Total application memory increase?

About 2 months ago I purchased a 32gb memory card for my blackberry 8330 smartphone. Is there any way I can possibly increase the total application memory of my device? (Please forgive me if this is a stupid question as I am new to this whole smart phone universe.)

No.
The media card will be of use for media, i.e., music, videos, pictures and documents. You can't increase the device memory.

  • Can I increase application memory in finder

    I get a message saying I am running out of application memory.
    With OS9, I could increase the allocated memory in finder. Can I do this in 10.5.8?

    No. Mac OS X's RAM allocation is handled by the system automatically. If there's only a little free space on the internal drive, delete or move files as needed.

  • How do you increase an applications memory

    Getting a memory error code from Outlook 108 so how do I increase the applications memory?

    i googled your error and came up with a MS office thread that pointed to this
    http://www.office.mvps.org/error/number.html#error-108
    you've probably got an email with a bad header or some other such fun.  if you have webmail access for your account, you can login there and try to delete the message.

  • New iMac27" OS 10.9.4 runs out of application memory

    I have a brand new iMac 27" with 1TB Flash drive, 16GB RAM, i7 processor 3.5Ghz
    Although I only migrated the data files from an older iMac running Lion OS, I installed only a few apps fresh on the systems:MS office 2011, Skype, Chrome, Teamviewer and Firefox.
    It was running for several days with only Mail and Safari open.
    Time Machine was on for backup.
    Suddenly it gave an error that application memory was full and the computer needed to restart.
    This is odd.

    Seems odd that a brand new computer less than a week old would give this error.  Any suggestions?

    There is excessive swapping of data between physical memory (that is, the memory chips on the logic board) and virtual memory (one or more files on the startup volume.) That activity is relatively slow and causes the whole system to be less responsive. It can happen for two reasons:
              A long-running process with a memory leak (a kind of bug)
              Not enough memory for your usage pattern
    Tracking down a memory leak can be difficult, and it may come down to a process of elimination.
    These instructions are for OS X 10.9 ("Mavericks.") The procedure may be slightly different for earlier versions of OS X.
    When you notice the swap activity, open the Activity Monitor application and select All Processes from the View menu, if it's not already selected. Select the Memory tab. Click the heading of the Real Mem column in the process table twice to sort the table with the highest value at the top. If you don't see that column, select
              View ▹ Columns ▹ Real Memory
    from the menu bar.
    If one process (excluding "kernel_task") is using much more memory than all the others, that could be an indication of a leak. A better indication would be a process that continually grabs more and more real memory over time without ever releasing it. Here is an example of how it's done.
    The processes named "Safari Web Content" render web pages for Safari. They use a lot of memory and may leak if certain Safari extensions or third-party web plugins are installed. Consider them prime suspects.
    Another process often implicated in memory leaks is "inkjet4" or "inkjet8," which is a component of the HP printing software. If it's present, force-quit the process in Activity Monitor to solve the problem temporarily. Empty the print queues in the Printers & Scanners preference pane (which has a slightly different name in each recent version of OS X.) If you don't use an HP printer, remove the software. Otherwise, if the problem is recurrent, update the software (which may not help) or contact HP support.
    "Wired" memory should be a small part of the total. That memory is not swapped, but it makes less physical memory available which may then result in swapping. If you have a lot of wired memory, that's usually an indication of a memory leak in a third-party program that modifies the operating system at a low level. Ask for guidance in that case.
    If you don't have an obvious memory leak, your options are to install more memory (if possible) or to run fewer programs simultaneously.
    The next suggestion is only for users familiar with the shell. For a more precise, but potentially misleading, test, run the following command:
    sudo leaks -nocontext -nostacks process | grep total
    where process is the name of a process you suspect of leaking memory. Almost every process will leak some memory; the question is how much, and especially how much the leak increases with time. I can’t be more specific. See the  leaks(1) man page and the Apple developer documentation for details.

  • Application Memory Full - how do I stop this?

    Running LabView 3.1 on a 386 machine. After several minutes of running get the following: "Application Memory Full: Saving and closing VIs can free memory. You may need to increase the Total Memory allocated to LabView from the Preferences Dialog." I gave it the entire 32 meg and still the same. What to look into? remeber it's an ancient 386!

    Shift registers accumulating data with Build Array or Append String functions inside!
    Bad calculation of For loop count with autoindexing output on foor loop boundery.
    Or simply an autoindexing output on a while loop. The CPU may be slow but 32 MB is fast depleted in a loop when you create an array of double precision values.
    PS: You should have also a math coprocessor 387 installed or things get a little difficult in LabVIEW.

