Not enough disk space (when I do have nough?)

Hello everyone,
Can anyone help me with the newest error message that I've been getting with iweb that tells me that I don't have enough space on my idisk? I have 351 megs available and couldn't be more frustrated when it takes an hour or so to publish my site only to finish with this bogus error message.
Thanks for any help or suggestions.

Stephen -- I did a search on "space idisk disk publish" (without the quotes) and amongst the many threads found this one from May of this year:
http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=4553372&#4553372
which concludes:
"Just thought I'd chime in and let everyone know that my problem has been fixed.
I finally heard back from .Mac support and they said that the problem was the result of my iDisk calculating sizes of my files incorrectly. They said that they fixed the problem AND on top of that, they were giving me an extra 200Mb of space that I can keep as long as I renew my .Mac account.
So, my advice is that if you are consistently getting this error - write the .Mac support team and get them to take a look at your account."

"Not enough disk space" when there seems to be

I'm a newbie to iDVD and iMovie (my last Mac was a Performa 6360--still using it for the family budget) and got my daughter a MacBook as a graduation gift. She is using it to combine movie inputs from a wedding/reception that come from digital camreas and a couple of video cameras. We went to Flip4Mac to get the necessary features to import .wmv files (only way we could download one of the vidoe cameras).
Issue: When she tries to import vidoes already on her computer, she gets: "The file could not be imported: There is not enough disk space to import Macintosh HD/Users/julie/pictures/iPhoto Library/Originals/2007/Roll8/CIMG1442.AVI"
Basically the question is how to get more room on her disk to import and to save? She seems to only be able to Save--she can't Save Project as an option because it says she doesn't have enough disk space (she's deleted the trash). Help says you need to have more than 400mb of free space or it gets difficult but the indicator shows 28.8GB free space left...so there seems to be some kind of disconnect?? (Or maybe we're talking apples and oranges?)
On top of that, she also gets the same error message when she tries to burn the project onto a disk???
I went through the first 5 pages of the forum and couldn't see a similar problem, but then I may have not known what to look for?
Any help would be greatly appreciated...she's trying to give the DVD as a Wedding gift--somewhat belated.

"Not enough disk space" when there seems to be (+ rapid memory consumption)

[Note: I originally posted this in the iDVD section, but due to an answer I got there to another question and further conversations with my daughter, figured out this is probably an iMovie question?]
I'm a newbie to iDVD and iMovie and Forums (my last Mac was a Performa 6360--still using it for the family budget). I got my daughter a MacBook as a graduation gift. She is using it to combine movie inputs from a wedding/reception that come from digital camreas and a couple of video cameras. We went to Flip4Mac to get the necessary software/features to import .wmv files (only way we could download one of the video cameras was by going from PC to Mac--can't remember if it was a Sony or Canon).
Issue: When she tries to import vidoes into iMovie HD 6.0.3 which have already been transferred to her computer, she gets: "The file could not be imported: There is not enough disk space to import Macintosh HD/Users/julie/pictures/iPhoto Library/Originals/2007/Roll8/CIMG1442.AVI" [She says this is about a 4 min. clip.]

[Even more disturbing, just in the last couple of days with only a little time spent on the computer, the 28.8 GB has dropped to 2.3GB--obviously there is something she is doing that she is not aware of or shouldn't be doing that is consuming memory at a rapid pace.] On top of that, she also gets the same error message when she tries to burn the project onto a disk using iDVD???

Hello Karstn Schluter,
This is fm's daughter who is havin ghte difficulites. at the end you tell me to try to answer 1-8 so i will try.
1- how can you tell if the avi is containing divx? or not?? do I need to just keep this in mind when importing these files
2- I have not brought in an external drive. I did try making my laptop computer a harddrive so I could import my imovie poject to my eMAC at one point, but it was not allowing me to do that either. Because I had to have it in DVD form or something
3- No I did not segment the internal drive....sorry How do you do that??? Right now I am trying to find out what is taking up all the memory and Hard Disk Drive space....i do not know how to do that either....Do you know how???
4-Yes I know flip4mac is for wmv....I guess what that question was emplying was that I also have wmv files that I am trying to import to imovieHD and that is not working either...I can get my avi to get into imovieHD, but not my wmv. files
5-THank you for the tip with the trash then another question to this one how do you delet projects that are taking up memory that are no longer in use?
6-Thank you for the tip...so then ignore the not enough disk space.....how can you alter the disk space so that you can save the project under save project as and not just save project?
7- Sorry my dad was miss informed I cannot import the wmv. files to imovie and I cannot import imovie to iDVD I only have transferred one and then all of the other files are not seen as movies so I can not import them?? Does that make since
8- When we were useing the Sony Camera originally we could not import the video to the MAC because it did not have the correct firewire cable and it would not been read onto the MAC computer. So, we have to buy the flip4mac equipment so that I would be able ot download the inoformation to the computer by a wmv.file dvd so we are having difficulites trying to import that file.
I hope these answers clear up the question a little bit more and sorry that your answers brought out more questions. Thank you very much for helping me. I was using a different program in my college class so changing to imovie and idvd has been a huge struggle for me. Thank you once again.

