Low on memory (not RAM memory)

hi!
i have a Imac G5 running version 10.5.6 and was curious as to go abouts seeing major files and deleteing them.
i have only 2GB of memory left on my entire hard drive and need to delete files and figure what is taking up so much memory.
thanks!

Hi amon2356;
Disk space is not generally referred to as memory. The term memory is reserved for RAM.
With only 2 GB of disk space left you are in terrible dangerous of file corruption and poor performance. I would suggest that you download Disk Inventory X. It will show you where your disk space is being used.
After you get some additional disk space I would suggest that you boot from the install media for your Mac and use Disk Utility to repair your disk to fix any corruption that may have taken place.

  • HT201250 Can I make my iMac think it has more (HDD) memory (not RAM) by using disk utility and an external 500GB drive?

    I have a Macbook Pro and iMac which are both great. But my 500gb hard drive isn't big enough to backup my 320GB MB PRO
    I thought maybe I can attach my HDD to my iMac to give it more memory. Then backup to the iMac
    If this isn't possible, could I login as an iMac user on my macbook pro and just have a mini server using my iMac and MB PRO? (My sister and parents use the iMac as their primary computer, i use my MB Pro as mine, so they would have to be able to use the computer at the same time as me using my macbook)
    In otherwords, I just want to be able to back up wireleslly but still acces all my files on both computers offline.

    If you're talking about TIme Machine backup, it should be dleting as it goes but I agree you need more to run that effectively.
    One solution, instead of TM would be to make a bootable clone with either SuperDuper or CarbonCopy Cloner
    and use that as your backup solution until you get a disk large enough for TM.

  • Copying to Main Memory (not Mass Memory)- N95 8GB

    Hi,
    While converting / transferring the videos from PC to N95 8GB throughPC Suite, I noticed that it copied the files in Main Memory instead of Mass Memory.
    Please let me know how to configure that or there is some other issue with this.
    Regards,
    Riz

    have you tried using Nokia Suite rather than Nokia PC Suite? as Nokia PC Suite is no longer being actively developed or is supported by Nokia. there should be an option in the Settings of Nokia Suite to change the save location to the Mass Memory.
    if not, then you can always use Windows Explorer to copy the files to the Mass Memory that appears as Removable Disk in windows.

  • Defrag the phone memory (not the memory card)

    Hello guys
    Is there a way to defrag the phone memory of my N73ME as I do with the memory card? Because my phone got a lot slower the last days (after formatting the memory card actually)

    You cant defrag phone memory. Your phone is slow because certain applications must be running in background. Close applications you dont need.

  • Not enough memory to upgrade to Lion?

    I want up upgrade to Lion but I'm told I don't have enough space.  My computer has at least 50 GB free.  What do I do?

    Hi, it's referring to Ram Memory, not storage memory.
    Click on Apple,  About this Mac. If you have less than 2GB memory you may need to purchase more ram.
    Before you do, make sure you are running at least Intel Core Duo. You can also find this info under the Apple symbol.
    I've had the same problem. Although Apple said initially that Intel Core Duo was all that was needed to run Lion, they forgot to mention the Ram.
    Hope this is helpful.

  • Low Memory (Storage, NOT RAM)

    Since yesterday, my phone (N95) has been erroring at pretty much everything I do, because the onboard memory has run to 0 available. From is, yesterday I had 0 and i deleted some videos totalling 14MB, but this morning those 14MB disappeared, and I'm back to 0.
    I have 2GB of SD card for storage, but when I USB the phone to my computer I cannot for my life find what exactly is taking up all the space on my phone. Any space I free, it just eats up. To the point where I cannot launch ANY programmes at all.
    I'r like to avoid putting my phone into factory defaults. Can anyone think of a solution.
    Any help would be much appreciated.
    Charlie

    Yeah I was hoping to avoid that one...
    Just to give you an idea of my memory use:
    147MB Memory in use
    0 B Free memory
    42kB Calendar
    81kB Contacts
    22kB Messages
    0 B Images
    0 B Sound files
    0 B Video clips
    589 B Documents
    190kB MIDP Apps.
    I just have no idea where my space is going...

