Bridge runs low on memory CS5

Now I have a problem while working in photoshop and I open bridge if I open adjust and close a few raw images I get a message that says Bridge is running low on memory you should restart bridge. I looked for a memory adjustment and can't find it. Anyone know where it is?

OK, what changed a week ago? Did you add new hardware, add new software, updated any software, add any external devices?
If it worked before and not now, and the answer to the above is no, then reset the preferences by holdling down the Ctrl key and starting Bridge. You will get a reset window with 3 options.

Bridge running low on memory

Just had extra 4GB memory put into my iMac to fix memory issue with Bridge now have 8GB in total but problem not solved, apart from upgrading to a more powerful computer is there anything else I can do? (Running CS5)

apart from upgrading to a more powerful computer is there anything else I can do?
First check the amount of free space left on your computer and the check your system specs for the amount of VRAM on your graphic card. You need at least 15 % of free space left (more is better) and at least 256 VRAM.
Restart Bridge holding down option key to reset preferences and check again if it works

"Bridge is running low on memory and should be restarted" error

I am running Bridge CS4 on a DELL T-1650 with plenty of hard drive space. I am having trouble with indexing / caching files. My computer is connected to a large office server with a large amount of files that I need to be able to search. I recieve a "Bridge is running low on memory and should be restarted" error each time I attempt to index the files on the server drive. I have tried Purge and Cache, set the cache memory slider to max. This is a very large amount of files (TB ) to index /cache. I leave the computer running overnight to allow ample time, I nothing on my TB hard drive , and have 16GB of available RAM. Any ideas?

…My computer is connected to a large office server…
Aha! Working over a network is not supported by Adobe.
This is the boilerplate text often used in connection to saving to a network (please NOTE the part where it explains that normally, it does work, but that it is impossible to troubleshoot someone else's network remotely, and that's why it's not supported by Adobe):
If you are opening files over a network or saving them to a network server, please cease and desist immediately in the event you are currently experiencing problems with one or more files. Working across a network is not supported.
See:
http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/406/kb406793.html
Copy the CLOSED file from your server to your local hard disk, work on it, save it again to your local hard disk, close it, and copy the closed file back to the server.
Of course, the fact that Adobe does not support working across a network does not necessarily mean it won't work. It should.
Adobe's position is that there are too many variables in a network environment for them to guarantee that everything will work correctly in every network, especially given the fact that if something does not work properly, it's probably the network's fault, and Adobe has no way of troubleshooting your network.
If you can't work locally, you are on your own, and if something happens, you're on your own. If you must work from a server, make sure your network administrator is a competent professional.
When problems arise, a lot of valuable work can be lost.

Error Msg: Running low on memory.

I keep getting this error msg: 'Bridge is running low on memory. It is recommended that Bridge is restarted.' I am running a Mac OSX 1T and also use an external hard drive. I purged cache for the current folder, purged cache in ACR, tried refreshing my preferences by hitting option when opening Bridge, and raised my cache size to about 250,000 and nothing has worked! Please help!!!!!

Again, Julia, RAM is not drive "space" you can just "free up".
You have given us no information whatsoever about your setup and the exact versions of the applications and the OS you are running.
Depending on what you have, you may or may not be able to do anything other than add more memory (RAM) to your computer, if the machine can support more.
For instance, I run Photoshop and Bridge very comfortably with just 2 GB of RAM, but—and that is a huge BUT—I'm running Photoshop 11.0.2 under Tiger (Mac OS 10.4.11), and I have permanently disabled the abominable, intrusive Spotblight and the Dashboard on my ancient G4 Power Mac (PPC) machine. I even get away with occasionally running Illustrator or InDesign simultaneously as well. On the other hand, many folks who are running the latest versions of Photoshop and Bridge (CS5) under Snow Leopard (a.k.a. Slow Leper) feel that 8 GB is pretty much the bare minimum to run them these days.
Users who have 32 GB of RAM and more have no complaints.

Can't publish message: Server running low on memory

Hi All,
After looking through the documentation and using Ask BEA I have come up
with no answers to this message I have seen:
weblogic.log:Can't publish message: Server running low on memory.
I am setting the memory min and max to -ms256m -mx256m.
What does the error "Can't publish message: Server running low on memory."
mean? Is it a serious lack of memory resources, or is it just a warning
message that the server has hit its upper limit of the heap and it is about
to do garbage collection or is in the midst of garbage collection?

