PSE 11: not enough space for backup?

On PSE 11 i backuped three times the catalog without an error.
Now i became the message, that there is not enough free space.
But the free space on the target drive is 399GB and the catalog size ist about 80GB.
I have repaired and optimized the catalog in PSE without a result.
Where is the problem?

Hi,
Yes you are correct about only images in the catalog being backed up. In my case, the two are the same as I rarely deleted from the catalog and not the disk.
I also use ccleaner as I find that PSE leaves a lot of junk in the Temp folder sometimes, particularly when using the Save Metadata to Files function.
There seems to be enough room on your target disk and you said that the backup worked with the same amount of free space on your system disk that you have now. The only other thing that I can think of is do you now have any other applications running in the background. I'm wondering if there might be a problem with the swap file. I have known system crashes to cause loss of disk space but that should be recovered by disk check when it next loads.
Normally with a system disk, I might try doing a defrag so that the free space is consolidated into contiguous blocks but a SSD probably doesn't need that. How big is your SSD?

  • Not enough space for backup

    I recently bought a new imac with a 1TB hard drive. I used the migration assistant to move my settings from my previous mac mini. I discovered that the i needed to reset my Filevault to take advantage of the new mac's larger hard drive and did this. However when i try to use time machine and only select my iMac filevault to be backed up, i am told that the size of this is 1.2 TB and too big to backup to my 1TB external drive. When the hard drive on my iMac is only 1TB and the actual size is 900 something GB, how can this be ? This is the first time to use Timemachine.

    A 1 TB drive is not 1 TB. Dividing by 1.024, the "1000 to K" factor gives 976 GB, the "real" size of your drive. It's clearly too small to backup your file system. The error message you are getting is correct.
    You will need a multi-TB external drive to backup your FS. The general rule is that the external drive should be at least 3 times your internal drive size or it will only be able to back up for a short time period before it starts deleting old backups.
    I suggest finding out where all those GBs of files are coming from and copy them somewhere else permanently, unless they are in constant use.

  • Macintosh HD not enough space for time machine backup?

    I have a 128GB Macbook Air. When I first got it, I made a Time Machine backup of the system, but now when I go into the recovery and choose to restore from backup, it says the Macintosh HD only has 112 GB and that it's not enough space for some reason. Why would it have me do a backup that I can't Restore? I need to restore the backup.

    There shouldn't be any fee involved.  Call the Apple online store for your country (1-800-MY-APPLE in the U.S. and Canada) and request a refund.
    If the download is stuck, you can download in iTunes on your computer, then sync it to your iPad once your free up some space.  This explains how to download your previous purchases to your computer: http://support.apple.com/kb/ht2519.

  • Visual C++ Runtime Error R6016 not enough space for thread data

    I get these errors on startup of my Windows 8.1 (with all latest updates installed) after login.
    1. It would be helpful if the error message actually identified the exe or dll causing the problem.
    Program: C:\Progra...
    Is not a very helpful clue to the source of the error and because of its brevity comes across as being contemptuous of the user.

    2. From the active apps Desktop toolbar it appears that this problem may be associated with
    Apple IE DAV
    3. I suspect that the problem announced by this error might also be contributing to the the fact that my Chrome browser now appears to be overlaid with a pink matt variation on its entire colour scheme. I have reported the pink matt error directly to Google

  • Nokia 100 (not enough space for new messages)

    Hi!
    From time to time i get messages that there is a text message that wants to come through but that there is not enough space. I then delete some inbox messages and then within minutes i get the text. However, recently it has taken much more time for the text to come in after deleting old messages. 
    And why do i all of the sudden get a message that there is not enough space, then i delete some old messages, and NOTHING comes through? Why am i getting this so-called false alarm from time to time now?
    I really hope someone can help me with this problem!
    Thank you!

    Hi Friend,
    Much probably that "others" data is taking the most of usage space.
    So start to solve this issue deleting text messages.
    If the issue persists, connect your iPad with iTunes and check how much space "others" data is taking. try to reset your device by backup in iTunes.
    If still not working, I advice you to search ib other foruns. There are many pleople that faced this problem and successfully solve it
    Hope it helps

    Not Enough Space on iPhone to Restore Backup!!!

    so what is the solution

    You'll need to extract your contacts/photos from your backup, using something like this:

    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.

  • Not enough space for Time Machine on new disk

    So my old 256 GB hard drive crashed and I bought a smaller SSD with just 128 GB. When I try to restore my Time Machine backup, obviously, it says that there is not enough space and won’t do anything. Is there any way to do a partial restore?

