How can I increase amount of RAM as needed for Photoshop CS6?

I cannot save any of my work as I am informed I do not have enough Ram available. What are my options please?

You didn't say if your current system capability is 32- or 64-bit and how much RAM you have.  If you have fewer than 4 GB RAM you should get a quick boost by increasing it to 4 GB.  As others have written, you'll need 64-bit system to increase usable RAM to ore then 4G.  If you need to work within 4GB you may find some tips in Jeff Tranberry's "How to tune Photoshop CS6 for peak performance"  
http://blogs.adobe.com/crawlspace/2012/10/how-to-tune-photoshop-cs6-for-peak-performance.h tml
Scroll down to the section "Key steps to optimize Photoshop CS6 performance" then see if ideas discussed  from "How do I know if my system could benefit from more RAM?" through "11. Reduce patterns and brush tips" might help with your configuration and workflow.

  • How can I increase the storage capacity in Linux for installing Oracle 11g?

    Hi all,
    I've been searching in Internet information about how to increase the storage capacity of a Linux machine, so that it can help me with my problem without success. I tried to execute some command lines encountered in some tips in forums, but no one works.
    I want to install an Oracle 11g database, which needs 4 GB minimal for the installation. I can not continue with the installation because of this problem.
    I use a VMWare virtual machine, which I increased over its settings to 160 GB, but not its file systems or whatever in the machine.
    I did this:
    [root@localhost ~]# df -h
    Filesystem Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on
    /dev/sda3 18G 15G 1.9G 89% /
    /dev/sda1 190M 12M 169M 7% /boot
    none 506M 0 506M 0% /dev/shm
    /dev/hdc 699M 0 699M 100% /media/cdrom
    As far I understand the bigger storage capacity is used by the file system /dev/sda3. But what about the rest, I mean the 140 GB?. I've already increased the storage capacity over the settings. How can I tell the machine "please use the remaining 140 GB for the installation of the Oracle DB and other needed installations?.
    How can I increase here what?. Disk? File system? Volume Group? It can not be so difficult, can it?
    There are no volume groups in the machine:
    +[root@localhost /]# vgdisplay+
    +No volume groups found+
    Linux is too complicated. Unfortunately I have to do that in Linux :-(
    Can someone help me? I sit here since long hours without finding a solution :-(

    thanks for your answers.
    To Dude:
    You can address the problem in a number of different ways, but please post your version of Linux and provide more information about your current partitions
    The Version of Linux is Linux Red Hat Enterprise 5.
    Open Logical Volume Management from the System Administration menu.
    Select your volume from the logical view, edit properties and then use the slider to set your volume size, or click "remaining" to extend your partition.
    I've already opened the LVM from the System Administration menu, but there is no possibility to see the volume groups, because there is no one. There is no tabs like Volume Groups or something like that...
    I would try the procedure described above your answer and write you again. I hope it works...I will write you back in a few minutes...

  • How can i change the color of pen tool in photoshop cs6?

    I want to change the color vector of pen tool in photoshop cs6?

    Just to make sure we're communicating properly...
    Is it that while creating a path you want the thin lines, handles, etc. to be a different color?
    Or is it that after you create your path you want to stroke it with a color?  It IS possible to stroke a path, and even to have an automatic Layer Stroke on a path that's any size/color shape you want.  Example:

  • How can I increase the font size of just one paragraph?

    I am using Dreamweaver CS4. I want to increase the font size and style of just one paragraph, but the "page properties" changes the font size for the whole page. In this regard: how can I increase the font size (and style) for just one word. Thank you, Mr. Monroe

    How do I get to “CSS Properties”? Do I click on Window > CSS Styles?
    When I click on Window > CSS Styles, I do not see the text “Custom Class.”
    I tried inserting (manually) the HTML code you suggested for the paragraph I want to change and nothing happened. I tried [<span class=”16px”>text came in here</span)]
    I read in a tutorial that after you create a CSS style sheet, all you have to do is select the text you want to apply it to and then attach the style sheet to that text. I can imagine, however, that there are some special steps that one has to perform in order to do this.
    Thanks for your help.

  • Hi how can i increase my parameter values in my system

    Dear Experts ,
    here my functional consultants gets below shotdump and how can i solve that an error
    Runtime Errors         TSV_TNEW_BLOCKS_NO_ROLL_MEMORY
    Short text
        No roll storage space of length 1802248 available for internal storage.
    hat can you do?
       Try to find out (e.g. by targetted data selection) whether the
       transaction will run with less main memory.
       If there is a temporary bottleneck, execute the transaction again.
       If the error persists, ask your system administrator to check the
       following profile parameters:
       o  ztta/roll_area            (1.000.000 - 15.000.000)
              Classic roll area per user and internal mode
              usual amount of roll area per user and internal mode
       o  ztta/roll_extension       (10.000.000 - 500.000.000)
              Amount of memory per user in extended memory (EM)
       o  abap/heap_area_total      (100.000.000 - 1.500.000.000)
              Amount of memory (malloc) for all users of an application
              server. If several background processes are running on
              one server, temporary bottlenecks may occur.
              Of course, the amount of memory (in bytes) must also be
              available on the machine (main memory or file system swap).
              Caution:
              The operating system must be set up so that there is also
              enough memory for each process. Usually, the maximum address
              space is too small.
              Ask your hardware manufacturer or your competence center
              about this.
              In this case, consult your hardware vendor
       abap/heap_area_dia:        (10.000.000 - 1.000.000.000)
              Restriction of memory allocated to the heap with malloc
              for each dialog process.
       Parameters for background processes:
       abap/heap_area_nondia:        (10.000.000 - 1.000.000.000)
              Restriction of memory allocated to the heap with malloc
              for each background process.
       Other memory-relevant parameters are:
       em/initial_size_MB:         (35-1200)
              Extended memory area from which all users of an
              application server can satisfy their memory requirement.
       Note which actions and input led to the error.
       For further help in handling the problem, contact your SAP administrator
       You can use the ABAP dump analysis transaction ST22 to view and manage
       termination messages, in particular for long term reference.

    One possible solution would be to organise your inbox into folders.
    Its never relly good on any system to have one folder that has everything in it.
    Try going to you web gui for that mail account and organise your folders and move mails from your inbox into corresponding folders for better organisation.
    Several folders containing the same amount of one folder will usually load a little quicker as the folder may not be accessed to download its content unless veiwed.
    So having 10 folders with organised content, and you inbox as an area thats to hold only new emails would work much much quicker with imap.
    Most imap servers will only update the contents of a folder when its veiwed.