I am running low on memory, 80% of memory is with iTunes...

I am running low on memory, 80% of memory is with iTunes, how do I move my itunes library to an external HD and empty space to my mac? I have 1TB to my mac, a 1TB time capsule - which has a 2TB HD interfaced to it.
I look into the files and see movies, music and itunes - all of these has my movies located in them (movies are 85%) of my itunes memory. I am not sure what files to move to an external HD - if this is the right move to make...
Any suggestions would be greatly appreicated.

Yes you can move your iTunes Library to an External HD, however to be safe you should back up your iTunes Library Drive with another Drive.

What causes javax.jms.JMSException: Can't publish message: Server running low on memory?

I'm trying to debug a problem with an application running under
          Weblogic 5.11p11, Solaris 2.7. JMS has a JDBC backing store.
          The application runs fine unless we keep it under severe high load for
          a relatively long period of time (say a couple of hours) without
          giving it time to "breath". Then, we start getting these JMS
          exceptions: javax.jms.JMSException: Can't publish message: Server
          running low on memory
          I initially thought this was a GC problem: i thought the GC thread
          wasn't able to "catch up" because the server utilization was high.
          However, when i display Runtime.freeMemory() at the point where i get
          this JMSException, i can see that there is about 16MB (out of 64MB
          totalMemory) of allocatable memory. So it isn't really running out
          of memory!
          I'd appreciate any insights, pointers, etc., about this problem.
          Thank you in advance.

JMS 5.1 prevents new messages if the server as at 75% utilization. I think (not sure)
          that this can be turned off if desired, but I would not recommend doing so, as this feature prevents
          JMS messages from "hogging" all of the memory.

Always running low on memory

Hi,
I have 13" Macbook pro - mid 2010.
4 GB 1067 MHz DDR3
Nvidia GeForce 320M 256 MB
running 10.8.2 (12C60)
Apps which I typically have open at the same time are:
iPhoto 11 - version 9.4.1 (701.67)     (apx. 50 GB library)
iTunes 10 - version 10.7 (21)               (apx. 30 GB library)
Chrome    - 22.0.1229.94
My computer is constatnly running low on RAM.   After 1 day after reboot, it is very typcal that activity monitor will show only 10-100 MB "Free". "Inactive" memory is typically around 1.5 - 2 GB.
Activity monitor always shows as iPhoto as biggest culprit. taking up over 1 GB of RAM.
The thing is that I NEVER had _any_ issues before upgrading to Lion from Snow Leopard.   My MBP was always snappy and very fast.
But now, my MBP is starting to become un-useable.   I basically can't run iPhoto without bogging down my system. I livie in beach-ball city.   I didn't know what beach ball was before Lion.
I tried running disk-check and verify disk to see if something else was causing my MBP to be slow, but there were no problems.
Recently, I moved my iPhoto to external hard drive connected via firewire.    same problems.
I don't know even if it is worth it to upgrade RAM....maybe I'll end up with same problem.
I've read enough forum threads on "MAC memory problems" "MAC inactive memory" "iPhoto memory leaks" etc, that I really am not expecting a miracle answer.
Just some advice/guidance suggestions would be appreciated.
Lastly. My brother bought a new iMAC in 2011. don't know all the specs but it was lower range one with 4 GB RAM.    He has ZERO problems with memory on his machine.
Thanks,
Ben

Etresoft,
Thanks for your suggestions. Really appreciate your time on this.
I have to say, that I could not resist. I did upgrade to 8 GB today. Paid only $36 CAD. I couldn't resist.
However, I am conviced more than ever, that "something else" is going on with my system.
After installing 8 GB (2x4GB) I started up Aperature 3. 5 minutes later, my sytem was showing < 1 GB RAM available.
Regarding your comments from above - I used this laptop for work for a whiile, hence VBox and Wireshark and some extra plugins.

