Not enough temporary storage space on disk

I'm new to Access.  I've imported some tables from a co-worker, who cannot help troubleshoot this issue.
When I run a query, I get the error "Query cannot be completed.  Either the size of the query result is larger than the maximum size of the database or there is not enough temporary storage space on the disk to store the completed result."
I've compacted the database.
I've searched online about how to increase the storage space on the disk.
Unsure what to do next

Hi,
Which Access version do you use? The issue might be related to some reasons.
1. Access database has its max size (2GB). While running a query it often needs temporary storage. It means that the normal size plus the temp size hits the 2GB file size limit of Access.
2. Caused by the query, any non-trivial query or operation can use a larger amount of temporary space.
3. Caused by the database, the column name in database is not the same of the output in the transformation.
Thus, we may try:
 1. Using SQL Server 2008 Express as back-end database
 2. Splitting your database into front-end and back-end - due to the size eventually multiple back-end files- and using linked tables.

  • "Cannot Download - There is not enough available storage space."

    When attempting to update apps, I receive an error message
    "Cannot Download - There is not enough available storage space."
    When I Go to settings, there is 10.6 GB available
    What is the deal?
    Thanks in advance

    First, try a system reset.  It cures many ills and it's quick, easy and harmless...
    Hold down the on/off switch and the Home button simultaneously until you see the Apple logo.  Ignore the "Slide to power off" text if it appears.  You will not lose any apps, data, music, movies, settings, etc.
    If the Reset doesn't work, try a Restore.  Note that it's nowhere near as quick as a Reset.  It could take well over an hour!  Connect via cable to the computer that you use for sync.  From iTunes, select the iPad/iPod and then select the Summary tab.  Follow directions for Restore and be sure to say "yes" to the backup.  You will be warned that all data (apps, music, movies, etc.) will be erased but, as the Restore finishes, you will be asked if you wish the contents of the backup to be copied to the iPad/iPod.  Again, say "yes."
    At the end of the basic Restore, you will be asked if you wish to sync the iPad/iPod.  As before, say "yes."  Note that that sync selection will disappear and the Restore will end if you do not respond within a reasonable time.  If that happens, only the apps that are part of the IOS will appear on your device.  Corrective action is simple -  choose manual "Sync" from the bottom right of iTunes.
    If you're unable to do the Restore, go into Recovery Mode per the instructions here.

  • Not enough free storage space for ios update

    My wife's iPad Air MD786LL/A with 32GB. Running iOS 8.0.2. I bought it for her last year for her birthday to replace her old iPad. She won't give up the old iPad. I keep her iPad Air up to date from time-to-time but when I tried to update the iOS, it said there was not enough free storage space (requires 2.4GB and the iPad Air only has 1.8GB). She also has a MacBook Air running Yosemite and an iPhone 4S on iOS 8.2. The old iPad runs iOS 7 and won't do the multi-device sync with MBA and iPhone (which is why I was trying move her to the  more modern iOS). I need to free up some space on iPad Air.
    Songs: 278
    Videos: 40
    Photos: 7,695
    Apps: 50
    I note that Settings>General>About does not list Books in the list of things on the iPad Air. Why is this?
    Everything syncs to iCloud.
    Q: can I delete photos on the iPad Air without removing them from her MacBook Air or iPhone?
    I note that the iCloud Photos is still Beta. When I went to turn that on, it said that the 7,695 photos would be removed from the other devices. I did not proceed.
    Q: How does one move a book back to the cloud after it has been read? This should free up space.

    See: Update the iOS software on your iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch - Apple Support
    Scroll down to "Update your device using iTunes" and follow those steps.

  • TS4036 my ipad is frozen when i turn it on it tells me that it cannot be backed up because not enough icloud storage space. how do i unlock

    My ipad had been telling me that there is not enough storage space on the icloud so i deleted some apps. but I tried turning on today and it seems to be frozen and that same message comes up. When i try to click to close or settings options it does not do anything it seems to be frozen. How do I unfreeze or unlock?

    Try reset iPad
    Hold down the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears
    Note: Data will not be affected.

  • TS4036 my ipad is frozen-it says the ipad cannot be backed up because there is not enough icloud storage space.  It prompts you to manage your settings but it is completely frozen and won't respond when you hit "close" or "settings"

    My ipad froze after the icloud attempted a backup and there isn't enough storage space.  It will not respond when I click "close" or "settings" to monitor my icloud storage.  Any suggestions?

