This came up when trying to export a processed image - clicked ok and went to another picture tried again and the same, went to check disk space and that's fine, went to export again and worked. Anyone else had this issue?
 
Can you open the picture from the browser?
 
How much memory do you have on your computer, and did you have any other applications running at the same time. It's also possible that some background operations were running and had used up temporarily the available memeory.

If it continues to happen you might want to get a memory monitor app installed and have a look at what memory is being used
 
Thanks for the advice, I ended up restarting Lightroom and all ok again now.

Think my laptop has 4gb memory, never had an issue before tonight.
 
Adobe recommend a minimum 2GB RAM for Lightroom, so in theory it looks like you are OK there.
If it's only recently started throwing up this error, are there any programs running in the background that could be using memory that you are not aware of.
You can use Windows Task Manager to see if there are any programs running In the background, but I find Process Explorer more useful, since it is more comprehensive than Task Manager.
Process Explorer is a free download from Microsoft.
 
Thanks for the replies - it has been fine since restarting PC - weird one
