how can i fix the low memory on my computer cuz everytime i download somethin it says memory 2 low plz help me

Q:

A: Since your issue is with downloading new things, closing excess open applications probably won't help much. But if you're running your browser, Photoshop and a music player and you don't need to have those open, closing them could be a temporary solution. Take a look at how much RAM you have, and also how much of your hard drive is full. Take some time to delete any things you have stored on your hard drive that you don't need. (Pay special attention to large applications, games, and photos.) Burn things onto a disk if you need to, or use online storage if you have access to some online space. Make sure you don't have a large file as your desktop item, and that you don't have a bunch of start-up items, applications that launch as soon as you start up your computer. Make sure you don't have applications running invisibly, such as related to music players and mp3s. The long-term fix is to buy and have more memory installed onto your computer. This is something a lot of people have to have done. Your best bet is to find a reliable computer repair person in your area who can install it for you. It's easy, does not take long, and is not that expensive. (In the future, when asking about computer issues, try saying what type of computer you have, the software installed on it, and how much memory and disk space you have. People can then offer the most specific advice.)
