After installing Office2011 for Mac, I have lost math/greek fonts.  I can get them in 'safe mode' but not regular - how can I get these fonts back?

I installed MS-Office 2011 for Mac, after deleting the old 2004 version.  I have hundreds of slides in powerpoint presentations generated over the years, that contain math/greek symbols - these characters have disappeared in powerpoint 2011, replaced by a box with a squiggle in it.  These files are OK on a PC, and if I boot up the MBP in 'safe mode' the characters appear in the correct font.  How can I get Office 2011 to recognise the correct symbol font in regular mode?

  • Firefox won't start properly. The process begins in task manager, but the program doesn't start.I have restarted the computor, and updated my plug-ins. Don't know what to do next. It will open in safe mode, but not regularly.

    When we click on the icon to start firefox even though the process opens in task manager, the program screen doesn't open

    If it does work in Safe-mode then disable all extensions and then try to find which is causing it by enabling one at a time until the problem reappears.
    * Use "Disable all add-ons" on the [[Safe mode]] start window to disable all extensions.
    * Close and restart Firefox after each change via "File > Exit" (Mac: "Firefox > Quit"; Linux: "File > Quit")

  • After install of Mountain Lion I have no facetime. It is nowhere in hd and ap store will not allow download. Will I need to re-instal ML in order to get it back??

    After install of Mountain Lion I have no facetime. It is nowhere in hd and ap store will not allow download.
    Will I need to re-instal ML in order to get it back?

    Where are you, geographically?
    I might suggest:
    Give this a try:
    Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions - Lion/Mountain Lion
    Boot to the Recovery HD:
    Restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the COMMAND and R keys until the menu screen appears. Alternatively, restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the OPTION key until the boot manager screen appears. Select the Recovery HD and click on the downward pointing arrow button.
    Repair
    When the recovery menu appears select Disk Utility. After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list.  In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive.  If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported then click on the Repair Permissions button. When the process is completed, then quit DU and return to the main menu. Select Restart from the Apple menu.
    After this is completed download and install 10.8.4 Mountain Lion Update v10.8.4 (Combo).
    If this doesn't work, then reinstall Mountain Lion:

    Boot to the Recovery HD: Restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the COMMAND and R keys until the menu screen appears. Alternatively, restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the OPTION key until the boot manager screen appears. Select the Recovery HD and click on the downward pointing arrow button.
    Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions: Upon startup select Disk Utility from the main menu. Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions as follows.
    When the recovery menu appears select Disk Utility.

Wait until the operation completes, then quit DU and return to the main menu.
    Reinstall Lion/Mountain Lion: Select Reinstall Lion/Mountain Lion and click on the Continue button.
    Note: You will need an active Internet connection. I suggest using Ethernet if possible because it is three times faster than wireless.

  • When i double-click the mozilla icon, it doesn't start. In the task manager i noted that the process "firefox.exe" appears and desappear after 5 seconds. The problem remains in mozilla safe-mode, but not in windows safe-mode. Thks!

    Yesterday i installed the firefox 6.0 on my windows 7 computer. When i double-click the mozilla icon, it doesn't start. I opened the task manager and noted that the process "firefox.exe" appears and desappear after 5 seconds. I tried to start mozilla in safe mode but the problem remains. The only way to use mozilla in my computer is restarting the windows in safe-mode. Last thing: i already tried to reinstall the program. Please help me!

    I'm also using Windows 7 on a Lenovo U310 laptop.

  • After upgrading iPhoto for Yosemite I have lost virtually all my photos in iPhoto.  What's going on??

    Help!  I recently upgraded to Yosemite OS on my iMac desktop.  I then needed to upgrade iPhoto which I did yesterday.  Now, when I open my iPhoto icon there are only about 100 photos left of probably about 1,000.  I should mention that all the photos WERE there at first but then I moved my iPhoto Library to the dock and when I opened it, most were gone.  Does anyone know how I can get my photos back???  Please help.

