Insufficient memory was available to complete the operation

Hello,
I am having trouble using the "place" function to drop a JPEG with a size of approximately 7.6MB into Illustrator CS5. I am creating cross-sections for drill hole planning, and I use the images exported from Geosoft's Target as a base. From there I interpret the geology, precious metal occurences, plan drill holes in Illustrator. I am by no means an expert with Creative Suite, but I know enough to get around. My computer has an i7 processor, 8GB RAM, and 750GB of hard drive space. My intentions are not to be rude, but do not waste my time assuming I am a complete idiot (e.g. I rebooted my machine, rebooted the program, checked to make sure I have plenty of space available, etc...). I worked all night last night without issue, and create all of my cross-sections using this method. I typically never get any issues, but this problem has randomly cropped up twice (the last time it eventually stopped). Unfortunately, I do not have time to magically wait for Illustrator to right itself as I need to present to my Sr. VP on Monday.
Cutting to the chase:
I exported a drill hole fence from Target as a JPEG with a file size of 7.6MB. I then opened up my cross-section template (.ai file) in illustrator, went to File|Place| and accessed the file (I also tried to File|Open). Rather than performing the operation I get the error message "Insufficient memory was available to complete this operation". I then restarted my computer, and attempted this again. My CPU usage is fluttering at 3% +/- 2%, and the Physical Memory is at 31% usage. This seems pretty "buggy" to me, but as I said I am a "beginner user" and perform very basic operations in Illustrator. I have looked around the forums and have seen this issue come up several times, sometimes with very complex advice. I have no plug-ins installed, and have not fiddled with any settings.
Thanks ahead of time for any help provided.

Thank you, Mike! That worked for me. Although it doesn't really answer the question I am not too concerned since 99% of the time I have no problem. I guess that is a follow up to the other suggestions as well. I worked from 5PM to midnight last night, and made several end product cross-sections. Then this morning it just decided that it was going to stop working.
For now I am not going to ask too many questions, and will just avoid directly importing the JPEG's from Target. When I get more time perhaps I will try to actually get to the root of the problem as opposed to using a work around.

Check the JPEG file in another program. It's probably damaged or contains some odd metadata that throws AI off.

Not enough storage is available to complete this operation

I have a new computer. Windows 7, i7 processor, SSD with 256 GB, 16 GB RAM, 4K graphics card, But when I try to do Adaptive Wide Angle correction to my photo, I get the error message : Not enough storage is available to complete this operation. I have tried to increased the cache size, I tried to place the cache in different hard drives with 1.5 TB space, I updated my Windows, updated my graphics card driver, updated my PS CS6, still get the same error message. What can I do to make Adaptive Wide Angle work? I have no other software installed in my computer except Windows and Photoshop.

Probably because you don't have enough storage available to complete the operation.
256 GB is a terribly small drive - especially when you are utilising memory/cache intensive operations.

Issue with turning on project 2010 / 2013 - "There is not enough memory to complete the operation. To free up available memory, close programs, projects, or windows you aren't using, and then try again."

I get the following error after the installation and configuration window of MS Project: "There is not enough memory to complete the operation. To free up available memory, close programs, projects, or windows you aren't using, and then try again."
It happens both with MS Project 2010 and 2013 on a Windows 7 desktop.
I tried installing / uninstalling Office 2010, MS Project, tried installing 32 and then 64 bit versions, clean up, disk error checker, startup changes (msconfig), anti virus, running as Windows 7 and then Windows XP compatible mode.
Nothing helps. I see this issue reported as early as 2007 version of MS projects on Microsoft forums, but I do not see any solution anywhere. Any suggestions on how to fix the issue without having to reformat hard drive? Every other application, including
all other Office programs work seamlessly.
I also tried Microsoft support, after an hour and a half of basically doing what I did before, I was told I have to pay 99$ for "premium" support, so someone can look at this bug.
I have 16 Gb RAM and more than 200Gb or hard drive free, so actual memory is not the problem.

This issue was originally reported with MS Project 2007 and keeps popping up since.
A quick Google search provides more than 200K pages of results of this issue:

Computer was defragged already. I run more tests, and specifically when MS Projects tries to run, it tries to take all memory, more than 300Gb, on the computer. (DropBox was running at the same time, and warned that there were no space. As soon as MS Project
stopped attempting to configure itself, everything came back to normal and the available space became available again.)
Looking through older forum posts, looks like this application tries to take "unlimited" amount of memory. Some registry fixes are mentioned potentially, but I was not able to apply them.
Since everything else works, this is a MS Project bug reported by multiple users on various versions of Windows, including Vista and 7, so please provide a fix and not 'not a know bug' lie. All the premium support will say, is to format the hard drive, unless
they have a patch or a registry edit solution. If the latter is true, since the issue exists for multiple years, it should have been already been provided to users.
Also, I am not running a SQL server, or any server, this is an installation on a local machine.

