Why don't my fonts work?

I've got zillions of fonts that work in InDesign and Illustrator but lots of them don't work in Photoshop. Why not? Using Font Agent Pro and CS4

I'm an idiot. I forgot to activate the fonts in FontAgent Pro before trying to use them in Photoshop. Thanks anyhow.

Why don't embedded fonts work inside ItemRenderers?

I'm trying to use an embedded font on a spark label inside an item renderer for a list control and it doesn't work. Works fine everywhere else.

So i think i figured out what was going on. Here is my simplified code:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<s:Application xmlns:fx="http://ns.adobe.com/mxml/2009"
               xmlns:s="library://ns.adobe.com/flex/spark"
               xmlns:mx="library://ns.adobe.com/flex/mx" minWidth="955" minHeight="600" xmlns:components="com.rtn.jccFlex.components.*" xmlns:local="*" xmlns:components1="com.ray.components.*">
    <fx:Declarations>
        
    </fx:Declarations>
    <fx:Style>
        @namespace s "library://ns.adobe.com/flex/spark";
        @namespace mx "library://ns.adobe.com/flex/mx";
        @font-face {
            src: url("/assets/Typewriter.ttf");
            fontFamily: Typewriter;
            embedAsCFF: true;
    </fx:Style>
    <mx:VBox width="100%" height="100%">
        <s:Label fontFamily="Typewriter" text="MY FONT WORKS!!" fontSize="14" />
        <s:Panel width="60%" height="100%" fontSize="18" fontWeight="bold">
            <s:Label fontFamily="Typewriter" text="MY FONT DOESNT WORKS!!" fontSize="14" />
        </s:Panel>
    </mx:VBox>
</s:Application>
It was looking for the bold version of the font since it inherited it from the parent panel. But the embed by default embeds the "normal" weight.
In our project someone wrote a common panel component that sets the content of the panel using the "DefaultProperty" and we put our list in there. So you don't really think about the container that the List and ItemRenderer sit inside, and it was very easy to overlook.
This was very painful to figure out.
Thanks for the help guys.

Why don't TypeKit Fonts work with Edge Inspect

I have a Typekit kit setup with localhost added to its allowed domains and all mobile options checked. Running the site locally on http://localhost:4567/ works fine. The fonts load and display correctly.
However, when I connect an iPhone 4, 4s or iPad 2 using Edge Connect, the fonts do not load.
How should I troubleshoot this? I've found technical note suggesting that republishing the kit should solve it, but it does not and it is a new kit anyway.
I have tried adding the specific port to the allowed domains for the kit - /localhost:4567, but this has no effect.

Hi,
Yes. You're in luck. Had a couple of very helpful people from Adobe support look into it and here is their final response in full:
TLDR: It won't work out the box but there are good workarounds.
When you're browsing a local website via the hostname `localhost`, which would not be accessible to any other devices on your network, Edge Inspect automatically gets your machine's local IP address (which is not the same as the external IP as shown on sites like whatismyip.com) and sends that to the mobile apps. For instance, let's say I have a Sinatra application running in Chrome on my Mac as http://localhost:4567. My iPhone wouldn't be able to understand the hostname "localhost", but it can see my Mac using its IP address 10.1.10.1, so Edge Inspect will navigate to http://10.1.10.1:4567.
So, to get fonts working, you could add both `localhost` and `10.1.10.1` to your kit. However, we don't recommend adding local IPs to kits because they tend to change without warning. (In my example above, the next time I turn on my computer its IP could have changed to 10.1.10.2, but all I would know is that fonts had stopped working on my devices again.)
To work around this, we recommend using some form of "dynamic DNS" — basically, a domain name that is automatically updated with your current IP and therefore will always point to your computer.
If you're using a Mac, the simplest thing would be to use your Mac's Bonjour hostname. Bonjour is a technology built into Mac OS X and iOS to help devices find each other automatically over networks.
To find your Bonjour hostname:
1. Open System Preferences on your Mac.
2. Choose the Sharing icon.
3. Your Bonjour hostname will be displayed in the top area, under the "Computer Name" field.
You can add the hostname that appears there to your kit, and use it on any Apple device on your network. For example, my Bonjour name is Davids-rMBP.local, so I can browse to http://Davids-rMBP.local:4567 on any Mac or iOS device and see my Sinatra app.
Unfortunately, this simple solution will only work on Apple devices or Windows PCs with Apple's Bonjour software installed — you can't use this hostname with Android phones or tablets. If you need a hostname that will work on any device, there are a couple of options I'd recommend:
1. A third-party service called Forward offers a way to easily forward ports from your computer to other devices anywhere on the internet. You can learn more about them and sign up for a 30-day trial here: https://forwardhq.com. Forward will give you a permanent domain name for your forwarded app that you can add to your kit, such as `dev-yourcompany.fwd.wf`.
2. 37signals has a free "wildcard DNS" service called xip.io that will automatically forward traffic to a local IP address. You can get your current local IP address by opening System Preferences, then choosing Network. The IP address should be shown in the small text underneath the connection status for whatever connection is active (i.e. has a green dot next to it). Once you have the IP, you can access your computer at [YOUR IP].xip.io. To get fonts working, add *.xip.io to your kit. Remember that your IP may change, so if your site stops being accessible you should check to make sure you have the correct IP address.
I personally use xip.io if I need to test Typekit on multiple devices using Edge Inspect. It's certainly not the easiest option to use, but it works quite well with almost no setup and it's free.

