Photoshop CC font preview had to be set to none after OSX 10.8.3 update.

Hi,
I own a Macbook Pro with retina display. When I last updated it I experienced problems in Photoshop CC with the color wheel spinning often for no apparent reason. I had never had this happen so I saw in the troubleshoot Photoshop article in Adobe help to set the preview size to none. Why do I have to suddenly disable parts of Photoshop on such a capable machine as this? I am glad the color wheel stopped spinning but I'm not glad that I have to find a way around having no font previews in Photoshop CC.
This is something I think should be fixed.
Sincerely,
Harold Williams

@Noel
I did those steps and step 4 and 5. They tested good. I think step 6 did the trick but not immediately. I could not do step 7 for some reason. I did not stop to figure it all out. I just kept going to step 8. This is where I began to see Photoshop become much more responsive. I moved all fonts that start with the letter A from ~/Library/Fonts to my Desktop and now Photoshop is faster than I've seen in a while. No spinning color wheel, yet. Now I have to find out which ones of those A fonts are bad by replacing them one at a time.
Thanks for pointing me back to that article. I guess I just got upset.
Sincerly,
Harold Williams

Datasource set to NONE after classic to EPMA conversion

Hello everyone.
We recently transformed a classic Hyperion application to EPMA.
Everything seems to be alright and the application is working fine after conversion.
However, when performing application deploys, we've noticed that the datasource appears to be set to NONE, as seen in the following image:
https://c69ee7db-a-62cb3a1a-s-sites.googlegroups.com/site/ktratsites/Home/deploy_none.png
The system seems to be respecting the actual datasource that we set up for this application (name it APPDSCR), but the "Deploy" dialog window shows this NONE.
Should we be worried about this?
Is this a known issue of transformed applications?
Is there a way so the actual datasource is shown again instead of NONE?
Thank you.
Best regards,
G.S.Feliu

Hi again.
I'm finding a new issue related to this topic.
The application we transformed from Classic to EPMA exists in two environments: DEV and PRO.
It happened the PRO application was updated with new dimension members, hence the DEV application should be updated, too, so we decided to perform a migration from APPNAME PRO to APPNAME DEV. Everything seems ok as of this point.
I exported the EPMA local dimensions (all dimensions are local in these applications) from APPNAME PRO, then proceeded to import them in APPNAME DEV.
When I tried to redeploy APPNAME DEV, I got an error message. The log reads:
[21-mar-2013 12:20:00]: An Exception occurred during Application deployment.: You cannot change the Default Currency after deploying. You must select USD as the Default Currency before redeploying the application.
This makes no sense at all. The default currency for both applications has allways been ARS. However, the system shows the deployed application's default currency is USD. I'm working this via SR with Oracle.
I run a diagnostics test on both applications, and both failed the "Deployed status but not in product" test, as seen here:
https://sites.google.com/site/ktratsites/Home/diagnostics.png?attredirects=0
I made a dummy move and chose "Retrieve potential deployed locations". This allowed the correct datasource to be shown in the "deploy application" dialog box instead of NONE, but didn't resolve the problem.
BTW, FinFu, the applications do not exists anymore in Classic Planning Administration.
All in all, I don't know whether all this verbose clarifies something to you or not.
Regards,

How to refresh an iterator with PPR set to none after task flow operation?

Using JDev 11.1.2.1.0.
Doing the sample here: http://www.gebs.ro/blog/oracle/oracle-adf-creating-an-addedit-bounded-task-flow-using-a-new-transaction/
For this to work, you've got to set your page iterator/executable's ChangeEventPolicy to "none". Otherwise, you can't set the selected row correctly due to the iterator refreshing on commit.
I'm trying to extend this example to include a Delete operation setup in the task flow. However, I can't figure out how to refresh the page's iterator to display the updated results. The Delete doesn't run in a dialog so it doesn't invoke the calling button's returnListener.
Any ideas?
Thanks,
Will

Thank you for your response.
I'm trying to call the delete operation from a task flow. Once the delete occurs, the page should somehow call a refresh on the iterator displayed. However, since the iterator can not have PPR set, the refresh doesn't happen automatically. Additionally, since the delete doesn't happen as part of a dialog window, the returnListener for the calling button does not fire.

Setting Passcode - Freezing after update

Has anyone had any issues setting their passcode after update? Mine lets me put it in, but on the last digit it freezes and then after a minute, returns to the homescreen as if nothing happened?????? Help???? Not had any other issues other than settings not really wanting to come up and being a bit slow.

