Failure Message: Not enough RAM

straighten tool with content aware fill on an image (*.jpg) with ~7MB is not working --> Failure message ..... not enough RAM..
Installed RAM is 4 GB --> 1.5 GB reserved for PSE and more than 500GB available and activated in HD as workingvolume ... does anyone has an idea what to change??

You might try something like this:
1. First make sure you photo is a Layer and not just a Background Layer.
2. Use the Straighten Tool with Autofill edges unchecked
3. Ctrl click on the thumbnail in the layers panel to load the selection of photo
4. Select>Inverse
5. Select>Modify>Expand and enter a value between 5 px and 20 px
(the amount depends of the size of the photo)
6. Edit>Fill Selection>Content Aware
7. Select>Deselect
Honestly though, a 32 bit operating system just can't provide the resources for the optimum operation of photoshop elements 13, especially for
things like content aware fill that really don't use virtual memory , but rely on having the actual ram needed available.
A 64 bit operating system with at least 8 gb of ram performs so much better with photoshop elements 13, since
pse 13 is an 64 bit program on 64 bit operating systems and can use many more times the 1.7 gb of ram a 32 bit operating system is limited to.

You should look at the Windows Event Log for errors / reasons.
Probably (this is a guess), you ran out of space for the Paging file.

Before you try to secure your wireless network, you need to Hardwired your computer to the Router and check if the Ethernet Adapter on your Hardiwred computer is Active.
Now login to the Router setup page and try to make the changes on your Router, i think you should be able to make the changes on your Router.

Message- Not enough RAM to open Classic

For many months we have successfully opened Classic (set for auto open on booting OSX 10.4.7).
Suddenly we get an message asking if we want to continue opening Classic with insufficient RAM (needs at least 128 megs).
But we have 768 megs of installed SDRAM, just as in the past.
Computer is Dual 800MHz Power PC G4 (OS 9.2.2 and OX 10.4.7)
768 Megs SDRAM
80 gig HD
Activity monitor shows about 400 megs of unused SDRAM when we get the insufficient RAM message while attempting to open Classic.
Can't get Classic even starting to boot.
Any help will be appreciated.
Thanks,

Tom: See whether this excerpt from Mac Help sheds any light on your problem:
Adjusting the memory allocation for the Classic environment
Some Mac OS 9 applications make use of "temporary memory" on your hard disk in order to work faster. When you start the Classic environment, Mac OS X sets aside a temporary memory area for the use of Mac OS 9 applications. The default size of the temporary memory area is about 128 MB (less on computers with less than 128 MB of RAM). Some applications may need more than the default amount of temporary memory.
On the other hand, increasing the size of temporary memory decreases the amount of memory that's available for applications. Some Mac OS 9 applications work best if the temporary memory size is reduced to free up more memory for the application.
If you know that your application needs more than the default amount of temporary memory, or more application memory, you can change the temporary memory size in Classic preferences.
Choose Apple menu > System Preferences and click Classic.
Hold down the Option key, and then click Memory/Versions.
Click the Adjust Memory button.
Drag the memory allocation slider to the right to increase the size of temporary memory or drag it to the left to decrease it.
You can adjust the temporary memory allocation from about 48 MB to about 512 MB.
To restore the default size of the temporary memory, click Default.
Click Apply.
If the Classic environment is running, you must stop it and restart it for this setting to take effect.
IMPORTANT: Finding the optimum ratio of temporary memory and application memory can be tricky because there are many factors that affect it. It's a good idea not to change the temporary memory size unless you are confident you need to.
If you find that the temporary memory for Classic on your computer has been set to less than 128MB, that may explain the none-too-helpful error message you've been seeing when you start Classic. Perhaps resetting it to 128MB will put an end to them.

Illustrator can't open my saved file because there is not enough RAM. Can someone help me?

I was working all last night on artwork using Illustrator and now I cannot get it to open. The message reads that there is not enough RAM. This is after a long pause of waiting for illustrator to read the file. The file is 37 MB large, so it doesn't seem that daunting for my MacBook Pro with 8 GB of RAM. Any thoughts? Other files open with no problem.
After I hit ok on the message (Not enough RAM), it seems to be trying to work on something in the Illustrator file and then repeats saying there is not enough RAM.
Any help is greatly appreciated.

Thanks, there was a message on my file that suggested I save it with the PDF compatibility, but I am not able to do that till I get in. I am at the Apple store now to see if they can help me out. It would be sad to lose all that inspiration I put into my artwork.
Thanks for your help, I will need to be careful how much I load on one Illustrator file in the future.

