Apple applications printing -- black fonts are now blue in lion

as of Lion, both my laptop and my desktop macpro exhibit this behavior. All Apple created applications now print black text as blue. Other apps such as adobe reader do not. also things printed from Google Chrome work fine, as long as you don't allow CHrome to use the Apple system printer controller utility.
anybody else have this problem?

Yes, must have accidentally hit Apple+F5 and turned on the Voice Over options. With my speakers turned off, I hadn't noticed the Voice Over function in action.
Thanks, it was driving me insane!

I cut and pasted a description from the Internet. It posted as a link in iPhoto. It seems to have made a global change--all my descriptions are now blue, underlined, and Times Roman 12 rather than Arial white. How can I get this back to the default?

Greetings,
I've never seen this issue, and I handle many iPads, of all versions. WiFi issues are generally local to the WiFi router - they are not all of the same quality, range, immunity to interference, etc. You have distance, building construction, and the biggie - interference.
At home, I use Apple routers, and have no issues with any of my WiFi enabled devices, computers, mobile devices, etc - even the lowly PeeCees. I have locations where I have Juniper Networks, as well as Aruba, and a few Netgears - all of them work as they should.
The cheaper routers, Linksys, D-Link, Seimens home units, and many other no name devices have caused issues of various kinds, and even connectivity.
I have no idea what Starbucks uses, but I always have a good connection, and I go there nearly every morning and get some work done, as well as play.
You could try changing channels, 2.4 to 5 Gigs, changing locations of the router. I have had to do all of these at one time or another over the many years that I have been a Network Engineer.
Good Luck - Cheers,
M.

I was told to uninstall then reinstall itunes because "no apple application support"so i did, now wont recognise my iphone and says to uninstall itunes and instll the 64-bit version of itunes so i did again,and again,and again.still wont work pls help me?

Let's try a standalone Apple Mobile Device Support install. It still might not install, but fingers crossed any error messages will give us a better idea of the underlying cause of why it's not installing under normal conditions.
Download and save a copy of the iTunesSetup.exe (or iTunes64setup.exe) installer file to your hard drive:
http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
Download and install the free trial version of WinRAR:
http://www.rarlab.com/
Right-click the iTunesSetup.exe (or iTunes64setup.exe), and select "Extract to iTunesSetup" (or "Extract to iTunes64Setup"). WinRAR will expand the contents of the file into a folder called "iTunesSetup" (or "iTunes64Setup").
Go into the folder and doubleclick the AppleMobileDeviceSupport.msi (or AppleMobileDeviceSupport64.msi) to do a standalone AMDS install.
(If it offers you the choice to remove or repair, choose "Remove", and if the uninstall goes through successfully, see if you can reinstall by doubleclicking the AppleMobileDeviceSupport.msi again.)
Does it install (or uninstall and then reinstall) properly for you? If so, can you get a normal iTunes install to go through properly now?
If instead you get an error message during the install (or uninstall), let us know what it says. (Precise text, please.)

Your Apple ID and phone number are now being used for iCloud on a new iPhone. Why did this pop up today?

Why did this pop up today?
Your Apple ID and phone number are now being used for iCloud on a new iPhone.

Turned on my Mac Pro a few minutes ago and I got the following "POP-UP" message.
" Your Apple ID and phone number are now being used for iCloud on a new iPhone. " ( my iPhone is not new. )
" If you recently signed into "xxxxx iPhone" you can ignore this notification."
On the bottom of this pop-up window is an "OK" button. Well it's NOT "OK" No option is offered if it is not "OK".
I have made no changes to my iPhone whatsoever. Just normal use today. In my iCloud settings everything is turned off except sharing Contacts.
I'd suggest you log on to iCloud.com with your Apple ID, and then go to Settings and look in the "My Devices" settings for anything you don't recognize.
I just did this. All of the devices are iPhones, iPads, and Macintoshes that I own and am familiar with.

