OS X V10.6 Snow Leopard :: Can't Start Mac Because Took Too Much Space And Now The Disk Doesn't Mount
Mar 27, 2012I am most certain that this is the case: foolishly, I didnt leave much free space and now the disk doesnt want to mount. I tried the single user mode, I also booted from DVD, they appear but the disk utility shows the disk but I cannot repair the disk, because it is unmounted. I tried the basic commands in single user mode, no effect either. I still cant get over the blue screen with the apple logo and a circle running. I need to free up some spasce. Unforetunately, important files were not backedup, so I really cant delete the whole disk. I need to delete specific files. I dont know where are my big files located - so, how do I orientate myself among the folders? Lets say I would delete my itunes libary, which I would later on renew thanks to the back/up, how would I delete them?

OS X :: Time Machine Eating Disk Space / Eat GB's Of Hard Disk Space While Preparing Backup
Dec 11, 2009whenever I run Time Machine on my PowerBook G4 (1.5 Ghz / 1Gb RAM / OSX 10.5.8) it will eat up GB's of hard disk space while 'preparing the backup'. After that it finishes the backup, but I don't get the space back. I'm talking about the internal HD, not the external target disk of course. Does Time Machine use the space to generate some temporary files? Any ideas how I can get my disk space back
Applications :: No Disk Space After Failed Disk Utility Erase Free Space?
Dec 15, 2010I'm having a pretty serious problem. I attempted to erase the free space on my HD, as I do from time to time, except this time it appeared to hang/freeze at the end, when it gets to the part where it creates a temporary file. I waited for several minutes and it didn't move. I tried clicking the skip button, but that did nothing either, so I force quit Disk Utility.
The problem is, it left the disk at "Zero KB" of free space, effectively making my computer inoperable. I was in the process of studying for a huge exam tomorrow, and am currently flipping out.
If it matters, I'm on a Macbook Pro 2.33 GHz Core 2 Duo, running 10.4.
I really don't want to have to reinstall the OS and import the old files, but my real fear is that I will have to do a fresh install of the OS.

OS X :: Memory Space Disappearing / Disk Space Reduces While Streaming Videos
Dec 2, 2009I have been running out of hard drive space and have deleted a whole bunch of files... even deleted all the languages i didn't need from all my applications... about a week ago i freed up around 2GB.... but without saving and downloading anything my free space is now 70MB!! All I have been doing is watching streamed videos and I notice this reduces the drive space as I'm watching it!! Even opening firefox and some websites drops my memory by 0.1MB. I can't find anywhere where temporary files might be so i can delete them.
I never used to have this problem but I wonder if it has something to do with the fact that I now use wireless internet through a phone provider and a USB modem rather than my previous WiFi via cable broadband.
Can anybody shed some light on what is stealing my memory when browsing?
Cheers
Intel Mac :: HD Space Disappearing And Missing 100 GB Of Hard Disk Space?
Mar 21, 2012Can anyone explain to me why, on my iMac's 500GB hard drive, the displayed size of the only 4 items on it is 207GB, that the info box on the HD itself says 393GB used? Unless I failed grade 1 math, 500GB - 207GB = 293GB, right? So where's the missing ~100GB? That's a lot of space I know I haven't filled up.

MacBook Air :: Does DropBox Content Use Space On Start Up Disc?
Jun 2, 2014I´m trying to discover (with AppleCare support) why my new Air has virtually NO space left on the Start Up Disc...EVER. The OTHER files have always been huge and we´ve trashed everything imaginable. The AppleCare rep suggests that I consider wiping my hard drive clean and starting over. I've done that with my Pro and other computers and will not go there unless absolutely necessary. Today my OTHER appeared for a few hours to be the ONLY kind of files on my SU Disk and indicated I had only 4 MB of space left! Right now, it´s reading that I have all categories of files represented again, but OTHER is still over 41 GB big. Days ago, I took off ALL my docs, movies, photos and am still in constant red alert. That´s why I wonder about DropBox. Some out there on the net say it DOES take up space and others say NO.

MacBook Pro :: How To Create OS X Installation Disk
Mar 27, 2012I ran disk utility today and received a message stating: "This disk needs to be repaired. Start up your computer with another disk (such as your Mac OS X installation disc) and then use Disk Utility to repair this disk. I check the box my mid 2010 MacBook Pro came in and there is no disk. I am currently running OS X 10.6.8. I have tried searching online to find instructions for creating or downloading a Mac OS X installation disk, but my search has not been successful. How do I create or where can I download the correct Mac OS X installation disk so that I can make the repair?

OS X :: Create A New 80GB Partition In My Free Space?
Jul 18, 2009I have been trying to expand my bootcamp partition and so far I have WinClone'd it, then I merged it into my Mac partition, then I tried to create a new windows partition (but it didn't work), so now I am trying to create a new Mac partition. It failed a few times saying things like not enough space (though there was), and something about available resources. Now it has been going for about an hour, and the progress bar is in the loading mode, where it doesn't show the progress. I'm pretty sure it is hung up, and will go like this forever. How long should it take?
BTW I have a 1st gen uMBP 15"

View 5 Replies View RelatedMacBook Pro :: Disk Space Just Going Down?
Mar 3, 2012I always seem to be losing disk space. Now it is silly, I am not adding any files to the computer but it just goes down. I have purged all cache files for lightroom, photoshop, final cut render files deleted. I restart my laptop and note the disk space, say 2 gb left, then an hour later i get the pop message no disk space left and check my Mac HD and it says 230MB or even Zero. I delete a few files, empty trash, restart machine and it does the same thing again.
I recently updated to os x 10.6.8 and on updating got an extra 30gb or so which has just been eaten up without really adding much in the way of files that would take this space, so something is just taking the space, i feel it is some kind of virus as such as it goes so quick and without downloading any files that are large.
Is there something I can do as I am trying to run my mac with no space. The problem with deleting things are is that it seems to just keep automatically losing disk space so it is a vicious cycle.
