Message ,not enough room to download movie, but I have spane

When I try to down load a movie I purchase I receive a message that tells me to rearrange my storage, but my storage has lots of space AND I purchased more space. What am I doing wrong?

iCloud space which you can purchase more off, has nothing to do with your devices physcialy space which you can;t change. What you bought is what you are stuck with.
Go to Settings->General->About. In the list there should be a "Capacity" entry, and an "Available" entry. how much Available space does it say you have?
Movies tend to need around 1.2 to 1.5 GB for standard definition, and about double that for HD.

I get error message: not enough space to download when I try to buy a tv series on Itunes. It tells me to delete photos or videos to make space, but I have no photos and videos. Help?

I get error message: not enough space to download when I try to buy a tv series on Itunes. It tells me to delete photos or videos to make space, but I have no photos and videos. Help?

I would guess that a TV series takes up a fair amount of storage capacity. It is just a standard message I think that may indicate that you are actually running low on storage space.
If you go to Settings>General>About how many GBs are specified as being available? If you are low on space maybe deleting some apps may help.

TS1424 not enough room to download and gb are available

My ipad told me i have not enough room available. My movie stopped downloading What can I do?

Chances are if you only have 7 GBs left on your iPad. You are not going to get a full season of episodes on it.
Video takes up a lot of storage/memory space.
If you have a computer with iTunes on it, you could try and download the entire season to your computer in iTunes and
either connect your iPad to the computer and sync individual episodes until you reach the limit on your iPad, or , if you have WiFi on both your computer and iPad, use iTunes Home sharing to stream each series episode from your computer's iTunes library to the iPad.

HT5957 7.01. Not enough room to download

To download this update I need 2.9GB free space. The download is only 667MB. I will have to delete all pictures to accomplish this. Any suggestions? Thanks.

I would move as much as you can into a drop box account or Google Drive. I know Google Drive gives you 15GB for free. Drop box im not sure but I use both all the time. The illusion that Apple products dont have external storage device locations or provisions is a thing of the past. These days you can use apps like Air Sharing and many more to store alot of information on a Air Disk. As long as you can keep backing up whatever you want into one of the above suggestions, then yoiu can always rearrange what is priority and what is not.
I own a 64GB Iphone and I use to believe that Apple would have to eventually come out with a 128Gb and maybe one day a 256Gb. But now that I have a better understanding on how to use Cloud Drives, it makes so much more sense. Besides, my 64Gb phone has more delays than my previous 32gb iphones. The more info on your device, the more clutter, the more problems....Well, not problems but just a little more work to attend to.
hope this helps.

I try to download an app and it tells me that there is not enough room when there is plenty

An app that is 1.9 GB is saying that there is not enough room to download, even though i have around 3 GB free.

The GB size of the download file is the compressed size (like .zip or .dmg). When the file is installed/uncompressed it can be 2-3 times larger.
You need to delete some files and not run with an almost full storage.
How much space is used by your Other? You may be able to reduce.
How Do I Get Rid Of The “Other” Data Stored On My iPad Or iPhone?
http://tinyurl.com/85w6xwn
With an iOS device, the “Other” space in iTunes is used to store things like documents, settings, caches, and a few other important items. If you sync lots of documents to apps like GoodReader, DropCopy, or anything else that reads external files, your storage use can skyrocket. With iOS 5/6, you can see exactly which applications are taking up the most space. Just head to Settings > General > Usage, and tap the button labeled Show All Apps. The storage section will show you the app and how much storage space it is taking up. Tap on the app name to get a description of the additional storage space being used by the app’s documents and data. You can remove the storage-hogging application and all of its data directly from this screen, or manually remove the data by opening the app. Some applications, especially those designed by Apple, will allow you to remove stored data by swiping from left to right on the item to reveal a Delete button.

I keep getting error message "not enough space on startup disk" on my macbook 10.6, even though I've deleted and compressed many files. Could something else be the problem?

Somehow 1500 web pages were downloaded into my iphone app! That's when the trouble began Now, I keep gettig error message"not enough room on your start up disc. "So I deleted most of theml, but when I compress/delete files, it doesn't help. Now i'm unable to back up to a disc, because I get a similar message about lack of room.. I can't download apple updates or printer updates. My computer is almost unusable. When I took it to the Apple store they had no idea what was wrong.
I bought an external hard drive-Free Agent Go Flex which doesn't seen to function, and has no user interface and apparently little tech support. My cursor is all over the place. No one at Apple seems to be able to fix this computer. Any suggestions for my next move?
Thank you.

IMovie Exporting: "Not Enough Room In The Heap Zone"

Okay, I'm trying to export a video from iMovie '11 on OSX 10.8.4 on a Macbook Pro (without retina display). It is only 1:53.
Every time I try to export I get an error message:
"Unable to prepare project for publishing.
The project could not be prepared for publishing because an error occured. (MemFullErr / iMemFullErr: Not enough room in the heap zone / )"
I have checked literally every forum post about this error and nothing has helped. I have over 700 GB of room on this computer, so there's enough memory for it to export for sure, and I'm not using special characters in the title. I'm trying to export in 720p. I exported a project 2 days ago (which was way longer than this one), in 720p, and it worked fine. I do not have time machine running.
It works when I export it in lower quality, but lower quality isn't good enough.
I've tried exporting it, exporting it with quicktime, publishing it to youtube, exporting it through the share menu, and renaming the project. Nothing is working.
I have not tried clearing the Cache yet, because I could not figure out how to do it. If you could explain how to clear the Cache in great detail, that would be awesome. (Also, if you have another solution, explain that as well.)
I am really frustrated with this problem.
If you could help me out, that would be amazing.
(Please do not link to another article, I've already looked at them all.)

