Out of Ram for cropping

I only have 8gb of ram. But as I track it's use (in an HD 1920x1080 timeline), I find I get Out of Ram messages upon rendering multiple layers of FCP-cropped 2500x2000 RGB jpeg stills. I tried it uncropped and got no error. But ram usage shows no more 5.5 gig of ram. Am I really using more ram than it's showing? Would I be able to perform these feats if I had 12 gb RAM? I seems very sensitive to this type of work.

FCP is a 32 bit application which limits the amount of RAM it can address to 4 GB (2.5 for FCP and 1.5 for related frameworks) Of this 2.5 GB for FCP, you can change the distribution and allocate more for still images. Keep in mind, this is a fixed pool so if you allocate more for stills, you remove it from other uses within the program.
The settings to adjust the memory allocation in FCP can be found in System Settings>Memory & Cache
With more than 4GB of ram in the machine, your Application Use should be 100%. If you are running a lot of larger stills, you might want to bump up the Still Cache an additional 10% -20% or so and see how things run.
Good luck,

Photoshop 2014 is always running out of ram

I have 1 TB of SS memory in my machine and photoshop is telling me I am out of ram. I can't do any image larger than 1024 x 1024. I specified my hard drives as backup and increased the memory size to max.
Still can't work on any large images.
My old machine had only 250 Gigs of SS memory and it would do any size of image just fine.
thanks,
Julian

Maxing out on RAM

Hey
My old powerbook came with 128, I added 512 to start then exchanged that with a 1gig so it was running on 1.128. No problem at all. Spec said max was 640.
I now have the macbook pro 2.16 C2D 15.4 screen. It came with a removable gig ram and I had a gig from my previous MBP. However - I feel 2gig is not enough. This MBP says it can only do 3gig ram. Recent models can do 4. I'm wondering if anyone has maxed out the ram on a 3gig version and run it on 4.
I'm thinking of pullng out both 1gigs and sticking 2x2gig in it. Just want to make sure it is possible.
Appreciate any help.

Hi,
one benefit of 2x2GB is that you still have the 'pairing' advantage of some small percentage more speed when the memory is accessed.
And secondly, if you decide to get a Santa Rosa MBP in the future you can use this memory for it.
Other than that, you are right, not much use.
Have Fun

I used to use PS7 then upgraded everything including computers. Now I get out of ram errors all the time. Not Happy!! Ideas?

I used to be able to minipulate huge photoshop files.
Now I can't even get one to go from 20 to 50 gig!
All I get is this out of ram error.
I have a 400G scratch disk and well over optimum on all settings!
NOT HAPPY!!

It would be necessary that you have to use "Adobe Creative Suite Cleaner Tool". (see Use the CC Cleaner Tool to solve installation problems | CC, CS3-CS6 )
The order varies depending on your individual needs:
1. Maybe you have to activate/deactivate, so please have a look there:
http://helpx.adobe.com/x-productkb/policy-pricing/activation-deactivation-products.html
2. Sometimes, we know in the meantime, the "opm.db file" is the culprit. In this case you should delete it.
3. Did you already try "uninstalling and re-installing"? Be careful with (de)installing aso. by (de)installing by your own resources. As much as I regret it and as strange as it may seem I fear it's a challenge for Adobe's Creative Cloud Cleaner Tool. Sometimes - for whatever reasons - CC doesn't "want" to work. In this case you should CC completely delete and reinstall by help of Adobe Creative Cloud Cleaner Tool. (A try to uninstall by own resources is not enough!)
I quote: Adobe Creative Suite Cleaner Tool helps resolve installation problems for Adobe Creative Cloud and Adobe Creative Suite (CS3-CS6) applications. The tool removes installation records for prerelease installations of Creative Cloud or Creative Suite applications. It does not affect existing installations of previous versions of Creative Cloud or Creative Suite applications.
Please use: http://helpx.adobe.com/creative-suite/kb/cs5-cleaner-tool-installation-problems.html and follow the prescribed sequence of operations

How can i allocate more RAM for my onboard video card on a 2011 macbook pro 13 inch running windows 7 via bootcamp

I noticed that since Macbooks.. macs in general use an EFI instead of BIOS. . .. Now i need to allocate some more RAM for the onboard video card since its currently running with an estimated 50mb.. I would like to increase this to 512 and cut the 3.95 down to 3.5 MB for the rest of the system ( allowing me to run more graphic intensive games and the such ... ) I know this could slow down the entire system.. ( i am aware of this ) and have gotten a 3rd party application to control and close out uneeded processes during gaming.. I just need more ram for my onboard video card.. Any help?

