Brush icon not displaying correctly

Hi folks,
I just installed CS4 on a lovely new Dell notebook with WUXGA display (1920x1200) and am having a problem that I have never seen before. When the brush tip is small (up to 35 px at 100%) I see the entire circle defining it, but as I move into larger and larger tip sizes the circle starts to disappear from the bottom right, becoming just a smaller and smaller circular fragment until it disappears entirely at around 300 px. If I select the center crosshair, this also disappears around 200px (when only a small circular crescent is left), and then reappears at around 400px (minus any trace of the circle).
It is obviously some sort of display issue: if I change the image size the behavior is the same when the circle is the same size onscreen, so it is the display size and not the absolute pixel size which determines it. This happens whether I choose normal or full-size tip.
Has anyone experienced this? It is not only annoying, it is positively serious, since at certain sizes I cannot even tell where or how large the brush is.
Clear type on or off makes no difference. I have not noticed any odd display behavior with any other program.
Any suggestions most welcome.
Toby

This was a very common fault in the early days of CS4.
You need to update to Version 11.0.1 and get the latest video drivers.
You might have to experiment with OpenGL settings in the preferences too.

Indesign CS3 .indd icons not displaying correctly in Windows 7 64 bit.

GDay InDesign Gurus.
Ive just recently moved over to Windows 7 64 bit and have noticed that my InDesign .indd file icons are being displayed as a blank file type instead of the IND icon type. The .indd files open up correctly in InDesign upon double clicking so the issue is more of a convenience one. I have checked that the file association has been set to InDesign which is all ok as the files open up fine just there is no IND icon displayed in the file; my Photoshop and Illustrator files are all fine and display correctly but it would be nice if I could easily see my .indd files.
Ive searched the web for a solution but have not been able to fine one associated to Windows 7 64 bit.
Any help you guys can provide would be highly appreciated.
Thanks guys.

Website Icons not displaying Correctly on FF8.0

Dear Support,
After upgrading to the latest FF8.0, I noticed that some of the bookmarked websites in my bookmark toolbar don't display their icons correctly.
for e.g.: I have Cisco.com at bookmark toolbar. Instead of displaying Cisco's logo next to the website name, I'm getting an empty dashed square.
Kindly advise
Regards
Michel

The MOST common cause of sites not displaying properly in any browser is the invalid code on the page -

Icons Not displaying correctly in Bridge 6

in bridge 6. Image Icons in layered psd images do not show changes I have made – for example added or deleted layers.
Also some image icon as above shows just the first layer, not added layers. I open the image in cs6 and it is correct. The correct image is saved and working; but the icon does not show the correct image.
Of 30 images I have worked on over the weekend there are only two in the folder that do not show correctly. The files are not bigger/smaller than the correct ones and all of them are psd. Any ideas? Thanks, Bob

in bridge 6. Image Icons in layered psd images do not show changes I have made – for example added or deleted layers.
Assuming with Image icons you mean the thumbnails in the content panel and that you are using Bridge CS 6 (which has Bridge version 5)?
The short route to check is selecting one one the problem thumbnails and with right mouse click from the menu choose 'purge cache for selection'.
If this works then go to the menu tools / cache / purge cache for folder and you should be OK.
If not you have to provide more details about computer specs, OS version and exact Bridge version

FileMaker Pro icons not displaying correctly

After updating to Yosemite, all of my FileMaker Pro document icons are displayed as generic icons (juts the outline of a piece of paper). This occurs both in Finder and on the Dock.
Other document icons seem okay. If I do a Get Info on a document, the icon seems okay in the Get Info window.
Does anyone know how to correct this behavior?
Thanks!

Thanks, coreworksnet.
I was also seeing this problem with FM 13. I was able to get around it, but it was a headache. I had to go into each individual DB file and do a Get Info. That dialog shows the icon for the document (which, strangely enough, showed the correct icon). I then copied the icon over from the FM app (which visually did nothing). But once I closed the Get Info dialog, the icon for the DB file was correct.
Repeat a few dozen times for all of my DB files, and it seems okay now.

Icons not displaying correctly getting text instead.

