Microsoft word there is not enough memory or disk space to complete this operation when pasting picture

on macbook air getting error in word: 'there is not enough disk space or memory' when trying to paste picture

How big is the picture? How much free space does your hard drive have? Is your document saved on your computer's hard drive or on a network share?
Sorry that I only have questions but the information really could be important - the only explanation(s) for the error message you have are bound up in those questions.

Cannot print to pdf -There is not enough memory or disk space to repaginate this document

I don't know if this is an Adobe pdf issue or just a Word 2013 thing.
But I'm now using Word 2013 on Win 8.1, 64 bit, 8Gs of Ram and when I go to print a few select pages of my document a message pop out at me saying
'There is not enough memory or disk space to repaginate this document'.
When I had Win 7, the same amount of Ram and Word 2010, I print incrementally to pdf okay. Granted, sometimes certain pages print blank and I have to print it again after restarting the computer but at least I got stuff printed to pdf.
Now I go to print to pdf as little as 1 single page and that message just pop right up like a really bad penny. As far as I can tell, Adobe is up to date unless I'm missing something.
Has anyone ever had this issue and got it resolved?

Thanks TSN.
(how to check if Ram is full )?
the memory is 8 G Ram. I only have office 365, Acrobat X1 pro, Gimp, and Inkscape installed. The problem was there before I installed the last two.
I posted on Microsoft as well and the response was that since I could print the document on regular printer without any issues, then it is an Adobe issue. Using the toolbar is pdfing the full document. That takes a very, very, long time besides at the end of it, many pages are blank in the pdf file and then it is a matter of restarting the computer, re-pdfing until I am tired. So I print the pages incrementally. Any other way to pdf select pages without any problems?

Error message in MS Word opening a .docx file "There is not enough - Microsoft Community

"There is not enough memory or disk space..."

I am trying to open a .docx file with Word 2004 version 11.6.6 (purchased). However, I always get a message saying, "there is not enough memory or disk space to convert this document" when there is plenty of memory. I have a MacBook Pro version 10.6.8. I downloaded the .XML conversion app. from the Microsoft website to no avail. However, I can open the same file on my PowerMac G5 also with Word 2004 and the same .XML conversion app. I downloaded for my MacBook Pro from the Microsoft website. I checked the conversion log of the .XML converter and it says:
Start time: 2012-02-05 00:12:59 -0500
Converting file: /Users/xxxxxxxxxxx/Downloads/Formulario-Guía Observación de la Escuela-4.docx
objc[1541]: Class NLAssertionHandler is implemented in both /Applications/Open XML Converter.app/Contents/SharedSupport/wordcvtr and /Library/Application Support/Microsoft/Office Converter Support/Open XML for Word.framework/Versions/12/../../../MicrosoftComponentPlugin.framework/Versions /12/MicrosoftComponentPlugin. One of the two will be used. Which one is undefined.
Conversion failed
End time: 2012-02-05 00:13:01 -0500
What gives? Is the file I'm trying to open corrupt or is there some kind of update I need for my Office Word program? How can the file be opening fine on one of my computers, but not the other newer one?

I also run Word 2004 and OS X 10.6.8 and have a .docx file that the Microsoft Open XML Converter 1.2.1 will not convertet, yet the same problem .docx file will convert fine on a 10.4.11 OS X Mac.

Words - Not enough memory or disk space

In Words I receive message :
There is not enough memory or disk space to complete this operation?
Any Idea what can i do?

How much physical RAM is in your Mac? How much free disk space is there? What other apps are running along with Word.

"Not enough memory or disk space" -can't be true

I'm trying to open a doc file with images. The size of file is 1MB - when I try to open in word or double click on it I get this message; "There is not enough memory or disk space to complete this operation" - which makes no sense. Could the file be corrupt? Any ideas? Thanks in advance.

Yes. This file is probably corrupt. You may be able to open it "as text" and recover the text.
"Out of memory" is usually a catch-all error message that almost never means what it says.

Exporting from iPhoto: "Not enough disk space to complete this operation"

Hello. I am trying to compile a quick time slide show. There are 72 photos with a total size of 136mb. I get the error "there is not enough disk space to complete this operation" when I try and Export it to my Desktop. Is there a limitation on size to export to Quicktime slide show? I have never noticed this problem before.
Thanks.

Greetings--I may have solved this one myself. I knew I had plenty of HD space (92GB) so that wasnt the problem as the error indicated, so:
1--'poofed' iPhoto icon from the Dock--(don't know what the exact description is, but I removed the iPhoto icon from the Dock and it disappeared in a cloud of poof!).
2--I ran Disc Utility and repaired the HD.
3-- I then did a Restart.
My Export to Quicktime seems to be working okay at the moment with no more error
message so maybe the HD just needed straightening up. If you dont hear from me on here again, consider the problem solved.
Cheers.

