TCS 5 Installation Problems-"Insufficient Disk Space"

[pduarte2]

I've been subscribing to TCS 5 since May.  Recently, I upgraded to a newer MacBook Pro, and I've installed a copy of Windows 7 and I'm running it using VMWare Fusion 6.  Today, I finally downloaded the TCS 5 files from my profile.

I ran into a problem when it came time to install the suite.  I tried continue the installer beyond the "pick a destination folder" step, but when I clicked the "Next" button, a pop-up appeared and said "Insufficient Disk Space," and it suggested increasing the disk size and trying again.  I increased the disk space of my virtual machine from around 60 GB to 128 GB.  I tried the installation again and no luck.

Has anyone found a solution?  Do I need to increase my virtual machine's disk space further?  I can't seem to find anything that would allow for a workaround to this problem.  Any advice will be a big help to me, as I really want to start using these programs.

Give TCS support a buzz – install issues are usually a freebie call.

I called tech support just now and he suggested that I try installing on my physical hard drive, rather than a virtual one.

However, while running Boot Camp could work, I don't want to reboot my MacBook constantly to change between operating systems.  Also, now that I've used my Windows 7 product code once, I don't think I can reuse it.  I'd have to spend more money to obtain another copy of Windows 7.

Could I download the files to another PC, install them there, and then put everything on a flash drive to take back to my virtual desktop and run the programs successfully?

I don’t speak Mac very well, but I think most people are running it using Parallels? Or something like that – do a search for Mac in the FM or RH forums; that will give you some idea of what people are running
