Black text boxes on new MBP

http://www.acans.org/images/blacktextboxes.jpg
That happens to every program, including Apple registration and Microsoft registration.
Ideas?

It's not the AV.
I installed Microsoft office 2011 first, but it had the black boxes. I then installed Adobe Acrobat, it had the black boxes too. I install the AV last, and just used it for the example.

  • Master's w/black text box and foreign language

    How do I edit the text box in a master, its black, i want something like a grey background.  Why is the default text a foreign language...  Is there a way to change the border or page colors.  Its currently white, can I do something like grey

    Are you trying to create a photobook?
    The backgrounds of the text fields are defined by the theme. You have to find a theme with a color you like. You can only switch between the default color and transparent. If I want a different background I add a picture with constant color and add a textfield with transparent background  on top.
    The foreign language is a kind of latin. It is this way to help you to easily recognize that you need to enter your own text instead of the default text.
    What you can change in a theme, widely depends on the theme you selected. To modify the elements, click "Edit Layout".
    Then click the "fan"-button to select a background.
    If you want more control over the themes, you need to manually edit the theme files in the Library.

  • The kerning tool appears to be stuck? Cannot make any changes to text boxes in new or existing files

    When I try to adjust the kerning in any text box, whether it be in a new or existing file, the change will not take place. It will just automatically return to either the default. Please help!

    Thanks, perhaps this might help. as you can see the kerning is set at 300 which should make the T/E very far apart they aren't. The "after" shows the kerning set at (0), even though I made the change to 300. The cursor is in the correct place, even though it doesn't appear on the screenshots.

  • How do you link 2 text boxes in new pages

    How do you link two text boxes in the new pages.  The old one was much easier to use.

    I think this is impossible! Ive been trying today and I couldnt do it. Then I opened up an old document that had text linking in it and I got a message telling me that the text boxes were now unlinked!  Why would you remove that? For me this software is now useless. How on earth do I get my old version back?

  • Transparent Black text box? HOW???

    Normally i am pretty good at figuring out these things but
    this has been driving me crazy.
    I was viewing a website a while back that had listed
    emergency information with white text within a transparent black
    box that allowed you to see through the box itself to the webpage
    below while still reading the text. How is this done? I have
    fireworks 8.

    Found it!

  • Where has the black background box behind attachments come from?

    Suddenly I have a black box behind any attachments. It is like a text box. It has not been there before!
    If I choose to print to a pdf attachment in an eMail the attachment id superimposed on a black text box with an 'X' in the corner, click the 'x' the lot disappears. But if you turn the attachment into an icon and highlight it then erase it, left behind is a black text box into which any new typed message appears.
    How do I get rid of this, any suggestions well received.
    Thanks,
    David

    I get this when sending invoices from Market Circle's Billings.
    One workaround I have found that works is once the file and a new message is open in mail, create a new message then drag and drop the attachment over then create your message in the new mail.
    I agree though - need a permanent fix soon.

  • Pages 5.1 Text box problems

    In Pages 5.1 when I paste a graphic in a text box (e.g., a PNG file), it no longer stays in the text box.  This was a great feature in Pages '09, the ability to paste a graphic into the text box, add figure legend text, and a line around the whole thing and have it remain as one unit.

    If you still have Pages v4.n located in /Applications/iWork after the v5+ upgrade, I would recommend you revert to an old friend.
    In v5, you insert the Text Box, then from the Format > Style > Fill, you choose Image Fill, Scale to Fit (or Fill), and then Choose.. to pick your image from disk. The Toolbar media choice will just plop an image over the top of your Text Box. Dragging and dropping an image over the Text Box places the image behind the Text Box. This can lead to an interesting crop effect.
    If your image choice will be too dark to see the original black Text Box "Text" placeholder, then you may want to initially choose a lighter font before paragraph 2 above. Othewise, a double-click after the image fill will provide edit focus in the Text Box. A downside is that changing the opacity will effect the image and the text.

  • White Text Box

    ok, I'm stumped, I want to make a white text box instead of a black text box, and use various colors for the text. Could someone please shed light on how to accomplish what seems like a very simple task??!! I see nothing in the manual or in the search of the FCP PDF help.
    Thank you

    It fairly simple, but you'll need to video tracks. Place a color matte on track one (V1) and make it the color you want. For white, use something no higher than 220-220-220 (255-255-255 may create contrast problems with your text). Next, use the Boris Title 3D plugin that came bundled with FCP and place the Title 3D clip on V2 so it lines up right above the color matte.
    Create the text in the Title 3D composition panel as needed.

  • There is a text box on the screen.  How do I get rid of it?

    I have a black text box on my screen.  How do I get rid of it?

    I'm not quite sure what it is you're seeing, but if it's a Terminal window (click on the window and see if you see the "Terminal" menu at the very top left of the screen) you can close it just like any other application - go to the Terminal menu and click "Quit Terminal".
    If that's not it, it's possible you're seeing a Voiceover border - go to System Preferences, Universal Access, click Voiceover and turn it off if it's on.

  • Black dot in text box, can't enter texg

    Hello,
    I have a black dot in both text boxes, and when I try to enter text, the canvas gets "crazy" on the left side. I fixed it this morning, but now I have it again, and I can't recall what I did to fix it.
    Thank you

    Your guess is correct, Sir Doug of Gilmore, as is your suggestion to create a new track.
    The black dot appears when the selected track is a graphic or other object, such as a background.
    To the original poster and asker of questions, LiveType treats eveything as if it were typeable. Press any key and your object will appear once more, in so far as that it fits in the frame.
    Please do not ask which one is the "Any" key.
    Disclaimer: "typeable" is not neccessarily a word that you will find in a dictionary.

  • When I attempt to send a text from the new iPad, a dialog box appears with the option to either sign in with Apple ID Password or Create New Account. I try signing in using my Apple ID password but IMessage informs me that email address cannot be verified

    When I attempt to send a text from the new iPad, a dialog box appears with the option to either sign in with Apple ID Password or Create New Account. I try signing in using my Apple ID password but IMessage informs me that email address cannot be verified because it is already in use ??? What am I doing wrong?

    settings -> iTunes & App Store
    click on apple ID listed there
    select Sign Out
    sign in with the proper account
    from then on, when the store ask for your password it should be with the correct ID
