Illustrator Help!
I have to edit one of my projects for tomorrow, but whenever I try to open it (it always opened before, how else would I have completed it) it says that there isn't enough memory to open illustration. The file is only 2MB is size. I tried opening my other Illustrator documents, and get the same message. Anyone know what the problem is?
|
Yes, not enough scratch space on the disk. erase or move some file. Empty the recycling bin, and do some cleanup then try again.
|
How can I erase this file if it's the only copy I have? Is there a way to clean up scratch disks?
|
Sorry, i typed to fast there. I meant erase un-needed files on the harddrive. Is your HDD within 1gb of full? If so, this is a common cause of this problem.
Have you tried opening this file on another computer, perhaps in a lab on your campus somewhere? |
I did. The file works on the computer I use in class. My HD still has 20GB of free space on it left.
|
Maybe the case is a available physical memory. Available RAM.
Or I might have no idea what I am talking about. |
I have 1GB of memory and a 120HDD with around 20GB of space left. It started after I saved my 36MB final project file. When I tried to open it after that, it started giving me that message.
|
Try doing a disk cleanup of your HD, then afterwards if the problem persists, a defragmentation of the drive is the next logical step. Your drive may still have a lot of memory left, but if the occupied memory that you have is all cluttered, then it becomes that much harer to access the free memory.
Get it? |
I did disk cleanup. Was surprised that it freed 10GB of space on my HDD, but that still didn't solve the problem.
My drive was defragged about 2 months ago. It couldn't have been "fragged" that fast sine I haven't really installed anything new. |
