Conflict with font management program

Hello,
When I open Dreamweaver I get an endless stream of messages saying that there is a problem with the fonts. They keep on coming and I have to force quit Dreamweaver, turn of Extensis, and then start up Dreamweaver again. Please see the attached screen shot.
My system is Mac OS 10.4.11, and for the past 4 years I've been using Extensis Suitcase to manage my fonts.
Is there a way to avoid this conflict? Maybe it's a matter of setting a preference somewhere? And is there a better font management program? I'd like to avoid shelling out more $$$ on new software, if possible.
Thanks for the help!

Here's a thread that might help:

Creative Suite CS4: Problems with font managing software

It seems that there are some issues of the applications of the creative suite CS4 with the font managing software MainType (http://www.high-logic.com/maintype.html).
With standard settings, CS4 no longer recognizes PostScript Type 1 Fonts loaded by MainType (which did not occur with CS3 and older versions). The only solution so far is this workaround: Within MainType enable under "Tools -> Options" the option "Copy Type 1 Postscript fonts to Windows fonts folder" and CS4 will load these fonts again.
This seems to be a bug of CS4. Are there problems with other font managing programs?
regards
fabian

After reading tons of forums about this issue, it does seem to be an issue with CS4 not recognizing fonts the way that CS3 did. Wish they had mentioned that little feature when they released it. They even go as far as to say they do not support certain programs for type handling in Windows. Copying them to the system folder is a workaround, but it is not available easily in programs like Extensis' Suitcase, which is long overdue an upgrade. LinoType beta tested a new application for Windows, but when I sent an email to them asking about the release date for the their final version, their ignorant customer support sent me a link to their website pointing out that it is not yet available, and not answering my initial question of when.
I don't entirely blame Adobe, it seems as though a lot of companies have dropped the ball on this issue, and since many people have Type 1 fonts they've been using for years, they will have to repurchase (if available) those fonts in the newer OTF format which everyone seems to support. OTF is a much nicer format and more portable cross-platform, but it's simply inconvenient to not be able to use all of your fonts at your own discretion easily. I'm not sure what the big deal was with not including support for Type 1 fonts, unless that's most of the reason that the Adobe apps were crashing before... corrupt versions of the fonts they talked us into purchasing, etc... Adobe used to make ATM for managing postscript fonts, but it doesn't work on Vista to my knowledge. It would be nice if they would recommend a font manager other than the Windows system folder.
I figure Adobe was hoping that it would not be a major issue since their wonderful PDF format has taken hold for printing. Print shops do not have to install fonts before printing a piece anymore. Most people will read in these forums about the loss of support, throw up their hands and shake their heads, but do nothing about it. After all they too probably purchased the CS4 suite without knowing about this issue and have already spent their money. It doesn't look as though it's an issue on the Mac, but by the time you throw $3000 at an entry level Mac workstation and $1600 at the basic adobe apps, that's not a solution either. Especially when you have to go out and buy all new fonts anyhow, since the macs will not support the Windows postscript typeface formats either.
After doing a little price shopping for typefaces, I'm trying to try to keep using the few OTF and TTF fonts I've purchased since they're still working, since the prices of fonts these days are astronomical. I've installed a few fonts in the system folder, but too many and Acrobat distiller crashes. It's not cost effective to spend all of your income from design on $1600 font family sets, just to make changes to a document where you might have used a postscript face. Especially in this economy... It's another case of the investor getting rewarded for the release of an application and the customer is left holding the bag. Hopefully it's a bug, but not likely. It's probably some mandated decision by the higher ups in Adobe.
I'm sure larger companies with hundreds of employees probably have site licenses for typefaces in the OTF format, so for them it's not a problem, and since most people using PCs to do design opted for that platform because of the cost issue, Adobe probably doesn't care about them either. Maybe a solution will arise in the future, but it doesn't look likely. You will probably have to get the new formats of typefaces one by one.