The following message popped up on my MacBook Air: Your Apple ID and phone number are now being used for ICloud on a new IPhone. What does it mean? Should I worry?

Hi SLCfromMadison,
This is the message that you'll receive when your Apple ID is signed into on an iPhone. If you haven't done so, the article linked below details a number of steps that can help verify the security of your Apple ID should you think that an unauthorized person has access to it.

I rec'd an alert that my "Apple ID and phone no. are now being used for iCloud on a new iPhone." I am not using iCloud and I don't have a new iPhone. Is this something to worry about?

Howdy Libbidydooda,
There are a couple of possibilities that may apply to the email you have received regarding your Apple ID. The first is that the email may be a legitimate warning that your Apple ID has been compromised. For this reason I would suggest that you change the password to your Apple ID as soon as possible. Use the instructions on this page -
Apple ID: Changing your password - Apple Support
In order to increase security for your Apple ID you may want to set up and use two-step verification. See this article for information about it -
Frequently asked questions about two-step verification for Apple ID - Apple Support
The second possibilty is that the email is an attempt at "phishing" in order to get you to reveal personal information. Typically this is done with an email that looks like it comes from an official source but has links to web pages that, while they may look like they are real, may actually be gathering your information for use by others. This article has more information about phishing -
Identifying fraudulent "phishing" email - Apple Support
For this reason it is important that you do not follow any links in the email, as they may compromise your security.
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
Best,
Brett L

Several Fonts are now missing in Microsoft Office (2010), which were present before the upgrade. Most notably, Calibri Bold will no longer display.

Has anyone else had anything similar happen? After I upgraded to Yosemite, several font families that were present in Office 2010 are now suddenly gone. Any document that I use Calibri Bold in now displays as something similar to Times. Even opening new documents, powerpoints, etc, does not fix the issue. On all web browsers, it displays correctly, and even as I type this question, I am able to use Calibri Bold, simply not within Office itself. Any clue?

It might be the case that OS X Yosemite disabled your MS fonts, by default. I found that Calibri Bold & Italic was disabled, so I had to enable it again.
HOW TO DO THIS...
In the "Spotlight Search" on the upper right-hand corner, type in "Font Book" and open the application.
--Click on "All Fonts."
--Scroll to "Calibri." Click on the font to open the drop-down menu. This should show you various font styles for that font family.
--If it says "off" next to it, right-click that style, and choose "Enable (font)."
Restart your documents, and you should be good to go.

"apple application support was not found" now what?

Installing itunes on Vista just to manage content on my ipad and I got the above message. How do I fix that?

Hi b noir,
I've been following your posts for my iTunes compatibility problems with Vistas. So far, progress has been steady - but now I'm stumped.
Apple customer service wanted me to Uninstall/Reinstall iTunes - intending to walk me through the problematic new-device setup. Prior to now, iTunes has had quirks with Vistas, but we were running just fine. However, per Apple, I Uninstalled and now - I just cannot get it Reinstalled.
I cleared a few hurdles until I got this "Apple Application Support not found error 2" message.
Again, I followed your steps and after trying the standalone AAS install, I get the following message:
"A later version of Apple Application Support is already installed on this computer."
So, between these two messages:
AAS not found error 2
"A later version of Apple Application Support is already installed on this computer."
I don't know what to do next.
Can you please advise?

Photosmart 8700 not printing Black & colours are washed out

Have an A3 Photosmart 8700 printer which has for no reason started to print in muted / knocked back colour and a solid black is now printing out as a washed out grey.
I've cleaned the printheads at all levels, tried a new cartridge, all of the normal things but cannot get it to work & cannot find anything online for this model.
In addition occasionally the printer will quit with a 'Filter Failed' message and I have to resend the document.
Please Help! Thanks.

Will Apple bring back black font for iOS 7?

Please make an option available to change the font to black in iOS 7. The white font is so hard to see against most wallpapers and in the darker text bubbles.

