Error Message "Not Enough Memory to Open Illustrator"

Hi,
Im running adobe illustrator cs5 on windows 7 and have previously had no problems. Today however when I opened a pdf I got the error message "Not enough memory to open illustrator" I have searched and cannot find a reason for this error. It now happens nearly every time I open a pdf. I increased my windows 7 virtual memory, however, this does not seem to have any effect. Any assistance would be appreciated.

Something is blocking PDF handling (a security tool) on the system level and/or one of the shared Adobe components for PDF handling has been updated/ changed, most likely. Do the PDFs properly open in Acrobat/ Adobe Reader? Investigate these things. Also of course simply trash your AI prefs to make sure you are not a victim of tainted config data...

    Hi All,

    Problem occurred when I tried to use stored procedure in my rpt file.
    Thanks.

    You are using multiple versions and it's still not clear what is happening but the CR 2008 reports should not be published to BusinessObjects Enterprise XI R2. CR 2008 has functionality that XI R3 does not support.
    Create reports in CR XI R2 for BOE R2.
    Also, your version of Enterprise has not been patched. You should have a Support contract which will allow you to get into our Gated site and update BOE. Then it may work but check with your administrators first before patching BOE.

  • Error Message-Not enough Memory

    All was fine with iTunes 7 update and one day (today) I come back to my computer and dock my iPod and iTunes will not start. Error message reads "not enough memory." I have a gig of ram and 13 gigs of free space on my hard drive. What gives? Has anyone had this issue? Tried restart and activity monitor says that ram is available. Nothing works. Any ideas? Thanks in advance.

    I'm having the exact same thing, you figure this out yet? I still can't use it...

  • Lightroom 5.3 Error message: Not enough memory

    I have just installed Lightroom 5.1 and downloaded the 5.3 updates.  When I press Import I instantly get a message: An Internal Error has occurred, not enough memory.  There is nothing in it as yet, it was just installed.

    Sorry about that, early morning CA time and lack of coffee chagrin and annoyance at systems in general.
    64 bit operating system
    7.89 useable Gigs of RAM
    There are perhaps 600-700 pictures installed on the computer in total, but I suspect the point is that the program does not even get around to asking where I wish to locate the photos but preemptively dismisses the suggestion out of hand.

  • Any fixes for LR5 export error message 'Not enough memory'?

    I have plenty of hard disk space, and the files being exported are only 10MB each. I'm exporting from PEF raw files to jpg's.  Closing and restarting LR5 fixes the issue after two or three goes, but it's getting annoying.  Anyone know of this issue?

    Don't be tempted to just upgrade your RAM, as Windows 7 32 Bit is unable to utilize more than the 4 GB you already have installed.  If costs are an issue upgrade your OS to Windows 7 (or higher) 64 bit first, then upgrade to 8GB of RAM if/when required.
    I have Lightroom 5.4 installed on two Windows 7 64 bit desktops, one with 4GB of RAM installed and the other with 8GB.  I have never experienced a 'not enough memory' error with either, although performance is significantly better on the 8GB system.

  • Time Machine Error Message Not enough Memory, How to fix?

    I've been using Time Machine, backing up onto a hard drive, since last November. All of a sudden it's giving me an error message saying that it does not have enough space. So the backups fail.
    The error message offers 2 alternatives: Destroy files or use a different back up location. The preferences offer no assistance, though the error message implies that I can make the backup smaller there.
    How can that be? I have saves for the last 30 days, but I can't back up the current files? That seems like flawed software to me.
    Does anyone know a work around?
    Thanks,
    Jemel

    Yes, I have read through this. Seems very unMac like. There really seem to be no preferences while Time machine is active.
    I'm not sure what you mean by that. If there isn't room, there isn't room. As dbsneddon says, we can't help figure out what's happened without some details.
    There are several possibilities:
    Nothing is wrong. You have the +Warn when old backups are deleted+ option checked in TM Preferences, and that's what it did. That's why I referred you to #C4 in Time Machine - Troubleshooting. See the tan box there for a detailed explanation and simple solution.
    Your Time Machine drive isn't well over twice the size of the data it's backing-up, and Time Machine has to do a new, full backup. #D3 in Troubleshooting lists some common reasons for that.
    For some reason, Time Machine may have started a new set of backups. A common reason is having the Logic board in your Mac replaced. See #C8 in Troubleshooting.
    There are others, of course, but start by checking those out.

  • Not enough memory to open the illustration error

    I have Adobe CS5. 
    I am running it on a laptop with 4 GB of memory.
    Windows 6.1
    but when I open the system info in the product, it says I have 3836 MB of memory.
    Only Illlustrator is loaded and I cannot open any illustrator files.  I cannot even make a blank file.
    I get the error message not enough memory to open the illustration.
    I have uninstalled and reinstalled this product and it still doesn't work.
    I tried the chat after 10 minutes of waiting for help they said they no longer support CS5 please try the phone.
    I spent 20 minutes on hold only to find out that phone support is no longer available unless I want to spend $40 for an answer.
    I am pretty angry and frustrated. 
    I have searched my computer for a /etc/launchd.conf file but I cannot find it.
    I am stuck please help.

