Safari 4.0.3 not displaying text correctly

Hi all, I recently upgraded to Snow Leopard (along with everyone else) and ever since certain code will NOT display correctly.
This is what is displayed by safari when viewing text from a "code" tag.

This is what is supposed to be displayed: (as viewed on firefox)

I have tried troubleshooting and fixing this problem by reinstalling both Safari 4, and Snow leopard to no avail, I have also verified and repaired permissions.
Note that not ALL text is displayed incorrectly, this is the rest of the page as displayed by Safari:

Please help

SOLUTION FOUND!
I searched the forums and found our solution here:

Basically, go to your Applications and open Font Book. If this is the case, you have two sets of Courier running. Scroll down to where Courier is and click the drop down triangle to see it's different styles. I then sort of just guessed and checked this next move but it did the trick. Find the Courier Regular that does NOT give a sample display of our beloved ABCs. Right click that "bad" version of Courier Regular and choose the Remove or Delete Option and verify with an OK. It should get rid of all the bad versions and the warning triangles. Try out a page in Safari and it should look as good as any other browser now.

Safari 7.1 does not display fonts correctly in youtube

Since I upgraded to Safari 7.1 any YouTube videos do not display text or the time correctly. All of it looks like small boxes with a capital A in them. I found something on the forums the other day and I upgraded my Flash and I used Fusion Suitecase to clear font caches. That works for one session in Safari and I thought I had it fixed. The next session the same thing happened, so I cleared my font cache again, but it did not work. What am I to do. This is dumb! You get an upgrade and you have to run around trying to fix what it messed up. Never had this problem. BTW, Firefox displays everything correctly, but I don't like Firefox. Any help is appreciated.

Hi ..
Might be a third party font manager > Re: All I see is the letter "a"
If that's not the issue, check for duplicate fonts...
Open Font Book located in your Applications folder.
From the Font Book menu bar click Edit > Look for Enabled Duplicates
If that doesn't help, it might be a third party font causing the capital A issue.
From the Font Book menu bar click File > Restore Standard Fonts

File tabs in DW CS6 do not display text correctly

I recently purchased DW CS6, not the cloud version. When I open the program I cannot read the text on the file tabs in the program The text is distorted and barely legible. I run windows XP professional with SP3. Any ideas?

Hi there
Are you sure you are using CHM? From what you have described, I might expect something browser based. (WebHelp, FlashHelp, Browser Based AIR Help).

Safari does not display text on some sites.

I am running OSX 10.10.2 and Safari 8.03
Some sites I visit do not display text at all.
For example: This site (http://neflin.org/) looks fine in Chrome, Firefox, whatever. But in Safari, it has no text at all. See below.
Mail is having difficult with some text in html email too.
I have rebooted, reset the PRAM, deleted preferences and turned off extensions. I checked the Guest account and created a new account and in all cases the problem persists.
I have validated fonts in Font Book, restored standard fonts and looked for duplicates. Nothing.
Flash and Java are up to date.
Any thoughts?

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.
The purpose of this test is to determine whether the problem is localized to your user account. Enable guest logins* and log in as Guest. Don't use the Safari-only “Guest User” login created by “Find My Mac.”
While logged in as Guest, you won’t have access to any of your documents or settings. Applications will behave as if you were running them for the first time. Don’t be alarmed by this behavior; it’s normal. If you need any passwords or other personal data in order to complete the test, memorize, print, or write them down before you begin.
Test while logged in as Guest. Same problem?
After testing, log out of the guest account and, in your own account, disable it if you wish. Any files you created in the guest account will be deleted automatically when you log out of it.
*Note: If you’ve activated “Find My Mac” or FileVault in OS X 10.7 or later, then you can’t enable the Guest account. The "Guest User" login created by "Find My Mac" is not the same. Create a new account in which to test, and delete it, including its home folder, after testing.

Safari 6.0 will not display pdf's

When I upgraded to OS X mountain lion and did all of the updates that were required, I found that the new version of safari (6.0) would not display pdf documents in the browser..... here's how i resolved it.
Completely quit safari
Back up data
In Finder select GO > Go to Folder. or use key combo Shift-Command-G and enter the following: /Library/Internet Plug-ins then press return
(it's easier to view in list mode)
Delete the file called " AdobePDFViewerNPAPI.plugin "
Restart Safari and delete the cache and try to view an online pdf.
I found it prudent to have the latest version of flash installed

Back up all data.
If Adobe Reader or Acrobat is installed, there should be a setting in its preferences such as Display PDF in Browser. I don't use those applications myself, so I can't be more precise. Deselect that setting, if it's selected. Otherwise do as follows.
Triple-click anywhere in the line of text below on this page to select it, the copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C:
/Library/Internet Plug-ins
In the Finder, select
Go ▹ Go to Folder
from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-G. Paste into the text box that opens (command-V), then press return.
From the folder that opens, move to the Trash any items that have "Adobe" or “PDF” in the name. You may be prompted for your login password. Then quit and relaunch Safari, and test.
The "Silverlight" web plugin distributed by Microsoft can also interfere with PDF display in Safari, so you may need to remove it as well, if it's present. The same goes for a plugin called "iGetter," and perhaps others — I don't have a complete list.
If you still have the issue, repeat with this line:
~/Library/Internet Plug-ins
If you don’t like the results of this procedure, restore the items from the backup you made before you started. Relaunch Safari again.

