Should I run a routine Disk Clean-up on my Xt

<FONT face="Comic Sans MS" color=#330099 size=2>I have a 30GB XTRA, and i was wondering, should i routinely run a disk clean-up on the player? If so, how often should i run one? Just curious. Would it improve the performance?

I have learned that a Clean Up is a good thing to do after a firmware update and on occasion after I have done a lot of track deleting and transferring. I would not call that routine but it will certainly not hurt.

  • Running out of disk space on an early  2008 intel based  320gb HD

    Get the new HD and an enclosure to put it into, then after formatting it to Mac OS Extended (Journaled) in GUID partition use either Carbon Copy Cloner or SuperDuper! to create a bootable clone of the internal HD. Then install the new HD into the computer. However rather than going through this excercise which is major surgery on an iMac I'd simply get external HD's to store large amounts of data. My iMac's internal HD is only 320GB however it staill has 219GB of free HD space because I store my large libraries on external HD's. Much easier and the performance doesn't suffer and I didn't run into any issues with breaking internal parts of making serious errors.

  • Computer running real slow. Tried Vista disk cleaning but attempts to fix error not working. How can I speed up PC?

    My computer is running really really slow. I did a Microsoft help search and I see performance recommendations to do a disk cleanup and disk defrag. Neither works on my computer. 
    Maybe I'm not on the right track. I went to support.microsoft.com and followed several instructions to go to cmd and type in some words.
    This is the message I get when I try to run disk clean:

     After I select ok, I get this message:

    I followed the instruction at support.microsoft.com  form for why do I receive an advance INF error. That did not work

    Fix failing security tests on BlazeDS/trunk by using a remote object to invalidate the FlexSession at the end of each test method which should cause each test method to run with a new/clean session. It looks like some test methods were leaving some things in a bad state which was causing the next test that ran to fail. These may be legitimate bugs/issues so we should investigate further to see what sequence of events gets things into a bad state but for these tests we want all of the test methods to run in isolation.

    In general theory, one now has the Edit button for their posts, until someone/anyone Replies to it. I've had Edit available for weeks, as opposed to the old forum's ~ 30 mins.
    That, however, is in theory. I've posted, and immediately seen something that needed editing, only to find NO Replies, yet the Edit button is no longer available, only seconds later. Still, in that same thread, I'd have the Edit button from older posts, to which there had also been no Replies even after several days/weeks. Found one that had to be over a month old, and Edit was still there.
    Do not know the why/how of this behavior. At first, I thought that maybe there WAS a Reply, that "ate" my Edit button, but had not Refreshed on my screen. Refresh still showed no Replies, just no Edit either. In those cases, I just Reply and mention the [Edit].
    Also, it seems that the buttons get very scrambled at times, and Refresh does not always clear that up. I end up clicking where I "think" the right button should be and hope for the best. Seems that when the buttons do bunch up they can appear at random around the page, often three atop one another, and maybe one way the heck out in left-field.
    While I'm on a role, it would be nice to be able to switch between Flattened and Threaded Views on the fly. Each has a use, and having to go to Options and then come back down to the thread is a very slow process. Jive is probably incapable of this, but I can dream.

  • Running out of disk space on root partition

    Hello,
    I'm running gnome 3 and every time I boot and logon with my user I'm getting a warning that my root partition is running out of disk space (~350MB free out of 7.5GB). This seems really strange to me since I've not installed very much software. I've got a 1TB hard drive and the big things are stored in my home directory.
    # df -h
    outputs:
    Filesystem size used free used% mounted
    udev 10M 0 10M 0% /dev
    run 10M 168K 9,9M 2% /run

    /dev/disk/by-uuid/072ba75b-a418-4795-ac0b-965815573010 seems a little bit odd to me there although I don't have much experience using linux based systems.
    # ls /dev/disk/by-uuid/072ba75b-a418-4795-ac0b-965815573010 -l

    and tab completion lists the files of my home directory. What's going on here?

    What ?? That's the first I have heard of this. What programs fail? Any examples?
    With sysvinit in Arch, this isn't such a big problem, but we're slowly starting to see evidence that this is becoming a worse and worse idea. In particular, if you set a non C locale for daemons, you will not be able to shut down cleanly, as mount(8) is trying to reference files in the locale cache (on /usr) and can't unmount /usr.
    Example bug report: https://bugs.archlinux.org/task/25149
    If you're using systemd, /usr on a separate partition is flat out not allowed. We're getting into the realm of filthy hacks ahead in order to try and support this -- see Tom's late comments in the above bug report.
    Oh, and be on the lookout for a cache cleaning util in pacman-contrib (name pending):

  • What is a good disk cleaner

    I am looking for a popular disk cleaner and willing to spend 100 .... what about disk tools pro???

