AdressBookSourceSync uses permanently more 1 GB of RAM

Hi all

AdressBookSourceSync uses more 1 GB of Ram on my MacBookPro, running on EL captain in 2013.

Questions that I could find on this forum refer all to OS X Versions and I have been unable to solve this problem.

Thank you

Kind regards

Felix

Please test after taking each of the steps that you have not already tried it. Back up the data before you start.

Step 1

Leave the address book or Contacts application runs.

Triple-click anywhere in the line of text below on this page to select this option:

~/Library/Caches/com.apple.AddressBookSourceSync

Right-click or Ctrl-click on the highlighted line and select

Services ▹ reveal in Finder (or just to reveal)

of the contextual menu.*, a file must open with a selected item. Move selected item to the trash.

Repeat with each of these lines:

~/Library/Containers/com.apple.AddressBook
~/Library/Containers/com.apple.AddressBook.ContactsAccountsService

* If you do not see the item context menu copy the selected text in the Clipboard by pressing Control-C key combination. In the Finder, select

Go ▹ go to the folder...

from the menu bar and paste it into the box that opens (command-V). You won't see what you pasted a newline being included. Press return.

Step 2

If you use iCloud, uncheck that box Contacts in the iCloud preferences window. Press return to confirm, or click on store on Mac in the dialog box that opens.

If you synchronize contacts with other network services, disable synchronization in the preferences window accounts Internet.

Step 3

This step applies only if you can launch Contacts. In the list of groups on the left side of the Contacts window, select all on my Mac. If this group does exist or is empty, skip this step. Otherwise, in the menu bar, select

Exporting files ▹... ▹ Contacts Archives...

Save archive exported to the desktop.

Step 4

Exit Contacts runs. Reveal the next item in the Finder as you did in step 1:

~/Library/Application Support/AddressBook

If you know when the problem started, and you can restore this folder from a previous backup without losing the contacts, make and test. Otherwise, move the folder to the desktop, leaving the window open for now.

Step 5

Launch Contacts. Your contacts and groups will be gone. If you followed step 3, and then double-click the file created in step and confirm that you want to import from it. Your contacts and groups reappear.

Step 6

If you followed step 2, reverse it. Test. If the problem is resolved, delete the address book folder and the file to archive on the desktop, and then close the open folder window.

Otherwise, exit Contacts again and put the folder AddressBook back where he was, by crushing the newest that will have been created in its place.

Step 7

Back to step 3, but this time choose export vCard... in the menu export. Continue as in steps 4 to 6. All contacts must be preserved, but you may lose some metadata such as membership in a group.

    Hello!

    I am a bigger fan of microsoft and want to work with you all but my age is not perfect for working with you all, so, for now I just know every thing about windows...

    (1) use 64-bit 4 GB ddr3 ram me gives better performance than 32-bit...

    With only 4 GB it is not to change to 64-bit because it actually uses the more than 32-bit ram.

  • Ubuntu 15.04: firefox crashes, plugin-container using 90% CPU, 11 GB of RAM

    Once in a while (maybe once a week on average), Firefox crashes suddenly, and check the 'top' shows that the plugin-container uses 90% and more of CPU and RAM (I have 12 GB of RAM). So I kill firefox and when I restart, it works normally again.

    For extensions, I only LeechBlock (and changes of Ubuntu). For plugins I have Flash, Java, OpenH264 Video Codec and (apparently) iTunes application detector. Flash and Java are both updated.

    Because the problem somewhat rare occurrence, I was not able to reproduce, or to track down any kind of cause, but I thought he deserved the description anyway; a web search doesn't show anyone else reported the same problem.

    FredMcD not know if the OP was using Firefox on Windows and not on Linux as only your first link is applicable.

    The Flash Player and Java Plugins can be guilty. You must set them to "Ask to activate" so that they will work when you allow.

    I have a strong enough Linux system I find Flash Player setting to "Ask to activate" can still make a big difference as the Flash videos and ads will not play unless so authorized and I (i5 - 4690 k and 16 GB of Ram).

  • Can I connect my Mac Mini 2011 my end of 2014 Mac Mini using Thunderbold cable to double the RAM?

    My Mac Mini end of 2014 cannot add everything exceeds 8 GB RAM cable.

    I don't know why Mac was given the opportunity to add more RAM as applications become more and more wide and double my RAM will allow me to run applications of additional third party all in post processing my images.

    I have my Mac Mini 2011 with a Thunderbolt Plug and a delay in 2014 with 2 Sockets Thunderbolt

    I just want to connect two computers so that I can use 8 + 8 = 16 GB of RAM for photography post-processing.

    Buy everything just a Thunderbolt Apple cable to connect two computers and be speed up along?

    I'll probably have to update the old OS Mini at El Capitan

    Thank you!

