Problems with Memory on upgrading

Problems with Memory. I Dide not hace space to upgrade. Now i do, but It still cancels for lack of space

Actually, your problem does not sound like memory, but hard drive space. By default, you lose 10% of your drive to the OS and formatting. To tell how much hard drive space you have go to:
>Finder
>At the bottom of finder in the gray bar it will tell you how much space you have available on your hard drive.
Your hard drive should be no more than 85% full! If it is, delete, get a larger hard drive, remove items to an external drive.
GarageBand only needs 1.2 MB of space.
In order to use GarageBand, some additional content is required. If you do not already have the content installed, it must be downloaded.
Make more disk space available by moving some of your files to a different disk (such as an external hard disk or a USB flash drive), or by deleting files you don't need and then emptying the Trash

  • Strange problems with memory dimms(Banks) in imac 27in mid2010

    Hello dear Apple community. I had a really strange problem with memory dimms(modules anyway)
    I have one really good imac 27in with i7 but as you know after some years the lcd screen became yellowish and cloudy
    So i decided to clean it as i have some knowledge and i did that to others lcd screens with success.
    OK so after successfully cleaning and working like new ( i mean not the external screen with magnets but the lcd internally)i started it.
    Before dismantling my memory was 16gb ( 4x4 dimms)
    After starting it a strange problem arise without any reason! Memory reduced TO 8 GB!!!! memory banks on the right as we seeing it didnt worked at all
    and it was not from dimms because i swapped them..!!!
    So after a lot of thinking and asking tech guys to take a second opinion all the saying (including me that logic board failed for some strange reason.
    Some days before i installed CCleaner and also Onyx because after a lot of installations and uninstallations my mac became a little sluggish..
    I thought that some serious preferences files removed or some hardware settings deleted with Onyx ( is very good and powerful program that can fix the pc and also destroy it in a second) so i removed and reset all preferences. But nothing changed.. So i put a new hard drive and reinstall OXS to see if something can change.
    After formating HD to appleHFS+ saw system profiler that still couldn't see all banks(16gb). I remove logic board and i put another processor i7 that i have as a back up and still nothing( some saying that only these 2 things must be faulty if memory banks not working , processor an logic board and sometimes reinsatlling OS can fix it as i mentioned before. But still nothing...
    So from my nerves and after so much testings and no sleeping for 2 days as it was working i pulled off the memory modules from the right bank i put them again ( off course nothing changed) and i close it. After i restarted it like a miracle finally i saw that i have again 16gb in system profiler!!
    Tech guys here please give me an explanation to this because i gooing crazy! What happened and after i pulled off the dimms while it was working the problem fixed?? It is not recomended at all this action. I forgot to mention that i did Apple hardware test and nothing found..
    Sorry for long post.

    Okay great news...  My memory problems are solved and my Mac Mini is now running at 8 gigs of Ram. I tried the suggested DD3 1333 which  the computer wouldn't even recognize.
    So after visiting the Apple Store in the Fair Oaks VA shopping mall; they suggested that I try DDR3 8500 ram.    I visited Micro Center in Vienna VA, and I purchased BGreg's Suggested Crucial Brand Ram.  10 minutes after I got home the Mac Mini booted on the 1st try with 8 gigs of Ram.
    Some venting that Apple hopefully will read and mention to their resellers....
    The people in the Apple section of MicroCenter in Vienna at first argued that the Mac Mini only supports 4 gigs. EVEN AFTER I SHOWED THEM THE SPECS on the Apple website.  The clerk (who I am calling a clerk because by no means was he a "specialist") even suggested that the Apple site was wrong.  On a later visit to MicroCenter to purchase the DDR3 8500, that the people at Apple recomended; Microcenter even suggested and argued that I needed DDR3 1333 and NOT DD3 8500.  THIS WAS AFTER I TOLD THEM THAT Mac Mini WOULD NOT RECOGNIZE the DD3 1333 Dimms.   Working in retail myself I don't go along with the concept that the customer is always right, however in this instance clearly I was.
    I should point out that some of the staff in Microcenter really do try hard, however like with any business it only takes a few "know it all" bad examples to turn customers off.
    Curious post thought; I wasted about $75 in gas driving to and from Microcenter because of their bad advice. 

  • Problem with memory module

    The problem with upgrade memory module.
    Available:
      Cisco 2951 router with the default memory module 512Mb.
    Additionally purchased:
      Memory Module MEM-2951-1GB (SG572288FG8P6ILMH4)
      Problem Description:
      When you start seeing a hardware router modules, after loading the ROMMON
      reading failure IOS image
      The first module is worth the default 512M, 1G second unit acquired
      The permutation modules as well as single use module 1G situation has not changed.
    Work whether the module supplier sold me?

