Not enough space on disk to restore !

can anyone help me ?
I had some troubles with my mac so I made an image for the HD and every thing went fine and now when I want to restore it ,it says
Not enough space on /dev/disk0s2 to restore what should I do !!?

I may be too late now (but for sake of knowing the next time):
Before you make an image, re-size the source partition to a size smaller than the new (future) destination.
   - click on the source partition,
   - go to the Partition tab at the top,
   - then grab the handle in the lower right of the Partition Layout graph and drag it upwards.
        The size of the partition will change, but the partition won't be erased.
- BE PATIENT - this can be as slow as defragmenting the drive! [guess]
        * Your computer will go into Sleep Mode every 10 mintues. Hit a modifier key - (SHIFT, CMD, CNTRL) -
          every 8 or 9 minutes to keep the computer from going into sleep mode.
        * Use your mouse to place the curser (every so often) in the progress bar to mark your progress.
Then make a new Image.
       * Remember to "Scan Image for Restore" (in the Image menu) before proceeding.
If its too late because the original partition is gone, try temporarily restoring your image to an external (as large or larger) drive. [CAUTION! Everything on that external drive will be replaced!!]
Then re-size and create a new image - to be restored on your intended destination.
        (Give this image a new name just in case)
IF YOU GET THE "Could not restore - resource busy" error:
   - First drage the destination partition (not the drive) into the destination field
   - THEN select the source image.

Not enough space on disk to restore a backup

Hello,
I must restore my iPhone from the backup that I have on my Windows7. It has 21gb, when I start to restore it, It requires 21gb of free space as well. I have only 13 left. Is there any solution? I cant free up more space on C:, I already cleared bin etc.

Ok, thanks. Is it possible to restore the backup from a different computer with enough space available ?

Not enough space on disk

Hello, I am a newbie here. I am asking some help for a vexing problem that I am having with my Blackberry 8320 Curve. I have a Windows XP Pro operating system, Blackberry desktop manager version 4.2.2.14, and roxio easy media creator version 9.
I open up the desktop manager, connect my PC and blackberry. It then says connected. I then go to media on both the blackberry and on the desktop manager.
I have an album that has been transferred to the roxio creator, and the songs are ishown n the top pane. I also have highlighted device memory and highlighted music folder.
When I highlight a song and press the copy down button, any music that is over 2 minutes in length refuses to copy completely into the music folder. It does start to copy, then stops and says with an error message: not enough space on disk. For heavens sake, I am not copying it to drive c, I am copying it to my blackberry! It seems I am doing most of this process right because 2 songs on the album less than 2 minutes in length have copied to my bb, but the rest over 2 minutes will not copy.
What in the world am I doing wrong?
Thanks!

If you are moving the music to your device memory, files over 2.9MB won't copy.
Put them on your Media Card.

Not enough space on disk error when I have enough space on disk

I'm trying to export a video to my external hard drive, which has plent of space. About halfway through the export, Premiere gives me a "not enough space on disk" error. My startup drive is getting pretty full, but still has a bit of memory and I'm not sure why I would need space there if the render is going the external.
Thanks for any help!

Macs can read NTFS volumes.
Maybe, but they can't write to them out of the box. And since external drives generally come empty, it's a pretty safe bet that the purchaser will want to write files to it. So, a lot of drive makers format as FAT32.
exFAT is a better file system than FAT32, especially for solid state media like P2 and SD cards. Using exFAT on those cards would allow large files (long continuous shots) and keep compatibility with Macs. Now, if only camera makers would issue firmware updates to allows exFAT formatted media...

DISM /capture-image: Not enough space on disk

Slow and sure WE8S drives me crazy. I just tried to capture as WE8S image using DISM which aborted somewhere at 20%. The logfile tells "There is not enogh space on disk", a few log messages later I see that this belongs to X:\ (the WinPE "RAM
disk"). While monitoring the process in a additional CMD windows I could see that X:\WINDOWS\TEMP gets filled up with WINxxx.TMP files (initially there are about 530MB free on X:).
I can specify a /ScrathDir, but I'm very interested in knowing about why CAPTURING an image requires so much space. Remember another thread from me where I have to move to an alternative system with enough RAM to setup the WE8S image. Now I have to move
to another system again that has additional drive for that damned WINxxx.tmp files?
I'm luckily in a situation where I have alternative HW to do that, but this might be a problem (for example, if the media to be captured if soldered to PCB). Are there other ways?