    No. but you can connect both via TB for quick file sharing

  • Is it allowed to use 1 GB + 256 MB of RAM in Satellite P25-s607

    I have a Satellite P25-s607, and I wanted to know the following:

    (1) if it is allowed to install only a single 1 GB stick of RAM next to a 256 MB stick? Do I lose any speed performance this versus 2 sticks of 1 GB (in assuming that I use less than 1 GB of RAM, most of the time)? It seems that there is a performance hit since this model supports dual-channel memory (according to crucial.com)

    (2) I guess that's the correct module (better) to use: [1 GB, 200-pin SODIMM, DDR PC2700 | http://www.crucial.com/store/mpartspecs.aspx?mtbpoid=3B53A794A5CA7304] with specs:
    # Module size: 1 GB
    # Package: 200 - pin SODIMM
    # Feature: DDR PC2700
    # File: DDR PC2700 CL = 2.5 unbuffered NON ECC DDR333 2.5V 128Meg x 64

    (3) is there a reason to install BIOS 2.10? It is listed under under P25-S607-associated toshiba support site, but the only change it says is: "Added support for the D1 Pentium 4 CPU stepping.

    (4) is it possible to install a better processor? I guess not...

    (5) what graphics card (it came with NVIDIAî Geforcea? ¢ of the FX Go5200 graphics controller; external video memory 64 MB DDR)? Also I guess not...

    Thanks for any help!

    Hello

    With regard to the number of question:

    (1) the laptop can be upgraded up to 2 GB of RAM, and this is why you can use a 1 GB of RAM and a 256 MB module. But it of always better if you want to use identical memory modules. It is better for performance, but I doubt you will notice a performance boost.

    (2) Yes, you must use the 200-pin SODIMM, DDR PC2700 modules

    (3) If your laptop runs then I put t problem see no reason for an update of the BIOS

    (4) usually it's s not advisable to upgrade the processor because of a superior heat dissipation and overheating due to better CPU performance

    (5) it is certainly not possible because the GPU is attached on the map

    Hi, I have Oracle 10 g XE installed in my labtop, and I can't connect using SQL * more.
    I can connect using the User Interface of navig however, I could do after the following procedure to change the password for the sys account:
    -Open a command prompt

    -On the line "Enter user name", enter the sysdba virtue
    -On the SQL > prompt, type alter user sys identified by NewPassword;

    But the thing is that even if I am able to connect using sys/NewPassword from my browser UI, I don't get the same result when do this using the SQL prompt.

    What I try to do is the following:
    SQL > connect sys/NewPassword
    Can I get first a warming of the planet by saying I should use sysdba or sysoper to connect to the system account, but none of those who work.

    Can anyone advice me on this subject?

    Thanks in advance

    Does make sense at all?

    You really need to Read The Fine Manual
    http://download.Oracle.com/docs/CD/E11882_01/server.112/e16508/TOC.htm

    When you log in as USER "SYS" DB must be described as 'AS SYSDBA'

    sqlplus
    / as sysdba
    SHOW USER;
    -line above indicates that you are now connected to the DB as "SYS"!

  • Allow the use of more than 4 GB of RAM on 32-bit Windows

    Hello, I am running Windows 7 32 bit on a computer that has more than 4 GB of RAM (10 GB to be exact), but I understand that Windows 7 32 bits by default can only use 4 GB of RAM. My processor No. Execute (Data Execution Prevention) active and PAE (physical address Extension) also active. Although it seems that EAP is that the rest of my RAM visible and not usable (which makes me question why something as useless as that would be understood as a feature). Is there anyway I can get Windows 7 is therefore able to use all of my RAM? I would prefer a solution that won't let my totally unstable system but nothing will work.

    The link below will give you a pretty good idea what exactly the EAP.

  • Internet Explorer 8 develops in the memory; use possibly 1.43 gigabytes of RAM; crashes; Help!

    So a few days ago I installed Internet Explorer 8. I was sick of IE7 suck as much memory up, nearly 1.5 gigabytes of RAM. But I was wrong, that the upgrade would be useful. Whenever I start IE8, it occupies about 50 000 kilobytes of memory, not so bad. 30 minutes and 15 pages later, Internet Explorer is up to 400,000, that's not that bad, right? Nope. 45 minutes later, Internet Explorer is slowing down and using a whooping kilobytes 1.43 million, almost 3/4 of my RAM. 1 minute later, IE8 works all together. My first suspicions lead me to believe that modules * have been behind this madness, I have so removed and uninstalled all the. Did not work. Delete all temporary files. No beef. I searched the web for answers, but I found nothing. The problem is so boring that I use my old Sony VAIO, instead of my Vista. Help, please!

    LVMaxfield,
    Thank you for visiting the Microsoft Answers community forum.

    Here are some things you can try to solve this problem.  It is not normal that IE, either 7 or 8.

    Try running IE8 with disabled modules. First make sure that all instances of
    IEXPLORE. EXE are completed in the Task Manager (press Ctrl + Shift + Esc your)
    keyboard, processes tab, complete the IEXPLORE process all. (EXE).

    Go to start > programs > Accessories > system tools > Internet Explorer (No.)
    Add ons) to start IE8 without any add-ons. Try to use the browser and see if
    It works now.

    If it's work, start IE8 normally, go to tools (if the menu bar
    does not appear, press the ALT of the keyboard) > manage add-ons. Here,
    Disable all add-ons that you need not under "currently loaded.

    In addition to the above, you can try to disable the protection of memory of IE8 and
    see if it helps. Start > Control Panel > Internet Options > advanced > under
    'Security', uncheck the box "enable memory protection help ease online
    attacks > OK

    Otherwise, you can use the free Microsoft for IE8 phone Support
