I have a iMac late 2009 with 12GB ram, 3.06GHz Intel Core 2 duo, 322GB free space and OS X 10.9.3.
My problem is that I often have to reboot my machine because the machine "is out of software memory".
I have 193 GB of my 249 GB memory being used by 'other'..What on earth is in here and how can I remove it ? I know its anything outside of pictures, music etc but its massive and making my machine so slow
Im on a late 2009 macbook running OS X 10.9.2 (13C64)..I've tried running Omni and this useful to a point , I can't locate anything that is so high though that would be using all this memory up.
Can I add more memory to my IMAC even if it is already came with 4Gh 1067 MHZ ddr3 ? I have recently upgraded to osx 10.9.3

"Facebook"..When I clean my ram with memory cleaner, it goes down to 300 MB, 5 secs or less and it goes up again.

I had a window pop up that read, "Your system has run out of application memory" when I had sever al word documents open and Safari open & Gmail open.
I also do not know what deamons are, nor have I been able to use "time machine" to back up anything on my computer.
Here is what the Etresoft report told me:

I have gotten this message a few times now. in a small pop-up window. I have however lots of free space. Over 1 TB on both my internal drive and on my backup.
Have checked for software updates. I don't have any antivirus programs or other such stuff. It happens when I have Final Cut Pro X open. Also happened when I was using Aperture. In other words no third party programs.

I've got two interfaces, in this order:
1. Wi-Fi connection to Apple time capsule that links to the internet - 10.0.1.9
2. LAN connection to ISP that links to the internet - 10.0.2.250
This works perfectly well, however, I would like to rout traffic through the second link, not just have it as a fail-over.
So, I use the route command, like this: route -n add -host 197.242.144.171 10.0.2.250route -n add -host 197.242.144.175 10.0.2.250route -n add -host 173.194.41.182 10.0.2.250
This doesn't give any errors and a netstat -nr shows
197.242.144.171 10.0.2.250 UGHS 0 1 en0197.242.144.175 10.0.2.250 UGHS 0 0 en0173.194.41.182 10.0.2.250 UGHS 0 12 en0
If, though, I try trace route, this is what I get: traceroute 197.242.144.175traceroute to 197.242.144.175 (197.242.144.175), 64 hops max, 52 byte packetstraceroute: sendto: Cannot allocate memory1 traceroute: wrote 197.242.144.175 52 chars, ret=-1
It looks as if, somehow, the route command is corrupting the normal routin
Shortly after updating:
Safari (to 7.0.6)
Java (to version 7 update 67)
Pages (5.2.2, which has "An error has occurred" note in the purchases section of my App Store application)
Keynote (6.2.2)
Numbers (also has "An error has occurred" note in the "Purchases section" of my App Store application, and while it shows "installed" in same section, Numbers does not appear on the recently updated list in the "Updates" section)
and iMovie (10.0.5)
I also recall an Adobe update occurring (Macromedia?).
I began experiencing slow wake-from-sleep behavior. More recently, I have been getting "out of application memory" dialogs upon waking from sleep. There have also been a couple instances where the computer would not wake and had to be restarted. At one point, without having gotten the "out of application memory" dialog, I did note that virtual memory had ballooned to over 14 GB. That stayed like that until I logged out and logged back in.
This behavior seems to be specific to a user account (did not repeat when logged in as admin for one overnight test, but haven't tried an all day admin login).
I've tried uninstalling and reinstalling BOINC, as well as removing an Adobe Resource Synchronizer app from the user login items (given the recent Adobe update, and having read that said item could cause trouble).
So, I'm not sure how to proceed beyond offering the reports below:

I have a brand new iMac, that often displays an error stating the mac is out of memory. The mac has 16GB of memory and usually the only software used is Office products and Safari. I noticed that the machine would run out of memory when the mac is doing its index. I can usully see this happening in the spotlight. Below is a screen shot of the activity monitor.

how do you remove back up data from the memory storage? my storage data states that i have over 80gb of data used for back ups and i dont know why as i use a external hard drive as a time machine .now my 250gb flash storage is nearly full..

