    From the current configuration guide for R9:

    Apple iMac:
    21.5-inch, Mid 2011, 2.5GHz Intel Core i5 or faster
    21.5-inch, Mid 2011, 2.8GHz Intel Core i7 or faster or 27-inch, Mid 2011, 2.7GHz Intel Core i5 or faster
    27-inch, Mid 2011, 3.4GHz Intel Core i7 Operating System: Mac OS X 10.8 in 64bit mode
    RAM: 8GB minimum, 12GB accepable, 16GB or more recommended

    Any of this familiar?

    Otherwise, you may want to do a purge — uninstall/reinstall.

    For all the similarities, the full license version is not identical in operation and requirements with the Lite.

    Lite is limited to HD resolutions. Full is not. The cause of your crashes and the error is that you have a GPU with too little memory. It probably wasn’t an issue in lite because you were working in HD only.

    It would behoove you to look at and follow the DaVinci Resolve config guide.

    In the full version I cant see anything in the mediapool. even .mov files also looking corrupt. And i am getting “your gpu memory full’ all time.
    I resinstalled the software. still no luck.

    Thanks,

    I suggest to try uninstall, then install 9.1.3 from our support web site. Then let us know how if that helps.

    If you are using a ATI GPU, you need to be on Mac OSX 10.8.3.
