Photoshop :: CS4 32 Bit Not Releasing Memory
Mar 26, 2009
Photoshop CS4 does not seem to release memory until I close the software. As an example I will open a D3x image file and maybe work on 3 layers of the image and at this point Photoshop is using up to 3GB of system memory.
I then take this file flatten it and reduce it down to around 1333px and in Task Manager Photoshop is still using up 3GB of system memory. Only after about 5-10 minutes does it then drop down to 1.5 GB but keep in mind I only have a file that's about 2.4 MB in size open.
Could this be due to the fact that I am running the 32-bit version of CS4 under a 64 bit OS? Any other ideas why Photoshop could be doing this?

I am having an issue with 2014 not releasing memory when assemblies are closed.
After a dozen saves the saving process is noticeably slower and a task will appear on the application bar (image 1). During the save all 4 cores will be at 100% (image 2). Eventually IV will have eaten 8 of my 12 gigs of ram and windows will inform me to "save open files and close application" due to insufficient ram. At this point I save (albeit slowly), close all open assemblies, and the allocated ram decreases by ~5%. Then restart IV to begin digging the hole again.
Edit: The assembly is large but not giant; 300 unique parts, 2000 components.
My coworker does not appear to have this issue. We are using identical application options and I do not have 'Quick File Open' enabled (App Options/File).
Running Win 7 (x64) and Build 170, Release: 2014RTM.

Every time I open and image in CS5 for viewing and then close it, then I cannot delete or do anything with it in Explorer or Bridge. I get the 'being used by another program' message and I am unable to do anything with the image. After I then close CS5 the problem goes away and I can delete or move the image without any problem. I have only tried it with .jpg files so far. Is there some bug in a new update or what is going on and how can I stop it? It is a real pain in the tuchas to always have to close CS5 and then open it again when I simply want to see an image! My machine is an I-7 2600, Win7 64-bit with 36GB RAM and another GB on the Vid card, and all drives are muli-TB so I cannot see any problem with the space or hardware?

When I attempt to move or rename a file that was recently open in Photoshop I get a Windoze message that the file is still in use by a program. If I close Photoshop I have full access to the file. Closing and restarting Photoshop just to move a file or rename a folder is a real pain.
Windows XP Pro, Photoshop CS2 and CS3Extended on 3 computers.

I'm on Win7x64 with 8GB of RAM and all PsCS6 updates. Have Bridge and Ps open. Open image (jpg or psd or .CR2 with shift double-click) from Bridge into Ps then close image in Ps (with or without making any edits). Try to rename the Bridge folder in which the closed image resides. Bridge wont let me, says image is being used by another application. Have to close Ps before Bridge will allow me to rename the folder.

When a draw a marquee, the tooltip says 100x100. When I let go, it changes to 104x104, or 102x102. It varies. But it never stays at what I let go at.I have the latest updates (Photoshop CS6 13.0.1). Yes, I've tried both a mouse and my Magic Trackpad. Yes, I've tried both GPU on and off.

I am editing at 100%, with square pixels, and no feather.
Â
EVERY time I release the mouse button in CS6 (fully updated), the Info window shows the marquee dimenstions shrink by either 1 or 2 pixels (and I see the marquee visibly move as well). This make it IMPOSSIBLE to accurately to certain kinds of editing. I have to go back to my old CS3 to be as productive! (Current workaround: edit at 200%... but I can't see all I need that way.)
Â
I am definitely not moving the mouse, because a) it is EVERY time, b) it is never more than 2 pixels, c) it is always a shrink, not an increase, and d) I use a trackpad: my finger is off the pad and no movement is possible, then I let go of the button and the numbers change.
Â
Is there some workaround/fix, or is this just another bug?

