No space on device error

Hi, I just got a brand new mac book air and updated it immediately to mountain lion. Now I tried to download the eclipse IDE which is around 200mb.. Just when it was about to finish I get the error that "Safari could not download item as there is not enough free disk space"
My mac book is a brand new 128gb version. I did get info on my macintosh HD and found that there is 98gb of free space. What is the problem here?

Fixed the problem,
Booted in with an Arch Emergency Stick, mounted and chrooted
Remade the initcpio, minus lvm2 HOOK. No problems this time, strange.
Everything is golden, marking as solved

Not enough space on device error when creating new diskimage on HD, but 173 gb free

when trying to create a new protected diskimage on HD, i receive an error message "not enough free space on device" eventhough i have 173 GB of unused space

Most likely the error refers to your disc image not having sufficient space allocated to it or you are trying to create a disc image whose size exceeds 173 GBs or whose size request is greater than the largest contiguous amount of space on the drive. This can happen if the drive is highly fragmented.

I/O device error when trying to backup system image on my K330B running Windows 7 Home Premium

I set up my Idea Centre K330B to schedule complete system backups to an external HDD once a week. This worked fine for three months, then about a month ago a scheduled backup failed due to "device error encountered with either the source or the destination (0x8078012D)". It also gave "Additional information: The request could not be performed because of an I/O device error. (0x8007045D)"
I ran chkdsk/r on both the backup drive ( E: ) and the system drive ( C: ) and no problems were found. The backup drive has plenty of available space. I tried the backup to a freshly NTFS-formated external drive. I tried the backup with my BitDefender 2012 Anti-virus disabled. I tried the backup after booting in safe mode. Nothing works.
If I specify to backup only C: and not the reserved partition the backup completes with no problems.
I get the same error condition whether I perform the backup with Windows or the Lenovo backup software.
Is it possible I have a disk corruption on the reserve partition that is not found and repaired by the chkdsk/r C: operation?
I'm thinking about saving all important user files and rebooting to the factory settings, but if the reserver partition is damaged I might end up with a dead 4-month-old PC.
I would greatly appreciate any help or advice as to how to get these backups going again.

I just tried running the Lenovo Hard Drive Quick Test both in normal mode and in safe mode. Both times it indicated a failed read test on the HDD. The last two tests also failed. I forget what those tests were called.
I am really beginning to think I have a bad HDD and the problem just happens to be in the reserved partition where my factory system software resides.

Device error when burning Blu Ray disk at 96%

Very simple program to use so far. Just drag and drop.
My current project was shot in HD 1080p about 2 hours or 13 gig long and I made 4 lower resolution DVD's no problem. I like how it shrunk it with out me having to do anything other than check the box (use space available)
However when I went to make Blu Rays in addition to taking about 18 hours its gets right to the end and spits the disk out unfinished and has device error at about 96% of burning finished. Disk will not play.
I have ruined 3 blank 4x blu ray disks so far, same result. I have down loaded and installed the 8.01 update, I will turn off the screen saver and anything else I can find, before I try it again.
Its a new computer with only PE8 running on it. Quad core Gateway with 8 gig ram and a almost empty 1tb hard drive and LG blue ray writer.
I have not tried to burn anything else with the blu ray writer, as thats what PE8 was for.
I did not have the timeline fully rendered before I started, if that makes any difference.
Anybody have any ideas.
Thanks in advance.
Philip

Sorry I'm a newby. I'll put this is PRE 8 where it belongs.

Device error -the target device isn't suitable for use. Solution found!?

Hello everyone,
I have received the following error many times on my machine for different projects when trying to burn to disk and folders:
Device error -the target device isn't suitable for use.
I have multiple hard drives with ~60GB, 40GB and 12GB. I have tried to burn 4.7GB discs and folders and 8.5GB folders.
I have previously tried nearly ALL 20 troubleshooting items recommended by Adobe and have even changed to Verbatim media. None of these solved the problem.
What did solve the problem, EVERY SINGLE TIME, was freeing up hard drive space or reducing the length of the project.
You may look at the available hard drive space and THINK that you have enough. But you don't.
Perhaps the remainder of this thread could be used to discuss the disk space requirements for projects. I can't seem to crack the formula. I just keep deleting/archiving files until the project works. I have ordered some new big HDD's to be rid of this error forever.
Justin.

