There is not enough free space on your Aperture Library Volume Question

When importing more images to Aperture I get this:
There is not enough free space on your Aperture Library Volume to import the selected items
Why is this? I am a big time newbee and I am trying to take a crash coarse in Aperture. How do I bring in more photos. I only have a few hundred in there now.
Thanks for any help

Lots more and very specific info is necessary for troubleshooting. Probably your hard drives is too full.

  • Get an error message when importing from iPhoto says, "There is not enough free space on your Aperture Library volume to import the selected items. It is estimated that you need at least 44GB of free space."

    I get an error message when importing from iPhoto that says, "There is not enough free space on your Aperture Library volume to import the selected items. It is estimated that you need at least 44GB of free space." the drive is empty, I just reformatted it to Mac OSX journaled.

    I'm guessing this is an extrenal drive, correct? If so make sure the library you're importimng into is really located on the external drive. By default Aperture creates its library in your home pictures folder.

    I have over 250 GB free space yet aperture still tells me i nedd more than 4 BG when importing my pictures (2 gb ) from iphoto library to apertura library ???
    Any suggestions ??

    And how much free space is on your system drive?
    I strongly suspect that the system drive is nearly full: My guess: Aperture could not access the library on our external drive and tried to write to your system drive.
    Then your options are:
    create plenty of free space on the system drive
    or find out why the extrenal cannot be accessed by Aperture
    Reasons, why the external can not be read may be:
    it is a network volume (that is not recommended for Aperture)
    or the formatting is wrong. You need MacOS X extended formatting:
    If necessary, reformat your external volume using disk utility and repair the permissions on the  volume.

  • There is not enough free space on your Aperture Library volume to import the selected items. It is estimated that you need at least 10GB of free space.

    Hi - I am hoping someone can help.  I have nothing in my Aperture library currently.  I have 77 GB of free space on my hard drive.  Why will it not let me import my pictures?  I've deleted trash, and wracked my brain to figure it out, but I'm stumped.  Any help would be appreciated!
    Thanks!

    Is the drive your are attempting to use internal or external. If external is it formatted OS Extended? Aperture requires that the library be on a probably formatted drive.
    If thats not the cause post back your hardware setup, type of drive, etc.

  • TS1503 After an update on my iPhone 4, (I updated using my MacBook Pro) I first received the message, iTunes was not able to load all of iTunes library back on your phone, not enough free space on your phone. (not an exact quote, essentially the same mean

    The complete iTunes library was already on my iPhone 4. Why would it all not go back on? It left out around 4 or 5 songs from my play list. How do I get them back on my iPhone?
    Note: All software on both devices is up to date.
    Then, I tried to sync my iPhone to my MacBook Pro. I got the message, cannot sync your iPhone because there is not enough free space in the iTunes library (not exact quote, but same meaning).
    I researched how to get more free space on my phone which might 'supposedly' alleviate the above issues. I removed some less used apps, and some photos and videos from my phone. Then, I tried backing up again. I still got the message there wasn't enough free space on my phone, and the missing songs from the iTunes library were not returned to my phone. I gave another try at syncing my iPhone. I still got the same message that the phone couldn't be synced because  there wasn't enough free space in the iTunes library.
    Any suggestions on how to remedy these problems will be appreciated!
    BTW... I read a suggestion on the internet to restore my phone (I did  this recently when something went wrong during a phone update and the whole process went 'hey-wire', shutting down before the update was complete. However, at that time, all of my songs and apps were still on my phone and stored in the iTunes library.) If I restore my iPhone now, will the apps and songs no longer on my phone be lost?
    Sorry there are so many questions within the same 'New Discussion' thread I'm starting! But, I think all of these issues are somehow related.
    Thanks!

    I Have fumbled all day to this resolved, I'll run the battery down and see what happens afterwards. This is not good !

  • Ut 4000 photos in my iphotos; iPhoto cannot import your photos because there is not enough free space on the volume containing your iPhoto library.

    I keep getting the following error message despite only having about 4000 pics in my iphotos; iPhoto cannot import your photos because there is not enough free space on the volume containing your iPhoto library. I have tried moving my iphotos library to an external Hard Drive and starting a new library but still it will not allow any more to be loaded.

    What version of iPhoto?
    try Back up your iPhoto library, Depress and hold the option (alt) and command keys and launch iPhoto - rebuild your iPhoto library database

    iPhoto cannot import your photos because there is not enough free space on the volume containing your iPhoto library. I have .999.35 T left. 3.18 gigs used in photo storage. How do I fix this?

  • Why am i getting this warning? iPhoto cannot import your photos because there is not enough free space on the volume containing your iPhoto library.

    I can no longer import photos from my PC because I get this message:  iPhoto cannot import your photos because there is not enough free space on the volume containing your iPhoto library.  How can I fix this problem?

    Option 1
    Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the command and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild. Choose to Rebuild iPhoto Library Database from automatic backup.
    If that fails:
    Option 2
    Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. This will create a new library based on data in the albumdata.xml file. Not everything will be brought over - no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your albums and keywords back.
    Because this process creates an entirely new library and leaves your old one untouched, it is non-destructive, and if you're not happy with the results you can simply return to your old one. .

  • HT3680 I get the message 'your startup disc us full' at random time point I'm trying to import photos to iPhoto and get'iPhoto cannot import your photos because there is not enough free space on the volume containing your iPhoto library'.

