Startup Disk says it's full but it's not
Hi Guys
I wonder if somebody can help me please, I' having some serious problems with my computer at the moment. All of a sudden I get an error message along the lines of: "startup disk full etc etc" however the computer I'm using has over 160 Gb of space left on it. I've checked for viruses, repaired my permissions, deleted my 'deleted' mail and followed this thread but Startup Disk almost full - No Chance!!! but nothing seems to work, please can somebody help as I'm getting really worried about this.
I'm using a 2009 iMac 27" running Snow Leopard.
Thank you in advance.