Yes, mine did exactly the same thing. iPhone 3GS 32GB updated to 4.0. Sometimes it freezes as soon as I enter the passcode setting screen, usually it lets me get through both screens before freezing on the last digit. Setting the autolock delay sometimes freezes on me, too. I have done a Restore to Factory Settings, and then reloaded my media. The only change that made was that I was a couple of hours older; the problem remained. I have reset the iPhone, and forced a shutdown and reboot. No difference at all. Very unhappy right now.

Font preview -- Photoshop CC -- Windows 7

EDIT: I did select "Large" from the TYPE menu (thought it was in Preferences), but this or "None" or the options did not change things.
Windows 7
On my Laptop, I can scroll through my font menu and see the text change.
Not so on my Desktop. There, I can click in the font name box and use the up and down arrows to do this.
Trying to find why the difference, I found this online:
FROM: https://helpx.adobe.com/photoshop/using/fonts.html#previewing_fonts
Photoshop Help / Fonts
Updated for Photoshop CC Version 2014
Previewing fonts
You can view samples of a font in the font family and font style menus in the Character panel and other areas in the application from where you can choose fonts.
To turn off the preview feature or change the point size of font names, do one of the following:
(CC, CS6) Choose Type > Font Preview Size, and choose an option.
The problem: on my Desktop version of Photoshop CC, there is no Preference option as stated above.
I prefer seeing the menu scroll and to point and click, rather than having to use the up and down arrows to move through the font list sequentially.
How can I fix this?
Thank you.

Ah! Good question.
I had assumed I had the same version on each computer because I always keep both up-to-date.
Also, with the new CC, I no longer knew where to find the version number. Now I know :-)
Here's what I have:
DESKTOP:
Adobe Photoshop Version: 14.2.1 (14.2.1 20140207.r.570 2014/02/07:23:00:00) x64
Operating System: Windows 7 64-bit
LAPTOP:
Adobe Photoshop Version: 2014.1.0 20140730.r.148 2014/07/30:23:59:59 x64
Operating System: Windows 7 64-bit
I am going to guess that is what makes the difference.
Even if so, I prefer being able to see the font menu list, rather than using the up/down arrows.
Looking forward to your feedback/response.
Thanks!
Bob

Photoshop CS5 crashes when font preview on

If this isn't the right forum please let me know.
I have had this issue ever since I purchased photoshop over a year ago and never have found a solution. I have followed the suggestions that I have found given to others but nothing helps. Once I have turned on font preview the only way I can get Photoshop to open and stay open is to manually delete the preferences. The font test script claims that I have no defective fonts. I have twon computers bothe running 64bit windows 7 pro. one with 12G memory 2TB disk space, quad core 2.5gHz processor with only 350G occupying the HD, and I have a laptop with only 4G memory, 222Gb HD (half full), and a 2gHz single core processor. Photoshop only has issues with font preview on the more powerful machine.
Now when I run the font test script it says I have 1600 fonts on my system, but I only show about half that in my font folder. Is photoshop reading fonts from elsewhere than c:\windows\fonts

Photoshop will only see fonts that are installed in your system.
Fonts do not have to be corrupt to cause errors and problems. Some are just poorly written, and Photoshp cannot deal with them. Some are generally OK, but due to their writing, Photosho cannot display them. Photoshop is very sensitive to fonts, unlike many programs, such as a wordprocessor. This article, while written for Titler in Premiere Pro/Premiere Elements, has some tips that apply to PS, as well: http://forums.adobe.com/thread/479026?tstart=0

How do I turn off font preview in Photoshop CC2014

Though I can see that the font preview on the fonts selector could be useful, I dislike that is has been forced upon us. It slows things down, and I don't need to preview the fonts.
Is there any way to turn this off please?

Hi Andrew,
A lot of users requested for this feature, that is why it was implemented in CC2014 version.
You can revert to Photoshop CC version as there is no way right now to turn of the font preview.
Thank you for posting on Adobe Forums.

Where do I find the "Maestro" font in Photoshop? It used to be included with all the other fonts. It is a set of musical symbols. Thanks.

The only way I know to achieve this would be to create three separate bookmarks on the Bookmarks toolbar and click on a one that you want to load in the current tab. You can also try to right-click the Back arrow and click the entry at the bottom of the list to return to the first page.

Photoshop CS6 Font problems

I am experiencing an intermittent problem in Photoshop CS6. I have over 500 fonts loaded on my IMac. I'll be working on a project file and when I go to add text, the drop down menu will only show about a third of my fonts instead of showing the complete list. The only way to correct this problem is to shut down Photoshop and reboot my computer. Most of the time this will give me a menu showing all of the fonts. I have had this Mac for over two yeas and have not had such a problem while using CS5. Is this a bug in Photoshop or do I have other issues ? I have downloaded the latest Photoshop updates.
Equipment: IMac 27 with 3.06 dual core processor and 12 gig of ram. I am running Os 10.6.8.
As this is happening more frequently and has become very frustrating, any help would be appreciated.