Error not enough disk space when upgrading to SAP B1 8.8 PL14

Hi,
I'm trying to do a test upgrade for a customer running SAP B1 2007.
When running the upgrade wizard for SAP B1 8.8 PL14 I'm having an issue with not enough diskspace for the backup.
In the help file it's says that you need about 3 times your company database and enough room for common and other upgrade files.
The company database is about 35GB
Tried putting it on a network drive with around 2000GB and it told me that there was not enough disk space...
Thought it had something to do with the network drive so I added a local disk with 400GB, still it tells me that there is not enough disk space, what to do?
I must also point out that I'm running this on a virtual server.
Thank you
BR,
Anders

HI Anders,
You may try this,
1. Take a back up of the db.
2. Go to Sql and detach the database.
3. Paste it in a drive with at least 5 times the space of your database (175 gb in your case.)
4. Go To sql, attach the database with the new location in new drive.
5. Perform upgrade.
6. Once the db is upgraded, you may take a back up and follow steps 1 to 4 to bring it back to the original destination. Hope this helps.
Thanks,
Joseph

I bought a game that has 16.66 GB and my computer has 30 GB free, however when I try to install it it says there is not enough disk space available.

Whenever I try to install the game it says there is not enough disk space available. I have tried to delete things that take up space but it did not help.
Game:Napoleon Total War

30GB's free disk space is not enough. If you don't free up storage space soon, your Mac may not boot which is why you see the, "not enough disk space available" dialog.
Control click the MacintoshHD icon on your desktop or open the Finder, right or control click startup disk in the Sidebar on the left then click Get Info.
You'll see Available and Capacity. Make sure there's at least 15% available disk space.

"Not enough disk space" error using Burn

I'm using a brand new Macbook Pro and trying to burn a 60-minute CD (.wav files) using the Burn app. but it keeps telling me there's not enough disk space when i have over 220 GB. can anyone help fix this or point me to a Burn guide? i couldn't seem to find one. thank you for your time!
-Mike

Hi PGVPGV,
It is not altogether clear to me which process you are following here.
To duplicate a CD using Disk Utility's "Burn" process:
1) Open Disk Utility, insert the CD or DVD disc in the optical drive, and select it in the list at the left.
2) Choose File > New > “Disk Image from {disc name}.”
3) Type a name for the disk image.
4) Choose “compressed” or “read-only” from the Image Format pop-up menu.
5) Choose “compressed” to create a smaller disk image. Choose “read-only” to create a disk image that’s quicker to create and open.
6)Click Save.
7) After Disk Utility creates the disk image, eject the original CD or DVD.
8) Select the disk image in the list at the left, and choose Images > Burn.
9) When the Burn Disc dialog appears, insert a blank CD or DVD, and then click Burn.
(The above is pretty much straight from the Disk Utility Help files)
It sounds to me as if you may be using an incorrect disk image format at the image creation stage.
Just to be clear, too, is this an audio CD that you are trying to copy , or a data CD full of Wav files?
Cheers
Rod

FCP X version 10.1.1. When Sharing to DVD I get the following alert " There was an error burning your discd. Not enough Disk Space in Target Folder" I have 700GB   free. Where is this target folder located? how can I fix this problem? not space prob

Sharing to DVD I get the following alert " There was an error burning your disc. Not enough Disk Space in Target Folder" I have 700GB   free. Where is this target folder located? How can I fix this problem? This is definitely not a space problem.
Since starting with FCP X, there has been tons of issues, now that the product actually works with the exception above, makes it impossible to share the production. Has Apple fixed this problem. is there a knowledge base article on this?
On another note, One reason I have not purchased support on FCP X is because you sold a product that never worked for almost an entire year or more.   Now I can finally finish my project, I cannot share it.....Really. This has to be fixed now, I am loosing money as I typed this.
Regards,
Rob Harris

Just curious, why would repairing permissions, rebooting ( rebooted 2 times already today) or creating a new user possibly fix this.
I cannot create a new user, that is way too much work. I will repair permissions again, I repaired permissions just a few days ago. Then I will reboot, login and turn off App Nap and rerun the Share DVD.
There must be something seriously wrong with the OS if your are suggesting creating another user.   WOW!

After clean install of Snow Leopard, Time Machine did not restore all files. When I try to restore these files I get "Not enough disk space" error. What do I need to do to get these important files back onto my Mac from my external hard drive??