Not enough RAM in Photoshop CC

Hi There,
I'm using the trial version as I am very keen to subscribe but I keep getting the error message not enough RAM :-(
Any solutions would be very much appreciated.

Are you using the 64 bit version? If your conputer has a 64 bit OS, then you should have both 32 and 64 bit versions of PS installed. The 32bit version can only acces 2.5 Gb RAM. 64 bit as much as you can fit to your main board

Photoshop CS2 Not Enough RAM error message (wrong forum)

For some strange reason, my copy of Photoshop CS2 (macintosh) has started giving me an error message after program start up: could not complete your request because there is not enough RAM. I don't have to do anything. This message pops up about 1 minute after I start the program. The program works fine. I just close the window and go on. I haven't installed any new plug ins or changes to my prefs or hardware configuration. This just started for no apparent reason. It doesnt't refuse to work, it's just annoying. I've tried deleting the Photoshop prefs file and reinstalling the program from the master disc. Didn't help. I'm running OS 10.4.2 on a dual 1.8 gz processor mac with 4 gigs of RAM; Photoshop set to retain 60% of that. Anyone with any ideas about this, or should I just quit whining and go back to work...

Why doesn't my program open? Error message states "not enough RAM" but I have 5 GB avail

I have Elements 2.0. Have been using it on 3 computers. Suddenly this laptop won't even open the program. Error message states "not enough RAM" but I have 5 GB available. How can I fix this. No problem on other computers with same Windows 7, Elements 2.0. This laptop is an HP. Others are Toshiba & Dell.

Even if you have 5GB of RAM, PSE can't make use of all of it because it is likely to be a 32 bit program (if not 16 bit). PSE2 is very old made for Windows 2000 or Windows 98 but this was all before my time so my facts must be wrong here.
I am amazed that you managed to install it on Windows 7 in the first place.

Not enough RAM - CS2

Hi!
To begin I will say that we have been using Photoshop CS 2 in our company for about two years without a problem. The problems started last friday. I have not changed any settings, installed any plugins etc. before these problems started. Neither has the computer hardware changed.
Photoshop starts nicely. You can use it without a problem for a while, until suddenly it says (depending on the action) "Not enough RAM". After that I can't save, but I can continue editing as if nothing had happened. Normally Photshop takes roughly 1gt of RAM when idle, but the allocated memory just keeps on growing the further I go with my photoshopping. After a while the Photoshop memory count rises to about 2gt. I have 3gt of RAM and there's always about 2gt not in use when Photoshop is inactive.
Sometimes when i launch Photoshop my whole computer crashes. No blue screens of death or anything, just a simple reset. This also occured while i was starting the uninstallation program.
The best way to see this problem is with the Text tool. Creating a text layer takes much more longer than it used to. Copy-pasting is just something I can't do because it takes forever.
I have read the FAQ, adjusted history and cache settings to small, scratch disks (1st startup, 2nd another partition), reseted my preferences and ultimately reinstalled Photoshop. My Photoshop is up-to-date. I have tried running Photoshop on Windows 98 compatibility setting. My computer temperatures are good. I have also defragmented and ran memtests.
Thank you for your help, it's really hard to get jobs done right now. I will gladly answer your questions.

Hi, same problem here -
I have been using CS2 for 4 years, and I keep getting the same message regarding not enough RAM over and over again during the years. It's not happenig all the time - it seems to pop up every two or three months. Usually I don't get the message, but sometimes, when I work on files with a lot of text - such as broshures or flyers, or menu pages - it's almost impossible to work.
It takes forever to initialise the text engine, sometimes I get the message "something prevented the text engine from being initialised".
I know I will get the message for not enough RAM when all the text disappears whie I am typing and when I click anything after that that annoying message pops up.
I don't know waht to do - I save every 2-3 minutes, because I don't know when it will surprise me. It's really frustrating- I broke two keyboard while "dealing" with the problem.
My PC specs are:
AMD Athlon 2800+
1,8 GHz, 2 Gb RAM
I tired allocating 70 % of my RAM to Photoshop, then I changed it to 50 %, then I read somewhere that it is good to be 30 % - did that, too.
I have only one partition on my hard drive,one physical drive; first scratch disk - startup, second - C:/
Any ideas?

Not enough ram when there is

I'm trying to open a small .pdf file
Photoshop is telling me it wont open, that there is not enough ram.
It's not on all files, I tried re-saving the file it is messing up on but it still does it.
I'm running the newest macbook pro with 16g ram
300gig of space is available.
I tried rebooting the computer.

