Intel Mac :: Does Not Start Up As Usual. Start Up Disk Is Full Message

Apr 10, 2012

My iMac does not start up as usual. I now get a ' start up disk is full. You need to make space available on your start up disk by deleting files' message.  I am able to key my log on password however I just get the purple galaxy screen with no desktop. 

If I try to use the keyboard I get a tone when pressing the keys.  

Has worked perfectly well up until I got this dusk full message.

Intel Mac :: Startup Disk Is Showing Full?

Mar 10, 2012

I ran omnidisk sweeper and it shows I only have 39GB of used space.  However, when I check the info on the startup disk it shows that I only have 300mb-5GB left depending on the day.  I have deleted all unnecessary files that I can.  I can't really find anything else to delete.  I only have a couple programs installed that are pretty basic like word and excel.

Info:
iMac (21.5-inch Mid 2011), Mac OS X (10.7.3)

Intel Mac :: Error - Start Up Disk Is Almost Full

Apr 18, 2012

Bought this iMac not quite a year ago.  I had very few files - some pictures and music mostly.  Tried to update ANYTHING and kept receiving "start up disk is almost full".  Burned pictures to disc and deleted them.  Also, accidentally deleted all music as well.  I am still receiving the error message.  I called Apple and removing media files was their suggestion as well.  I have no idea what to do next - I have no "tech savvy" Processor  2.7 GHz Intel Core i5Memory  8 GB 1333 MHz DDR3Software  Mac OS X Lion 10.7.2 (11C74)

OS X :: Reports Disk Full And Won't Start

Jan 14, 2011

I ran SuperDuper last night and the backup failed with an unknown error. After, Spotlight didn't find files. I rebooted and at the login screen was given the error message 'backup disc full, delete some files' - problem is, OS X won't boot beyond the starfield screen, so there's no way of deleting files or running the system. I took the drive out and put it in a USB caddy on another machine and ran Disk Utility - it said repairs were needed, so I did this. However, putting it back into the MBP nothing has changed, it still won't boot and insists the disc is full - there is over 180GB free! (I can see this when I mount it on another machine.)

Software :: Mac Os 10.3.9 Start Up Disk Full

Dec 27, 2009

At work I am using a Mac os 10.3.9 and I have been getting a message telling me that the start up disk is full. Usually when I delete messages from the mailbox it gives me most of my memory back, but this time it didn't. I called my server and they deleted the messages from there, but that didn't do anything either. I have about 88 MB in my memory. Does anyone know what I can do to gain the memory back? I have went and repaired permissions, but that didn't do anything for it. I am not very computer literate and right now I am at home and do not have access to the computer.

OS X V10.7 Lion :: Start-up Disk Full?

May 16, 2012

Okay, so my iMac has been slowing down recently and I have gotten the pop-up saying the start up disk is full.  When I got this, I went through and deleted a lot of things and moved things onto my external hard-drive.  I can't remember how much space it got me, but it only lasted a few days. The same pop-up came up and I was confused because I hadn't really downloaded anything or done anything to use that space.  Okay, so I delete more stuff. This second time I deleted enough (my whole downloads folder I forgot about) to get 15GB of space back.  That was just a few days ago. Today, I got the same pop-up and had only 1GB of space left. I haven't downloaded ANYTHING especially 14GB worth at least for me to run out of space again.

MacBook Pro :: Start Up Disk Full?

Dec 6, 2014

I keep getting a message that the start up disk is full on my macbook. I can't upload any more pictures or videos. I've only had my macbook for about three months and it says that there is only 10GB of 130GB memory left. I haven't got that much stored on it, maybe a few videos and 3,000 photos. I can't believe the macintosh disk is full. I have installed the new operating system, so could it be that? 

Info:
MacBook Pro with Retina display, OS X Yosemite (10.10), I think it's yosemite??

MacBook Air :: Start Up Disk Full When Trying To Encrypt External Backup

Jun 28, 2014

Decided to encrypt my external backup drive. Instead, I essentially doubled my memory by duplicating my external hard drive and adding it to my MacBook. Now my startup disk is full and I'm stuck. I also have Time Machine but not sure how to restore (replace?) my Mac storage to what it was two hours ago.

IMac :: Start Up Disk Full - Couldn't Save ITunes Library?

Aug 24, 2010

I keep getting a pop up saying my start up disk is almost full, or that my iTunes library couldn't be saved, but I've still got a quarter of hard drive available on my new iMac. OmniDiskSweeper shows that most of the memory goes to my iTunes Media and Pictures/videos, but that shows just 61GB of hard drive used for Users. What could be using my hard drive space that doesn't show in OmniDiskSweeper?

MacBook :: Start Up Disk Is Full / Even Though Yesterday I Deleted 1.5 Gigs Of Memory

Feb 3, 2012

Yesterday I deleted enough files to give myself at least 2 gigs of free memory and yet today when I opened up my macbook it tells me I have only 190MB left, and yet none of the files that I deleted remain on the computer, and my trash is completely empty.Does anyone know of any sort of 'Detox' kind of program or method to get the Macbook to reanalyse how much memory it really has left? It's done this before, but I haven't figured out a way to snap some sense back in the harddrive to remind it of the fact that it deleted those large files ages ago.
