Imac is using all 512mb of ram.

Hello, I have the Intel Imac 17 inch with 512 mb of ram. Ive had it for about 6-7 months now with no problems whatsoever. Today I was surfing the web looking for themes and such to customize my mac. When I skinned Itunes and restarted it, something strange occured. I recieved a message that said "The iTunes application could not be opened. There is not enough memory available." I thought to myself, thats weird, normally theres never more then half used up. So I opened Activity Monitor and these were the results: Wired: 79.12mb, Active: 270.61mb, Inactive: 152.04mb, Used: 500.41mb, and Free: 14.92mb. I have never experienced this before and am extremely worried that my ram is messed up. The results taken by Activity Monitor were determined by itself and Safari being opened. Please reply quickly, I can not do anything right now.

Thank you very much for replying so quickly. In this case it was the skin, I had to remove the skin and completely reinstall iTunes. My ram usage is back to where it should be. Although I agree that I need to upgrade ram I will not. I am buying the new Intel core 2 duo 24 inch Imac soon so I just upgrade when I get it. The only thin that I don't get is that peoples automatic response is to upgrade the ram. Well last night when I was having the issue I got frustrated and wanted to test the computers limits. I clicked on every app in the Dock (except iTunes) and with about 30 seconds of lag eevrything opened and ran. Of course it was slower then usual, but 512 mb can handle enough for the average user. I was just curious why everyones response is to upgrade ram.

HELP: Premiere Pro CC not using all CPU and RAM during rendering and export

Hello,
I am using Premiere Pro CC on a Windows 7. My timeline is quite simple with two videos, one with the movie (mpeg) and the other with the subtitles (avi).
When I render the sequence in PP or export, the rendering time is way too slow and it only uses around 15-20% of the CPU and 3 GB of RAM.
My hardware config is :
- CPU : i7-4770k 3.50Ghz
- RAM : 8 GB
- Disk : 2 x 3 TB SATA (no raid)
RAM is not the bottleneck, neither the disk access.
I have tried rendering and exporting the same project on an iMac (with an i5 2.7 Ghz and 4 GB RAM and only 1 disk) and the result is 4x faster !!!
The CPU usage is close to 100% as well as RAM usage.
So how come PP uses all resources availble on an iMac and not on a Windows 7 ?
Is there any known bug or software bottleneck on Windows 7 ?
My machine is brand new and nothing much installed besides Adobe products.
Any help is very much appreciated.
Thanks,

I just rendered out a a 2 minute sequence with about 100 clips in it and Colorista effects on everything to the Vimeo 1080 H264 preset. It took about 5 minutes to render straight from Premiere, it used all the recourses it could, my CPU was running at near %100, same with my ram and GPU, I was happy.
Then I did another render with Red Giant Denoiser and it now wants to take 30 mins and it is only using about %20 of the recourses available. My problem isn't that its taking longer with Denoiser but that its not using all of my computers CPU and GPU.
Im rendering at maximum render quality and bit dept to H264 (Im happy to wait the extra time), if I try to use VRB 2 it encodes 1 pass at a time and wants to take up to 40 minutes.
I would appreciate some advice on this.

Why isn't my iMac using all of my RAM

Hi,
I've recently upgraded the RAM in my iMac (System details below) from 4GB to 12GB as it was running a little slow, I have found this has made no difference and at times seems even slower.
I was doing some work with video files and was converting a video using MPEG Streamclip and so this would be quite a memory intensive task. As it was progressing very slowly I checked my Activity Monitor and it was only using 4.49GB of the memory overall and of that only 97MB seemed to be dedicated to the MPEG Streamclip task.
Does anyone know why the system isn't using the rest of the RAM that is installed?
The highest usage process is 'kernal_task' with 838.9MB but I don't know what that is, There are a lot of items in the process list but I don't know how to remove them or even if I can or should remove them?
Any help would be greatly appreciated
Thanks
Dan