I located a solution, finally! It was solved back in 2007. It is NOT a memory issue nor a conflict with other software as most of the forum advisers suggest. It is a pure MICROSOFT problem with Registry permissions. And as they provide no solution
(as of 2014 yes 7 years) one has to use a registry hacking tool to take command of the registry. The solution that worked perfectly for me is located here :

Not enough memory to complete the operation-how do i eliminate the error?

HI All,
I have posted the questions before in this forum,but as i am not able to cure the problem i am posting it again.
I have a large database oriented application to plot graph.Almost one year back given the application to the user.
They were not getting any problem before.But now the user is telling they are getting an error message-"not enough memory to complete the operation".The same application is running in one of our pcs also.But here no problem.
Tried to change the vitual memory setting in the user's pc by setting to system managed size.
But still getting the same error.
Why the same application running finely in one pc and resulting some error in another pc?
Except that they are getting the error message the application is running properly(ie,except that they are getting the error they are able to plot the graph.)Is there any work around for this?Atleast is there any way to hide the error message?

Hi user_1,
no, you can't hide that error message.
It seems you are dealing with very big data arrays (kind of duplicate posting). Please read the knowledge base article on memory efficient programming!
The "not enough memory" occurs when LabView has to create a data copy and doesn't get the memory needed for. The only (?) way to avoid this is efficient programming!
When you increase the memory available in the PC the error will only occur later!

[823] [HY000] [Microsoft][ODBC SQL Server Driver][SQL Server]The operating system returned error 1450(Insufficient system resources exist to complete the requested service.) to SQL Server.

Hi,
I am facing an issue while loading fresh data into SQL server database.
we are able to load data into staging area, but while processing stored procedures system face bellow error message :
[823] [HY000] [Microsoft][ODBC SQL Server Driver][SQL Server]The operating system returned error 1450(Insufficient system resources exist to complete the requested service.) to SQL Server during a write at offset 0x00000243bd0000 in file 'E:\SQLDB\DBName.mdf'.
Additional messages in the SQL Server error log and system event log may provide more detail. This is a severe system-level error condition that threatens database integrity and must be corrected immediately. Complete a full database consistency check (DBCC
CHECKDB). This error can be caused by many factors; for more information, see SQL Server Books Online.
we use windows 2008 R2 with SQL server managment studio 2008.
Appreciate your suggestion.
Thanks in advance.

Hi Manorath,
Based on my research, this issue can be occurred in the following scenarios:
You are running a DBCC command on a large database. For example, you are running the DBCC CHECKDB statement on the database. At the same time, you run many DML statements on the database.
You create a database snapshot for a large database. At the same time, you are running many DML statements on the database.
In these scenarios, the SQL Server service stops responding. The DBCC CHECK statement is never completed, and you receive the error message repeatedly.
This issue occurs because the sparse file for a database snapshot file has exceeded the file size limitation in NTFS file system. When the operating system error 1450 occurs, SQL Server enters an infinite retry loop.
To fix this issue, please download and install Cumulative update package 1 for SQL Server 2008 Service Pack 1. Besides, because the fixes are cumulative, each new release contains all the hotfixes and all the security fixes that were included with the previous
SQL Server 2008 fix release. We recommend that you consider applying the most recent fix release that contains this hotfix.

RDP session to 2012 R2 server comes up with "Not enough storage is available to complete this operation"

I've just set up two new servers in identical fashion which will be hyper-v hosts.
They both have Windows Server 2012 R2 Datacentre installed. 128GB of RAM and c:247GB free, d: 1.9TB free. Resources are not an issue.
Only role installed is Hyper-V on both.
I can RDP to one server without a problem but the other is complaining with the message above. The only option is to click OK and this exits the session. I can log in fine through the Drac card of the server.
I get terminalservices events 261, 1149, 40.
At this time I also get Desktop Window Manager event 9009 - The Desktop Window Manager exited with code (0xd00002fe).
The other strange issue which may or may not be relevant is when I enter task manager on the affected server, the User details tab has lots of entries (approx. 60) with no names and 0% CPU/Memory. This looks odd to me.
Any help gratefully received as I don't want to rebuild from scratch if it is a basic tweak setting somewhere.

Hi Sir,
What I understood from this error was thata RESTRICTED amount of MEMORY allocated for particular type of OS RESOURCE,
has got EXHAUSTED.<o:p></o:p>
<o:p> </o:p>
In both the cases above,
the resource type that was getting exhausted or causing other resources to be exhausted was a HANDLE. A Handle is an OS object used to get a reference of another object (like File, registry,
port etc.). It’s using these handles that a process will work with open files, read registry keys or work with a network port.<o:p></o:p>
<o:p> </o:p>
In both the above scenarios,
we saw a process (Non-Microsoft) consuming large amount of Handles. You can view the handles owned by different processes through
"Task Manager" in Windows. In the "Task Manager", under the Process tab you can add an additional column to display Handles information.

