Why is iTunes memory usage so high?

As the title states iTunes is using a riduclous amount of memory of my computer 150MB and continually rising until it freezes and then crashes. This is such a useless program and such a memory hog. Any ideas on how to reduce the stupid amount of RAM this program uses?

Close your iTunes,
Go to command Prompt -
(Win 7/Vista) - START/ALL PROGRAMS/ACCESSORIES, right mouse click "Command Prompt", choose "Run as Administrator".
(Win XP SP2 & above) - START/ALL PROGRAMS/ACCESSORIES/Command Prompt
In the "Command Prompt" screen, type in
netsh winsock reset
Hit "ENTER" key
Restart your computer.
Now launch your iTunes and see if it is working now.

  • Why is my memory usage so high?

    This memory usage really shouldn't be okay, from having Chrome, Activity Monitor, Steam, and Skype running. I'm pretty sure the problem isn't that I don't have enough RAM. Does anything here look like is easily fixable?

    Nothing there looks like it needs to be fixed. Your memory usage is normal.

  • JVM performance in case of JVM memory usage is high

    Hi All
         Here is some query about JVM performance in case of JVM memory usage is high.
         I have a server of 16GB. For JVM 12GB and for OS 4GB.
         Let say, My Application creating many Unnecessary Objects and consumes very high memory.
         Also, there is a gaurenty that limit of memory is it never exceed 2GB.
         No, in worst scenario memory used by JVM is 2GB.Ok.
         I have free memory available for JVM is 10GB(16GB - 2GB - 4GB(any OS memory usage)).
         Now, for any Application processing I have 10GB.
         So, does it affect application processing for which I have 10GB.
         I mean does JVM performance decreses in high JVM memory usage even I have occupied more memory to JVM.

  • Itunes + memory usage

    Hi,
    I'd like to ask why iTunes uses approximately 40 MB of RAM and has two helper programs, iTunesHelper and iPodService each using 4 MB of RAM running?
    What do iTunesHelper and iPodService do?
    How can I disable features of iTunes that take up extra RAM (e.g. album viewer), and how can I disable iTunesHelper and iPodService?
    Also when is the RAM usage going to be decreased, alternative players such as Windows Media Player 10 use 7-9MB RAM and start up much faster(0.5s) than itunes(4s).
    Where is it possible to download older versions of itunes (e.g. 4.6?)

    I have used iTunes 7.02.16 for a few weeks, and I just now started noticing a focus problem with the mouse pointer that seems to be related to memory usage. I'm running WinXP(sp2) on a new PC. iTunes seems to idle at 50M, however, I am seeing it use 70-100+M at other times.
    The main trouble is that when I doubleclick on a song/video, iTunes loses focus. I have used iTunes since 2003, and I never have had trouble with the pointer focus until this week. Whether I doubleclick slow, normal, or fast, I still cannot get iTunes to play a song/video under the pointer. iTunes either plays a completely different song/video, or it opens the title box for me to edit/rename the song/video. When I view the list of processes running, I see that iTunes is using a larger amount of memory (70-80M) while idling. It's only iTunes; no other applications are losing pointer focus.

  • SQL Server Memory usage is high

    Hello,
    One of our production SQL cluster is eating up more memory on server.
    Here are the server specifications :
    OS : Windows 2008 R2 Enterprise
    SQL : SQL Server 2008 SP2 standard edition ( 2 node cluster )
    Memory : 16 GB ( 8 Gb to SQL and rest to OS )
    CPU : 8
    This server is heavily used by CLR and linked server events.
    I have seen the memory usage of databases , it's not using more than 7 GB and leaving 1 GB free in sql memory area ( from our Idera SQL dm
    monitoring tool ). I'm suspecting CLR events are causing these spikes.
    When i look at the task manager sqlserver.exe is using 15.7 Gb ( close to 16 GB )
    Not sure how to see which process are using the memory. 
    Also we are seeing the below error messages in error log very frequently
    10/27/2014 15:23:52,spid1s,Unknown,AppDomain 85 (xxxxxx) is marked for unload due to memory pressure.
    I have looked at some blogs in internet, i didnt get any correct info. I have seen this is kind of bug in SQL 2005 32-bit system but we are
    using 64 bit system.
    http://support.microsoft.com/kb/969962
    Can anyone please help me on this ?
    Thanks in advance

  • Why is my memory usage quickly reaching my max RAM, even after a reboot?