Photoshop CS 6 repeatedly launching, conflict with Application Manager

I am now getting multiple systems that will not open Photoshop CS 6. As soon as PS starts to open, Application Manager starts and prevents PS from opening. The two applications alternate for control with neither being able to open. This problem is also occurring with Illustrator CS 6 and now has started in Photoshop.
When the "fight" starts you have to do a forced shut down (power button for 10 seconds) in order to be able to login. Then Uninstalling the application, either by the Uninstaller of PS or by using the ELA uninstaller created when the Install package is created. Systems are Apple 10.8.2 with Adobe Application Manager Enterprise Created installer for Master Suite.
This has now appeared on six or seven systems of the approximatly 200 that got the install. The applications ran normally with no problems for about two weeks bu now the problems are popping up for no appearent reason.

Thank you for the video. It is exactly what has been reported by me and some others in the Illustrator forum also. To me a "crash" is when a program fails to open properly and requires a forced power off to recover the computer. I will add that the same problem as shown will appear again as soon as Photoshop (or Illustrator if that is the broken program) is reopened. The problem will remain until PS (or AI) is uninstalled and reinstalled. The version I have for the installer is the older 13.1 but that had worked for several weeks and this problem just started recently and I had not installed (at least knowingly) any changed software be it PS, AI or AAM. prior to that time. I did have some systems at the latest update and at least one of those failed also.
I have tried creating an Update package from AAMEE but the package that is created does not install using Apple Remote Desktop nor does it install if the created package is copied to the desktop of the system I am trying to update.
It is looking to me like the problem is located in the Adobe Application Manager since that app is common to both Photoshop and Illustrator. I have tried using the AAM that installs as part of the Master Suite and the first thing it does is update itself. My guess is that this "update" that AAM self-installs is broken and is causing the problem. That is only my guess based on my observations. Perhaps someone can come up with a way to prove or disprove my guess.
My next project for tomorrow will be to try to create a brand new installer with all updates since trying to individually use the Update button in the actual Photoshop does work but I'll be damned if I am going to visit two hundred seperate machines to have to install the update on each and every system as a stand alone update, especially since I have already had at least one system that I know was on the latest update but still failed in exactly the way your video shows.
A follow up will be to try to remove the AAM and reinstall a new version from the Adobe web site just to see if that helps, hurts or has no discernable effect.

WLC IP Conflict with AP-Manager Interface

I am getting an error log in the WLC saying, its IP address is being used by another machine with MAC address A.B.C.D
But this MAC address A.B.C.D is the MAC address of the AP-Manager Interface in the same controller.
have anyone faced an issue like this ?
The same issue is having in another controller also. But I have two more controllers with the same IOS , which are working fine.

Hey Scott...
Thanks for ua quick response.
We have controller 4402.
We have all the two ports connected to core. But we have enabled LAG as well.
It was working perfect since almost an year and half. Recently we had an image upgradation to 6.0.182.0.
Upgradation was done for all the 5 controllers. But two are having this error log since then.
Its not continously coming.. Only sometimes..

Recent Fingerprint Reader update conflicts with Password Manager

Hi,
After udating my Fingerprint Reader software to the most recent 64-bit 5.9.6.7084 version, my Password Manager (ver 3.20.0333.00) can no longer find the device. Am I the only one having this problem?
Solved!
Go to Solution.

You are using the older Password Manager that's bundled with Client Security Solution. And you need to update it to use the latest fingerprint software.

If you don't need the complexity of Client Security Solution, then another option is to start using the new stand-alone Password Manager 4.0

How to Resolve Bitnami/MAMP Conflict with Profile Manager

I've been working on a new Lion Server for several weeks, and most of my services work great. However, I want to set up several development environments for WP, Drupal, and Magento, among other things. I prefer to use something like MAMP Pro or, in this case, Bitnami stacks for my various environments. However, this machine currently is used for managing Wiki, Profile Manager, and Device Manager, among other things. Of course, if you activate the Bitnami MAMPstack, that poses an issue for Profile Manager, as both use the 80 and 443 ports, I presume. So, the question is how can I configure Lion Server to run Bitnami (or MAMP Pro, as an alternate possibility) and not break Profile Manager, Wiki, Device Manager, etc.?

Let me edit the statement a bit. Device Manager is the term that I intuitively have attached to the link https://server/mydevices, which is nothing more than a web interface for adding profiles to your Mac and iOS devices. Apple doesn't call it that, but I have taken to doing so, so when I'm referring to it, that's what it is.
Anyway, I haven't tried Wiki on its own, but I know that if I activate MAMP, or BitNami, and I run Profile Manager, it is inaccessible. Obviously, there is a conf setup, or something I am missing here, but I'm not finding it in the server documentation, if it exists at all.

