Rendering is increasing space used

I am working on a project that involves three diffrenet cameras with different bit rates so I cannot do a multicam project. I have put three 40 minute clips in the time line. The one with the best audio is in the primary timeline. I put them all there believing that it would be easier to do my ABC roll. However in doing so the rendering adds a lot of real estate. One of them added 40 GB and another added 21 GB. I am not even half way finished. When I move on to the next section, I will not be able to complete the project due to no space available. I do have a 2 TB external drive. Should I try to transfer the whole project there? Is rendering Final Cut Pro X supposed to take up this much space? When I worked in Final Cut Express rendering files were no where near the size of the rendering file I have encontered in Final Cut Pro X.
Please advise. Thank you

Move out to the project pane, select your project and from the File menu select: Delete Project Render Files... From the popup, leave  Unused Render Files Only selected and click Okay. Check the drive your project is on and see if that freed up significant memory.
If you have several projects on that same drive - dump all the unused render files for each one!
If you're still a little cramped for space, you can turn off Background rendering and see if that helps (it may slow you down some... but it will keep FCPX from continually rendering new files which it will do any time you make any parameter adjustments to things like Effects, etc...)
If worse comes to worse, you can move your project (File > Move Project) to a bigger drive, but if it's a slower drive, it will slow you down even more.

  • ADF11g page rendering time increases when used continuously for 2-3 hours

    Hi,
    We have an ADF11G application running on weblogic 10.3.2.0. After using the application for 2-3 hours, the page rendering time increases. Looking at the JVM performance graph from the enterprise manager, I found that the JVM memory usage are 1.8 GB, we have allocated 2 GB of memory to the soa_server1 on which this ADF application is deployed.
    I'm surprised why this much memory is consumed. Can anyone please point out what could be the issue. Is the ADF11G components which are consuming so much memory?
    Our Manager server soa_server1 also has BPEL components deployed on it. Is it advisable to use a separate managed server for ADF applications or it is very normal to use ADF and SOA components deployed on the same managed server?
    Thanks in advance for any suggestions.
    Thanks,

  • How do I use storage on icloud to increase space on my phone

    How do I use the storage space I purchased to increase space on my 4s phone

    Are these things you really want to have control over - and keep?
    If so you would be better off off-loading them to your home computer if you have one. 
    Western Digital and probably other drive makers do off "create your own cloud"  devices so you can share between multiple devices if you need it.
    The "cloud" is a fluffy marketing name for a shared server - owned by another individual who has control over your information and how long it is kept.
    Even Steve Wozniak doubted that that was a great idea - as in read the fine print don't just accept it.

  • I'm using Aperture for photos on my Mac, I have near 450G of raw photos and I'm running short on space,what is the best option to imrpove proformance and increase space.?

    I use Aperture on my Mac and have approx 450Gigs of raw files for my photos and growing. I'm running short on space and system is starting to slow down. What are the best ooptions to improve performance and increase space space.?

    important to note that what you are talking about is not a backup
    It is simple to ahve your iPhoto library on an external drive -
    Moving the iPhoto library is safe and simple - quit iPhoto and drag the iPhoto library intact as a single entity to the external drive - depress the option key and launch iPhoto using the "select library" option to point to the new location on the external drive - fully test it and then trash the old library on the internal drive (test one more time prior to emptying the trash)
    And be sure that the External drive is formatted Mac OS extended (journaled) (iPhoto does not work with drives with other formats) and that it is always available prior to launching iPhoto
    And backup soon and often - having your iPhoto library on an external drive is not a backup and if you are using Time Machine you need to check and be sure that TM is backing up your external drive
    And you can have multiple i{Photo libraries - one can be on your internal drive and other on an external drive  --  iPhoto Library Manager - http://www.fatcatsoftware.com/iplm/ -  is a very helpful tool for managing multiple libraries

  • HT3224 Migration created a new user account on my new MacBook, increasing the space used. Any solution?

    I recently upgraded my MacBook Pro. Using the migration assistant, I transfered my old backed up (using the Time Machine) things to the new MacBook Pro. It  created another user account with the old Administrator ID. This about doubled the space usage on my machine and sort of slowed down the machine. There are no Apple Stores in my area and the machine was brought from the UK. So how do I solve the space problem?

    Thanks Neil. What I did before asking the question was simslar to what you suggested. I logged in with the new account, went to the Users&Groups pane, clicked on the other sccount and asked to delete. Which it did. With the older MacBook Pro and under Disk Utilities the space used was about 160 GB. With the new MacBook Pro and after the delete, the Disk Utility is giving me used space as 322.22GB (a difference of 150 GB all things considered). That I think was a substacial increase and I want to figure out why. May be I did something wrong?
    Your help is very much appreciated.