While it is certainly possible that diskspace is one factor in getting the dreaded "target device isn't suitable message" (usually after lenghthy processing), it does not appear to be the only one.
I got the message trying to burn a 3 minute video to a dvd on two seperate computers one running xp pro with 150Gb of spare disk space and one running W7 HP with 50Gb of spare space. Tryng to burn to a folder gave the same error.
To me, this pointed to something in the app, or the project, so firstly I deleted the disk menu...burn completed ok. Re-instated a menu (different one)....burn failed. Removed one scene marker and the stop marker......burn completed ok. Re-instated stop marker......burn failed
Am I missing something on the purpose of the stop marker?
There was nothing obviously wrong with the project, although I will admit that I am new to PRE but am not a complete novice to video editing.
The encoding process of the menu's (both passes) went ok, and it wasn't until it got to the "encoding media" phase that the error message appeared.
It would certainly seem that more illuminating error reporting would be beneficial in this case, but it would also seem to be worth trying changes to the menus or markers to see if that fixes the error message.

PE8 Device Error

PE8. I have been burning DVDs this week but the current video stops prematurely and the message, "Device Error - the target device isn't suitable for use." I have been using the same media all week. What is wrong?

Graeme
On what computer operating system are you running Premiere Elements 8?
a. Are you running program as 8.0.1 Update?
b. Do you have the automatic Background Rendering and AutoAnalzyer options disabled?
Let us explore
1. Where are the scratch disks pointed and how much free space is at the hard drive save location(s)?
(See Edit Menu/Preferences/Scratch Disks).
2. How much free hard drive space does your computer have, and how much installed/available RAM
does your computer have?
3. Have you placed stop markers in your Timeline content? If so, do you have one at the end of the last item
on that Timeline?
4. If you cannot burn to disc, can you burn to Folder (4.7 GB)? Please give that a try for troubleshooting purposes only.
Although that can give you a quick workaround coupled with ImgBurn, I would prefer to see you work through the burn to
disc issue.
Let us start here and then we can discuss this further in the morning.

Unknown Device Error (0x0C, 0x00.) When trying to Burn

The past few days i've run into problems trying to burn from my Mac Book Pro.
In DVD Studio pro i get the " Unknown Device Error (0x0C, 0x00.)" when I try to burn from the burning on the computer.
I even tried burning from an external Lacie drive and I get the "Unknown Device Error (0x30, 0x05.)
I've cleared up hard drive space i have 5 gigs free. And I've tried restarting many times. I haven't run into problems like this before.

Hi
That can be caused by bad quality media. Read here about * about quality media * and try allways to use first quality group.
Besides that, DVDSP is not the best burning software at all. My prefered workflow is * Creating Disc Image in DVDSP * and burning it with Toast or Disk Utility.
Hope that helps !

Why Am I Getting The "Insufficient Space On Device" Message When There's More Than Enough Space?

I have the HTC Droid Incredible 4G LTE (ICS/4.0). It has 3.63 GB phone storage remaining, and the sd card has 7.35 GB remaining. Forget the sd card. How can my phone, or any phone for that matter, get the error message of "insufficient space on device" when there's more than enough space on the device? Thank you in advance.

Turn off your phone.
Hold power - and volume up I believe It might be down.
From there you can select recovery and then hold vilume up and tap power to open the menu.
There should be an option there to clear system cache.

Conflicting device error for keyboard and touch pad on thinkpad laptop

Hello,
IBM Thinkpad T43
1875
Windows XP (SP3)
Keyboard and touch pad completely do not work in Windows.
They do work in BIOS.
Tried connecting external USB keyboard. They also does not work
Getting Conflicting Device error in Device Manager for keyboard and touch pad
exclamation point is on the keyboard device.
getting Error Code 10 on keyboard.
I cant go to a prior restore point. That does not work.
tried uninstalling them, that didn't work either.
can't change auto configuration...it is grayed out.
Please help.
What can I do?

This is really strange I must say...
But you say you are using the same drivers for both 32-bit and 64-bit, this shouldn't affect the PE-part, but make sure you are using the correct drivers 64-bit for x64 OS and 32-bit for x86 :)
If you make a bootable memmory stick from the 32-bit deployment share, does it work then or is it the same problem?
Could it be as easy that the deployment share isn't updated?
//Andreas
Andreas Molin | Site: www.guidestomicrosoft.com | Twitter: andreas_molin
I also said that nothing's missing so, I thought it implies that only correct drivers are there.
I filter out all unwanted versions from both deployment shares to save on disk space.
Deployment Share have been refreshed several times with refreshing PE images too.
Mem-stick for 32-bit version works fine - keyboard and touch-pad work in it.

