*unselected "Sync music" from the appropriate tab. And iTunes warned: if you do this, we will delete every playlist and song on your iPod*
To change to manually managing an iPod you don't "unselect" sync music, you "select" manually manage songs and videos. If you want to delete songs from iTunes and keep them on the iPod you need to change the update option of your iPod by checking the box beside "manually manage songs and videos" in the Summary tab and clicking Apply. Your iPod will not sync with iTunes in this mode so it can have different content, you can get details here:
Managing content manually on iPod
iPod 101: Fill 'er Up
One major word of caution. If you delete songs or videos from your computer and have no back up other than the iPod you will risk losing them permanently if your iPod fails or you find you have to restore it to solve a problem. You should consider investing in an additional internal or external hard drive to store/back up your music. Alternatively at the very least back up anything you can't replace such as iTunes downloads to CD or DVD: How to back up your media in iTunes
Something else to be aware of when using an iPod in manual mode is that the "Do Not Disconnect" message will remain on the display until you physically eject the device. In that case use Safely Remove Hardware icon in the Windows system tray on your desktop or check this link: Safely Disconnect IPod
I don't have any TV shows so I can't speak from experience here but looking at the TV tab it appears you can only sync shows, there's no manually manage option. Syncing would require that you keep the shows on your computer otherwise they would be removed from the iPod the next time you syncronised with iTunes.

How do I rent SD movies on my 3rd Gen Apple TV? I have changed the output resolution in Apple TV's setup to 720, but it didn't make any difference.

I returned my 14 month old 3rd Gen Apple TV to the Apple store today because it would no longer see my wireless network. Apple said that because of this problem, it was still covered under warranty, and gave me a new one. Took it home and went through all the setup screens. Even downloaded the latest software update. Everything else appears to be working fine, but I can't rent a movie in SD like I used to be able to. Everything I've read says that the settings is where I change that, but the one setting that I did find and change, under audio and visual, made no difference. What am I missing?
Thanks!

This problem has been solved by me. The settings under the Apple TV menu for audio/visual do adjust for the output to your screen either 1080 or 720, but don't have any effect on the iTunes purchases.
The solution is under the Apple TV menu option "iTunes Store". There you can choose from 1080 HD, 720 HD or 720 SD. Now my movie selections in iTunes do offer the SD option.

SYSAUX runs out of space.

And the second problem is that SYSAUX runs out of space extremely fast.
I am a junior DBA, so I don't have such permissions like ALTER or MODIFY (i.e. SNAPSHOT_SETTINGS), but I can query v$'s. May be you can suggest where to look.
Thank you very much,
M.

In the case of out of space situation of sysaux, AWR automatically reuses space by deleting the oldest snapshot.
You can also query V$sysaux_occupants... Especially space_usage_kbytes will give you a clear indication as which component is taking more space for sysaux.

Hp stream running out of space due to windows updates.

So having had my stream 14 for a few months now it was in need of a clean up and so I decided to factory reset it and discovered a serious issue regarding lost drive space caused by windows updates.
In factory shipped condition, the system uses some sort of system that accesses the recovery partition to use the data on the WIM I believe, either way whatever it is doing is quite clever and leaves the system with a farly impressive 19.3GB of free space left over, however this situation rapidly degrades once windows starts to update itself.
Allowing Windows 8.1 X64 to update to the last available 'important' update reduces the available free space down to 10.8GB, that's a massive (when taken in context of how much is available) 8.5GB of space gone just by windows performing what are supposed to be important updates, not sure how much worse it will get with time either as it appears that any updated files are expanded to fill the available space rather than stored in the WIM image.
Do HP consider it uneccesary to update windows or are they going to take action to somehow rectify the situation by maybe providing an updated system image that will allow a more recent updated version of windows to be used in the same manner the original installation was? Or is there something I can do to perform this function?
Any ideas?

@Dano314 ,
Hello and thank you for posting on the HP support forums. The updates are put out there to resolve issues.
If you find you are running out of space. Consider using an external hard drive. The hard drive on your system is not made for huge file storage and so on.
On the other hand if you find your system is running ok then do updates when you seem to find you are running into issues.
Thanks again for posting and have a great day.

