A windows 7 text issue and resolution, missing text found.

So one of our editors suddenly noticed that she was missing portions of text in slides.  Doing a slide by slide comparison, I determined that it was displaying only a portion of the text, the rest had shifted out of view, but was still in the text box.  Both said they were using Arial 15 as font, but one was visibly larger.
Determined that the user has chosen medium font size (125 percent of normal) in her Font settings in Windows 7.  This upscales the fonts, but no other elements, and even thugh it reports as Arial 15, it is more like Arial 18 in size and thus shifted the text.  Reverting to Small font (100 percent, default) resolved the problem.  Changed her screen resolution so that all elements are changed in size to resolve the usage issue.
Figured this might be of interest to the community and hope it saves some headaches.

Did not mean to post as question, answer included in first post.

  • Window & frame screen size and resolution

    hi,
    i have just finished my website:
    - done with dreamweaver mx and mac
    - only html with a menu on the left frame that always stays
    the same and pictures on the main/right frame
    - haven´t had any trouble opening the website with
    safare or internet explorer in my computer.
    the problem seems to be that in some PCs, the left menu
    doesn´t appear completely, the last 4 lines from the bottom
    disappear under the screen and you need to scroll down, which is
    not how it´s meant to work.
    this might be a silly thing to ask for it´s simplicity
    but i can´t seem to make it work. can someone offer some help?
    thanks!!

    Don't use frames.
    The reason for using or not using frames should be based on
    a) your site's
    needs, and b) your willingness to accept the potential
    problems that frames
    can create for you as developer and maintainer of the site
    and for your
    visitors as casual users of the site.
    I am down on frames because I believe that they create many
    more problems
    than they solve.
    Judging from the posts here, and the kinds of problems that
    are described,
    the kind of person most likely to elect to use frames is also
    the kind of
    person most likely ill-prepared fo solve the ensuing problems
    when they
    arise. If you feel a) that you understand the problems and b)
    that you are
    prepared to handle them when they occur, and c) that you have
    a need to use
    frames, then by all means use them.
    As far as I know, the most comprehensive discussions of
    frames and their
    potential problems can be found on these two links -

  • Revel-Windows 8 upload issue and request

    Windows 8 Revel crashes whenever I try to upload pictures in a folder that has a video in it (even if the video isn't selected). Any fix coming up?
    Also, pls is the windows 8 version going to gain video support sometime soon?
    Thanks

    Thanks Avinash.
    1) I have the latest update to the app (actually 1.0.3.1).
    2) I am now able to upload photos without the app crashing. It doesn't seem to be able to upload videos still though unfortunately.
    However, it appears the "auto import" feature is no longer enabled because my subscription has expired. As a result, I wasn't able to test whether the imports work when automatically done (used to crash before).
    Thanks

  • Toshiba Satellite a505-6005 hard drive issue and questions regarding options I may have

    Issue: start up computer and windows does not start. It eventually goes to a startup repair screen and eventually says "resolving disk errors...", and that's if it even gets to that screen. Unfortunately I never made a recovery disk or system image discs (I know that was not smart). I did however kept my files backed up so that was good.
    Steps I took: Took it to Best Buy and the tech advised me that the Black Tie 2 year protection had expired on Jan 30th 2012, and so it could not be repaired for free. I asked the tech there how much it would cost to fix and they had advised me that it was most likely a hard drive issue and that it would cost nearly $400 to replace/fix it. So I decided to buy a new Asus K53E-BBR14 laptop since it was not much more. When I got home and loaded everything up and got the computer to how I want, I went ahead and made a recovery disc and system image disc's. I tried using the recovery disc that I had made with my Asus in the Toshiba laptop and boot it from the dvd drive and it did not get anywhere. So I ASSUME that it really is a hard drive error because the RAM worked just fine in my new laptop and "repairing disk errors.." means something is wrong with the hard drive:
    Now that you know the background of what has happened my questions are as followed:
    1. Can I buy a new hard drive for the Toshiba and use the recovery and system image disc's i created on the new hard drive that i install in the toshiba? and just removed the bloatware from Asus (or does that not even get added to the disc's I created)?
    2. If so, will it prompt me to enter the Windows 7 product key? and therefore using the product key located on the bottom of the toshiba?
    3. What other steps could I take to make this toshiba laptop salvageable? This way i can turn around and sell it.
    Thanks,
    Russell States

    Also,
    I noticed that i can purchase (well pay the shipping anyways) recovery media from Toshiba. Can I use that on a new hard drive installed in the toshiba?
    BTW ran the Windows Memory Diagnostics Tool and no problems were found with the memory. and i do not care about the old hard drive as I have MY files backed up. I just want to try to get this toshiba laptop back to being "like new".
    Thanks,
    Russell

