Trying to open: ".... insufficient disk space..." (?)

I've just downloaded Mainstage 3, and in trying to open I get the message:
"There is insufficient disk space to install the basic content.
Delete unnecesary file from the hard disk and empty the Trash."
OK, so:
- how much room is needed to open Mainstage 3?
- I don't want the additional Apple Loops, etc. seeing as I can use what's come with Logic and GarageBand. Can Mainstage install without having to install the additional content?
- can Mainstage be 'tricked' into opening without searching for any additional content or something like that?
Thanks all!

It is mentioned in the App Store:
Minimum 5GB of disk space (35GB of optional content available via in-app download)
Without that content you would end up without the sounds/instruments, that doesn't really make sense. MainStage doesn't download the Apple Loops.

  • Insufficient disk space when opening Aperture library in iPhoto

    I just created a fresh library with 3000 photos (6GB) in Aperture. I then tried to open that library using iPhoto by holding down the Option key on launch but got an alert: "Insufficient Disk Space: There is not enough free space on the disk that contains this library to upgrade it. It is estimated that you need at least 6GB of free space."
    OK, I only have 4GB of free space on my HD. But why would iPhoto need to upgrade the library to begin with? I'm using the latest version of both Aperture (3.5.1) and iPhoto (9.5.1) and I thought they use the exact same library. And even if iPhoto needs to upgrade the library, why would it need an extra 6GB when the Aperture library is only 6GB? If opening the library in iPhoto results in increasing the library size from 6GB to 12GB, I'd rather not do it. Am I missing something?

    iPhoto and Aperture are using the same library, but Aperture has preference settings, that prevent previews or faces from being created. If you open an Aperture library in iPhoto, the library size may increase, since iPhoto may be creating files, that Aperture did not create.  Probably iPhoto's estimated was too pessimistic, but opening an Aperture library can increase the library size.
    But photograhis is right. You should not be running any applications at all, if you do not have at least 20GBof free disk space.

  • Trying to load photos, get message Insufficient Disk space

    When I try to import pix. get a box saying Insufficient disk space. Iphoto cannot load images not enough free space on the volume containing your iphoto library.

    Well that shoots that theory. Next,  reboot your Mac and try the library again just to see if rebooting helped.
    If still not working launch iPhoto with the Option key held down and create a new, test library.  Import some photos and check to see if the same problem persists. If you get the same message with the new, essentially empty library then the problem may lie in the iPhoto application. If you get no message with the new library the problem is with your library. 
    If you don't get that message with the new library you'll have to start over with a new library.  First open your iPhoto Library with the Finder and check inside the Originals folder to make sure your photos are still there. 
    Click to view full size
    If they are there do the following:
    Start over from scratch with new library
    Start over with a new library and import the Originals folder from your original library as follows:
    1.  Move the existing library folder to the desktop.
    2. Open the library package like this.
    Click to view full size
    3. Launch iPhoto and, when asked, select the option to create a new library.
    4. Drag the Originals (iPhoto 09 and earlier) or the Masters (iPhoto 11) folder from the iPhoto Library on the desktop into the open iPhoto window.
    Click to view full size
    This will create a new library with the same Events as the original library but will not keep the metadata, albums, books slideshows and other projects. Your old library will still be available for further attempts at resurrecting it.

  • Bridge CS6:  Output to Web or PDF - insufficient disk space..

    I have recently installed the CS6 cloud version of Bridge, but now get this error when trying to produce (or refresh) a contact sheet using Output to Web or PDF - There is insufficient disk space to complete this operation
    The error occurs no matter what the file size is, or if multiple of single files are selected - and as the sole application open. I'm running the application in OS X 10.8, with 8GB of RAM and 512MB of VRAM, so disk space doesn't seem to be the issue?
    I've just installed the lastest Bridge update, but this has made no difference. Thanks for your feedback in advance..

    I've found an old post which highlights a USERS folder conflict?
    Without any significant knowledge about working over a network I do know Bridge uses a Cache file on a user related base. So it might be possible it confuses the two folders if you have both company and private network based on the same user name.
    But as said, just a wild guess. If you need to work over a network try the blog from the Image Archivist, he also used to hang around here in the past:

  • Why am I getting a message "Insufficient Disk Space"

    I installed a new hard drive yesterday, and used Time Machine to restore all the information from my old hard drive.  Today I tried to open iPhoto and had a message that it was not found so I used the install disk for iPhoto and reinstalled.  I have my former iPhoto Library, but when I try to import new photos from my desk top, I get the message "Insufficient Disk Space" "iPhoto cannot import your photos because there is not enough free space on the volume containing your iPhoto library".  I don't understand since I have 354 GB available on my hard drive. What do I need to do to fix?

