safari could not download the file because there is not enough disk space I have a 1TB hard drive and only use a small amout of space.Mac os x mountain lion (12.8.2), HD 978.59 free out of 999.35GB.Please help Brenton

Please read this whole message before doing anything.
This procedure is a test, not a solution. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
Step 1
The purpose of this step is to determine whether the problem is localized to your user account.
Enable guest logins* and log in as Guest. For instructions, launch the System Preferences application, select Help from the menu bar, and enter “Set up guest users” (without the quotes) in the search box. Don't use the Safari-only “Guest User” login created by “Find My Mac.”
While logged in as Guest, you won’t have access to any of your personal files or settings. Applications will behave as if you were running them for the first time. Don’t be alarmed by this; it’s normal. If you need any passwords or other personal data in order to complete the test, memorize, print, or write them down before you begin.
Test while logged in as Guest. Same problem?
After testing, log out of the guest account and, in your own account, disable it if you wish. Any files you created in the guest account will be deleted automatically when you log out of it.
*Note: If you’ve activated “Find My Mac” or FileVault, then you can’t enable the Guest account. The “Guest User” login created by “Find My Mac” is not the same. Create a new account in which to test, and delete it, including its home folder, after testing.
Step 2
The purpose of this step is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party system modifications that load automatically at startup or login.
Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards. Boot in safe mode* and log in to the account with the problem. The instructions provided by Apple are as follows:
Shut down your computer, wait 30 seconds, and then hold down the shift key while pressing the power button.
When you see the gray Apple logo, release the shift key.
If you are prompted to log in, type your password, and then hold down the shift key again as you click Log in.
Safe mode is much slower to boot and run than normal, and some things won’t work at all, including wireless networking on certain Macs. The next normal boot may also be somewhat slow.
The login screen appears even if you usually log in automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin.
*Note: If FileVault is enabled, or if a firmware password is set, or if the boot volume is a software RAID, you can’t boot in safe mode.
Test while in safe mode. Same problem?
After testing, reboot as usual (i.e., not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of steps 1 and 2.

"Safari could not download the file because there is not enough disc space"

"Safari could not download the file because there is not enough disc space"
I have 60gb available on my MBA and I have "read and write" privileges for the download folder. This error seemingly came out of nowhere. It doesn't matter if the file is 1gb or 10mb, I'll get the error. All I have to do is remove the .download extension and I can use the file which is complete despite the error.
This is really annoying so any help would be appreciated.

I never used to have a problem with creating a new folder and moving the download into it
But you'll have a problem if you do it now.

Safari could not download the file because there is not enough free disk

I'm trying to download to the desktop and there is 257GB of space available. It will allow me to download to a folder in my documents. The finder keeps asking for my password when trying to trash items, I type it and then get a message that I don't have permission. It just started doing this today.

I have tried the disk permissions repair, but it doesn't help. I am the administrator of the computer, but I made sure that on my account is was still the administrator. I've read some of the forums pertaining to using terminal to trash, but I am not familiar with that so I didn't want to mess it up any worse. It just seems to effect everything on my desktop. I can download into folders and trash documents that are in folder, just can't download or trash anything on my desktop. It's strange. I have never worked with PC only macs and have never had any trouble until now.

Lighting effects not working, 'Could not apply the workspace because there is not enough memory (RAM)' with 4GB RAM?

Tried to use 'render/lighting effects' on 5 more or less new different laptops now. All kind of Window versions.
They all have at least 4GB RAM. The Graphic Card is compatible.
Layer to work on is RGB-Type.
It's all about Photoshop CC 2014, trial version.
When I go to 'Lighting effects' it says first:
'The 3D features require that 'Use Graphics Processor' is enabled in the Performance preferences. Your video card must meet the minimum requirements and you may need to check that your driver is working correctly.'
- I switched the 'Use Graphics Processor' on and off and restarted new - nothing happens.
- Video card is compatible.
Second it says:
''Could not apply the workspace because there is not enough memory (RAM)'
- RAM on all the computers I tested it with is at least 4GB
Please help!

We would need to know the amount of Video ram you have. If it is above 512 MB, then check for driver updates.
Windows OS
Click Start.
On the Start menu, click Run.
In the Open box, type "dxdiag" (without the quotation marks), and then click OK.
The DirectX Diagnostic Tool opens. Click the Display tab.
On the Display tab, information about your graphics card is shown in the Device section. You can see the name of your card, as well as how much video memory it has.
Once you know the kind of graphics card you have, visit the manufacturer's website to download the latest driver. Here are links for downloading drivers from the most common graphics card manufacturers:

Microsoft.WebApplication.targets 182 5 error MSB3030 Could not copy the file because it was not found

We use Visual Studio Online and the integrated continuous integration (build server) from Microsoft. We have a solution that contains multiple projects two of which are latest MVC projects. I updated a bunch of our Nuget packages yesterday and now we are
getting a build error one of our MVC projects. Any help is greatly appreciated as I have exhausted my resources trying to understand why the error is occurring!
We use nuget for our external libraries, the solution and projects and set to use Nuget Restore (no packages persisted in TFS).
We updated Angular to the latest version using Nuget updates inside of visual studio. Here an excerpt from packages.config in the project file. The first block is what was found in the packages.config before the update and the second block is after the
update.
<package id="Angular.UI.Bootstrap" version="0.11.0" targetFramework="net451" />
<package id="angularjs" version="1.2.23" targetFramework="net451" />
<package id="Angular.UI.Bootstrap" version="0.12.0" targetFramework="net451" />
<package id="angularjs" version="1.3.8" targetFramework="net451" />
After I noticed the build error I scheduled another build with Diagnostic level logging turned on, here is the excerpt from the build highlighting the errors

