Memory probs after Leopard--can't run some applications

I installed Leopard and am now having all kinds of memory problems. I'm unable to run some applications at all, and unable to perform some functions within ones that do run. Always getting a "not enough memory" message. I never had this problem with Tiger. I see other discussions about Leopard and memory issues, but am afraid they're above my technical knowledge. How do i find out if I really am short on memory now? Activity monitor Disk Usage shows 92 GB in use and only 1 GB space free. I don't have any huge graphics applications or anything. Opinions?
Thanks!

Hi Erica_D;
As everyone else has said you have your hard drive over full. You must start getting rid of some files on the hard drive. Two good applications for finding out where you are using the disk space are WhatSize and OmniDiskSweeper.
Once you get some free space, I would strongly recommend that you boot from the install media that came with your Mac and repair the disk. When you run your free disk space as low as you have it greatly increases the chances of file corruption. If you done repair this corruption it can lead to all kinds of strange problems in the future.

Can't run some programs after system restore to remove virus

Hi,
My duaghter's Toshiba had a nasty virus that pretended to be an antivirus software product, that snuck in, between the time her default Norton service expired and I had the time to install Trend.
Could not remove it using Trend, so upon advice from a friend, decided to do a windows system restore to a point prior to the infection. This worked successfully, and the virus is gone, but now she can't run some programs, I have tried to install Trend again, but that fails as it says that you have to uninstall Norton first. But I can't run Norton, or uninstall it, and some folders on C: are no longer accessible.
Should I do a complete Toshiba system restore (ie back tofactory settings? This seems a drastic measure, but the issue is beyond my meagre PC skills.
Thanks,
Graeme

Thanks for your reply.
The main issue is that we cannot run the Norton Anitvirus that came prepackaged with the laptop, and we can't uninstall it either. If you try to perform either action, nothing happens.
However, when we try to install a new antivirus software, Trend, the install fails because it detects that Norton is installed, and indicates that we must uninstall Norton before we can complete the Trend installation. But we cannot unistall Norton for some reason.
I am getting my daughter to check what else doesn't work, but Microsoft Office works OK, and most of the games she installed seem to work. I just don't understand why Norton won't work now, and why we cannot uninstall it. I don't know if its due solely to the system restore, or some combination of events. The introductory 3 mont Norton licence has expired some time ago, but it should still let us uninstall. I have also tried to unistall through the Control panel, but nothing happens when I try that either.
Is there any way to force the uninstall of Norton? Or is a factory reset the only viable option now?
Thanks,
Graeme

That post won't help your situation as you are not talking to MSI here like I already said two posts above:

HT201210 why i can't syn some application after restoring

Why i can't sync some application from my mcbook back to my iphone after i upgraded to ios 5.1.1?

Have you checked that those Apps are Compatible with iOS 5.1.1

I have first iPod touch, but can't after restore can't reinstall some apps I bought because they have been updated in iTunes to newer versions

I have first iPod touch, but can't after restore can't reinstall some apps I bought because they have been updated in iTunes to newer versions? I am giving this to my grandchildren and their favorite game Skee-Ball updated and now can't reinstall on iPod touch.

If you still have the apps on the iPod you can delete them from the computer and then transfer the apps from the iPod t the computer by:
iTunes Store: Transferring purchases from your iPhone, iPad, or iPod to a computer
Next would be to look in your computer backups file for a version of the apps that works with the iOS on the iPod.
Otherwise you are out of luck.

How can i run Webdynpro application

How can i run Webdynpro application without using Developer Studio? Where should i put a whole project and how shoud i start it.
Thanks!
Maciek

Hi Maciej
You wouldnt require a Developer Studio to run you
application.But you would require it to deploy (if are
using the JDI ,atleast to perform an Activation).
However you can launch the application once deployed
through the Web Dynpro Content Administrator
http://<servername>:50000/webdynpro/welcome/
The deployed applications are present on the
lefthandside. They can be expanded to drill down to the
Application and the press Run

I created an application on a machine with Labview 6.01, can I run this application on another machine that has labview 5?

In the development center we use Labview 6.01, in the testcenter we use labview 5.
Additionally, in the development center we use a unix version of Labview and in the testcenter a Windows version.

You can Save with Option to save VIs as version 5.
Unless your VIs deal with system files in UNIX or Windows (ie. Registry...)
then you have to develop your VI specificly on that OS, since UNIX and
Windows have different ways to deal with system files. Mostly, LabVIEW is OS
independent. I used to have VIs developed from LabVIEW v.3 on UNIX, I can
still open these files from LV v.4 on Windows. Now I can still work with
these VIs on LV 6 on Windows.
Good luck,
Nam.

After cvfsck can't find some files? What chances of recover them?

Hi all,
so the problem is that in my xsan one of the volumes have restarted 2-3 times in a day. So i did cvfsck -wv. During the chek it reported File System Status as Clean and at the end that F+ile system have been modified+. After that i can not find some of the files. Is this normal behavior of cvfsck? Is there any chances to recover lost files?
Thanks in advance

In the root of the filesystem there normally is a folder "lost+found", in which files with strange names are found. These are the files cvfsck has collected in the recovering of the filesystemnames. It is sometimes not possible to recover the original file name and location. So this is the only way for cvfsck to give them back.
If you think the content of these files is allright, you can rename and relocate them.

Donald

How can I run a application on a machine without JDK installed?

Hi all,
I'm new to java,I want to know if there's a way to run a application on a machine without JDK installed, I noticed that some server application such as Domino have CORBA applications running in background,how can I set up such environment without JDK installed?
Thanks.

I believe there are two basic ways you could go about this.
1) Install the JRE (Java Runtime Environment) on the machine in question.
2) Use JSP to make a server side app that interacts via browser on the local machine.
