Apple X11 for openoffice; graphics and text getting blurred after update

I downloaded a program from openoffice to have an alternative powerpoint presentation program. i successfully downloaded the program but when i was opening it a dialogue box says that i need to have Apple`s X11. and so i downloaded X11 but after a series of steps of installing it the final step where you choose where to place the application (McKintosh HD), it says it already has its latest version. and yet i CANNOT open the openoffice. how come? i`m getting frustrated now rechecking again and again. i need some advice on this.
and also, after i updated for the newest mac OS X how come the text and the graphics on the computer are getting blurred? an update is supposed to be better than the old one, but how come it`s the other way around?

The X11 package required cannot be downloaded from Apple. It is on the OS X installation disc that came with your computer in the Optional Installs package. Simply open Optional Installs and select the X11 package for installation.
Be sure to set your Display for millions of colors when using Open Office.
If you prefer a solution that doesn't require X11 try Neo Office instead. Also an Open Source project Neo Office doesn't require X11 to run. There is an Intel version of Neo Office available.

  • I have tried to change my User id which is an email address I no longer want to use. Now I am constantly getting requests from icloud and Apple ID for my password and cant get into my icloud account.

    I have tried to change my User id which is an email address I no longer want to use. Now I am constantly getting requests from icloud and Apple ID for my password and cant get into my icloud account.

    To change the iCloud ID you have to go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account, provide the password for the old ID when prompted to turn off Find My iPhone, then sign back in with the ID you wish to use.  If you don't know the password for your old ID, or if it isn't accepted, go to https://appleid.apple.com, click Manage my Apple ID and sign in with your current iCloud ID.  Click edit next to the primary email account, change it back to your old email address and save the change.  Then edit the name of the account to change it back to your old email address.  You can now use your current password to turn off Find My iPhone on your device, even though it prompts you for the password for your old account ID. Then save any photo stream photos that you wish to keep to your camera roll.  When finished go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account and choose Delete from My iDevice when prompted (your iCloud data will still be in iCloud).  Next, go back to https://appleid.apple.com and change your primary email address and iCloud ID name back to the way it was.  Now you can go to Settings>iCloud and sign in with your current iCloud ID and password.

    You should have your stuff separate from your mom's. Delete all the apps downloaded or purchased with your mom's Apple ID and download or purchase them with your own Apple ID. Back up files and data first if possible.

    I created a new apple id for my iphone and ipad which work great and allow me to access Icloud. on my macbook air  I can't get it to use my new apple id for icloud. It keeps going back to my old apple id and doesn't afford me to alter it. I use system preferences-icloud and it just wants to verify the old apple id but doesn't afford me the opportunity to delete teh account or edit it like the iphone5 and ipad. Help?

  • Is there a way for a form user to load graphics and text in same field?

    I am aware that you can load text into a text field and graphics into an image field.  However, I would like to load a document containing text and graphics (e.g., MS Word or RTF) into a single field on a PDF form.  Is there any way to do this?

    Paul,
    I believe that the example of attaching a file that you have provided will solve the problem.  I am using LiveCycle Designer, so using the code that is in your example should be no problem.  The end-user will use Adobe Reader, so as you mentioned, I will use Acrobat to extend the features so that the form can be used by Reader.
    Thanks so much for your help,
    Daniel

    It is part of the PDF AcroForm side of things .....Are you using Reader or Acrobat to fill the form. If Reader then you will have to Reader Extend to make this work ....if Acrobat then you simply need to add some code. I have attached a sample that shows you how to do it if you want it.

  • HT2105 When you get a apple receipt for itunes songs and you paid with a itunes gift card do they charge you or give you store credit what's store credit is it good or bad or does it charge you if you have a free account with no credit cards at all is it

    When you get a apple receipt for itunes songs and you paid with a itunes gift card do they charge you or give you store credit what's store credit is it good or bad or does it charge you if you have a free account with no credit cards at all is it bad?

    iTunes credits are, for example, if you download a song from the store and it's found to be corrupt - if the track can't be fixed then iTunes support will tend to give you a song credit for a free download.
    When you purchase music from the store then any credits that you have will be used first, then any balance that you have (e.g. from iTunes gift cards or allowances), and any remaining amount will be taken from your credit card.

  • Is it possible to highlight text in Apple Mail for incoming mails and outgoing mails?

    Is it possible to highlight text in Apple Mail for incoming mails and outgoing mails?

    If you mean that you wish to highlight messages from certain people or domain names, then if you select Preferences under 'Mail' (top left hand corner next to the Apple logo when you're in the mail application) and then select the right hand icon marked 'rules', then click on Add Rule and hopefully the rest is fairly self explanatory.
    Best of luck

  • I have one apple ID for my iTunes and another apple ID for everything else. if I download the new OS, can I switch my iTunes apple ID once it's all downloaded?

    my family all shares one apple ID for iTunes so we can share music. but I have my own apple ID for my phone and ipad. on my phone, I can have two separate IDs, but I'm wondering if its the same for my macbook pro. If i download the new OS, it asks for my apple ID. I would like to put in my personal one so that i can get texts and such. but I would want my iTunes to be my family account. is this possible?

    You can use one account with iTunes on your Mac, and different account(s) with the Mac App Store (for buying/downloads apps or OS updates for your Mac), iCloud (System Preferences > iCloud) and Messages (Messages > Preferences, or command-comma)

  • Need to improve graphics and text quality

    I'm looking for a tutorial or any document that will teach me how to improve graphics and text quality in Motion. Quality is extremely poor. With same settings, graphics and text quality in FCP is far better. Why?

