C: drive low on memory

Hello,
Lately I have been getting a lot of 'Low C drive' memory errors.
I was doing updates on Ovi.
Checking my C drive - I cannot find any folders that have huge amounts of file data on them.
Doing the Details on the C drive - 58 megs is taken up by .sis files
First of all - I can't find them - I cannot find a C drive folder that houses them - I did a search for .sis they are found on my E drive.....
2ndly do I need to keep them (if I can find them)
Thanks,

Do you mean "SIS applications" when using the details option in the phones file manage?
If so I don't think that is a problem as it's about the same on mine, and is, I believe, the app that need to be installed on C I have attached a screen shot of my drive details, I have an equal amount of the mysterious "other files" bt very little other stuff on C
I have noticed when checking app defaults that some try to save data onto C, so if you have lots of photos or other data files on your C, change the app options and move the data files onto E
Cleaing browser caches may also help to free up space I think that there are third party file manager apps that allow you to see the contents of system directories, but wouldn't be confidemt to say what you could safely remove.

  • I have an iPod G2 with a firewire 400 lead. how can I attach it to my new 13 inch Mac book Pro, is there a 400 to 800 firewire converter. USB lead wont work with the Macbook Pro. iPod used as an external drive to archive memory cards on the go.

    My G2 iPod that I use as an external drive to archive memory cards on the go cannot link with my new 13" Macbook Pro cause it uses a firewire 400 lead. It will not work with a USB lead. Is there a firewire 800 ipod lead or converter available? Can any one shed some light on this please?

    As far as I know, if a harddrive works with a Macpro, it should work with the Macbook: if your Macbook is low on power, plug in the AC adapter
    If your Macbook has a firewire port, then it should be fine. BUt i would do somemore research first.

  • "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.

  • Low on memory error in PPCC

    Never had a problem before. But just in the last two weeks, PPCC crashes with this low on memory error. The PC itself still runs like a speed demon on everything else but PPCC.
    Checked for hard drive and cache issues, everything I could think of. It is not the PC. I may need to check settings on PPCC itself. Maybe something odd happened.
    Anyone who is good at this stuff, your help would be appreciated.

    Hi christene,
    Are the whole 4GB RAM recognized in BIOS properly?
    Theoretically it could be also a software issue of Windows. Maybe you have a virus on it and nobody knows how much programs you are start.
    Have you tried a system restore to an earlier point?

    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.

    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.

  • Rendering and Low System Memory issues in PE9.

    Hello again.
    N.B: I am an ex-PE3 user.
    I am having a few issues with PE9.
    1. My main issue is that I am regularly getting the 'low system memory; please proceed with caution' message. I have googled it and read people's suggestions, but am not sure where to go from here. I have tried saving my file under another name, but am already up to '....E' (fifth) version of the file I've been working on this afternoon. The total time of the project is only approx 45 min's, although I will say that this 'low system memory' issue seems to be worst today, as I'm adding more still photos.
    2. One of the suggestions made by Steve G on one of the forums was to make sure projects are regularly rendered. When I hit 'Enter' to render, the little render window pops up for a split second and then disappears. And I would assume from the red line above my timeline that my file is not rendered.
    3. When I switch to 'Sceneline' view, my horizontal scroll-bar across the bottom will only drag SO far (to a certain point in my project; but definitely not to the end of my project. It is really frustrating. I sometimes can fix it by flicking between Sceneline and Timeline, but I have to do this multiple times... and it seems a ridiculous way to do it.
    It would be fantastic if someone could help me with these issues, please!

