media Card then format your Memory Card from within your Device Or using a PC. To format your Memory Card  from within your device Go to Options > Device > Storage > On that Screen Press the Menu Key > Hit on Format .
    In addition be sure that you have enabled Media Card Support , Homescreen > Options > Device > Storage > Be sure that Media Card Support is Marked or Ticked .
    Try it and see if that help.

  • My iphone4 will not sync with itunes. when it does sync on my computer it brings up pictures only and no music. My iphone says sync to computer but there is no way to do that. I uninstalled itunes and it didn't do any good. what can i  do?

    My iphone4 will not sync to music. IT will sync to pictures. I uninstalled itunes and put it back in but nothing. Also, itunes does not come up when i plug my phone into the computer. I have to click on itunes for it to come up. I am not sure what to do. Thanks Melani

    You say your phone will not sync but then you say, "when it does sync."
    Does it sync or not? Did you remember to select music to sync onto your phone before clicking on Apply or Sync?
    You do have to have iTunes on your computer in order to sync your phone. And your music must be in iTunes.

  • Why can't I find "organize bookmarks" in the bookmarks drop-down menu? I read that Show all bookmarks has replaced it, but there is no way that I can see to manage/organize them from this screen.

    As stated above

    As you already guessed:
    *"Bookmarks > Organize Bookmarks" has been renamed to "Show All Bookmarks" in Firefox 4 and later.

    My mac won't save to a flash drive. It always says the disc is full when there is plenty of space. Solution pls?

    Hi and welcome to Apple Discussions,
    Did you get the flash drive from a reliable source. There are some available on the net that show a large capacity but are only 512 mb. or 1 gb. drives that have been altered to display a much larger capacity.
    Good luck,

  • Am getting message from MacPro that my start up disc is full - but I can't find it and can't figure out what to do to help situation. I've been making a number of imovies, which generates junk files. help?

    I am getting message from MacPro that my start up disc is full - but I can't find this "start up disc" and can't figure out what to do to help situation. I've been making a number of imovies, which generates junk files and material that I should toss in the trash, but it is not clear to me  what items I can toss and which items I can't toss. Can you help? Using the imovie "help" support the system showed me under the menu item "go" where the "start up disc" should be - but that wasn't actually available on my menu!  Thanks for your help!

  • I can't figure out why my ipad is saying it's full but I have just purchased storage on the cloud

    Not sure what I am doing wrong here. I am not able to take pic or vids on ipad as it's saying it's full but I have purchased storage on the cloud and set it up as directed on the website
    Can anyone help me figure out what I need to do please
    Thanks

    An easy check.  Go into the settings on your iPad, and under your iCloud account, check the setting for "photos".  If there is a setting for "my photo stream" and it is on, then you are using Photo Stream - My Photo Stream FAQ - Apple Support
    Note from that FAQ that Photo Stream never used any of your personal iCloud storage anyway, so buying more personal storage does not increase space for photo stream.  Photo stream is a system intended for synchronization of images across multiple devices and was never intended to be used as permanent storage or backup.  It is a temporary parking place for images to allow for them to be shared across multiple devices.
    With iOS 8.3 and OS X 10.10.3, there is a new service, iCloud Photo Library which actually IS online storage of your photo's - all your photo's.  It does use space in your personal iCloud account.  Since the default free storage is only 5GB and is used for your iCloud mail, backups, synchronized files and data, the default setting for iCloud Photo Library is to keep all photo's on the device as they are, in order not to fill up your free iCloud storage.  If you purchase additional storage and want to remove photos from an iDevice or computer, then you need to change the settings on the device to clear out space once it has uploaded images to your iCloud account.
    If, in your iPad's settings, general, about just look at the "version" line.  If it is not showing 8.3, then you cannot possibly be using iCloud Photo Library and must be using Photo Stream.  Until you upgrade to iOS 8.3 you would not even have the option to use iCloud Photo Library as it is a new service, introduced with iOS 8.3.
    If you are running iOS 8.3, under your iCloud account settings, under "Photos" you will have three settings:
    1. iCloud Photo Library - enable this to use your personal iCloud account storage for cloud storage of your photo library
    2. My Photo Stream - enable this to synchronize photo's across all your devices that share the same iCloud account.  This does NOT use any of your personal iCloud account's storage.  Images will be automatically deleted from your stream after 30 days.
    3. iCloud Photo Sharing - allows you to create albums which can be shared (viewed) with others.

  • Exporting slideshow from iphoto to idvd /message says" disc is full"

    when exporting slideshow from iphoto to idvd /message says" disc is full" It is a new mac with 2gb extra memory. I have cleared out all extraneous files, so there should be room on the disc. Help, this is a student''s work and would love to help them burn the dvd slideshow.

    Patricia
    IS this your Hard Disk is full?
    OS X needs about 10 gigs of HD space to function normally. It uses this space for things like Virtual Memory and temporary files and other OS operations.
    I have cleared out all extraneous files, so there should be room on the disc
    How did you do this? Did you empty the trash?

  • My Nano says it's full, but nothing is showing up!

    I have ITunes installed and my library is half full. When I plug my Ipod in it says that my IPod is full, but there is nothing stored in My Music files or on my IPod. When I check my IPod settings, it is saying that I am using more than half of my memory, but 0 songs, and 0 pics. Does anyone know what I should do?

    I am having the exact same problem!! I even took my nano to the Apple store yesterday, and the "genius" who helped me had no idea what to do. He erased the nano's drive in hopes that it would work, but my iTunes still says that the nano is updated with all songs when there are, in fact, no songs on the nano.
    If I can't figure this out on my own, I'm taking the nano back today.
    Please help!

    Transfer all of your content to the computer:
    Tunes Store: Transferring purchases from your iPhone, iPad, or iPod to a computer

    Then try turning the device off and on again. I'd leave it off for 10-15 minutes, but that is up to you:

    If the item is still there, you may need to restore the device:

    Hope that helps . Worst case scenario, you may need to write into iTunes support to see if they can also help!!

    If that's not a real email, you need to ask Apple to reset your security questions; ways of contacting them include clicking here and picking a method for your country, phoning AppleCare and asking for the Account Security team, and filling out and submitting this form.
