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 !

  • 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.

  • There is not enough free space on your Aperture Library volume to import the selected items. It is estimated that you need at least 4GB of free space.

    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.

  • Cannot burn dvd not enough free space

    Burning Preperation Error
    Not enough free space for encoding the remaining assets - I presume it is talking about my macbook pro hard drive - The DVD has 4.7 GB and I have a 730 MB movie
    Any thoughts ?  I'm running iDVD 7.1.2

    you post on a wrrong place but anyway. The iDvd first prepares the video in your hard drive than burns it on dvd so check do you have enough free space on your HDD

  • Importing library to Aperture 3.3: not enough free space

    I am trying to import an iPhoto Library (9.3) into a brand new, blank Aperture 3.3 library, but I am getting the following error message:  "The library could not be imported because there is not enough free space on your current Aperture Library volume."
    That's impossible because the library is actually around 70 GB in size; my hard disk itself is 750 GB so it's impossible for my iPhoto Library to requre 1821.95 GB of space!
    I understand the file format of both iPhoto 9.3 and Aperture 3.3 library are the same; but everything else still seems to think it's an iPhoto Library by default...

    My solution was to drag the photos manually from one application to the other.
    Hi darenrobbins,
    This certainly works, but a caution:
    By dragging from Aperture to iPhoto you only transfer the previews, not the originals. So better make sure, that you are now satisfied with the image resolution that you have in iPhoto after dragging.
    For example, I just dragged an image from Aperture to iPhoto; it is a jpeg with 3648 × 2736 (10.0 MP) - in iPhoto it was imported as 1824x1368; the size I have set for previews.
    InAperture, before dragging:
    Dragged to iPhoto:
    So check, if you have not lost image quality by your transfer method.
    Regards

  • Not enough free space on Aperture Library volume to import iPhoto library into Aperture?

    I purchased Aperture 3 from the App Store after using the free trial version for a few weeks.  I downloaded the program and do not have any images imorted into Aperture yet.  I tried to import my iPhoto library using File>Import>iPhoto Library and received this message: 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.  I have iPhoto 11 and 25,000 images on iPhoto.  I did review the Aperture owners manual and did not find an answer to this.

    Well obviously you don't have enough space to import an iPhoto Library that is more than 10 gigs.
    But that's not importat right now.
    You have the makings of a major problem and you need to address it now.
    OS X needs about 10 gigs of hard drive space for normal OS operations - things like virtual memory, temporary files and so on.
    Without this space your Mac will slow down as the OS hunts for space on the disk, files will be fragmented, also slowing things down, apps will crash and the risk of data corruption - that is damage to your files, photos, music - increases exponentially.
    Your first priority is to make more space on that HD. Nothing else can be done until you do. Purchase an external HD and move your Photos and Music to it. Aperture,  iPhoto an iTunes can run perfectly well with the Library on an external disk.
    If you don't you will suffer data loss. I can't stress this enough.

  • I phone won't sync because there is not enough free space

    When I try to sync my phone it says there is not enough free space but I have 3.3 gigs available.  What should I do?

    It looks like it had to do with ICould storage. I had my older phones still attached to it so deleted them off and it gave me free space.

  • HT1414 I just got a replacement iPhone 5 (64MB) for one with a cracked face, and tried to restore it.  Got an error message saying the iTunes could not restore the iPhone because not enough free space is available on the iPhone.  Now what?

    I just replaced my iPhone 5 because of a cracked face.  I backed up the old phone to iTunes.  When I tried to restore my data off of iTunes to the new phone, I got an error message saying that iTunes could not restore the iPhone because not enough free space is available on the new iPhone.  Now what?
    I have Apple Care+, but I'll be darned if I can find any way to contact anyone at Apple to talk to about this.  They take your money, but make darned sure they don't have to support you unless you jump through a bunch of hoops first, like this site.

    I've done a restore.. The phone was completely wiped back to factory settings.. It then tells me there isn't enough space on the phone to restore from back up? How when the phone is empty?!

  • Lost my contacts and calendar since update and statesThe iPhone cannot be synced because there is not enough free space to hold all of the items in the iTunes library (additional 1 MB required).e

    I lost my contacts and calendar, and photos since the iOS update and and it states that my iPhone cannot be synced because there is not enough free space to hold all of the items in the iTunes library (additional 1 MB required).   Also it shows that I am over capacity on my Capacity ruler but how do I unload some of that stuff so that I can increase my capacity and perhaps get this synching to work again. 
    So frustrating!!

    On your iPhone go to settings>general>about and next to "Available" if you dont have much space then you will need to delete stuff on the phone to make room to take photos by deleting stuff on the phone.
    In terms of syncing change what you are syncing and decide what you would really want and not want on your phone which would make what is syncing to the phone smaller.

  • Not Enough Free Space when downloading Iphone photos

    I recently updated my mac from OSX 10.5 to 10.6 after installing a new hard drive after the original one crashed. I was able to successfully install and update my mac to the latest version of Snow Leopard without a hitch. Now for some reason when I am synching my Iphone or any device to download from I get an error saying there is not enough free space. I have a 120Gb hard drive with 70Gb available. I opened Disk Utility and ran the Disk Verification that came back ok, I then did a permissions clean up, reset my NVRAM  and trashed all of my library/preferences/com.apple files. I even went into itunes 11 and selected a new folder to download to. IS THERE ANYTHING ELSE I CAN DO!? I feel like there is some string of coding that is still left over thats trying to access my old drive...
    My Stats:     1.83 GHz Intel Core Duo
                        Memory 2 GB 667 MHz DDR2 SDRAM
                        OS X 10.6.8
                        Itunes 11

                        Iphone 4s 16GB
    Thanks!

    I have 1.6 GB left on my phone but im not trying to upload to my phone. I am trying to download pics and videos from it so I can free up more space. I will however try your suggestion and delete stuff that I have on the cloud to free up even more room.
