1.) This is a cross post_ -> openjdk-gc mailing list. If you need professional help buy a cupport contract by SUN!
2.) Are you using RMI or Direct-ByteBuffers? Does it also happen if you specify the disable explicitGc option?

  • Can't add songs- memory not full

    Um...i downloaded the new version of itunes and it is installed on my computer. however, when i go to add songs to my ipod from my library it says that my software is too old and i need tp upgrade. (but i just did) what do i do?

    Perhaps it means your iPod's software needs updating? This can be especially important if you are adding/syncing iTMS purchased music files.
    Make sure that you have the latest iPod Updater software
    - Download the Update Installer to your PC (do not run it from the web site).
    - Place the file on the Desktop, or in a Folder you can remember/find.
    - You also need to install the Updater software by double-clicking on the file that downloads.
    - After you install the Updater to your PC, reboot your computer.
    - After rebooting, run the Updater.
    --- Go to: Start ==> Programs ==> iPod.
    - It should initialize then ask you to connect an iPod.
    - Connect the iPod when asked (not before) and you should have two options available: Update or Restore.
    --- Choose the Update option and it will update your iPod's firmware to the latest version.
    --- Choose the Restore option and it will update your iPod's firmware to the latest version and format (erase) your iPod's hard drive.

  • Windows Mail could not be started. Make sure that your disk is not full or that you are not out of memory (0x800C0155).

    I have Vista SP2. Every time I open Firefox (3.6.13), I get three consecutive error messages:
    1) Windows Mail could not be started. The application was unable to open the Windows Mail message store. Your Windows Mail mailbox data is currently being used by another program, such as a virus scanner. Close the program or wait for it to complete its operation, then open Windows Mail again (0x800C0155).
    2) Windows Mail could not be started. Make sure that your disk is not full or that you are not out of memory (0x800C0155).
    3) Windows Mail could not be started because MSOE.DLL could not be initialized.
    This series of messages continue to recur during my Firefox session and eventually will freeze up my session.
    I use Gmail. I do not use Windows Mail or Outlook Express and deleted Windows Live Mail. There is a a file named msoe.dll using the path C: /Program Files/Windows Mail. I also found C:/Program Files/Windows Live/RemoteActiveX even though I thought I deleted all Windows Live programs.
    I have set Firefox as the default browser. Also, in Firefox, if I click on "File=>Send Link", it triggers the series of three error messages above.
    I don't understand why Gmail would reference Winmail. Any ideas how I can fix this? Can I or should I delete the Windows Mail and Windows Live folders?

    I have had many problems with permissions on Windows Vista, 7,8 & 81.1.  It is usually after an update or installation, especially one that requires a reboot to finish (some AVG, Windows Live, Windows Updates, etc).  Once File(s), Folder(s)
    and Registry Key(s) permissions are screwed up, it can take days to work them out if ever.
    After having spent several hours on a clients PC and online forums with this problem.  I transferred her user profile with a free program called
    Transwiz (run as Administrator) to a zip file on the HDD.  I renamed her user in manage User Accounts to "Username old".  I then ran Transwiz again to restore the profile but telling it to create a new user using the original Username.
     After it completed restoring the profile, I logged out of "Username old" and logged in to Username and all wass well, I only needed to supply the email password which is not transferred.  When you move profile data, all the old permissions
    have to be removed and <st1:personname w:st="on">new</st1:personname> permissions added so the data and files belong to the <st1:personname w:st="on">new</st1:personname> user.  This cleared up all the permission
    problems.

  • HT201269 Hi, I have 227 songs in my itunes, when im trying to get them to new iphone 5s-only 66 songs are coming, memory is not full, any helpfull tips pls?

    Hi, I have 227 songs in my itunes, when im trying to get them to new iphone 5s-only 66 songs are coming, memory is not full, any helpfull tips pls?Thnx

    I should mention that, for the first problem, I do make sure that my new tracks are stored in the folder where I told iTunes that my music is in. Also, when I say the cataloging of my library stops short of cataloging all my songs, I have tried leaving the computer unattended for days (my computer's sleep mode is disabled). It always stops before cataloging all of my music regardless of whether I am doing something else while iTunes is cataloging, or if I just let iTunes be the only program that's open during the cataloging process.

  • I am trying to restore my phone but everyone I go to do it, it goes to Update which takes 2 and a half hours, and everytime it fails. Ive tried four times now. I'm trying to restore because it says my memory is full, when it is not. I'm so frustrated.