I have tried all options that I have found on your forum with no luck. I went as far as resting my Firefox to default with no success.
Using MAC 10.8.5
My setting are set up correct - Allow pages to choose their own fonts, instead of my selections above is checked.
I also rest this as well
gfx.downloadable_fonts.enabled
So far no luck I am still getting text instead of the icons.

Can you attach a screenshot?

Permissions are not displaying correctly on Yosemite server

My file and folder permissions are not displaying correctly on my Yosemite server when viewed from a Yosemite client.
I have set these permissions from the server app on the server and have added local network groups for the appropriate folders on the share. When checked from the server's finder, everything looks correct. The server is setup for both AFP and SMB on file sharing. I have also tried setting permissions from the server's finder and seemed to make no difference.
When logged into from local or VPN Yosemite clients using AFP, the permissions do not show anything but postgres user and everyone group. Even though they should have network groups such as skoogfinancial, skoogmarketing, etc.
The server does seem to enforce the permissions correctly though a user cannot get into folders he does not have permissions for.
Therefore, it seems the server is enforcing correctly, but a user may not understand what is going on as the permissions list doesn't list anything meaningful.

Please read this whole message before doing anything.
This procedure is a diagnostic test. It’s unlikely to solve your problem. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
The purpose of this exercise is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party system modifications that load automatically at startup or login. Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards. Boot in safe mode* and log in to the account with the problem. The instructions provided by Apple are as follows:
Be sure your Mac is shut down.
Press the power button.
Immediately after you hear the startup tone, hold the Shift key. The Shift key should be held as soon as possible after the startup tone, but not before the tone.
Release the Shift key when you see the gray Apple icon and the progress indicator (looks like a spinning gear).
*Note: If FileVault is enabled under OS X 10.7 or later, or if a firmware password is set, you can’t boot in safe mode.
Safe mode is much slower to boot and run than normal, and some things won’t work at all, including wireless networking on certain Macs.
The login screen appears even if you usually log in automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin.
Test while in safe mode. Same problem(s)?
After testing, reboot as usual (i.e., not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of the test.

PDF's in Mail and Preview not displaying correctly

Ever since upgrading to Yosemite PDF's are not displaying correctly. Every time i generate a PDF of a sales quote it seems to lose a lot of information.
But the strange thing is.....
Preview and Mail both show PDF with missing text.
When I open using "Quick Look Attachment" within Mail or Adobe Acrobat it looks perfect.
When emailed, recipients (mostly Windows users) seem to have no problem opening it and seeing all text.
So far seen that issue is only in Preview and Mail
Only has happened since upgrading to Yosemite
PDF is created using web based ZOHO CRM to build quotes.
See image below to see the difference in what Mail and Preview sees compared with how other apps open the same PDF.
NOTE: sensitive info has been purposely blurred on image.

Do a backup, using either Time Machine or a cloning program, to ensure files/data can be recovered. Two backups are better than one.
Try setting up another admin user account to see if the same problem continues. If Back-to-My Mac is selected in System Preferences, the Guest account will not work. The intent is to see if it is specific to one account or a system wide problem. This account can be deleted later.
Isolating an issue by using another user account
Try booting into the Safe Mode using your normal account. Disconnect all peripherals except those needed for the test. Shut down the computer and then power it back up after waiting 10 seconds. Immediately after hearing the startup chime, hold down the shift key and continue to hold it until the gray Apple icon and a progress bar appear and again when you log in. The boot up is significantly slower than normal. This will reset some caches, forces a directory check, and disables all startup and login items, among other things. When you reboot normally, the initial reboot may be slower than normal. If the system operates normally, there may be 3rd party applications which are causing a problem. Try deleting/disabling the third party applications after a restart by using the application un-installer. For each disable/delete, you will need to restart if you don’t do them all at once.