Distiller Error / Conflict with MainType

Hello!
I am getting an error window from Acrobat Distiller while using a font management program called MainType (www.High-Logic.com)
I have attached a screen shot.
Before the error window pops up, everything slows down to a crawl. It's just really annoying to have the error message pop up about every 5 minutes or so. Is there a way to turn off or disable Distiller while I'm using MainType? If not, is there a setting I can change to fix this?

Hi Dilek,
Thank you very much for the reply.
I went to the path which you mentioned upto below.
Personnel Management - EMployee self-service - Service-Specific Settings - Working time - Leave Request - Processing Processes - Configure output of messages -
We did nt maintain any rule group for customizing tab.Sap standard is showing as rule group.No details has been maintained.
Alot of employees are having substitutions,most of the approvers are able to approve leaves of the employees who are having substitutions.This is a peculiar case,where the approver is getting an error with conflict with substitutions.
In R/3 we are getting a warning message and able to save the leave for this employee.
Even i tried with other employees who are having the substitutions,system is behaving the same.
Please advice me to resolve the problem.

Best font management solution for CS6/InDesign?

I recently upgraded to CS6. (OS 10.6.8). I'm finding that InDesign is extremely slow and wondering if it might have to do with font management. I have a LOT of fonts on my machine. I was using Suitcase previously. Do I need to continue with that? I'd appreciate any advice about best practices for organizing fonts and/or suggestions for font management software.

Must say its Font Explorer Pro (FEP) for me! (MacPro OSX 10.6.8 Indesign Creative Suite 4, Indesign 5.5)
When I first started this job they had suitcase and I found that program really limiting. But I also had never used it before and knew very little about it.
FEP has many things that I like about it.
1. Although most people lean away from font auto activation the one that comes with FEP has been working real smooth, a few second delay when opening files while it starts what font is required.
2. Font Preview is amazing, select the fonts you want to compare with a typeface you have and you have transparent view and slide show.
3. Font Groups: Where you can put all fonts for particular jobs into smart sets.
4. Search files and discover which fonts where used inside that file and save that as a font set
5. There is also a server version of the program.
6. Application Sets: Really handy for auto activating fonts used only in certain programs.
7. Good Conflict control.
The list could possibly go on and on, in other words, love FEP and highly recommend it.

Font Management Guidance

Just installed CS4 for Windows. Currently using Extensis Suitcase for Windows (v11x). I don't believe that the "auto activation" feature works with CS4. What type of font management program that incorporates that type of feature would you folks recommend?
Thanks in advance...
~Vince

I would recommend you stay clear of any auto-activation in Windows. We see a lot of reported porblems here that are solved by turning it off. I've been running without a font manager (still looking for one I like) since upgrading to XP when CCS3 was released, and I don't miss it that much anymore.

What's the best font management system?

I am running Indesign CC on Imac with OSX 10.9.2 with Suitcase Fusion 5. We have several thousand fonts (which are all legal) but a lot are not working for one reason or another (probably old/corrupt) I am in the process of purchasing the newest Adobe master font set and was wondering what in your opinion is the best Font management program as I am questioning Fusion!
Thanks guys (new to the forum so please be gentle)
Orca

If you upgraded to Snow Leopard, then it would seem that Suitcase 11 is not compatible with Snow Leopard and you'd need to buy Suitcase Fusion 3 for $99.95.

Typekit and Font Management : Still a bit confused

I am still a little confused as to how the new Creative Cloud TypeKit works and how it will or will not effect our workflow.
We currently use Extensis Universal Type Server (UTS). We have a team membership license for Creative Cloud. Does TypeKit interject itself before fonts are loaded from UTS?
If fonts are downloaded to the desktop from TypeKit do I need to copy these into UTS? Should my users mix and match fonts acquired with UTS and TypeKit or maintain the status with UTS? Can you disable TypeKit if this is the case? How can we resolve conflicts with fonts if UTS and TypeKit are running?
Do we need to purchase fonts now that with TypeKit the claim is all fonts from Adobe are free with CC membership? How does this interact with UTS?
Does Adobe still sell fonts if TypeKit being part of the CC subscription implies the complete catalog is free?
How are font licensing issues handled with TypeKit? In the past, font licensing was a big concern in publishing and still very confusing as to use and purchasing.
I have been trying to get a firm understanding of the use and rights of fonts throughout my career and with TypeKit it puts many of my past understandings into perplexity.
Thank you for any answers towards my questions.

