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

Why am I always running out of RAM?
For a pair of weeks now I have been doing all I am capable to understand the problem I have been experiencing. The language and terminology if my issue is somewhat foreign to me, but here is my best explanation.
On my Mac Pro 8-core 2.8 GHz tower with 8 GB of RAM I am finding myself running very few operations but end up in a situation where I can visibly see my performance bogging down as if I am out of RAM.
So I have been running activity monitor and what I am seeing is 40 MB of "Free" RAM with 630 MB "Wired", 2.5 GB "Inactive" and about 5 GB of "Active".
I understand some of the basics of what these terms mean. Here is one thing I am 100% certain: after a reboot I start with a massive majority of "Free" or "Green Colored Pie Section" of RAM and when this is happening, my performance is fantastic. Whenever I have a few GB's of RAM, I never complain about my performance.
Here is something I am almost 100% certain of: when my performance is poor or lacking, I notice two things that I find alarming: 1) I have under 100MB of "Free" RAM and 2) 50-60% of the RAM pie is colored yellow indicating "Active".
I am using very common applications and even when I quit all of my applications (except activity monitor) the active RAM is still dominating my 'pie'.
That's the best I can do for now, any help is appreciated.
Thanks,

Both "Free" and "Inactive" are (supposed to be) available for use by any process that wants it.
When you first start up, most memory is, of course, "Free." As apps or system processes need memory, that's where OSX gets it. When they release it, however, it does not go back to Free, but to "Inactive" and is identified with the last process that used it. This is done to speed up assigning it back to the previous process if it requests it (which of course is quite common).
So as time passes, you'll see less and less Free memory and more and more Inactive memory; this means your Mac is working properly. In fact, after running for a long time, if there's much Free memory left, it is, in a sense, wasted!
The thing to watch for is Paging. If the "Page outs" figure is high, or changing rapidly, then OSX is having to page stuff out because it's out of both Free and Inactive memory.
A better way to monitor page-outs is via a Terminal command. (The Terminal app is in your Applications/Utilities folder.) Enter the following, exactly as shown, at the prompt:
sar -g 60 10
Leave the terminal window open, then try to re-create the unresponsive problem.
This should tell you if you are doing pageouts. You'll see a line in the Terminal window every 60 seconds for 10 minutes (or until you quit Terminal), showing the number of pageouts per second. A few pageouts is normal. If you have large numbers of pageouts, then you have a memory problem. -
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.......jlnsvfx wrote:

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. -
Keep running out of RAM!! (even with 12GBs of it)
I work on some complex maps with lots of lines and vertices and lables, etc... so basically a lot of
stuff. the maps themselfs are about 30MB-60MB so not really that huge either. and the are all vector-based
I keep upgrading our computer and adding more and more memory and still I keep getting this "Can't complete operation, out or RAM" or soemthing to that effect when I do big oprations (large copy/paste, moving complex groups, etc...)
I use Illustrator CS4.
Windows XP 64-Bit (2003, SP 2)
Intel Core i7 920 (2.67 GHz)
12 GB of RAM
I continue to add more and more power but yet still run out of RAM
Is there something i'm missing? I researched the internet to see if there is a setting or something, but found nothing.
Should I keep adding more memory or am I waiting my money?
Should I try installing Windows 7 64bit?
Should I wait for CS5?
What else?
Hope you can help!Should I try installing Windows 7 64bit?
Yes, that might help. While you are still bound to the limitations of any 32bit app (simple computer math sets the 4GB memory ceiling, minus operating system requirements etc.), stability and reliability may improve greatly.
Should I wait for CS5?
You could, you could not. You could just assume it is more stable because on a general level, more bugs have been fixed, but I wouldn't hold my breath for a 64bit version. Officially only After Effects, Premiere Pro and Photoshop have been announced as being "64bit native"...

I'm using AEcs3 and doing a roto. As I work, it "seems" like it's running out of RAM. At first I thought it was coz iTunes was open; closed it. Then it would happen again, I thought it was my Wacom tablet; unplug & plug, made sure it was updated to latest driver. It would still happen, so I reboot, flash the PRAM and have no programs opening and only using the mouse. When iTunes was on, the music would skip, like a CD. With nothing running except AE, then the mouse stops working and turns black, no beach ball, then I have control again. I even shutoff nucleo Pro. I don't know if this is an AE issue or an OS issue. This is the first time I've seen this. Any ideas?
Well, it needs to render the paint strokes and depending on their number, this can indeed cause massive RAM consumption, as they are vector-based. Therefore you may wanna pre-render the sections you already have and start with a "clean slate" on the rest of them. It will take some more effort to manage the various versions, but should make working easier. Also do not forget to purge the Undo list and RAM previews regularly, this may also help.