    That's an indication that the library is damaged. Make a temporary, backup copy (if you don't already have a backup copy) of the library and apply the two fixes below in order as needed:
    Fix #1
    Launch iPhoto with the Command+Option keys held down and rebuild the library.
    Select the options identified in the screenshot. 
    Fix #2
    Using iPhoto Library Manager  to Rebuild Your iPhoto Library
    Download iPhoto Library Manager and launch.
    Click on the Add Library button, navigate to your Home/Pictures folder and select your iPhoto Library folder.
    Now that the library is listed in the left hand pane of iPLM, click on your library and go to the File ➙ Rebuild Library menu option
    In the next  window name the new library and select the location you want it to be placed.
    Click on the Create button.
    Note: This creates a new library based on the LIbraryData.xml file in the library and will recover Events, Albums, keywords, titles and comments but not books, calendars or slideshows. The original library will be left untouched for further attempts at fixing the problem or in case the rebuilt library is not satisfactory.

  • Insufficient disk space to perform full backup

    Hi to all
    i'm trying to backup my acs 5.2 "backup acs repository repository  application acs" but acs gives me a critical error.
    % Creating backup with timestamped filename: acs-121022-1431.tar.gpg

    % Application backup error
    how do i lower the data witdow in ACS view?
    thanks in adv
    Antero

    Hi
    the problem is solved now, i've openned a TAC and the cisco Guy told me how to solve it.
    in summary you need to have root access to ACS and then erase de acsview database and put a clean one.
    my acsview db has grown to 175GB., this was caused by  the misconfiguration of acsview database doesn't being backuped and the  purgin was, in this case, not being also done.
    so Brian if you hav e the same problem then you need to open a TAC case.
    Thanks

  • Insufficient disk space on launching Aperture 3

    In the last couple of days I have been getting an error message on launching Aperture 3.1.3. It is running on a Snow Leopard system, 10.6.8.
    The message reads: "Insufficient disk space.There is not enough free space on your Aperture Library Volume."
    I have 100+ GB free on a 750 GB drive on which that particular library resides. ( I have several libraries due to the large number of raw photos that I have, somewhere north of 60k) It doesn't matter which library I choose, I get the message.
    I am NOT trying to import more files, nor am I trying to upgrade any libraries. I am just trying to launch the app. It does launch after I dismiss the message. What is going on, and how do I get rid of this message. I am having a hard time believing that 100 GB of free space isn't enough for Aperture.

    What I was thinking, and this probably confirms it, is that 100 GB free is not enough to allow the upgrade to a 750 GB Library.
    First check to see if you can successfully click to open one of those that have 3.1.3 as version.
    It did require an upgrade, but I don't rmember it taking very long.  I recently clicked to open some that were 3.1.2, and it took no time at all -- but they were small.

  • Erroneous "insufficient disk space" error with WaveStudio 7

    This has been bugging me for over 2 years. I get the "Insufficient disk space" error with Vista x32 and x64 and now with Windows 7 x64 when I've edited a wav file and then try to save it. I have plenty of disk space.
    I've searched till I'm blue in the face but cannot find an answer and am tired of the lame work-around. I know how to copy and paste the entire edited wav into another file and then save it. It's annoying, but it works. What gets me is why is this not fixed?
    Running CTWave.exe as administrator does not work. Running in Windows XP SP3 compatibility mode does not work.
    I have been a faithful Creative Labs user for more years than I care to remember, but this one is shaking my faith. Is there anybody who can explain why this happens, or offer a fix?
    Many thanks and keep on rockin',
    Dave

    You may wish to try these steps in order to solve your issue:
    1. Make sure your computer has the latest Java runtime. To do this, just google search "Download Java", go to the first URL and download that free software. This step should solve most of the "insufficient disk space" problems.
    2. If step 1 failed to work, you can open "My computer", right click on the hard disk you were trying to write your files into. From the "File System" tab, check to see it's "NTFS" but not "FAT32".
    3. If the above two steps do not work, try creating a new partition from your primary hard disk. To do this, click "Start" -> then right click "My Computer" -> "Manage" -> "Disk Management" -> Make sure you shrink a new volume for at least 50 GB to 100 GB free disk space, again please have the NTFS file system. Once you successfully created this new partition, do a format then try writing your music files onto this Disk.
    4. I think the above 3 steps are able to solve your issue. However, there's a bug I found sometime back when Win 7 first released. You can try creating a "temp" folder in your primary system drive, writing any files in there should have no problem as long as disk space is sufficient.
    5. I certainly do not hope that error was caused by your anti-virus programme, but if all failed, you may want to consider temporarily disable your anti-virus software, and if everything works fine, you might want to switch to a new anti-virus programme.
    Cheers.