    Hi everyone:
    Thankyou for all your suggestions.
    Sorry, Bill, but both those links give me an error message. I was all set to read them, but they won’t work, unfortunately.
    What is meant by ‘page file managed’, sorry? And do you mean ‘hard disk drives’ by HDD, or does it stand for something else in this context? I’m not sure what you mean by how do I have them allocated. Again, apologies for my ignorance. I do have only one HDD, but it is partitioned.
    The image sizes all seem to have a depth of 24, but vary in dimensions – I can see that some are quite large (around 3 mg in size, with dimensions of 4288x2848, for example). Is the actual mg-size relevant, or only the physical length and width?
    I have tried to look at the frame size of my project, but it seems to be greyed out. In pale digits, there is 720x576 written.
    Just before I sent this, I thought of one other thing to try first.
    I tried starting a ‘New Project’. I then inserted just 6 still photos, for experimentation purposes. I then hit ‘Enter’ and the Rendering window came up and appears to have rendered correctly. So I then tried looking at one of my other projects (that hadn’t previously been rendered) and tried to render it. In this case, as in for the project I am currently working hard on, the Rendering window flashes up for about ¼ of a second and then disappears.
    What is going on???

  • 500GB iMac, 246GB used, yet low disc memory, down to 500MB at times..

    Hi, so my iMac is 1 year old. According to Time Machine, Disc Inventory X, and OmniDiscSweeper, I've only used 246GB of the 500GB my iMac comes with, but Finder often shows me fluctuating between 14GB of available memory and 500MB. I'm getting a lot of low disc memory warnings, and so I checked my drive with Disk Utility. My Hard drive is corrupt, but to do a clean install, I need something of 20GB available memory. Any help would be appreciated, I've backed everything up, and now I just need to get enough available memory to do a clean install. Thanks in advance.

    Alright, thanks. TB means Time Machine Back up?
    I erased my Mac's hard drive, reinstalled, then restored from Time Machine.
    I now have 238GB available disc space, which is about right. My disc utility now verifies my hard drive as appearing ok (it was corrupt before).
    I've somehow lost over 1000 songs though, iTunes simply can't locate them. Has anyone run into this before or have any possible things to try?

  • Contribute "low on memory" and Acrobat won't redraw

    I have two issues that I believe may be related.  First here's my system information
    WinXP SP3
    Intel Core2Duo E6550 = (2.33GHz)
    3GB RAM
    GeForce 8600GTS 512 MB Video
    Running two 19" monitors, (at 1440x900 each)
    Creative Suite Premium 2.0 (InDesign CS2, Photoshop CS2, IllustratorCS2, Acrobat 7 Professional, BridgeCS2, GoLive CS2Version Cue is disabled.)
    Production Studio Premium 1.0 (Premiere Pro 2, Encore DVD 2, After Effects 7, Audition 2)
    Contribute CS3, (including Bridge CS3, but I don't use it, I use Bridge CS2 for everything).
    First Issue.  Intermittently, in both Adobe Reader 9, and Acrobat 7.0 pdf files that I have open will not display in the window properly, unless I reduce the size of the window to something quite small.  It will show the desktop in behind the window, or if I open a window on top, it shows that window even when I've moved it.
    The second problem is similar, but occurs in Contribute CS3 and is always accompanied by a "Your system is low on memory..." error, until I reduce the size of the Contribute window, at which point, it is so small that it becomes unuseable.
    The only other program that I have open at the time is Outlook 2007, with a couple of messages.
    As this is happening, I open the Task Manager, see that there is plenty of available Physical Memory, and the CPU Usage is very low, under 10%.  I've set my virtual memory paging file to Custom Size of 4591MB.
    The only way to fix it is to reduce the size of windows or close all the programs.  These two problems occur independently of each other.  Sometimes when I'm just trying to open a PDF file.
    3GB should be plenty to run Contribute and Outlook, or Acrobat and Bridge.
    What the heck is going on?

    Thanks for the reply.
    Yes I have tried that, but to no avail.  The crazy thing is that it only really happens after I've been working in Contribute for a while.  Sometimes an hour or more.  Then it just starts doing this.
    The redraw problem also affects other programs, that are not Adobe programs.  For example, when I open a Remote Desktop Connection to the web server where I am publishing, while this problem is occuring, the screen will not "draw" properly either.
    I have a feeling that there is something strange about how Contribute, and Acrobat, and Windows share the memory, either the system memory, or the graphics memory.
    Could this also be a problem caused by having both CS2 and CS3 programs installed?