  • Windows 7 iTunes 9 and Ipod touch Second Gen

    I have upgraded my computer to Windows 7 and now to iTunes 9. When I attempt to sync my iPod, it begins the process, which will last for about 1 minute. Then it freezes and reports back the the iPod is no longer connected. I also witnessed that one of my four cores on my CPU becomes locked at 100%, my sound becomes very cracked and the only way to resolve the issue is to reboot. I can honestly say that I did not try to sync my iPod since I upgraded to Windows 7.
    I uninstalled iTunes multiple times and reinstalled and still had the same error. I have also tried unplugging my iPod and replugging it back into the system and I got another error that it could not detect my iPod, yet Windows did find it as a device. I have reset my iPod as well just to be safe. Any idea's or is this just going to be a Windows 7 related issue and I will be sans iPod till they actually test and fix this in the future?

    I have been having the same troubles as you with itunes 9 and windows 7 with a 16gb 3g iphone. I did a full wipe restore then upgrade to 3.1.2 as I do with every update. Now I just recently began using windows 7 and it seems broken as I was only once able to get some songs to sync. I have actually wiped out windows and reinstalled and started over and still the same.

  • Firefox mage quality and resolution was superb when I used XP and Vista. Now that I have Windows 7, however (with the Firefox 3.6.3 version), the image quality and resolution is poor. Please help me!

    I am using the Firefox 3.6.3 version with my new Windows 7 operating system. When I used all the previous Firefox versions in my XP and Vista operating systems, image quality and resolution was excellent! However, now that I have upgraded to Windows 7 and Firefox 3.6.3, the image quality and resolution is poor (unacceptable for downloading purposes).
    == This happened ==
    Every time Firefox opened
    == I first activated my new computer and installed the Firefox 3.6.3.

    All my images are pixelated in firefox 3.6.3

    Not only on my site but on most sites I view.
    The issue is not solved by resetting the zoom text view (ctrl+0)
    The issue is not resolved by starting in safemode with add-ons disabled
    The problem seems to only affect .jpeg files and only on Windows 7 on my desktop; as I have viewed several sites using windows XP with my laptop, no issues.
    I had the same issue with IE8 and was able to fix the problem with by setting up the compatibility view for all sites. Issue fixed no problems at all. But nothing similar for firefox?
    Whats the deal?

  • Windows 7 64-bit and the 27" iMac (NOT the black screen issue)

    I'm trying to install Windows 7 64-bit Ultimate on a brand new 27" Core 2 Duo iMac. So far, I've been met with miserable failure. So far, installation starts without an issue, and gets to the point where "Expanding Windows files" is in bold text. It sits at 0% for approximately 10 minutes, then gives me an error saying that files could not be copied from the disc. (The error code is 0x80070017) The installer then quits and asks me to restart.
    I've used two different copies of this disc (Bought at best buy, not downloaded or pirated) with the same result. Am I missing some crucial step, is there an issue with this model iMac, or is there an issue with my particular iMac?

    Yeah, I'm using Boot Camp assisstant. I've got the 1TB drive split into 750GB for OS X, and 250GB (Reads as 232 in Win7) for Win7.

  • Windows 8.1 Audio and Video issues

    I recently updated Windows 8 to 8.1 on my 2012 MacBook Pro and it now appers that Headphone/Line In have stopped working.
    This only occurs in Windows mode, when running in OS X Mavericks the issue does not occur so I am assuming that it is a driver related issue rather than hardware.
    I also have an issue with dual monitor setup, if I attempt to change the resolution or go from Dual to Single then back again, it fails to locate the second monitor again.  Once again, this all worked with no issue before the 8.1 update and no issue occurs while running OS X.
    Has anyone else experienced these issues and/or know how to resolve them?
    I have gone through device manager and it indicates that all drivers are up to date.

    i too have the same issue.  I did a fresh Bootcamp install of Windows 8.1 64-bit on my mid 2011 iMac and my built in audio and headphones have stopped working on the Windows side.  OSX Maveriks is ok. 
    i also went to the device manager and all of my audio drivers are up to date...still no sound.
    i have uninstalled and reinstalled all audio drivers, disabled then enabled them several times...still no sound.
    i have unistalled the graphics driver (i read somewhere else that there was an issue with it)...but still no sound.
    can someone help us out?
    NOTE: i have a usb audio dongle that works on windows.  but it only controls my headphones.  when i plug in the headphones into the built in audio jack on the iMac it doesnt work.

  • X1 Display Resolution, Touchscreen Version (Windows 8.1 issue?)

