iPod Synched Apps error on Touch. "Not enough free space"?

[wbeasley]

Hi,

Love adding apps to my Touch but I keep getting an error during sync.

"2.75 GB required, 982 MB available" or variation...

I have 120 Gb free on my Mac HD and 12 GB free on my external USB drive where my iTunes library resides.

Anyone else have this happen? Know why? Know how to avoid it?

Are you trying to sync the apps to your touch or mac hdd?

purchased apps thru iTunes (on Mac) and syncing to iPod Touch.

The Apps do transfer OK, it's just this "back up" message failure that leaves me wondering what's going on.