InDesign running low on memory

Hi,
I'm trying to develop a script that adds a number of AI-files to a new ID-document, saves the document and then exports the ID-document as PDF. Most of it seems to be working fine, but when I reach page 30-35(depending on which files I add), ID runs out of memory.
It's using ~1,3 GB memory, which is quite a lot, so the error is understandable.
What I don't understand is why it takes that much. At first I tried exporting the entire file at once (which gave me the above mentioned error and no output-file at all). I then added a "while-loop" that exported each page into it's own file (called 1.pdf, 2.pdf, 3.pdf etc.). Same result.
I tried adding $.gc(); x 2 for every 10 page that gets exported, but that doesn't seem to change anything whatsoever. The code can be seen here (I removed the pdf-prefs, since they aren't relevant I think):
"Counter" is a variable starting a 1, and "numberOfPages" is a variable containing the number of pages in the document. I'm at a bit of a loss here. Shouldn't InDesign release the memory, once it has exported each page?
    while(counter <= numberOfPages)
            if(counter == 10 || counter == 20 || counter == 30)
                $.gc();
                $.gc();
            with(app.pdfExportPreferences)
               //set the pagerange to the current page (counter) - convert to string to set pageRange to accept input
               myString = counter + "";
               pageRange = myString;
              lots of other pdf preferences goes here - deleted for readability
         try
             myDocument.exportFile(ExportFormat.pdfType, File(myFolder +"/" + counter +".pdf"), false, myPDFExportPreset);
         catch(e)
             alert(e);
         counter = counter + 1;
Let me know if you need further info.
Thanks in advance,
Thomas

You're probably correct. The files do tend to get quite heavy. But I was expecting Indesign to be able to release the memory after exporting a single page. Alas, it doesn't do that. I could also delete the page, but we would like to save the .indd-file as well
But I tried, just for the fun of it, to close the document and open it again after every 10 pages - and et voilá. It worked! It's not beautiful and I'm not gonna win any awards for it, but for now it'll have to do

Keep running low on memory

I keep getting an error message saying "Force Quit Applications" when the applications I am running are using nowhere near the amount of memory I have. I have an 8 GB 1333 MHx DDR3 Mac Book Pro running Mac OS X Lion 10.7.5. When I look in Activity Monitor I have a low amount of memory but I don't know why because the apps I am running barely total a gigabyte of memory.

"Flash Catalyst is running low on memory"

Hi everybody,
after long programming and using of flash catalyst on both PC and Mac, at the end I found this error message, labeled "Low Memory" followed by the subject of the post and with some "tips" to avoid it.
Obviously I tried everything the pop up told me (for is. rasterize my images) but on PC I'm stuck with this error (the one about low memory).
I tried to increase the memory of Virtual Java machine, editing the catalyst .ini file and I discovered that on PC and Mac the memory usage is different.
On my MacBookPro with 8GB Ram I can set up to 1400 for both Xms and Xmx value and I put up to 532 the value of MaxPermSize and PermSize.
On my PC, i7 with 12 GB of RAM I'm stuck at 800 for Xms/Xmx and 512 for Perms Size.
I "messed up" with the .ini file because I already received the error about the Java Heap Memory and I discovered on the net these good settings.
Although I can work with my MacBooKpro (but I don't know for how long...) I would like to ask you if there is a solution or a tip or something else to keep working with my catalyst project.
every answer will be really appreciated.
Thanks in advance
Gabriele

Beyond changing the ini file, keep looking at your assets for memory savings. Can any elements be flattened into one image? Can you lower the bit depth of elements.
Good luck,
Chris

"System is running low on memory" when exporting.

I'm using Premiere Pro CS3 (which, I'm aware has issues with system memory due to it being a 32bit program.)
It only seems to happen when I tie all my video segments together. It warns me to "save my project and proceed with caution," but as I export, it gets to 300 frames out of 12,000 and the entire program just crashes. All up they'd equal 2GB at the most with my export settings.
I've stopped any non-essential programs and applications, including my anti-virus out of desperation. (How clever)
I'm running Windows 7 Professional 64-bit SP1
Intel Core i7 3.60GHz CPU
16.0GB DDR3 RAM
60GB SSD as my OS (with 4.7GB free)
And am saving them to a 1TB HDD with more than enough room free.
As I'm exporting, my CPU and RAM are running well below 30%
As far as memory is concerned there's plenty of it. But, is there a way to increase how much Premiere Pro uses, similar to hosting a Minecraft server?
Or perhaps just tricking it?