    The display is nice and crisp, but the scaling (read: DPI setting in Control Panel\Appearance and Personalization\Display) really sucks. Chrome is all fuzzy fonts at 150% DPI, 100% and 200% is just so OK), and for many applications I have to go into a program's Compatibility settings to disable DPI scaling.
    That would be all fine if I wouldn't use a 24" monitor at work. There the display resolution is lower (yes, lower at 1900x1200 than the touchscreen's insanse resolution). So every time I switch displays I need to set DPI from 150% back to 100%, and also Chrome's default  zoom from 150% back to 100%... sucks. And of course all the icon sizes and most of the window scaling does not change until I log off and log on again.
    Also, disconnecting the display -- or putting the laptop to sleep and waking it up again -- is a constant struggle. Most of the time the display resolution is a weird 1024 and extended displays then, and have to disconnect and reconnect the Lenovo Display Link hub to make it work again.
    You would think that by now either Lenovo or Microsoft have figured out a way to work with different screens. While setting up my software and dropbox and software development environment was fast, the DPI issue and screen issue (and "Adaptive Function Bar... dont get me started!!!) really sucks.

    Hi thinkstorm, and welcome to the Lenovo User Community! 
    The main issue is that app developers (like Dropbox) have not tailored their apps for the leading-edge 2560x1440 resolution. Until that happens, we have to make do .
    I don't work for Lenovo. I'm a crazy volunteer!

  • After new itunes upgrade getting Windows error 126 that identifies MSVCR80.dll not found.  itunes unable to open. Anyone have cause and resolution.

    After installing new itunes upgrade on Windows Vista PC, itunes does not open. Getting error boxes identfiying Windows error 126 (error 7) plus; MSVCR80.dll not found.
    Anyone have casue and resolution?
    Apple support did not have file or process available to backoff to previous itunes version v11.1.3 to allow recovery so itunes could continue use with no problems as before this new upgrade.

    Solving MSVCR80 issue and Windows iTunes install issues.
    Thanks to user turingtest2 for this solution.
    Solving MSVCR80 issue and Windows iTunes install issues.
    If the above doesn’t do the trick entirely, then use the instructions in the following as it applies to the version of Windows you are using:
    HT1925: Removing and Reinstalling iTunes for Windows XP
    HT1923: Removing and reinstalling iTunes for Windows Vista, Windows 7, or Windows 8
    You may be required to boot into safe mode to complete the folder deletion process.

  • My MacBook Pro 13" (2012) is running Windows 7 on Bootcamp and there is an issue with the headset I'm using.

    My MacBook Pro 13" (2012) is running Windows 7 on Bootcamp and there is an issue with the headset I'm using. I use a cheap Logitech Stereo Headset H130, but since there is only on audio plugin on the computer, I purchased a 3.5 mm 4-pin smartphone audio adapter thingy. That allowed me to put both my the sound coming to my headset & the microphone on my headset onto one wire. Everything worked wonderfully when running the Mac OS since they probably have support for that kind of stuff. The problem is though that once I try to use the same method in Windows 7, the OS doesn't recognize my headset microphone at all, but, instead when recording my voice decides to use the built-in mac microphone. Using this adapter still allows me to hear from my headset, but not use the microphone and that becomes a problem. It might be so that Windows 7 doesn't have support\drivers for that... How should I continue from here on out? Any advice?

    From what I have read from others on here you may be out of luck. You would need the appropriate Windows drivers for the Cirrus chip in the Mac and no one has been able to successfully locate them. Apple wouldn't support this since Windows is an optional install.
    Sorry to bring the bad news.

  • Windows 8.0 and Windows 10 technical review installation issues and activation message keeps poping up?

    My Dell Inspiron E1705 had Windows Vista and I could not install the Windows 10 technical review, so I installed my Windows 8.0 and then I could install the Win10 tech review.So I'm reviewing the Win10 and now I keep getting a pop up screen with Windows
    asking to activate so to get ride of the messages popping up every boot up. I am attempting to activate but when I follow the instructions to activate entering the product key from the Windows 8.0 fails. I next select call and provide your installation ID,
    this process is you call in and an automated prompt ask for your installation ID, then it gives you some numbers to enter in groups A thru H, but my screen only shows A thru G?  My concern is that if I don't activate this windows it will stop and thus
    no review of Win10.
    Should I be concerned is activation necessary, Do I re-install Win10 and start over, I feel that I may have inadvertently caused the problem when I did the initial installation it ask if I wanted to keep information from the previous installed Windows 8
    or install clean? If I don't get any other options/solutions I may just do a clean install?
    Thanks in advance for your support.
    /Joe

    Hi Joe,
    So the situation here is you upgrade Windows 8 to Windows 10, and Windows 10 can't be activated?
    There is no need to activate Windows 10 in the Technical Preview period, and if you have issue activating Windows, you may try to run:
    1. Open Administrative command prompt (Windows key+x > A)
    2. Type: SLUI 3
    3. Enter the product key listed on the download site.
    And if you still get the activation issue, please contact Microsoft local license support team for further assistance.