    Try reset iPad

  • Blu-ray Error: "not enough fre storage". Code:"25", Note "Not enough space on media"

    I have a project a  Encore CS6 V6.0.1.013 for MAC.
    I tryng export do Blu-ray Disc, but ireceved this error message
    Blu-ray Error: "not enough fre storage". Code:"25", Note "Not enough space on media"
    But at "Disc Info" i have 14.71mb free

    My longer notes on this error:
    The most common workaround for this is to build to a folder and burn with ImgBurn (for PC) or toast (for Mac).
    Searches show that there has not been success in many situations. I do not believe that it is one problem.
    I have generally believed that the error refers to temporary storage on the hard drive. And users underestimate the amount of temporary hard disk drive space used. For bluray it is about twice the disk or more.
    Some users experience this error when they are creating dual layer BD disks, and a layer is more than 25G. Each video/layer must fit on one side.
    And some users successfully burn their disk by re-encoding to a lower bitrate (a 25G BD disk does not hold 25G). Encore uses padding to predict the size on disk (e.g. add 10% to the amount of space it predicts that build will use), and it can be wrong.
    Always good to "run as administrator, though I don't know that ever fixed this issue if someone wasn't.
    For CS4 there was a required update for a Roxio component. I believed this was a temporary problem due to the combination of Win7 and Encore CS4, but users on newer OS and Encore have reported resolution of problems after installing the patch.

    Now I first thought to check my hard drive but I have plently of space. Next I noticed that encore CS3 was trying to make an image that is 340GB in size!!! Why would it do that? My project only has 4 assets. HELP this is going from bad to worse.

  • I'm try to buy a movie from iTunes with my I pad 3 and it tells me there is not enough local storage and when I go to my local storage there is a lot on free storage I also restarted my ipad but still the same prob what do I do?

    5GB is typically not enough space to download a movie.  Often, movies take from 3 - 5 GB to begin with.  The only option you have is to delete more things from your iPad.  You can remove unused Apps, pictures, music, text message (messages with pictures can take up a lot of space), email messages, books, magazines etc.

  • IPod touch 4 gives message "Cannot Download" "there is not enough available storage to download...You can manage your storage in settings." when trying to update or install one but not all apps. I have more storage than the app takes. Can u help?

    iPod touch 4 gives message "Cannot Download" "there is not enough available storage to download...You can manage your storage in settings." when trying to update or install one of the apps, but not other apps.  I have more space available than needed for the app.  What do I need to do to fix this problem?  Do I need to completely reset this device as new and, if so, how should I do that? 

    You need to delete some item (apps, music, photos etc) from the iPod,.However, sometime files get corrupt. To determine that connect the iPod to your computer and click on the iPod under Devices in iTunes. How much storage is used by the "other" category. If over 1 1/2 GB that indicates corrupted files.
    To get the "other" down to normal value you need to restore your iPod usually restoring from backup works but sometimes restoring to factory settings.new iPod is required./

  • IBooks books "Cannot Download" because "there is not enough available storage to download _______."