    Thanks

    You can use iCloud with 10.7.5. You do not need to upgrade to Yosemite. You should provide a minimum of 15 GBs of free space or 10% of the hard drive's capacity, whichever is greater.
    Freeing Up Space on The Hard Drive
      1. See Lion/Mountain Lion/Mavericks' Storage Display.
      2. You can remove data from your Home folder except for the /Home/Library/ folder.
      3. Visit The XLab FAQs and read the FAQ on freeing up space on your hard drive.
      4. Also see Freeing space on your Mac OS X startup disk.
      5. See Where did my Disk Space go?.
      6. See The Storage Display.
    You must Empty the Trash in order to recover the space they occupied on the hard drive.
    You should consider replacing the drive with a larger one. Check out OWC for drives, tutorials, and toolkits.
    Try using OmniDiskSweeper 1.8 or GrandPerspective to search your drive for large files and where they are located.

  • Dramatically reduce the amt of space used by OSX

    I have a late 09' Mac Mini that's recently been upgraded from 2GB to 8GB of DDR3 1066Mhz RAM.
    Plus, it's had it's 2.5" 5400RPM 160GB HDD replaced by a 240GB SSD...
    With SSD's, it's typically a good idea to have at least 10% of the total capacity allocated as free space (how much depends on the SSD)
    I just upgraded from SL (with all the latest updates applied) to Mavericks, & I noticed that the latter is using far more space.*
    On SL 7.1GB was used & on Mavericks 11.6GB is now used, & I haven't even applied all the latest updates to Mavericks yet!**
    Looking for tips on how to greatly reduce the space used, without greatly reducing the capability/functionality/utility of the OS.
    Thank-you.
    *both were clean OSX installs, only native/stock apps, no 3rd-party ones yet
    **actually, it looks like it's auto-updated to the latest build of OSX, I just used the update tool & the only update left was for iBooks

    Tony T1 wrote:
    My guess is that the space increased was due to the sleep image increase when you added 6G of RAM.
    You can have the mini only use RAM for sleep. 
    The downside is that if you loose power while sleeping, then the sleep image will be gone.  Updside is 8G of diskspace reclaimed.
    In Terminal, run:
        pmset -g
    Look for hibernatemode
         If it's hibernatemode=3, then "The system will store a copy of memory to persistent storage (the disk)"
         If it's hibernatemode=0, then "The system will not back memory up to persistent storage"
    If hibernatemode=3, look for the sleepimage with:
         ls -l /var/vm/sleepimage
    To reclaim disk space:
    In Terminal:
         sudo pmset hibernatemode 0
    Then you have to remove the sleepimage with:
         sudo rm -i /var/vm/sleepimage
    For more infor, see: man pmset
    Okay finally had a chance to check this, nope it's set to: hibernatemode 0
    Also did a ls -l /var/vm/sleepimage & got: "No so such file or directory"
    I also did a ls -al in /var/vm & saw 2x swapfiles which seem to be taking a considerable amount of space.
    These generally shouldn't be touched, right?
    After reading that article you linked to & others it linked to, + some other reading before them, I'm 100% sure I don't want hibernatemode 1.
    Resume/Autosave/Versions etc, + the FS's natural journaling abiities are more than enough for a desktop like the Mini.
    So back to my original question, what else can be done to reduce space used?
    I've done lots of research/reading since, but I'm still not 100% happy with the reductions.
    I've come a long way though, largely by using symlinks to redirect data heavy dirs in my home dir, haven't touched ~/Library & am reluctant to for various reasons.

  • More space used after a harddrive upgrade

    I just upgraded my MabBook HD from 500GB to 750GB. I "Reinstall" Mac OS X 10.8.4 and then used Migration Assit to bring over all my old "stuff", settings, etc.
    My old 500GB drive used 330.52GB and the new 750GB is using 453.5GB. Why the 122.98GB increase?
       New 750GB                                      Old 500GB

    I found the problem... there was a "_CCC Arcive" folder with 8 folders from the past 2 years with misc stuff that amounted to the increase of used space. I have no idea where that came from.