    I am trying to restore my phone, but when i go to do it on iTunes, it Updates to 4.3.3 however everytime the 2 and a half hour update finishes, it FAILS. So the update fails, and the restore fails. Its happened 4 ties.
    Im trying to restore my phone, because it says my memory is full when its not and an online solution says to restore. I cant restore because it wont let me update.
    Im so frustrated, i cant take any pictures, download any music or apps, and its really getting me down. Please can someone help.

    This error generally indicates a hardware failure.  Bring the phone to Apple for evaluation.

  • "Blackberr​y message memory is full!" when it's not - please help!

    Hello,
    I wonder if anyone could help me please. I have a Curve 9360 (OS 7.1.0.336) that I've only owned for a few months. About a week ago, out of the blue, I started to get the message: "Blackberry message memory is full! Please delete some sms messages". I know the memory isn't full for three reasons -
    Firstly because I have plenty of memory left on the phone;
    Secondly because I can send as many messages as I want and make them as long as I want - so I am actually increasing the overall amount of messages. The message only pops up when I try to receive a message, and only by deleting received messages will it let another one through;
    Thirdly because I can, for example, delete a text message that is 1 message long (in the first 160 characters) and receive one that is 7 messages long (the limit for blackberry sms). So in this sense I am also actually using more memory.
    This seems like a glitch to me, but I have no idea how/why it arose, or any idea how to fix it.
    I have tried a battery pull, which didn't do anything.
    Thank you very much in advance for any help!

    Prince2012, thank you for your welcome and replying. I had already checked that "Leave messages on SIM card" was unticked. And yes, deleting unwanted messages is how I'm getting by at the moment, but it's not solving the problem.

  • My 2 TB Time Capsule's memory is full because it will not automatically delete old files as it is supposed to, so it is giving me zero backup of my two computers now.  How can this be fixed so my Time Capsule deletes the old data and saves the new?

    My 2 TB Time Capsule’s memory is full because it will notautomatically delete old files as it is supposed to, so it is giving me zerobackup of my two computers now. How can this be fixed so my Time Capsule deletes the old data and savesthe new?
    Neither my local computer consultant nor I have been ableto change any of the settings in Time Machine to correct this problem.  Working with the choices in the TimeMachine, there does not appear that there is any way to change the frequency ofthe backups either, so, after a year has elapsed, the time capsule is full, andmy only choice appears to be to erase all the current data on the Time Capsuleand start over, something that I do not want to at all let alone repeat on anannual basis.  My questions are:
    What can be done to have my Time Capsule delete old filesas it is supposed to do, so it has memory available to allow my computers toback up? 
    Is this a software problem that can be fixed online or isdoes this require a mechanical fix of defective hardware?

    How much data is being backed-up from each Mac?  (see what's shown for Estimated size of full backup under the exclusions box in Time Machine Prefs > Options).
    Is there any other data on your Time Capsule, besides the backups?
    Most likely, there just isn't room.  Time Machine may be trying to do a very large (or full) backup of one or both Macs, and can't.  Since it won't ever delete the most recent backup, there has to be enough room for one full backup plus whatever it's trying to back up now, plus 20% (for workspace).

  • Windows task bar not appearing while in itunes full screen

    My Window 7 task bar does not appear while in itunes full screen after updating to itunes 10.5.  I checked that it functions correctly with all of my other programs and it used to work fine in previous versions of itunes.  It is frustrating when I am trying to check battery power, access my wi-fi hard drive, etc. I have been pressing the windows button to pull up the start menu then I can see whaat I need but this seems to be only a work around.  Is there some sort of a check box or something I may have missed in itunes? Does anyone else have this issue?

    If it worked OK in the test library give this a try:
    Starting over from scratch with new library
    Start over with a new library and import the Originals (iPhoto 09 and earlier) or the Masters (iPhoto 11) folder from your original library as follows:
    1. Open the library package like this.
    2. Launch iPhoto with the Option key held down and, when asked, select the option to create a new library.
    3. Drag the subfolders of the Originals (iPhoto 09 and earlier) or the Masters (iPhoto 11) folder from the open iPhoto Library package into the open iPhoto window a few at a time.
    This will create a new library with the same Events (but not necessarily the same Event names) as the original library but will not keep the metadata, albums, books slideshows and other projects.
    Note:  your current library will be left untouched for further attempts at a fix if so desired.

