Low Memory Warning. . . with lots of memory left?

I keep getting a Low Memory Warning on my iPad and I have to click on OK. However, I have over 22GB left. Is this a known problem? What is the issue? Are my apps (games/videos) staying "open" even after I click the home button and if so how do I "close" them?

Hi and welcome to Apple Discussions...
You can monitor "storage space" in the iTunes window.
Connect your iPad to your computer. Launch iTunes. Select your iPad under Devices on the left side of the iTunes window. Select the Summary tab.
You can see "Capacity" at the bottom of the iTunes window. If your iPad is telling you haven't enough space left try the suggestions here.

Very low on system memory warning with plenty of memory left

Hi,
I am using Premiere Elements 7 on Windows XP, AMD 3GHz dual core with 4GB memory. I create DVDs based on AVCHD files from a Canon HF100, almost no editing, 1 hour of DVD content (8 GB worth of AVCHD files) . I have done this with the same configuration in the past without problems, but lately Premiere has been very unstable, either crashing outright or giving me the following warning:
Adobe Premiere Elements is running very low on system memory. Please save your project and proceed with caution.
When I try to burn a DVD, this warning is always shows within minutes, followed by a transcoding error. I tried everything to free up more space, nothing else significant is running on my machine, and I have exited most other background processes. When the above warning is shown, physical memory consumption is is reported as following:
Commit Charge: 1.8 GB
Premiere Elements process: 1.1 GB
Free memory: 1.5 GB
I also have virtual memory set to 8GB. Premiere scratch directories are on a disk with 500GB free space. I uninstalled and reinstalled Premiere, but no improvement.
Other relevant software on my machine, some of it installed after I had my last successful DVD burn:
Norton 360 2010 (Disabled Firewall and Autoprotect)
Adobe Web Premium CS3
Adobe Lightroom 2.5
Copernic Desktop Search (Disabled)
A number of free video tools, like HandBrake, AutoGK, AVISynth, VobSub, DVD Decrypter, Xvid
Tivo Desktop (Disabled)
iTunes (Disabled)
Could there be any side effect from the other software? Any potential hardware problems I should investigate? Everything else works perfectly, including the other Adobe products.
I very much appreciate your help, Premiere is unusable at the moment and I have some DVDs I desperately want to create.
Thanks,
Alex

Have you rendered your timeline?
If you're sceneline mode, switch to timeline mode. Is there a red line above your clips? If so, press Enter and let the program render your timeline (the red line will turn green).
This should greatly improve your program's stability and performance.
Also, ensure that the disc where you are storing your video files is formatted NTFS and not FAT32 (as they are when they come from the factory). FAT32 drives have a file size limit that can choke video work.
And, if this 500 gig drive is not your C drive, ensure that your C drive also has at least 30-50 gigs of free space, freshly defragmented and with its temp files regularly cleared.

Zen Micro Photo Low Battery Warning With Fully Charged Batt

I have two of these players and both batteries work fine and indicate fully charged in one of the players. Neither battery works in the other player. No power at all with either of them. If I connect the player to a computer all I get is the creative splash screen followed by the Low Battery Warning with the yeild sign, nothing else. If I turn the player off then it reverts to no power at all. What is going on, anybody know?
Thanks

What was the resolution. I am having the exact problem.

[2008 R2] Hyper-V Dynamic memory warning with half of vHost memory free

Our virtual server host system has about 19GB of Memory free (out of 32GB total), yet a virtual guest using Dynamic Memory was only being assigned 8GB and the demand was around 13GB, therefore generating a Warning state on the Memory Status. Logging onto
the guest machine showed about 8GB of memory being used as well. The end-users were receiving memory errors in their applications. Any idea why the guest system was in this warning state?

There is a perception in the OS. And different numbers come from different places.
In a nutshell, the RDP Server has a memory leak if you constantly disconnect and reconnect - and it ends up chewing up memory, but when available memory is tested this memory consumption is missed. If you logout of the RDP session instead of disconnecting
then the memory is given back and can actually be used.
It is a strange interaction with RDP that has been there since the original release. But it is specific to using RDP to connect to the Hyper-V Server for VM Management and disconnecting without ever logging out.
There was also a google process that many folks reported a long while back that caused memory consumption that prevented VMs from starting as well.

Out of memory with lots of memory

this is the log output:
05/08/27 19:18:05 Runtime.getRuntime().freeMemory()=856 M
05/08/27 19:18:05 Runtime.getRuntime().totalMemory()=1012 M
05/08/27 19:18:05 In use=156 M
05/08/27 19:18:05 Runtime.getRuntime().maxMemory()=1012 M
05/08/27 19:18:09 java.lang.OutOfMemoryError
as u see there are enough memory and still out of memory error comes.
I run standalone server with 1.5GB ram. heap size is set to 1024 and also Xss and MaxPermSize are set to appropriate sizes.
what could be the error source ?