What exactly is the error message that comes up? Is it something like - "Not enough disk space to open"
The actual error message is really helpful in questions like this

PS CC 2014 requires less than what my laptop is capable of, but still says "not enough ram". Help?

I have an Acer Aspire with Windows 7. I downloaded Photoshop CC 2014, which said it's requirements were less than what my laptop has, plus I upgraded the ram to 8 already. If I go to lighting, it opens, stalls, then says not enough ram, and another message about making sure things are enabled, etc etc, which I have already done. What do I do?

It says ram on one message, and talks about graphics card on another. The first message that pops up says the 3D feature require that "use graphics processor is enabled in the performance preferences. Your video card must meet the minimum requirement and you may need to check that your driver is working correctly. Once that message is closed the next message that pops up says unable to perform function you do not have enough RAM.

Photoshop CS4 - Not enough RAM to open a file???

I get this wonderful "Not Enough RAM" message, while trying to open a big TIF file (over 100 Mb). Till now it happened with big files that were saved in Windows. All other programs, including Photoshop CS3 opens the files just great. Resaving files in any other app helps, but this thing is a joke - I'm thinking going back to CS3... : (
Thanks.

According to many different discussions, nobody, even Apple, can really tell If it is necessary to defragment OS X drives,
This is not about defragmenting the drive. I am attempting to make you aware that you will always have fragmentation on your drive in a one-drive laptop, no matter what you do.
Photoshop needs to find a single, contiguous, non-fragmented chunk of drive space to create the scratch disk. On a one-drive machine you will never, ever know exactly what the largest, unfragmented chunk of drive space you have at any given instant is, but you can bet your life on the fact that it will be a lot less than the total amount the Finder shows you.
As I just typed, your drive will inevitably be fragmented even before you boot up, and the swap files of the OS will further fragmented once it's running.
You can use an external drive for scratch, just make sure it's formatted as Mac HFS+ Extended and NOT case-sensitive. Do a Get Info (Command I) on the icon of the external hard drive in the Finder and check "Ignore Ownership of this Drive" if necessary.
Photoshop creates the scratch drive the instant you go to open an existing file or create a new one, setting its size on assumptions it makes based on your workflow history, not just the size of the file you're opening. Thus, it is possible that the scratch disk sizes for CS3 and for CS4 will be different on your machine. This will be the case if you have worked on bigger files or with more layers. etc, on one version than on the other one, even for the very same file. The difference could be dramatic.

Not enough Ram memory in photoshop -please help

Hi
When I try to save any of my work in photoshop as a jpeg (not large files-even only 5Mb size ones) it comes up with an error message saying not enough Ram to save. IM using windows xp, I have 2.5Gigs of ram, 100Gigs free space on C drive and 100gigs free space on my other drive (J:). I have checked the scratch disk prefernce and allocated 65% of ram to memory. I have also made my J: drive the number one scratch disk and C:drive as number 2. I have defragged my computer, and made sure no other programs ar running at the same time when im using photoshop. i have checked for viruses and spyware...and it still wont save....can someone please help i dont no what else to so?

What is a "scratch drive"?
How do I make sure there are not large temp files on it?
How do I make sure the RAM allocated to PS in PS Preferneces is not to high?
A "scratch drive" is one of your hard drives (C:\ if you only have one) that PS uses to write to as an extension of normal memory. It is needed even if you have lots of RAM.
In PS, if you go to Edit > Preferences > Performance, you will see not only the amount of RAM allocated to PS (which should be in the recommended "Ideal" range) but also which scratch disks are nominated. With more than one hard drive, it is best not to have the system disk as scratch.
With PS closed, you can then look in Windows Explorer to check if there are any large temp files left on that drive and delete them.

Problem with printing - could not print because not enough RAM CS5

I am using Photoshop CS5 on a new iMac running OSX 10.9.4. Each time I try to print from Photoshop I get a message saying 'Could not print because there is not enough RAM'. There is plenty of RAM, and the message appears even if I try to print an image a mere 100KB! With my previous iMac I could print without any problems. Any ideas how to put this right? Thanks

Do you know exactly how much RAM Photoshop needs for printing? Just an idea: the RAM assigned to Photoshop is limited in the preferences. In case this setting has been changed to a small value, you might not realise it when working with images, but when doing extra stuff. Then, what about cache folders and probably limited space for cache folder? I don't know OS X. Maybe you try a different cache folder location.

Message "not enough memory on start up disc" on MacBook pro

My 2 year old MacBook displays a message "not enough memory on start up disk".

Even though Memory = RAM, some times you get this message if your Hard Drive is to full.
You need at least 10 -15% free space on the Hard drive to operate.
