Not enough memory to save file.

I am getting this message when I try and export an AI file as .psd file. Illustrator is the only app open on a new 24" iMac running 10.5.4. The illustrator file itself is only about 5 mb. Yet . . .I get the message "Not enough memory to save file." Any thoughts, gang?

I know this is an old thread, but anyone trying to export large files out of Illustrator CS5 (maybe even CS6 and CC) still face this "not enough memory" challenge.
To summarize the above comments, this is what worked for me...
1. Using Windows 7 or Windows 8, and Illustrator CS5
2. Close Illustrator (if open)
3. Right click the Illustrator application > Properties > Compatibility (tab)
4. "Run this program in compatibility mode for:" > Windows XP (Service Pack 3)
5. "Run this program as an administrator" (optional, but recommended)
6. Apply (or "OK")
7. Open Illustrator > Open your Illustrator file
8. File > Export > (DO NOT CLICK SAVE YET...)
9. (File Save Dialog Box) > At the bottom of the dialog box, tick to select "Use Artboards" > Range "1"
10. (name your file) > "Save"
11. (Photoshop Export Options) > Select color mode > Select Resolution > Select "Flat Image" > Select "Anti-Alias
12. Click "OK"
Doing everything above allowed me to save a very large Illustrator file as a 300ppi RGB Photoshop file and avoid the "Not enough memory..." problem.
I hope this helps, but as usual: your mileage may vary... Shalom!

    Exporting from Illustrator to Photoshop: Not Enough Memory To Save File
    I have plenty of memory (6 GB) and the files I try to export are not very big (some less than 5 MB). Yet, I keep getting the above message: Not Enough Memory To Save File
    Any suggestions?
    Many thanks!

    Up-thread, John Joslin mentioned that "memory" is more than RAM. It is RAM, Virtual Memory, Scratch Disk, and is also governed by the allocations for your Adobe programs (in this case).
    The first thing that I would explore is the Windows Virtual Memory (Page File) settings. This ARTICLE might give you some tips.
    Also, see this ARTICLE on setting up a computer for an editing session. It's geared more towards doing video editing, but applies to PS work too.
    Then, go to Edit>Preferences in both PS and AI, and check the allocation of your memory. Too often, people run that up, and then they starve the OS, or any other programs.
    Good luck,

  • Not enough memory to save this file

    hi ,
    im doing a artwork with a size of 210" x 72" and 4 layers in total ( the size is actually half of the actual print size which is 420" by 144" ). But whenever i want to export the ai file to psd , the error prompting ' Not enough memory to save this file ' appears. I've changed my primary scratch disks frm Startup to C:\ ( which is ard 100gb ) but the error still exists. Is there anyone who could help me ? Need to send the works for print next week but i need to export this file to photoshop to do extra effects and changes.

    theres around 88gb left on my drive and my ai file is juz 1.84mb.
    the settings for export is as follows :
    Resolution - 72dpi ( as my workfile is being done to a scale of 50% , i used a lower dpi )
    Options - Write layers with max editability
    Anti-alias unchecked
    Embed ICC profile checked

  • Illustrator CS5 Error - "Not enough memory to save the file"

    Hey guys,
    I'm experiencing difficulties in exporting website from .AI to .PSD using Illustrator CS5.1 under Windows7 Home Premium 64bit. The error message says "Not enough memory to save the file".     
    I can assure you that i've got enough memory for scratch disks and my computer is powerful enough to handle this operation. The funny thing is that i am able to export the very same .Ai file using Illustrator CS5.1 under Windows XP 32bit on different PC.
    I've tried to find a solution online, but it gave no satisfying results so far. So, i think the problem comes from the operating system, but i don't know how to fix it... any suggestions?
    Thanks, Steve.

