"'Thanks for the suggestions, everybody. I forgot to mention I had already tried Disk Warrior. It didn't find any problems, so I didn't replace the file structure with the rebuilt one. Should I bother?': Disk Warrior also optimizes the rebuilt directory (not the 'file structure' per se), so it wouldn't hurt to replace it, even if there were no errors. That will speed up access a little. Sorry I can't help with you disk full errors. Have you checked for huge hidden folders/files?"?MacInTouch?8:52 AM
