Q: Your System has Run out of Application memory

I upgraded to Mavericks from Mountain Lion, and I have been getting the error message "Your System has Run out of Application memory", and I am forced to restart the computer to be able to keep working.

 

I have been monitoring the Activity Monitor and I have not found a process that is increasing the amount of memory used. I have seen a proliferation of processes.

 

I have an iMac 27-inch, Late 2012 with a 3.4 GHz Intel Core i7 and 24 GB 1600 MHz DDR3.


iMac, OS X Mavericks (10.9), 27-inch Late 2012; 3.4 GHz i7; 24GB

    With the only internet navigator that doesn´t have problem is with chrome. But everytime I use firefox or safari the message appears, and I need firefox because chrome doesn´t open the pages I need I don´t know why.

    Memory Clean just makes it worse because it is using RAM to run.

    It's a test, we'll see if it makes a difference.

     

    And, download a copy of Etrecheck, run it and post the report here.

    And by emptying operating caches it will slow the computer down until the caches are refilled, leaving the Mac in the same state it was before all that time wasting.

    Do you use a Blackberry?

     

    And remove all of these from the login items, they can be put back and checked one by one, later.

    You have a lot of Blackberry stuff running, look in your report, everything with BB or the name Blackberry is a potential problem and you don't even need it?

     

    Was this a used Mac? or did you ever have a BB?

     

    USBOverdrivehelper is a 3rd party driver for a non Apple mouse or keyboard, do you have a mouse or keyboard not made by Apple?

     

    There is also a tablet driver, PenTablet, do you use a tablet?

     

    And finally are you running Windows on your Mac?

    I bought the mac new. I used to have a blackberry, but I don´t need it now. Do I only desinstall the app?

     

    The USBOverdrivehelper is for the pen tablet I use that is not apple. I can´t desinstall that ones.

    I do run windows but in the VMware Fusion App that is closed right now.

     

    I have been using this computer with these configurations and applications for more than a year. It just start presenting problems after the OS X Maverick 10.9.3 upgrade I did yesterday. Before that, it was just fine.

    The issues could be a blessing in desguise since it's showing files that are using resources that you no longer use.

     

    Try running the combo updater to refresh your files. This has helped other users with this last update.

     

    OS X Mavericks 10.9.3 (Update (Combo)

    http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1746

     

    MORE INFO ON WHY RUNNING COMBO FIXES ISSUES

     

     

    Apple updates available from the Software Update application are incremental updates. Delta updates are also incremental updates and are available from Apple Downloads (software updates are generally smaller than delta updates). The Combo updates contain all incremental updates and will update files that could have become corrupted.

     

     

    Combo updaters will install on the same version as they're applying--no need to roll back or do a clean install. So if you think you've got a borked 10.8.4 install from a regular update, just run the 10.8.4 Combo Updater on that system.

     

     

    "Delta" updaters can only take you from one version to the next. For example: 10.9.1 to 10.9.2. If somehow the 10.9.2 is missing something it should have, and that something isn't changed between 10.9.1 and 10.9.2 it will still be stale after the delta update.

    The BB software has a history of problems (and I do not think there is a Mavericks version at all). You must remove it. Go to Blackberrys site and look in the support section for the correct removal method. Dragging it to the trash may not be correct.

     

    Do that first.