    I agree wiith others, spend your money on an external drive for backup.
    Ideally, you should have an identical clone of your internal drive on an external drive, and also run Time Machine for incremental changes between updates of your clone.
    The only disk utility I would consider spending my money on is DiskWarrior.

  • Windows 8.1 can not access apps after using Disk Clean-up

    All was working well until I did a Disk Clean-up, now no apps from the Metro Start screen will load I just get a transparent icon holder on the Taskbar. I have tried uninstall the app which was Calendar I was allowed to uninstall but when I tried to re-install
    I just get error 0x80070005, after check lots of forums and Microsoft technet articles and all seem to point Windows Store being damaged or corrupted, I have run all the fixes but note work, when I run AppsDiagnostic.diagcab I just get [Service Registration
    is missing or corrupt] [Windows Store cache may be damaged] [Windows Store configuration may be damaged] I have now run out of what to try next. Can anyone help before I lose all my hair.

    Hi Rick,
    First of all, please run  "dism/online/cleanup-image/restorehealth"to check the health of the system files. Then take the following steps to have a check.
    1. We can run  “wsreset.exe” to reset the cache of Windows Store as S.Sengupta suggested to have a check .
    2. If the issue persists ,try this way to re-register the Windows Store to recover the entry of Windows Store :
    Right click on the “Start screen” , choose “Command prompt(Admin)”and in-put :
    powershell -ExecutionPolicy Unrestricted Add-AppxPackage -DisableDevelopmentMode -Register $Env:SystemRoot\WinStore\AppxManifest.XML
    3. If the issue persists ,kill Store and Store Broker from task manager . Rename the Cache folder to CacheOld at. C:\Users/(Your User Account)\AppData\Local\Packages\WinStore_xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx\LocaalState.
    Rename folder called Cache into CacheOld, Create an empty folder with name Cache. That’s all. If you want to revert changes just delete Cache and Rename  CacheOld into Cache.
    " 0x80070005" means access denied .Considering the store app is downloaded from the windows update .Please refer to the following link to gain the permissios of the registry keys to have a check.

    Hi,
    If you receive this message when starting the notebook, try the following.
    Shut down the notebook.  Tap away at f10 as you start the notebook to enter the bios menu.  Under the Advanced or Diagnostic tab you should find the facility to run a test on the Hard Drive.  Post back with the details of any error messages.
    If you receive this message while Windows is running , click the Start Menu, click Computer, left click Local Disc C once to highlight it, right click Local Disc C and select Properties.  Click the Tools tab and then click the button to 'Check the Drive for Errors'.  In the following window make sure both boxes are ticked and then click Start.  Agree to schedule the check at the next system restart and then restart the notebook - this process can take a couple of hours to complete before loading back into Windows.

  • How to set the limit for the warning 'running out of disk space'

    I am wondering if there's a way to set the number of GB before I get the system warning 'running out of disk space'.
    I saw this question asked in 2010 and it did not get an answer. It was archived so I am asking again. I know how to monitor the available space on my startup disk, and how to empty the trash to clear up disk space. I am looking for an OS X setting that I can change.

    My guess is that you want to lower the limit. IMHO I think the limit is alreay too low.
    If you are seeing this warning regularly then your disk is severely overfull and needs to be replaced with a larger one.
    Running the free space low eenough to get the warning greatly increases the chances for disk corruption. Once the disk gets corrupted then then next thing that happens is data lose.
    You have a serious problem with your Mac that should be dealt with immediately.
    Backing your data up would also be a good idea if you are not already doing that.

  • Disk Clean up

    I'm runnign on Vista, and 3 days ago Ihave 83.4 GB Free space in my hard disk, and just an hour ago, I checked and it read 74 GB free in those three days I did not download any program or saved any file, and in a matter of 3 days i lost 9 Gb, so I defragmented my disk and run the disk clean up, deleted the shadowstorage in the disk clean up more options tab, and after that my free space read only 78.8 Gb and is again loosing more free space by the minute. So where could my disk space gone to? How can I regain the lost free space I had? Is there a burglar?