  • Not enough space for TM backup

    I recently had to replace my hard drive and installed the operating system and successfully restored to my TM backup. Now when I want to get back on the program so to speak, it tells me I don't have enough space to do it. If I used the backup that is what's on my computer, why won't it recognize it and just continue backing up like it was. Do I have to reformat and backup again?

    No, actually my hard drive went bad and I sent to Apple Care since it was covered. When I got it back it was loaded with the Leopard OS with updates already installed. I then used TM to restore to my original system configuration
    how exactly did you do that? did you use the restore utility on the install DVD?

  • Not enough space for updates

    I don't have enough space on the hard drive to install updates.  I need to move my itunes to My passport for Mac but am not sure how to do it and don't want to lose the music I have copied from my CDs.  Is there a simple solution?

    You need ideally 2 archives of your valuable data. Meaning 2 HD, one as a Time Machine backup and a separate (or more) HD to archive your important data.
    Grab a 1TB Toshiba or Seagate HD for $65 and drag and drop all your important files onto them and clear up space off your Macbook Air.
    In the case of a Macbook Air or Macbook Pro Retina with ‘limited’ storage on the SSD, this distinction becomes more important in that in an ever rapidly increasing file-size world, you keep vital large media files, pics, video, PDF collections, music off your SSD and archived on external storage, for sake of the necessary room for your system to have free space to operate, store future applications and general workspace.  You should never be put in the position of considering “deleting things” on your macbook SSD in order to ‘make space’.
    As for your passport WD drive, open it up on your desktop and drag your MP3 music files to same.

  • I cannot sync my iphone 4S message not enough space for itunes-how do I fix this

    How do I fix a sync problem for iphone 4s- not enough free space to hold all items in itunes?

    Assuming there is actually enough space try this:
    BACKUP to computer
    Restoring to factory settings
    Restore from backup
    Sorted.
    That fixed mine. I have a sneaking suspicion it has something to do with pulling out from USB without ejecting for itunes/USB bus. Just like on any USB drive, open files will leave a mark behind if not closed properly. Honestly I have no idea why it does it.

  • "Not enough space for photos" alert when there is enough space

    Hello,
    I have a 2nd Gen iPod nano with 4GB, it's about 1.5 years old and till now I could always solve any problems I've had with it, but now it seems my problem hasn't occurred to anyone else ever...
    Putting photos on my iPod has worked fine since I did it for the first time a year ago, but I took all photos off again pretty soon. Now I tried to put some on the iPod again, but it won't work. I get the following pop up alert:
    "No photos were copied to the iPod because there is not enough free space on the iPod to hold your photos and albums."
    I've cleared more and more space until I had 20 MB free. The photos I tried to sync had a size of about 380 KB all together. And still iTunes pretends there wasn't enough space. In the Features Guide it said that only so much space is necessary as the photos themselves will use up. Why won't iTunes sync the selected folder?
    Anyone else has had and solved this problem? Please help.
    Thanks a lot
    Danja

    I've seen this issue before, and it appears to be a quirk on the iPod software.
    That 20MB you cleared is still not enough to sync your photos even though the photos use up less space than that.
    You need to clear even more space on your iPod before you can sync these photos. Try clearing small amounts at a time until the photos sync.
    I've never seen a plausible explanation why the nano behaves this way.

  • Not enough space for Win XP service pack 3

    I am working on an install of Win. XP Pro SP2 for the principal of our middle school. I first got Leopard all updated, installed 3rd party software, completed updates to all and then ran Boot Camp assistant. Thinking that 5 gig would not be nearly enough space I made the Windows partition 25 gigs. I completed with the XP install and started the updates process. Shortly thereafter a message popped up that stated the partition was 4 gigs too small for installation of Service Pack 3 and I had to back out of the updates process. What are my options at this point? Can the windows partition be increased without having to start over with the windows install?

  • My iPhoto Library was deleted from my computer, not enough space for a time machine back up?

    My entire iPhoto Library is gone, inaccessible, doesn't show up in finder. I tried to restore my last Time Machine back up but it says that I don't have enough space on my startup disk. In order to create space I deleted everything nonessential and moved all of my essential folders such as documents, photos, videos, everything, etc. to my external drive, then deleted them from my hard drive. I emptied the trash to make sure that everything was wiped. I tried to do the Time Machine back up of my iPhoto Library again and is still says I don't have enough space. I looked at my storage under About this Mac, and it says that 120.35 GB of my current computer storage are photos, however, I don't have ANY photos on my hard drive at all. I don't know what to do because I can't delete applications and there is literally nothing else I can delete from my computer, so I don't understand how 135 GBs of storage is being used up.
    Any ideas? Could there be somewhere my photos are hiding? I just don't understand how this makes any sense, or why my library got deleted in the first place for that matter.