Hi,
You must have read this thread:

To detail the steps, please do as I describe:
Important
This section, method, or task contains steps that tell you how to modify the registry. However, serious problems might occur if you modify the registry incorrectly. Therefore, make sure that you follow these steps carefully. For added protection, back up the
registry before you modify it. Then, you can restore the registry if a problem occurs. For more information about how to back up and restore the registry,
http://windows.microsoft.com/en-US/windows7/Back-up-the-registry
To open the Registry Editor, please press Win + R, type regedit in the blank box, press
Enter. / Or we can type regedit.exe in Windows 8.1 Search, you'll find it easily.
Now the Registry Editor is open.
Then we see the pane on left, expand the following path:
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\User Shell Folders
Then we can see a list on right, find Cache, right click on it, click
Modify..., under Value data, change the value to something like
C:\Windows\Temp, click OK.
Exit Registry Editor.
As for "You might also right click on the file with file explorer, choose Properties, then General tab and click on the Unblock button." Just find the file, right click on it, choose
Properties, under General tab, if you see a
Unblock button, click on it.
"Some of our customers found it sometimes a permission problem.
cmd => dcomcnfg" Do the following:
Press Win + R, type in cmd in the blank box, press
Enter.
In the new black-background window, type in dcomcnfg, press
Enter.
Then the Component Services window will pop up, on the left pane, expand
Component services -> Computes ->
My Computer -> Dcom config -> and select
Microsoft Excel Application, right click on it -> Properties ->
Identity tab -> Select The interactive user ->
OK.
I hope I've explained the steps clearly.
Good luck.

Hi,
If you are using 64-bit Office, make sure you also use 64-bit bit Proofing Tools. Refer to this thread below and probably it may be the cause in your scenario:

Why do I get there is not enough memory warning

I have a 2009 model Mac mini with only 2 GB of RAM, with a 160 GB hard drive, of which 116 GB remains unused. My MacBook Pro was being cranky, so I offloaded a bunch of files, via DVD and my external hard drive backup. Now when I try to open a document which was created in a newer version of Microsoft Word (I have Office 2004), I get the message "There is not enough memory or disk space to convert this document."
What can I do other than putting in new RAM, which is nigh on to impossible for me, as the closest Apple store is at least three hours from home. Should I upgrade Microsoft Office?
Thanks, MAM

VirtualRuffy:
Thank you for the most thoughtful, perceptive, intuitive and accurate/correct response vs all the pretenders giving out wrong and lazy-brain answers. Simple: ASK FOR ERROR DETAIL, which i did, and I got the "did not find what was expected" report - but did not realize what I could do about it. With your response as a guide I simply copied the entire Open Converter Supporter folder from my backup drive volume and used it to replace the folder in my active drive. Oh, the sweat virtues of having a backup copy of my original Leopard drive for emergency boot-up. BACKUP RULES !!
Thanks,

Microsoft Excel won't open because it says there is not enough memory?

I'm trying to open Microsoft Excel and a prompt appears stating that there is not enough memory even though I have 140gb available of a 250gb hard drive. Any suggestions?

You're right, i did. But how do I clear out available RAM? When I check the Activity Monitor and then System Memory it says I have 1.3gb available. That SHOULD be enough. Right?

Why does my Mac keep telling me that there is not enough memory when I need to open Excel?

I have Excel installed on my iMac.
I only use this rarely, mostly when I have grants to write for my students.
When I try to open Excel, to look at an old document, I get the message that there is not enough memory, even though my Mac right now has 74 GB available.
I really, really, really need to access these files, so am hoping for an answer to this puzzle!
Thanks so much!!!

OK, so here's what I did.
First time, I reinstalled Office: 2008. It must have sent the first one to the trash, because there were 9200+files in the trash once it was finished. It looked for updates but didn't tell me that it needed any, so I tried to access Excel again, but got the same error message.
So, then I dragged the whole Microsoft Office 2008 to the trash (it is still sitting there----question about this, too). I reinstalled the whole thing again, but this time, it identified 3 updates that also needed to be installed. I did that, and now, I am able to open Excel!
Now my question about the trash: if I empty the trash, am I going to lose all the files (especially worried about all the Word documents) that I had used the original one for, or, are all those documents, and the Excel files, still there after the trash with the original Office 2008 is emptied; I wasn't able to only drag Excel to the trash so had to drag the whole thing.
Am thinking that somehow those updates were never applied, which is very puzzling, because the first time I reinstalled, it didn't say anything about needing updates, but the second time, it did.
Thank you!
