PSCS4 Memory Error with Image Processor

When I use the image processor in PSCS4 to process a large number of raw files using ACR 5.1 (Nikon D3 NEFs), I consistently receive an error message after about 10-11 files have been processed that the instruction at 0x696336ab tried to read memory at 0x6C (or thereabouts) and the memory could not be read. I am saving as JPEGs with the color space set to sRGB.
I de-installed and reinstalled PSCS4, but the error persists. The image processor worked fine with PSCS3. A workaround that solves the problem is to process the files as a batch using a simple action to accomplish the task.
I am running Windows XP Pro Service Pack 3 with a dual Xeon processor and 2G of error correcting memory.

Hmm.. I was getting a similar error with CS3 and was very happy to find that it appeared to be cured in CS4. The CS3 issue would appear if I tried to process more then 100 NEFs. My workaround was to do them in smaller batches (60-75). Perhaps you might try reducing the memory alotted to PS or run it without any other apps running?

Problems with Image Processor in Bridge CS5

I just installed Photoshop and Bridge CS5, and I'm having a couple of problems. First, I can't update to Bridge 4.02. I've downloaded the installer and tried to run it, but I get an error message. All it says is that it can't run the update. The same thing with the Camera Raw updater. The most immediate problem I'm having is that Image Processor in CS5 seems to run differently from how it runs in CS4. Specifically, if I select a bunch of files in Bridge, and ask Image Processor to run an action on them and save to the same location, which is what I've been doing ever since CS2, it opens the files in Photoshop, and leaves them open. This means that pretty soon I've got far too many fiiles open, and my Mac can't cope with it (an iMac Core Duo 2.16Ghz with 4 GB of ram). It also gives me an error message at the end saying it can't process the relevant files, even though it has processed them! In previous versions of Image Processor, it would open the files to run the action, convert to sRGB, etc. and then close each one after saving it to a new folder named "JPEG". How can I get the latest version to behave like this?

Nevermind... I restarted Flash and it miragically appeared! Yay CS5!

Problem with Image Processor CS5

From Bridge I use tools/photoshop/image processor and convert raw with xmp files to jpegs after entering description and keywords in Bridge File Info. Suddenly, PS is not longer putting this information into the jpeg files. Why?

I'm beginning to think CS3 just isn't capable of handling long actions. Just to give you an idea what I'm doing is watermarking my photos with 3 items: a text logo, url and name. each of them consists of the same steps with the difference only being on their shape, size and position. so you can imagine 3 separate actions combine into 1. to test out my hypothesis, I deactivated 2 of them and tested for each one without any problem. next, I combined any 2 and failed. so my conclusion is CS3 just can't handle long actions as well as CS2.

Problem with image processor - photoshop cs6

Hi there .
I am trying to automate - image processor. From open files i am just trying to save theese pdf's as jpg's. Should be straight forward but I get this error...
"There were no source files that could be opened by Photoshop."
Anyone know why? I saw one google someone suggesting to reset the preferences or someting but I so not know how to do this or if it will help...
thanks.

It look like both the Image Processor script and the Image Processor Pro script will not process open document that have no associated backing file. When you open a PDF file and use options for Photoshop to use opening the PDF the documents that open are new document the source PDF files have been processes into a new documents that have not been saved so the open document has no associated backing file.
I mad a simple test. Opened a PDF. Tried the two scripts they failed. Then I saved the open document and the ran the Image processor on the still open document that had been saved as a tif. The image processor worked and saved a jpg.
It may be possible to write a small script to save open Document as jpeg files and close the open documents or loop around the open document ring and just save document that have no backing file.
You could also try using Paul Riggott PDF Processor script to do it all....

Problem with Image Processor

I usually use Image Processor to apply an action on tons of files on CS2. When I upgraded to CS3, I simply copied the actions over to the new action folder. Problem is, with long actions, CS3 doesn't close each file after it has performed the action unlike CS2, leaving the desktop filled with processed photos. Also a dialog box appear at the end with the message "Sorry, I could not process the following files:(list of files)". still, the processed files are saved in the destination folder. But here's the funny thing, when I run short actions, everything is ok.
what could be wrong? I tried changing a few things in Image Processor dialog box but always get the same result. again, with shorter actions at the exact settings, the results are fine.

Just to give you an idea what I'm doing is watermarking my photos with 3 items: a text logo, url and name. each of them consists of the same steps with the difference only being on their shape, size and position. so you can imagine 3 separate actions combine into 1. to test out my hypothesis, I deactivated 2 of them and tested for each one without any problem. next, I combined any 2 and failed. so my conclusion is CS3 just can't handle long actions as well as CS2.

Can someone help me with Image Processor?

I select Tools>Photoshop>Image Processor and nothing happens. No dialogue box, no signs of thinking...nothing. Can someone help me troubleshoot? I'm running Mac OS X.
Thanks!

