Has anyone experience iMac memory issues with One Drive (previously Sky Drive) - uses 5GB of my 8GB memory!

I recently started experiencing memory issues with my iMac due to One Drive using up to 5GB of my iMac memory (total of 8GB). Every time I start up my iMac Activity Monitor shows One Drive uses around 4-5Gb of the internal memory for no reason. Previously Onde Drive seemed to work fine, it's only since about 2 weeks I notice this. It's really annoying as the iMac freezes up regulalrly and I need One Drive to synchronise my files across different devices.
Has anyone experienced this too and are there any known fixes?

Yes this is happening to me too, since the last upgrade. Eventually MacOS starts insisting I "Force Quit" all my applications as I have run out of application memory.
OneDrive doesn't appear in that list because it's not an application... but Activity Monotor clearly shows it's the culprit, taking up 5GB+ of RAM.
I've raised the issue on Microsoft's forums:

  • Has anyone had app update issues with iOS 8.1?

    I'm running iOS 8.1 on a iPhone 6+.  If I try to update an app from the app store without being logged in, it will hang the process and the update will fail.
    Previously, with my iPhone 4 and iOS 7.1.2 the app store would ask me to log in when an app update was attempted without being logged in.
    The work around until apple fixes this bug is to ensure you are logged in BEFORE attempting an app update.  An honest techie at the local apple store admitted this is a bug (one of many) in iOS 8.1.  Has anyone else had this issue with iOS 8.1

    Nope, I'm able to update an app in iOS 8.1, even if I'm not first logged into the iTunes & App Store in Settings.  It prompts me to update the app, then I sign in with my password.
    Do you have Touch ID enabled for App Store or not?

  • TS1398 Has anyone had WiFi connectivity issues with their iPhone 5 after accepting the latest IOS 8.0.2?

    Has anyone had WiFi connectivity issues at home with their iPhone 5 after accepting the recent IOS 8.0.2 update?

    Yes, despite being it an iPhone5 (8.0.2) attempting to connect to an Airport Express.
    In my case the iPhone "connects" to Airport Express 2nd generation, but no Internet packages are available; Airport Utility shows the Airport Express as not connected to the Internet; but the iMac, MBP, Motorola phone, Samsung Smart TV and HP printer connect without any trouble.
    The actual issue is the DHCP :
    sometimes the iPhone gets none, and
    when an address is assigned it just doesn't work,
    even renewing the address won't work all the times,
    switching off and on the WiFi won't work all the times neither,
    going on Airplane mode, then back won't work all the times.
    Solutions attempted and failed:
    Reseting and reconfiguring Airport Express;
    Reseting iPhone;
    Switching off and on the iPhone;
    Setup the DHCP renewal for every 5 days;
    Meditation and stark visualisation;
    Other possible patch not yet attempted : setting fixed IP addresses
    All suggestions received resemble Windows' "Plug & Pray"
    I gave up after reading several notes around the WWW complaining about it.
    Last credible suggestion : wait for 8.0.3 or 8.1, whichever fixes the issue first.

  • Does anyone else (or has anyone else) had an issue with their wireless keyboard connecting via the Bluetooth?

    The first day I got it, it was fine. Then when I woke up the next day which was less than 12 hours after hooking it up, it wouldn't connect..it let me type a couple of characters to my password, but then literally stopped. My trackpad has yet to have any issues whatsoever. Even during the keyboard malfunctioning it's been fine. In order to get the keyboard to work, I have to log into the guest account, let it be discovered, then pair it. It as now happened on 4 different days, more times than that, though. I've only had it for just over a week. I don't think there's a problem with the computer just because the trackpad is fine. The keyboard blinks that little green light when it's having this issue, too. As you know, it's normally off. Today I tried to log in for the first time and it did the same thing as the first day. It let me type a few characters, then stopped and wouldn't connect. This time, though, when I went into the guest account to let it be discovered it wouldn't let me type the numeric code to pair it. I had to hold down my power button to restart it because I was logged in on another user and it wouldn't let me restart it the normal way without typing the admin username/password...which I obviously couldn't do seeing as how I didn't have a keyboard. Does anyone else think this is a faulty keyboard I need to return? Or is this unfortunately how it works...or what? Help please...
    I was at the Apple Store that week 5 times for a messed up phone that they replaced with a total of 4 replacement phones because of different issues the ones they gave me had and driving there that much almost made me say screw it to the iPhone...now I buy this very expensive iMac spending 2 grand and this happens....I'm so mad I am thinking of just returning it and giving up on Apple altogether which Idon't WANT to do...but with all I've dealt with in a 2 week period with the iPhone and now this...oh and I bought a $100 cell phone case I had to replace because it wasn't working correctly. So you see, I am beyond frustartee over Apple.....if anyone could help I'd greatly appreciate it. With all of my problems I've had, you'd think they want to do more than apologize for my inconvenience. Even the techs that helped me said it was ridiculous I've had so many issues and now I'm just adding to the list..

    Try this:
    Go to System Preferences - Bluetooth. Delete the keyboard from the list of devices by pressing the "-" button. Take the batteries out of the keyboard and reinsert them. In Bluetooth Preferences press the '+" button to add the new device. If the keyboard begins to pair, click the word "pair" and type in the passcode. Press return. The keyboard is now paired.
    If the mouse is not pairing, try this: shut down the computer completely, unplug any USB mice, then turn off the power to the bluetooth mouse.  ONce the computer starts up again, wait for the pop-up looking for a mouse.  Turn on the power to the bluetooth mouse.  It should work normally now.

  • Has anyone fixed the ringer issue with 4s?

    I have tried the alcohol, the compressed air to clean the connection, the verification that the ringer tone is still available... anyone?