  • IPhoto 11' insufficient disk space error on EHD

    I have read previous discussions on this error, which did not fix my own problems.  I have recently moved my iPhoto library to an EHD. The move went smoothly and I began importing more photos into the library. During one of the large imports I accidentaly unplugged my EHD which halted the import.  I noticed it created an album in iPhoto saying "recovered photos".  There were about 3,000 of them, and in the folder the photos thumbnails were not appearing. So I moved that folder to the iPhoto trash and emptied the trash.  I also tried emtying the Finder trash as well.
    At this point I started recieving the error "Insufficient Disk Space iPhoto cannot import your photos because there is not enough free space on the volume containing your iPhoto library."
    My EHD has 1.76TB free of 2TB, and my MacBook Pro has 407.29GB free of 499.25GB. So this is not a space issue at all.
    I noticed that there was discussion of problems with deleting large amounts of data at one time, I believe this is what I did.  What can I do to resolve my issue?
    Thank you,

    As a test launch iPhoto with the Option key held down and create a new, test library.  Try to import a new batch photos and test to see if the same problem persists. Does it?
    If it doesn't then give this a go on your existing library:
    1 - launch iPhoto with the Command+Option keys held down to open the First Aid window.
    2 - Run Option #4, Rebuild Database.

  • Insufficient disk space using server103linux32 on Mac OSX

    I am trying to install Oracle Workshop for Weblogic 10.3 on Mac OSX using the Linux version of the application. After extracting and executing "java -jar installer.jar", the GUI installer opens and appears to run fine, but after the last dialog, I get the following error:
    Insufficient disk space! The installer requires:

    There is only 868MB available at /.
    "df" command in my terminal shows that I have only used 60% capacity on my volume. I clearly have more than 868MB available. Does anybody know what the deal is or how to get around this?

    jlarechiga, it does not work on my snow leopard system.

  • Insufficient disk space error on iPhoto 9.5.1 using iOS 10.9.4.

    I am trying to import around 12,000 photos from an old computer and have so far imported 4,000.  There are over 300 gigabytes free on the computer, and when I go to transfer more photos over I get the "Insufficient Disk Space" message and the photos do not transfer.  All of the solutions I have found online are outdated, so I was wondering how to solve this problem now?

  • Insufficient disk space to render, even after clearing it up?!?

    Question: I'm trying to render a Final Cut Pro timeline, but upon adding a jpeg photo, it says that there's insufficient disk space and that I can free up space with the render manager and retry. Well, I've taken off some files (which took up more space than the jpeg picture would), but it still says there's insufficient disk space. Any suggestions?

    Do you have Photoshop?
    Open your jpeg and go to Image > Mode in the menu bar. Make sure that *RGB color* and *8 Bit* are checked on. If not change it to those settings and resave.

  • Problems importing iPhoto to Aperture 3 - Insufficient Disk Space

    I have just purchased A3, and am trying to import my iPhoto library into Aperture. The iPhoto library is 57Gb, and I am importing to an external HDD that has 660Gb free. I am importing into my aperture library, following the process described in the guide.
    Each time I try this, the import goes into error, saying I have no space to import the library to.
    The error message is as follows, "*Insufficient Disk Space* - There is not enough free space on your Aperture Library Volume to import the selected items. It is estimated that you need at least an additional -2147483647MB of Space"

    I downloaded the trial version, and loaded it up onto my new 27" iMac, running Snow Leopard in 64 bit mode, with 600 GB free on the hard drive. I tried to import iPhoto - same error, same "insufficient disk space amount". Yah, my library is about 60 GB, not 2000 GB!
    I did two things: First, I opened iPhoto from the finder by holding Option+Command, then in the resulting box, told it to rebuild the thumbnails. It chugged along for a while. After it was done I quit iPhoto. I then opened Aperture 3 trial, and imported the library. Same issue.
    However, I tried it again - this time, I told it to save the photos in a folder - "Photos" it says - rather than in the Aperture library file. Tada! Works like a charm.
    The import is still going after quite a while - slurping down all the CPU and RAM my iMac can provide while doing it - but it's working!