Safari is using all my free Ram and resources

Ever since Safari 5.1 and the emergance of "Safari Web Content" safari now takes sometimes up to 2GB of Ram! Thats more than every other program running combined! I am then left with ~10-50 mb of ram to share with Dreamweaver Photoshop and several other programs.
Once it bogs down all my resources it will require me to reload all my pages before I can use any of my pages. Once it returns its still using just about as much resources.
-First of all it is not my extenstions or plug-ins, (I never had any till just recently)
-I am running safari on just a few windows on several desktops.
-I almost never experience this amount of ram usage before 5.1
I have seen others experience this and the only viable solution seems to be "just close down safari and open it back up"
I am developing for the web and keep several pages open on multiple desktops for different reasons, when I close down Safari all my windows from all my other desktops (at least now safari saves my old windows) and opens them all on one desktop and taking sometimes nearly a minute to do so.
It has been two versions now since 5.1 (5.1.1, 5.1.2) and little has been done in regards to (in my opinion) this very serious issue. (there might have been slight decreases in ram usage but if so I dont really notice it)
What can I do (or what is being done) to limit the amount of Ram consumption Safari is allowed to take (adobe programs have this option)

I have the same issue. I see that no one has added to this since March. Does that mean it was address somewhere else? I understand the app is designed to use as much memory as it can grab to make it run better, but when it grabs so much that you start virtual memory thrashing, that's a problem. I have a Mac Mini with 2GB that was barely functional when Safari was running. I just upgraded to 8GB, and it's much better, but Safari still gladly takes half of that memory. I don't see how clearing the cache or history would have anything to do with RAM utilization. I agree this is a real problem.

Photoshop Using All RAM And Making 15gb TEMP Files-HELP!?

Hey Guys,
Having a massive issue with Photoshop CC right now and need help asap!
I was recently working a on a really big PSB file (about 6gb or so) I finished the job, saved it, sent it to client, all went nicely. However now when I open Photoshop for whatever reason it instantly uses all of my RAM, and creates a huge 15gb RandomPrice TEMP file on my SSD scratch disk (as shown in the screenshot, excuse the crude snipping tool skills.) I have tried deleting the TEMP file, restarting my PC and opening PS again but it just starts making the file again, it has also drastically slowed down the time it takes to open PS which used to be about 2 seconds, and is now approximately 20 seconds. I'm pretty well clueless what to do here so throw some suggestion my way guys! EDIT: This temp file always reverts to the exact same size after deleting it, right down to the KB. I can sit in explorer refreshing it, watching the size of the temp file going up, and as soon as it reaches 15,276,080KB Photoshop opens up correctly.
Cheers,
Tom

The rule of thumb I follow to figure out scratch space says to figure on 50 to 100 times the size of your largest file ever multiplied by the number of files you have open. I have seen the scratch file exceed 800 GB once, an admittedly rare occurrence, but it often exceeds 200 GB when stitching large panoramas and the like.
As an example—and stressing that I'm aware that others have even more scratch space than I do—I keep two dedicated, physically separate hard drives as my primary and secondary Photoshop scratch disks and a lot of GB free on my boot drive for the OS. I also have 16 GB of RAM installed.
Additionally, if you only have a single HD, i.e. your boot drive, you'd need it to be large enough to accommodate both the swap files of the OS as well as Photoshop's scratch.

I am confused about how to manage photos between my iPhone, iMac and iPad. How do I avoid using all the storage pace on my various devices?

How do I manage photos between my ipad, iphone and imac without using all the storage on the various devices?

If enabled, iCloud Photo Stream ensures all new photos are sent to all your devices. Then you can simply add the ones you want to each one's Library, and delete any photos you don't want.
One technique is to designate one device as the "master" containing all your photos - probably your iMac, since it is likely to have the greatest available storage - and make sure you have a backup strategy for it. That way, any photos you choose to keep on your iPad and iPhone are redundant copies that can be deleted as you wish, or as required should you need to restore your iOS device. If your iMac breaks and its Library irretrievably lost, the importance of its backup becomes critical. Therefore, consider having more than one backup, and more than one geographical location for them.

Trustedinstaller using all my RAM

I've had a laptop and a PC were I have done a reinstall from a recovery partition.
On both the system when I'm updating them the trustedInstaller.exe process has been using all of the RAM, and resulting in low memory errors.
If i install the updates bit by bit it isn't so bad. but is i install say 130 the ram hits max around the 100th update. on the laptop I've just done the process had 3,800,000KB committed ram and was only working 50,000KB, the computer only has 4GB in it
so it just maxed out and the updates would take 10x longer than they normally do.