Oracle Home running out of space

Hi,
I have installed oracle application server 10g and oracle 10g on an Linux server.
Both products have been installed on the /oracle partition which is about 11GB
The database control and data files have been setup to another partition /oradata.
After a few months i seem to be running out of space on the /oracle partition.
I think it might be due to some log files. Can anyone please give me ideas on which files I can safely purge on the application server home and database home to create some space on the /oracle parition
Thanks

hi Prativ,
For oracle application server,
The log files in the below three location can be purged,if you want u can take a backup of these older log files in another mount point before deleting
1st $ORACLE_HOME/webcache/logs
2nd $ORACLE_HOME/j2ee/OC4J_BI_Forms/log/OC4J_BI_Forms_default_island_1/
Purge the default-web-access.log and server.log
3rd $ORACLE_HOM/Apache/Apache/logs

HT204264 IOS devices running out of space

I'm testing the new Photos iCloud system described above. I signed up for the Beta. It works well but now my IOS devices have run out of space. This is because I've uploaded 100gigs worth of photos to the library by migrating my iPhoto's librbry. The IOS devices are set to Optimize mode but have still run out of space. I realise this is a beta but surely Apple are aware of the limitations and should have published this? I own 200gigs worth of iCloud storage which I pay for so my iCloud is not even running at 50% capacity. Isn't this new iCloud photos system suppose to final,y get rid of photo storage issues? Thanks.

RakD,
Changing (or designating) the 'iTunes Music folder' location in the Preferences does not instruct iTunes where to look for existing songs it currently knows about, but where to store any new songs it Imports, or 'Adds' and copies to its Library organization (if that attribute is selected). This is an important distinction.
If at all possible, move the songs back to where they were originally, allow iTunes to see them, then use iTunes to 'Consolidate' the songs to the new location on the other partition. See this link for instructions: http://discussions.apple.com/click.jspa?searchID=319008&messageID=1222994

Bootcamp (C:) running out of space

My bootcamp (C:) is running out of space. I am down to less than 100mb. Is there a way to re-partition my bootcamp (C:) to add more space? I have Windows 7 on the (C:) and Snow Leopard on the (E:). There is plenty of space on the Snow Leopard side, and so I was hoping to add 10GB to the Windows 7 (bootcamp) side.
I would also like to not lose any data from either side, especially from my Outlook. Is this possible?
Also, not sure if this matters, but a few of my applications I downloaded directly from my University website (Acrobat Professional 9) and don't have the install disc.
I am a novice when it comes to computers, and would appreciate any help.
Thank you.

you can try a few things but you really need a much larger parition if you're gaming
how much ram do you have? if at least 8gb, you should try disabling hiberation and the pagefile (google for both); others will tell you to leave the pagefile at 1gb, you can, but i haven't had any issues disabling both on over 20 machines since 2008.
even if you disable both of these, a 35-40gb partition is too small for gaming. i'd target 60-100gb depending on how large of a HD you have

Compress /, running out of space

Hi guys:
Unfortunately, I've running out of space on my eee's root partition. I would like to know, if it's possible, what should I do to compress the filesystem and make it rw using a tmpfs overlay (which must sync to another folder when the system shuts down).
thanks

Nope, not catching downloads nor storing logs (/var is mainly a bunch of symlinks pointing to /tmp, which is a tmpfs).

Running out of space on Recovery Image (D)

I followed all of the instructions to make the back up disks and the recovery image by using an external hard disk. Every time I start up the pc, I get the error message: Low Disk Space. You are Running out of Space on your Recovery Image (D) drive. Click here to see if you can free of space. I try that and it doesn't free up any space. Additionally, the Recovery Drive is using 18.9+G of Space and only 9 Meg are free. How can I easily partition more space to the Recovery Drive so I don't have to start all over on the PC. This pc is less than 30 days old.

Running out of space on /... Help Please

Hi,
I am running out of space on /.
I have a drive in there on /export/home/ which has 18gigs free. Is there anyway I can map / to there and also keep all of my files that are in / like spreading it accross 2 drives... I dont plan on reinstalling the machine cos thats a pain. Its an Ultra5 and it takes ages to install solaris 10.
Rob

I had the same problem - made my root partition too small at first. Someone told me to use LiveUpgrade to create a second boot environment with a new partition table. It worked great, now I'm running off the 2nd BE, which is just the way I should have partitioned if the first place. It went like this:
First, you needed to partition and label the disk that will be acting as the new BE.
Then, create the first BE (-c be1) on the current device, copy the data on the specified filesystem to the second BE (be2), which is created with the �n option:
root #> lucreate -c be1 \
-m /:/dev/dsk/c1t2d0s0:ufs \
-m -:/dev/dsk/c1t2d0s1:swap \
-m /var:/dev/dsk/c1t2d0s3:ufs \
-m /lawson/usr:/dev/dsk/c1t2d0s4:ufs \
-m /opt:/dev/dsk/c1t2d0s5:ufs \
-n be2 root #> luactivate be2
root #> init 6
If you've already put your current slices under SVM or Veritas it will require additional steps to get the new slices under control as well.