No, that is not my problem. That was just an assumption, this is a possible situation (this may happen to you and me in some future project..).
USB flash disk is an option, but UFDs usually have low performance. My solution was to put the CFast card into a system which has (fast) SSD, and instructed DISM to use the SSD as ScratchDir.
All after all I got everything working as expected, but I had to switch the machine for several times. This is very unusual - espicially the work-around required to make a "simple" backup.

Not enough space on device to restore from backup

not enough sapce on device to restore from back up

Iphoto '11 error message - not enough space on disk..

Really struggling with iphoto '11 - version 9.3.2
I keep getting the following error message: 'There may not be enough space on the disk containing your iPhoto library to import these photo'. I've already read and attemped some of the suggestions in the thread below - and nothing worked unfortunately.
https://discussions.apple.com/thread/2676958
For info, I originally set up iphoto as a disk image - to enabled shared viewing/editing between two users on the same mac. This has worked fine for the last two years, but obvioiusly running low on space as i've added photos.
I've already tried creating a new disk image with increased capacity, copied over the files, and directed iphoto to open this instead.. but not worked - getting same message.
Have also checked disk image format type - i'm using 'Mac OS Extended (Journaled)' which i believe is the right one ??
Any advice, much appreciated.
thanks,
Neil

Hi,
On the old one - only 7MB (hence I created a new one with more space).
I have photos using a total of 18.5 GB, the new disk image has a 40GB capacity. Still getting the same out of space error message though.

Encore CS3: not enough space in disk now, but yesterday was OK!

Yet, another problem with Encore CS3: now it refuses to compile the DVD folder because the project exceeds the disk capacity (DVD DL).
I can´t understand this: yesterday it said that I was exceeding the disk capacity but it compiled the DVD files anyway (and there was really a lot of free space left in the disk, the VIDEO_TS folder was still under 8 Gb).
The only thing I´ve changed since then are the compression settings of one clip, reducing its quality so in theory I should have even more free space than yesterday.
I´ve been using this software for years and had never so many problems as with this project.

Go back to yesterday! (Ha, ha!) (I suppose that's half serious: revert to original and use your old settings. But I wonder if this error will now occur even then.)
I've had good luck with opening CS3's in CS4. I wonder if the PC to Mac change would be an issue. Just copy it all so you have something to go back to.
One user had something like this happen because one timeline exceeded the size per side. (That may have been BD.)
I wish I listed all the reasons for this the last time.
This may have also happened because the C: drive fills up with cache files. Try clearing the media cache?

Not Enough Space for Restore?

Hello
I wish to help me iPhone 5 64G stolen
now I bought the iPhone5C 16G
If i restore from last backup
Not Enough Space on iPhone to Restore Backup!!!
sms and contcts and photos only i needd
I do not care apps anthor thing ..
so what is the solution

You'll need to extract your contacts/photos from your backup, using something like this:
http://www.iphonebackupextractor.com/
You can then sync that stuff to your phone. For SMS's, while you can extract them from your backup, there's no way to get them on your phone.

Sharepoint site error could not load or enough space on disk

Hi
I getting an error on sharepoint site find below , i cleaned up log files in c drive . i receving same error.
An error occurred during the processing of . Could not load file or assembly 'WhatsNew' or one of its dependencies. There is not enough space on the disk. (Exception from HRESULT: 0x80070070)
Anyhelp please.
Thanks,
kumar

Hi,
From your description, you encountered the issue when you load the SharePoint sites.
Check things below:
1. You can go to check ULS log to see the details or the cause of the issue. (The path of the ULS log: C:\Program Files\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\Web Server Extensions\14\LOGS).
2. You can move the temp folders to a different partition/disk, because when you load the SharePoint sites, there are some objects will be stored in the temp folders.
You can go to the properties of the server->Click on the advanced tab->Click
on environment variables->within the system variables section locate the TEMP and TMP variable and change them->Reboot the machine.
After these steps, you can check if the same issue will occur.
3. Reset the internal information service (IIS) manager to see if the same situation will appear.
4. After you clean up in C drive, you should restart the server.

