Re: Yoga 13 - patch that gives 100gb of free space
RE Lenovo offerred the patch that gives you at least 100gb of free space. I also ordered and installed an additional 128gb SSD and 8gb RAM.---
Where can I find this patch?
Moderator Note; subject edited
snsn,
Either you're remembering wrong, or your Yoga came with new partitioning from what most of us have seen. (Which I'd be surprised by, since I just got a factory-new Yoga yesterday that appears to have had its drive image created on 11/26/12.)
As it ships, with the C and D drive and 7 disk partitions, the Yoga only had a 63GB C drive with 42GB free, plus there was a D partition that had driver backups on it.
Now you have a 100GB C drive with 65GB free (and the stuff that had been on the D drive copied to it).
Telos,
Well, first, like all drives, a "128GB" drive only really stores just under 120GB, due to file system overhead. (Same reason you buy a new 2 terabyte hard drive only to discover that it only has 1.8TB of actual storage.)
Even after the hotfix, there are still six partitions. Two of these could be eliminated, but I wouldn't suggest it.
1- 1GB: Recovery Partition (Lenovo system stuff?)
2 - 260MB: EFI System Partition (created by Windows 8)
3 - 1GB: OEM Partition (More Lenovo system stuff)
4 - 100.41GB: Windows 8 C Partition
5 or 6 - 8GB: Intel Fast Startup
5 or 6 - 8GB: Onekey backup recovery image of the original Windows 8 install
You could eliminate the Intel fast startup partition without breaking anything; it would just make your PC take slightly longer to boot. And you could lose the Onekey backup partition if you made a backup of your OS on an external drive. However, (1) I'm not sure which of the two 8GB partitions is which; I can't tell from Disk Management, and (2) rather than hobble functionality and safely, why not add an SD card in the external memory card slot, if you need new storage and don't want to open the PC to add a second SSD? You can get a fast 64GB card just for just $55 at Amazon, or 16GB for just $12.

IMac won't save data to an SD card that has lots of free space
I have an intel iMac running Tiger (10.4.7) and I bought an SD card reader at Radioshack. I used it with a 2 GB SD card that I got as a gift. After saving some picture and music files to it, it stopped accepting new files. Anything that I try to copy to the card will just give me a window in the Finder that says there is no more space on the card, but on the "get info" screen and on the SD card's Finder window, it says that it has 1.61 GB free! I also tried it in my Nintendo Wii, and it wouldn't copy any files to the card. What should I do? Is there a way to format the card and start over? Or do I have to return the card and the card reader. This happened before I ejected the card, so it wasn't that I didn't remove the card. I made sure I was careful when removing the reader+card from the computer anyway.
Please accept my apology for leaving you hanging (family member with broken down car) here are a couple of article's that will help explain what you now have found.

I have been trying to figure out what the heck is occupying over 1.4 GB of memory on my iPhone and how I can get rid of it. I had a friend say I needed to reset, but I need to ensure that I can retrieve my text messages because I am in a legal battle and whenever I try to email them, they never get sent so I just need to figure out what I should do.

Lots of photos won't sync - error of no free space
Hi There,
I have an 8GB original iPhone.
When syncing, it frequently fails to copy photos saying
"No photos were copied to the iPhone "iPhone" because there is not enough free space on the iPhone to hold your photos and albums"
Now, all my photos for syncing are re-sized to 800x600 so are pretty small (the iTunes optimisation actually gives a bigger file size). After my current sync iTunes reports 262.3MB free - MORE than enough for the photos left to sync.
I've tried a multitude of things, including
- deleting all the photos off the phone and starting again
- clearing the iPhone photo cache folder
- performing a full restore of the iPhone OS
The only thing that does appear to work is deleting videos, but then I still end up with the space for videos, but if I put them on there it deletes the photos. I can fill up the entire disc with video/music (iTunes allows that), but not photos.
I've seen some others are having this problem, but not seen a solution.
Any thoughts?
Please help,
JamesHi,
But if you had 60MB of photos and 110MB of free space, you shouldn't need to remove any apps?? At the very least it should copy as many as it can to use up all the free space?
A pretty annoying bug in iTunes sync??
I've also found that removing videos will allow me to copy the photos, but the annoying thing is that it's reporting enough space so that I SHOULD be able to have my photos AND videos AND apps - but it makes me chose so that it can keep free space...
BTW, I can fill up ALL the free space with video, but NOT with photos...!
Anyone got this to work properly at all?? -
Cannot Partition Free Space on my external drive
Hey Everyone,
I am trying to partition the free space on my external drive. Used to have 3 partitions on my drive 2 HFS+ and one FAT (originally created by disk utility). I upgraded to leopard and thought i would give time machine a shot. so i erased two of my smaller partitions (the FAT and small HFS+) and put all the data on the 3rd (HFS+).
The drive now has one partition at 350GB (Lacie Disk) and 100GB at "Free Space".
I have tried Disk Utility, Micromat Disk Studio and Drive Genius 2 and none of them will allow me to repartition the free space on my external drive.
I am rather confused as to why i am "not allowed" to do this. I can't delete the 350GB of stuff since it IS my backup and my drive on my mac is only 160GB.
Any suggestions to work around this or as to why i can't repartion an external drive.
Thanks