    Sad to say I'm running into the same problem with a 40KB file.....
    (download the following file and use it)
    http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/8/8c/2.4_GHz_Wi-Fi_channels_%28802.11b%2Cg_W LAN%29.svg
    File -> Open
    Modify the file slightly:
    doubleclick the image
    remove the channel 14 info  (the text block "14" & "2.484",  the T shaped path, the dotted half circle path)
    drag a square around the "Channel", "Center Frequency", "(GHz)" text blocks and hold left shift and press the left arrow until the selected items are tighter to the rest of the image
    select the bold base line, grab the right middle point to shrink the line (dragging from right to the left) until 'intersect' shows up, then release
    click the top left "Back One Level" arrow 2 times so that you are back to the top level (out of isolation mode)
    File -> Export -> Choose PSD
    Export Options (all default settings)
    Color Model RGB

    POOF! ERROR!

  • Not enough memory to open file NOKIA 6120

    Hi !
    I have nokia 6120. I have also sandisk micro sd card (mobile premiere) with 1GB storage. I transfered a flash movie of 20Mb and another one of 11Mb into the card memory. I tryed to play it with flash player that is installed on the phone. When i select to play it from the file manager , it gives me a error: not enough memory to open file. On the phone i have 11 Mb of memory ow, but the movie is located on the sd card. I dont know why it gives me this error. I think its mean that i even cant play any of the other videos from the card ... for example a divx or avi movie !???
    Anybody have the same problem ? I hope that there is a fix for this otherwise i have a big card that I cant use for such storage.... that will be a big shame.
    Regards

    I deleted some game and gain 1MB of Ram. Yes its quite low...strange. I need to check some friend phone which have the same type. I think that more stuff installed on phone means less ram memory available, although only some of them are rally active in stand by or none of them...I asked another friend if he have the same problem. I dont know exactly what is the model of his phone, but i now he have a symbian 3rd phone s60...the first one of this s60 3rd generation. He have the same problem when talking about opening the swf videos. I think that the phone try to fill the whole movie into his ram and then play it....so it doesnt work. When opening the avi videos..using smart movie player for symbian...no problems at all. Also using the original real player works ok, but the real player that is integrated does not support avi formats. It support mp4 format and some other. The smart movie player support avi formats, divx, xvid, mp4... I chose smart movie player because it has more functionalities then nokia real player. try it.

  • CS3: Not enough memory to place file?? (Vista 64 bit) SOLVED!!

    For whomever this helps, I fixed my "Not enough memory to place file" problem (running Vista 64 Bit with lots of ram).
    After trying everything else (checking cache files, deleting preferences file, uninstalling nearly all fonts, increasing virtual ram on machine, etc.), I solved it by right clicking the launch icon, and then in the compatibility tab checking the "Run this program in compatibility mode for:" box and then choosing the XP OS from the drop down list.
    Oddly though, I have a nearly identical Vista 64 bit machine running the same Illustrator CS3 and this has no problems (without the need for this fix).
    Add this to your list of things to try.

    YES!  viveredesign is my new hero.
    Adobe, your programs drive me nuts some days.

  • "not enough memory to place file" in CS3 - Huh??

    Can't seem to find anything about this anywhere. User is trying to place PSD file into an AI document. When he does this, a dialog box pops up asking him which way he wants it placed (as an object or flatten document). When he chooses either option, he gets an error that there isn't enough memory to place the file.
    This just started happening out of nowhere. Any ideas?? Can't be the RAM on his Mac, as he has 6GB.

    Checki the Scratch disk I bet they are using the start up disk and they have good percentage of it loaded with files ad stuff. If it just started happening that is a good indication that they save one too many files to that disk.
    Select a different disk with lots of room as the scratch disk and then restart AI.

  • 'Not enough Memory' to export file to Photoshop

    I have a 1.2 MB file done in Illustrator that I can't export to Photoshop. I used a distort filter on the solid background and there are tons of points. Also, the file is 26" by 14". Other than that layer, it's not complex. I have 8GB ram and am using a Mac Pro 2x 3.2GHz. Should this be a problem? Even if I take out the complex layer and delete it, it still won't save.