  • Snow Leopard 'error code 50', 'Low Application memory'. Help.

    Hi.
    I've been facing **** lot of problems with my MBP of late, and all that I could try have turned unfruitful. I'd appreciate some help.
    Problems started when I downloaded and tried to install SL update 10.6.7 on 10.6.6. It was working fine on 10.6.6. The update failed, and I received 'error code 50' very often while deleting files from Trash. Also, 'beach-balling' became more frequent, and I had to force quit applications very often because of 'low application memory' box being displayed.I also encountered the grey screen prompting me to 'press power button till shut down and restart'.
    Finally, I tried a clean reinstall but the same problems persisted, and lots of applications stopped working. I could not download files from browser (Low disk space, despite a 100 GB space available on he HD) or save textedit, Office or iWork files. I did a clean reinstall again, with zero-erase option and again downloaded the 10.6.7 combo update. The 'Software Update' application failed. I downloaded the update from my browser and it was installed successfully finally after 4 system restarts, but the 'error code 50' problem still persists.
    What am I doing wrong? I've been dealing with this abnormal performance for more than a month. I haven't backed up files because there is no use making a backup of corrupt system. Specs : MBP'09, 13.3". 2.26 GHz, 160 GM, SL 10.6.7.
    Please advice.
    Regards.

    I tried to run the hardware test by inserting the Applications Install dvd and pressing 'D' just after the chime. It did not run. Nevertheless, the App DVD is ejected every time I insert it in to install some apps, like iLife etc. Running Disk Utility dies not work, as it says the 'disk cannot be mounted'.
    I tried another clean reinstall of SL 10.6, and some of the funny stuff are :
    1. error code 50 yet again
    2. It won't allow me take snapshots, saying 'You do not have permission to save snapshots etc.."
    3. Safari cannot download files
    4. 'Low Application Memory' message box appeared a few times, prompting me to Force Quit Safari.
    Could there be something wrong with the Install DVD? Though Disk Utility First Aid shows error free HD verification.

    I developed a report, which is running fine in development and in quality , but when it runs on production , it shows the dump 'low paging memory'. how to resolve this , can any one sujjest please ?

    Hi,
    1) Run a trace ST05 in ur quality system and fine tune the memory consuming select queries.
    2) Discuss with the basis regarding this error, probably they can help you out by increasing some space in pRODN.

    How do I point iMovie to events in my external  hard drive so I can play projects which use them?
    MacBook, iMovie 9.0.4

    Hi
    You can do this - by not doing it the way You describe as it will not work.
    a. the external hard disk - MUST BE - Mac OS extended (hfs) formatted -
    UNIX/DOS/FAT32/Mac OS Exchange - will work for most things - BUT NOT FOR VIDEO (iMovie, iDVD or FinalCut doesn't matter)
    b. Do not alter or move any folder named
    • iMovie Event's - or -
    • iMovie Project's
    on DeskTop/Finder - at all
    All moving's of Events and Projects must be done within the iMovie Application - then connections will not break.
    (move them back and see if iMovie remembers them - then do move as described above)

  • Low system memory issue - caused by Mail?