I received an email response from and Adobe Rep:
Let me see if I can clear things up here:
> 1. We currently use Extensis Universal Type Server (UTS). We have a team membership license for Creative Cloud. Does TypeKit interject itself before fonts are loaded from UTS?
A: Unfortunately, I don't have the details here. However, Extensis announced that Typekit can work along side UTS: http://blog.extensis.com/font-management/universal-type-server-now-supports-use-typekit-de sktop-fonts.php
Typekit doesn't install the fonts the same way you would install a perpetual license. I hope that article helps clarify specific questions.
> 2. If fonts are downloaded to the desktop from TypeKit do I need to copy these into UTS? Should my users mix and match fonts acquired with UTS andTypeKit or maintain the status with UTS? Can you disable TypeKit if this is the case? How can we resolve conflicts with fonts if UTS and TypeKit are running?
A: UTS and Typekit should be able to work at the same time. However, you won't be able to add Typekit fonts to UTS. Each CC Team user would need to sync the fonts from Typekit that they wish to use.
> 3. Do we need to purchase fonts now that with TypeKit the claim is all fonts from Adobe are free with CC membership? How does this interact with UTS?
A: If the font you need is in Typekit and you have a Portfolio Plan (through Creative Cloud Teams or otherwise) you get access to that font. So, you can sync it from Typekit and use it in desktop apps. If a font isn't available on Typekit, you would need to purchase a perpetual license for the team and add it to UTS like you have with other fonts.
> 4. Does Adobe still sell fonts if TypeKit being part of the CC subscription implies the complete catalog is free?
A: Currently, you can still purchase perpetual licenses to Adobe owned fonts as well as some other fonts that they resell. However, the Adobe owned fonts and many other commercial fonts are available with a Typekit subscription. Access to Typekit isn't really free. You're paying for it when you pay for Creative Cloud. It's just that Typekit doesn't cost you anything extra since it's included.
> 5. How are font licensing issues handled with TypeKit? In the past, font licensing was a big concern in publishing and still very confusing as to use and purchasing.
A: This article is a good place to start: http://help.typekit.com/customer/portal/articles/1341590-typekit-font-licensing
If you have specific questions about licensing or use cases, feel free to ask.I hope this helps. Let me know if you have any further questions.
Cheers,
Benjamin

Type conflict with ASSIGN in BADI for Virtual Key Figures

We get the below error dump in ST22 when executing BEx queries that contain virtual key figures.
error message - 'Type conflict with ASSIGN in
program "ZCL_IM_THR_RSR_OLAP_BADI======CP".'
We have a BADI implementation that calculates few virtual key figures included in some infocubes & multiproviders. The error would arise if we execute two queries (containing common Virtual Key figures) one after the other without closing the first query.
We found a note "Note 1237689 - Virtual chars. and key figures in input-ready querys" that could be relevant to our issue and wanted to apply this note but unfortunately the note is only applicable to SAPKW70016 to SAPKW70018 and we are support pack 15.
Can you please advise what the problem could be/suggest corrections for the same.

Hi Kulmohan,
Did you fix your issue? We are facing the same issue. Could you please let me know if you have any solution for this issue,
Thank you,
Mike

Font Management Software Switch

I recently ran into a font problem after installing Adobe Photoshop upgrade 12.0.4.
The process of reconciling this required that I uninstall my old copy of FontExplorer X, organizing my 4,500 fonts into a single and the proper location, and then validating all of those fonts in Font Book, as well as a type test script from Adobe.
Long story short, I now have thousands of fonts enabled and loading into my applications, and need to upgrade to either Font Explorer Pro of Suitcase Fusion. I should have done this in the first place and saved myself a lot of time, as I suspect that the absence of a working plugin for Photoshop CS5 upgrade was what done me in. But, back to our story.
My question is, once I've installed the new font managment application, how do I disable Font Book? Do I "simply" disable all but the system fonts?

Not sure it'll help, but start with Font Management in OS X.