You need the System DVDs that originally came w/the computer in order to troubleshoot. All Macs prior to & including ML came w/System DVDs.
You can get replacement System Install & Restore CD/DVDs from Apple's Customer Support - in the US, (800) 767-2775 - for a nominal S&H fee. You'll need to have the model and/or serial number of your Mac available.
If you're not in the US, you may need to go through the regional Apple Store that serves your location to find the contact number. Here's a list of links to all of those - http://store.apple.com/Catalog/US/Images/intlstoreroutingpage.html Another resource: International Support Phone #s.

HT4946 cannot find itunes backup on my PC (win xp). want to move over to external hard drive to restore from backup bc PC not enough space

i just restored my ipad2 to iOS 6.1.3 yesterday. i have been trying to restore from backup, but i keep getting error messages from itunes (running latest version of itunes) that says there is not enough space to save the backup on the computer. i have tried clearing up as much space on my PC (windows xp), but there is still not enough room. and ive tried disk cleanup on my computer and resetting the ipad and running it through recovery mode (as some articles sugggested it would help with restoring after failed attempts). i read on another question in the apple support discussions that someone just moved his whole backup folder into his external harddrive and then he was able to restore from backup.
the backup is definitely saved on my computer (itunes confirms that), and the backup folder is supposed to be here \Documents and Settings\(username)\Application Data\Apple Computer\MobileSync\Backup\, but im still not finding it with that file path. i get as far as "username" and then i dont see "application data" and so on. but when i try searching that file path in google chrome, i find it and i see it, but its strange that i cant find it in the "docs and settings" folder in my C drive.
please help! i just want to be able to move the backup folder to my external to restore from backup. thank you in advance!!

Thank you! I was able to find it. Im sorry, i have a few follow up questions. Does the iTunes have to be running from my external as well to do the restore from backup? And if so, how do I move iTunes to external and run it from there? Also, I just copied over the "backup" folder (last part of that file path to my external, is that enough, or did I have to copy it starting from the beginning (docs and settings and so forth)? Lastly, when I select restore from backup in iTunes, would it automatically know that it's the copy on my external to restore backup from? Or do I have to delete or do something with the original file path in my computer?
Thank you!

Hi,
You must have read this thread:
http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/9773a7c4-29a8-48ff-9d16-e1ca4c478610/excel-2013-microsoft-excel-can-not-open-or-save-anymore-documents-because-there-is-not-enough?forum=officesetupdeploy
To detail the steps, please do as I describe:
Important
This section, method, or task contains steps that tell you how to modify the registry. However, serious problems might occur if you modify the registry incorrectly. Therefore, make sure that you follow these steps carefully. For added protection, back up the
registry before you modify it. Then, you can restore the registry if a problem occurs. For more information about how to back up and restore the registry,
http://windows.microsoft.com/en-US/windows7/Back-up-the-registry
To open the Registry Editor, please press Win + R, type regedit in the blank box, press
Enter. / Or we can type regedit.exe in Windows 8.1 Search, you'll find it easily.
Now the Registry Editor is open.
Then we see the pane on left, expand the following path:
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\User Shell Folders
Then we can see a list on right, find Cache, right click on it, click
Modify..., under Value data, change the value to something like
C:\Windows\Temp, click OK.
Exit Registry Editor.
As for "You might also right click on the file with file explorer, choose Properties, then General tab and click on the Unblock button." Just find the file, right click on it, choose
Properties, under General tab, if you see a
Unblock button, click on it.
"Some of our customers found it sometimes a permission problem.
cmd => dcomcnfg" Do the following:
Press Win + R, type in cmd in the blank box, press
Enter.
In the new black-background window, type in dcomcnfg, press
Enter.
Then the Component Services window will pop up, on the left pane, expand
Component services -> Computes ->
My Computer -> Dcom config -> and select
Microsoft Excel Application, right click on it -> Properties ->
Identity tab -> Select The interactive user ->
OK.
I hope I've explained the steps clearly.
Good luck.
