Not enough memory to export? CS4

Hi all
I wanted to export a 7 mg ai to a flattened, RGB 300 dpi .psd and got a 'not enough memory to save file' message. If this were an older machine or the .ai file was huge and the assigned scratch disk small I'd agree, but I'm thinking it must have something to do with a .tif file that was placed in the document.
This is the second time I've ever placed art, so bear with any ignorance, please. The original .tif file is 2.5 mgs and then needed to be reduced considerably and to keep the file size down I chose to link it instead of embedding. Bad idea?
Or is there something else that might cause this problem? Thanks for any advice.

First I will address the misconception of a 7MB being a small file when you want to export to say tiff or psd at only 300 ppi is actually at 8.5 x 11 inches is 64 MB 20x24 is 164 as 8 bit if it is being exported as cmyk add four layers and with content and it gets much larger. So 7MB is not an accurate way of describing what you are exporting better to give the dimensions and number of layers and complexity of the part does it have for instance paths with lots of points does it use a lot of symbols.
Also do you have a scratch disk other than the startup disk, does it have a lot of free space, is it fragmented?
What about your hardware, system and plug ins?

CR2008 Not enough memory while exporting reports from Crystal Reports 2008

I have recently upgraded our Crystal Reports version from Crystal Reports Basic for Visual Studio 2008 to Crystal Reports 2008. After upgradation I am facing the problem "Memory full.OtherErrorFailed to export the report. Not enough memory for operation" when I am trying to export the report from Crystal Reports 2008 Report viewer, or directly from the code behind. The application is hosted application. The problem occurs in our production environment.

string Filename = Path.Combine(Environment.GetFolderPath(Environment.SpecialFolder.InternetCache).ToString(), Guid.NewGuid().ToString() + ".pdf");
Report.ExportToDisk(ExportFormatType.PortableDocFormat, Filename);
Clean Up Code: (Page_UnLoad event)

     Report.Close();
     Report.Dispose();
Creportviewer.ReportSource = null;
Creportviewer.Dispose();
dsReport = null;
GC.Collect();
GC.WaitForPendingFinalizers();
Can someone help me resolve the issue.

The .rpt file size is 14MB with the Data Save option enabled, 12MB without Data Save. Presumably the 12MB file size is because of the 24bit PNG we have as our background.
The Designer executes the report in less than a second and we can scroll through all pages and see the image fields perfectly.
When we Export to PDF, the Designer takes a long time, eventually gets to the 77%, the 7th record and returns "Export report failed" followed by "Memory full". If we export only page 1 of the 3 pages, it also returns a Memory full error. However, when the same report is run with only 1 page, that page exports to PDF but with a ridiculously large size and export time.
The machine has 2GB of physical memory with an 8GB pagefile with Windows 2003 (latest everything). The process runs up to about 1GB before reporting the memory full error.
We've also tried a variety of other suggestions posted in the other thread with no success.
We're happy to provide the RPT file to the Report Team to diagnose the problem. Ultimately, we need to be able to produce a 15 page report with approximately 45 images.
Our preferred scenario is fixing problem 2. The CR Designer seems quite capable of rendering our report and printing it to our third party PDF printer in a timely manner with small size. However, the API reports memory full.
The API resides in a dedicated reporting web service with NO other code except for loading the report, setting parameters and printing. When executing, it uses up to about 1.1GB before reporting the error.
Are there any other suggestions for fixing what we have? Are there known problems with large images in reports? Do we need to lodge a formal support request?

Not enough Memory to export?

When doing a lot of work on an image using more than one too
l ie adjustment brush, spot removal and then exporting as a jpeg, it doesnt always export due to 'not enough memory' but also if successfully exported, once opened in Adobe and changes made ie resized, it then cant be saved.
Should LR2 be removed?
Is using Adobe Photoshop 7 a possible issue?

Hope you don't mind me piggy-backing on your message. I'm having a similar problem, since I upgraded from LR 2.7 to 3. Using LR 3.0 (Camera RAW 6.1), I tried exporting a Canon 5d II RAW file to disk as a PSD file, to be opened by Photoshop (CS3) later. This RAW had one adjustment brush adjustment. When trying to export to disk, I get a "not enough memory" response. Restarting computer does not help. Exported this same RAW file about a month or so ago, using Lightroom 2.7; this export was successful (same computer, resources, etc.). Looks like something may have happened to LR software between versions 2.7 and 3.
Here are the specifics at the time of the export:
- Image file: CR2 file, ~ 27 Mbyte + 14Kbyte sidecar
- Dell T5400 PC with dual-core processors
- OS: Windows XP Pro, Service Pack 3, build 2600
- Physical memory available at the time of export attempt: ~ 2.7 Gbytes out of a total of 4G.
- Hard drive space: 223 GBytes out of a total of 1 Tbytes.
- Virtual memry: ~ 2Gbytes
Adobe: Appreciate a fix soon. I do photography professionally, dealing with a lot of image files from any given job. This problem has become a big pain in the butt. Had to open up Photoshop CS3 and use its Camera RAW program to convert the CR2 files as a work around (of course, I'm not taking advantage of LR's adjustment brushes).