You don't allocate more RAM towards your video card, you put more RAM into the machine and hopefully some machines will bump the CPU graphics RAM allocation up a little.
The problem is you bought a integrated only graphics computer, if you want to 3D game you need a dedicated graphics computer with it's own or dedicated VRAM.
If your this serious about 3D gaming, your on the wrong platform.
Get a Windows 7 64bit i7 8GB RAM expandable 3D gaming tower with a good power supply and video card upgrade path, this way every few years you buy and stick in a new video card to play the latest games.
Mac's are not gaming machines and never will be because they would last too long if we could upgrade them.

Fastest Compatable DDR RAM For 648 MAX?

I've been reading about all these problems people have been having concerning RAM/motherboard combinations, and have concluded that my RAM is what is causing my problems (XP/2000 installation difficulties, unrecognizable Gainward GF4 Ti4200 card, boot up problems). Right now, I have one Kingston Hyper X 512MB DDR434 RAM (which is going out the door soon) installed on my 648 MAX.
I originally thought the video card problem was BIOS related because the only thing recommended by XP was to update the BIOS (said motherboard does not support your video card's features; try updating your BIOS). I tried that through LiveUpdate, and it messed up somehow during the flash, so I tried to restore the original BIOS, but the system was very unstable after that. I'm about to send my motherboard back for an exchange. I just found out by reading some posts here that other people have been having the same problem with a similar RAM/video card setup.
Also, I'm having extreme difficulty installing Win2000. It installed the first time on a test HDD, but on my new one (WD 80GB 7200RPM ATA100), it wouldn't go in at all. ;( It went up to the final file copying part (after entering the serial number), and crashed. It kept doing that, so I gave up and moved on to XP. XP went in fine the first time, but it wouldn't reinstall after that, even with a reformatted drive. Other people are having similar problems, and said that once they swapped out their RAM, their problems were gone.
I'm just looking for the fastest compatible 512MB DDR RAM available for the 648. Thanks.

Heh, funny thing, I was messing around with some BIOS settings, and somehow got my computer to work this afternoon! 8o Reinstalled everything, and was having a good ol time! :D
Then, and even funnier thing happened. I went out this evening, and when I came back, the computer wouldn't work anymore! X( This thing is driving me nuts. I'm definitely gonna pick up either the Corsair or Winbond memory ASAP. Thanks for the replys everyone!
BTW, I've had the hard drive by itself with the jumperless setting from the beginning. Also, it always wants to be the primary drive, even when it's set to slave and attached at the slave connector on the IDE cable. ?( I know that isn't a problem right now cause I just have it by itself on the cable.

Bought ram for Macbook 4,1 and wont boot up

Hey guys i just bought some new ram to upgrade my macbook 2.1 Ghz Intel Core 2 Duo running Snow Leopard 10.6.8 and it says its the right ram for it but it doesnt boot up. the RAM i bought is 2GB PC5300/667Mhz DDR2. i bought 2 modules to equal 4GB and it doesnt boot. i tried one stick, both sticks, one new and one old, still nothing. the disk drive runs but thats all. So either i got bad ram or they labled it wrong? What can i do besides return it?

If you bought your RAM at a place that also sells PC RAM you may have gotten mislabelled RAM. PCs can handle different RAM speeds so they’ll often label higher speed RAM as a lower speed rather than make two different speeds of RAM. But Macs are much more picky. They require a RAM stick to be exactly 667mhz not 675mhz or 800mhz. The way to tell is to put one of your old RAM sticks in and it will force the new RAM to run at the correct speed.
This is from one review of PNY RAM:
"These modules are actually 800Mhz. PNY no longer makes or sells 667Mhz modules. Not all computers that require 667Mhz are compatible with 2 800Mhz modules. They refuse to down clock properly. This is especially true with a number of Core 2 Duo MacBooks. Spoke to PNY support, they flat out told me that yes, they sell 800Mhz modules in 667Mhz packaging. If you RMA a module that is 667Mhz (or supposed to be 667Mhz) they will replace it with an 800Mhz module as they no longer have any 667Mhz SODIMMs, not even for RMA replacement!"
These are good online stores for Mac compatible RAM
OWC 667Mhz RAM
http://eshop.macsales.com/shop/memory/MacBook/DDR2/ - They offer Mac tested RAM at very good prices.
Crucial Memory http://www.crucial.com/ - good place to buy RAM from all over the world. They also have an excellent memory selector that allows you to choose memory based on your computer's model
Data Memory Systems http://www.datamemorysystems.com/apple-memory.asp - another good, cheap place to buying RAM if you live in the U.S.

