Flash CS3 not seeing the correct fonts

I'm not a Flash guy or a font guy, so bear with me on this
one!
My boss has CS3 Production Premium running on Mac OS X 10.5
(on a MacBook Pro) and manages fonts using Linotype FontExplorer X.
This works fine in every program except Flash: when he tries to
select a font, various fonts that are activated and working fine
elsewhere do not show up in the list. Additionally, fonts that he
hasn't activated and made available DO show up!
Any idea what the problem is?
Thanks.

After asking elsewhere, I fixed the problem so I'm reporting
back so that others might find this useful later.
To fix the problem:
1) Close Flash and all other CS3 apps
2) In FontExplorer, do Tools -> Clean Application Font
Caches -> Select “Adobe”
To avoid running into this issue in the future, always do the
following when working with FontExplorer and Flash:
1) Close Flash
2) Open LinoType FontExplorer
3) Activate fonts
4) Close LinoType FontExplorer
5) Restart Flash

Firefox is not displaying the correct font color on my blog, but other browsers are.

I have a web designer issue. Firefox is not displaying the correct font color on the header in my blog. Explorer, Chrome, and Safari have no problems. The page is in css but this particular section has html code o designate color. The code is as follows:
blog
Though all other browsers display the light orange color designated, Firefox displays white. Strangely, if if retype the code by spelling out a color, Firefox displays it correctly. i.e.
blog
... will give me black. You can see the effect by viewing the link below and looking at the word "blog" in the header, which should be light orange but is not in Firefox.

Actually it also seems to work in the current Firefox 4 beta as it is.
The code is not right though - the correct syntax for the color attribute with hex values is with a # at the start, so:
color="#FF9966"
It might work in Firefox 3.x if you change that.

Muse is not exporting the correct fonts.

I was just about to update my website when I did a browser preview and noticed that two sections are not exporting the correct fonts. The font is not only wrong, but the size is dramatically increased - so much so that it is breaking the design (things that should be one line are now two) so much that I can not update the website until this issue is fixed. The one thing I know is related is that the error is only happening in three boxes that I recently worked with and did change the fonts (all of them typefi fonts) in design mode to look at the differences, but in the end I did not keep any of the changes. I checked and it's the same problem in both Firefox and Chrome. But, it is showing the correct fonts in Muse's preview window. Does anyone have an idea what's going on?

You are not the only one having this problem i have a problem now with my system fonts only showing some of the families in that font
atm i can't find my helvetica font in muse but i can see it fine in photoshop, indesign, and illustrator.
its kinda pissing me off cause there is so many bugs atm with muse and fonts. and all we get each time is small ways to get it to work. then a new update comes up for muse and ruins it all again…
they really need to fix this.

Why I can't see the correct fonts (types) in my Itunes?

I can't see the text in iTunes.
Please, look left od the window....

Is your system 64bit? That's part of the minimum requirements for Premiere Pro, and the program is not even shown if your system doesn't meet this requirement.

In Mac OS X Mail some emails are not displaying the correct font size.

I have set my Mail to display email messages (Inbox) to Courier 13 point (easy to read) and most messages are displayed that way, however I often get emails that are displayed in unreadably small and often colored type. I don't understand why this is ... could someone explain how to fix this? Thanx.

The email was probably sent from Outlook as RTF or HTML. You can tell Mail to display those as plain text as well by opening Terminal and typing this command (quit Mail first):
defaults write com.apple.mail PreferPlainText -bool TRUE

I miss not having the same fonts as cs3 ie Bradshaw, Lucinda and papyrus. How can I access these.

I miss not having the same fonts as cs3 ie Bradshaw Handwriting, Lucinda and Papyrus. How can I access these on cs5? I have not found the fonts for this program to my liking.

I can't find any reference to a handwriting font named Bradshaw anywhere. Are you sure you have the name right? ITC Bradley Hand Regular, along with Papyrus and the Lucida (no "n") family are all included with recent versions of Windows, though, and should be in your font list in CS5 if you are, in fact, running Windows.
Is this the same machine that has CS3 installed? Did you remove CS3? Do the fonts show up in any other programs? Indesign can see fonts that are installed in the system fonts, the Common Files > Adobe > Fonts folder, and the private fonts folder for InDesign in the application folder. If the fonts show in CS3, but not elsewhere, they are probably in the CS3 InDesign Fonts folder.

I do not have the correct version of the flash player, but when I follow the steps to download it, it still doesn't work in Firefox. (It does work in Internet Explorer)

Every time I click on a video icon, the response I get is that I cannot play the clip because I do not have the correct flashplayer. However, when I click to download it, nothing changes. I even tried disabling my security setting but it still did not work. Unfortunately, the troubleshooting help was too complicated for me to figure out. Is there something basic I can do to make firefox work? It does work on Internet explorer, so obviously the correct program is in my computer - it just won't work on firefox.

