Ps3 says not enough memory but its empty?

Have you deleted the Game Data? Your hard drive only has half of the available space free, which means something is still installed. The PS3 OS data should only take up a couple of gigabytes. Check movies, music, Game Data & Game saves and see if there is anything still lingering. Replacement hard drives are cheap enough, might be your best bet...

Some of you guys clearly aren't reading what is being said here either that or some of you remain blissfully unaware of how temperamental the ps3 actually is no wonder the guy who originally posted this question stopped replying, I'm having this same problem now try take this in, EVERYTHING ON THE PS3 HAS BEEN DELETED, this includes...
- Game patch data
- Gamesaves
- Downloaded games
- Uninstalled downloaded games
- Themes
- Other media (mp3, pictures)
- Other user accounts
- Bluray data
And has also been restored and reset, and I have also restored file system through the ps3 recovery system menu.
But still. I have just under 3000 MB out of 12 GB that's a fair amount of memory to be used up by what appears to be nothing. I understand you are able to load about 2 games with this but like the original poster I can't even load one game with out it telling me I have no memory. So wtf is up bros?
Also while trying to install beyond two souls it's says I need 200 MB free to install the game yet like I said I have just under 3000 MB. so clearly it has nothing to do with the actual memory and more to do with the actual ps3 being an expensive piece of ***** that breaks after a few months of using it when all you require it to do is things it was designed to do like... PLAY GAMES?
Just like everything else that costs 90% more than it initially cost to make.

  • New Ipod Nano - won't update "not enough space" but its empty!!

    My wife's iPod Nano is brand new (I have a Video iPod so iPods are not new to me!)
    I get the message that the iPod cannot be updated because library is too big etc....
    What I did:
    I reinstalled iTunes.
    Restored library and unticked all tracks.
    Downloaded updater and restored iPod Nano.
    Tried to update "only checked" tracks - didn't work. Restarted system - settings of "checked songs" were saved - got same message.
    Tried unchecking this and doing "only sleceted playlists" with a playlist of 208MB (iPod Nano model is 1Gb) - still got same message.
    Tried everything I can think of - still no joy
    Adam

    Thanks for the suggestion but I am not using it as Firewire HD and I unchecked "enalbe disc use" anyway.#
    Something is definitely not right somewhere - when I switch to manual management of tracks it works fine - its just a pain to do that all the time.
    Cheers

    Top download and install apps you need space available on the iPod equal to about three time the file download size.  If you download more than one app at a time you need about three times the total file download size available so it is better if short on storage to purchase one at a time.

  • Cannot syn iphotos . says " Not enough memory where as i have 34 gig available on ipad

    cannot syn iphotos . says " Not enough memory where as i have 34 gig available on ipad

    FYI.. it's storage space not memory.
    Try restarting your iPad. Press and hold the sleep / wake button until you see the red slider then swipe to the right to power off. Then press and hold the sleep / wake button until you see the Apple logo.
    Restart your computer.
    Now try syncing photos.

    The Adobe PDF printer is no longer available in Snow Leopard. This is an announce to this fact at the entrance to the Acrobat Macintosh forum. The old methods for doing what you want will not work in Snow Leopard. I recommend you look at Quite Imposing. It can do everything you want and more. Alas, it comes at a price.

  • Can't update iphone as not enough memeory on computer. Have tried to move itunes to an external hardrive and I thinm it has moved and clicked on the Itunes folder from the external but still says not enough memory..help

    Our computer is REALLY low on memory...we will get a new one at some point but can't at the moment.
    Upgraded to the new iphone 4s and bought an external hardrive so I could move my Itunes library to that, so I could update iphone/itunes (isn't enough memeory on PC to do this)
    I read that I need to consolidate my itunes first but again when I tried to do this it said not enough computer memory.
    Anyway I tried to move the itunes folder over to hardrive and then it looked like it had worked. Clicked on itunes via the external and it opened ituens up..brilliant I thought!Backed my old iphone up and then clicked update...then a m,essage came up saying not enough memeory on comouter to update.
    Is this because i need to delete itunes off the computer?
    Am worried in case it isn't on the hard drive correctly and will lose everything!

    You would be better off to go through and uninstall programs you no longer need or use and move your data over to the external drive, at least temporarily. The iOS update file will be somewhere around 700MB. If your system has less than 20% free disk space, you're pushing the limits even without trying to download something that large and back up your phone so the update can process. If you're running less than 10% disk space you've entered dangerous waters no matter what you're doing.
    This really isn't iPhone related and we can't advise you as to what data and applications you can move or delete. You will have to make that determination yourself or get a friend or family member to help.
    If you do not have a current backup of your computer system, you need to make one. NOW!