Message was edited by: Ryan Supeeneselct the whole drive (the model, not the partition name) and disk utility and look at the bottom on the right. what does it say on the line Partition Map Scheme?
If it says Master Boot Record you can't repartition the drive without erasing everything. if it says Apple partition Map or GUID partition table you should be able to add a partition in place of free space by clicking on the + button in the partition tab. -
Disk Utility - Erase Free Space-what does it really do?
Hey Forum,
I am using mac os 10.6.4 on my macbook and i have a doubting question for quite sometimes, what does disk utility erase free space feature really do? Does it gives you more free space? or what? I know it prevents the recovery of deleted files but i want to know what more it does and do not do? Like, now my hdd free space kept increasing and decreasing, by a few 100 mbs or 50mbs etc, so do i erase free space so to solve this problem? Ok, i do not only want to know does it solve the previous problem, but also the questions stated in the whole long paragraph i have wrote. If you know anything related to disk utility's erase free space, feel free to tell me!
Pls help me, I need you guys' help!
Thank you.
Regards
Ala.Erase free space simply writes zeros over the space occupied by deleted files to prevent data recovery. That's all it does. It does not give you extra disk space.
Your disk space goes up and down a bit because the system creates temporary files and logs which take up space, such as the Safari cache. You can clear these file using a utility like Onyx (which is free) -
Every time i attempt to play madden it constantly pops up that i have no free space and cannot save.. and that i need to clear up 2.13 MB in system storage to save.. then it gives me tips like delete themes, gallary items etc... But I still have 332.1 GB left of free space.. so why is asking me to do this and how can i either have it stop popping up or get rid of the message altogetether?
First off delete the game data and re-install it, if the game save is no big deal delete that too If that doesn't work, then start the PS4 in safe mode and rebuild database, see if that works

Calculating free space in tablespace
Oracle 11.0.1.7:
I am trying to calculate free space in the tablespace but I am not sure if Allocated Space (bytes_used) also has some free space that doesn't get reflected in the query below. Is it correct to assume that bytes_used is the space allocated to extents but may not have been really used (no data or LOB) yet? How do I calculate space that's currently been used by row data, index data or blob data?
I am currently using below query:
select a.TABLESPACE_NAME,
a.BYTES bytes_used,
b.BYTES bytes_free,
b.largest,
round(((a.BYTES-b.BYTES)/a.BYTES)*100,2) percent_used
from
select TABLESPACE_NAME,
sum(BYTES) BYTES
from dba_data_files
group by TABLESPACE_NAME
a,
select TABLESPACE_NAME,
sum(BYTES) BYTES ,
max(BYTES) largest
from dba_free_space
group by TABLESPACE_NAME
b
where a.TABLESPACE_NAME=b.TABLESPACE_NAME
order by ((a.BYTES-b.BYTES)/a.BYTES) descDBA_FREE_SPACE give you the free space information which has not been allocated to any segment. The segments can also have free space in their allocated space and in order to find that, use DBMS_SPACE.SPACE_USAGE procedure. To find out free space in LOB segments refer to metalink doc: 386341.1

Finder showing wrong amount of free space on Macintosh HD
Hi!
Does anyone know why Finder tells me that the amount of free space on my Mac is 46.53 GB while Disk Utility says there are only 31.89 GB of free space left?Just found the solution in another thread: the "problem" seems to be the local Time Machine Snapshots. Finder ignores them, Disk Utility doesn't.