    I have searched my computer for a /etc/launchd.conf file but I cannot find it.
    That would be Mac only.... Anyway, start by trashing the prefs in the prefs folder:
    Important Directories
    Beyond that you might consider reinstalling Adobe Reader/ Acrobat. Some of these errors are caused by damaged shared PDf components. if the machine has a specific printer installed, remove it (temporarily) and uninstall its driver. This may also help, if files have stored printer information. Likewise, check your system's color settings and color profile usage. "Bad" profiles can have all sorts of negative influence...

  • Opening attachments - ERROR MSG - 'Not enough memory or disc space'

    Hi
    I'm trying to open a word .doc from my Entourage email account and it comes up with the error message ' Not enough memory or disc space'. My hard drive has 119 GB free - so I'm thinking it may be a memory issue.
    How do I deal with this/clean up my computer??
    I just turned my computer on for the day and got this message. The only programs I've got running is Safari, entourage, word and adobe reader.
    Thanks.

    Have you tried Epson support for that E-Web Print application?
    Also, I am curious if Epson installed an add-on for Firefox for that E-Web Print application? ''Thus prompting you to ask about it in the Firefox support forum.''
    At this point the best I can offer you is a suggestion to reset your printer prefs in Firefox to see if that will help with that issue.

  • Not Enough memory to open the Illustration

    Hi,

    that below problem exist. Is that been solved. Is there any alternative way to perform the action.
    Error "Not Enough memory to open the Illustration"  when opening a placed image InDesign CS4 with Illustrator hidden
    Thanks

    Firstly, you may apply free to try product, it would repair your problem illustrator file and to import it to new .ai file with saving all content. This tool is named Illustrator Repair Toolbox. Prove it for free from here: http://www.illustrator.repairtoolbox.com/
    This solution from adobe blog
    Make Illustrator visible.
    This issue appears only on Mac OS 10.6.x. The error message sometimes occurs when you drag files from the Finder to the Illustrator icon in the dock. The error can also occur when you right-click an Illustrator SmartObject in Photoshop and choose Edit Contents.
    As ultimate measure you have to upgrade your MAC OS.

  • ERROR! "There is not enough memory to open this scene."

    I have a file that is proving impossible to reopen.
    Whenever I open it i receive an error message that says
    "There is not enough memory to open this scene. Your document is
    not damaged and may be safely saved. To increase available memory,
    close open documents or quit and use Get Info command in the Finder
    to allocate more memory to Flash."
    I have looked all over the internet for help and although
    this seems to be a pretty popular problem, no one ever has a
    solution. Some people claim it is because of a corrupt file they
    tried to import. I don't have any files in the library of this
    document and it is all completely vector.
    I desperately need this file. Do have any ideas regarding
    what I can do? Thanks a lot.

    You just posted that it seems to be a popular problem. We see
    that complaint a lot, ever since MX2004 came out. Usually
    associated
    with the larger fla files.
    Once the fla is corrupted there isn't a recover tool for it
    (that I have heard of) You can start over or use a decompiler to
    recover the pieces and code from it to use on your new one.
    soThink swf decompiler can usually make a pretty good fla from a
    working swf file (but not always)

  • System 7.1 "not enough memory to open program"

    Yes, I know this is not the corect place but it was the closest I could get.
    I have a Macintosh LC II running System 7.1.
    The machine has been working fine and I have not done anything new/installed.
    I attepmted to open "Making The Grade" when I get an error "There is not enough memory to open "Making The Grade 8.0g" (2,250K Needed, 2,113K available)"
    It has never done this before, When I go look at my "About This Macintosh" I see that I have 4,096K total and the Largest unused block: 2,107K. I have removed other programs and removed files from my machine and nothing helps.
    So, my question would be what other Software/settings could I use/try to help with this issue.
    Should I use the "Virtual Memory" setting and let it use disk space? I have 52M available on the drive.
    I havealready turned my Cache size down to 32K, hoping to free up space. But still the same issue.
    Also, if I do use the Virtual memory will this have a negative affect on anything else?
    Message was edited by: How_weird, Added more information.

    Hi, How -
    Welcome to Apple's Discussions.
    The issue probably stems from the fact that in order to open (run) a program, it needs sufficient contiguous memory be available for it to use, not just sufficient memory. A program can not use non-contiguous chunks of memory.
    That is why "About This Macintosh" reports the largest unused block (a 'block' is a contiguous chunk) available, rather than the raw total of unused memory.
    Often after opening some smaller programs the RAM will become fragmented. Quitting some of those apps may free up a lot of total memory, but not enough in a contiguous chunk for the needs of a large program.
    Restarting the machine clears all RAM, which is why Niel suggested doing that. After the machine has finished restarting, all memory not then in use will effectively be contiguous and available for that program. If you have any programs set to be opened (run) automatically at startup, you may wish to disable that for the duration of your need for the larger program.
    More info about fragmentation of memory (RAM) here -
    Article #TA21681 - Minimizing Memory Fragmentation
    I know this is not the corect place but it was the closest I could get.
    It's not highly obvious. On the Discussions mainpage, scroll down until you can see and click the link named "Older software products". On the Category page to which that link takes you, you will find a link for OS 7 and earlier OS's -