As you are using PrPro CS 3, though on a 64-bit OS, I would also look at the Windows Virtual Memory (Page File) settings.
What is the size set for the Page File?
Where is the Page File located on your system?
Do you let Windows dynamically manage the Page File, or have you manually set its size?
For video editing, I set my Page File fairly large, and remove the Windows dynamic Page File management. That has worked well for me, and many others.
Good luck, and I am sure that Jim Simon will Move your post to the CS 4 & Earlier Sub-forum.

Bridge running out of memory?

HI There,
I have bridge open and I am going thru thru files. I have 1700 in the folder that I am looking in. Suddenly it says it can not complete request as there is no more memory. Then the program "unexpectedly crashes" . How can I sort this. Can I do anything about it at all ?
Thanks for your help.
Gary.

First try to reset preferences with holding down option key while restarting
Bridge.
Second, give more details about your version of Bridge, OS and of course the
amount of RAM, size of disk and free space left on your disk.
Can I do anything about it at all ?

Running low on memory

I have recently built my own desktop.
Specs:
nVidia GTX 760
i7-4770k
16gb Crucial Ballistix Sport Ram
I use after effects and photoshop in a pretty undemanding way (the most demanding thing I do is rotoscoping). However, when using premier pro (as well as after effects and media encoder) I keep getting this error message:
It sometimes happens when rendering my timeline, and almost always happens when I try to export. I'm editing 1080p 72mbps footage, with minor colour correction using premiere's native tools and a clip or two with 5-10 seconds of light rotoscoping and blur (dynamically linked with after effects).
As far as I'm aware I shouldn't be experience memory issues?
Any thoughts on this, and how to identify the problem?

In Windows ...
Control Panel -> System -> Performance Information & Tools -> Advanced Tools -> Adjust the Appearance & performance of Windows -> Advanced tab -> Virtual Memory and click "change".
Windows normally sets a "system managed size" which jumps up and sometimes down, and can at times be quite larger than needed or ... less than needed.
One of the recommendations that's been used a lot is use a "Custom" size setting, set an initial size roughly equal to your RAM and then a max maybe 4 times that.You can also choose which drive/drives to use. It's better to use a fast drive & connection, as these are read AND write files remember ... stuff that oft needs quick access. On my old computer I had this on an SSD that was my cache/pagefile drive; on the one I've got now, with a pair of 240Gb SSD's in RAID 0 for system, I've got both room & speed there for them ... and I use a 120Gb SSD for all video app cache/preview files.
I've just purchased a PNY 128Gb US3 flash-drive (was less the $40) for trying for media files in a working project, as someone else here noted. Spreading out my "stuff" on as many buses as possible, and as the media files is ONLY a read situation, USB3 should be adequate. While looking this up, I found that several people who have only a few discs on their machine who used these as their pagefile locations for Windows and found a bit better operations.
Again, that Tweaker's Page has a LOT of info on this sort of thing ...

Bridge CS4 - low on memory error

Hi - I am getting this error rather frequently after processing e.g. 50 RAW images in a batch. With plenty of RAM (4GB) on WIN XP Pro. Any hints will be much appreciated.
Vlad

As I see it, the problem is somewhere in understanding of users rights
on disk where cache is located.
In my case the problem was because I didn't have enough rights on drive
where Cache was (wich is stupid since I'm the only user of my comp), so
Bridge couldn't write it's date on target disk).
I don't know for yours , but john-o-eid's problem could be conected with
the same issue. It could happen also in situations when there are
more users and not everyone's rights were assured in phase of CS4
installation, since cache is located by default in folder of user that
installs it. In my case it was
C:\users\daregre\AppData\Roaming\Adobe\Bridge CS4\Cache (in XP instead
of C:\users..., C:\Documents and Settings...).
So either every user must set Cache for himself in his
C:\users\....\Cache directory, or ensure that everyone that uses
computer has WRITING rights on drive where Cache is. So:
1. check out if you've changed settings for cache location, (or someone
else did),
2. check everyone's rights on that drive (Control Panel>User Accounts,
perhaps also in disk sharing advanced options).
3. remove every possible restriction of rights for that drive on your
and other common user accounts (guest, everyone ...).
Good Luck!
