Hi,
I have had my MacBook Pro for four months over the last couple of weeks I have repeatedly been getting the 'Your system has run out of application memory' message.
I only have Safari and Finder open, screenshot to show this.
Any help on how to rectify this would be appreciated.
Screenshot of my 'about this Mac' in case that helps :)
Thanks.
MacBook Pro 13″, macOS 11.1

Thank you for posting the report.
I suspect you have an app called Silhouette Studio (or something with Silhouette in its name). It is using a ridiculous amount of memory. Quit the app by opening it and pressing command+q, then restart your mac. Only have the app running when you need to use it, because it clearly has an issue with hogging memory. That should solve the problem :)
Yea, that is the app I use the most on this machine. I will do that. Thanks.
Hi, thanks for your help. My problem has been resolved. Cheers.
Great to hear :)
maybe contact the developer of the app and let them know.