    While I was at work, my wife was using our iMac at home, and she said that a weird error dialog appeared this afternoon that asked her to quit applications, following which the system became unresponsive.
    When I came home I found that a lot of running applications were in a hung state (unresponsive and required a Force Quit) so I rebooted the iMac.
    I looked in the Console and saw that at 15:39:37 today two errors started repeating at an enormous rate - something like 5000 times per second for the next 5 seconds:
      12/02/2015 15:39:36.373 Mail[226]: *** Assertion failure in -[MCSocket readBytes:maxLength:error:], /SourceCache/Mail/Mail-2070.6/MailCore/Networking/MCSocket.m:469
      12/02/2015 15:39:36.381 Mail[226]: exception parsing IMAP response: trying to read/write concurrently
    ...then at 15:39:42 the rate suddenly decreases to only about 10 errors per second. This continued for a further 15 minutes, until at 15:55:22:
      12/02/2015 15:55:22.000 kernel[0]: low swap: suspending pid 226 (Mail)
      12/02/2015 15:55:22.590 loginwindow[797]: -[ProcessPanel(lowMem) initAsLoMemPanel] | Lo-Memory panel initializing
    ...then lots of errors like this:
      12/02/2015 15:55:23.000 kernel[0]: memorystatus_thread: idle exiting pid 999 [com.apple.MailSe]
      12/02/2015 15:55:24.000 kernel[0]: memorystatus_thread: idle exiting pid 1000 [com.apple.InputM]
      12/02/2015 15:55:25.000 kernel[0]: memorystatus_thread: idle exiting pid 269 [com.apple.intern]
    So it looks to me like the Mail app went haywire, the Mac ran low on memory, so OS X made some kind of "Lo-Memory panel" appear to handle it.
    A quick search in Google Images revealed that there is such a thing as an OS X low memory error - the exact text of which is "Your system has run out of application memory. To avoid problems with your computer, quit any applications you are not using". It displays a list of running apps so you can quit them. The error looks something like this:
        http://i.imgur.com/HDplIwv.jpg
    When I showed this picture to my wife she said that is exactly what she saw.
    I will report this to Apple on their feedback page. If anyone has any other suggestions let me know. Obviously something that can bring down the entire system like this is not good.

    There is excessive swapping of data between physical memory (that is, the memory chips on the logic board) and virtual memory (one or more files on the startup volume.) That activity is relatively slow and causes the whole system to be less responsive. It can happen for two reasons:
              A long-running process with a memory leak (a kind of bug)
              Not enough memory for your usage pattern
    Please note that if the cause is a memory leak, installing more memory will not help. That's likely if you already have more than 4 GB of memory. Tracking down a memory leak can be difficult, and it may come down to a process of elimination.
    These instructions are for OS X 10.9 and later. Some details may be slightly different for earlier versions of OS X.
    When you notice the swap activity, open the Activity Monitor application and select All Processes from the View menu, if it's not already selected. Select the Memory tab. Click the heading of the Real Mem column in the process table twice to sort the table with the highest value at the top. If you don't see that column, select
              View ▹ Columns ▹ Real Memory
    from the menu bar.
    If one process (excluding "kernel_task") is using much more memory than all the others, that could be an indication of a leak. A better indication would be a process that continually grabs more and more real memory over time without ever releasing it. Here is an example of how it's done.
    The processes named "Safari Web Content" render web pages for Safari. They use a lot of memory and may leak if certain Safari extensions or third-party web plugins are installed. Consider them prime suspects.
    Another process often implicated in memory leaks is "inkjet4" or "inkjet8," which is a component of the HP printing software. If it's present, force-quit the process in Activity Monitor to solve the problem temporarily. Empty the print queues in the Printers & Scanners preference pane (which has a slightly different name in each recent version of OS X.) If you don't use an HP printer, reset the printing system. Otherwise, if the problem is recurrent, update the software (which may not help) or contact HP support.
    "Wired" memory should be a small part of the total. That memory is not swapped, but it makes less physical memory available which may then result in swapping. If you have a lot of wired memory, that's usually an indication of a memory leak in a third-party program that modifies the operating system at a low level. Ask for guidance in that case.
    If you don't have an obvious memory leak, your options are to install more memory (if possible) or to run fewer programs simultaneously.
    The next suggestion is only for users familiar with the shell. For a more precise, but potentially misleading, test, run the following command:
    sudo leaks -nocontext -nostacks process | grep total
    where process is the name of a process you suspect of leaking memory. Almost every process will leak some memory; the question is how much, and especially how much the leak increases with time. I can’t be more specific. See the leaks(1) man page and the Apple developer documentation for details.