"Not enough memory" when exporting DNG to PSD, noise opening it

Hi guys, I'm using LR 4.2 and trying to export to PS CS6 on my Win 7 Asus 4gb laptop with 45gb free space on my hard drive.
I have made substantial edits to a raw file in LR and am attempting to export it to PS for final edits (cloning out extraneous features) at 16cm and 150 ppi (less than ideal but still too large). The working file is 73 mb.
However, I am getting an unsufficient memory error when trying this on Tif or Psd, even Jpg. I can get it to export as original, which gives me a DNG but then I get the same lack of memory issue when trying to open it in Photoshop.
What I can do is open the working DNG file in Photoshop but then only some of my adjustments come through - all the noise removal I have done has gone and the image is very noisy in PS. I can also convert it to Tiff using VSO Image Resizer and open this in PS but again, the noise is there.
The image is to be used as the cover photo on an A4 magazine so needs to be of print-quality.
I'd be grateful if anyone could give me some advice on how to deal with this problem image.
Thanks in advance,
Jo

Your memory issue isn't addressed here but try this to see if you can get a usable file before your deadline:
Hit CTRL S to make certain your metadata is saved (although it shouldn't matter). Then don't export as Original but rather export as DNG from Lightroom.
Does the image import properly now to PS?
On a side note: regardless of the flie format PSD, TIF, JPEG, the image takes up roughly the same amount of RAM when open in PS.

'Not enough Memory' to export file to Photoshop

I have a 1.2 MB file done in Illustrator that I can't export to Photoshop. I used a distort filter on the solid background and there are tons of points. Also, the file is 26" by 14". Other than that layer, it's not complex. I have 8GB ram and am using a Mac Pro 2x 3.2GHz. Should this be a problem? Even if I take out the complex layer and delete it, it still won't save.

What resolution are you exporting to? 26˝ × 14˝ at 300 ppi is a pretty big file. 131,040,000 bytes for a one-layer CMYK file. More layers means multiplying that size.
If all else fails, you can copy/paste the Illustrator file into Photoshop as a smart object or just open the Illustrator file in Photoshop. If you need to retain layers, then use the Smart Object option and hide or delete layers as needed for each of several copy/paste repetitions. I suggest adding a surrounding object on a new layer below all other layers for registration.
For a four-layer file, add a fifth layer (we’ll call it “Layer 5”) at the bottom and draw a white rectangle the size of the artboard. Hide all but Layer 4 and Layer 5, select all, Copy, switch to Photoshop, Paste as Smart Object. Back in Illustrator, hide Layer 4, show Layer 3, Select All, etc. Repeat until all is copied over. In Photoshop, all the layers should be aligned, since they are all the same size. You can double-click on the disk icon in the Layers panel to edit each Smart Object in Illustrator and delete or hide Layer 5. Back in Photoshop rasterize all layers.

With every second or third file I want to export I get the remark "Not enough memory"

After I have edited an image in Lightroom CC I always export my files to an external hard drive. Lately I get the remark "Not enough memory with every second or third file. Sometimes even with the first file I want to export.
My RAM memory is 4.00 GB and I stil have 3.25 GB available. I have cleaned my C-drive. When I look at the specifications of LR CC I see that there is a fysical memory available of 719 MB, but LR is using more than that, so it is probably using virtual memory. Could that be the problem and how do I solve the problem.
I never have any of this problem with other software.

I have LR 5.3 installed on 2 partitions on the same PC and same HD:
Partition 1 has Win 7 32bit 4GB RAM
Partition 2 has Win 7 64bit 8GB RAM
On the 32bit partition, now that I am using larger raw files from a Nikon D610, I find LR not fit for purpose. I get numerous problems while editing and also get "Not enough memory" when exporting.
On the 64bit partition, everything works as should.
AS I've said before: With image files getting increasingly larger, Adobe are way too optimistic, and dare I say - disingenuous, when stating in their System Requirements: "2GB of RAM (4GB recommended)". This can only lead to dissatisfied customers.
So, as dj_paige says: "The best solution, almost guaranteed to work, is to have both a 64 bit operating system AND 8 GB or more of memory. Upgrading only one or the other probably won't work, you need both."
Works for me!

Your 400GB is not what I was speaking of. I was not speaking of disk space. I was speaking of memory.
The memory in your computer needs to be 8GB or more, and you must have a 64 bit operating system (which can still happen even if your computer is less than 12 months old). What operating system do you have? Is it 32bits or 64bits?

Exporting from Illustrator to Photoshop: Not Enough Memory To Save File

Exporting from Illustrator to Photoshop: Not Enough Memory To Save File
I have plenty of memory (6 GB) and the files I try to export are not very big (some less than 5 MB). Yet, I keep getting the above message: Not Enough Memory To Save File
Any suggestions?
Many thanks!

