Are you sure that you have *plenty* of disk space on your boot disk, rather than a second drive?
You'd need enough for the installer packages, as well as the 18+G of content when unpacked.

Jan 28, 2012 7:40 AM in response to CCTMby DavidRedmayne,Hi, the additional content manager is saying that "LogicPro and Mainstage Additional Content" requires 5.8Gb.
My boot drive has 10.58 Gb free. I also have a USB HDD with 64Gb free but I bet I can't send the mainstage stuff to there! or can i?
Thanks for your help so far

You are heading for a disaster here; this is not enough free space for the OS to operate effectively. The exact numbers can vary, but typically the rule of thumb is 20% of the disk capacity as free space.
You really do need to make some more space, regardless of any Mainstage installation.

Yes, but you may well need double that whilst you are downloading /installing. (and there are the optional jampacks too).
You could possibly get away without installing all of this content, and you could (with some messing around), possibly move some of it to the extenal drive.

Jan 28, 2012 4:03 PM in response to DavidRedmayneby Tonebar,I too am running out of HD. Can I transfer the Jam Packs to external and if so how do I direct MS or LP to that HD? I have backed up single (multitrack) files to DVD for future use to free up[ HD space, Is there a better way?
