Increasing size of a disk image

[jonat8]

Hi,

I have a disk image that's encrypted and I've run out of space on it but still want to put more files there, is there any way to increase the size of it while retaining all data easily?

If not, I guess I could burn the files to CD and then recreate the image larger and then copy them back but rather find a more convenient way!

Thanks in advance.

I don't think there's any (easy) way to enlarge a disk image, especially an encrypted one. But there isn't any need for going via a CD (unless you're VERY pressed for space. Just make a new, larger disk image and move the files over. Then delete the old image.

Yeah, you have to create a new one. You could create a sparse disk image. That will expand automatically as you add more stuff.

what is a sparse disk image? or is that a typo?