DVD Burn problem. "Device error - the target device isn't suitable for use"

Hello everyone,
I initially had a lot of problems with PE8. However the nVidia driver update solved most of them.
Just thought it was important to report success as well as failure!
However one problem remains. I get the following error at the 96% mark while burning. "Device error - the target device isn't suitable for use". It is always at the 96% mark and the program is "compiling [something]" when this happens.
Having searched this site I notice that user rgferg posted a similar problem 13 days ago but was redirected to repost in a different place, but never did.
I have tried to burn a 1hr clip 4 times and every time I have selected the slower burn speed (8MB/s) as has been suggested. It seems that inferior media is a culprit, so I have bought some [quality] Verbatim DVD-R media to try in my Phillips SATA optical drive. I am sceptical this will work, but open minded nonetheless. I will give it a whirl when my computer has stopped capturing the VHS I am working on.
Each time the burn failed the disk was automatically ejected and the burn process had actually started and progressed perhaps ~40% or so.
This indicates to me that it is a drive sharing issue, rather than a media issue. Somewhere on this forum it suggests that I go through a 20+ step process and delete/disable every piece of software that can compete with Premiere among other things. IF I do this what do I burn with outside of Adobe? Do I have to get imgburn or whatever it was called? What if I like Nero? Nero 6 has worked great for me for 3 years.
So given I am willing to uninstall my old optical drive burning software, who out there can recommened commercial software that for them creates a painless Adobe burning experience with no errors or conflicts? Perhaps there is another solution that I did not see on this forum?
I am running Windows XP SP3. I have the latest nVidia drivers for my SLI GeForce 7600 GS cards. I have 3 monitors. RAID 0 SATA, 2GB RAM, Athlon X2 5400.
Justin.

OK been working through the list of 20 things Adobe recommends to fix DVD burn error. No luck yet:
system meets minimum requirements
Project size does not exceed disk capacity
successfully burned project to DVD folder -thus skip to step 8.
8. Using new blank media for burning
9. Try different media and DVD burners. Bought Verbatim DVD-R. Don't have another DVD burner. Adobe's supported burner list is VERY short, so of course mine is not on it.
10. Uninstalled Nero 6. Did NOT uninstall Acronis True Image workstation or Lightscribe. These do not access the drive unless I say so!
11. Have not yet disabled startup items and services. This will take a lot of work and will leave to last. Deactivated Spybot thus far.....
12. Disabled IMAPI CD burning COM
13. DMA if available already set. Haven't set this in BIOS yet. I already think it is, but will check next boot.
14. Updated DVD firmware
15. Already updated nVidia drivers
16. Don't have any other DVD drives to disconnect.
17. MPEG workaround. Will resort to if required.
18. Disable Autoplay? XP only has "prompt me each time to choose an action". I have set this for ALL file types.
19. Have NOT refreshed the DVD drivers in the registry. This step involves uninstalling PE8. Will leave this as last resort.
20. Visit forums to see if other have the same problem. Hi guys
So still working through some of the items above.
Can anyone direct me to advice on how to write the encoded files sent to the hard drive, or the VOB files that PE8 failed to burn to a disk? Will the former work with DVD menus?
What a process.
Stay tuned.
Justin.

HP LaserJet Pro 200 color MFP M276 - new - Device error and Cleaning cycle issues

HP LaserJet Pro 200 color MFP M276 - this is a new printer a friend purchased at Staples. It connects WiFi okay and prints when prompted to but it then does a "Cleaning" cycle after every print job. It also displays "Device Error" at the same time. It has been powercycled as instructed and the error continues to reappear and the "Cleaning" cycle continues as well after each and every print job. My friend paid Staples to set up this printer to a new Acer Laptop and D-Link router he also purchased before he brought them home. He was told everything works fine .. they lied .. Laptop and router have no issues .. just the printer. The Laptop sees the printer okay and software is installed without issue. Any ideas why the "Device Error" and "Cleaning" cycle after every print job is happening? He is on the verge of taking the whole outfit back as Staples has not assisted him and instead directed him to download the manuals from HP. Any suggestions are appreciated

Have you tried a hard reset on it? I know you said you power cycled it, but a hard reset is sometimes different than what some people consider a power cycle.
Follow these steps to perform a hard reset on the printer.
1. Press the Power button to turn on the product.
2. With the product turned on, disconnect the power cord from the rear of the product.
3. Unplug the power cord from the wall outlet.
4. Wait at least 15 seconds.
5. Plug the power cord back into the wall outlet.
6. Reconnect the power cord to the rear of the product.
7. If the product does not turn on by itself, press the power button to turn it on.
Try that out and let me know if it helps.
Best of luck,
Kyle

NO OUTPUT DEVICE ERROR

Hi Guys Yesterday i reinstalled os x and my audio was working properly.....
But from today morning i got no output device error.....it also doesnot work in headphones.... someone do help...thank u....