Some of my automatic logins that the mac remembers are incorrect and my issue is that when updated, are somehow not retained in the autologin. This means the feature is often useless and causes ultra frustration as I rely on it heavily.
How do I reset the disfunctional logins, or will I have to clear them all and start over, gah? It does not happen on all of them

I have an iMac, early 2009 OS X 10.9.4. Up until a few months ago I didn't have a problem with my memory card reader. The computer no longer detects the memory card reader. There is no indication by the computer that the memory card read has been plugged in. I bought a new memory card reader (different brand). The computer does not detect the new memory card reader. I have tried rebooting the computer. That did not make a difference. I tried unplugging all the USB devices plugged into the computer. That did not work

I have a iMac DV G3/500 (Special Edition) from summer 2000. Anyway, I am using Mac OS 10.2.8. Recently, my start up disk's memory has gone done from 1.2 GB available free space to 668MB (currently). I haven't saved anything on this disk so I can not understand why this memory has dissappeared. I have also had icons on the start up menu disappear. Could someone please tell me how I can restore the missing memory?
I have a Black MacBook (Early 2008). I think that I still have the factory standard RAM sticks (I bought the Mac used from a friend). I noticed today that I am running on only one gig of RAM even though I have two gigs of memory.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI just bought a early 2009 MAC Pro and it came with 3GB of RAM, I ordered 3 2GB sticks of memory to replace the 3 1GB sticks that I had in there from Kingston. I turned off the unit, I popped the little levers and pulled the memory out of slot 1, 2, 3 and then replaced the memory with the new Kingston in slot 1, 2, 3
One of the sticks in is not working at all and I get the RED LED light no matter what slot I move that chip to. So I am running on 2 of the new Kingston memory chips.
Can I mix the memory and add the 1GB into slot 3 and 4 with slot 1 and 2 full of 2GB chips?
Also how to I run the memory utility again? I went to /system/Library/CoreServices/ and then I see the program Memory Slot Utility.app
How do I run this? I'm used to no spaces and I type ./then program name
I've just updated the os to 10.6.2 and my 16gb mac pro 1,1 only shows 8gb in the system profiler. The memory tab shows they're all working correctly but size says "2gb" where should be "4gb".

View 1 Replies View RelatedI'm new to mac and I've noticed that I can have 2 gigs of memory one day and the next I'm down to 24 or something!I've noticed that if I open a file in Itunes and then change the info that there are now 2 files in the finder, one with the old info and the new with the new metadata. Why does OS-X do that?!
Also, if I have 1 gig of memory left (out of 180 or so) why does it disappear to 0 if I open photoshop? I'm used to a PC running virtual memory and CPU but why does the Mac actually take away my available memory?I'm at my wits end here, it's been driving me up the wall for weeks!
Im trying to figure out how much memory to order for my mac pro which will be ordered soon. I know the more the better but there must come to a point where it makes little difference?
My primary uses are lightroom, photoshop (amateur/prosumer level) as well as running windows XP and possibly 7 inside Fusion.
Would 8gb be enough or would 12 make a substantial difference ?
Is there a big real world difference between running in dual or triple channel?

View 2 Replies View RelatedI tried reading the manual but im a little confused. Mine came with the standard 2 x 1 gb that is installed on top and bottom card (1gb on top and 1 gb on bottom). I purchased 4 x 2gb cards and want to install it on top of the 2 x 1 gbs I currently have.
On the manual its telling me to install it in pairs but 1 is inserted on top and 1 is inserted on bottom...
So my last project - the first one on my new 3.2 octo with 20 GB RAM - and I'm getting out of memory errors in FCP. I thought at first it was a permissions or bad preferences problem, but it turns out that I actually pushed Final Cut too far and it exceeded it's 4GB RAM limit. does anyone have any info from Apple about when they might upgrade FCP to use more RAM?
View 2 Replies View Relateddoes anyone know how much memory would the PowerBook G4 (the very last one, 1.67GHz with DL SD and 15" HD) take?
apple- says 2GB, but is that limited by the motherboard or by the fact that when this machine went out of production, 2GB sticks weren't available yet?
I thought I read awhile back someone posted on how to move the virtual memory to another hard drive. Now, I could be wrong, so I did a search and couldn't find the thread. So my question is on my Mac Pro, I have three HDs. 350GB that has OS. 500GB that is free. 1TB that has data. Is there a way to move the paging file (VM) so that it is being used on the 500GB hd?
View 5 Replies View RelatedI have just installed 2 x 2 GB Memory from OWC in my new Mac Pro (early 2008). I have followed the video on OWS�s website in terms of where they should be placed!
Here is what I have tried:
Apple 2 x 1GB in Riser A slots 1 & 2
OWC 2 x 2GB in Riser B slots 1 & 2
OWC 2 x 2GB in Riser A slots 1 & 2
Apple 2 x 1GB in Riser B slots 1 & 2
(It should be 6GB in total)
Both options only show up as 4GB in total, where the OWC is 1GB each. Have tried to reset the PRAM, without any luck.
I then tried to take out the Apple memory, so only the new OWC was in and this then showed up as 3GB. Switched them around ant still only 3GB, but in a different order in the riser! So one on the OWC memory sticks must be faulty.