Mc-icons not sized correctly in Internet Explorer

The file icons used by Sun One Web Server 6.1 (/mc-icons) to indicate file types do not display correctly when a directory does not have an index or default file, and the web server automatically creates an index that includes these icons and shows the directory contents. The icons representing the files appear correctly sized in Netscape Navigator 4.7 browser, but appear to shrink beyond visible resolution in Internet Explorere 6.0 browser. Fancy indexing (common) is being used. Platform is Windows 2000 Server, also running SSL3 and ColdFusion 7.0. How can we get the icons to display at a visible size in Internet Explorer? The result appears to the user as if the icon graphics are missing, but they are indeed called correctly by the page and the path to them is set correctly. I have verified that the graphics are OK on the server and are sized correctly when viewed in an image editor.

Are you sure the problem is the size of the icons? Beginning with version 6.0.2900.2190, Microsoft Internet Explorer stopped displaying the Web Server /mc-icons GIFs. This regression was apparently a side effect of Microsoft's attempts to fix IE's handling of malicious image files.
Apart from not using the buggy versions of IE, I'm not aware of a simple fix. I suspect a future Web Server 6.1 service pack will include a work around for the IE bug, but probably not until 6.1SP7.
I've added tweaked icons to my blog at http://blogs.sun.com/elving?entry=directory_listing_icons_and_ie that IE will display properly. You may wish to copy these into your ns-icons directory.

Google fonts not displaying correctly since updating to Firefox 31.0

Since updating to Firefox 31.0, the vast majority of Google / web fonts are not displaying correctly, including icons that are being replaced with random characters. When I view the Google web fonts page, only a few display correctly, the rest just default to a sans-serif font.
- I've tried running in safe mode with no add-ons enabled.
- I've tried disabling all add-ons then re-enabling one by one.
- I've checked the tickbox in the font settings for 'Allow pages to use their own fonts' is ticked
Any help appreciated, it's got quite frustrating now.
Thanks, Greg

You can do a font test to see if you can identify corrupted font(s).
*http://browserspy.dk/fonts-flash.php?detail=1
You can try different default fonts and temporarily disable website fonts to test the selected default font.
*Tools > Options > Content : Fonts & Colors > Advanced
*[ ] "Allow pages to choose their own fonts, instead of my selections above"
You can check for problems with preferences.
You can check the <b>gfx.downloadable_fonts.enabled</b> pref on the <b>about:config</b> page and make sure that it is set to true (if necessary double-click the line to toggle its value).
Delete a possible user.js file and numbered prefs-##.js files and rename (or delete) the prefs.js file to reset all prefs to the default value including prefs set via user.js and prefs that are no longer supported in the current Firefox release.
*http://kb.mozillazine.org/Preferences_not_saved
*http://kb.mozillazine.org/Resetting_preferences
Create a new profile as a test to check if your current profile is causing the problem.
See "Creating a profile":
*https://support.mozilla.org/kb/profile-manager-create-and-remove-firefox-profiles
*http://kb.mozillazine.org/Standard_diagnostic_-_Firefox#Profile_issues
If the new profile works then you can transfer files from a previously used profile to the new profile, but be cautious not to copy corrupted files to avoid carrying over problems.
*http://kb.mozillazine.org/Transferring_data_to_a_new_profile_-_Firefox
Boot the computer in Windows Safe mode with network support (press F8 on the boot screen) as a test to see if that helps.

I have created a powerpoint web app in sharepoint 2013 ,i used a ppt in this web app.My ppt image is not displaying correctly in MAC mozilla firefox

I am facing this problem in MAC OS Mozilla Firefox.It is displaying correctly in other browsers like google chrome and internet explorer in MAC OS,but it is not displaying correctly in Mozilla firefox.
I already checked the possible reasons like:
1. Restarted my computer
2. Clear cookies and cache
3. Restarted Firefox in Safe Mode
4. Troubleshoot all plugins
5. Reinstalled Firefox
6. Reset Firefox.
anyone know how to fix this issue.I am waiting for your valuable answers.