  • Amount of space used

    3 Part Question - ( 1 ) Using my G5 with iMovie 6.0.3 I have downloading video from a camcorder. I checked the amount of free space left on the hard drive before downloading and it was at 30GB. With just 7 minutes of video downloaded and no extra editing, music or other done to it, it shows now only 23 GB left to use with some more to enter on the same movie.
    How can that be for only 7 mins of video .... When putting a store bought DVD onto the computer to view , it only takes up about 7.4 GB of space on the hard drive for a 2 hour movie .... what am I not understanding ?
    (2) The iMovie shows the amount of time and the remaining space allowed to use , but is there somewhere I can find to actually see the amount of space used to see if the math is correct or there is something else wrong ?
    (3) After I read the response to the above .... and possibly all is in working order ..... is it possible then to use a back up hard drive to make the movie if I don't have sufficient space on the hard drive and then burn it to DVD afterwards on the back up hard drive or do I have to copy it back on the computer if there is enough space. ?
    Thanks, Eric

    Hi
    Manus - Wrong word - Should have spelled "Script".
    1) Your Reply > If You import 1 hour then cut away 53 minutes = 7 min
    it still takes up 13-14GB though it is a non-destructive editor. It doesn't tuch Your import just
    writes a script on what frames to be shown.
    Not really understanding that .. if I cut away 53 mins and then emptied the trash ... should it just use the 2GB of space for the 7 mins I have on I movie .... And what's a "manus " on what frames to be shown .... ?
    No it doesn't help to empty trash. iMovie is a non-destructive editor. All that has been imported
    stays untuched in it's media folder. UNTIL - If You delete ALL - every single frame of an imported
    clip. Delet this and then empty trash. It's gone. BUT if You use only one frame - full import stays.
    To save space one often - export out needed material to a new tape.
    Delete the old import project and starts a new one with material from the new tape.
    3) Back HardDrive to use to make a movie with iMovie .. Your Reply > Has to be Mac Os Extended formatted - Most bought as DOS/FAT32 formatted ? Sorry that's over my head .....
    If You buy an external hard disk it has to be organised in a way called "Formatting" and this is most
    often done for Window PC computers. This way doesn't work when using it with a Mac and especially
    when doing Video works.
    To find out how it is formatted:
    • Connect it to Youre Mac via FireWire (avoid USB/USB2)
    • Select it when it showes up on desktop
    • Press [cmd-i]
    Now You can read how it is structured "formatted".
    If it is empty - You have not start to store anything on it - You can re-formatte it with:
    Apple Disk Util tool (in Applications/Tools)
    Hopfully this has brought any light into your questions.

  • Storage values under about this mac displaying incorrectly, but amount of space used IS correct. Any ideas?

    I noticed recently that the "storage" under "about this mac" is displaying incorrectly. It doesn't show the correct values for my photos, videos, and audio files. It classifies this data under "other". I have been searching all over the internet, I went to the Apple genius bar yesterday and they recommended I re-install OSX. I did and it still shows up incorrectly. They were baffled, said they never really came across this issue. I have tried re-indexing spotlight, that didn't seem to help.
    The amount of storage used IS correct. It just doesn't show up under the correct categories in storage, under about this mac. Also, the computer seems to work fine. No real issues. It's a mid 2012 MBP. 500gb hard drive. Most recent OSX is installed.
    I DO NOT think it is local snapshots, cause my backups category is small and the amount of space used and free is correct. I have downloaded omnidisk sweeper to confirm this.
    I have seen a few posts on here and around the web referring to this, but no real answers. I have also reviewed Pondini's info on this to no avail.
    Does anyone have any ideas?!?!

    Also,
    I had installed a version of parallels with windows 7, but deleted it. Would parallels be causing my computer to index incorrectly? I I used appcleaner to delete all the parallels files so I do not have it anymore.

  • TS1702 how can I remove large number of photos on my iPhone 4s from iTunes using a PC - Lenovo Think Pad - so that I can reduce the space used on the phone by 50%?

    how can I remove large number of photos on my iPhone 4s from iTunes using a PC - Lenovo Think Pad - so that I can reduce the space used on the phone by 50%?

    You don't need iTunes for that. Simply connect the iPhone to the PC where it will be recognized as a camera. You can then select the photos you wish to transfer, transfer them, and delete them.

  • Time Machine backup not a large as amount of space used on harddrive

    I just bought a new iMAC and Time Capsule and completed my first backup. In Disk Utility it shows that there is 151 GB of space used on the hard drive. The space used on the Time Capsule is 131 GB. I searched this topic and can't find it addressed before. Did Time Capsule not back up all the Hard Drive?
    Thanks,
    Carl

    Pondini,
    Thank you for your prompt response. My hard drive and Time Capsule drive both show that 150 GB are used so I guess that is settled. When the Time Capsule changed I don't know. In regard to the Time Machine Buddy, I followed the instructions. To copy I pressed the C key, the M key, and the D key then pressed the C key again. It works a lot better to use the CMD key C approach.