  • Message "Could not save because there is not enough memory (RAM)"

    Running Mac OS9.2.2 Suddenly start to get and error message " An error occured saving the enclosure "file name" Not enough memory" when trying to save an attachment in Microsoft Outlook. Same thing with Adobe Photoshop - when trying to save an any new file - message "Could not save because there is not enough memory (RAM)".
    Already Tried:
    During several freezes, suddenly my mac stop recognize any extensions. When used Microsoft Outlook and tried download an attachment got an error message type 3. So I create a new set in extensions manager and get ride of Type 3 error, but get a new error message "Not enough memory" when try to save an attachment, or "Not enough RAM" - when try to save an EPS file in Adobe Photoshop.
    In Outlook ("Get Info" section)changed memory size:
    Suggested Size: 7168 K
    Minimum Size: 16000 K
    Preferred Size: 16000 K
    In all mailboxes - there are not that many messages and they are not heavy at all, I checked them all before. And I rebuilt/compressed Outlook database - holding Option while restarted Outlook...
    Adobe Photoshop - started acting weird at same time. Even if I want to open a file through the menu: File - Open - it gives me the same message.
    Who has any clue - please help!!!

    Hi, Mike -
    I have Outlook Express's Preferred memory allocation set to 45000K, and don't have any problems with attachments. Don't be afraid of increasing OE's Preferred memory allocation (nor IE's, either - I have that set to 65000K).
    How large is the Messages file used by the account you're using in Outlook? You can examine that file here - (hard drive) >> Documents >> Microsoft User Data >> Identities >> (account folder, either the default "Main Identity" or one you've created) >> Messages.
    It seems that the Messages file grows with each email received; but does not shrink when an email is deleted. Over time, especially when lots of attachments are involved, that file can get huge.
    One way to help it not get too big is to -
    • delete attachments after copying them to the desktop. In case you're not familiar with the easy way to copy an attachment to the desktop - select the email so it opens; click the small triangle next to the legend "Attachments" between the upper pane and the lower pane in Outlook's main window; drag the attachment from the list out onto the desktop. It will be extracted and copied to that location. Once that has been done you can delete the attachment from the email with which it arrived.
    • after purging your emails of unneeded emails and attachments, compact the file. To do that, quit Outlook if it is running. Then hold down the Option key and start up Outlook. A splash screen will appear asking if you want to compact its database files - click yes. Follow the prompts.
    Compacting OE's database can also fix some instances of a damaged database that can't be used.
    If you could answer a few more questins, perhaps we can offer additional suggestions -
    1) How much RAM do you have installed? That means the physical RAM, not counting Virtual Memory in use, if any.
    2) How full is your hard drive - how big is it, how much free space is left unused?
    3) When was the last time you rebuilt the desktop file?

  • CS3 - not enough memory error (RAM)

    I have a 3-month old MacBook Pro, Snow Leopard, 8 gb RAM. 75% alloted to Photoshop - is this too high? Must be the default, as I haven't changed it yet.
    I am running CS3. Worked great for a few months, but lately if I have any other program open, I am unable to open up Black & White adjustment. I get this error message:
    "Could not complete your request because there is not enough memory (RAM)."
    If Photoshop is the only open program, I am able to do B&W but it is crippling to my workflow. I am only opening 1 or 2 photos at once.
    Bridge also crashes almost daily when browsing RAWs and PSDs.
    Seems like with 8 GB on a brand new machine this shouldn't be happening. Any ideas?
    Thanks!

    75% is rather a lot as it will not leave very much for the MacOS to page. Try reducing it to 60% and see what happens.
    Its also important to make sure that there is a decent amount of free space on the hard disk as Photoshop will want to create a "virtual image" file on the HD when it runs low on RAM . . . 5Gb is minimum, although 10Gb is not a bad idea.
    CS3 is also pretty old to be running on Snow Leopard, so there may be some issues there which are adding to your current difficulties.

  • Photoshop cs6 error "Could not complete command because there is not enough memory (RAM)"

    Hi, I have a Macbook Pro and the Adobe Creative Suite 6, and all of my other adobe programs run smoothy with the exception of photoshop. For about the past year and a half now, I will very inconsistency receive the error message, "Could not complete ___ command because there is not enough memory (RAM)."  Sometimes this problem gets so bad that I am not even able to open my preferences.
    My computer seems as though it should have plenty of space to run photoshop, and I have taken my computer to a number of differed tech supports, but they have only been able to temporarily make the problem less severe for short periods until it acts up again and completely prevents me from using Photoshop. I recently updated to Yosemite and deinstalled/reinstalled photoshop, hoping that would fix things, but I still get the message almost any time I try to complete a command.
    Your help would be very much appreciated, thank you!