Looking at [http://sharepoint.stackexchange.com/questions/82591/in-powerpoint-web-app-2013-ppt-is-not-displayed-correctly-in-mac-os-mozilla-fire your screen shot] it reminds me of a problem with Flash on the Retina display not using the full area if hardware acceleration of graphics is disabled. See [https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/968863 I'm only getting one quarter of a screen on Flash Player on Firefox] (unsolved).
Not sure if that's relevant but does the display of the slide change if you make sure that hardware acceleration is enabled? The checkbox is here:
Firefox menu > Prefences > Advanced
On the "General" mini-tab, uncheck the box for "Use hardware acceleration when available"
Note that any changes take effect after you exit and restart Firefox.
To see whether Firefox actually is using hardware acceleration, you can check the troubleshooting information. Either:
* Help > Troubleshooting Information
* type or paste about:support in the address bar and press Enter
Toward the end, in the Graphics section, look for this row:
GPU Accelerated Windows
The number will show a ratio of accelerated to non-accelerated window. If hardware acceleration is disabled, the first number will always be zero.
By the way, is the SharePoint PPT viewer using Flash, or Silverlight, or another plugin? Typically Firefox will display an icon that looks a bit like a "Lego" block in the address bar showing what plugins are in use in the page.

Websites not displayed correctly

Hi,
since i updated to Safari 6.0.2, many websites are not displayed correctly anymore. instead of pictures i see a blue question mark, sometimes the whoe layout is a mess. this concerns multiple websites, alse like facebook or youtube. when i refresh, it mostly orks, so i think it´s not a plugin-issue
Curiously, also in Mail, some Emails are not displayed correctly.
Thank´s for any suggestions or ideas how to solve that.
Christoph

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.
☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Terminal in the icon grid.
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” 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, $7}'
Post the lines of output (if any) that appear below what you just entered (the text, please, not a screenshot.) You can omit the final line ending in “$”.
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 formerly synchronized 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.

ICal not displayed correctly.

I have a few odd problems with my iCal. This seemed to happen when I upgraded to Leopard and I can't fix it. First the icon does not display correctly in the dock. The month and day is there but the calendar part of the icon is transparent, however, when I click to open the program it shows up while the program is running. The second and more serious issue is that when i add an event the event box is solid black so I can read any of the fields to add anything. THe only way I know what is going on is that I can highlight everything so I know where the different fields are located and what is written in them. Has anyone seen this before?

This is a problem for me as well. My grandmother's birthday (year 1921) and my mother's (1951) are no longer in my iPhone's calendar. I turned off the Birthdays feature in iCal, and what birthdays did exist on my iPhone were removed. I then reactivated, and still my grandmother's and mother's entries are not present, though other younger entries are back.

Finder icons not displaying or not displaying properly

I'm having a problem where icons in finder such as word documents pdfs and the main volume of my hard drive are not displaying at all or are not displaying correctly. One .rtf file I saved on my desktop had the same icon as a jpeg I had saved on the desktop too.
Anybody have any idea of what I can do about this?

Create a new admin user account, log into it, and see if the behavior persists. If so, it's system-wide and reinstalling the COMBO updater is advisable. You might consider going to 10.4.10, but with the usual caveat of backing up your current boot volume to a bootable backup/clone.
If not, then you've corruption/conflicts within the original user folder, usually preference files. Get Preferential Treatment and verify/repair them. Determining the conflict is a hit and miss proposition and time consuming. See my posts at http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=4703015 for the steps.

Umlauts are not displayed correctly in different programs

Hello!
I live in germany, but my locale is set to "en_US.UTF8" because I like to have everything in english.
I do not have any problems with umlauts on the machine, but when I connect with sFTP oder Samba to it, the umlauts in files are not displayed correctly.
Look at this example
The upper word is how it looks in "ssh putty" (=locally on the machine), the bottom one is from "filezilla" (from my windows host)
This is my locale
locale
LANG=en_US.UTF-8
LC_CTYPE="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_NUMERIC="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_TIME="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_COLLATE="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_MONETARY="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_MESSAGES="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_PAPER="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_NAME="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_ADDRESS="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_TELEPHONE="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_MEASUREMENT="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_IDENTIFICATION="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_ALL=
When I create a file "asd_aöü" locally on the machine (with the help of ssh - putty), it looks fine, but when I connect by samba or filezilla again the umlauts are not displayed correctly.
Do you understand my problem? What can I do?
Thanks!
