What can I do to stop Logic from crashing with my plug-ins??

I'm running...
Logic Pro v9.0.0
2Ghz Intel Core 2 Duo iMac
2GB RAM
Native Instruments KOMPLETE 5 plugins (mainly Battery3 and Electrik Piano)
I have no problem with latency in audio recording and never even get crashes when using Logic plug-ins or running a lot of tracks at once.
But when I use the Native Instruments plug-ins and start turning some knobs on their interface, Logic quits without warning.
This isn''t all the time. But it does happen frequently, especially when running multiple plug-in instruments.
I can still get work done if I hit save all the time but it is getting more frustrating as my song grows larger.
Is there any sort of setting in Preferences that would help me with this?
I just ordered another GB of RAM. Do you think that will help at all?
What should I do? The KOMPLETE 5 instruments are too good to go without.
Thanks.

I ran Activity Monitor while opening a few projects in Logic. And it seems that I only have about 560MB of RAM left to play with once the song loads. Before I open Logic I have about 1.5GB of RAM that is free. So yeah, I think this is the problem.
When I get my RAM in the mail, I'll try going plug-in crazy and see what happens. And then I'll post back here with the results for anyone that may be reading this in the future.
But thanks for letting me know about Activity Monitor. I learn something new about my mac everyday. God bless.

  • What can be done to stop firefox from crashing?

    It's crashed twice now.
    I got these signatures:
    jvm.dll@0xc7ed2
    and
    NPSWF32.dll@0x77cd0

    That's odd.  I assumed that the popup you were seeing was the one displayed on this page:
    http://www.macromedia.com/support/documentation/en/flashplayer/help/help06.html
    I'm wondering if the other settings manager in your Control Panel is overriding that.
    This link provides instructions about disabling local storage in the Control Panel's settings manager  -- http://www.winhelp.us/index.php/general-security/application-security/securing-adobe-flash -player.html#.UCpvLKNgFUQ
    (Scroll down to the section about "Storage Settings - Flash cookies, Supercookies.")
    If you can't find the Flash Player manager in your control panel, you can call it up by going to the online settings manager I mentioned above, right clicking on it, and then selecting "Global Settings."
    Hopefully, this will work.

    Every time one of my email addresses doesn't work on my mail app, due to wrong password or whatever, it deletes all of the contacts form my phone.  What can I do to stop this from happening?
    I have tried deleting the account and it deletes all my contacts.  I have verizon and even using back up assistant, it says the contacts are there but they aren't.  The only way i can find a contact is if I start to type a name in and new text but once i sent the new text, the name disappears and it just shows the number.  Siri nor the address book don't recognize any contacts at all.

    I cant find any reciept in my email or in my husbands email.  I am going to attempt to call and speak to someone who can help me because this was not my fault except trying to be normal and update my phone!

  • I've turned on the do not track feature but I still have many sites tracking me. What can I do to stop them from doing this?

    I can tell that sites are still tracking me, if I search for an item on ebay the next time I go to Amazons site I see the item I was searching for on ebay on the Amazon page. I would like this to stop can you help with this problem?

    Hi,
    You can try installing Ghostery. It is available for download. It is an add-on to prevent tracking you by the websites. Check here for information: https://www.ghostery.com/

  • HT4534 I installed facetime on my computer in May 2011. It worked great at first,but now the volume goes out when I am on calls.What can I do to stop this from happening? Its not my speakers,I have used Skype and Google+ and the volume never goes out.

    The volume on my facetime goes out very frequently. I can hear the person just fine, but they can not hear me. I have checked my app store to see if there have been any updates to the version of facetime that I bought in May 2011 and it's not. Is there anything that I can do to fix this problem?
    By the way it is not my speakers. I have used Google+ and Skype, and they both work just fine and the volume does not go out.

    Thanks, it seems that it doesn't like to play games, which is a bit of a bummer as i bought this specifically because it was capable of doing that.  To be fair, it is capable... I just need to get used to a sound like sitting by a washing machine on spin cycle...  Wish they would make people aware of this in the Apple Store, its very misleading and not at all desireable.

  • What can I do to stop Firefox from lagging on movies like on youtube?

    I normally have quite a lot of lag when I'm watching movies on youtube or (for the dutch people) dumpert.
    When I use another browser to watch the video, I don't have any lag at all.

    Check if this issue is with other browsers too.

  • ITunes radio starts playing after I check email.  What can I do to stop that from happening.  It is a nuisance to open iTunes and pause the song playing.

    On my iPhone 5c, after I check email or other apps not related to phone use, frequently iTunes radio starts playing.  I have learned to open app and pause the song being played.  Is there a way to not have that happen?

  • Stop Logic From Changing program

    How do you stop logic from sending message via midi that will Change programs from synths. This happens all the time. I UNCHECK the boxes in environment, but still odd numbers still show up, referring to specific programs! I don't want that to happen Thanks!

    I have left them in the All Computers list, I tried adding discrete lists but that didn't help.
    The client Export is a good idea, I hadn't thought of that, thanks.
    So far locking the .plist has worked OK, ARD hasn't gotten upset that it can't write to it.
    But it will still clear out & change IP addresses.
    Does it matter that the DNS names are all blank since I added by IP address?  If ARD can't access the IP and there's no DNS name, is that what causes it to change/clear the IP?
