Certain characters not showing

I'm having a problem with certain characters not showing on Safari. Some websites are okay, but others, like Livejournal and babynames.com, only show about four characters per word. On some message boards, certain characters such as parentheses and capital L do not show up when I type them, but show up fine on the completed post.
What is going on? Do I need to download a new copy of Safari, switch to Firefox, or can this be fixed?
Thanks!

Apparently it's getting worse. There are eight more letters that don't appear.

  • Slideshow: why do certain photos not show?

    slideshow: why do certain photos not show; they are properly referenced
    Let me expand on this: I have 570 photos in a slide show and all are properly referenced in my library. In the slideshow window, I can see all the pics in the bottom box and when I run "preview slideshow", certain pictures don't appear in the top box whilst the curser moves across the picture in the bottom box. Likewise, if I run the full screen slideshow, that picture(s) does not appear (I have a blank screen); the next picture does show up, howerver... This happens with several dozen pictures, always the same, randomnley amongst the 570...

    Hello Tony and thank you. I regenerated and rebuilt thumbnails; I deleted the slide show and rebuilt it; nothing works. Now, I noticed something weird. All pictures are in an Aperture project and are properly referenced as I said; all the pictures in this project come from a old iPhoto project where some of the pictures are in a "Modified" folder, others in an "Original" project; it is all the pictures in the "Original" project that don't show up in the slide show.... Do you have any idea what I should do?

  • Why Chinese characters not showing up in JLabel correctly , sometimes ?

    I have a large program which uses a JLabel to display some Chinese characters in html, it was doing fine until the program grew larger and larger, then only html fonts in certain sizes will show up correctly, other sizes of the same fonts will show up as rectangles. It's not because it doesn't have these fonts, but it seems to be related to the complexity of the program. If I change the characters in rectangles to a different size ( smaller or larger ), they might show up correctly again (in the large program).
    I have a small test program below to see if a particular font size would show up correctly, they all showed up fine in this test, but if I try to display the same html in my large program, some sizes of characters will go wrong. I've even printed out the unicode and looked at them (6309 4f60 7684 9700 8981 ...), they are definitely in the Chinese character range.

    I called this test program from my large program, and it won't display correctly, it will only display all sizes of characters correctly if I run the test program by itself.
    I've posted a similar question in Java/Swing but got no answer. So I'm trying it here. The above test program will compile and run, it can display all sizes of html fonts correctly.Which means it's not lacking any fonts. I've even tried the following in my large program :
    dialog.validate();
    dialog.repaint();
    pane.validate();
    pane.repaint();
    pane.updateUI();
    A_Label.validate();
    A_Label.repaint();
    A_Label.updateUI();
    Still doesn't work, does anyone know why and how to fix it ?

    I've just made a breakthrough, the large program will work correctly if I comment out : A_Non_English_Label.setFont(Times_New_Roman_15_Font);
    But then the font doesn't look the way I wanted it to be.
    So I changed it to the following :
    ================================================
    Font Courier_New_15_Font=new Font("Courier New",0,15);
    A_Non_English_Label.setFont(Courier_New_15_Font);
    ================================================
    Now it looks not the same but similar to the way I wanted. Thus my question becomes : why it can't work correctly with "Times_New_Roman", but with "Courier_New" in the large program, they both displayed correctly in my small test program ? Is it because it takes too much resource to load the "Times_New_Roman" font ?

  • Chinese Characters not showing in Design View

    Version: DW MX 2004
    I have a file I created in FrontPage and am now migrating
    over to DW. Most of the language on the page is English, with a
    portion of Chinese.
    My Chinese characters do not show up in Design View, but when
    I preview or upload the page to the server (live), they show up ok
    in IE and FF. Everything worked fine in FrontPage.
    Why can't I see them in Design View? I have looked in the
    Help for languages, character sets, etc.

    Once again, no one seems to know much about this question.
    (I've noticed it's gone unanswered in previous years.)
    In the Knowledgebase, I find only this: "Encoded HTML
    documents created outside of Dreamweaver may not display correctly
    in Dreamweaver. This includes documents that have been hand-coded
    or created in another HTML editor."
    This was updated in March, 2006.
    Which leads me to say, bugger. I guess there's little point
    in accommodating those 1.2 billion Chinese.