    Ok when you refer to "memory" that is the Random Access Memory which is temporary memory the processor (worker) uses to store stuff while it's using it. Power goes off whats in the memory is gone.
    Your storage drive is where data is pernamnetly stored if the power is on/off.
    So what you really mean to say is your storage drive is filled up and you need to make some room.
    You have a TimeMachine drive, what this does is makes a image of your internal storage drive as a backup method, it also allows some "back in time" restoration of your previous deleted files depending how much space is on that drive. The more space, the less data you have, the more days you can go back in time to retrieve something.
    Unfortunatly the TimeMachine drive is not a extra space storage drive, it automatically rotates what appears on your internal storage drive. So if you delete something from the internal drive, it eventually gets deleted from the TimeMachine drive.
    So you need to make some more room on your internal drive, this is rather easy, all you need is ANOTHER external drive and connect it to the Mac. Give it a name like ExtraStorage#1 and thenyou will have to decide which of your User files you really don't need on the internal drive.
    For instance the best choice would be to move some movies out of your Movies folder to another MoviesExtra folder on the ExtraStorage#1 drive.
    Movies take a LOT of drive space and you can always copy them on or off, or watch them from the ExtraStorage#1 drive as well. But if your going to do this a lot, you should consider getting a Firewire 800/400, USB 3,2,1 combination drive as Firewire 800 is fastest and decently priced (Thunderbolt is very high priced and overkill at this time)
    The other things like Documents are quite small, Pictures can take a lot of space if you have a lot, but if you need them on the internal drive then that's better. Music one tends to use a lot or manage playlists and such, but perhaps some music you may which to move off or "prune", I suggest always burning data DVD's of music especially for extra backups.
    Once you have freed some room on the internal drive, this liitle neat program will show you what is taking the largest amount of space on your internal drive.
    http://grandperspectiv.sourceforge.net/
    After a scan, right click on the big squares to "revel in Finder" to show you what's taking the largest amount of space, be warned it also opens up hidden system files and folders, which you won't be able to move. So concentrate on what's inthe Users folder.
    Likely if you have a lot of Movies this is the biggest culprit on most standard internal hard drives. Also if you have something in iTunes that's auto-downloading something like PodCasts and not deleting the older ones and you forget. So go there and fix things and that can free up drive space.
    If you bought a small SSD with your new Mac, then the price of that SSD has come back to haunt you with low storage space, you will have to think carefully what you can live without on the internal drive.
    Once you have slimmed things down, TimeMachine will update to reflect your slimmer internal drive. What this means is there is only one copy of your data on the ExtraStorage#1 drive.
    You need to maintain two copies of your data at all times on seperate hardware, so now you need ANOTHER storage drive (ExtraStorage#2) to copy everythinng of ExtraStorage#1, or else if you drop or have a mechanical problem with ES#1 all that data will be gone!

  • Why is firefox continuously connecting while on a web page? The wheel is spinning every 10 seconds or so. I reinstalled firefox so I need help.

    Firefox is continuously "connecting" while I am on the web. It does not matter what site I am on but it keeps connecting (wheel spinning) every 10 seconds or so. Like it is reloading the page. The page does not go away, but it is driving me crazy as it did not used to do this. I did download a free trial of WordPerfect, but it was not what I was looking for and deleted it. I also reinstalled Firefox, so I am not sure what is going on. Help Please! I have a Windows 7 Sony Vaio computer. I ran the virus check a couple of times and it came up okay.

    It is possible that your security software (firewall, anti-virus) blocks or restricts Firefox or the plugin-container process without informing you, possibly after detecting changes (update) to the Firefox program.
    Remove all rules for Firefox and the plugin-container from the permissions list in the firewall and let your firewall ask again for permission to get full unrestricted access to internet for Firefox and the plugin-container process and the updater process.

  • Out of memory is full error

    I am using SE to export 4 channels of 1M samples. It works OK on the first gourp of 5 but I got a "LabView memory is full" error while less than 1Gb of memory is alocated.
    VI "csd_subDataTypeAsyncInvokeC,nd.vi:1" was stopped at node "" At a call to "csd_mxwCopyStringToClipboard.vi:2"
    System is using 59% of 8GB. There should be plenty of ram for this. This was the 6th export. It acts l.ike the memory is not being released from the previous export. I closed signal express and reopened the project and exported the 6th file without any problems. I did another set off 11 with no errors.
    I installed 3.0 last Friday. This is the 3rd time this week to have this error.