My hp_tools E it's running out of space, what i have to do?

I get a window that says my disc space is full, always say that I have to run a backup, I all ready do it but the it run out of space again, what i have todo on my notebook 2000?

Welcome to the forum IronHide,
You should never be storing anything in the hp_tools partition; it should be able to take care of itself -- it is just large enough for what belongs there.
As to the rest: Backups do not do anything to make the data smaller, they just protect what you have in the event that something happens to your computer and you need to restore something from the backup media.
As a Refresher:
HP PCs - Backing Up Your Files (Windows 8)
HP PCs - Backing Up Your Files (Windows 7)
You did not tell us your Operating System -- the maintenance steps are about the same for both Windows 7 and Windows 8 once you get past the Winodws 8 "front bits", that is, the "Start Screen".
Essentially you need to remove some of the "extra stuff" that has accumulated over time, that is, the temporary files from your internet travels, the junk you put in the trash that is still lingering there and didn't really "go away", and maybe some of the left over "temporary installation files" from previous installations. There are programs to take care of all of this; you do not have to search your computer for files lurking in the corners.
You can also run a Disk Defragmentation program to realign the programs and files on your system -- this takes a while, but it does make things clean and tidy.
You can use these guides to help you get started on understanding what you might need to do:

Can you archive old calendar items in Entourage so you don't run out of space on your Blackberry?

Hi everyone,
I have a Sprint Pearl 8130 and I am syncing with PocketMac to Entourage 2004 on an iBook G4 running OS 10.3.
Most of my syncing issues are minor (for some reason, in contacts, work and home email addresses switch fields, but I can live with that) and I don't have too many complaints about PocketMac for now....
My question is - Does anyone know how to archive old calendar items so that my Blackberry doesn't run out of space? I have calendar items going back to the beginning of 2008. I don't need past calendar items on my Blackberry, except for reoccurring items, like birthdays and such, and maybe a month's worth of old appointments just for reference. My Blackberry has run out of space a couple of times and when it deletes the appointments from my Blackberry, syncing wants to either delete from the Mac or restore to the Blackberry. I know you can do this with a Palm and their Palm software, since I used to have one and I was able to archive items older than a week. Then you would be able to access them in a separate archive profile.
I have searched everywhere and the closest thing I can find is to purchase Missing Sync and set to match my sync date range. https://support.markspace.com/index.php?_m=knowledgebase&_a=viewarticle&kbarticleid=327. But that doesn't really solve my issue of running out of space on my Blackberry. The other thing that I could think of is to export the calendar items into a .rge file, then delete the calendar items from there, sync, and have PocketMac remove items from my Blackberry, but it would be a pain to easily access old calendar items.
I appreciate any thoughts, ideas and especially solutions!

I have the exact opposite issue you mentioned
my client wants his archived calender items to be synched to his 8830 world wide ed.
he is running RIM software (DesktopManager) v 6.4
BES 2007
current issue is that his archived old calendars are not synchronizing to his handheld; we tried to force his PC to synch those items manually through cable, which didn't help, since our BES policy force waireless synch policy to the device and wireless synch never can see the archived items files
I think if you can set the option on your device so it turns on the calendar wireless synch, and also make sure MAC does not select archive to synch
Calendar > Options > General settings or /Wireless synch set to ON;
if you running BES set Calendar Wireless synch off

I keep on getting this error when i try to copy files to my 2T Time Capsule, Please help im running out of space on my MacBook Pro....

I would get an external drive today and copy all your stuff off the TC.. forget trying to load more onto it. There is a good chance after 3years (A 2TB should be only about 2years tops), the disk or the TC itself is on the way out. Do it immediately. If TM is also failing to backup you need to recognise symtoms of impending doom.
Unfortunately the error messages are archane and it is hard to discover their meaning.
You also cannot verify a network drive.. you can verify the TM sparsebundle though so do that.
A5. http://pondini.org/TM/Troubleshooting.html
Reboot the whole network from off.. certainly if you run later OS it can simply lose the drive..
If you still fail to be able to copy to the TC.. then get that external and copy off it. Tell us if you can do that.

