Won't let me download anything not "enough disk space" when I have over 200 GB of available

All of a sudden my late 2011 macbook pro does not allow me to download anything on the internet. It is said there is not enough free disk space to however I have over 200 GB of free. When I look at the internal drive and the drive macbook hard disk, it indicates that the hard disk is completely full when I run disk utility, but the only thing that I should have on my Mac hard drive that has plenty of space. Nothing seems to work. I tried to repair/correction of disk utility and it does not say there is a problem, but obviously something is not seriously. Help, please!

If you try to add a large amount of data at once, and you receive an alert about the lack of space, then in the menu bar, select

 ▹ System Preferences... ▹ Time Machine

If there is a padlock icon in the lower left corner of the preferences window, click on it to unlock the settings and to authenticate. Turn off the Machine time and then back on. Close the window.

Restart the computer. Test.

  • not enough disk space - but I have enough?

    I have a MacBook Pro with OS X El Capitan installed with 750 GB of space dick, where I use that 130 GB, but I want to transfer a file from my external hard drive (360 GB) to my Macintosh HD, but gets the error "not enough space to move the folder" - but I don't have a lot of space?

  • Not enough disk space when creating ISO from DVD image

    I use first elements 14.1.  I encountered a very strange problem when you try to create an ISO image DVD, editing content in the available space (space required is 4.35 GB 5.12 Mbps throughput).  I get the message ' not enough space for the engraving', even if the drive I use has more than 1.5 TB of free space!  All files work in Premiere Elements are on this drive.  I cleaned all the relevant elements of the first, work folders before attempting to create the ISO image.

    Here's the weird part... If I try to create an ISO image of a Blu - Ray disc, editing of content space (space required is 18,87 GB to 20.19 Mbps bitrate), I don't get the error message.  I can create the ISO image of Blu - Ray with no problem!

    I tried to reboot several times.  I completely uninstalled EP 14.1, rebooted and reinstalled with the same results.

    Someone at - it ideas?  Has anyone ever encountered this?

    The running time is 1 hour 50 minutes.  I chose "Insert the contents of the available space", just as I did when creating the ISO from Blu - Ray.  PE shows that seeks to create a 4.35 GB file, which should easily fit on a 4.7 GB DVD.  I just tried open the same project on another computer and the same generation of PE, with the same result.

    I think I discovered a bug freak EP Version 14.1 (20151208.daily.895401).  The exact length of the film is 1:50:16:08.  I discovered that if I increase or decrease the duration of the video of just 1 frame, I is no longer the mistake and am able to successfully create a picture ISO of DVD!  Go figure.

    I would be interested to know if anyone else can duplicate this fault!

  • Error code tu7, as well as not enough disk space.

    I could not load a newly buy ADOBE DC.  I have 2 error codes.  TU7 and not enough disk space.  I have a lot of space.  Any suggestions?

    Hi teresac44554566,

    It is not a problem downloading.

    It's a lack of space in / tmp (or/private/tmp). It is a silent place to stash huge to download files, but moving on... It's an easy fix.

    If you're set up with an SSD a popular board 'longevity' is the tmp in RAM or elsewhere to save some wear and tear.

    In expression, type "df - kh", if you see/private/tmp anywhere under "mounted on ' and the 'result' is not large (several concerts I assume), there is your problem.

    The most popular advice ramdisk (can not find the link right now) is to place a startup item to do this job and name "RamFS" or/System/Library/StartupItems/RamFS. Move it out or chmod 000 it temporarily, restart and install. You can replace the StartupItem subsequently (and restart).

    Let me know how it goes.

    Kind regards

  • Cannot complete the Windows backup "there is not enough disk space.

    Original title: backup error

    If you use windows 7 home premium backup & restore to backup errors program and says that there is not enough disk space when there are 1.2 to and the space required is 60 GB. Any suggestions?

    Check very carefully that the insufficient space, the error message can be generated by the disk you want to save not necessarily the destination drive.

    Backup Windows uses the VSS service who need free space on the drive to work. The cause is a lack of space on the system reserved partition and is generated by the VSS recorder.

    a. follow the link below to start the free online scan:

    IE reset warning:
    Please note that reset the settings of Internet Explorer running resets all of the settings defined by the user, including those established by the installed extensions, toolbars and other add-ons for IE by default.

    I entered the settings of cloud and told to download for my largest drive E (which it fine for lightroom) but it only downloads on drive C (small disk almost full) for Photoshop. I missed something or is this a bug?

    Thanks in advance

    Shared resources and temporary files will be stored on your primary drive.  If a lack of disk space prevents installation then make sure you have enough space on the main drive for temporary files and installation files extracted to be placed.

  • Not enough disk space to convert the iPhoto photo library

    My wife iPhoto library has about 9 500 photos. She has a MacBook Air, which has limited hard disk space, so we put his iPhoto library on a SD card (which is still in its SD slot). We decided to convert the iPhone photo library. When the process is started, it happens about 4% on the progress bar when a popup said that there is not enough disk space to perform the task (said to 72GO). How can I complete this process? She wants to ensure its iPhone and iPad Air can all share all the photos via iCloud. Can I put the library of Photos on the SD card too? Once the synchronization of library of Photos with iCloud, not all large digital images disappear from MacBook Air and only a miniature remain (like on the iPhone and the iPad)?

    I decided to try the procedure on my original post on my MacBook Pro.

    I copied the Library.photoslibrary Photos of my MBP to an external hard drive connected to my MBP.

    I did an "Option" + then click on 'Photos' selected the "Library.photoslibrary Photos" on my external hard drive. This produces the following pop-up message:

    "This library contains items to download from iCloud photo library".

    "To download the complete library, delete the incomplete elements, then set this library as the library of the system preferences and activate iCloud photo library. This will disable iCloud photo library on other libraries. »

    "Delete the incomplete items" or "quit".

    I clicked on "Quit" and posted above.