    HI John,
    Sorry this took so long. I thought I had responded to this and was waiting for an answer... Looks like my response did not make it to the system.
    1. I am exporting to Excel 2007
    2. I had been able to export with no problem until I installed 3.0, 2.5.1 worked fine.
    3. "Can you upload a simplified version of your code so we can take a look at it?" No, there is no code. I recorded a sample, expand the log, right click on voltage, and export to Excel.
    4. I do not think this is a setup problem; it works fine more than 90% of the time. 3.0 has never given me a problem in the first 10 exports.  2.5.1 Never had this problem.
    5. With 2.5.1 an export of more than Excel's max rows gives a message that the rows past max rows would not be exported. 2,000,000 rows did not stop the export
    6. The error occurred when SE had less than 1 GB of memory allocated. I have never seen more than 1 GB allocated to SE.
    7. There were more than 5GB of memory free, most of which could have been allocated.
    8. I get the out of memory error almost every day.
    9 if you ask me to call next time I get the error it may never error again.
     Thank you,
    John

  • HT1399 Why cant I create a playlist for my music/song videos? Continuous play is also not possible in the video app on the phone!!!! previously, prior to IOS 6, it was possible to have both music videos & songs mixed in the same playlist in the music app

    Why cant I create a playlist for my music/song videos? Continuous play is also not possible in the video app on the phone!!!! previously, prior to IOS 6, it was possible to have both music videos & songs mixed in the same playlist in the music app

    I am back with an update. I turned off Match on both the ipad and the iphone 5. By doing so I was able to sync my Iphone and ipad to itunes and store the music on my devices rather than the slow streaming.  So far this has fixed my problems with the iphone I have all my music, playlist, most of the album art and so on.  But the ipad is a different story.  I have the music and artist but not one playlist  I am sure Apple will have an upgrade soon that will address these issues they are usually very good about this. 
    Now have any of you experienced another problem that has existed as long as I have used faces in Aperture.
    I have over 200 faces and they are organized a-z problem is I have this going on A-Z folowed by a few that start over A-Z followed by another few A-Z and again a 4th time A-Z.  Imagine how difficult it is while I am showing someone the great features of my iphone, ipad and imac.  Which I do talk highly of all the time.  But how do I explain that even though their name starts with a or b or what ever they are not important enough to me to be in the first list of A-Z or even the 2nd or 3rd list of A-Z someohow they are in the 4th section of the list!!!!
    I have managed to get the Imac to fix this but for some reason the IOS devices do not.   Any ideas?
    Thanks Al

  • How do you "pause" an open application, like Mac automatically does when the memory is full?

    How do you "pause" an open application, like Mac automatically does when the memory is full?
    I would like to do so proactively when I am not using a certain program but need to keep it open, and I want to free up computer resources.
    In other words, I want to keep a given program open, but stop it from "thinking".

    There is an application that I can only open a set number of times before it expires.  Every time the program closes, you get one less use out of it.  I want to use it as long as possible, so I thought I would just keep it open all the time.  However, it consistently turns on the fan on the computer, so I imagine it uses a lot of resources.  I got the idea after the Force Quit program "paused" it once after getting overloaded with all the apps I had open.  It stopped the fan, and I was able to open it and run it again later with no problems.  The tricky thing with trying to intentionally overload the system is that it's a hit or miss on which open program the OS will pause (to my knowledge).

  • How to create a temp table in the memory, not in disk?

    in sql server, you can create a temp table in the memory instead of disk,
    then you can do the insert, delete,update and select on it.
    after finishing, just release it.
    in Oracle,
    I am wonderfing how to create a temp table in the memory, not in disk?
    thanks,

    Thanks for rectifying me Howard.
    I just read your full article on this too and its very well explained here:
    http://www.dizwell.com/prod/node/357
    Few lines from your article
    It is true, of course, that since Version 8.0 Oracle has provided the ability to create a Keep Pool in the Buffer Cache, which certainly sounds like it can do the job... especially since that word 'keep' is used again. But a keep pool is merely a segregated part of the buffer cache, into which you direct blocks from particular tables (by creating them, or altering them, with the BUFFER POOL KEEP clause). So you can tuck the blocks from such tables out of the way, into their own part of the buffer cache... but that is not the same thing as guaranteeing they'll stay there. If you over-populate the Keep Pool, then its LRU mechanism will kick in and age its contents out just as efficiently as an unsegregated buffer cache would.
    Functionally, therefore, there can be no guarantees. The best you can do is create a sufficiently large Keep Pool, and then choose the tables that will use it with care such that they don’t swamp themselves, and start causing each other to age out back to disk.
    Thanks and Regards