Up-thread, John Joslin mentioned that "memory" is more than RAM. It is RAM, Virtual Memory, Scratch Disk, and is also governed by the allocations for your Adobe programs (in this case).
The first thing that I would explore is the Windows Virtual Memory (Page File) settings. This ARTICLE might give you some tips.
Also, see this ARTICLE on setting up a computer for an editing session. It's geared more towards doing video editing, but applies to PS work too.
Then, go to Edit>Preferences in both PS and AI, and check the allocation of your memory. Too often, people run that up, and then they starve the OS, or any other programs.
Good luck,
Hunt

Cannot install PPro CS4 - not enough memory????

I am trying to install the trial version of Premire Pro CS4 for evaluation purposes.
For some reason the installer reports that I do not have sufficient memory on the chosen hard drive, which I clearly have. See bottom left hand corner of the screen here:
http://tinypic.com/r/2eekdqu/6
The default drive chosen by the installer is C, which indeed does not have enough space, but the message remain regardless of the drive I change to. I already tried to go back and forward and change the drive selected to see if it will refresh properly, but to no avail.
Any idea how to make this work?
TIA.

Managed to solve the problem...
The problem was that PPro installer installs some shared files into the C drive in addition to installing the application itself to your chosen drive (which could be a different one).
The oversight on the part of the developers of the installer is that the 'not enough memory' warning message during installation corresponds to having not enough memory on either or both the C drive AND your chosen drive. At the same time the installer also gives an indicattion of the amount of memory available and the amount required, but without indication that this only correesponds to your chosen drive.... So, if your drive has enough memory, but the c drive doesn't the installer gives you two conflicting messages...
I now clear some space for the shared files on C, and the warning disappeared and everything installed and ran fine.
Thanks again for the help.

Export Results-Not Enough Memory (1). I need HELP with this please. Using Windows 7 32-bit. Intel i5 4690K CPU 16GB RAM 120 SSD and 1 TB harddrive.

Everytime I go to export a photo, I get an error.
"Export Results: Not enough memory (1)
Using Windows 7 32-bit. Intel i5 4690K CPU 16GB RAM 120 SSD and 1 TB harddrive.

Even though you have 16gb of ram installed, 32 bit Windows can only use 4gb of it so 12gb is wasted. This is the reason you are getting not enough memory errors and is a known problem with Lightroom an 32 bit Windows during export. You need to change to 64 bit Windows.

Error of "Not enough memory for operation" when exporting Crystal Report

Hi,
I am getting errors in Business Objects when I try to export a report from its native Crystal format to PDF (or Word). This is only happening in one of our many reports.
When I try to export within the Business Objects viewer (in Crystal format), then click the "Export this report" button, and select "Adobe Acrobat (PDF) as the File Format, click OK, I get the following error:
CrystalReportViewer
handleCrystalEvent failed
WebReporting.dll error '80004005'
Not enough memory for operation.
/InformationCentral/Viewers/crystal_viewer.asp, line 39
This also occurs if I try to export to PDF within the Crystal Report designer as well, but the error is a bit different:
"Failed to export report" then "Memory Full".
Strange one this is....

Hi Peter,
Could you try to minimize the records in the report by giving some additional conditions? May be like give the date range or select for few regions etc?
Try in such a way so that your report downloads less number of records.
Hope this helps.
Regards,
Rashmi

Export several Fuji X-Trans Files got "Not Enough Memory" Error

When I tried to export several (say 15) Fuji X-Trans files at the same time, I got a "Not Enough Memory" Error. This problem only occurred after after upgrading to Lightroom 4.4. I can now only export a few (3-5) X-Trans files at the same time. Does anyone encounter this problem and know how to fix it?
I am using Windows 7 32-bit with 4GB memory, SSD System drive, and Radeon 7700 Graphics card. For Virtual memory, I set "no paging file" on C drive and "system managed size" on another SSD drive.
Thanks in advance.

One might expect an Export function is single-threaded so the number of files exported wouldn’t matter, but perhaps if you are very close to the limit, memory fragmentation comes into play, where LR is requiring contiguous blocks and there aren’t any big enough. It’s probably time to upgrade to a 64-bit Windows system and start getting used to the Metro interface which isn’t bad as long as your frequently-used programs have tiles on the first screen.
Go to Help / System Info… and see how much memory LR has available. On my 32-bit system with 4GB of RAM installed LR only has 716.8MB available which is typical for 32-bit Windows applications:
Built-in memory: 3327.0 MB
Real memory available to Lightroom: 716.8 MB
Real memory used by Lightroom: 160.5 MB (22.3%)
Virtual memory used by Lightroom: 160.8 MB
Memory cache size: 33.2 MB
You could change your VM settings to allocate a multi-gigabyte minimum pagefile size to see if it makes any difference, in case LR is waiting on the VMM to allocate more and then gives up, but I’d expect LR is requiring actual RAM for processing images, not VM which is much , much slower.