    What resolution are you exporting to? 26˝ × 14˝ at 300 ppi is a pretty big file. 131,040,000 bytes for a one-layer CMYK file. More layers means multiplying that size.
    If all else fails, you can copy/paste the Illustrator file into Photoshop as a smart object or just open the Illustrator file in Photoshop. If you need to retain layers, then use the Smart Object option and hide or delete layers as needed for each of several copy/paste repetitions. I suggest adding a surrounding object on a new layer below all other layers for registration.
    For a four-layer file, add a fifth layer (we’ll call it “Layer 5”) at the bottom and draw a white rectangle the size of the artboard. Hide all but Layer 4 and Layer 5, select all, Copy, switch to Photoshop, Paste as Smart Object. Back in Illustrator, hide Layer 4, show Layer 3, Select All, etc. Repeat until all is copied over. In Photoshop, all the layers should be aligned, since they are all the same size. You can double-click on the disk icon in the Layers panel to edit each Smart Object in Illustrator and delete or hide Layer 5. Back in Photoshop rasterize all layers.

  • Not enough memory to open file

    I am unable to open a 1.7 mb file in photoshop 6.  I had it opened about 3 weeks ago but made no changes.  I downloaded a new copy of the file thinking my version was corrupted but no luck. I am running windows xp, 2.8 ghz celeron and just installed an additional 2gb of ram.  Naturally, photoshop is the only program i had running after a restart aside from the minimal startup windows nonsense.  Short of buying a mac or the latest version of photoshop, what can I do?
    Many thanks for any input.
    On a side note, I am able to open a 4.8 mb companion file to the one in question. Both are .psd files.

    Just for giggles, are you updated to Photoshop 6.0.1?
    http://www.adobe.com/support/downloads/product.jsp?product=39&platform=Windows
    If that does not work, consider trying to open the file in GIMP (http://www.gimp.org) or any other image editing program that supports your image filetype.

  • Not enough memory to save AI as PSD - CS4

    Win 7 64  8GB , tried anti-aliased on and off, checking "Use Artboards - all and range 1 (only one artboard) when I zoom out there is a lot of checkered area, this file is set to dv widescreen.
    I have only found the one thread on this and have tried all.
      I am creating a simple line wiring diagram to be used in a DVD, I was advised to export it to Photoshop to render for better clarity on screen.
    Any ideas would be appreciated.
    Thanks

    Thanks for the response Russell, I have tried that and I don't see any difference in the quality of a tiff from AI vs Acbt., there is a noticeable difference exporting from AI to Photoshop then to Premiere.

  • Not enough memory to export? CS4

    Hi all
    I wanted to export a 7 mg ai to a flattened, RGB 300 dpi .psd and got a 'not enough memory to save file' message. If this were an older machine or the .ai file was huge and the assigned scratch disk small I'd agree, but I'm thinking it must have something to do with a .tif file that was placed in the document.
    This is the second time I've ever placed art, so bear with any ignorance, please. The original .tif file is 2.5 mgs and then needed to be reduced considerably and to keep the file size down I chose to link it instead of embedding. Bad idea?
    Or is there something else that might cause this problem?  Thanks for any advice.
    EA

    First I will address the misconception of a 7MB being a small file when you want to export to say tiff or psd at only 300 ppi is actually at 8.5 x 11 inches is 64 MB 20x24 is 164 as 8 bit if it is being exported as cmyk add four layers and with content and it gets much larger. So 7MB is not an accurate way of describing what you are exporting better to give the dimensions and number of layers and complexity of the part does it have for instance paths with lots of points does it use a lot of symbols.
    Also do you have a scratch disk other than the startup disk, does it have a lot of free space, is it fragmented?
    What about your hardware, system and plug ins?

  • "Could not complete the Save As command because there is not enough memory (RAM)"

    I'm trying to save a file and an error keeps popping up saying ""Could not complete the Save As command because there is not enough memory (RAM)". I'm using Adobe Photoshop CS5 Extended. I have no other windows open. I checked the RAM allocated to Photoshop, in the Preferences > Performance tab, and I have tried it at 60% (980 MB) and 90% (1483 MB), still with no luck. I tried Purging the undo, clipboard and history with no help either.
    I read a couple of other posts that were similar to this and people suggested " resetting the preferences as described in the FAQ." but is there any way to do this without closing Photoshop?
    I can't loose this file, so any help woudl be appreciated.