Nice job, MW Design!
By the way, though it won't be as nice as a completely redrawn image, such as what MW Design posted above, if time is of the essence the Photoshop CC 14.0 Image Size dialog can do a nice job - provided you choose the "Preserve Details (upsampling)" method, can often yield an upsampled image with reasonably crisp edges, that might be more usable than the small version.

Having trouble with image processor...help please!

HI there...First off I just bought a new iMac and haven't a clue what I'm doing so my problem could be related to that. While I'm waiting for Adobe to transfer over my platform I downloaded the trial of CS5 Extended to get me started. I'm having trouble with the image processor...I choose file/scripts/image processor...the dialog box comes up and I choose use open files and then try and choose the folder I want to save them in. I choose my folder and hit run and it keeps telling me specify folder destination. I can't for the life of me figure this out...what am I doing wrong? It always worked fine for me on my PC and CS3. I can't handle saving each image individually in the new folder...
Thanks!!

I haven't renamed anything as far as I know. I made a new folder when I hit Folder option and it's highlighted as well as the path shows up in the processor box. Just when I choose run it tells me to specify a folder. The only thing I can think of is that maybe something messed up b/c I'm copied the files and folders over from my PC but it let me save as on the mac. Also the folder I'm choosing to put them in is on the Mac harddrive. IDK...

Memory Errors with NX4 and Adobe 3D

After installing the Adobe 3d trial version,I've had nothing but problems with NX4.Out of memory errors when there is plenty available.REinstalled NX4,same problems.Uninstalled adobe 3D,and the problem went away.We would like to purchase this,but not until this particular problem is solved.
Win Xp SP2
2 GB Ram
Dell Precision 370
Pentium 4
NX 4.0.0.25

are you working on big 3d models in nx4 ?(to check that, please do a right click on the windows task bar and open the task manager and check the memory used by nx4 with your 3d models loaded)- did the problem also occured with small models ?
if you memory footprint approaches the 2gb barrier, then 3d capture might be the cause ot your memory problems, to get rid of it, just open acrobat3d and go in the menu edit/preferences/3d capture and delete nx4 from your list of capturable applications.

Need some help with Image Processor

Hi there,
I have alot of images i need to resize for a website. These images are all different sizes, from 250x400(h) to 200x800(h). I need these ALL to fit in a 246x327 canvas, in their original proportions, regardless of white space.
Does anybody know if this is possible? So far all my results have failed and the image processor just seems to resize in proportion up to a maximum of 246x327, so nothing is that EXACT size, but all images will fit now fit INTO 246x327. I'm just not sure what to do now.
Any help is greatly appreciated.
- Tim

You can do this with a script.
Save the code into the presets/scripts folder as filename.jsx you can then include the script in an action. Use "Insert Menu Item" from the action pallete fly-out menu and select File - Scripts - select the script.
function main(){
if(!documents.length) return;
var doc = activeDocument;
var White = new SolidColor();
White.rgb.hexValue = 'ffffff';
// target size = 246x327
FitImage(240, 321 ); //width - height change to suit
app.backgroundColor = White;
doc.resizeCanvas(new UnitValue(246,"px"), new UnitValue(327,"px"), AnchorPosition.MIDDLECENTER);
main();
function FitImage( inWidth, inHeight ) {
var desc = new ActionDescriptor();
var unitPixels = charIDToTypeID( '#Pxl' );
desc.putUnitDouble( charIDToTypeID( 'Wdth' ), unitPixels, inWidth );
desc.putUnitDouble( charIDToTypeID( 'Hght' ), unitPixels, inHeight );
var runtimeEventID = stringIDToTypeID( "3caa3434-cb67-11d1-bc43-0060b0a13dc4" );
executeAction( runtimeEventID, desc, DialogModes.NO );
Edit:-
You don't even need the script! as the size isn't dependant on orientation so after the Fit Image you can use Image - Canvas Size in your action.

Out of memory Error with jdk 1.6

Hello,
I have a swing application launched on the client with the help of Java web start. The applications works fine in jre 1.4 and jre 1.5. The heap sizes are :
initial-heap-size="5m" max-heap-size="24m"
But when I run this using jre 1.6.0_05-b13, I am getting Out of memory Error, java heap size. And I see the memory usage is growing rapidly which I didn't notice in other jre versions (1.4 and 1.5).
Does anyone have any idea on this?
Thanks in advance,
MR.

Thanks for your response Peter. During my continuous testing I identified that error happens on jdk 1.5 also. And I have increased the min-heap-size to 24 MB and max-heap-size to 64 MB. But in that case also I noticed the out of memory error. The interesting thing is, the min-heap-size is never increased from 24MB and lot of free memory also.
Memory: 24,448K Free: 12,714K (52%) ... completed.
The Outofmemoryerror triggers from the reader thread which does the job of reading the data from the InputStream. One thing is we are continuously pushing more data on the output stream from the other end. Is that any limitation on InputStream which can hold some definite amount of data.
Please throw some light on this.