Why don't my fonts work after the last update?

I just updated my laptop & now all my fonts won't work! EVEN if it says it is the font I've selected!
I use Microsoft Word & Excel on my Mac.
Also, the fon't are listed as:
1-True Type
2-Open Type
3-Postscript
Under:
/Library/Fonts/then name of font
/Library/Fonts/Microsoft/then name of font
/System/Library/Fonts/then name of font
/Users/terri/Library/Fonts/then name of font
What the heck is happening? I have NO idea what all the above means.
I just love using FONTS!!!
ANY help/comments/insight you may have would be appreciated!
Thanks!
Terri

I'm having this same problem. These community forums can be a huge waste of time. Seems like the hard questions never even get answered. My iTunes won't play my HD movies that it played before the last iTunes update. Now that I upgraded to Yosemite it's even worse.

Why don't Hold keyframes work on Audio Level?

Hi -
In the past (AE6.5) I recall using Hold frames to keep the Audio Level really low until the exact frame I wanted to bring it up to 0db. Now in CS4 the Hold keyframes don't work that way. I wind up using lots of extra keyframes and sliced up layers. It's pretty messy.
For example I have a narration where I have to replace one word in the center of a sentence.
Is there a setting somewhere or, is there a new way to adjust audio levels quickly besides using key frames that someone could tell me about??
Why don't Hold keyframes work on Audio levels anymore??
Thanks,
JL

"adjusting your Quicktime settings to use less hardware acceleration and a different audio buffer duration"
In AE Preferences I have "Audio Hardware" but no mention of QT. It's currently set on "Built-in Output".
Under "Output" I have an Audio Block Duration set at 01:00.
In QT preferences there is nothing about hardware acceleration or buffer duration.
Are any of these related to what you suggest?

Why don't gif animations work in Mail 3.4?

I posted this earlier today on what I thought was the 10.5 Leopard section and as it turned out, it somehow posted in the Panther OS section. Doh! I'm sorry if you saw the other post and this is the second time you have read this today.
I have read through the Mail discussions since the release of Leopard trying to figure out why gif animations do not work in Leopard Mail but they do work in Tiger Mail. I have read several explanations by several different people giving various reasons why they do not work. I have little faith in the answers I've seen to date as to why they do not work in Leopard Mail, as every now and then I get an email with an embedded gif +that does animate+ in Leopard Mail.
If I download from Leopard Mail an animated gif file to my desktop that does not animate in Mail and then open that gif in TextEdit, it animates just fine.
If I take some of the gif files that do not animate in Leopard Mail and publish to an iWeb page, they animate just fine when I visit the published page.
If I open the same email that will not animate in Mail 3.4 in my .mac/.me account using Safari, the animations animate fine in the webmail.
This one really gets me. If I forward an email that contains embedded gif files that are known to animate and that do not animate in Leopard Mail to my iPhone, +they animate just fine in iPhone Mail+. *Go figure!* Why should/would they animate in my little old iPhone 3G Mail but not my full sized Mac PowerBook, using the powerful mail application, Mail?
According to some people who have posted responses as to why Leopard Mail does not support animations, Apple does not read the Discussion posts! I have made more than one trip to the Apple Genius Bar and asked why Apple does not read the Discussions and each time the answer has been, "Apple does read the Discussions. Apple employees do not reply to them." I really do think Apple reads these posts somewhere along the line and that software changes do occur because of some of the posts.
Apple: If you are reading this, what gives with Leopard Mail and gif animations? Why the step back from gif animation in Tiger Mail to hit and miss (mostly miss) animation in Leopard Mail? Why not post an Article explaining why animations should not work/do not work in Leopard Mail?

I have used OS X Feedback on several occasions and have never heard back from Apple regarding any of my queries nor have I seen any software changes come about because of any of my queries.
Apple doesn't respond to Feedback; they get way too many to have any time for that, but their engineering staff do keep track of what comes in and evaluates suggested changes all the time. I've made a good number of suggestions and I do get replies, but that's only because I have the email addresses for those who make the decisions, and I can't give those out.
Just because you haven't seen changes doesn't mean they didn't consider your suggestions or that they aren't planning on incorporating a feature that you and others have suggested in the future. After all, the next version of OS X, Snow Leopard, isn't due until next year, and they're working on things for beyond that even now. Nothing has been finalized, so everything is open to more change after Snow Leopard.

