Why this: "Could not complete the Export command because there is not enough memory (RAM)."

Same RAM (max recommended) as before so why do I get this message when I try to optimize an image for web? I've restarted the program and the computer.

How much RAM does your system have? Have you successfully been able to optimize an image for web with your current RAM settings? You could try going to Photoshop > Preferences > Performance and allocating more RAM to Photoshop:

Could not complete the export command because of an application error

Every once in awhile I get the error, "Could not complete the export command because of an application error" when using the Save for Web option. It's really confusing because the error is not consistent. I don't get it all the time. In fact, 99% of the time I can save with no problems. When I quit Photoshop and reopen my files they seem to save just fine. Does anyone know why this happens, and how to prevent it from happening in the future?
Here are my specs:
Macintosh: iMac
OS: 10.6.8
Photoshop: CS3 (v10.0.1)
Any help is greatly appreciated!

No idea about the specific issue, but I like to pass on some general advice I have received myself here over time:
Boilerplate-text:
Are Photoshop and OS fully updated?
As with all unexplainable Photoshop-problems you might try trashing the prefs (after making sure all customized presets like Actions, Patterns, Brushes etc. have been saved and making a note of the Preferences you’ve changed) by pressing command-alt-shift on starting the program or starting from a new user-account.
System Maintenance (repairing permissions, purging PRAM, running cron-scripts, cleaning caches, etc.) might also be beneficial, Onyx has been recommended for such tasks.

Weeding out bad fonts never seems to be a bad idea, either. (Validate your fonts in Font Book and remove the bad ones.)
If 3rd party plug-ins are installed try disabling them to verify if one of those may be responsible for the problem.

Could not complete the export command because the file could not be found

When I try to save for web, Photoshop pops up a dialog box that says "could not complete the export command because the file could not be found".
What is the solution for this?

Please provide more information (Photoshop version, OS, target volume, …).
Does the file’s or one of the folders’ name contain problematic letters (slash etc.)?

The operation cannot complete because there isn't enough memory (RAM) available

Illustrator CS5 Verison 15.1 on a MacBook Pro Retina, 15-inch, Early 2013 Processor 2.7 GHz Intel Core i7, Memory 16 GB 1600 MHz DDR3,
Graphics NVIDIA GeForce GT 650M 1024 MB. Illustrator opens .ai and .pdf files. When I try to open a .dwg file, I get the following message, “The operation cannot complete because there isn’t enough memory (RAM) available”. I have been using the program for some time to successfully open .dwg files. This is a recent occurrence and I have not made any changes to the hard drive other than installing OS 10.9

Have you already opened that specific file at some former time?
Have you already tried a restart?
Apart from that:
Illustrator CS5 cannot use more than 3 GB of RAM, no matter how much is installed. OS 10.9 causes all kinds of problem even with newer versions of Illustrator.

Ai - The operation cannot complete because there isn't enough memory (RAM) available.

Hi I got this message "The operation cannot complete because there isn't enough memory (RAM) available." when I was trying to scale the image or transform it to 3D. I just signed up for Adobe Creative Cloud a few days ago. Please help. Thank you.

Photoshop CS5.1 "Could not complete the save command because there is not enough memory (RAM) - HELP

Hi, I use Windows 7, Photoshop CS5.1 often pops up with "Could not complete [command] because there is not enough memory (RAM)." I have increased my performance preferences to (1451mb) 90%, however I have not restarted Photoshop as I want to try and save the work I have been doing today. I would greatly appreciate any experience in this area and advice as how to work around this problem.

Good day!

I've also purged undo and history, and still no luck. I tried doing Save as... and attempted to duplicate layers to a new file, and even tryied to "convert to smart object", but everything I try throws the not enough memory error.
My system shows me using 3.7G/15.9G
12.2 available
6.3G/35.5G committed
I also have 2 very large scratch disks available (with hundreds of available gigs), including a very fast SSD, and standard 7200 disk.

The operation cannot complete because there isn't enough memory (RAM) available? Anyone had this issue?

I was working on a file, closed it briefly, then reopened it but didn't open and continued to get the message that I don't have enough memory.
The file is not huge at all. 41.3 MB
Anyone had this issue before? Need help soon. Need to send this file to the printer.