Trouble
When iMovie doesn't work as intended this can be due to a lot of reasons
• iMovie Pref files got corrupted - trash it/they and iMovie makes new and error free one's
• Creating a new User-Account and log into this - forces iMovie to create all pref. files new and error free
• Event or Project got corrupted - try to make a copy and repair
• a codec is used that doesn't work
• problem in iMovie Cache folder - trash Cache.mov and Cache.plist
• version miss match of QuickTime Player / iMovie / iDVD
• preferences are wrong - Repair Preferences
• other hard disk problem - Repair Hard Disk (Disk Util tool - but start Mac from ext HD or DVD)
• External hard disks - MUST BE - Mac OS Extended (hfs) formatted to work with Video
( UNIX/DOS/FAT32/Mac OS Exchange - works for most other things - but not for Video )
• USB-flash-memories do not work
• Net-work connected hard disks - do not work
• iPhoto Library got problems - let iPhoto select another one or repair it. Re-build this first then try to re-start iMovie.
This You do by
_ close iPhoto
_ on start up of iPhoto - Keep {cmd and alt-keys down}
_ now select all five options presented
_ WAIT a long long time
• free space on Start-Up (Mac OS) hard disk to low (<1Gb) - I never go under 25Gb free space for SD-Video (4-5 times more for HD)
• external devices interferes - turn off Mac - disconnect all of them and - Start up again and re-try
• GarageBand fix - start GB - play a few notes - Close it again and now try iMovie
• Screen must be set to million-colors
• Third-party plug-ins doesn't work OK
• Run "Cache Out X", clear out all caches and restarts the Mac
• Let Your Mac be turned on during one night. At about midnight there is a set of maintenance programs that runs and tidying up. This might help
• Turn off Your Mac - and disconnect Mains - for about 20-30 minutes - at least this resets the FireWire port.
• In QuickTime - DivX, 3ivx codec, Flip4Mac, Perian etc - might be problematic - temporarily move them out and re-try
(I deleted the file "3ivxVideoCodec.component" located in Mac HD/Library/Quicktime and this resolved my issue.)

I solved the problem by removing the file: 3ivxVideoCodec.component. after that, up-dated iMovie runs ok.
Last resort: Trash all of iMovie and re-install it

I am trying to download a movie from itunes, but ithere's isn't enough room to download. I have a iphone4, have deleted every app possible. Slimmed down photos to hardly anything. I could never update to ios7 because of storage problems. Only 2.5 GB available out of 5GB after deleting everything. I'm also out of town and cannot connect to a computer. I have wifi access though. Help?

Update
OK, Today I went ahead & booted & tried again & it worked this time.
Not sure why it didn't yesterday. Maybe the servers were just overloaded? Several others reported similar.
Also yesterday when I ran Speedtest it showd download at about 25 mbps, This morning just before I re-started the download it was showing just above 30 mbps. So maybe the internet was less busy? Or at least the parts between me & the test server.
& so far it is working ok.

I had an important app. (Memos by bluemarblesoftware.com) that I accidentally deleted. It of course had many memos, some with quite a lot of information. I did sync my phone on a regular basis and I think the memos should be on the desktop computer. I tried to do a restore function but I got a message saying there was not enough room on the iPhone. How much room is needed?

generally you need 1.90gb
what you can do is back up your phone to your computer before doing the update, just as a precaution.

Ihone 4s lost all contacts. I tried to restore from backup but the error message now says there is not enough room. I have deleted all the apps without making any more room on iphone. Why did contact disappear and how do I get them back?

In the simplest sense, archiving a file means making a copy that you never change and never discard. You already know how to do that.
iPhoto has built-in archival features, in the sense that it saves all versions of an image that you've modified. As long as you have adequate backups, you don't necessarily have any reason to archive an iPhoto library. If you want to delete images from the working library but still have access to them in case you change your mind, then you do need to archive those images. I don't have a specific suggestion as to how you should do that. You might post a question in the iPhoto forum.

I got a new ipad mini and chose to set up as a copy of my iPad. Didn't sync the music on however as it is a smaller model, not enough room. Now trying to get some pictures and music on. Chose some pictures that were not in iPhoto, got a message that I could only sync with one library, chose cancel, and apply and it downloaded my pictures anyway. Now trying to sync some music but just get "The iPad “Linda’s iPad” is synced with another iTunes library. Do you want to erase this iPad and sync with this iTunes library?" So I hit cancel. Have tried several times, same thing. What can I try?

You should be able to accept this message, it will cause existing music, photos (not camera roll) and videos (also excluding those in camera roll) to be removed and replaced with those from this computer. All other user data on the iPad will be unaffected.