    I'm sorry to hear it locked up on you, and with only a GIF saved (which is probably useless).  Perhaps I should have suggested Select All / Copy first.
    As far as what went wrong...  It might be helpful to know some of the specifics:
    What operating system are you running?
    Do you see any errors in the Windows error logs corresponding in time to this problem, and if so, what are the specifics?
    Do you have Photoshop updated to 12.0.3?
    What video card do you have, and do you have updated video drivers?
    Is OpenGL enabled in Edit - Preferences - Performance?
    What kinds of operations did you do since you started the session of Photoshop that ultimately went bad?
    What other applications were you running?
    What kind of computer is it (specifically, can you install more RAM)?
    It might not be possible to pinpoint just what went wrong, but perhaps we could make some general suggestions that might help.

    I've also purged undo and history, and still no luck. I tried doing Save as... and attempted to duplicate layers to a new file, and even tryied to "convert to smart object", but everything I try throws the not enough memory error.
    My system shows me using 3.7G/15.9G
    12.2 available
    6.3G/35.5G committed
    I also have 2 very large scratch disks available (with hundreds of available gigs), including a very fast SSD, and standard 7200 disk.

  • Message "Could not save because there is not enough memory (RAM)"

    Running Mac OS9.2.2 Suddenly start to get and error message " An error occured saving the enclosure "file name" Not enough memory" when trying to save an attachment in Microsoft Outlook. Same thing with Adobe Photoshop - when trying to save an any new file - message "Could not save because there is not enough memory (RAM)".
    Already Tried:
    During several freezes, suddenly my mac stop recognize any extensions. When used Microsoft Outlook and tried download an attachment got an error message type 3. So I create a new set in extensions manager and get ride of Type 3 error, but get a new error message "Not enough memory" when try to save an attachment, or "Not enough RAM" - when try to save an EPS file in Adobe Photoshop.
    In Outlook ("Get Info" section)changed memory size:
    Suggested Size: 7168 K
    Minimum Size: 16000 K
    Preferred Size: 16000 K
    In all mailboxes - there are not that many messages and they are not heavy at all, I checked them all before. And I rebuilt/compressed Outlook database - holding Option while restarted Outlook...
    Adobe Photoshop - started acting weird at same time. Even if I want to open a file through the menu: File - Open - it gives me the same message.
    Who has any clue - please help!!!

    Hi, Mike -
    I have Outlook Express's Preferred memory allocation set to 45000K, and don't have any problems with attachments. Don't be afraid of increasing OE's Preferred memory allocation (nor IE's, either - I have that set to 65000K).
    How large is the Messages file used by the account you're using in Outlook? You can examine that file here - (hard drive) >> Documents >> Microsoft User Data >> Identities >> (account folder, either the default "Main Identity" or one you've created) >> Messages.
    It seems that the Messages file grows with each email received; but does not shrink when an email is deleted. Over time, especially when lots of attachments are involved, that file can get huge.
    One way to help it not get too big is to -
    • delete attachments after copying them to the desktop. In case you're not familiar with the easy way to copy an attachment to the desktop - select the email so it opens; click the small triangle next to the legend "Attachments" between the upper pane and the lower pane in Outlook's main window; drag the attachment from the list out onto the desktop. It will be extracted and copied to that location. Once that has been done you can delete the attachment from the email with which it arrived.
    • after purging your emails of unneeded emails and attachments, compact the file. To do that, quit Outlook if it is running. Then hold down the Option key and start up Outlook. A splash screen will appear asking if you want to compact its database files - click yes. Follow the prompts.
    Compacting OE's database can also fix some instances of a damaged database that can't be used.
    If you could answer a few more questins, perhaps we can offer additional suggestions -
    1) How much RAM do you have installed? That means the physical RAM, not counting Virtual Memory in use, if any.
    2) How full is your hard drive - how big is it, how much free space is left unused?
    3) When was the last time you rebuilt the desktop file?