OK. I figured it out. I just opened the file on Illustrator CS5 instead of CSS. It opened fine, but still didn't resolved the issue why CSS couldn't open that file, but CS5 can.
If anyone has an answer for that, I would really appreciate it.
Would prefer to send files to the latest software versus using an older program.
Thanks!

CS6 CS5 "operation can not complete because there isn't enough memory (RAM) available"

Hi,
I told the client (rather foolishly it seems) that I could open a DXF in Illustrator CS6. I get the message shown even though I have 8g of ram
any ideas??
It refuses to open in cs5 as well
file is 4.2mb
thanks

CS5

A .dxf of 4.2Mb seems large, must be something else in there than a die line. Did they send you a .pdf with this so you know what this looks like. Also if they did not put dimensions on there that can be a hassle as often you have to try every unit you figure out what units the operator was wiring in.
If you can post the file (hightail has a free trial), I have 32gb and can try this for you.

CS5 - The operation cannot complete because there isn't enough memory (RAM) available

Hi,
I keep getting the above message whenever I try to perform any 3D functions in Illustrator. I have Adobe Premium CS5 V5 and am using Windows 7 Proffesional on 2 machines:
desktop pc:
Core i5 3.33Ghz/4Gb Ram with an independant graphics card: ATI Radeon HD 4550 (512mb Ram)
and a laptop:
Core i5 2.4Ghz/6Gb Ram with Geforce 310M graphics.
Both are brand new setups and I am local administrator for both machines.
The Pagefile has now been set to 3x Ram size (was originally managed by Windows) to see if it resolved the problem but it has not.
Can anyone help with this? we have invested a lot of money both in equipment and software (i.e. 2xAdobe Premiums!) to avoid issues like this.
Many Thanks

Hi Wade,
Many thanks again for your continued (and quick) responses.
It seems a bit harsh (of Adobe) that we need to put in extra hardware just to keep the program alive. Particularly when both machines far exceed the requirements stipulated by Adobe's site:
http://www.adobe.com/products/illustrator/systemreqs/
If I was trying to speed things up or edit something really big, then I could understand the need. But I really am not trying to do anything that demanding.
Just to add, I have noted that I have not set the program to run as administrator, and have remedied this (something in Windows Vista and 7 that allows a user to be administrator but elevating the level of programs is separate. I will monitor to see if this makes any difference also.
Please don't read this as not appreciating the suggestion. We are really getting to stages where we will try anything (i.e. an extra drive will be put into the desktop if, my latest settings change does not work and I can get it authorised).
I'll keep you posted.

How do I resolve: "Could not complete the Crop command because the file is not compatible with this version of Photoshop" error message?

Photoshop document created in current version of PSCC2014, now will not crop, resize, etc without throwing compatibility error.
"Could not complete the Crop command because the file is not compatible with this version of Photoshop."
How do I resolve without recreating the file?

Ooops. Hit save reply prematurely.
You may be able to open the flattened composite or the embedded JPEG preview of your file in Adobe Illustrator, GraphicConverter (Mac only) or some such application, but your layers will be gone.
The problem of working across a network is that it's not supported by Adobe:
This is the boilerplate text often used in connection to saving to a network (please NOTE the part where it explains that normally, it does work, but that it is impossible to troubleshoot someone else's network remotely, and that's why it's not supported by Adobe):
If you are opening files over a network or saving them to a network server, please cease and desist immediately in the event you are currently experiencing problems with one or more files. Working across a network is not supported.
See:
http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/406/kb406793.html
Copy the CLOSED file from your server to your local hard disk, work on it, save it again to your local hard disk, close it, and copy the closed file back to the server.
Of course, the fact that Adobe does not support working across a network does not necessarily mean it won't work. It should.
Adobe's position is that there are too many variables in a network environment for them to guarantee that everything will work correctly in every network, especially given the fact that if something does not work properly, it's probably the network's fault, and Adobe has no way of troubleshooting your network.
If you can't work locally, you are on your own, and if something happens, you're on your own. If you must work from a server, make sure your network administrator is a competent professional.
When problems arise, a lot of valuable work can be lost.

Why this: "Could not complete the Export command because there is not enough memory (RAM)."