    Ok
    It is best not to move your iPhoto library around and there is no need to have it  available from the dock - leave the iphoto libraries in your uses folder - to sitc between libraries hold dow the option key while lunching iphoto - use the resuling select library window to select the library you want - it will remain your default library until you switch again

  • Keyboard does not connect - have narrowed to a software issue as it works in safe mode, but do not know how to resolve the software issue

    I was in the process of connecting a Razer Blackwidow USB keyboard to my iMAC and something went wrong.
    The new keyboard doe not respond and now my bluetooth keyboard does not work either. No connectivity whatsoever.
    I've tried a number of things, including resetting the PRAM / NVRAM and SMC (interesting that the computer responds to the keyboard commands that are required to reset the PRAM). I also checked all the universal access setting to make sure nothing was interfering with normal keyboard operation.
    btw, blutooth seems to think the keyboard is connected I get a gree light. I can even go through the process of unpairing and pairing and it allows me to type in the numberical code to pair the keyboard, but after that, it still does not work.
    When I start the machine in safe mode, the keyboard works fine. So I've narrowed this down to a software problem. I tried to go to another user account to see if it's just associated with the current user, but since I have no keyboard connection at all, I can't type in a password, so that's no good.
    I've eliminated a number of applications that I have recently installed (including the Razer set up app) that might interfere with keyboard operation, but no luck.
    Any suggestions on how to go about tracking down this software issue?
    Thanks - musikman7

    Please read this whole message before doing anything.
    This procedure is a diagnostic test. It won’t solve your problem. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
    Third-party system modifications are a common cause of usability problems. By a “system modification,” I mean software that affects the operation of other software — potentially for the worse. The following procedure will help identify which such modifications you've installed. Don’t be alarmed by the complexity of these instructions — they’re easy to carry out and won’t change anything on your Mac.
    These steps are to be taken while booted in “normal” mode, not in safe mode. If you’re now running in safe mode, reboot as usual before continuing.
    Below are instructions to enter some UNIX shell commands. The commands are harmless, but they must be entered exactly as given in order to work. If you have doubts about the safety of the procedure suggested here, search this site for other discussions in which it’s been followed without any report of ill effects.
    Some of the commands will line-wrap or scroll in your browser, but each one is really just a single line, all of which must be selected. You can accomplish this easily by triple-clicking anywhere in the line. The whole line will highlight, and you can then either copy or drag it. The headings “Step 1” and so on are not part of the commands.
    Note: If you have more than one user account, Step 2 must be taken as an administrator. Ordinarily that would be the user created automatically when you booted the system for the first time. The other steps should be taken as the user who has the problem, if different. Most personal Macs have only one user, and in that case this paragraph doesn’t apply.
    Launch the Terminal application in any of the following ways:
    ☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
    ☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
    ☞ If you’re running Mac OS X 10.7 or later, open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Terminal in the page that opens.
    When you launch Terminal, a text window will open with a line already in it, ending either in a dollar sign (“$”) or a percent sign (“%”). If you get the percent sign, enter “sh” (without the quotes) and press return. You should then get a new line ending in a dollar sign.
    Step 1
    Copy or drag — do not type — the line below into the Terminal window, then press return:
    kextstat -kl | awk '!/com\.apple/{printf "%s %s\n", $6, $7}'
    Post the lines of output (if any) that appear below what you just entered (the text, please, not a screenshot.)
    Step 2
    Repeat with this line:
    sudo launchctl list | sed 1d | awk '!/0x|com\.(apple|openssh|vix)|edu\.mit|org\.(amavis|apache|cups|isc|ntp|postfix|x)/{print $3}'
    This time, you'll be prompted for your login password, which won't be displayed when you type it. You may get a one-time warning not to screw up. You don't need to post the warning.
    Note: If you don’t have a login password, you’ll need to set one before taking this step. If that’s not possible, skip to the next step.
    Step 3
    launchctl list | sed 1d | awk '!/0x|com\.apple|edu\.mit|org\.(x|openbsd)/{print $3}'
    Step 4
    ls -1A /e*/mach* {,/}L*/{Ad,Compon,Ex,Fram,In,Keyb,La,Mail/Bu,P*P,Priv,Qu,Scripti,Servi,Spo,Sta}* L*/Fonts 2> /dev/null
    Important: If you synchronize with a MobileMe account, your me.com email address may appear in the output of the above command. If so, anonymize it before posting.
    Step 5
    osascript -e 'tell application "System Events" to get name of every login item' 2> /dev/null
    Remember, steps 1-5 are all drag-and-drop or copy-and-paste, whichever you prefer — no typing, except your password. Also remember to post the output.
    You can then quit Terminal.