    It shouldn't cost you a fortune, John.  I usually find Apple re-sellers very obliging on matters like this.  Where did you buy your memory from?   If it was Apple retail they may help and explain about the residue at the same time.
    It's not unusual to meet difficulties with the fitting of memory but the residue is something I haven't met before.  

  • Another Problem With Memory..

    Ok, so recently I just posted that I had a problem with mem... here is another. I just checked how much memory I'm using and it says I'm using 989 out of 1 gb.. is that normal? It was 504 about an hour ago and all I have open are Adium and Safari..

    The two important questions are 1) how much is inactive and 2) how many page outs are you showing in virtual memory. In fact, the second question is the one to key on. The number of page outs will indicate how often your computer has tried to access more memory than it has and as therefore been forced to copy RAM contents to the drive so it could perform the task it was asked to do. This is when your computer is being slowly choked to death.
    Now don't just open the Activity Monitor, look at the Page ins and Page outs and panic because you have 30,000 page outs. Keep in mind that's an accumulative number and if your Mac hasn't been restarted for 90 days, well that number may not be relevant at all. So restart the computer, and use it as you normally do. Then check the status of Page Outs at 30 minute intervals. The faster the Page Outs mount up with your normal usage the more you'll benefit from an upgrade.

  • Problem with memory usage and CPU usage

    Hello,
    i have a problem with the memory usage and cpu usage in my project!
    My application must run for more than 24 hrs. The problem is that the longer it runs the bigger is the memory and cpu usage!
    It starts with ~15% CPU usage and ~70 MBytes memory usage. After ~ 24hrs the CPU usage is ~60% and the memory usage is ~170 MBytes!
    After  3 days the CPU usage is almost about 70% and the memory usage is about 360 MBytes!
    What can I do to reduce this huge recource usage?
    Thank you!

    Hi Pahe,
       I think the issue is memory usage, since CPU usage can increase due to greater memory requirements.
       Anyway, it's difficult to debug without seeing your code, can you post it (possibly for LV 7.1 compatibility)?  Or just post a JPEG of the piece of code that can give problems...
       I guess you're appending data to an array instead of replace data elements, but I can't be sure...
       Have a nice day!

  • Wifi problem with Mac after upgrade to Mavericks

    I just upgraded to Mavericks but something wrong with my wifi.
    i can get internet through LAN link from Airport but not through wifi even i can receive an IP address
    i tried connect to hotspot with my iphone5s and it works.
    Other devices can use wifi just fine through Airport, just not my Mac using Mavericks
    In conclusion,
    Airport should be fine because my other devices works.
    Mac wifi should be fine too because i can connect using hotspot.
    so why it's not working when i connect Mac to Airport?

    I was having problems connecting to Wifi with my Macbook Pro (!2010), after upgrading to Mavericks. I was on the phone repeateadly with AT&T because I have Uverse. Testing everything (channels, signal strength) and had techs come out to check the line, ports, switches, etc. When I hardwired the Mac into the Uverse router, it worked fine. This rulled out any problems with the line in.
    I considered getting a repeater but then I read that repeaters are not really good and it is better to reconfigure a router to act as an access point on the network. Plunked down about $80 for a Belkin AC750 router at Best Buy. In the setup it has an option to set it up as an access point only. Clicked that, connected it to my Motorola NVG510 Uverse modem and then connected to the Belkin router from my Mac. Voila!  It's been a solid 11+ Mbs ever since (my plan maxes at 12Mbs). Connection is still solid and life if good even though it ***** to plunk down another $80 for a second router. But it was worth it just to get rid of the headaches.
    I think the wifi capabilities of the Motorola NVG510 modem are the cause of a lot of problems with AT&T Uverse issues, particularly for Mac owners. I think it was also causing my Airport Expresses to drop occasionally.... Few minutes of music then drop... music drop.... All gone now.
    I don't know if you are on Uverse but if so, I highly recommend configuring a second router as an acces point (it can be any old router you still might have - the setup is just a bit trickier because you have to do it manually).
    Good luck.

  • I Phone 4 - problem with bluetooth after upgrading to ios 4.2.1

    Since I have upgraded the software on my I phone 4, I have noticed a problem with my hands free kit in my car using bluetooth. When I make a call the sound comes through the system ok, but if I dial to voicemail the sound doesn’t come through. I never had this problem prior to the upgrade. Any suggestions?

    At least there is a way! only problem by doing this is, on the vodafone network you have to input your phone number followed by a pin every time if you access using +447836 121 121. The short key 121 is the way forward! Will this be fixed? is there a way of taking the I phone 4 back to previous version of software?