There is not enough memory error with 8gb installed

Description:
I'm getting an error when trying to copy or cut a collection of basic shapes in CS6 on Mac OS X 10.8.
It reads:
There is not enough memory to complete the operation.
To increase available memory, close other open documents or applications.
But when i check activity monitor there is plenty of memory available. I can succesfully copy a smal(ler) amount of shapes.
Steps already taken:
Tried copying after a system restart with no other programs running.
Tried adding more memory (i had 4gb originally, I just upgraded to 8gb).
I reinstalled Flash
I tried the same procedure (copying the same amount of shapes) on another machine with a similar amount of RAM and this works fine.
Is there a way you can allocate more memory to flash, or is this some setting that i'm missing?
Any help would be greatly appreciated!
P.s. I read this thread http://forums.adobe.com/message/3609214#3609214, and my problem is only different in that i don't have some huge files i'm dealing with. The .fla is only ~10mb.

Thanks for chiming in Mataxia.
One thing you can try is selecting the layers that have the shapes you want to copy. Then right click and choose copy layers. In my case this works even though selecting just the shapes (instead of the layers) will cause the memory error.
I'm using this as a workaround, but i can imagine that this isn't of any help in all cases.
This confirms my suspicions that this is a bug in flash. Would be great if someone from Adobe were reading this...

Out of memory error with 80Kb file?

Hi, my pc has 2Gb of Ram, a page file that is setup correctly
and the physical ram is almost non-used (500Mb)
When I start DW and load a php file of 80Kb approx., it just
hangs/locks up. When I wait for it, it gives me an "out of memory"
error, and when you look in windows task manager, it just keeps
hogging up ram.
My laptop is a "simple", 1Gb Hp pavillion, and when I open
the file there, it just works like it's supposed to, using about
70Mb of ram, instead of the gigabyte(s) it does on my developer
machine....
Adjusting virtual memory has absolutely no effect.. It seems,
after some reading, that people using 2gb of ram, have the most
problems in this area?
Adobe, please help here !
EDIT: i just tested another file, 136Kb large, that loads
normal!, so it has to do with the files in specific... If you want
to test the files, just download "Simplemachines Forum" and load
the "load.php" or the "post.php" files from the source directory,
to trigger the lockup...

mmm... just tried using a "workaround" if you still can call
it that
Installed a virtual machine (xp) with less than 2gigs, and it
works... I really hope someone else has got these kind of errors
yet.... 2500$ + software, wich I can't use for now... Using
notepad2 for time being...

Issue with Image Processor starting

When I go to start Image Processor in CS5, I get "Image Processor.jsx could not be found". Please help. Thanks.

Search your machine for that file "Image Processor.jsx" make sure it in Photoshop's folder Presets\Scripts\ I would think it would be if its listed in menu File>Script>Image Processor... .

Java heap out of memory error with -Xms1g -Xmx4g 64 bit VM

We are getting Java Heap memory error for the application we are running on linux 64 bit machine (VM).
The OOM came when heap usage was 1.7gb though we have specified min as 1gb and max as 4gb. If I understand correctly then it should not have been thrown as we have specified max as 4gb. If address space was the problem then it should have thrown swap space error.

the OOM error ... wasn't coming when we had set min and max both as 4 GB.You deviously withheld that information.
When the JVM needs to grow the heap it asks the OS for a bigger memory block than the one it has.
The OS may refuse this and the JVM will throw an OOME.

Memory Error with Tomcat 4.1

I have a Tomcat 4.1 installation on a Linux 7.2 box. Tomcat uses
mod_jk with Apache. We are currently in a development phase and change alot of jsp's on a daily basis. Eventually it seems that Tomcat runs out of memory for the compilations and gives the following message:
org.apache.jasper.JasperException: Unable to compile class for JSP
An error occurred at line: -1 in the jsp file: null
Generated servlet error:
[javac] Compiling 1 source file
The system is out of resources.
Consult the following stack trace for details.
java.lang.OutOfMemoryError
After Tomcat is restarted everything appears to to be okay for a time. Eventually this problem will come back. The problem appears to be only when jsp files are changed. Running jsp's ( which were previously compiled and have been unchanged) run just fine.
In the /var/tomcat4/conf/tomcat4.conf file I have the following command
uncommented:
JAVACMD="$JAVA_HOME/bin/java -Xms6m -Xmx100m"
I am running java 1.4.1 on the Linux box.

I was looking at the Jakarta web site and under the Tomcat4.1 documentation it gives a description of what is new in 4.1. It states:
Rewritten Jasper JSP page compiler
Performance and memory efficiency improvements
Among other things. Could they have a memory leak?