    Before I begin, here are the details of my particular iPad:
    Build Version: 10B329
    iOS 6.1.3
    16 BG iPad 2 (although it says that the capacity is 13.84 GB)
    It has never been damaged nor has it experienced any water damage. It runs very well.
    My issue: I am trying to download the ibook entitled Algebra 1 (Common Core Edition by Pearson) from the iBook Store. The ibook itself is only 2.46 GB large. After purchasing and upon downloading, however, I run into an issue. The book cover is placed on my iBooks bookshelf with the "New" ribbon on the upper-right. It then begins to download and, shortly after, I receive the following error message:
    Cannot Download
    There is not enough available storage to download "Algebra 1". You can manage your storage in Settings.
    - Cancel
    - Settings
    Having had issues with iBooks in the past, I thought this was just another glitch. But, in order to rule out any uncertainty, I checked my storage capacity anyways. On my first download, I am positive I had enough space on my iPad (although I can't remember how much). I had recently freed up my iPad by deleting videos and other apps. After doing all of that, I tapped the cover of the ibook again to initiate the downloading process. With more room, I was certain it would work, but then I received the same error message.
    After that, I attempted to redownload the ibook after having tried each of the following techniques:
    - Turned off my iPad completely with iBooks still installed
    - Turned off my iPad completely with iBooks uninstalled, and then reinstalled it after turning the iPad back on
    - Deleting the ibook from iBooks, delete the iBooks app, completely turning off the iPad, and then redownloading everything after turning the iPad back on
    - Delete other ibooks
    - Transferring all of my bought ibooks to my iTunes on my computer (this technique actually worked for another on of my ibooks, but not for this one...)
    - Sign out of my iTunes & App Stores account and then signing back in
    - Turning ON the "Books" Automatic Downloads option
    The only thing I think I haven't done is restore my iPad... Which I really do not want to do. Having to redownload all of those apps is a painstakingly long process...
    Even now I have enough space to download it and it still gives me the same error message. My currect space specs are below:
    Storage
    4.8 GB Available     9.1 GB Used     (Most of this is from iBooks as you can see)
    iBooks               5.7 GB
    Japanese          221 MB   
    Facebook          114 MB
    Penultimate       102 MB
    etc......
    iCloud
    Total Storage     5.0 GB
    Available           5.0 GB
    etc......
    I have deleted numerous apps and media on my iPad to make more room. I have read on other Apple Support threads that iDevices need space in order to move files around and such. I think 4.8 GB should be enough for this! Especially for an ibook that's only 2.46 GB large!!! This is really frustrating and I really need this ibook!!!! If someone could give me some other tips and tricks, that would be great. I really don't want to have to restore my iPad though... If it comes down to that, I guess I have no choice.
    Another detail I left out is a popup window that comes up just before the error message that reads:
    Downloading Item
    When this item is finished downloading, it will be available in your library.
    - OK
    I'm not sure it's related to the issue, but I decided to put it out there anyway so that this problem can be as detailed as possible.
    Thanks for all of the support!

    Actually, you don't have the same problem at all. The OP had excessive "Other" taking up space, leaving no space to download additional books.
    You seem to be having a problem with a specific file. If I were you, I'd start my own thread with a subject line that describes your issue. You're going to get better answers that way than by piggybacking on an old thread.
    Yes, you should still be able to load iBooks by syncing with iTunes. There may be a problem with the file itself. Are you able to add other books? If so, contact the iTunes Store to see if they can help you with this particular book.
    Best of luck.

  • My iPad and iPhone4s both state "NOT ENOUGH STORAGE" and can't backup due to not enough iCloud storage available in the cloud.  I have sync my phone but I still get the msg - I will sync the iPad as well - both devices receive my mail as well as Acer pc.?

      I have sync my phone to my pc using itunes, but I still get the msg on the phone - could it be that the ipad and phone both receive the same mail?  I did go into Settings - icloud - and shut off Mail on phone - I will sync the iPad as well - both devices receive my mail as well as Acer pc.?  thank you -

    Not having enough storage in your iCloud account isn't caused by using your iCloud email account on your device.  It may be caused by having lots of email in your account though.
    Go to Settings>iCloud>Storage & Backup>Manage Storage to see what is taking up the space in your account.

    Well, if you don't have enough space, then there's nothing wrong, right?
    You can check available space under Settings> General> About or by plugging it into iTunes and looking at the color-coded bar.

  • Cannot copy export_full: not enough server storage is available to process

    Hello everyone!
    We are mounting a 3node RAC on Windows 2003 x64.
    The source database is 81741 on Windows 2000.
    When we try to copy the dump file - around 56GB - it fails after some time with error:
    "Cannot copy export_full: not enough server storage is available to process this command".
    Some important details: destination drive is OCFS and has more than sufficient space.
    Both 4 servers are in the same network, in the same building.
    We copy this same dump file every night to a backup server, what makes us think the problem is in the OCFS drive.

Free space reported on a ocfs volume does not imply that all that space is usable. Part of the problem is how the ocfs file system has been configured (the defaults may not suffice for a large file system, or a file system that will contain many files).
    A while back we had a similar problem and that was addressed in changing the ocfs defaults used for creating the file system. Suggest that you read up on ocfs2 block and cluster sizes and rethink the configuration of that ocfs volume (unfortunately one has to re-create the file system to apply block and cluster size changes). Details are in the [OCFS2 User Guide|http://oss.oracle.com/projects/ocfs2/dist/documentation/ocfs2_users_guide.pdf].

    Have you tried a reset ? Press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider if it appears), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.
