Lack of space on my c drive!

I tried to reduce the allocation of disk space for system restore free space on my c drive

but when I do the amunt of free space on the disc does not change I do something wrong?

I also tried to do the same thing on my drive (partitioned) D but with the same result.

Assuming that your machine is running fine except for lack of disk space, you may need to completely disable System Restore.  When you do this, all restore points are deleted.  After you disable the system restore, restart your machine and then re-enable the system restore and set a Restore Point.  That should reduce the amount of occupied disk space to only the single restore point.  It's time to specify the maximum amount of space for Restore Points take care.

  • Mac OSX 10.11.5: Lack of 50 GB of hard drive space

    A few months (maybe a year), I used Bootcamp to create a partition on my Mac Windows. Today, I decided to use Bootcamp to delete said partition again. It worked well until it abruptly stopped Bootcamp, saying: the partition could not be deleted. I looked at my memory and saw that the partition has not been restored to my original HD. So now, Miss me about 50 + gigabytes of data.

    Here's what diskutil said.

    Disk utility does not list the missing partition. I lost the 50 concerts for ever?

    Hey Jeremiah-OOP.

    It seems that you went to delete the Bootcamp partition, but the utility has failed during the process. Now in disk utility, the Bootcamp partition does not appear but your primary partition is always smaller and lack of space that used to be under the partition Bootcamp.

    Let's take a look at this article: disk utility (El Capitan): partitioning a physical disk

    Expand a volume

    If you have several volumes on a device, and one of them is running out of space, you will be able to expand without losing the files it contains.

    To enlarge a volume, you must delete the volume that comes after him on the device, and then move the end point of the volume you want to enlarge in the freed space. You cannot expand the last volume on a device.

    WARNING: When you delete a volume, all data thereon is erased. Don't forget to back up your data before you start.

    You may need to use disk utility to expand your primary volume to take advantage of all the hard drive again.

    Take care!

    Thanks Ken and Bill. I searched my Dell support mechanism and that seems a popular search. I guess it helped me to understand the functions of the D drive. So one useful piece of advice was to find the backup file defined in the D drive, remove it and then reconfigure my backup program. This seems to allow me to choose what I backup. I chose to not save the D drive, but what I consider necessary on the E drive. All this to be saved on DVD RW. However, for me it's more than 50 discs. Not too convenient, especially if it must be done on a regular basis. Can I use a memory stick, or if it's just the drive E - external hard drive. Thank you once again.

    You are welcome. Happy to help you.

    It is completely unrealistic to try to back up a drive of 50 DVDs. If
    of how much you need to save a memory stick is also too small.
    Buy an external hard drive.

  • Time Capsule backups fail 'lack of space'

    I have two 3 TB time Capsules airport here at home network with an iMac and MacBook Pro 2.  All computers are up-to-date with the latest version of the software for Mac OS x (10.11.5) and the two time Capsules have been updated with the latest firmware yesterday (May 30, 2016).  I get the same error message that does not respect the backup, or for both, readers of time capsule due to lack of space.

    How is that possible?  I thought that TC permanently erased the last backup to make room for the next backup... aren't these differential backups?  Are a number of safeguards supposed to be kept?  Or over a certain period of time?

    Is the solution here to add a few more disk space for the time capsule airport with USB drives?

    Thanks for your help.

    John

    Time Machine usually works very well to delete backups of older (and small) "extra" type on the Time Capsule, but if the disk is full, and all of a sudden you add lots of new data to your Mac as an update of the operating system, or enlarge them or video files... which adds a lot of new data to your computer... and then the Time Machine can not delete older files to make room the new, much larger that new normal backup which would be necessary.

    When this happens, you have 3 Basic, in order of most expensive options on the bottom:

    • Add another new Time Capsule and start backups to go
    • Add a USB to a Time Capsule and start to go back up
    • Clear the Time Capsule disk and start over again with the backups with the drawback that you will lose your history backups

    In fact, there is a fourth option... that I do not recommend... and it is to go back into your files to backup using the Finder and delete older backups manually.  The drawback here is that it is a long and tedious process, and there is a very real danger that the entire file backup for Mac may be corrupt, make the file useless.

  • WinSxS swallow all my server storage space and fill C:Drives causing unstable Windows

    Hey there, I got a small cut of data center where we have virtualized 10.  Which most is Server 2008 standard with 4 x x64Bit version.

    I thought about creating a 75GB C partition would be more than enough space.  After about 9 months of use of torque with a 64 bit OS and Exchange 2010, I was up to 5 GB space on my C drive.  Fortunately, I had a load of spare to park my Exchange .edb files to remedy the problem of the lack of storage SAN.

    What MS is going to deal with this problem.  I'm lucky, I can just use extra storage space and make a difference.  What of those who pay for hosted solutions / storage.  This eventually cost them much more they may have planned to even if they copy actually that much data on the server.

    Surely MS will come out as its eems to be a cleaning tool or a patch to stop this issue more and more out of control.  Nobody seems to have a decent solution for this.  Woe to anyone brave enough to just go and delete files to free up space.

    Any ideas or advice greatly appreciated.

    Looking forward to hear from you.

  • on my iCloud drive files take up space on my hard drive?

    I'm always running out of space on the hard drive of my MacBook Pro. The most important issue seems to be the library and Documents Mobile is the largest. But when I look inside I find the name of the folder as if by magic going on MacBook Pro / My Files / Library / Mobile Documents for MacBook Pro / My Files / library / iCloud Drive.  I thought that the purpose of paying extra for space on my iCloud drive should free up space on my hard drive.

    When you add items to a project can then remove the clips?  I'm trying to free up space on my hard drive. Thank you.

    Not while you're still editing the project.  When you have completed the project and shared it and are sure that you do not want to do any editing more far, you can delete the whole project.

    If you do a significant amount of iMovie editing you really need to put your libray (ies) on a large external hard drive.  Another thing you can do is to divide your work between different libraries and move those that are not currently on a removable drive.

    Hello

    Well, if you have a free space on the HARD drive if you want, you can create a two or three partitions. New partitions can have different sizes. In this case, I propose to use the magic of Partitions. This tool is very nice and easy to use and has many useful features.