Kernel for i686 which uses all 4GB RAM?

I've got i686 (x86) version of Arch installed. How can I make it use all my 4GB RAM? It just sees 3,3GB now. I know it's possible to use more than 4GB on 32-bit with some tweaks etc (I'm using 8GB on RHEL i386 servers at work), but how do I make it so in Arch?
[joffer@armor ~]$ free

True Ibertus but not apparent from the post.
An added observation is that the added PAE requires ram for addressing so the full 4GB is not accessible, about 3.5GB is useable. Thusly, the added 1GB is actually only a half GB and requires the 64g highmem mod to the kernel..required for every new upgrade.

MBP not using all memory while rendering video

Hey,
When I do rendering in Adobe Premiere Por CS6, my Mac is not using all the available RAM: 2773 MB used....5416 MB free
Memory Pages:
                              1658 MB active....1099 MB wired
                              5420 MB inactive....11.2 MB free
it also says that:       3 swap files at peak usage
                               256 MB total swap space (20 MB used)
350 GB free storage space( total 750 GB)
I have a MBP (OS x Lion) late 2011 with i7 2.8 GHz and 8 GB RAM
Adobe Premiere Pro is set to use 6.5 GB of RAM but not even while working in the programme it has ever used that much of memory.
During rendering, it is the only app running, except for Google Chrome.
If this info is not enough, just ask what do you need to know...
PLEASE HELP, rendering takes forever.
Thanks,
kund

You never said what model Mac you have. Since this is the MacBook Pro forum, I assume you have some version of the MBP. 390% CPU would indicate CPU-boundedness for a quad-core CPU without active hyperthreading, or a dual-core CPU with hyperthreading active.
Given the high CPU usage and the low swap usage, it seems unlikely that memory usage is the problem, but I'm not a Premiere Pro user, so I couldn't guess what it.
You might try posting your question in an Adobe forum for Premiere Pro.

Safari uses all ram

A mid 2011 iMac, 8 GB of RAM. If Safari is opened, it eventually consumes all RAM available and exhausts app memory. I have completely wiped and reloaded, Tried a variety of OS versions, now 10.10, and no luck. I'm pasting an Etre report for reference. I did follow one support tip to kill off Safari WebDav as that was going crazy as well. Any help appreciated.

I just bought a new iMac and used the Migration Assistant to transfer my files. Initially, all was working, but now a week later, I get the message that the application manager is missing, and I cannot get Photoshop and InDesign to launch. For my personal use, I did not a need to join Creative Cloud. Have you any suggestions for a work-around?

Try to install Adobe application Manager from below link and check

Hi Michael,
I'm glad iTunes is working now! If you want to locate iTunes plug-ins on your computer, you can find them in the following locations (you may not have the iTunes Plug-ins folder if you do not have plug-ins):
Mac:
/Users/username/Library/iTunes/iTunes Plug-ins/
/Library/iTunes/iTunes Plug-ins/
One thing I also wanted to mention is that the "Users/username/Library" is hidden in Lion and Mountain Lion. You can access it using these steps:
OS X Mountain Lion: What is the Library folder?
The Library folder contains files used by OS X and your apps, including your personal fonts and preferences. The Library folder is hidden. If you need to open it, make sure you are in the Finder, hold down the Option key, and then choose Go > Library.
You can find the full article here:
OS X Mountain Lion: What is the Library folder?

All the best,

Frustration! I have all igoods in order to use all, fully as should be. But looks like Softbank does no agree with any connection between iPhone and iMac... What in the world! How Apple let that happen???

Make sure that you allow pages to choose their colors and that you haven't enabled High Contrast in the Accessibility settings.

Oracle using all the ram on my server

You may not expressly be using all the RAM in your machine but OS X will, whether you know it or not.
Each time you read a file from disk, whatever was read is cached by the system; when the file or program is no longer in use, the memory is marked free for the system to recover for other purposes but as long as it remains in memory the next time you need to access that disk information it's simply read from memory.
The more RAM, the more disk data is kept around and the faster your machine will operate until that memory needs to be recovered or you reboot (or otherwise flush the disk cache.)

Imac is using all 512mb of ram.
