  • "Backup failed. Not enough storage space.

    Original title: image

    W7 32-bit HP. Use the image via Control Panel with success for a long time. However, this morning received the message "backup failed. Not enough storage space. Have you checked and at least ten times more space on the destination like this drive would be necessary for the entire image.  The only change I've made since the last successful backup is to install an SSD on my computer as the main C drive.

    Thanks, but none of it has hit the problem!

    I now it worked. For the benefit of any person who has the problem, Image requires that there is enough space on the * source * system partition of the drive for the shadow file (when get "space insufficient" messages everyone (including me) assumes respect to the * destination drive!)  (Not so).

    This seems to happen to a lot of people who are for the first time in an SSD. Because I had previously shrunk the partition on my drive C primary, preparatory to mounting small SSD (112 GB), the system partition was too small for shadow of the image file.

    Under W7 disk management even if the main partition on the C drive could be reduced to create a space unallocated, the space could not be assigned to the system partition as requiring a contiguous space.

    So I used (free for home) Easus Disk Manager to create space * before * the partition main c and then expanded the system inside partition, making this system partition that is large enough. Everything worked well then!

  • 702 Installer fails with not enough space in / tmp

    Trying to install coldfusion702 on solaris. Fails to complain about not enough space in / tmp (I got 10 GB). Tried to download the file again (assuming that possible corruption). Tried to place somewhere else in the tmp setting IATEMPDIR var. Nothing seems to help.

    Hope that someone has encountered something like this and can offer a solution. Maybe I'm missing something or a package. In the result below, ' expr: non-numeric argument ' caught my attention - I have the feeling that the script fails to the analysis of output of the df command.

    Thank you

    Just in case where someone else encounters this problem, here is the solution, my colleague helped me to understand.

    install the script analysis through the output of the command df to calculate the space in / tmp or any other temporary location for the installation files. If you have a large amount of space allocated to the/tmp (on solaris, it would be 5 GB or more) the output will look like this:
    / tmp (swap): 19773408 blocks 400226 files
    Note that there is no space between: and the size, the installation script is looking for the 4th field, which is in this case the word 'blocks' which is obviously false.

    To work around it, we have created a temporary script with filename "df" which replaces the df command:
    #! / bin/sh
    / usr/sbin/DF | tr ":" " "
    and the PATH has changed to have this temporary location of script at the beginning. This allowed the installer to run as it simply replaces: with space.

  • How will I know that I can uninstall it? It says "not enough space on drive D.

    Original title: How do iknow, I can uninstall when I said im my running out of space

    not enough space on drive d

    Hello

    You may have a serious problem that you can't solve yourself.

    Click Start > computer > see if D: is the recovery drive and in this case it must be sized anywhere between 5-15GBs about.

    If it fits this description, you should contact the manufacturer of your computer, as they placed this hard disk recovery disk.

    The recovery disk is placed there only for you to reinstall the operating system if you have a bad system crash recovery disk to reinstall the operating system in the event of total failure of the hard drive.

    The recovery disk is cannot be used for these purposes.

    The manufacturer will help you fix it.

    If this is not the recovery disk please post back.

    See you soon.

  • Can not backup on USB drive, says that there is not enough space, but there are many

    I was able to save only once.  the total size was about 4.2 billion.  Now XP doesn't let me put anything on the drive flash 8 bigger than 4,2 g. I tried to crush, deletion, reformatting, renaming - you name it.  I can put large files on the flash drive with other computers, so there must be something done XP.  In properties, it shows a lot of space, but I still get the full message of media

    Well even if you have too many files, size does not matter in the folder root of the USB then
    You can not copy more to it... try to reduce the number of files in the root folder. Try to copy everything
    the files on your hard drive and remove it from the USB and try to copy your file to it. Rob - bicycle - Mark Twain said it is good.

  • Cannot save game because the game get say not enough space, but I have 15 GB of space

    recently, when I was playing the devil may cry and resident evil, after I play I try to save the game but the game invites a massage to say save failed and the game must at least 200 KB to save the game, the problem is that I have 15 GB of space on my hard drive, how is, I can't save the game?

    Ok.

    When you go to save the game, you get the option to select the partition or volume on which save?

    Worth a try to save the game after you have uninstalled the antivirus program.  This way you can reject if the antivirus interferes. If you find my answer was what you're looking for, remember to click on the link "Propose as answer" below.

  • Not enough space

    We have an iMac and MacBook 2 backup on a capsule 3 TB. It now says not enough space. Should it not be automatically delete older backups to free up space. I have to start over and do a back up of all three computers?

    About alert TM "Backup Drive is full"

    TM only deletes older files if they have been removed from the source and when TM needs space on the backup to a new incremental backup drive. Time Machine "Jules Destrooper" its backups. over 24 hours, old backups, except the first of the day; These "dailies", old more 30-day backups, except the first day of the week. The weeklies are kept as long as there is room.

    So, how long a backup rest file depends on how long it was on your Mac before being deleted, assuming that you do at least one backup per day. If she was there for less than 24 hours, it will be maintained for at least a month. If she was there at least a week, it will be maintained as long as there is room.

    Note that, on a Time Capsule, the sparsebundle grows in size as needed, but not descended. View of the user of the TC so it seems that no space was released, although there may be space in the sparsebundle.

    Once TM has found that it cannot free enough space for new backup it reports the disk is full. You can erase the backup disk and start your backup or replace the disc with a larger drive.

I deleted all my music from my Media Player and synchronize it manually upwards and it will not always remove the song on the sansa. Please help someone!

  • Unable to create restore point not enough space error code 0 x 80070070

    My D recovery drive is almost full. I have over 900 GB on my c drive and I have 600 GB free on an external drive. always says not enough space. What is the remedy. Thanks Frank

    Looks like it has to do with one of the partitions on your hard drive.

    Go to start > Control Panel > system and security > administrative tools > computer management > disk management. From there you should be able to see what drives you have connected and all partitions (reserved for the IE system, recovery, etc.)

    Can you tell me what operating system the computer brand you use and on your drive C: drive, which partitions there (and how many MB each partition has?

  • Windows 7 says that my drive is not enough space - when it is almost empty.

    I've been moving files from one disk of 1 TB on an empty 2 TB drive. So far, I moved on 200 GB on 2 TB drive. Twice today for moving groups of files that were 3 to 10 GB, my machine was told that he was not "enough space" on the reader target when there was, indeed, 1.6 TB of space empty remaining. After clicking on the 'try' new 'button' about 15 or 20 times, the machine is softened and allows me to move the files.

    The target disk is new and has no bad sectors and on which I run chkdsk today.  I never saw this problem in Windows XP.

    Taking into account the comment of Joel, what it has always been faster use copy it / stick and then delete the old file that order, use the command move.