Firefox is not displaying the correct font color on my blog, but other browsers are.

I have a web designer issue. Firefox is not displaying the correct font color on the header in my blog. Explorer, Chrome, and Safari have no problems. The page is in css but this particular section has html code o designate color. The code is as follows:
<font face="helvetica" color="FF9966" size="1">blog</font>
Though all other browsers display the light orange color designated, Firefox displays white. Strangely, if if retype the code by spelling out a color, Firefox displays it correctly. i.e.
<font face="helvetica" color="black" size="1">blog</font>
... will give me black. You can see the effect by viewing the link below and looking at the word "blog" in the header, which should be light orange but is not in Firefox.

Actually it also seems to work in the current Firefox 4 beta as it is.
The code is not right though - the correct syntax for the color attribute with hex values is with a # at the start, so:
color="#FF9966"
It might work in Firefox 3.x if you change that.

I have just updated to ISO 8 and my app icons are not displaying the correct icon but just a generic icon. Anyone had a similar problem?

I have just updated to ISO 8 and my app icons are not displaying the correct icon but just a generic icon. Anyone had a similar problem?

That happened to me for a short period of time after I updated. It didn't do it with all apps, but it did it with a few here and there. Try a few basic standard troubleshooting steps. Close all apps and reset the iPad.
In order to close apps, you have to drag the app up from the multitasking display. Double tap the home button and you will see apps lined up going left to right across the screen. Swipe to get to the app that you want to close and then swipe "up" on the app preview thumbnail to close it.
Reset the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider if it appears on the screen - let go of the buttons. Let the iPad start up.
You can also try resetting all settings. You will not lose any data, but most of the device settings will have to be entered in the settings app again. Settings>General>Reset>Reset all Settings.
Hopefully it will be something simple, but don't rule out restoring the iOS software, if nothing else works, but start with this easy stuff first.

Why is Mavericks Calendar not displaying numbers correctly?

My Calendar application is not displaying numbers correctly, I have tried validating my fonts and found nothing there, so not sure what the problem is...

Have yopu gone to Font Book
Font Book is located in the Applications folder (in the Finder, choose Go > Applications). To manage or view fonts, open Font Book, or double-click a font file.
High Light all the fonts ( Shift and click 1st one Shift and click last one) and
then select File/Falidate Fonts
Then making sure all the fonts get a green tick box.

Why is Preview not displaying fonts correctly?

Since the last Snow Leopard upgrade, Preview is not displaying some fonts correctly. I checked to see if the fonts were embedded in the PDF (by resorting to Adobe Acrobat 5... which is not displaying them correctly either) and they are True Type with Windows encoding which as far as I know Preview OS X should be able to handle.
I tried deleting the Preview preferences in User/Library/Prefeerences and restarting but this made no difference. The same PDF works perfectly though on an old iMac that is running OS X Tiger!!!

Well I found a few minor font problems which seem to have cropped up since the last system upgrade, but none of those were the font in question. Also, as I understand it, the whole point of PDF documents is that the fonts are embedded in the document so you do not have to have the fonts installed on your computer to view the PDF properly. I use a lot of special fonts and when I save documents as a PDF I can send them to anyone on the internet and they can usually see everything as it is meant to be.

BPS Variable-Cost Element is not displaying Text

Dear Team,
We have a peculiar issue one of the BPS Variable defined for Cost Element is not displaying text in one of the Planning Layouts.
Another variable is displaying text in another layout.
Surprisingly...when I reused the old variable in the new layout it is also not displaying the text.
Am I missing something....appreciated your quick support.
Thanks & Best Regards
Srinivas

Have you check the layout Lead-Column setting? Is it set to 'Key/Description'?

Lightroom 4.1 can not show text correctly

lightroom 4.1 can not show text correctly when publish in PDF and blurb format
the text can be show correctly in JPEG format
but lightroom 4.0 can show correctly with the same book.
i cant publish my book on blurb now

I don't think LR4 adjustments can be directly sent to CS4, because CS4 cannot interpret LR4's new processing engine.
I think you have to use Edit In... and create a TIF or PSD and send those to CS4

Server Admin not displaying groups correctly

Server 10.5.8, Mac Pro 4 core 2.66, 56 GB RAM.
Had a crash yesterday, all back to normal now except:
Server Admin's "show users and groups" is not displaying groups correctly" "users" is missng, and any new groups I created in WM are missing. Even if I sort by GID, they don't show up. And yet, if I type "staff" in the search bar, it shows up with GID 20. Also shared folders are showing up as groups

Surely someone can at least point me in the right direction? I tried rebuilding the LDAP database, but that didn't fix it.

Safari is not displaying webpages correctly

HELP! Safari does not display certain webpages correctly. I also have this problem with internet explorer. For instance, in Yahoo I expect to see certain icons with the ability to change color and text, but none of the boxes are displayed as they should be when using a PC. Most recently, I have a problem with a blog webpage that does not display all of the text editing functions. Instead I get all of the html script or java script text (not sure which one). It is really frustrating.
Please help!

Some common sites have text editing functions that can only be used from a Windows system. Most likely all you can do is complain to them about it. As for the blog, no one can possibly help you without a url, so they can see what the problem might be.