I am using corel x3 a long time but never, never had this kind of problem. When i work in corel enviorenment after i have finished my work i go to save my work. But then is the problem It Saves the file with Large Memory on it. let's say if the file normally would be 200 K, now it saves with 3 MB. And if i import some other files in my work then the saved file will be even bigger. If i Delete the files that were imported The Saved File will be Again the same SIZE ! Even if a take one part of the file, let's say if i import only one small text and put it in another file and save it like that, the saved file will be 2 MB. I had a lots of problems, i had saved files on this way with 23-24 MB and when i open them it takes like forever. When you look that file in corel it has nohing in it, absolutely nothing that should be 24 MB. But all of my important work is in that files how to make all things back to normal again,

I do have problem with my newly installed CorelDraw X5. Before X5 we used Corel 12 in our company.
I have project file (150 MB) with lots of text, bitmaps, vectors - about 100 pages. File opens but I can't save it. I always get OUT OF MEMORY error. I even tried to divide this file into 2 smaller parts but still doesn't work.
What I noticed - Corel X5 after clean start (without opened project) takes about 80MB of RAM in task manager. When I open project usage changes from 80MB to 1,2GB. While saving it takes 1,6GB of RAM and it crashes.
To compare - Corel 12 and after opening same project file Corel 12 takes much less of memory - about 770MB and it works without problem.Â
Where from comes this memory usage difference?
My PC:
Windows 7 - 32bit
4GB of RAM
Intel Core2Duo 2 x 3.0GHz
700GB free space on drive C:

I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong here. I have CS5 at work (CS6 at home is what's giving me an issue) and I could paint away for days if I wanted to, but with CS6 it randomly cuts out in the middle of using it.

Sometimes when I mask an image - or actually - mask a group of several complex images, when I release the mask it is impossible to ungroup the images. Is there a way to make masked groups but then not have that happen?

Just upgraded to 32gigs vs the 16 I had and it's working, tested with system reporting programs, etc. And They all show the 32gigs of memory. Went into PS to preferences to change memory usage by PS and it still only shows 14769 of available memory.
Â
Do I need to reinstall PS or what to get it to see the new memory total?

This is on Win 7 64, PS 64

I have an HP Pavilion 730. I have purchased the upgrade to CS4 and it has been working for a while. Now all of a sudden, when I open the program, the computer goes "boink" and a message comes up that says:
The instruction at "Ox77e78804" referenced memory at "0x0at1a1470". The memory could not be written. Click OK to terminate or click cancel to debug program. No matter which one I do, it shuts down CS4 totally?

I have been working on a large group of DNG's and I'm noticing that as I proceed through the edits my computer memory seems to be 'not releasing'. Example: Select photo, process it in RAW, open it in Photoshop CS3, edit, save and CLOSE the image. My computer memory does not seem to be refreshed when I close the image and eventually, after several images, I have to close the application to retrieve the memory. I am running on a PC Vista with 3 gig of memory (max my operating system will work with).

I made a javascript which has to convert and edit 18000 PDF's (pages) to arround 103.000 small images. I use ExtendScript Toolkit 2 to load a small file with all the file locations. Then each file will be opened and edited (one by one). This works fine and there are no real peaks in memory usage.
I let photoshop use arround 1500MB from the 1600 available RAM (Preferences -> Performance). I've never seen the whole system use more then 1200MB (2000MB available).
Despite that there is enough memory, the script stops working with the text "General photoshop error occurred ... this functionality because there is not enough memory (RAM)" in the status bar from ExtendScript.
When I restart the script, it will continue where it stopped and the next file will be converted without a problem.
The PDF file is not the problem and memory usage in general is not a problem.

I've got a Core2Duo Dell with 4GB of RAM running 32 bit XP Pro. My copy of CS3 sees about half of that RAM. I understand there is a "switch" in XP's Boot.ini that allows PS to read more then the 2GB.
I've read the above MS page & I can't figure out what to do.