Sorry but you are not speaking to Apple here as these are user to user forums. If you wish to express your opinion to Apple directly then you can provide them feedback at the link below:

My fonts are now in Japanese HELP

I have been wiorking on many projects in labview 7.1, 8.0 and 8.2. When I opened a large application (7 build scripts and ~300 VI) all my fonts misteriously turned from English so Japanese. What gives this is a serious problem. If I start a new VI it is not japanese font, What happened? Any help would be very good since this is going to be installed on tuesday.

This issue is also being discussed here:
http://forums.ni.com/ni/board/message?board.id=170&thread.id=191355&view=by_date_ascending&page=1
Here are some answers to Smootastic's questions:
1. No different languages - just U.S. English.
2. When LabVIEW is not running, I double click in the VI and yes it still has the Asian Character set. Sometimes I have seen it, when built into an EXE, with squares instead of characters. Other times blank characters that I can copy and paste into notepad to see the digits. Some controls still are in English. See the attached picture.
3. My PC and most of the other front panels are still in English.
Usually my source code VIs are ok.. but once they get saved with the weird fonts they always open that way and I have to restore from a previous version. When I see these characters in my EXE I just rebuild it and usually the problem is fixed - I think I restart LabVIEW before rebuilding though.
Thanks for looking into this issue.

2 weeks ago, Firefox changed. It will not print graphics in a web page or show them in print preview. It also does not provide the ability to select options in "print forms". they are now grayed out.

I am using www.investools.com
It prints the graphics in the normal page fine
but when I switch to prophetcharts, which loads javascript, the graphs do not display or print.
The text on the left side of the display show but graphs do not, even when I reduce printing size to 30%.
I am using an HP 8500 Pro Officejet.
Everything works in IE fine (but I don't want to use IE).

Hi ArielAce , thanks for getting back to me!
I would recommend downloading and running the HP Print and Scan Doctor.

How many titler fonts are included with CS3?

Since installing Prem CS3 I can only use about 16 fonts in the titler with about the same that are listed but not usable. (will just print circles or such like). In Prem Pro 2.0 I had loads but not any more. I have just installed on a fresh machine under XP and all just the same.
I'm sure there should be more but certain how to progress this one???
This was a new install on fresh H/D with only Adobe and Matrox software installed apart from the normal Microsoft mouse/keyboard and virus software.
Regards to all

There are probably some fonts included with CS3, but fonts are managed by your OS. Many programs will install additional ones, and there are thousands available for purchase, plus some free ones. The installation of fonts is handled through Control Panel>Fonts. If you had more, reinstalled the OS, and have fewer now, it is because the OS comes with but a few. Most of the fonts that you remember were probably for other software, like wordprocessors, etc.
Before you did your reinstall, did you do a backup of your system? You should be able to find these other fonts and reinstall them on your system. I keep all my TT fonts in one folder and all of my PS fonts in another with necessary sub-folders, and then use either they system or a font manager to install the ones that I need. Last time I looked, I had about 6000, but only a handful are installed on the system at boot.
I'd check the latter discs of the set for any Adobe fonts, that might be included. In some previous additions of Adobe programs, they were in Goodies>Fonts, but a lot has changed. Also, IIRC, all included Adobe fonts are now OpenType, so you may have to poke around a bit to find them. As I do not have CS3, I can't give you the exact location. Also, I use the old, discontinued ATM Pro 3.5 to manage my OT and PS fonts, loading in just the extras that I need for a job, and it has not been available for some years. Other font management utilities can do pretty much the same.

Firefox 4 is hard to read, the fonts are fuzzy as in IE 9

Hi, with Firefox 4 the fonts are now the same as in Internet Explorer 9 : it is unclear, mostly in nonserif fonts.
Is there a way I can disable that strange new feature?

Hi Co-rel, for the windows Update, I got this message : "This download is not appropriate for your computer"
I believe too it is something in my system because it does the same for Internet Explorer 9. Also on my laptop it really looks fine. I really would like to know what is that kind of new feature that is giving me trouble.
In my desktop have a graphic card. Would it be part of the clue?