Time Machine failure: Disk run out of space unexpectedly

Hi
I'm having serious problems in the last few days with Time Machine backups.
I have an iMac '27 (late 2009) running Mountain Lion 10.8.2. The internal disk is 1 TB, and I use an external FW HD LaCie d2 Quadra 1 TB for my TM backups. After 3 years the disk is always full, but old backups were regularly removed. All the possible source of large variable files were excluded long time ago (VM disks, temporary directories, large download files).
TM used to work quite smoothly, but now, since 10 days, the backup fails with the message
"The backup disk ran out of space unexpectedly. Time Machine will try to make more space available by removing expired backups during the next scheduled backup."
I've checked previous messages in the forum about such an error, but the various cases do not seem to match my specific problem (or I was not able to find the message with working answer).
It seems that the "unexpected" problem is related to the fact that Time Machine is trying to backup again a large part of my filesystem, and it determines this fact only after the backup starts (so there is no pre-cleaning): when it happens I can see that the target size of the backup increases over time, while more and more data are written on the disk, until the disk is full.
I'll try to summarize my situations with an itemized list:
The current backup fails because it runs out of space, leaving an .inprogress file behind
The latest backup did not fail: the log report a successful backup (checked with Time Machine Buddy)
Examining the content of the latest backup, the one that did not fails, shows that some system directories, /Applications, /usr, and /bin are missing
So, possibly, the "unexpected" error happens because the system is backing up a lot of stuff (like 60GB), and TM discover this only after it starts writing the files
I've verified with Disk Utility both the TM disk and the internal HD, and they both report no problem.
After some digging around, I was able to make TM work again removing the .inprogress file (using the Pondini instructions), removing (using the "Star Wars" interface) the latest backup, the one with the incomplete content, and removing a few older backups to create some more free space.
The first time I thought it was a transient problem, but it happened again after a few days.
So the real issue is, why the latest successful backup is actually incomplete, with a large number of directories missing, but there is no hint of this in the logs?
I've read that old LaCie HDs might have problems with Mountain Lion, and with its power saving settings. May this be the cause? I did already turn off the power saving setting (put HD to sleep when possible) before the latest failure, but nothing changed.
I've also tried to update the d2 Quadra firmware, as indicated by other messages and on LaCie website, but the update fails and the provided instructions are less than useful (I'll try to contact LaCie on this issue).
My doubt is that this does not seem a power save issue... the failed backups happen while I'm actually using the machine (so no wake up/disk spin issue seems to happen), and the backups starts with no problem: they just finish abruptly with no apparent reason but with a success message.
Does anyone have problems similar to mine (successful but incomplete TM snapshots)? Is the problem triggered by the HD firmware, or there are other possible causes?
I plan to repair the TM one more time, and then keep it turned off to run only manual backups, but I'm aware that there is no guarantee that also a controlled manually started backup is not going to fail in a similar way.
Thanks for any suggestion.
Maurizio

I am not running out of space, but I do have the same problem. Every so often TM does a backup which is about 60 GB bigger than expected.   The extra is always a new backup of /System /Applications /usr etc. - that is the 'system files'.
The key thing is, as you have noticed:
Examining the content of the latest backup, the one that did not fail, shows that some system directories, /Applications, /usr, and /bin are missing
As a consequence the next backup is, in my case, 60 GB bigger because it includes all the system files.
It is as if 'systemFilesExcluded' was turned on for the previous backup (the one that 'did not fail'). But I have looked in the .exclusions.plist for this backup and it is exactly the same as for other backups and does include:
        <key>systemFilesExcluded</key>
        <false/>
It seems that TM is treating this as if <true/>.
Like you, I have done a disk verify and it finds no errors.
I think this must be a bug. I have had this on four occassions since upgrading to Mountain Lion. And it is doing a large one right now - I have caught it in the act!

Time Machine keeps running out of space

This is really annoying. Starting about 2-3 months ago, my Time Machine suddenly keeps running out of space. I have a MacBook Pro bought in 2009 summer with 500 GB Hard Drive. My Time Machine drive is als 500 GB. I currently have 117 GB left in my MacBook's hard drive, and 65 GB left in my Time Machine's drive.
As of this moment my Time Machine only have 1 backup that was done Yesterday. It's trying to create a new backup, but can't because apparently it needs 69 GB while I only have 65 GB.
Why does it need 69 GB? I can't imagine a reason why. I haven't downloaded anything more than 1 GB, if even that much, most likely not, and all I do on this MacBook is pretty much browsing. In any case, it's hard to imagine there's a 69 GB data change between yesterday and today. That's a lot of data by any standard.
Thanks for any help!

If your internal disk is 500GB with 117GB free then you are using 383GB
and your Time Machine disk is too small. It is recommended that your
Time Machine disk is 2 to 3 times bigger than the data you are backing up.
There are also some tools you can get that will display details from the
logs to show you what is being backed up, it may be worth getting one of
those to determine why the backup is so big. I think the first thing you
should do is get a bigger disk.