    Okay so, I have a macbook with 8GB of RAM and just recently I noticed some issues while playing my gambit of online games.  Naturally I closed them out and checked my activity monitor and noticed that my RAM usage was at 7.99GB.  I figured restarting would fix this issue and for a moment it seemed to.  However my memory usage quickly climbed back up to very nearly 8GB.
    Now I am not one to fret over high RAM usage but in this case my entire computer is running slowly and most of my 'heavier' applications are refusing to launch at all.  My network is also seems to be choked, it was never fast but when I open a program that uses the internet I get maybe 5KB/s, laughable really.
    It seems like within a few minutes of using my laptop the memory climbs rapidly then I'm right back in the same mess in about 4 minutes.  This seems like some memory leak issue, but the odd thing is none of the processes look to be memory hungry.  All the processes in the activity monitor account for about 1.7GB of RAM yet the memory usage is already back to 7.97GB and I am just running FireFox and Safari at the moment.
    Any help or input would be greatly appreciated!

    most of my 'heavier' applications are refusing to launch at all
    Launch the Console application in any of the following ways:
    ☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
    ☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
    ☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Console in the icon grid.
    The title of the Console window should be All Messages. If it isn't, select
              SYSTEM LOG QUERIES ▹ All Messages
    from the log list on the left. If you don't see that list, select
              View ▹ Show Log List
    from the menu bar at the top of the screen.Click the Clear Display icon in the toolbar. Then take one of the actions that you're having trouble with. Select any messages that appear in the Console window. Copy them to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C. Paste into a reply to this message by pressing command-V.

  • Memory usage gets high and stays high

    I'll use my current project as an example, but I've been noticing this issue ever since I started monitoring my computer's memory usage. If I have an hour long Premiere CC timeline and render it, during rendering my computer's memory will go up to about 90%. After rendering is done, task manager shows that Premiere is still using about the same amount of memory, and it stays that way until I restart my computer. It's like it has locked into using certain resources and cannot let go. Any way to remedy this? I currently have 10gb memory (ordered 2gb more that is arriving this week), so it's not the fastest machine around, but should handle memory better in my opinion. I am fine with the rendering speed itself, it's just the tied up resources afterwards that seem like it could be fixed.
    One more point - one solution is forcing Premiere and all its components to close. This gets the memory back to normal. Unfortunately, sometimes after I render a long timeline and force restart Premiere, when I get back all my render files don't properly reconnect and I'm forced to re-render the timeline. The fact that it doesn't reconnect to the render files is another related-issue I need help with too, if anyone can offer feedback. Thanks!

    On the lost renders.

    On the memory issue, I'm not sure anything is wrong here.  You say PP releases it when you close PP.  That's the expected behavior.

  • Photoshop memory usage extremely high

    I opened a clean Photoshop, then opened and viewed about 6-8 PSD files (each one no bigger than 200mb) individually, not all at once.  Then with all PSDs closed and Photoshop "empty" I began working in other programs and noticed my computer acting really slow at times.  I then noticed that Photoshop was using 12gigs of memory sitting there doing nothing?  This happens a lot...I'm done with Photoshop, but Photoshop is not done with memory usage.  Really annoying having to close Photoshop after every use just to clean out it's memory hold.
    I'm using Photoshop CC 2014.

    I've tried purging clipboard and even have deleted all the contents of my Win7 %temp% folder... Photoshop still hogs big amounts of memory.
    here is more system info if this helps:

  • Why is Flash CPU usage so high on my PC?

