Hi, I recently bought some episodes of a tv show.......... and they wouldn't sync to my iPod and I had a lot of room left on it. So I dragged the files out of iTunes and now I am trying to put them back in. THe videos are on my desktop and whenever I drag it into the TV section a message comes up saying that there is not enough room on Macintosh HD and that it can't copy the files back to iTunes. Thanks in advance!

Videos can be big. First thing, check how much room you have free.
click one on startup drive. command + i ( for get info):
Note: I'm booted from an exernal firewire drive. That's why the icon is orange. Your is probably silver.

Best to have greater than 2gig of free space. Many posters to these forums state that you need much more free space: 5 gig to 10 gig or 10 percent of you hd size.

Be careful when deleting files. A lot of people have trashed their system when deleting things. Place things in trash. Reboot & run your applications. Empty trash.
Go after large files that you have created & know what they are. Do not delete small files that are in a folder you do not know what the folder is for. Anything that is less than a megabyte is a small file these days.

This will give you a list of files and folders sorted by size. Go after things you know that are big.
Thank You!!! I also just emptied the Trash.......1114 items!
Great!
Oh, I forgot the simple solution.
