Not enough Ram [OSX 10.13.2]

I have experienced no problems previously with the newest version of PS until yesterday when it started sending pop-up messages saying it could not complete a task (filter-pixelate-crystalize) because I didn't have enough RAM.  The program also is beginning to lock up for no apparent reason and no error codes.  I have to force a shutdown.  My computer has 16GB of RAM which should be enough for almost any task I want to do.  I use PS strictly for photo editing and all photos are kept on external drives.  After my third try using the filter I noticed that my HD storage showed only 5GB left.  Shutting down the computer and restarting brought it back to normal at 130GB.  I am currently running the computer in safe mode to see if that helps and it doesn't.

Any suggestions would be appreciated.  A copy of system info is below.

Thanks, Susan

With large image and filters may need to use more resources.  You Preferences performance is set to allow  Photoshop use up the 68% of your system RAM  try changing that setting to 80% and restart Photoshop.  See if you can use that filter on your document.

You also seem to have duplicate plug-in installed and disabled you should correct that. I do not use a mac so I can not tell you how to do that....

Had the same problem, Didn't know what to do, changed ram to 100%, but it didn't work. I went back in and opened up preferences > performance and changed the gpu settings to basic and was able to save the file. Probably not a long term solution, but I didn't lose any of my work.

Never set RAM usage to 100%! Other applications and processes need memory too. Even Photoshop plugins run outside Photoshop's address space and need their own RAM.

 

Around 70% is normally pretty optimal. If you have a lot of RAM, 32 GB and up, you can push that to 80 or so. But never 100!

 

Most likely you're running out of scratch disk space. Most people severely underestimate the free disk space needed for the scratch disk. 100 GB should be considered absolute minimum for most normal use. 500 GB or more if you're working with big files.

Another update.  Spent all day on the phone with Apple techs (by the way, the service was excellent.)  It was determined that the computer was fine but the problem most probably lies with PS or maybe my external HD.  They eventually had me pull three photos, one from the computer, one from each of two external HDs.  I put them on my desktop, opened all three at once in PS, ran all three through the program I was trying to use, one photo after another with all three open.  Worked perfectly.  Not sure where to go from here but they still think it may be PS related or perhaps a problem with my external hard drives.  My next step may be to transfer all photos to an new external HD and repair the old one.  What a chore that will be.

Thanks for all the help everyone.

Susan.

Thanks for taking the time to help out.  I increased performance as you suggested but it didn't help.  As far as the duplicate plug-ins go, I can't find them so I am unable to delete them.

I attempted to save the photo I was working on so I wouldn't have to keep duplicating the steps I took to get to the RAM error message and it would not allow me to save my work as the file was greater than 2 gb.

I do not know what the image format file limmits are in Apple's unix file system. To save image file over 2GB size using windows one must use  Tiff or or PSB files over 4GB only PSB can be used.  How big is your image and how many layers do you have?