    To other psoters here - Please do not hijack my thread for any other performance issues with Flash other than high CPU usage.
    This thread is (hopefully) dedicated to why the CPU usage on my desktop PC jumps when I go to a page with flash 'content'. Thank you!
    I am hoping that there is an answer for why my computer is using a very high amount of CPU percentage when I am viewing flash content?
    I am running Windows Vista Home Premium Service Pack 2 on a Gateway GT5432 desktop computer.
    I have Shockwave Flash version 11.7.700.169 installed.
    I am using Firefox version 20.0.1 (but I have seen same problem of high CPU with Google chrome).
    Here is one page that is causing the high CPU usage.
    -   http://logansroadhouse.com/Default.aspx
    That page appears to have lots of Flash content.
    If I open that logans roadhouse page, my CPU usage goes from an average of 12%, to 80%!
    The process I see jump are:
    - Firefox's "plugin-container.exe" goes from 0% to about 50%
    - Firefox browser "firefox.exe" goes from around 8% to 14%
    - Adobe's plugin "FlashPlayerPlugin_11_7_700_169.exe" goes from 0% to 16%
    - TOTAL CPU change from 8% to 80% after opening up just this one page !
    When I close the page, the CPU usage goes down again. Open again - CPU goes high again.
    Also if I go to the firefox addons page and DISABLE the SHOCKWAVE FLASH plugin, then go to that Logans Roadhouse page, very little of the content I saw with Flash enabled is visible - which I take to mean it is a page consisting of lots of Flash 'content'. Also the CPU usage remains low (8%) if I go to that page - after disabling the Shockwave Flash plugin.
    I have seen the CPU also go high on youtube.com pages also - CPU jumps just as I said above - if Flash is enabled. CPU then drops after disabling Flash plugin.
    I was hoping you had a fix for my problem? My PC becomes almost unusable with the CPU so high. It sure looks like it is the Flash plugin driving the CPU so high.

    I am also facing the same problem from last 2-3 weeks since i upgraded my flash player to latest one.
    All softwares and drivers are upto-date.
    I play wartune MMO flash browser based game (also applicable to youtube videos)  which is now using above 80% of CPU. Before upgrading, CPU usage was normal around 5-15% depending upon the events, but not more than 20% even if i open 3-4 accounts of wartune in different windows at the same time. It happens in all browsers (IE10, Mozila22.00, Opera12.15, Chrome27.0.1453.116 m).
    I tried all solutions like disabling  hardware acceleration, flash cache size to unlimited, clearing all flash cache etc but the same problem.
    Please fix this problem as soon as possible.

  • Why is my memory used so high?

    I bought a new macbook air with 8gb of rat and 512gb HD and 1.4 GHz Intel Core i5. For some reason my Memory Used is super high even though I barely have anything open. It's been running pretty slow. Even when I hit the F3 button to view all my pages, it's super laggy. Any idea?

    Quit Chrome and try using Safari. Why do you think it is running slow?
    Pre-Mavericks
    Open Activity Monitor in the Utilities folder.  Select All Processes from the Processes dropdown menu.  Click twice on the CPU% column header to display in descending order.  If you find a process using a large amount of CPU time (>=70,) then select the process and click on the Quit icon in the toolbar.  Click on the Force Quit button to kill the process.  See if that helps.  Be sure to note the name of the runaway process so you can track down the cause of the problem.
    Mavericks and later
    Open Activity Monitor in the Utilities folder.  Select All Processes from the View menu.  Click on the CPU tab in the toolbar. Click twice on the CPU% column header to display in descending order.  If you find a process using a large amount of CPU time (>=70,) continuously, then select the process and click on the Quit icon in the toolbar.  Click on the Force Quit button to kill the process.  See if that helps.  Be sure to note the name of the runaway process so you can track down the cause of the problem.

  • Installed 5.0 now my memory usage is high and computer is slow. how do i correct this?

    my cpu usage keeps popping up and saying firefox memory usa isge is at 73%. then my computer runs slow. i did not have this problem with my last version of firefox. also usage from plug in container is high. how do i correct this?

    Credit Tony E:
    To downgrade to Firefox 3.6 first uninstall Firefox 4, but do not select the option to "Remove my Firefox personal data". If you select that option it will delete your bookmarks, passwords and other user data. See https://support.mozilla.com/kb/Uninstalling+Firefox
    You can then install the latest version of Firefox 3.6 available from http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all-older.html - it will automatically use
    your current bookmarks, passwords etc.
    To avoid possible problems with downgrading, I recommend going to your profile folder and deleting the following files if they exist - extensions.cache, extensions.rdf, extensions.ini, extensions.sqlite and localstore.rdf. Deleting these files will force Firefox to rebuild the list of
    installed extensions, checking their compatibility, and reset toolbar customizations.
    For details of how to find your profile folder see https://support.mozilla.com/kb/Profiles

  • Why is airplay upload usage so high? (using wireless speaker)

    I have a iHome wireless speaker that I play using iTunes Airplay. It works fine but the upload usage is through the roof compared to the download usage (e.g. upload = 128KB/s, download = 7KB/s) - this seems strange, thought it should be the other way around, what am I uploading?  I've turned off all my iCloud settings, am not sending data back to Apple in iTunes so not sure what's going on - anyone else got any clues or knows how to fix this, it's chewing up my bandwidth usage big time.

