Hi Fellow Ancient iMac Users,
Please can someone let me know how to fix the following error:
As I was working on 50MB images in Photoshop5.5 on my old iMac Five Colours, and I was having to save after every command, I (rather stupidly😱) tried to change my Available Memory to the maximum of around 17000.
The poor dear decided to promptly shutdown. I restarted, as this seems to fix 90% of old iMac problems.
As it was opening the desktop and only two windows, it came up with this warning:
"There is not enough memory to complete this command. Please try closing some opened windows or restarting computer. Closing open windows might increase available memory." There were two buttons: 'Restart' and 'Retry'.
I tried clicking on both, to no avail🙁
I have also tried to telephone my Mac Guru friend, stage name "Blue Nexus", but he has other plans, just like Despicable Chang in Dr Who!
I would greatly appreaciate any constructive ideas! I need to get started on the work for a friend on Photoshop tomorrow...
Thank you.