That must be puzzling. I do not have the answer, but a little more data from you would be helpful.
If you are using Windows, can you go to task manager to verify how much memory your java process is using? On unix, the command "top". Set your MaxPerSize to 256M just for sure. If the process hangs when the OutOfMemoryError happens, do a full stack dump by "ctrl+break" on Windows or "ctrl+^" on unix/linux to see what is happening. If a stackTrace of the thread that causes the OutOfMemoryError can be obtained, that will be the most helpful.

Phone turns off with lots of battery left

My iPhone 4S has taken to turning off with as much as 30% power left. When I plug it in again and it comes back up, it will indicate the same power percentage. I have made it a habit of draining the battery at least once a month and then fully charging it (probably that happens more than once a month), so I feel like I've been properly maintaining the battery. I got this when the 4S came out, so it's as old as the 4S model is. Oddly, if I'm on the phone this does not happen. It will run down to 1%. Maybe that's coincedence, maybe not.
It's quite irritating - isn't this supposed to be the software/hardware that "just works"? - when you're doing something important and this happens. Today two armadillos appeared in our back yard and I was shooting some video of them. I got a low battery warning - I'm not sure if it was the 10% or 20% warning - but then right after clearing it, the phone shut down. I had some good video, but instead of using the remaining power to save the video, the video was just lost. I had never seen armadillos up close like that and was wanting that video to show my son and some other people, but now due to this problem that video is gone. Thanks a lot, Apple!

Sounds like there is a hardware problem - likely with the battery.
Make an appointment at an Apple Store if there is one nearby to confirm.

I keep getting notified by my AVG antivirus that FireFox is using a higher than usual amount of memory or a lot of memory and to close the ap and re open it. This does not seem to stop those notifications. What do I need to do to solve this issue?

I get this message mostly when I am Playing the games on Facebook or onPogo.com. It seems like this just started to occur over the last month or the last update I did with AVG.

As the message comes from AVG yo will need to read about AVG to stop those alerts.
If you think there is a genuine problem with firefox
* see [[high memory usage]] <-- clickable link -- <br/> that contains some tips and information about memory usage
* go to ''about:memory'' by keying that into the location bar <br/> the report that is generated may be of help - it gives tooltip info on mouseover of items, and has a button that tries to reduce memory usage

Low resolution warning with 8Mpixel image?

I've finished a new large size hardcover book, and some of the full page size (landscape) images with have 8 megapixel raw files as sources have low resolution warnings - some, but not all of them. Some of the photos have been edited in photoshop, and none of these have warnings. With the unedited pics, some have warnings, some don't - there doesn't seem to be any specific reason why some of the files have warnings. I haven't tried to actually buy the book, so I don't know what will happen with ordering. But it seems 8 megapixels should be fine for a large book landscape page.

Limnidytis:
What size book and theme are you using? I'm not familiar with the RAW files but remember reading about there's a couple of files that get uploaded, the raw file and a jpg for viewing - something like that. Check and make sure it's the RAW file that's in the book and not the jpg file for viewing. Click on one of the files in the book and type Command-I to bring up the Info window for it. There you'll see the image size size in pixels and file size in KB or MB. As I said I'm not familiar with those files so may be way off on this.
As far as resolution is concerned its the overall pixel dimensions of the file that are important. For example a 3512 x 2338 pixel file will have a resolution of about 585 dpi for a 4 x 6 print. If you expand that to an 8 x 12 print (so we dont have to crop) the resolution will drop to about 292.
A 3512 x 2338 file will give approximately a resolution of 275 if printed at an 8.5 x 11 size or approximately a full page photo in a large book. 275 is sufficient for that size print.
iPhoto will often report the dpi at 72 but the size its looking at may be somewhere around 48 inches for the larger side. This can be seen if you have an editor like Photoshop Elements where you can go in and change the dpi and pixels on a side and see how the size in inches changes.

DJ 940c: Installed 78XL Cartridge, it works; printer cartridge light off; Toolbox Low Ink warning on

