Several users reported out of memory errors.
Very often, they did not enter units for the crop tool, resulting to the crop tool cropping an image to for instance, 1920 in x 1080 in at 300ppi, resulting in an out of memory error.
There is a KB article about it:
Error: "Scratch disk is full" when cropping an image with dimensions and resolution specified in crop options (Photoshop CS)
Issue
When you try to crop an image in Photoshop CS and enter width, height and resolution values in the crop options, you receive the error that the scratch disk is full and are unable to crop the image.
Details
If you leave the crop options blank, you can crop the image successfully.
Solution
Do one of the following:
Solution 1: Specify measurement units when cropping.
Enter the desired measurement units in the width and height crop options. For example, enter 100px for pixels, or 1in for inches.
Solution 2: Set the default measurement units.
To set the default measurement units:
1. Choose Edit > Preferences > Units & Rulers (Windows) or Photoshop > Preferences > Units & Rulers (Mac OS).
2. Select a measurement unit for Type under the Units section of the Preferences dialog box. For example, select Pixels.
3. Click OK.