Is anyone else having problems running out of RAM following an upgrade to Mavericks and Server v3?
I recently upgraded to Mavericks on my iMac which was also running Server v2. Following the upgrade to Mavericks I upgraded to Server v3 and have been suffering from constant errors where the computer complains that I have run out of RAM and suspends all applications until I restart the computer. I cannot work out how to turn off or delete the Server and therefore cannot isolate the problem to OS X or Server.
Is anybody else experiencing the problem? I am quite happy to delete the server running on the iMac as I only installed for experimental purposes and only really use it as a caching server at the moment.
Any help gratefully received.Please read this whole message before doing anything.
This procedure is a diagnostic test. It’s unlikely to solve your problem. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
The purpose of this exercise is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party system modifications that load automatically at startup or login. Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards. Boot in safe mode* and log in to the account with the problem. The instructions provided by Apple are as follows:
Be sure your Mac is shut down.
Press the power button.
Immediately after you hear the startup tone, hold the Shift key. The Shift key should be held as soon as possible after the startup tone, but not before the tone.
Release the Shift key when you see the gray Apple icon and the progress indicator (looks like a spinning gear).
*Note: If FileVault is enabled under OS X 10.7 or later, or if a firmware password is set, you can’t boot in safe mode.
Safe mode is much slower to boot and run than normal, and some things won’t work at all, including wireless networking on certain Macs.
The login screen appears even if you usually log in automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin.
Test while in safe mode. Same problem(s)?
After testing, reboot as usual (i.e., not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of the test. -
HT1688 my iphone5 is always running out of battery what should i do?
My iphone5 is always running out of battery do you have any recommendation as to what I can look and see what's causing this.
Considering the iOS 6.1.4 update was intended only to fix Wi-Fi issues with the iPhone 5, I would immagine these battery issues were brought on by that patch making your phone more aware of Wi-Fi signals and checking them more often, draining the battery when you are out mostly. I would recommend that you turn off Wi-Fi whenever you are going to be somewhere without Wi-Fi for a long period of time. Otherwise, your phone will be constantly checking the area around it for all the singals it can get. The opposite goes for when you are at home. When you are on a Wi-Fi network and using it, it is much more battery efficient that cellular. Staying consious of swapping betwwen Wi-Fi on and off will be the biggest saver in your case.
Thank you for choosing Apple. -
I am running a late 2013 iMac with 3.5 GHz Intel Core i7. I have 16 GBs of Ram but it still seems lacking sometimes.
And by that I mean I may go to add an attachment to an e-mail and it hangs for a few seconds. And the same tends to happen when saving almost any form of doc including text docs. It's nothing dramatic just a tad frustrating.
I do have a tendency to leave multiple apps open including processor hoggers like Screenflow and Fuze meeting. I will also probably have Spotify, Chrome and Firefox, Skype, Mac Mail, Echofon for Twitter, iTunes, Pages, Word and Excel, Calendar and Preview open at the same time.
I know this is a lot but for the most part I need them. Am I simply running out of Ram when it slows and would 32 GB make a big difference?
ThanksThat's normal. With Mavericks it wants to use as much of the memory as possible. It's the memory pressure and amount of swap files that you need to look at:
As long as the memory pressure is constant and there's no Swap used you shouldn't worry. The OS will free up what's needed for any new app that is launched. More about compressed memory and memory management with Mavericks can be found here: https://www.apple.com/osx/advanced-technologies/ -
RAM: I Keep Running Out of RAM!

Is it possible to store txt message history on the memory card? - Always running out of txt storage space on my phone. I've never gotten close to being able to store 300 messages as indicated on pg 58 of the manual, so I must be missing something.
I might get 35 or 40 and then get storage limit warningsA_Ohmstede,
I know it can be frustrating seeing that inbox get full and having to delete
stored messages. I do see in the Samsung manual where it advises that it
will store a maximum of 300 messages on the phone. The number may lower
if there are pictures messages and other things being stored on the device.
Have you checked your total Memory available in Settings and Tools? How much is
currently available? Please let us know these details and we may be able