  • After my most recent update I have lost copy paste functions and can't drag items - please help

    I think this is a Java problem.  I went to Firefox and Mozilla home page and checked to see that my plug ins were up to date.  Firefox said it had turned off my Java because it was not up to date.  When I went to the Java page to update it, it only said Mac has its own Java updates and suggested I update through Apple.  Unfortunately, when I checked to see if Apple has any updates for my Java, there weren't any.
    After seeing that, I went to the link it had for "upgrade to the latest version" and this is what Java says:
    I guess I will look for Java help on the support pages here and see if anyone has any info.

  • My Mac starts up fine in safe mode, but freezes before the login screen in normal mode.

    I have the 2012 MBP, 4 GB of RAM, 500GB HD, 2.5GHz Intel i5 processor.  Everything worked fine, until one day it freezes all of a sudden.  I shut down and restarted.  The Apple logo appears with the loading animation underneath.  A few moments later, the animation disappears, and the mouse cursor appears.  This is normal.  What's not normal is that it stays on this screen forever.  I can't get to the login screen even after waiting sooo long.  Even restarting 5 times only repeats this problem.  I finally boot into safe mode.  I am able to login and get to the desktop in safe mode, but not normal mode.  Clearing every startup item in System Prefs, and in the startupitems folders does not solve the problem.  Disk utility says no problems.  Resetting PRAM does nothing.  Can anyone please tell me what I should do next?

    Do you hear the startup chimes?
    If so, then the startup disk may need repairing ...
    Launch Disk Utility located in HD > Applications > Utillities
    Select the startup disk on the left then select the First Aid tab.
    Click:  Verify Disk  (not Verify Disk Permissions)
    If DU reports errors, restart your Mac while holding down the Command + R keys. From there you should be able to access the built in utilities in OS X Recovery to repair the startup disk.
    Make sure to back up all important files first before using OS X Recovery.
    OS X Recovery does require a broadband high speed internet connection.

  • I wanted to install windows for Mac and I had vista so I put I the disk and installed it then it  loses my  computer wen I turned it on it went straight to windows and it asked me to install it and put in the windows box code I found out I didn't have Ma.

    I wanted to install windows for Mac and I had vista so I put I the disk and installed  followed the steps it then it  closed my  computer wen I turned it on it went straight to windows and it asked me to install it and put in the windows box code I found out I didn't have it so I wanted to go back to Mac I shut it off and it just goes back to windows and asks me to put the box code how do I get rid of it and go back to Mac because no buttons work at the start and i can't take out the disk !! Help

    The two other posts are correct... so I'll just clarify.  What's happening right now is your system is trying to boot into Windows in order to finish the installation.  What you want to do is make it boot into OS X.  As mende1 indicated, with your system off, hold down the Option key and continue to hold it while you turn the system on.  You will eventually be presented with an option to select which partition you would like to boot from.  Choose OS X.  After you get into OS X, again, as mende1 indicated, change the Startup Disk to OS X.  What this will do is cause your system to automatically boot into OS X when you restart it instead of you having to use the Option key when booting each time.
    Relaunching BootCamp Assistant will allow you to remove your Windows installation and partition.

    You will have to reinstall OS X. In the future ignore such things. Don't click on any links or dial any phone numbers. They are all phishing scams.