Anyone had similar issue. Could you please share your experience and resolution if any.
Thanks Shiven:) If Answer is Helpful, Please Vote

Hi Shiven,
In your scenario, the issue occur at sometimes, right? Base on my research, the issue can be caused by that calculation estimate exceeded available memory. Possibly due to possible number of dimension members and sizes of keys. And 32bit environment didn’t
allow for any expansion to the SSAS memory space.
To avoid this issue, please try to use userva to fine tune the 3GB setting down to 2900 since /3GB is the likely
cause (has been for most other customers who encountered the same problem before). The KB Articles below discuss that setting in detail.

Finder cannot complete the operation... (Error code -36)

Hello,
I'm trying to share a file between my new iMac and my PowerBook via file sharing (Finder, Airport 802.11 n). Both computers are on 10.5.3. The iMac is a brand new one, so it's a fresh install. The PowerBook has a new harddrive and is a fresh install as well. Both are on the most current software.
Here's what happens: Both computers are visible in each respective Finder, but files can only be shared from the iMac towards the PowerBook, not vice versa. When trying to connect from the PowerBook to the iMac, it tries to connect but to no avail, then I receive an error message "Connection Failed".
Next thing I tried was to connect via Finder/Connect to Server and typing in the afp:// address (looked it up at System Preferences/Sharing/File Sharing). It again tries to connect, then I receive the error message: "The finder cannot complete the operation because some data in "afp://192.xxx.x.xxx" could not be read or written (Error code -36)".
Now I'm puzzled and don't know what to do. Any help would be much appreciated, thanks.

Insufficient system resources exist to complete the requested service

[I did intend to start this post with a screenshot of the above error when I initiate the transfer from Windows Explorer, but apparently 'Body text cannot contain images or links until we are able to verify your account.' so I will just have to do some typing,
viz the error dialog says:
'An unexpected error is keeping you from copying the file. If you continue to receive this error, you can use the error code to search for help with this problem.
Error 0x800705AA: Insufficient system resources exist to complete the requested service.'
I get this error pretty much 100% of the time from one particular PC when trying to copy a folder of 10 2GB files to a server with both mirror and parity storage spaces.
I recently purchased a Thecus W5000 running Windows Storage Server 2012 R2 Essentials. Absent any guidance either way I decided to set up a storage pool across the three 3TB WD Red drives that I have installed in it and to allocate 1.5TB of that space to a
mirror storage space and the remainder to a parity storage space. Having read some faily dire things about storage spaces, but wanting the resilience provided by those two types of storage space, I decided to run some benchmarking tests before finalising anything.
To that end I only went as far through the Essentials setup as creating a handful of user accounts before setting up the storage spaces and sharing both of them, with all authenticated users permitted full control. My benchmarking consists of a Take Command
batch file timing three large directory copies - one with 10 2GB files, one with 10240 10K files and another with a multi-level directory with a variety of files of differing sizes. The first two are completely artificial and the latter is a real world example
but all are roughly 20GB total size.
To test various aspects of this I copied the three structures to and then from a partition created on the internal disk (the W5000 has a 500GB SSHD) and to the two storage space partitions. I also created a version of the batch file for use internally which
did something similar between the internal disk and the two storage space partitions, and another as a control that tested the same process between the two Windows PCs. The internal test ran to successful completion, as did the PC to PC copy and the external
one from my Windows 8.1 64-bit system (i5 3570K, 16GB RAM, 1TB HD) but when I ran it from my Windows 7 Pro 64-bit gaming rig (i7 2600K, 8GB RAM, 1TB HD) I got a number of failures with this error from Take Command:
TCC: (Sys) C:\Program Files\bat\thecus_test_pass.btm [31] Insufficient system resources exist to complete the requested service.
(where line 31 of that batch file is a copy command from local D: to the parity space on the Thecus).
The error occurs only when copying large files (the 2GB ones already mentioned but some of those in the real world structure that are about 750MB in size) from the Win7 system to the Thecus and only when doing so to the storage space volumes - ie. copying to
the internal disk works fine, copying from all volumes works fine, copying internally within the Thecus works fine, copying between the Win8 and Win7 machines works fine and initiating the copy as a pull from the server between the same two disks also works
fine. One aspect of this that surprised me somewhat was just how quickly the copy fails when initiated from Windows Explorer - checking out the details section of the copy dialog I see roughly ten seconds of setting up and then within five seconds after the
first file transfer is shown as starting the error dialog pops up (as per the image no longer at the top of this post).
There are no entries in the event log on either machine related to this error and I've had the System Information window of the Sysinternals Process Explorer up and running on both machines whilst testing this, and it shows nothing surprising on either side.
I've also run with an xperf base active and I can't see anything pertinent in the output from either system.
Frankly, I am at a loss and have no idea what other troubleshooting steps I should try. The vast majority of the existing advice for this error message seems to relate to Windows 2003 and memory pools - which both the fact that this works from one PC but not
the other and the SysInfo/xperf output seems to suggest is not the issue. The other thing I've seen mentioned is IRPStackSize, but again if that was the problem I would expect the failure to occur where ever I initiated the large file transfer from.

