What does "After Effects error: Not enough memory to initialize PSL. ( 83 :: 8 )" mean?

So, about a week ago I did a fresh install of 64-bit Windows 7 Ultimate on a new PC, and subscribed to the Adobe Creative Cloud, installing After Effects CS6 and Photoshop CS6 from the Adobe Application Manager, then doing all updates (and I just checked right now at 10:35PM on July 26th, I have the latest versions of everything).
After Effects was working completely normal, then just now, I tried to import a Photoshop .psd and I got the error message:
After Effects error: Not enough memory to initialize PSL.
( 83 :: 8 )
Then After Effects crashed. So now it opens up normally, but when I try to import a .psd or open an After Effects project saved from an earlier version of After Effects (CS3 to CS5) I get the same error and a crash, every single time.
Searching the forums, I see people talking about this error when importing .psds into CS5, and they say that getting the latest updates solved the issue for them (which obviously can't help me). I'm running all legit software on a brand new computer with 32 GB of RAM which has passed all my physical stress tests so I know it's not hardware related.
The one thing I saw people suggest is to hold down Ctrl-Alt-Shift when starting the program. When I do this, Windows asks if I want to allow After Effects to make changes to the system, and when I say yes, I can import .psds and open the older AE files. When I close After Effects and reopen it without holding down the Ctrl-Alt-Shift keys, it goes right back to crashing.
Obviously the smart-*** answer is "then hold down Ctrl-Alt-Shift, dummy", and I'll do that for now, but is there any clue what the problem is?
I feel like kind of a chump because I decided to stop using my student versions of Adobe software (I haven't been a student for about four years) and pay the full price for the cloud membership and the latest creative suite, and it's full of bugs.

Now, I get the same ( 83 :: 8 ) error listed above, followed by a new dialog window that reads:
After Effects error: Crash in progress. Last logged message was: <4488> <DynamicLink> <5> C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Premiere Pro CS6\Adobe Premiere Pro.exe
Then, when I click OK, I get:
After Effects can't continue: sorry, After Effects has crashed. For After Effects Help and Support, go to http://www.adobe.com/go/learn_ae_support. If you still can't resolve the issue, please contact Adobe Technical Support (2).
( 0 :: 42 )
Clicking OK to that gives me a chance to save the latest project, then the standard Windows 7 crash dialog window opens, the one that gives me the choice of "Check online for a solution and close the program" or just "Close the program" and lets me View problem details, which are:

    Hello!
    Have error in AEF CS6 when i try to use layer styles in AEF. Error is  "not enough memory to initialize PSL 83::8"
    It works good if i start programm as Administrator.
    My PC is: Windows 7, Intel core 7 with 2.7 Ghz, 6 Gb RAM, Nvidia GeForce 240.
    I think i already know what the problem is:
    After i bought my new SSD in need to change all temp files and scrathes disks to another HDD. And in conflicts with AEF ....
    How can i fix it?

    How can i fix it?
    Check your file and folder permissions. Moving stuff around may invalidate old security tokens for user-specific folders. You may simply need to reclaim them and "Take Ownership" in the Security tab --> Advanced of your file properties dialog.

  • Not enough memory to initialize AGM?

    Hello everyone,
    I am getting the following error when I attempt to open a project:
    After Effects error: not enough memory to initialize AGM ( 83 :: 8 )
    The project is pretty big and I only have 2GB of RAM.
    Anyone else ever encounter this or have a solution?
    This project is the most complicated one I have attempted, loosing it is a dreadful thought :(
    Thank you!

    Hello,
    I am also having the same problem. This is my first time seeing this problem, as I have worked with two previous projects before without running into this problem. I tried opening a template that I have downloaded but After Effects pops up with the message "not enough memory to intialize AGM" and then crashes.
    I am running on After Effects CS4, Windows 7 Professional 32-bit, Intel Core Dual @1.73GHz, 2GB of RAM, and 186GB of HDD space. My graphics card is the Intel Integrated graphics.
    Can anyone help me figure out what's going on?
    Thanks in advance.

  • Not enough memory to initialize the system??

    Hi,
    I am trying to write a little MIDlet but have experienced some trouble with starting the MIDlet. I use the phone S55 and the MIDlet has about 12KB.
    There are about 9 displayables all extending List but one, which is just a string item. All runs fine up to that time, but then when I add two other displayables each including one text filed in order to add and save some info in a recordstore (the record store is even commented out) the mobile just show the message "please wait" and runs for some minutes. Once it also showed the message "not enough memory to initialize the system". But that can`t be because of two new displayables with text fields, can`t.
    I appreciate any help.
    Thx