  • Special characters not showing

    Hello, I am having a strange problem with showing special characters in the browser when I upload the site. (its fine when I view it on localserver)
    For example on my website: http://www.reese-test2.co.uk/
    if you do a search for example: 3GLG534WW - instead of seeing the degree symbol there is a �
    it should read 35° beam angle not  35� beam angle
    I know i could go through all 500 products and change the beam angle character on my SQL database to:   35&deg;
    But surely there is an easier way? This being a lighting website for my work I have other special characters that will also show up weird, so would be good if there was an easy fix to this. I am using WAMP, and DW CS6.
    Is there a line of code I can add to my results.php page that will force the characters to show properly?
    thanks
    Sara

    Hi Just thought I would update this post. My server provider said they cannot change the character set due to how they were set up, so had to do a find/replace in PHPmyAdmin - (SQL tab) instead.
    Ken thanks for your idea. This didnt initially work for me, so googled it and had to make a couple of changes to the code, but this then worked. "Replace" needs to be in caps and the brackets removed.
    Original:
    update [table_name] set [field_name] = replace([field_name],'[° ]','[&deg;]');
    Correct:
    UPDATE productsearch SET description = REPLACE (  description,  ‘°’,  ‘&deg;’);
    thanks for your help Ken Binney

  • International characters not showing

    When some international character set is selected in Language

    characters are showed.
    This is related to Freehand only, becouse when typing in any
    other aplication (ms word, publisher, even notepad), proper
    characters are shown.
    Is there any settings that I need to change or any other
    intervention for international characters to be used in FH ?
    BTW even when pasting text containing international

    This is FreeHand only because FreeHand does not support as
    wide character set (Unicode) as most of the apps.
    There are language versions of FreeHand, like Hebrew, that
    support some extended character sets but the standard English
    version can handle about the set available in Type1 font.

  • Thai characters not showing properly

    Hi,
    When creating a product catalog in thai language the characters do not show properly. The characters have small aspects attached to them that hover above as you can see here http://www.gte-premium.com but when editing in Indesign the small aspects that are meant to hover above overlap the portion of the character below and are not aligned left to right properly.
    I have tried every thai-friendly font I can find but this does not fix the problem, how can I amend this?
    Thanks in advance

    If you're using a well-made font, you can probably get the tone marks to behave by turning on the World-Ready Composer. It's exposed in InDesign CC and CS6, in the Paragraph menu I think, but if you're using an earlier version of InDesign it's a hidden feature that you would need to use a script or a plugin to turn on.

  • Certain Album Not Showing

    Hi I bought an album from the iTunes Store, but it is not showing in my library. (I have iTunes Match). When I go to view my past purchases in the iTunes Store, it says they are downloaded...Where are they???
    Using iTunes 11

    I've got a similar issue--certain songs show up on my iPod when I'm connected to iTunes and view my iPod contents thru iTunes, but when I eject the iPod and look for these certain songs on the iPod itself, they don't show up.
    I have tried deleting them from the iPod and then retransferring them to the iPod. Sometimes this may make a few of them show up, but then inevitably they disappear again from the iPod.
    I've tried resetting the iPod.
    These are not songs purchased from the iTunes store.
    Any ideas?

  • Chinese Characters Not Showing On Zen Ne

    Hi, those who are using Zen Neeon or have solutions to my problems, please do help.
    Chinese characters are not showing on my Zen Neeon.
    When I used the Zen Neeon Media Explorer or Creative Mediasource to rip songs from CDs, chinese characters appear perfectly fine. It's also fine when I used Windows Media Player to rip.
    However, once the songs are transferred to the player, chinese characters can't be read when they are playing. They can be read when I view them as 'playlists' on the player, but the Chinese song titles appear as funny characters on the LCD when the songs are playing.
    I have changed my computer's non-unicode to 'Chinese PRC'. So I really don't know what's wrong.
    Please help.
    Thanks!

    It is actually the language of the tag of the song that matters, not the language of the song itself. If the song has Chinese tag, then the language must be set to Chinese. Setting the language to Chinese will not affect songs that has English tag. So, if you have only English tag songs and Chinese tag songs, then setting the language to Chinese will work for both. However, if you have Chinese tag songs and Japanese tag songs, then you need to set the language accordingly, depending on whether you are transferring Chinese tag songs or Japanese tag songs.

  • Certain songs not showing up

    Hey guys. There are certain songs for the same artist that are not showing up on my iPod when I scroll under "Artists." They are on the iPod in general, but does anyone know why they aren't showing up? For example, I have 6 Tom Petty songs, all of them which are labeled as "Tom Petty," but when I scroll through Tom Petty under Artists, only one of the six songs shows up. The other five I have to find by scrolling under "Songs." Help!

