Nvm I got plagued by this one too out of nowhere when i just watched a YT vid and checked emails this morning. Totally scared the heck out of me.Upgraded my M3 iMac (16GB/1TB) to Tahoe 26.0.1 yesterday. Used it early this morning for a couple of hours then put it to sleep by pressing the Touch ID button. Woke it up 4 hours later and saw an error message I've never seen before... somehow my Messages app was using 47GB (!!!) and everything had "paused" as a result. I did a hard restart and everything seems fine again. A half-hour later Messages is happy at 186MB. Not necessarily blaming this on Tahoe 26.0.1 but I've been using Macs since 2003 and this is the first time this has ever happened -- barely 24 hours after installing the update. Just sayin'.
PS -- The error is "Your system has run out of application memory."
Genuinely can’t believe it! Apple fixed the bug where the In-App Ratings & Reviews setting would reenable itself after every startup/restart of my Mac has been fixed. This has been persistent on my end since the Mac App Store was introduced somewhere during the Mac OS X Snow Leopard days. Only took them 15 years. 🥲
I know it's been a while but I just got caught-up on this thread. Nothing at all beyond the "default" settings. No wallpapers, no huge attachments... it's set to keep messages for 30 Days and I often manually delete 'em sooner than that. I'm old school, my usage is very basic, I rarely have more than 3-4 tabs open on Safari. The only "weird" thing when my system crashed was the new Phone app was active as I'd answered a phone call thru my iMac hours earlier. Normally I only run Safari, Mail, and Messages. It's been three weeks and no further issues.Rly? I never had any issues with that before as I have 48GB in my Mac but had you used any wallpapers on messages app?
Did you send any messages that had gifs or any large files?
Same here when that happened to my MacBook Pro 💻 one time; but I had multiple tabs open on Safari. I was checking my email.I know it's been a while but I just got caught-up on this thread.