  • Problems with mail after upgrading to Mavericks

    Hello,
    since I upgraded to Mavericks, I have problems with Mail.
    The mail app doesn't retrieve any mail from my email servers. IMAP or POP or exchange mail no longer work.
    I have these problems on my iMac and my MBP.
    The strangest thing is that I have no more new emails in my icloud account since the upgrade. Not only does mail not retrieve the emails but I even can't see any new mail online.
    On my iphone with iOs7 the mails are retrieved, except of course the mails from the icloud account.
    Has anybody a solution at hand?
    Thanks

    this might help with the gmail problem: http://www.wired.com/gadgetlab/2013/10/mavericks-issues-and-fixes/?viewall=true

  • Problem with netflix after upgrading to firefox 6

    now that I have upgraded to firefox 6 I can't instant watch netflix anymore. please help I'd rather not have to use a different browser to do this.

    '''SOLUTION'''
    The problem with Netflix streaming with the FireFox 6.0 version is that the Netflix service '''refuses '''version 6.0 because they are A) unwilling to license it '''''or''''' B) too lazy or stupid to add the new version to their User Agent acceptance scheme. C) under contract to MICROSOFT to use Silverlight and part of Silverlight's DRM is what Browser versions are acceptable and Microsoft is taking their sweet time updating Silverlight to push I.E. on people and if you have Beta 5 Silverlight forget that -------Until Netflix accepts Firefox 6.0 as a legitimate Netflix browser '''you may do what I have done to get Firefox 6.0 streaming at Netflix.'''
    1) Open Firefox 6.0 and enter "www.whatsmyua.com" without quotations in the address bar and highlight and copy your present User Agent string from the top of that page when you get there.
    2) Type "ABOUT:CONFIG" without quotations in the Firefox address bar and hit enter then answer the You might destroy the world question with Alright I'm ready.
    3) Right click on the background of the Config screen and then highlight to click on the "New String" choice... When the box comes up enter "general.useragent.override" without quotations and hit return
    4) When another box appears paste in your current User Agent string you copied in step 1) BEFORE hitting enter place your cursor on your paste and right arrow to the end of the line. EDIT/REPLACE "6.0" with "5.0.1" without the quotations. Enter your change and close out the Config page.
    5) Repeat step 1) to make sure the User Agent string is now spoofing your browser as version 5.0.1
    6) Go to Netflix and watch movies (Make sure Silverlight and the Firefox Java are on). If it was working before the upgrade, everything should now work again streaming Netflix with Firefox 6.0.
    7) Call Netflix and tell them Dave sent you to see if they're stupid or just lazy and to quit spreading the B.S. that Firefox 6.0 ain't workin when we know it's Netflix (1-866-636-3076)

  • Problems with plugins after upgrading to win8

    Hi
    I made the upgrade to Windows 8 and now several PS plugins causes Photoshop CS6 to "Stop Working And need to close". I have uninstalled
    and reinstalled plugins and still the same problem. As this happens with different plugins from different vendors I am led to believe this is
    not a 3rd party problem, but rather a problem with PS in win8. Happens with plugins from Niksoft and RedGiant. Needless to say I have
    all the latest software and updates - legally purchased.
    I haven't done much research into this, posting here is my first step after googeling didn't help. Is this a common problem? Does anyone
    know a fix to this? It's of such importance that I am already considering reinstalling win7.

    As an update on this,
    After I installed the latest Windows Update system fix packages that were released today most of the plugins now work. I am not 100% sure I can credit MS with fixing this, as I fiddled with alot with my graphics card trying to make this work at the same time as I updated. I will have to do some more testing on this to able to say exactly what was the problem.
    I'm installing win7+ps on a virtual machine so I can use that when absolutely needed for the plugins still not working - guess I can live with that until certain 3rd party vendors sort things out.
    Allright Noel, I get your point  - but you have to be downright difficult to be reading my initial question as if I was seeking support on 3rd party software as such.

  • Problems with Mail after upgrading to MAC OS10 version 10.6.8

    I upgraded to MAC OS10 version 10.6.8 about ten days ago, and have since had lots of problems with mail. Since I upgraded, I have downloaded several software updates, including one for improving the general softeware system of Leopard.  Since this morning, I no longer have the Mail icon in the dock and when I try to open it in Applications a window comes up saying:
    'You can't use this version of Mail with this version of Mac OS X.  You have Mail version 4.5 (1084/1085). It can't be used on Mac OS X Version 10.6.8 (Build 10K549)
    Can I download a version that I can use with this Mac, and can anybody give me the site where I can find this. I have tried without success

    You should consider downloading the 10.6.8 combo updater and applying it again.