Difference between free space on disk and column FREE_MB in V$ASM_DISKGROUP
Hi ,
in our RAC environment we have setup an ACFS. We use that mainly for RMAN backups. When connecting to the ASM instance and executing the query
Select name, state, total_mb, free_mb from v$asm_diskgroup;
we are getting the following result:
NAME STATE TOTAL_MB FREE_MB
DG00_CRS MOUNTED 10738 9912
DG01_FR MOUNTED 409592 360173
DG02_DATA MOUNTED 6553568 1628732
DG03_BACKUP MOUNTED 5615920 4227
Seems to me that the ASM instance believes that the amount of frees space in diskgroup DG03_BACKUP is 4227 MB. Butr when checking on
operatingsystem level, the result looks different:
Filesystem 1K-blocks Used Available Use% Mounted on
/dev/asm/v03_backup-33
5746196480 2430545120 3315651360 43% /u01/app/oracle/orabackup
=> As a matter of fact, we have about 3,3 TB free space available. Should that result not be shown when running the query above? I currently
don't have a clue why the query returns 4227 MB...
Any help will be appreciated...
Rgds
JHACFS is a 11.2 feature, while ASM existed long before
ASM will consider such volumes as used space when querying V$ASM_DISKGROUP, or issuing lsdg in asmcmd
you can use the views V$ASM_ACFSVOLUMES and V$ASM_FILESYSTEM for ACFS
or volinfo in asmcmd -
How to defragment and compact free space in Intel based iMacs?
Hi. I had some problems with the OS, so I decided to re-install it. After that I deleted a lot of Stuff I don't really need. Now I have big blocks of free Space in my hard drive and I think that make do an annoing noise. I tryed "iDefrag" but this software just let me do a very normal quick Defrag.
iDefrag says that in order to compact free space, I have to unmount the volume from a different one with the System already installed on it...or from a CD.
I tryed using my FW drive. But it doesn't work as I spected.
So, How can I boot iMac from a CD or DVD in order to run iDefrag and do that "defrag and compact free space".
Thank youLicht,
Nope, and I wouldn't even try the Norton method. It is fraught with difficulty and can leave you in worse shape than you were before. Best to clone twice and erase, and restore. That's much safer. Here's my FAQ on backing up which includes how to clone:
http://www.macmaps.com/backup.html
For bigger files than Mac OS X defragments on the fly which I mention earlier in the thread, I've found using a separate scratch partition that I can erase with Disk Utility when I'm done creating content and want to create new content that is video or audio works best. The only time Mac OS X experiences fragmentation is with large video files.
I've also found keeping your hard disk at least 10 GB free helps a lot. -
Automatically fill free space with songs
When I am syncing music to my iphone, and I check the box that says "Automatically fill free space with songs," how does itunes determine which songs it puts on my phone? Can I prevent it from placing unchecked songs in my library on my phone?
Ah, it looks like the solution is here:
http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=12209799�
And involves going to the summary tab, selecting "manually sync music" then deleting all of my songs and resyncing. That shouldn't take more than 45 minutes. I'll report back if it works. -
New Solaris 10 install, negative free space
I just installed Solaris 10 from a Sun DVD over an old linux install. The install process created two UFS partitions with 0 unallocated space (I did everything the default), and everything seemed fine. The system boots correctly, and the filesystems both seem accessible.
However, in the Solaris Management Console, if I go to Storage->Disks it takes a long time to load, and then it says I have 1 disk with -1.06GB free. When I click on it, it says it doesn't see a Solaris Fdisk partition. What's wrong?
I installed it on a Thinkpad R40.It looks like the filesystems themselves have free space, but the Solaris Management Console doesn't seem to think it has a Solaris Fdisk partition and wants to delete the whole disk.
I don't even know how to really look at the partition table because I'm not familiar with Solaris's device naming scheme. There's no c0d0 device to run fdisk on.
The only time I see information about the partition table at all is in the Solaris Management Console, where it tells me that there is negative free space.