    Actually I figured it out - if you use the Apple Time Capsule as your internet server that seems to cause the upload usage, when I connected the speaker directly to the modem it is back to normal usage. Just thought I'd post this for anyone else who's had this issue.

  • Why is my data usage so high?

    Using Verizon's data calculator, 5G should me more than sufficient for the limited PC usage.  In one week, the data usage information indicates we have used over half in one week.  There are several entries in the breakdown for small amounts during the midnight hours, when computers are not in use and shut down. 
    I am very disappointed with the information provided before this plan was purchased, based on what we expected for our data needs.  By increasing the data amount our bill will increase 30.00  There are many sources that indicate 2G should be ample for each of us in the household (2).  So, I am not sure the calculations are correct that are being tracked with the Jetpack system.  Here is the data calculator, I entered more than twice the expected usage for the two laptops combined.  We download no music, videos, movies.  Simply check email and browse the web.  How do you explain this?

    5/21/2014 Data Calculator - Verizon Wireless

    The VZW Data Calculator is a tool designed to help estimate and visualize data usage.  Most folks have no idea what data is or how it is consumed on their devices.  The data calculator tool is not accurate on any front other than to give you a general idea how much data a particular function consumes under normal circumstances.
    VZW provides its users with a limited data usage report that does not break down individual application or device usage into meaningful results.  What you get instead is a power bill like summary of your usage in terms of how much was used at certain times of the day.  After all VZW is not in the computer support business, they provide you with the pipe and users determine how best to consume the data.  A leaky hose or application is not the responsibility of VZW to discover and correct.
    When it comes to the actual usage of your VZW device there isn't a whole lot out there that can show you how you are consuming your data plan.  Some monitor applications and devices can be setup ahead of time, but all they are good for is reviewing the data that flows through them.  Special care must be taken when designing and setting up monitors to make sure you capture everything.  Monitors are generally not user friendly to setup or understand and often require detailed readings of numerous logs to determine where problems are, if the monitor can even capture them at all.
    The current best practices for data usage are as follows:
    1. Power down your VZW device when it is not being used
    2. Secure your VZW device with a custom SSID, WiFi and Admin password
    - This should be in compliance with security best practices for strong passwords
    - A good site to reference is https://howsecureismypassword.net/

  • System memory usage seems high

    hello. i have a 3 month old macbook pro 13 and when i just looked on activity monitor with no programs running but airport on it said i was using 2.28 gigs of system memory and 1.72 gigs was free. does that seem normal? the only program on here that didn't come stock is iwork. and as i said, nothing was running at the time. thanks.

    When you look in the Activity Monitor, what is listed for inactive memory? As the linked article indicates, inactive memory is memory that was in use by another application that was closed and can either be reused by the application if you reopen it or can be used by any other application. http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1342?viewlocale=en_us
    So if your inactive memory is high, then you shouldn't spend too much time worrying about the amount that is "free" because the inactive memory is essentially free.

    Not to put too fine a point on it, but more than what?  More RAM is almost always better, but you haven't answered most of the questions posed here.  The answer might be different if you have 2 GB of RAM or 32 GB of RAM already.  A 9 megapixel document could get rather large with a lot of layers, but again you've neglected to give any hard info about its size.
    Regarding your video card, that's a bit of a judgment call you need to make.  For Photoshop CS6 I currently advise people to try to get a video card that gets a score of 1000 or better on this benchmark:  http://www.videocardbenchmark.net/high_end_gpus.html
    Video card speed will matter when you're editing those 3D components and video card VRAM will also matter, but possibly even more importantly your GeForce 320 is a bit old, and nVidia may just not be doing their best driver work for it any more. 
    Everything in general will run more smoothly with a powerful modern video card.  I like to recommend a VisionTek ATI Radeon HD 7750 - or if the computer power supply and your budget allow, the even more powerful 7850.  VisionTek does a very good job with their hardware, IMO, and it comes with a lifetime guarantee. 
    Keep in mind that if you switch from nVidia to ATI or vice versa, you should carefully sweep your system to ensure all files from the old card are removed, then visit the web site of the new card's maker and download/install their latest display driver release.
    Best of luck.