    I get the message 'your startup disc us full' at random time points. I'm trying to import photos to iPhoto and get'iPhoto cannot import your photos because there is not enough free space on the volume containing your iPhoto library'. This is a new Macbook Pro and all my files were transferred from my old Macbook.

    What size internal drive do you have and how much of it is used?

  • HT2635 What does this mean? "I Photo cannot import your photos because there is not enough free space on the volume containing your I photo library"

    I cannot import my pictures and movies from a DVD - What does this mean when I get a computer message on my Mac -
    "I photo cannot import your photos because there is not enough free space on the volume containing your I photo library"

    It means pretty much what it says - your HD is full.
    This can arise because your HD is full - how big is your HD? How much free space on it?
    Or it can be a mis-report due to to other issues.

  • I have IPhoto version 9.5.1. I cannot export pictures, the following message appears: "iPhoto cannot import your photos because there is not enough free space on the volume containing your iPhoto library." What am I suppose to do? I have a Mac mini.

    I have IPhoto version 9.5.1. I cannot export pictures since the following message appears: "iPhoto cannot import your photos because there is not enough free space on the volume containing your iPhoto library." What am I suppose to do? I have a Mac mini which properly used can perform any reasonable task, the problem is I do not know what to do.
    Any help will be appreciated.

    Hmm... that was labelled:
    As a Test:
    In bold and all
    Try repair the main Library:
    Option 1
    Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the command and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild. Choose to Repair Database. If that doesn't help, then try again, this time using Rebuild Database.
    If that fails:
    Option 2
    Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. (In early versions of Library Manager it's the File -> Rebuild command. In later versions it's under the Library menu.)
    This will create an entirely new library. It will then copy (or try to) your photos and all the associated metadata and versions to this new Library, and arrange it as close as it can to what you had in the damaged Library. It does this based on information it finds in the iPhoto sharing mechanism - but that means that things not shared won't be there, so no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your events, albums and keywords, faces and places back.
    Because this process creates an entirely new library and leaves your old one untouched, it is non-destructive, and if you're not happy with the results you can simply return to your old one.

  • IPod cannot be updated because there is not enough free space

    iPod cannot be updated because there is not enough free space to hold all of the songs in the iTunes music library. But my iPod does not show any songs. This all strated when I plugged the iPod in to the computer to charge it. I lost my songs on the iPod and cannot update it my play list. My iPod shows up in my iTunes, and show that there is songs there. But why does my iPod not show the songs, it is blank. I have run the gambit today, reset reinstall, updates, the works .... Can anyone please help? I just got this thing and it was working great until this. This has been the most frustrating day I have ever had.

    Auto update playlist and music. I tried waht you sugested earlier, and it gave me a diferent message. I have it working, I moved one of the folders out of the iPosd_Control and I am able to see the list in iTunes. One of the songs in the folder could have been corrupted. I thank you for your help. I still do not understand the multi folders. This is a good one for anyone else who gets that message.

  • IPod touch cannot be synced because there is not enough free space to hold all of the items in the iTunes Library

    Hi, I have just transferred my whole iTunes library from my old computer to my new one and am trying to sync my iPod to the new one. However I get an error message saying "iPod touch cannot be synced because there is not enough free space to hold all of the items in the iTunes Library (additional 5.38GB required). I currently have 8.5GB free on my iPod so I don't understand why it cannot sync.

    Hey Georgiarose94, If what's going on, is what I think it is, when you sync the information it's over written, it can take 2 to 3 times more space the get the info on your iPod, once it's there the info only occupies the space it needs. Kind if of like moving, when you first step in the room with boxes of stuff there's no room. But after you get everything put away all is well. If you haven't already, connect your iPod to your computer, from your iPod Summary page, go down to Options and check reduce bit rate to (select 128 kbps). (Wording maybe a little different). Will greatly reduce memory space needed on your iPod, and you really do not hear the difference in sound quality. Other option, go to music and select manual so you can pick which music you place on the iPod. You need to reduce by 5.38GB of information to finish your download. Hope this helps. Cheers.

  • Question I have a dilemma . I added a lot of songs in my iTunes now when I synced my ipod this message appear "Elma's ipod cannot be synced because there is not enough free space to hold all the items in the iTunes library (additiona

    I addesd a lot of songs in my itunes, now when I synced my ipod this message appear "elma's ipod cannot be synced because there is not enough free space to hold all the items in the itunes library (additional 382m is required). Then I uncheck a lot of song and synced my ipod again same message appeared. Do I need to buy a new ipod with more memories? Somebody told me to check apply after I unchecked some of the songs but I cannot find the word APPLY. please help I'm not a very technical person.

    The Sync button becomes the Apply button, if you change the iPod's settings in iTunes.  If you are only unchecking songs in the iTunes music library, you click on the Sync button.
    When you select the iPod in iTunes, you see the iPod's Summary screen on the main part of the iTunes window.  There is a checkbox there for Sync only checked songs.  Did you check that checkbox?  If you want iTunes to ignore the songs you unchecked when syncing your iPod, that setting needs to be enabled.  If you change that setting, you'll see the the Sync botton has changed to Apply.  Click Apply.
    That method of unchecking songs works, but it may become annoying over time, as you need to uncheck more and more songs.  If you want advice on some other more convenient ways to make it work, you can post back.