    3.5Mhz?  Do they even make processors that slow?
    I'm trying to think back through Photoshop versions, but IIRC it became hungry for RAM with CS5, but it might even have been CS4.  But certainly from CS5 onwards a 32 bit system was going to be severely compromised with its 3.5Gb RAM limit, of which Photoshop could access only a bit over 2Gb.  You might remember the 4Gb switch that let you use a bit more of your 4Gb of installed RAM.  That worked OK with XP but was still flakey, and third party plugins used to fall over all the time through lack of RAM — at least Photoshop has a Scratch drive.
    So nowadays you can forget trying to use Photoshop on 32bit hardware.  You need 64 bit and at least 8Gb RAM.  So like I said, the OP needs to look deeper into the 'apparent' over heating issue, and put that other 4Gb back in.  I can't even conceive of why a person would cripple their system by removing RAM. _Especially_ when it leaves just 4Gb

  • Will Installing more RAM improve performanc​e, IF laptop has "available memory" not being used?

    My laptop has 2x 1GB of RAM.
    Right now, and usually, The Physical Memory shown in Task Manager, shows that there is "available memory" (currently it's 500megs worth). (And "system cache" says 300megs.)
    There is also, right now, 2.5GB of page filing being used.
    If I were to replace the 2GB of RAM with 4GB (of the same Mhz), would there be a noticable increase in performance?
    (windows XP 32bit OS)

    A matched set of DDR2 ram will perform a lot faster one memory not matched. Its required for the double data rate to work. Hence 2+2 is the max you'd need/want in a 32bit machine. Windows 7 was built for large memory footprints. XP was built to run just barely in 64MB but really needed a min of 128MB to support a network connection and printing. It was never enable to truely go a whole lot further than a few machines built capable of 1GB. There was even a bug which was patch causing problems if a !GB or more was available. Just because it can see it does not mean it actually uses it !! The kernal by default is swapped in/out of ram even in larger memory systems. Why, it was is not aware of the extra memory and does not change its behavour from a 512MB machine.
    As for the 1333Mhz ram the timing may be faster than the other memory used. Hence it flow the data faster on the bus. Fewer delays in various cycles including the RAS/CAS etc but thats all under the hood so to speak.

  • Could not complete the smart sharpen command because there is not enough memory (RAM)

    Hi,
    I'm trying to complete the AutoSharpen (Filter->Sharpen->AutoSharpen) feature but, i'm getting the following error when i click on "Ok".
    Error in Dialogue Box "Could not complete the smart sharpen command because there is not enough memory (RAM)".
    Request the SME's and Adobe community team members to help me overcome this step to proceed further.
    I'm using a 32 Bit Win7 OS and have a 4GB RAM on board.
    Regards,
    Sachin_

    As Curt says, Photoshop got more hungry for RAM from CS4, and 32bit systems just weren't cutting it, but there was a trick we used to use to squeeze a bigger slice of the available installed 4Gb
    Run the Command Prompt as Administrator, and type:
    "bcdedit /set IncreaseUserVa 3072"   (I can't remember whether the quote marks are needed or not.)
    That used to work for me with XP, and it is _supposed_ to work with Windows 7, but I know it doesn't always.
    If it doesn't work, or has unwanted consequences, turn it off with:
    "bcdedit /deletevalue IncreaseUserVa"
    If you want to research it before trying, seach for 'Windows 7 3Gb switch'.

  • "Could not complete the Save As command because there is not enough memory (RAM)"

    I'm trying to save a file and an error keeps popping up saying ""Could not complete the Save As command because there is not enough memory (RAM)". I'm using Adobe Photoshop CS5 Extended. I have no other windows open. I checked the RAM allocated to Photoshop, in the Preferences > Performance tab, and I have tried it at 60% (980 MB) and 90% (1483 MB), still with no luck. I tried Purging the undo, clipboard and history with no help either.
    I read a couple of other posts that were similar to this and people suggested " resetting the preferences as described in the FAQ." but is there any way to do this without closing Photoshop?
    I can't loose this file, so any help woudl be appreciated.

    I'm sorry to hear it locked up on you, and with only a GIF saved (which is probably useless).  Perhaps I should have suggested Select All / Copy first.
    As far as what went wrong...  It might be helpful to know some of the specifics:
    What operating system are you running?
    Do you see any errors in the Windows error logs corresponding in time to this problem, and if so, what are the specifics?
    Do you have Photoshop updated to 12.0.3?
    What video card do you have, and do you have updated video drivers?
    Is OpenGL enabled in Edit - Preferences - Performance?
    What kinds of operations did you do since you started the session of Photoshop that ultimately went bad?
    What other applications were you running?
    What kind of computer is it (specifically, can you install more RAM)?
    It might not be possible to pinpoint just what went wrong, but perhaps we could make some general suggestions that might help.