For what the Apple Store's charge you can buy almost buy a new computer.
Just for giggles I brought my old laptop in for a drive upgrade and asked, they wanted $600 for a drive that only cost $120 at the time and it was a slow 5,400 RPM drive. The new Mac's of a similar make were going for $1000.
I did the drive replacement myself, got a faster drive of better quality for $300 instead.
Then another time I asked for a RAM upgrade from 4GB to 8GB, they wanted to charge $400 + $35 for the labor.
The same RAM is on Crucial.com for $90 and all I need is a 00 micro phillips screwdriver.
So you see what's going on here.
I think what you should do, if your out of warranty/AppleCare, is to call up the local PC tech guy who also does Mac's and have them fix you right up.
They can offer more personalized care which you need. Clone your old drive to the new and everything.
With Apple they are overworked at the Genius Bar and just place roadblocks so you buy a new machine instead.
For instance, all new iMac's now have proprietary drive software installed on the hard drives for heat monitoring. So now the only choice a user has is to bring their iMac into a Apple Store for a very expensive drive upgrade, which a person then decides the money is better spent buying a new machine.

What does error message when trying to burn DVD from iDVD mean "not enough disk space to burn the remaining assets"

I created a DVD in idvd and now when trying to burn to DVD using external burner, I get the error message
"not enough disk space to encode the remaining assets". I am using a brand new blank DVD.
I have read the help info on computer but hasnt proved helpful.
Any suggestions?

iDVD requires a fair amount of disk space to carry out the encoding process; depending on your project, you may need to have over 25 GB free space on your startup hard drive. How much free space do you have?

I am getting the following message "safari could not download the file (440MB) because there is not enough disk space. disk utility says i have 249.8 GB of available disk space. any suggestions as to what is the problem would be appreciated

i am getting the following message "safari could not download the file (440 MB) because there is not enough disk space. please delete files or download to another disk." when i check system information it tells me i have 249.82 GB of disk space available. any suggestions as to what i can do to resolve this problem.

don
thanks for your suggestion. that is the same advice that i got from the geek squad at the local apple store.
i did what he instructed but it did not work. i have since called apple support twice regarding the problem. they had me start the computer in safe mode, going into the library and deleting a phlist file (i think) do a repair disk permissions, do a repair disk, empty the cache, and finally the last guy told me to unplug the computer from the wall socket and restart.
when i mentioned the advice you and the apple store guy gave me they sort of poo pooed it saying that was done when they did all this other stuff.
i am now waiting for the download to be completed to see if unplugging the computer had any effect.
thanks again for your kindness in answering my concern.

LR 5.5 upgrade. I only get the the 32 bit set up and an error when the 64 bit set up should be created. It says not enough disk space and no access to write. The disk space is ok and the 32 bit file was indeed created.

Hi Rob, Thanks for your input. The temp location is on the C drive with 228 GB free space. My other drives have 123 GB and 204 GB of free space. I can see how the 32 bit set up is perfectly extracted when it stops when coming to the 64 bit set up. I have done the exercise several times and also made new downloads. I am using Norton 360 and Malwarebytes anti-malware but the dowload from Adobe should be trusted.

Receiving a "There is not enough disk space available to install the product" error in App store while I clearly have enough space?

I am attempting to purchase Dues Ex: Human Revolution which requires 17GB to run, I currently have 27.34GB free.
Even though I have 10GB more than the required space I still get the "There is not enough disk space available to install the product"
Any ideas?

HI...
You need at the very least 15% free disk space. More if possible. Definitely not enough free space to install a 17GB app.
OSX Tips Where did my Disk Space go?
Freeing Up Hard Disk Space - Mac GuidesFreeing Up Hard Disk Space - Mac Guides
And make sure your Mac meets the app's minimum requirements which according to the App Store is Mac OS X 10.7.3 or later under Information right side of the App Store window.

Is there enough room on the target disk?
Can the target disk accept files over 2Gb?

Problem "There is not enough disk space ..." when transferring tracks back to compu

Hi All,?I am recovering from a massi've hard dri've failure so no lectures about backups for my library please. I am trying to transfer all of my mp3's back from my Zen Xtra 30GB to my computer. I am using Creative MediaSource and it worked for about 800 of them but now has stopped. Now any track will report an error "There is not enough disk space at the destination for this transfer". Checking my disk, I have 6GB of space left, so I am left in the dark as to how to fix this. I can't even get an individual track. Trying to troubleshoot this on my own, I've deleted my temp files but still no luck. Has anyone here has this problem? Better yet, does anyone have a solution?Thanks all!

and now it doesn't. 8GB free and a few more tracks to go.