    It actually really seams, that the problem occures as soon as I create an Object:
    private SaveLP saveLP = new SaveLP();
    and the Class looks like this:
    import javax.microedition.lcdui.*;
    public class SaveLicencePlate extends Form implements CommandListener {
    private LicencePlate licencePlate = new LicencePlate();
    private TextField textField1;
    /**Construct the displayable*/
    public SaveLicencePlate() {
    super("Car Licence Plate");
    try {
    jbInit();
    } catch(Exception e) {
    e.printStackTrace();
    /**Component initialization*/
    private void jbInit() throws Exception {
    // set up this Displayable to listen to command events
    textField1 = new TextField("", "", 15,TextField.ANY);
    textField1.setLabel("Neues Autokennzeichen");
    textField1.setMaxSize(10);
    setCommandListener(this);
    addCommand(new Command("Zur�ck", Command.EXIT, 1));
    addCommand(new Command("Save", Command.OK, 1));
    this.append(textField1);
    /**Handle command events*/
    public void commandAction(Command command, Displayable displayable) {
    if (command.getCommandType() == Command.EXIT) {
    MIDlet1 midlet = MIDlet1.getInstance();
    Display.getDisplay(midlet).setCurrent(licencePlate);
    }else if (command.getCommandType() == Command.OK){
    I mean, I wrote MIDlets before and never had a problem with a textField. Or do you see anything else that has the mistake?

    Hello, Ludek Uher
    I have troubleshot
    When you create the report and you do connection to Oracle through driver ODBC, you are necessary to specify paremetr Ole DB Services = -1. This customisation says ODBC driver to use the Pool of connections.
    Now the connection error does not arise. driver ODBC tries to use existing connections instead.
    And I add code on page:
         protected void Page_Disposed(object sender, EventArgs e)

  • While networking with labview 8.5 it gives error"not enough memory for this operation" ??

    hi
    i m working with the labview networking for the first time, when i ran my code it worked well 4 sometime . but after some days, it started giving error " not enoug memory for this operation" when the data reaches at 'typecast' tool (refer my code). my OS is winXP and RAM is 496MB. how to solve this problem?please reply soon .

    Hi JAhmed,
    Looking at your code, there may be a memory issue with the way you are type casting the string output from your TCP Reads. Since you are type casting a string to a number or array, you are not giving an indication of how much memory to allocate for this data, and I would suggest instead using an Unflatten From String VI. Use this VI the same way as your Type Casts, but for the input that reads "data includes array or string size?" create a false constant value because your data does not include this information.

    If your layers in Photoshop document are fairly complex, then working with them frequently can be little tough keeping in mind that you're using both Photoshop and your OS as 32-bit only. Photoshop will use some portion of the scratch disk as its virtual RAM when it is out of memory using its available memory that you have set for Photoshop in its preferences. The hard drive spaces left in your C drive may fall short depending on the page file size you've set for Windows becasue Photoshop expands an image to its actual resolution when it is opened in Photoshop/placed in Photoshop layer, thus taking up a lot of memory depending on the size and resolution of the image.
    Make sure no other programs are running in the background along with Photoshop. If you're working with a dual monitor, try disconnecting one of the monitors and see if that resolves the issue. Keep the history/ clipboard clean. Frequent saves will help in this matter.

  • 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?

  • INTERNAL ERROR & NOT ENOUGH MEMORY error

    Somehow 4 gig of memory is not enough!!
    I am on Win Vista ultimate. intel Core 2 Duo 2.66 4 BG of
    Ram.
    And I'm working on a local hard drive with fat all else
    running
    I constantly get "Internal Error occurred...could not complete
    request"
    particularly alarming if that request was to save!!!!. I have
    been using the 'fireworks autobackup" air app...save me heaps of
    time...But its taking longer and longer to save the file as I work
    on it.
    If i save every 10 minutes !!!! its taking 1:20 to save..this
    is 12% of my time...FW STILL sucks memory somehow..
    any one with solution to this!!!???
    Ive also had the "not enough memory" error a few times..In
    which every thing done on the file is lost since last it was
    opened...whether I saved it a million times or not. I've started
    making copy backups and restarting FW every few hours to purge the
    memory..but this sucks. This memory leak seemed to be mostly gone
    in CS3 according to others so assumed CS4 had it sorted

    One of our users is running across a similar issue using the
    pen tool. A file that's 3000x2000 having sections cut out using the
    pen tool will spike FW up to 2gig of used ram. Eventually the
    Internal Error messages will start but, you can still trace your
    path. The issue is it pops up every time you click a new point. The
    only current work around I have for the user is to shrink the file
    or decrease the dpi. Has anyone else run across this?

    Hi,
    the out of memory error is not an error wich comes out of a VI itself, the error occurs at an particular VI but most likely isn't caused alone by this VI.
    Plus the error isn't trackable without the whole setup, so having the camera and the robot itself in your case.
    However I can give you a couple of pointers, where you can start taking a look at it and work at it:
    The error is most likely caused by your multiple bitmaps, wich stress out the memory
    Use the LabVIEW 64bit edition, because it is designed for vision applications, you need the extra amount of memory wich can be addressed by a 64bit application
    Take a look at the VI in wich the error occurs, look at the memory usage and try to go through it step by step, the purpose of this is, to see where the memory usage gets out of hand
    Best Regards,
    Frank