    I don't know what else to tell you. Did you learn anything from these tips?
       How to locate and correct disk space problems on NTFS volumes in Windows XP
    As you probably know, Vista Business creates shadow copies of files between restore points.
       Previous versions of files: frequently asked questions
    In case you don't have a good reference to the shadow-storage commands, go to Vssadmin.
    Here's a thought (but it might take half-a-day). Do a search for all files ( *.*) in non-indexed locations including hidden and sort it by date created. You might learn something by viewing recent files.

  • Running out of disk space - External Drive Advice

    Hi,
    I've been importing all of our HDV video in "Large" fomat (Not the original or full size). We have an Apple TV so wanted to get the qaulity up for our large TV.
    Anyway, we have lots of digital pics, huge iTunes library and now I'm starting to run out of disk space with all of my iMovie imports.
    I would like to buy a huge external drive to help offload:
    Is there any reason I should be concerned about storing my video on external drive? Any editing performance issues?
    I use time machine, if I buy a huge external, can I split it in half and use part for time machine and part for imovie?
    Just curious.
    Thx,
    Brent

    I agree that you can make this work. Your external drive must be formatted as Mac OS Extended (journaled). You can do this as you are creating your 2 partitions in Disk Utility, if it has a different formatting when you buy it.
    If you want to move your Events from your internal drive to your new external drive, you need to do it from within iMovie so you do not break the links to your projects. To do this, open iMovie and click VIEW/EVENTS BY VOLUME. You should be able to see a small icon in your Event Library List for your external drive. You can Command-Drag your event icons in the event library list to this icon for your external, and all the links to your projects will be preserved. (hold down the command key while dragging). If you do a simple drag and drop, it will copy not move.

    With Exchange, you will not see disk space reclaimed until an offline defrag is run against the Exchange databases.

  • Running out of disk space -- best way to remove Xcode/Dashcode?

    Hi,
    I am running out of disk space and looking for ways to get some back. Actually, the problem is that the update to Leopard is requiring 1.9GB of free space and I only have 1.5GB. So I figure I can get about 2-3GB back by removing XCode.
    Can someone tell me the best way to do this?
    Thanks.

    There is a section in the "About Xcode Tools.pdf" file in your /Developer folder called "Uninstalling XCode 3.0 developer tools". You should have a look at that and choose which (how much) unstallation suits you - there are several different command-lines suggested in that document with different effects.

  • Running low on disk space...

    My G4 main hard drive is down to a few GB. I have plenty of space on another internal and several external drives. I noticed my Library is about 37 GB. Are there any files (besides what is in the App folder)that can be moved or deleted to make more space on my main hard drive?
    Thanks advance to anyone that can help with this,
    Craig

    Hi Craig!
    Insufficient available space, can cause performance issues, system corruption, and possible loss of data.
    Depending on Mac system usage habits, it is a general recommendation, to keep 10% to as much as 20%, of the Total capacity, available at all times.
    Review the suggestions, in the documents that I have linked to below.
    Authored by Dr Smoke:
    Problems From Insufficient RAM And Free Hard Disk Space

    Is the Mac shutdown overnight, or does it run 24/7?
    Have you ever run any routine Maintenance procedures?
    If you turn the PowerBook off nightly, the Background Maintenance Tasks, are never run.
    These can also be run, using a Third-Party utility, or manually using Terminal, to run the CRON Commands.
    I use MacJanitor, when necessary.
    INSTRUCTIONS TO RUN CRON MANUAL COMMANDS
    Quit all applications/programs.
    Navigate to HD > Applications > Utilities.
    Double click on Terminal, to open.
    At the prompt, type:
    sudo periodic daily
    Press Return.
    Enter your Admin password when prompted, then press Return.
    This will execute the daily script that is sheduled to run every night.
    When completed, repeat this procedure, but change the command to:
    sudo periodic weekly
    This one rebuilds a database or two, and usually takes somewhat longer to complete. It is scheduled to run once a week.
    Repeat again, with command:
    sudo periodic monthly
    Or they can all be run in one pass, which is preferable, with this command:
    sudo periodic daily weekly monthly
    When the tasks complete, and return to the prompt, you may quit Terminal.
    Restart the Mac, and run Repair Permissions.
    TO REPAIR PERMISSIONS ON THE STARTUP DISK
    1.Open Disk Utility, located in Applications/Utilities, and select the startup disk in the left column.
    2.Click First Aid.
    3.Click Verify Disk Permissions to test permissions or Repair Disk Permissions to test and repair permissions. (I never "Verify". Just run "Repair".)
    When "Repair Permissions" is complete. Quit "Disk Utility".