  • Yosemite - says "not enough application memory - and closes all open applications

    Since the day I installed Yosemite I have had problems. First, some other file was downloaded  when I did the Yosemite install which crashed the computer. It had to go in for repair. Once that was remedied, I frequently get an error message "Not enough
    application Memory and it starts automatically shutting down all of my programs. Normally, first to go is Mail, then Google (Safari would not work with Maverick - it would freeze) then Photoshop and whatever else is open. I did not have this problem with Maverick.  This is a pain!
    I am working on a 2009 Mac Pro with 24 MB Ram. 
    Any ideas about what is going on and how to remedy it. I would appreciate it. Thanks

  • "Your Mac OSX startup disk has no more space available for application memory" - uploading files problem

    Hi everyone,
    I'm running a late-2012 27 inch iMac - 3.4GHz Intel Core i7, 32GB 1600 MHz DDR3 with the 3TB fusion drive, OS 10.8.4. At present there is 1.92TB of available storage.
    I have received this message "Your Mac OSX startup disk has no more space available for application memory" just before a full on crash multiple times in the past couple of days whilst using WeTransfer to send over some large files (500MB+). The applications I have had open at the time have been: Activity Monitor, App Store, Firefox, and Finder. Over the course of uploading the files, the active system memory has gone from 1.04GB and steadily increased until it more or less maxes out around 29GB, at which point the Page Outs rocket up to around 40GB/s and the swap memory fills up pretty quickly until the computer basically can't take any more and blacks out.
    This is a pretty new thing, haven't really had an issues before. My main software used: Sibelius 7 & Logic Pro X. I've also recently started working with Final Cut Pro X, which seems to have been struggling at points. I've tried closing everything, restarting the computer and not opening anything (specifically NOT FCPX) before attempting an upload. I've even gone so far as to remove FCPX from my system, and yet the problem is still recurring. Both "kernal_task" and "WindowServer" have been running high on CPU when these problems have occurred.
    Does anyone know what might be the issue and how it could possibly be resolved?
    Really appreciate any help, I'm in the middle of a fairly sizeable project and the deadlines are just around the corner.
    Thanks,
    Tom

  • Recent "out of application memory" dialog popup

    Hello-
    Within the last few days, I am receiving a message "Your system has run out of application memory."  I've not changed anything and am not running more than iTunes, Safari, Mail and Marketcircle Daylite.  The same programs I've run for years. Any ideas as whee to look/fix?

    Another process often implicated in memory leaks is "inkjet4" or "inkjet8," which is a component of the HP printing software. If it's present, force-quit the process in Activity Monitor to solve the problem temporarily. Empty the print queues in the Printers & Scanners preference pane (which has a slightly different name in each recent version of OS X.) If you don't use an HP printer, reset the printing system. Otherwise, if the problem is recurrent, update the software (which may not help) or contact HP support.
    "Wired" memory should be a small part of the total. That memory is not swapped, but it makes less physical memory available which may then result in swapping. If you have a lot of wired memory, that's usually an indication of a memory leak in a third-party program that modifies the operating system at a low level. Ask for guidance in that case.
    If you don't have an obvious memory leak, your options are to install more memory (if possible) or to run fewer programs simultaneously.
    The next suggestion is only for users familiar with the shell. For a more precise, but potentially misleading, test, run the following command:
    sudo leaks -nocontext -nostacks process | grep total
    where process is the name of a process you suspect of leaking memory. Almost every process will leak some memory; the question is how much, and especially how much the leak increases with time. I can’t be more specific. See the leaks(1) man page and the Apple developer documentation for details.

  • Says I'm out of Application memory

    Error Message: Your system has run out of application memory.  How do I fix this?

    The message has nothing to do with low disk space.
    There is excessive swapping of data between physical memory (that is, the memory chips on the logic board) and virtual memory (one or more files on the startup volume.) That activity is relatively slow and causes the whole system to be less responsive. It can happen for two reasons:
              A long-running process with a memory leak (a kind of bug)
              Not enough memory for your usage pattern
    Tracking down a memory leak can be difficult, and it may come down to a process of elimination.
    These instructions are for OS X 10.9 ("Mavericks.") The procedure may be slightly different for earlier versions of OS X.
    When you notice the swap activity, open the Activity Monitor application and select All Processes from the View menu, if it's not already selected. Select the Memory tab. Click the heading of the Real Mem column in the process table twice to sort the table with the highest value at the top. If you don't see that column, select
              View ▹ Columns ▹ Real Memory
    from the menu bar.

  • I'm getting the message that my MacBook Pro has run out of application memory?

    If I'm not paying attention and am running more then 1 application at the same time I get a message that I've run out of application memory and need to "force quit" current applications in order to continue. Anything I can do to resolve this problem like add more RAM/

    First, all so-called "memory cleaning" software is worse than useless.
    There is excessive swapping of data between physical memory (that is, the memory chips on the logic board) and virtual memory (one or more files on the startup volume.) That activity is relatively slow and causes the whole system to be less responsive. It can happen for two reasons:
              A long-running process with a memory leak (a kind of bug)
              Not enough memory for your usage pattern
    Please note that if the cause is a memory leak, installing more memory will not help. That's likely if you already have more than 4 GB of memory. Tracking down a memory leak can be difficult, and it may come down to a process of elimination.