Since you already said that you have downloaded the latest Photoshop upgrades (http://www.adobe.com/downloads/updates ), Then I will forward you to the next possible solution.
This would be to turn font preview off in Photoshop's preferences:
In Photoshop CS6:
Choose Type > Font Preview Size.
Select None.
Another solution is to turn off the following fonts:
The following fonts are known to cause problems when used in Photoshop:
Bustle (Mac OS only)
21kannmbn_ttf
GURAKH_S.TTF
JH_TITLES.TTF
SCREEN__.TTF
SEVESBRG.TTF
SF Tattle Tales Condensed.ttF
ZEROGEBI.TTF
Zippy.ttf
Haettenschweiler (Photoshop CS4 when run as a 64-bit application on Windows only)
Finally, another option is to Validate all the fonts through the Font Book Mac Os Application:
If you have a third-party font management program, such as Suitcase Fusion 2, there is sometimes a tool in your application that validates fonts. (For example, Font Doctor ships as a part of Suitcase Fusion 2.) Use this type of application as your first choice.
If you use a tool to validate your fonts, but the problem recurs, it's possible that the tool did not successfully validate your fonts. In this case, follow the steps in Solution 4 below to check for damaged fonts and to reset your font caches.
To validate your fonts through Font Book:
Choose Applications > Font Book.
Choose All Fonts in the Collection column.
Select the top most font in the Font column.
Use the Down Arrow on the keyboard to select the first font, then hold the key down to scroll through all your fonts.
If Font Book crashes, restart Font Book, and scroll through the fonts one by one to determine which font caused the crash.
If you are using Mac OS X (10.5.x), Ctrl-click on any fonts that are problematic, and choose to Disable that font family.
If you are using Mac OS X (10.6.x), Ctrl-click on any fonts that are problematic, and choose to Remove that font family.
I grabbed all these from Adobe Help, which offer a few other options you might want to explore if these don't help you.

Text / Font Preview

This may have been mentioned before, but I wanted to get it out of my head before I forgot it.
Dream: A font preview system within illustrator.
1. Type in your sample text within a dialog and preview typed characters on all the fonts of your system.
2. The ability to save your fonts within illustrator in sets
These two features would save so much time scrolling thru font selections.
Robert Good.

I don't recall a setting that would cause that behavior, but does anyone really know all the many, many settings?
What operating system are you running?
What has changed on your computer since it last worked?
Does the text have any layer style effects?
This could be a situation where Photoshop CS3 is falling out of date with functionality of modern video drivers, though more often it is something that's been installed or configured.
Some things to try:
Try resetting the Character tool by making the Character panel visible then using the menu at the upper-right:
Try resetting your Photoshop overall preferences to defaults (Ctrl - Shift - Alt immediately after starting Photoshop from its icon or menu item) just to be sure it's not a heretofore undiscovered setting or an invalid combination of settings.
Make sure you have the latest video drivers, or in some case a driver that's been rolled back to an older version (might be more applicable in this situation). Experimentation may be in order.

Illustrator CS2 Font preview in Windows

Hi, i noticed that there is a preferences setting that says it enables font preview. However, what i am looking to do is view the font in the toolbar where the font selection is like in Photoshop. I have seen it function on Macs I believe, but I don't know how to make it work in Illustrator CS2 in windows. The font preview does not seem to turn that on. Can anybody help me with this? it makes it a lot easier to be able to view the font preview before choosing the fonts so i don't have to choose every font in order to see what it is.

Will,
Have you tried placing in new documents, and have you tried deleting the preferences, or
Moving the folder?

Illustrator CS4 and my drop down menu displaying different typefaces is no longer displaying font preview.

I am using Illustrator CS4 and my drop down menu displaying different typefaces is no longer showing all of them, just blank spaces where they would be...that is unless I put my cursor over it and I can then see the typeface. This is more of a nuisance than anything and didn't happen until I updates OS X to Yosemite. I currently am operating OS X Yosemetie 10.10.2
I have attached a screen shot. You can see that the font highlighted as the cursor is over it I can see the preview...but one I move the cursor it appears like all the others in the list and is blank.
HELP!

Solved using this previous users had the same issue; Font previews not appearing correctly in the character window after upgrading to Yosemite

Why doesn't the PS CC font preview show font families any more? Now i have to scroll through 4,400 fonts every time!

You mean font previews themselves in the list? You can set the size and disable via Type > Font Preview Size.

Photoshop CC font preview had to be set to none after OSX 10.8.3 update.