The first two I said okay that can happen, but now this is the 3rd ink I have had to refill the printer. It just won't print even it is low.
I rarely print and the printer is always out of ink! I heard it evaporates, but that just is crazy! I have spent over$60 in ink to have it run out in about 10 prints!
What can I do?Welcome back to the HP Community @sipefan ,
I saw your posts about the low ink level issue you've been experiencing with your Officejet 6600, and I have some suggestions that might help. I think the issue just may be internal, such as the ink system not functioning properly however, I very well could be wrong! I posted two links below for you to see, the first link is for print quality problems. From that guide, I would suggest trying HP cartridges, aligning the printhead, and cleaning the printhead mainly. When you check the print settings, try using Fast Draft to use less ink when you print too, which will help save on ink usage.
Tip: Make sure the printer is plugged in directly to the wall outlet, avoiding power bars and surge protectors. This ensures the printer is receiving full power, and might help with the ink problem!
If you have tried my suggestions and the ink situation does not improve at all, please consider giving us a call directly to see what your printer options are. I will leave contact information below for you.

C6380 Printer's always running out of ink. Is there a way to check printer use history?
c6380 printer always seem to run out of ink. Is there any way to check printer use history. No one owns up to using it much, but we also seem to run through paper. Maybe the pets are secretly using it?
Hi - This may not be exactly what you're looking for but the Extended Self-Test page does provide a page count. It doesn't give you a history of when pages were printed, but it will at least tell you have many pages have been printed overall.
Hope that helps.

Serious Issue: I keep running out of RAM!
Hey guys, it feels like my Mac Mini with 8GB of RAM is constantly running low on RAM.
I've done everything I can: I've closed apps I'm not using and run the 'sudo purge' command in Terminal multiple times.
'Kernel_Task' is currently using 3.26GB of 'Real Mem' in 'Activity Monitor'! How can I make this use less RAM?
I thought about wiping the Mac Mini HDD and installing a clean install of Mavericks, but that'd take too much time to get my Mac to how I like it.
Will the new release of Yosemite help me?Here's the report:

Useing digitizer, running out of ram!
Im currently working on somthing where i will need to take one solid second of data on two channels without missing any data points and going at a rate of 20Ms/S on my digitizer, and as well, one channel going at 200Ks/S on my daq (they are both in sync). After this read I will need to analyze the data in full, and as well as sort and do other things with it. The problem is LabView is telling me that im running out of memory, and as well at the same time I have windows telling me its low on virtual memory, this is not a good thing. Right now i have a PXI-8176 with 128MB of memory. I know this isnt a lot, but I was wondering if upgrading to the 512MB should most likley take care of this problem, and if not, if it were just to speed m
y system up, what way could i go about taking this data and useing it. I would be able to analyze it in chunks if I needed to, but the one thing I cant do is allow gaps of time to pass while the aquisition is taking place. Please let me know what thoughts you have and what differnt approaches I should take, or mabye if the ram upgrade should do it.
Thank you very much!
Mark WiesbockMark,
I would like to ensure that your digitizer can keep that amount of data in its onboard memory long enough to transfer it back to your 8176. The rates you are mentioning could overload the PCI bus bandwidth and give you an error on the card side.
As far as the computer goes:
If you are keeping everything in memory in your programming environment, the extra 384MB should give you plenty of room to store this data in RAM.
Hope this helps,

Since the upgrade to snow leopard i've been having some weird stuff going on with my memory. I use istat for monitoring and i keep noticing that my memory keeps running out. When i restart the computer i usually have about 3.2gb free ram, but once i start using safari and itunes, free memory seems to be going down by it's own. After few hours it reaches 0 levels and then the page outs and swap starts to show up. Safari seems to be using the most memory, about 350mb, and when you add up all the programs i comes no were close to 3gb of ram. If I don't restart the computer after a day or 2 , swap goes up to 1 GB... why?? I'm not running any programs... whats going on? I never had this problem before snow leopard... Anyone experiencing something similar?
One of the things that seems to be the issue with Safari is Flash. Flash just starts running away. One way to deal with your issue is to install ClicktoFlash;
http://rentzsch.github.com/clicktoflash/
"ClickToFlash is a WebKit plug-in that prevents automatic loading of Adobe Flash content. If you want to see the content, you can opt-in by clicking on it or adding an entire site to the whitelist."
The other thing is iFreeMem;
http://www.activata.co.uk/ifreemem/
"iFreeMem... Free system memory for better application performance. A quick and easy alternative to either a reboot or RAM upgrade to get defragmented free memory."