Ff it works from the win 8 box, it must be in the win 7 box?
I'm going to answer this one first because much of the rest of this is not going to be pertinent to the problem at hand. I've been over and over this aspect whilst trying to think this issue through and you are right, except that it only happens when copying
files to the Thecus and only then when the target is a ReFS partition on a mirror or parity storage space. So the best I can come up with is that it is most likely an issue on the Win7 box that is triggered by something that is happening on the server side,
but even that is a bit of a stretch. This is why the lack of information from the error message bugs me so much - in order to debug a problem like this you need to know what resource has been exhausted and in which part of the software stack.
Now that may not be easy to do in a generic way, and since programmers are inherently lazy it is tempting just to return a simple error value and be done with it. However, I've been in the position of doing just that in a commercial product and ended up
having to go back and improve the error information when that particular message/code was tripped and I was expected to debug the problem! Obviously there is a significant difference between a Microsoft consumer product and a mainframe product that costs many
times as much and comes with a built in maintenance fee, but the underlying requirement is the same - somebody needs to be able to solve the problem using the information returned. In this case that simply isn't possible.
You spend your time testing file copies, where I devote most of my time to backup and restore
I don't really want to be testing file copies - the initial intention was to benchmark the different storage space and file system combinations that I was intending to use but the error whilst doing so has spiralled into a cycle of testing and tweaking that
really isn't achieving anything. My primary reason for having a NAS at all has always been backup. My current strategy for the two boxes participating in this testing involves having a local drive/partition to hold backups, running a daily incremental file
copy to that partition which is then immediately copied to a NAS and backing that up with a regular (needs to be at least once per month to be totally secure) full image copy of the local disks that is also copied to the NAS afterwards (hence my fascination
with copying large files).
There is a weakness in that strategy because I've never been very good at performing that full image backup regularly enough, so one of the reasons for buying the W5000 was the possibility of making those backups automatic and driven from the server end.
However, that takes the local backup drives out of the equation and leaves me with the need to backup the NAS, which I don't do with my existing unit because there are (nearly) always copies held elsewhere.
The other reasons for going with the Thecus were a desire to backup the other machines in the household - I've always dreaded a hard drive failure on my wife's laptop but getting her to perform any kind of housekeeping is nigh on impossible and also to provide
a file server capability protected by a single set of userids (the existing NAS data is open to all household members). So my goal is backup and restore too ;)
I meant a different nic on the beast (win 7)
I should have realised that but obviously wasn't thinking straight. I don't have a spare gigabit NIC to hand (although perhaps even a megabit one might provide an interesting data point) although there is such a card in one of my other (less used) PCs that
I could cannibalise for testing purposes. Another project for the coming weekend methinks.
put some limits on it to keep the lawyers happy. 2gb ram, OS loaded on a drive, limit the # of Hard Drives
That statement got me thinking, because I've never been able to find a definition anywhere of what the restrictions are with WSS 2012 R2 Essential - if I bring up the software license terms on the box itself they are for 2012 Standard!?- and wonder whether
they'd stop me doing things like adding RAM or changing the processor.
Even my buddies at wegotserved do not seem to have done any hands on reviews and they get "everything."
The cynic in me wonders whether that is because Thecus know that they've just shovelled this onto a handful of existing boxes that barely meet the spec. and which simply aren't up to snuff as anything other than a box full of disks. The Thecus boxes
look like good value because they include the server OS (the unit cost me roughly 50% more than I could buy Windows Server 2012 R2 Essentials for) but if you can't realise that value then they are just an expensive NAS.
if perhaps the algorithms in the Seagate SSHD do not know ReFS?
I haven't put a ReFS partition on the SSHD, only on the three 3TB WD Reds.
I will ask my contacts at MS to take a look at this thread, but they stay so busy with v.next I don't know if they will spend many cycles on it
Perhaps you could ask them if the next version of the OS could do a better job of identifying which resources have been exhausted, by what part of the stack and where in the maze of connectivity that makes up a modern computing environment?? {gd&r}
