First time Ive had this problem and I have 3 hard drives with fair space and 8gb ram which is not being fully used. The timeline has an unedited/cut/spliced unrendered 3minute clip on it.

Not enough memory to load the tiff file

I did a search for this problem and there were two threads about it but I can't post to them. I think they are archived. Unfortunately, there was no answer to this problem in there.
The error "not enough memory to load tiff file" has been occuring in our shop on various computers with different resources. I believe that it has happened on our Mac as well. All are running Illustrator CS2 except the Mac which is running Illustrator CS3 and Leopard.
Has there been any progress on what the problem is? Has anyone found a solution that doesn't involve having to resave tif files as other formats to get them into the original Illustrator document? Or a solution that does not involve a huge work around?
I don't know the specs of all the computers in our shop but the one that I'm working on has the following specs:
Pentium 4, 2.8 GHz with 2.5 GB of RAM
Windows XP Pro Version 2002; service pack 3
Any help would be appreciated.
J.

Illustrator CS3 - "Not enough memory to place the file." Help!!!???

I have a new machine running XP Pro 64. Intel i7 processor, 12 gb ram.
I am trying to place a fairly small Photoshop image (with layers) into Illustrator CS3. I have done this countless times with XP 32 bit os.
But now, I cannot place even a small Photoshop image into Illustrator... I keep getting the error "Not enough memory to place the file."
I tried the suggestion of 'right-clicking' the Illy launch icon and going to properties/compatibility and then selecting "Run this program in compatibility mode for..." and then I check marked Windows XP.
Someone else said this worked in Vista 64.....but it DID NOT work for XP 64.....dang it.
Any suggestions???
Thanks

Well..... I just tried the same function on my 64 bit Leopard operating system on my MacBook Pro just for kicks. Worked flawlessly!!
So, why won't it work on XP 64 bit? Is this a case of 'the mac os is just better?"
Talk about flame bait -- You trying to start the platform wars again? ;-D
Can anyone tell me if they can place a Photoshop image from WINDOWS 7 64 bit OS into Illustrator without issue? We're talking 'PLACE' .... not paste.
Don't know about Windoze 7; but that operation works in Vista x64. XP x64 is
quite flaky at times. It was never finished IMHO.
Sure would like to know. I'd upgrade if it made the difference.

Not enough memory to place the file

hi when iam opening photoshop layered files at 300 dpi and having size 6x18 inches illustrator cs3 portable gives error message not enough memory to place the file and file is not opening ???

There's no such thing as an "Illustrator CS3 portable" version. What you have is an illegal torrent download. Any issues you experience may be due to the illegal copying of the software.

Illustrator CS5 Error - "Not enough memory to save the file"

Hey guys,
I'm experiencing difficulties in exporting website from .AI to .PSD using Illustrator CS5.1 under Windows7 Home Premium 64bit. The error message says "Not enough memory to save the file".
I can assure you that i've got enough memory for scratch disks and my computer is powerful enough to handle this operation. The funny thing is that i am able to export the very same .Ai file using Illustrator CS5.1 under Windows XP 32bit on different PC.
I've tried to find a solution online, but it gave no satisfying results so far. So, i think the problem comes from the operating system, but i don't know how to fix it... any suggestions?
Thanks, Steve.

Sad to say I'm running into the same problem with a 40KB file.....

Modify the file slightly:
doubleclick the image
remove the channel 14 info (the text block "14" & "2.484", the T shaped path, the dotted half circle path)
drag a square around the "Channel", "Center Frequency", "(GHz)" text blocks and hold left shift and press the left arrow until the selected items are tighter to the rest of the image
select the bold base line, grab the right middle point to shrink the line (dragging from right to the left) until 'intersect' shows up, then release

Not enough memory to open the illustration error

I have Adobe CS5.
I am running it on a laptop with 4 GB of memory.
Windows 6.1
but when I open the system info in the product, it says I have 3836 MB of memory.
Only Illlustrator is loaded and I cannot open any illustrator files. I cannot even make a blank file.
I get the error message not enough memory to open the illustration.
I have uninstalled and reinstalled this product and it still doesn't work.
I tried the chat after 10 minutes of waiting for help they said they no longer support CS5 please try the phone.
I spent 20 minutes on hold only to find out that phone support is no longer available unless I want to spend $40 for an answer.
I am pretty angry and frustrated.
I have searched my computer for a /etc/launchd.conf file but I cannot find it.
I am stuck please help.

I have searched my computer for a /etc/launchd.conf file but I cannot find it.
That would be Mac only.... Anyway, start by trashing the prefs in the prefs folder:
Important Directories
Beyond that you might consider reinstalling Adobe Reader/ Acrobat. Some of these errors are caused by damaged shared PDf components. if the machine has a specific printer installed, remove it (temporarily) and uninstall its driver. This may also help, if files have stored printer information. Likewise, check your system's color settings and color profile usage. "Bad" profiles can have all sorts of negative influence...

Not Enough memory to open the Illustration

Hi,
I saw in the site http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/832/cpsid_83270.html
that below problem exist. Is that been solved. Is there any alternative way to perform the action.
Error "Not Enough memory to open the Illustration" when opening a placed image InDesign CS4 with Illustrator hidden
Thanks
Karthik B

Firstly, you may apply free to try product, it would repair your problem illustrator file and to import it to new .ai file with saving all content. This tool is named Illustrator Repair Toolbox. Prove it for free from here: http://www.illustrator.repairtoolbox.com/
This solution from adobe blog
Make Illustrator visible.
This issue appears only on Mac OS 10.6.x. The error message sometimes occurs when you drag files from the Finder to the Illustrator icon in the dock. The error can also occur when you right-click an Illustrator SmartObject in Photoshop and choose Edit Contents.
As ultimate measure you have to upgrade your MAC OS.