Photoshop out of ram error message

I have 32 Gigs of ram and two SS hard drives for memory backup. I am constantly getting error messages that say Photoshop is out of ram and can't continue.
Is there a bug in the latest release.
thanks,
Julian

How much free scratch space can Photoshop get check your Photoshop Preferences Performance settings when you get that message. I have seen PS use nearly 200GB. You can see in my setting there are still 270GB free of top of the 4 GB CC currently using with no open documents in CC 2014.

What Exactly are the Benefits of More GPU RAM for PP, AE, PS ?

What benefit is there to having, say 4gb GPU RAM over 2gb ?
I have read numerous conflicting, and perhaps misguided, claims regarding when/why one would rather have a graphics card with more than 2gb RAM.
Does this impact effects render, multiple monitor resolution, CUDA, Mercury Playback Engine performance, other areas, etc. and how?
Thanks for your response.

2GB of video ram is more than enough for the Hardware MPE engine and 1080 media with effects. Essentially the greater the ram space on the video card the greater ram caching available for the Cuda acceleration to buffer data ready for GPU processing. The Application memory management ie caching profiles though effect this based on each codec and resolution ie data per frame. However along with this you have to have enough system ram to create the buffers used to cache the data down to the GPU ram since that data shadows down for GPU processing and then back again for final encoding. This means that not configuring enough system ram will limit the amount of GPU ram used. Hence why you want atleast 16GB of ram for HD and the hardware MPE engine. 3GB+ ram spaces on video cards are for 2K to 4K + frame sizes ie R3D and Raw/CinemaDng. This is because the data per frame multiplies significantly when at 4K resolution. This require far greater ram space which is why you look for the 3GB+ ram space cards for those workflows. The Effect data will also increase because there is far mroe resolution data to alter. This is on top of the drawing out data which is what you see on the screen. That is when the differences for the cards show.

Cheaper RAM for iMac G5

I was searching and searching for cheap RAM for my iMac. It seems most places sale RAM for Macintosh computers but charge up the butt for it. Mac comps, or atleast the iMac G5, use what should be cheaper CAS3 memory. While searching I found most places were selling 1GB sticks of "Mac" RAM for $130 or more. I found the memory configurator on Patriot Memory's website and found this model stick of 1GB RAM to be compatible with the iMac G5 2Ghz, PSD1G400. I got two pieces shipped for $212 (not from Patriot but a reseller). I found most other websites' memory configurator will have a 1GB stick of "Mac" RAM and then another stick of 1GB CAS3 RAM for alot cheaper but wouldn't confirm the 1GB CAS3 RAM as compatible for Mac. These websites also would not list the specs of the "Mac" RAM. Who knows. The "Mac" RAM might be the same as the other RAM but they just want to sell it for more. I haven't recieved my 2 sticks of RAM yet but I'll keep everyone posted on how it turns out.

Mac-specific RAM was available in recent months for the same price that you have quoted. Apparently RAM prices, both generic and Mac-specific, have risen since then. Prices will fall at some point in the future. I have tried generic RAM in my iMac G5 and had no problem with it. I got a nice sized rebate when I bought it. Some others have claimed to have had problems with generic RAM, however.

Photoshop 2014 keeps running out of ram and I am losing my work.

When I save a PSD file I get the message "out of ram and cannot save", or cannot clone, use brush, etc. because out of ram. This is when I first open photoshop too.
I have a new machine with 32 gigs of ram and 1 terrabyte SS memory. Scratch disks are pointed to my hard drive and two external drives.
I have had Photoshop older versions on much smaller machines in the past and never run out of ram. This is a bug in photoshop 2014 - no one has been able to fix it so far.
I am losing work and time when I have deadlines to make. Photoshop is becoming worthless - I am going to use gimp.......