    Sorry to hear that you have crashing issues with Safari. Most people don't.
    If your Safari keeps crashing, or if you are updating Safari (or just have):
    Input Managers and other plug-ins from third parties can do as much harm as good. They use a security loophole to reach right into your applications' code and change that code as the application starts up. If you have installed 10.4.11 and Safari is crashing, the very first thing to do is clear out your InputManagers folders (both in your own Library and in the top-level Library), log out and log back in, and try again.
    So, disable all third party add-ons before updating Safari, as they may not have been updated yet for the new version. Add them back one by one. If something goes awry, remove it again and check on the software manufacturer's website for news of an update to match your version of Safari. Remember: Tiger up to 10.4.10 used Safari 2.0.4 or, if you downloaded it, Safari 3.0.3 beta. Safari 10.4.11 uses Safari 3.0.4 which is not a beta. If Safari 3.0.4 on 10.4.11 is not the fastest browser you have ever used, then something is wrong!
    (Trying to revert to Safari 2 when running 10.4.11 can have repercussions, as Safari 3.0.4 uses a completely different webkit on which other applications like iChat, Mail, Dashboard widgets etc also rely.)
    Most errors reported here after an update are due to an unrepaired or undetected inherent fault in the system, and/or a third party ad-on. Add-on that have been frequently mentioned here, among others, for causing such problems are Piclens, Saft, AcidSearch and Pithhelmet. If you have them, trash them and go the developer's sites to see if new versions are available for Safari 3.0.4.
    You should also ensure, if you are running Tiger 10.4.11, that you have downloaded and installed the correct version for your Mac of Security Update 2008-001.
    As Leopard also uses Safari 3.0.4, much of the above may well also apply to Leopard, but is not guaranteed.

  • Has anyone else had any issues with their iPhone 5

    I had a problem with Siri this weekend.  Asked a question and got it answered, then asked another question and it was just "thinking" and didn't answer.  This morning I connected to iTunes and the screen went black except for time, service bar.  I had to shut it down and turn it back on.  And is it just me, or does the battery run down A LOT faster??

    Everyone else seems to be using their iPhone 5 devices trouble free   No, but seriously...the issue with the fast draining battery is probably your push notifications or the known problem with excessive data network usage.  Make sure you adjust your app settings to reduce push notification usage, and monitor your data usage to see if your phone is secretly downloading tons of data.  People are describing gigs worth of data over a few days.
    WiFi also drains batteries pretty fast.  If you don't need it, turn it off.
    Sounds to me like Siri had a freakout that sapped the memory of the phone (some kind of memory leak/bad programming).  The restart probably stopped whatever was stuck in a loop.

  • Has anyone else seen these issues with 10.8 server?

    Just started a new 10.8 server (10.8.2 on a Xserve). I'm seeing 2 small but annoying issues with WGM.
    If I try to add a computer to a computer group:
    1. I don't see 10.7 or 10.8 Macs in the Bonjour list.(Using the ...) (Yes they are on the same subnet and yes I am also using a 10.8.2 client to run WGM)
    2. If I try to manually add the computer to Open Directory, I have to name them slightly differently than we did on 10.6 server. (xx1234 doesn't work, xx1234-567 does)
    Just small bugs or something else I am missing?

    After spending a decent amount of time with a certified Apple support company here is what we found:
    1. Both issues above are bugs. It is unclear wheather they are bugs in Server or WGM 10.8.
    2. We were able to do a workaround for the computer naming issue. However it isn't great.
    The server was both an OD Master AND bound to AD for user/user group authentication.
    However, the server was looking at the AD computer OU (where the Mac objects are put when clients are bound to AD) and considering those computers to be in OD. Either un-binding or taking AD out of the search policy solved that issue.
    But now none of the AD user/user group stuff works.
    So, that is where we stand so far.

  • Has anyone else had an issue with Suspension of devices vs Canceling of devices?

    Back in July I contacted customer service about canceling our service on our mobile hot spot (jetpack). The customer service representative told me to "go online and suspend the service, it will eventually cancel out". So that is what I did. Today I received a bill with $71.05 in charges for the "canceled" jetpack. I called into customer service, was transferred to Lisa, the customer service supervisor for the midwest call center and was told basically sorry, but we can't credit your account. We provided the service even though you did not use the service. I stated that I received no notification that service would resume and thought that the line would "cancel out" as I was told by the customer service representative back in July. So I asked to speak to Lisa's supervisor, she doesn't have one...really??? she answers to no one??? I inquire about cancelling my account all together effective immediately, and she could not tell me what the total charges would be...and she's the supervisor who answers to no one??? No wonder this company is going downhill....All I want is the $71.05 credited to my account since I was given misinformation. Am I asking too much????

    How would pulling a taped conversation of the customer consenting to suspend vs disconnect help them get their way at all? At some point a person has to accept personal responsibility for their choices. If he wanted it disconnected, he should have declined going online to suspend and had it disconnected.

  • Has anyone else noticed an issue with the new mail icon on the lock screen?

    After updating to iOS 8 there is a new mail icon on the lock screen. When I slide it up I get this message:
    "Failed to continue activity- the connection to your other device may have been interrupted- Please try again"
    After trying again and again I get the same message and I do not have the "other device" that it mentions. I'm not sure what is going on, does anyone have any ideas?

    Nope, have not seen this issue or have this issue myself.  Try going into Settings and toggling off that email account, toggle back on and then send a test email to yourself.  If it still persists, delete the email account and re-add and try again.

    Dear All Has anyone found a break through with the issue of Connect to itunes to use push notifications

    Did you get any help on this? From what I can see from surfing this site, it's a BUG that no one has offered a solution to. It sometimes happens after a 'reset' and going to ITunes does not offer a way to 'set up push notifications'.