Not enough memory to initialize the system??

Hi,
I am trying to write a little MIDlet but have experienced some trouble with starting the MIDlet. I use the phone S55 and the MIDlet has about 12KB.
There are about 9 displayables all extending List but one, which is just a string item. All runs fine up to that time, but then when I add two other displayables each including one text filed in order to add and save some info in a recordstore (the record store is even commented out) the mobile just show the message "please wait" and runs for some minutes. Once it also showed the message "not enough memory to initialize the system". But that can`t be because of two new displayables with text fields, can`t.
I appreciate any help.
Thx

It actually really seams, that the problem occures as soon as I create an Object:
private SaveLP saveLP = new SaveLP();
and the Class looks like this:
import javax.microedition.lcdui.*;
public class SaveLicencePlate extends Form implements CommandListener {
private LicencePlate licencePlate = new LicencePlate();
private TextField textField1;
/**Construct the displayable*/
public SaveLicencePlate() {
super("Car Licence Plate");
try {
jbInit();
} catch(Exception e) {
e.printStackTrace();
/**Component initialization*/
private void jbInit() throws Exception {
// set up this Displayable to listen to command events
textField1 = new TextField("", "", 15,TextField.ANY);
textField1.setLabel("Neues Autokennzeichen");
textField1.setMaxSize(10);
setCommandListener(this);
addCommand(new Command("Zur�ck", Command.EXIT, 1));
addCommand(new Command("Save", Command.OK, 1));
this.append(textField1);
/**Handle command events*/
public void commandAction(Command command, Displayable displayable) {
if (command.getCommandType() == Command.EXIT) {
MIDlet1 midlet = MIDlet1.getInstance();
Display.getDisplay(midlet).setCurrent(licencePlate);
}else if (command.getCommandType() == Command.OK){
I mean, I wrote MIDlets before and never had a problem with a textField. Or do you see anything else that has the mistake?

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:
https://www.google.ca/webhp?sourceid=chrome-instant&ion=1&espv=2&ie=UTF-8#q=There+is+not+enough+memory+to+complete+the+operation.+To+free+up+available+memory%2C+close+programs%2C+projects%2C+or+windows+you+aren't+using%2C+and+then+try+again.
And 193K results on Bing:

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.

Hello Pushtheriver,
After reviewing your post, I have located an article that can help in this situation. It contains a number of troubleshooting steps and helpful advice concerning iCloud storage issues:
Get help using iCloud storage
This may also help:
Understanding iOS device capacity
You can sync and download many different types of content on your device. Some types of content (such as music and videos) typically take more space than others (such as notes and books). The amount of space taken by an app depends on the app's purpose; complex or graphically intense apps usually take more space than simpler apps.
If your device is near its capacity, you can remove some of the less used content to make room for more.

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!
Best regards,

There is not enough memory available on the Essbase Administration Server to open this outline

When I am trying to open outline it is showing the below error-
"There is not enough memory available on the Essbase Administration Server to open this outline"
Please advise what can be the reason and how can we solve them?
I checked the earlier post https://forums.oracle.com/message/4434719 and JVMOption is set with the current maximum size of the JVM e.g. -Xmx512m. Still we are receiving the error. Could you please help?

Thanks John for the reply.
Couple of things
1) We use Block Storage Outline. Does it matter while compacting the outline using ESSCMDQ?
2) At the moment the JVM is set to -Xmx512m. Should we increase from 512 to 1024 or what is recommended.
We are doing ESSBASE 7.1.3 to 11.x (11.1.2.2) migration (AS IT IS migration) and we are facing this problem. Quite strange that we didn't get any memory error version 7.x whereas we are getting error in 11.x My understanding is that the current ESSBASE server has 6 GB RAM and in all ways it has higher capacity than server 7.x. But not sure why we are getting this strange error.
Is it possible to check the JVM size in ESSBASE 7.1.3 (or where we need to check the memory size).
Thanks in advance.
Satheesh.

MS Project Professional 2010 - Configuration Failure - There is not enough memory to complete the operation

Windows 7 64, MS Office Pro 2010 installed add working - 4 gig of memory 500 gig + of free disk space. I get the below results when trying to start project the first time.
Tried usual admin rights stuff and turning off norton and firewall. Same results after re-install, restart,
repair, you know all the usual.
Note I borrowed the steps below from another thread that was never answered.
http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/office/forum/office_2010-project/ms-project-crash-after-configuring/e6c67a84-5749-4b19-8cbd-562189d9785c
1. Microsoft Project Professionnal 2010 popup: Configuration Progress splash screen with progress bar and yellow wave at bottom.
2. Microsoft Office Project MUI (English) 2010 popup: Please wait while Windows configures Microsoft Office Project MUI (English) 2010, then disappears.
3. Microsoft Project 2010 logo popup with green wave at bottom.
4. Steps 1-3 repeated 3 times.
5. Microsoft Project popup: There is not enough memory to complete the operation. To free up available memory, close programs, projects, or windows you aren't using, and try again.

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 :
