Outlook 2007 - "Cannot display the folder....

[KC]

"Cannot display the folder. There is not enough free memory to run this
program. Quit one or more programs, and then try again."

As you might guess, there are ample resources available and all other
applications work and behave as expected (without warnings/errors).

The issue is very likely a red herring, but looking to get feedback as to if
this is a corruption issue in a PST/OST (we are running Outlook in cached
exchange mode).

Outlook is at SP1 level

This error was in the PST, but then I saw that same error when looking at
the list of to-do items, so its may have an indirect effect on the OST?!?!

Once the user sees this error, it will apply to almost all folders (with the
exception of the inbox (which is in the OST). I have had the user reboot and
the problem has gone away…

Any thoughts, suggestions, comments?

I am having the same problem,

"Cannot display the folder. There is not enough free memory to run this
program. Quit one or more programs, and then try again."

Today, I am getting the message when trying to expand Sent Items. Overall
configuration is similar (2007 SP1, XP SP3, relatively high powered unit with
lots of memory.) Outlook has run without problem for some time until this
started occurring within the last few weeks. Once it starts, restarting
Outlook is the only cure. I've generally had the problem opening Favorites.

Any help would be appreciated.

Hi,

Thanks for the response.

That did not seem to work and the problem seems to be getting worse. What
was once limited to Public Folder Favorites not occurs almost all the time
with Public Folders as a whole and Sent Items & Drafts as well.

(Fully updated XP with Outlook 2007 with a large (10gb) .OST file; 2GB Ram;
Intel T2500, 2GHz processor.)

I have the same problem as Frank, i tried renaming the XML file but it didn't
work, and my problem is also now getting worse, no the user can't see the
Draft and several other folders. I've tried renaming the OST file, to load a
new one from the exhange server, however that did not seem to fix it.


Any more suggestions?

Hi Artem,

Our problem ended up being the size of the data file (.ost in our case.) We
use Public Folders, and Public Folders - Favorites, extensively and our data
file was over 10GB. Once we the file size to approximately 8GB the problem
went away. I note that we did not have this issue with Outlook 2003.

I hope this helps.

Thanks for that Frank, i've solved the problem. For me it was the Business
Contact Manager addon in Outlook that was causing the grief, after disbling
that everything went back to normal.