I looked at the change log of my check-in and noticed that the errors occur for Angular script references that were updated. New angular references (adds in the TFS changeset) are being copied without errors. Example: angular-animate.js was edited
in the Angular update in TFS but angular-aria.js is a new file in the package so new file in TFS.
Using Source Control Explorer I verified the location of the files, the new and the existing files from the Angular nuget package can all be found in the Scripts folder of the MVC project. I can also view the content of each file file without issue.
The references in the project file (csproj) are all consistent too, I can't see any differences between the files that cause failure and those that do not. The following block is a direct copy/paste from the csproj file
<Content Include="Scripts\angular-animate.js" />
<Content Include="Scripts\angular-animate.min.js" />
<Content Include="Scripts\angular-aria.js" />
<Content Include="Scripts\angular-aria.min.js" />
<Content Include="Scripts\angular-cookies.js" />
<Content Include="Scripts\angular-cookies.min.js" />
<Content Include="Scripts\angular-csp.css" />
<Content Include="Scripts\angular-loader.js" />
<Content Include="Scripts\angular-loader.min.js" />
<Content Include="Scripts\angular-messages.js" />
<Content Include="Scripts\angular-messages.min.js" />
<Content Include="Scripts\angular-mocks.js" />
<Content Include="Scripts\angular-resource.js" />
<Content Include="Scripts\angular-resource.min.js" />
<Content Include="Scripts\angular-route.js" />
<Content Include="Scripts\angular-route.min.js" />
<Content Include="Scripts\angular-sanitize.js" />
<Content Include="Scripts\angular-sanitize.min.js" />
<Content Include="Scripts\angular-scenario.js" />
<Content Include="Scripts\angular-touch.js" />
<Content Include="Scripts\angular-touch.min.js" />
Is there anything I forgot to mention that would help me figure out what is going on?
What else can I try with the exception of rolling back the changeset and re-adding the nuget package?
Thank you very much in advance!

Hi Igor,
For your situation, make sure you checked in your source files after updating Angular. You can also check the whether the foders for the Angular reference are under source control in source settings tab of your build definition.
You can also build locally using MSBuild to see if the building works fine. We have to make sure local build succeed before VSO build since TFS build use MSBuild as its default compiler. Check the links below to see if they are helpful:

Error window "could not write the file. There is not enough scratch memory available

When I try to use the "save for web" I get this error window. I have deleted several files and have over 700 GB of memory available on my local C drive. I have had PS CC for over a year and have never seen this before. Any help would be appreciated.

Hi AndreaJ,
If it cannot create a temp file, which indeed is tied to the limitations for 32bit apps and in Save for Web cannot exceed 2GB,
That's what it's telling you, and this has absolutely nothing to do with your system swap file.
A possible solution may be to manually flatten the file before exporting or it might also help to clean up the Drive you are using as Scratch disk.
In Addition to this:

i have already made a few changes to an image but when i try to Distort>Wave then click ok it comes up with that message. i have looked on other forums which say to allocate more memory to photoshop but that doesn't work for me. Any ideas?

You did not say which verson of PS you are using. If CS5 and a 32 bit system you are handicapping youself.
Works best in 64 bit mode with 6-8 gigs of RAM.
If you are limited you keeping what you should also check you have enough free area on the scratch disk.

Safari unable to download the file.. not enough free disk space?

Very odd! After filling out Apple's Online Rebate Submission Completion Form, I was asked to print it out by clicking on the supplied link, but instead, I got this prompt:
Safari could not download the file because there is not enough free disk space!
Of course, this is totally ludicrous because I just bought this computer and it has a 500 Gb hard drive!
Any idea what's going on?

Tried using Firefox instead of Safari. The prompt I got in this instance ultimately had to do with changing the permissions on my download folder? Odd.
When I tried to add myself (as the administrator) to the list, the info window crashed. When I clicked on "everyone" and changed permissions to read and write (instead of just read), I was able to download the form as a pdf.

I am getting the following message "safari could not download the file (440MB) because there is not enough disk space. disk utility says i have 249.8 GB of available disk space. any suggestions as to what is the problem would be appreciated

i am getting the following message "safari could not download the file (440 MB) because there is not enough disk space. please delete files or download to another disk." when i check system information it tells me i have 249.82 GB of disk space available. any suggestions as to what i can do to resolve this problem.

thanks for your suggestion. that is the same advice that i got from the geek squad at the local apple store.
i did what he instructed but it did not work. i have since called apple support twice regarding the problem. they had me start the computer in safe mode, going into the library and deleting a phlist file (i think) do a repair disk permissions, do a repair disk, empty the cache, and finally the last guy told me to unplug the computer from the wall socket and restart.
when i mentioned the advice you and the apple store guy gave me they sort of poo pooed it saying that was done when they did all this other stuff.
i am now waiting for the download to be completed to see if unplugging the computer had any effect.
thanks again for your kindness in answering my concern.

Safari could not download the file “iTunes12.0.1.dmg” because there is not enough free disk space. How do i resolve this issue?

From the menu bar, select
 ▹ System Preferences... ▹ Time Machine
If there is a closed padlock icon in the lower left corner of the preference pane, click it to unlock the settings and authenticate. Turn Time Machine OFF, then back ON. Close the window.
Restart the computer. Try the download again.

Safari could not download the file "Firefox 20.0.dmg" because there is not enough free disk space.

What does this error message mean. I have pleanty of free disk space - Safari could not download the file “Firefox 20.0.dmg” because there is not enough free disk space.

That misleading error message can be the result of moving a download while it's in progress. Right-click the download package and select Show Package Contents from the contextual menu. The file you downloaded may be in the folder that opens.