That is blatant user error. If you have other drives, UNCHECK your boot drive as a scratch disk.
The rule of thumb I follow to figure out scratch space says to figure on 50 to 100 times the size of your largest file ever multiplied by the number of files you have open. I have seen the scratch file exceed 800 GB once, an admittedly rare occurrence, but it often exceeds 200 GB when stitching large panoramas and the like.
As an example—and stressing that I'm aware that others have even more scratch space than I do—I keep two dedicated, physically separate hard drives as my primary and secondary Photoshop scratch disks and a lot of GB free on my boot drive for the OS which is not checkedlisted as a scratch disk in Photoshop Preferences.. I also have 16 GB of RAM installed.
Additionally, if you only have a single HD, i.e. your boot drive, you'd need it to be large enough to accommodate both the swap files of the OS as well as Photoshop's scratch.

Need 4GB RAM for 2010 27 "computer where to buy it?

I need 2 4GB RAM for 2010 27 "computer where to buy it?

I installed exactly the combination you are considering in my 21.5 inch i-Mac a couple of weeks ago. I bought it from OWC based on comments and recommendations on this forum (and the fact that they are close to me as I was thinking of picking it up to save delivery time). As it turns out I had it sent, the RAM arrived the next day and I installed it in 10 minutes and it runs and performs perfectly.

Workflow for cropping video from UHD to full HD

I have some GoPro 4K (3840x2160) UHD video that I wish to crop to full HD (1920x1080) using Premiere Pro CC 2014.2. My aim is to incorporate the cropped video into a project that contains nothing but full HD video. I’m aware that cropping is throwing away a lot of the original video information, but that’s’ exactly what I want.
I’m not sure how to go about doing this. For example, prior to cropping, do I create a sequence that matches the original GoPro 4K footage and place the GoPro video in that sequence, or create a sequence that is equal to the finished video resolution (in my case 1920x1080) and place the original GoPro video in there?
I’d also like to know how best to use the warp stabilizer effect in conjunction with the cropping. Should I warp stabilize the 4K video and then crop, stabilize the cropped video (which would introduce some scaling), or maybe crop to some intermediate resolution, and warp stabilize that first (I’m thinking this may reduce processing time)?
I've never attempted cropping before, so I’d really appreciate if someone could give me an idea on the workflow for cropping and stabilizing, or any tips to get me started.
Thanks in advance,
Steve

I think I’ve managed to achieve what I’m after. As you quite rightly say, I need a nested sequence. What I’ve done is create the sequence at full 3840x2160 resolution. I’ve then set the crop size to 50% (which gives me my intended output resolution of 1920x1080). At this point, I'm actually working on only 1/4 of the original frame. I have my little crop box floating around in a sea of black in the context of how much of the original frame I'm intending to discard.
I’ve then keyframed the crop to allow me to move it around and follow the action within the video that I want to focus on.
After that, I enable the zoom option within crop effects settings, and finally, export the video at 1920x1080.
As far as I can ascertain, I’ve ended up with a 1920x1080 resolution video cropped out of the 3840x2160, and because I started with such a high resolution video to begin with, the part I’ve actually wanted to keep is at full HD with no loss of quality.
I now need to figure out how to apply warp stabilization for best results. I have a number of ideas on this but need to experiment to see how it turns out.

How much RAM for Final Cut Studio 2?

I am running a two year old dual G5 with 2G RAM installed. I will be editing a feature length documentary this summer shot on HDV. 2G is the recommened amount of RAM on the FCS2 website but I was wondering if I should install the maximum on my computer which is a total of 4G. I know more is better but is that overkill with something that won't require much effect work such as a documentary? I may make use of the new Color app but I won't be using much Motion. I have a tight budget and don't want to spend extra money if I don't have to.
Thanks,
Brandon

The website says 4GB for HD Editing in uncompressed mode.
Also minimums are always just that, minimums.
I normally try to beat the mins by at least 50% to 100%.
So figure 3 GB RAM for it to work without causing you to want to throw it out the window.
For uncompressed HD, 5 or 6GB to make you happy.
I think I have 4 or 6 GB on my Mac Pro, but I can certainly justify adding another GB (if apple wouldn't charge $1500!!! for 4 GB I'd get 4 GB <tic>)