When I try to save any of my work in photoshop as a jpeg (not large files-even only 5Mb size ones) it comes up with an error message saying not enough Ram to save. IM using windows xp, I have 2.5Gigs of ram, 100Gigs free space on C drive and 100gigs free space on my other drive (J:). I have checked the scratch disk prefernce and allocated 65% of ram to memory. I have also made my J: drive the number one scratch disk and C:drive as number 2. I have defragged my computer, and made sure no other programs ar running at the same time when im using photoshop. i have checked for viruses and spyware...and it still wont save....

I've installed PS CS a week ago and began to use it with stuff from my new
Panasonic FZ20 camera. Tried with .tif and .jpg pictures.
The problem: no matter which kind or size(!) (from 500k to 10M) of pictures
I'm trying to open, it takes it a very long time: opening about 30-40sec,
saving about 2 minutes. At the time the picture is being saved, the PC just
"freezes". I'f I'm waiting, everything returns to normal, but if I'm clicking
Alt-Ctrl-Del, PS stops and I have to open it again.
I'm using a relative powerful machine, P4 3.2, Asus Mobo and Asus 9200 video
card, 1G Mem, 300G HDs (defrgmented...) XP SP2 and so on...
Maybe there is any setup I'm missing at PS ...
At least, I can focus on the REAL Problem :
1. Ctrl-alt-del --> Processes
2. Turning on PS. --> It takes about 40M mem.
3. Opening a new file, about 35 x 25 inches and begining to scribble. -->
the memory it uses begins to "grow" up to 240M and then the proggie stops
responding. CPU at 50%.
4. Leaving it for about 5 min. and returning, it works (still using about
240M memory...) but it freezes every several seconds. The memoy is freed
only by turning the program off.

2008 MacBoo Pro with the NVIDIA GeForce 8600M GT 512 MB graphics card tried running Photoshop CS6 under Mac OS X 10.7.4?
Â
On my MacBook Pro, PS CS6 launches; however, any action results in an out of memory error. The CS6 versions of After Effects, Premiere Pro and Illustrator all launch and run as expected under 10.7.4.
Â
If I switch to my Mac OS X 10.6.8 startup volume, Photoshop CS6 runs as expected. I have support cases open with Adobe, NVidia and Apple. Adobe thinks I need to update the display drivers. NVidia says display drivers must be provided by Apple. Apple says that the display drivers are current. The Apple support agent said that he can escalate the case if the issue can be reproduced on more than one computer.
Â
I'd love to keep my MacBook Pro running another year or so without having to reboot in 10.6.8 every time I need to use Photoshop. I'd stay with 10.6.8, but of course iCloud requires 10.7.4. I have not tried Mac OS X 10.8 yet, but it's on my troubleshooting list.
Also, PS CS6 runs fine under Mac OS X 10.7.4 on my 2010 iMac.

It was already a problem with CS4 but it's worse with CS5. Under CS4 it was regularly necessary to me to relaunch the appli to empty the memory (even without image, after use, CS4 indicated n Giga in the window of the processes)The same phenomenon with CS5, but moreover, if I have some one about ten images in display, in the course of processings the functions spend in break the time to put in memory (swap) of the data on the hard disk... In the course of this type of processing I exceed hardly 5 Go...For information I work under Vista 64 bits - 24 Go of lively memory (17 available Go for Photoshop), processor Intel I7 930It seems to me that there is no reason that Photoshop keeps(guards) in memory history after closure(lock) of a photo!

 since I use the newest Photoshop version I´m faced with tons of perfomance issues. Although I love CS6 and CC for the speed and performance, those pop-ups "not enough memory to proceed.."
I´m working on a good machine, so it can´t be the system performance because I´ve never had similar problems with CS5. I don´t want to paste any windows reports again and again, or talking about recently installed plug-ins.
Or even re-installing PS over and over again... Because, again: I´ve never had any issues with CS5!I´m talking about irrational memory warnings when saving for web and devices, or even saving simple, small jpeg files. I´ve more than 4 gb ram free on my system when working with PS, so.. what the h.. is going on?