    It's a bug/oddity.

  • Certain characters not appearing in the "full name" when sending e-mail

    I have certain characters in my full name of one of my e-mail aliases in iCloud. However, those characters are simply absent from the name shown as sender name when sending mail from Mail app in OS X. For me the problematic characters are C5 A1 and C4 8D (UTF-8 codes).

    Yes, š and č are those. Sorry, I wasn't sure if they will work here. I have my full name containing the š and č in the "Full Name" field of the e-mail alias settings on web interface to the iCloud Mail. But in Mail on OS X my name in the "From" field appears without those two characters (other characters are OK) when I select this alias. Also, those two characters are invisible at the recipient's side. And yes, if I sent a copy of such a mail to myself the š and č are missing again in the "From" field.
    However, I have the same full name with š and č for my main e-mail address (iCloud account name). Using this main e-mail address š and č appear everywhere!

  • Certain Items Not Showing Up in Local View f12 Preview

    I have been making some changes (very, very green with DreamWeaver and Website building ing eneral), and have run into this issue.  When making changes to the navigation/links from one page to the next, (that is the only change being made) the flexslider images do not show up in the F12 preview.  Is this just the way it is or should I be able to view with the F12 local host preview.  The last thing I want to do is make the changes, publish, and all hell breaks lose because the images are not showing up.

    The folders should be ok.  I copied directly from the previous user (10+ yrs exp) directly over to me.  I made a change to the "Our Team" page and successfully published to the site.  Here is a question -
    If I "get files: from the remote server, then those should be the files currently being used on the LIVE website.  ANd if I overwrite the local copy, then by all means, what is seen on the websiteshould be seen on the Local View as well.  That leads me to belive that this code can not be seen in that preview state?
    Here is the code in question:

  • Certain image not showing in email

    This issue happened using Firefox 14.0.1 in Windows7
    I have an email that loads several images from a specific website.
    All the images load except the company's logo. At first I thought it might be yahoo mail issue. However I tried opening same email in hotmail, it does not show up as well.
    I've tried all the solutions that firefox provided ( deleting cache, check media blocked, exceptions etc ) and it still not working. I've even re-installed Firefox.
    This problem only appeared on Windows7. I've the same version of Firefox in Mac and it's showing the logo.

    '''Try the Firefox SafeMode''' to see how it works there. <br />
    ''A troubleshooting mode, which disables most Add-ons.'' <br />
    ''(If you're not using it, switch to the Default Theme.)''
    * You can open the Firefox 4.0+ SafeMode by holding the '''Shft''' key when you use the Firefox desktop or Start menu shortcut.
    * Or use the Help menu item, click on '''Restart with Add-ons Disabled...''' while Firefox is running. <br />
    ''Don't select anything right now, just use "Continue in SafeMode."''
    ''To exit the Firefox Safe Mode, just close Firefox and wait a few seconds before using the Firefox shortcut (without the Shft key) to open it again.''
    '''''If it is good in the Firefox SafeMode''''', your problem is probably caused by an extension, and you need to figure out which one. <br />

  • Certain Icons not showing, tried "Show All" to no avail

    Hey experts,
    I have an odd problem that I'm stumped by. I have a number of icons/programs on my Torch that are not showing up for some reason. Now of course I've tried selecting "Show All" from the BlackBerry menu, yet none of the missing programs show up.
    It first started a few months ago, where my Twitter app stopped showing up (even though in BlackBerry App World it showed as installed, yet was no where to be found). I managed a work-around, by using UberSocial, so I didn't bother looking into it. Then I tried downloading Hoot Suite, with again the same problem; App World said it was installed, but the actual program was no where. Now I just had a third program do the same thing, but this one's more important. The actual app for BlackBerry App World is now not showing up; so not only can't I use its barcode reader, but I obviously can't download any programs, or update any.
    It's extremely frustrating, does anyone know what might be going on?

    Hi GottaBeKD182,
    Welcome to the Support Community!
    This KB article should help you out with the missing BlackBerry App World™ storefront icon. "BlackBerry App World icon is missing after upgrading to BlackBerry App World 4.0.0.63 to 4.0.0.65" http://bbry.lv/SPblgT
    Regarding the other icons that aren't displaying, are these applications listed as installed in Options > Device > Application Management? Was a reboot done after these applications were installed?
    Thanks.