Why don't my alerts work?

I have the data alerts set on my account but I am not being alerted at the appropriate time. I am being alerted when I am past my data limit. Why are you promoting a service that does not work? I do not want to keep paying overage charges. Then I can't even file a complaint....I am so frustrated with Verizon right now. It is never easy to get answers. I need to know why my alerts are not working.

You can set alerts at verizonwireless.com, and you can set alerts on most smartphones as well, and those can be highly customized as to when you are alerted.
Go to settings, data usage, and there are/should be options to view, limit, and alert you as to your mobile data usage on the phone itself.

Why don't our links work in browser based help?

We are using RH8, Windows 7 and outputting to browser based AIR help.
We cannot get our links to work in browser based air help. These are links between projects. Links within projects work fine.
We output our help and it worked fine on our test system. We tested it on another system and it worked fine.
However, when we attached it to our application, the links between projects did not work.
We think it might have something to do with the address, which looks something like this
http://199.166.111.177/smartc/smartsol/mgproj/ etc. etc.
When we set up the links they were set to something like this
../../../smartc/smartsol/mgproj/ etc. etc.
We are thinking this might be the problem.
Our question is - is there a universal naming convention that will allow us to publish our help anywhere.
We don't put our help on a server and have people access it that way. We provide the help file and let the user put it anywhere they want.
I may not be saying this correctly.
any help is appreciated.
Pat

I'm having a similar problem, if I understand the original question, in accessing my AIR help from a server ...
Background:
In RH8 html, I've been creating a Web Help project have successfully integrating it into our product for a couple of years now (thanks to all on the forum who've helped me with bugaboos along the way, Peter et al!). The project is bundled in with our software and pushed out to our hardware device (let's call it a router) and the user can access their router's UI via a custom path and use the help when needed from their home network and remotely.
Today I've been looking at changing over to an AIR help end product to replace the Web Help project. In my initial tests, using the exact same project I'm using for the Web Help, when I push the AIR help out to my test bed I see a blank page when I access it. I'm using the same path and same files and have flushed my browser cache. When I build it, it is set as a "Browser Based Help". My thinking is something along the lines of certificates / security etc. but don't know and don't see a setting.
Any suggestions would be appreciated!
Update:
I may have a solution ... a developer noticed that in one of the .js files a file names "AC_OETags.js" was listed with caps. If you are running apache on your server it will not like the capitalization in referenced in the file (the actual name of the file can have caps). Once the link to the file was made lower case the help system worked as designed.
Good luck everyone.

Why don't KeyNote links work in iBooks Author

Links that work in a Keynote presention on Mac, don't work once that presentation has been imported into an iBooks Author book. Have others had a similar problem?
Thanks

What resolution is the keynote file? I found that when ibooks author scales the keynote file to fit into the widget, the hyperlinks dont scale, or at least not at the same rate as the resto of the document. You may therefore find that the hyperlinks are there - just not in teh place you expect.

Why don't dashboard widgets work in 10.7?

I've been googling around, looking for an answer to this question--I've downloaded several useful widgets only to discover OSX 10.7.5 Lion won't open them. I get the error message: "You can't install *.wdgt because it is not a valid widget." After some searching, I have managed to find widgets that do work, but they never have the extension .wdgt, and when I look in my library folder, the active widgets I'm able to find have a .plist extension. Are there any good sites for finding working widgets? Are there ways to convert older widgets?
Most of the ones on the Apple Dashboard widget page say they'll work on any version after 10.4 or so, and I'm assuming, as are many, that Apple's just abandoning the Dashboard interface. The weird thing is that there are still two different ways to access a "Dashboard" or people seem to think that they're both called a "Dashboard"--the first Dashboard that I get with a three-finger sideswipe--and then the other one accessed by F4 that more resembles the iPad OS.
Basically, I don't care how I access widgets or apps or gadgets or whatever, via a Dashboard or dock, but it's pretty crazy that there's less functionality for a MacBook Pro than for your most basic smartphone.

.plist folders are not widget files. They're just preference files for those widgets. All widgets have a .wdgt extension and will reside in the Library/Widgets folder either at the root of the hard drive or in your Home directory.
As to the problem, it's possible that the widgets you're trying to use may just be too old and not have been updated for the later versions of Dashboard. If you'll post the names of the widgets you wish to use, someone may be able to check them and see if it's indeed such a problem.
Finally, there is only one Dashboard, though there may be more than one command or activity that will open it. A three-finger sideswipe, I believe, changes Spaces and does not activate Dashboard per se, though Dashboard may open in a space.
Regards.