    The quality problems when using Motion titles in FCP usually result from a discrepancy in the Field Dominance/Field Order settings between the FCP timeline and the Motion project.

  • I have one apple ID for my MAC and another used for both my iPhone and IPad.  Purchases from iTunes don't appear on either my iPhone or iPad only only the MAC. How do I sync the two IDs?

    I have one Apple ID for my MAC and iTunes account and another that is used for both my iTunes and iPad.  When I purchased music from iTunes using the Mac ID, the music isn't available on my iTunes or iPad.  Neither lets me change my ID so how do I fix this issue so I can play the music on all three?

    Hello chlanli
    You would need to use one Apple ID for purchases in order to get them across all of your devices and computer. If you want you can use one Apple ID for purchases and the other one to sync personal data. The article below will explain further.

  • Sound Notifications for Missed Calls and Text Messages

    Aside from the very small green light in the upper right corner (Bionic) - is there a way to get audio notifications for missed calls and texts?  I'm missing a lot of calls and texts because I'm not checking the screen constantly.  Thanks!

    I am not sure about the Bionic phone specifically but I am pretty sure there should be notification sounds.
    My phone, the Droid 2 global has ringtons, and notification sounds separately.
    Have you tried looking in the sound settings?

  • I just recently purchased a mini iPad for my child. It was set up in the Apple store with my Apple id. I now want to create an Apple id for my child and switch it over, how can I go about that. I already downloaded some of the games from my account.

    With a new account, you'll need to rebuy the games.
    Each user should have their own icloud account, otherwise they end up getting the same emails, contacts, calendars, notes, reminders, etc. - usually not what you want.  But if all have been sharing the same itunes ID, keep it that way, you can have different IDs for itunes and icloud.
    If you already have another icloud account, and want to set it up on a device, then go to Settings>icloud, scroll to bottom of screen and tap Delete Account.  This only disconnects the device from that account, no data is lost on icloud.  Then enter the account ID that you want to use.

  • Copy and paste graphics and text in Acrobat 9 Pro

    I'm a new user of Acrobat Pro and am trying to copy a combination of text and graphics from the top half of a page to the blank bottom half of the page. I've not had much success with what I thought would be a simple thing to do and would welcome suggestions. Here's a summary of the options I've tried so far for graphics, text, and both text and graphics.
    A. Graphic Alone:
    1. When I use the Select Object Tool, I can highlight the graphic but when I unclick the left mouse button, the highlighting disappears, so I can't copy the graphic.
    2. When I use theTouchup Object Tool, only an oblong portion of the graphic is highlighted when I click on the object. The only way to highlight all of the graphic is to hold down the shift key and click on successive portions of the graphic until I have highlighted all of it. When I then right-click the mouse, I can copy the graphic. However, when I then place the mouse cursor in the bottom half of the page and do a righ-click paste, the graphic appears to be pasted on top of the original graphic. I can then drag the graphic to the bottom half of the page. I can also paste the object on to a blank page from Create PDF>Blank Page. Overall, this is not elegant nor intuitive, but it does work.
    B. Text Alone:
    1. I can copy the text but when it is pasted, it is not formatted like the orginal, nor can I place it where I want on the bottom half of the page. This is true whenther I use the basic copy function or the Touchup Text Tool.
    2. When I use the Touchup Object Tool and click on the text, Acrobat places similarly-formatted text in a box that I can then right-click and copy. I can then paste the text on a blank page with the text formatted identical to the way it was on the original page. With several blocks of text formatted differently, this procedure could work but would require a lot of work to create a format with placement identical to the original.
    C. Text and Graphics Together
    1. When I use the Touchup Object Tool and attempt to highlight the top half of the page, the Tool insists on including the blank bottom half of the page in its selection. I can copy everything on the page but I haven't found a way to select just the objects in the top half of the page -- I can copy some, but the selected objects aren't highlighted and so this isn't a satisfactory route. It seems obvious to me that Touchup Object should be able to select just the objects I want. But then, even the Select Object Tool doesn't do that, either -- it Selects an object but then you can't do anything with the object.
    2. Using the snapshot tool, I can highlight both graphics and text and copy them -- I can even export them them to another program via the clipboard and create an external file. However -- regardless of whether I just copy and paste, or do a  Touchup Object file import, or whether the file is bitmap or jpg -- when I paste the resulting object or file onto a page in Acrobat, the image always comes out at 200% of its orginal size. I looked for a Resize option, but couldn't find one.
    This is all very time-consuming and frustrating since what I am trying to do is not rocket science. Surely there is a simple way to do this.
    By the way, there are no security restrictions on the file.

    Hi,
    In response to both "...is that normal?" — Yes.
    PDF is not a file format meant to support editing of layout/format/etc or text content creation.
    You'd master content in an authoring application (FrameMaker, InDesign, MS Word, etc.).
    The PDF file is the output of this mastered content.
    Some minor touchups are possible with Acrobat (think whiteout/correction tape on a printed piece of paper -- PDF page content is the electronic "finished paper").
    With that said, you might play with File > Create PDF > From Blank Page and use the Typewriter tool to enter text.
    To output MS Word content to PDF use the Adobe PDFMaker.
    Prior to Word 2007, you'd use "Adobe PDF" on the menu line.
    With Word 2007, you'd use the Acrobat Ribbon features.
    Be well...