There are many possible causes for this issue. Take each of the following steps that you haven't already tried. Back up all data before making any changes.
1. Start with the steps recommended in this support article. Don't skip any of the steps. It's the starting point for further efforts to solve the problem.
2. Run Software Update and make sure you have a fully up-to-date installation of OS X.
3. If you've installed an application called "Memory Clean" or any other third-party software that is supposed to "clean" or "purge" memory automatically, remove it according to the developer's instructions and restart. You should do that even if the software is not causing the problem, because it's useless.
4. Other third-party software that has been reported to interfere with sound output includes "Boom" and "Samsung Kies." If applicable, uninstall according to the developer's instructions (not by dragging something to the Trash.)
5. If an AirPlay device is selected for sound output from iTunes (or from other applications via third-party software such as "Airfoil"), deselect it.
6. Launch the application "Audio MIDI Setup" by entering the first few letters of its name in a Spotlight search and selecting it in the results (it should be at the top.) Select Built-in Output from the list on the left. If the Mute boxes are checked, uncheck them.
7. If a red light is coming from the audio-out port, the internal switch is stuck in the position for digital output. You may be able to free it by inserting and removing a mini-stereo jack of the proper size. Inserting any kind of tool in the port may cause damage that won't be covered by your warranty.
If there's no red light, the switch may still be stuck in the headphone position. Try to free it the same way.
8. Disconnect all wired peripherals except keyboard and mouse, if applicable. If more than one display is connected, disconnect all extra ones. Restart and test.
9. If you have a MacBook Air, turn off Bluetooth and restart.
10. Start up in safe mode. Don't log in; just restart as usual when the login screen appears. When you do, make sure the words "Safe Boot" do not appear in the login screen. If they do, the system is still in safe mode and sound won't work.
11. Reset the NVRAM.
12. Reset the SMC.
13. Triple-click anywhere in the line below on this page to select it:
/Library/Preferences/Audio
Right-click or control-click the highlighted line and select
Services ▹ Reveal in Finder (or just Reveal)
from the contextual menu.* A folder should open with an item selected. Move the selected item to the Trash. You may be prompted for your administrator login password. Restart the computer and empty the Trash. Recreate your settings in the Sound preference pane.
*If you don't see the contextual menu item, copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C. In the Finder, select
Go ▹ Go to Folder...
from the menu bar and paste into the box that opens by pressing command-V. You won't see what you pasted because a line break is included. Press return.
14. Reinstall OS X after backing up all data.
15. Make a "Genius" appointment at an Apple Store.

I/o device error when trying to use windows 7 backup to an external hard drive

I have a Windows 7 operating system. The computer was running very slowly so I used the systems diagnostics at startup and received short DST failed with a failure id of 6C2NXD-53Q713-XD002J-60RL03 for the hard disk test, the start up test, the
run-in test. Each test showed memory test passed and smart check passed. In researching the error it states that my hard drive is failing or perhaps some program is causing the error. I tried removing some programs I thought may be the issue.
Didn't work.
I have tried using the Windows 7 backup but the backup reached about 67% then states backup not completed i/o device error. I am trying to back up my files to a brand new Toshiba USB 3.0 & 2.0 external hard drive with 1.0 TB/To.
I have gone to start then computer and it shows the device. It also shows some files on it. The backup fails when it it trying to do a system image as far as I can tell by reading the progress details. The Toshiba device says that it is
working fine and is already formatted to NTFS.
What else should I check or do? My computer is also now popping up with a window telling me a backup is needed before the hard drive fails. It pops up with this message at the same time I am trying to do the backup (the backup is already processing).
Thank you

Hi,
Have you performed a disk check on your PC? More details, please check here:
How to Run Disk Check in Windows 7
Regarding the i/o device error, have you received any specific error IDs like
0x8007045D?
In addition, please also take a verify to see if the external disk is Advanced Format Disks(Some types may not compatible with Windows 7):
For example Run fsutil fsinfo ntfsinfo f:
to check the
bytes per physical sector
of the external disk drive.
More information, please see:
An update that improves the compatibility of Windows 7 and Windows Server 2008 R2 with Advanced Format Disks is available
Hope this may help,
Best regards
Michael