This is a real workhorse printer and I love it. And looking at this forum, many people feel the same way for everyday color printing. But, on Wednesday, 7/7, I bought a bew HP tri-color cartridge because the old cartridge had run out of yellow ink (for real), the printers's cartridge light was staying on and the HP DeskJet 940c Series Toolbox program had a "Tri-Color Print Cartridge Low On Ink" warning in my Win XP SP3 System Tray. The office supply chain store I went did not have the usual HP 15-78 Combo cartridge set I buy nor did it have an HP 78 tri-color standalone cartridge. They did have a 78XL tri-color cartrige which (supposedly) can print "up to 2X MORE PAGES" because it has twice the amount of ink the HP 78 cartridge has. The package listed the HP deskjet 940 and the store tech person assured me the cartige would fit and I bought it, installed it (yes, it did fit), and aligned the cartridges. A test print using a sprite jpg file I got from Amazon's site printed beautifully. The printer's cartridge light was off but then I noticed the icon in the System Tray. The HP DeskJet 940c Series Toolbox program still had a "Tri-Color Print Cartridge Low On Ink" warning. I turned the printer off, waited awhile, turned the printer on, still had the warning. Restarted the computer. Still had the warning. Am I doomed to always have this Low Ink warning with the 78XL cartridge? Is there some value in the Window's Registry I can chage so the warning goes away until one of the cartridge colors really does get low on ink? If I can do this and I actually do this deed, will the problem occur again if I install an 15XL cartridge? Is this a problem becuause the printer driver or some other HP software does not recognize the signals coming from the 78XL Cartrige chip? If this is the case, are you going to update the drivers from way back (say Microsoft unsupported Windows98 to and through Windows 7, skip 8.x, and 10?

Is the cartridge an original HP or is it a third party remanufactured or refilled cartridge? If you open the printer lid with the power on where does the carriage pointer point?

32RV753 Low Signal Warning

Hi guys,
I regularly get a low signal warning with the above TV. I use an internal aerial, so this is not a surprise. It is also not a problem, most of the time. However, the warning takes up a good proportion of the screen and is a nuisance, and I would like to turn it off. Any ideas?
Many thanks,
Ben

Is that a US model? This site only supports US models. Unfortunately, I don't know how to fix your issue. Try checking Toshiba Europe.

"Low Memory Warning" and "fails to create a virtual machine"

From ide.conf, I learnt:
If you are getting the 'Low Memory Warning' Message Dialog while running JDeveloper, please increase the -Xmx value below from the default 768M to something greater, like 1024M or 1250M. If after increasing the value, JDeveloper is no longer starting up because it fails to create a virtual machine, then please reduce the modified -Xmx value.
However,
If I set it to a bigger value, say 512M, it fails to create a virtual machine.
If I set it to a smaller value, say 400M, it throws Low Memory Warning after a short while.
So I do not know how to do. Total physical memory of my box is 4G. Free physical user memory after starting jdev is 1.5G.

512M isn't bigger, the default (according to your reading) is 768M...
I just tried with JDeveloper 11.1.2.2.0 (64-bit machine, but using 32-bit JVM) - works fine with 1024M - just to confirm that my changes are working, 5024M does give me "unable to create virtual machine"
Have you messed about with other settings?

Low memory warning on my iPad (3rd gen)

I'm receiving a low memory warning on my iPad (3rd generation), but I can't find the RAM info anywhere under the Settings. I always close my apps using the Home button, so nothing should be open except the app I'm using. How can I see the RAM available, and what can I do about the low memory warning?

You may have many apps open. For iOS 7 users, there’s an easy way to see which apps are open in order to close them. By double-tapping the home button on your iPhone or iPad, the new multitasking feature in iOS 7 shows full page previews of all your open apps. Simply scroll horizontally to see all your apps, and close the apps with a simple flick towards the top of the screen.

How to Remove “Other” Data from iPhone, iPad and iPod Touch
http://www.igeeksblog.com/how-to-remove-other-data-from-iphone/
With an iOS device, the “Other” space in iTunes is used to store things like documents, settings, caches, and a few other important items. If you sync lots of documents to apps like GoodReader, DropCopy, or anything else that reads external files, your storage use can skyrocket. With iOS 5/6/7, you can see exactly which applications are taking up the most space. Just head to Settings > General > Usage, and tap the button labeled Show All Apps. The storage section will show you the app and how much storage space it is taking up. Tap on the app name to get a description of the additional storage space being used by the app’s documents and data. You can remove the storage-hogging application and all of its data directly from this screen, or manually remove the data by opening the app. Some applications, especially those designed by Apple, will allow you to remove stored data by swiping from left to right on the item to reveal a Delete button.

Low Memory Warning

I started a new app today and got the following message:
Low Memory Warning
Air Harp has detected your device is
low on memory. If a problem occurs
please restart your device.
No problem occurred. I think Stanza may have been using memory - I really don't know how to tell what's using memory.
How do I tell what needs to be shut down?

Pharmer,
Looks to me as though you don't enough enough physical RAM to run as many processes as you currently are. 2GB of RAM is pretty low these days. Do me a favor and -- click Start -- Type
MSconfig in the search bar and press enter -- Click the
startup tab and see how many programs are checked to start on bootup. You can uncheck ones that you don't need running all the time. That should free up some memory to keep you going for a bit. But a permanent fix would be to increase your
physical RAM.
EDIT: Switching to basic desktop will reduce the amount of RAM needed to run Windows, which is why you haven't gotten the problem since.