  • How do i allocate more memory to my iphoto application? i am unable to add more photos to my library  i keep getting a pop up saying not enough memory in my application

    how do i allocate more memory from my hd to my iphoto application? i have over 80 gb on my hard drive, but only 1.7 gb allocated to my iphoto application & i am unable to add more photos to my library.  i keep getting a popup that says not enough application memory.

    There is excessive swapping of data between physical memory (that is, the memory chips on the logic board) and virtual memory (one or more files on the startup volume.) That activity is relatively slow and causes the whole system to be less responsive. It can happen for two reasons:
    A long-running process with a memory leak (a kind of bug)
    Not enough memory for your usage pattern
    Tracking down a memory leak can be difficult, and it may come down to a process of elimination.
    These instructions are for OS X 10.9 ("Mavericks.") The procedure may be slightly different for earlier versions of OS X.
    When you notice the swap activity, open the Activity Monitor application and select All Processes from the View menu, if it's not already selected. Select the Memory tab. Click the heading of the Real Mem column in the process table twice to sort the table with the highest value at the top. If you don't see that column, select
    View ▹ Columns ▹ Real Memory
    from the menu bar.
    If one process (excluding "kernel_task") is using much more memory than all the others, that could be an indication of a leak. A better indication would be a process that continually grabs more and more real memory over time without ever releasing it. Here is an example of how it's done.
    The processes named "Safari Web Content" render web pages for Safari. They use a lot of memory and may leak if certain Safari extensions or third-party web plugins are installed. Consider them prime suspects.
    Another process often implicated in memory leaks is "inkjet4" or "inkjet8," which is a component of the HP printing software. If it's present, force-quit the process in Activity Monitor to solve the problem temporarily. Empty the print queues in the Printers & Scanners preference pane (which has a slightly different name in each recent version of OS X.) If you don't use an HP printer, remove the software. Otherwise, if the problem is recurrent, update the software (which may not help) or contact HP support.
    "Wired" memory should be a small part of the total. That memory is not swapped, but it makes less physical memory available which may then result in swapping. If you have a lot of wired memory, that's usually an indication of a memory leak in a third-party program that modifies the operating system at a low level. Ask for guidance in that case.
    If you don't have an obvious memory leak, your options are to install more memory (if possible) or to run fewer programs simultaneously.
    The next suggestion is only for users familiar with the shell. For a more precise, but potentially misleading, test, run the following command: 
    sudo leaks -nocontext -nostacks process | grep total
    where process is the name of a process you suspect of leaking memory. Almost every process will leak some memory; the question is how much, and especially how much the leak increases with time. I can’t be more specific. See the  leaks(1) man page and the Apple developer documentation for details.

    Someone please help I've already been without one for a month now and it *****.

    I need help! When I'm on the "Summary" tab on itunes, at the bottom where it shows my capacity, what is "other"?! It's taking up more than half of my space!? I deleted alot of my contacts on my ipod. I don't have any videos, pictures, movies or tv shows on my ipod. Very few apps. What gives? I had to take off a lot of my music, where as before, all of my music would fit on my ipod.

  • What does it mean when iTunes say "not enough memory" and won't let me buy songs?

    Everytime I try to purchase a song, I get a message that says "The iTunes store cannot complete your request. There is not enough memory available." I have plenty of space on my computer. What does this mean, and how do I fix it?

    You need to do as the message says and contact iTunes Support : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/ - click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page, then Purchases, Billing & Redemption

  • My computer won't let me install a program.  Says not enough memory although I have 70 GB available

    My computer won't let me install a program.  Says not enough space available when in fact it has 70 GB available.  It selects Macintosh HD as the destination.  It will not let me navigate to the Applications folder.

    - Exactly what are you doing? You saying you are trying to syn it to new comnputer. When yuo sync it to a new computer iTunes will erase the iPod and replace its contents with what is i the iTunes library of the new computer.

  • IPad saying not enough memory when syncing photos from iPhoto

    I have been trying to sync my iPad for the past two weeks.  It is an iPad with Retina Display, 3rd Gen, 64gb.  I finally gave up and just downloaded all of my apps and songs from icloud, but I want to be able to sync it to my computer.  It keeps telling me that the iPad does not contain enought memory.  I do not know how this is seeing as how it says that I have over 40 gb free.  Today I was able to get it to sync, and then I realized I did not have my photos from iPhoto checked.  I checked it to sync photos from iPhoto and only selected one album with 223 pictures in it.  When I did that, it gave me the message that I could not sync it because I did not have enough memory.  How could I not have enough memory when it says that I have 40gb of space free and I am only trying to sync 223 photos?  Please help.  I will try to update this post if anything improves.
    I have already restored the iPad once, and that clearly did not do anything.  haha.

    Reset it by holding the power and home buttons at the same time until you see the Apple logo, then release.
