Storage Capacity:

Seems you just don't have the space.


  • Start with a Restart:

Having just delete all these items, restart your Mac. Try this once more.


  • Use a Different Computer:

Obviously, this is a large file. So, use a computer with a larger hard drive. See if you can then download it. Have not other computer, then use a friend or family member's computer (with their permission, of course).


  • Use an External Drive:

When you download it, use an external hard drive and save it to that.