IE uses a different version of Flash than other browsers use.
1.Download the Flash setup file from here: 
[http://fpdownload.adobe.com/get/flashplayer/current/install_flash_player.exe Adobe Flash - Plugin version]. 
Save it to your Desktop. 
2. Close Firefox using File > Exit 
then check the Task Manager > Processes tab to make sure '''firefox.exe''' is closed, 
{XP: Ctrl+Alt+Del = Processes tab}
3. Then run the Flash setup file from your Desktop.

I just installed Illustrator, and do not see the font samples in menu box. They show up in InDesign though..

I just installed Illustrator, and do not see the font samples in menu box. Can you tell me how to get them to show?
Thank you.

Sue,
I believe this may solve it:
Open System Preferences and go to Accessibility. Next, select Display from the source list along the left, then check the box labelled Reduce transparency.

I believe I am having the same issue. Here is a screenshot of what my font list looks like. When highlighting over the fonts the names will show. Any solutions would be greatly appreciated.

Why do Yahoo Flash videos not always run correctly in Chrome and Firefox/Windows 8?

I upgraded early last month to Windows 8 Pro.
Running Yahoo! News and other videos (Yahoo! Screen, etc.; virtually all Yahoo branded products) I get a black screen, no error message on Chrome and Firefox. The videos run correctly on Internet Explorer.
I have not found a way to run these videos at all in Firefox or the 64-bit Waterfox.
In Chrome, I can DISABLE the internal Pepper-based Flash player and the videos will run (but nothing ELSE will: no YouTube, etc.)
I can keep a plug-ins page open in Chrome and repeatedly enable and disable the internal Flash player; I can copy and paste the URL for what I'm watching back into IE...or perhaps some kind and knowing person here will have a better idea. For me, I sense a bug somewhere. BTW...this machine dual-boots Win8 and WIn7. The problem does not exist in Win7. Please don't suggest going back to Win7; that's a VERY mature (translate SLOW and quirky; survived repeated change of motherboard and other major components) install that I'm continually weaning myself away from and rarely boot into it anymore (Win8 boots from SSD and is blazingly fast, Win7 not so much).
I have not found any site other than the ENTIRE Yahoo site that has this problem!
Jay from the Bronx

I'm back! Actually, this issue has been happening to me every now & then but I'd just given up on dealing with it. But now I'm motivated again.
I clicked on a video link in Facebook that sent me to NASCAR | Facebook which turns from the https URL to those two words on this site for some odd reason, and it just popped a box telling me saying Flash Player Upgrade Required - Get Flash Player and the video's image never displayed under that and it couldn't be played.
Then once again I went thru all of the steps to insure that both I do actually have Flash Player and that it is Enabled. I do and it is. I also read somewhere to click the gear icon in IE then click Safety > ActiveX Filtering. I do that and I see a checkmark next to ActiveX Filtering. I've tried it both with a checkmark and without one and there's no difference.
I have Windows 8.1 fully updated, IE-11 and Flash Player
I see the swinging tire swing image in #5. Verify if Flash Player is installed at Flash Player Help.

ITC - Build 1.x.x does not contain the correct beta entitlement.

Hi,
I have a major problem when uploading Builds via the Application Loader (2.9.1) to iTC.
- I use Flash CC 2014 to create my iOS Apps.
- I recreated my certificates, p12 and mobile provisioning profiles.
- I can Upload my Builds via Application Loader without any error messages. Everything is fine here!
- Then in iTC it takes several minutes (5-45) until the Apps Appear.
- I am able to "Add a Build" in the first "Versions" Menu!
BUT in "Prerelease" it looks like this:
... all Builds are marked as "Invalid Binary"
Message: "Build 1.2.2 does not contain the correct beta entitlement. For more information, see the iTunes Connect Developer Guide."
Even though all Builds are marked as "Invalid" they can be selected and I can submit them for review.
... the sad thing is - another App with the same Status "Invalid Binary" is waiting for review for almost 2 weeks now and nothing happens.
Can anyone please tell me what I have to do? It seems Apple does not review Apps with this Status . Normally I get an email from iTUnes connect saying something like:
"Dear developer,
We have discovered one or more issues with your recent delivery for "XYZ". To process your delivery, the following issues must be corrected:
... but this time - NOTHING! :-(
Please help!
Thanks

My storage is not showing the correct space

Hi,
Why my storage is not showing the correct amount of space? I have MBA mid 2013 with 121gb. However my storage show a different value than its suppose to be especially on the apps. I google the problem, mostly its because of the time machine but I never use the time machine. and some of my friend tells its probably a junk. is the third party apps like apps cleaner and clean my mac is helpful? I attached the screen capture of my storage. As you can see the value of apps is 162gb in fact my flash is only 121gb. its doesn't make any sense. Please help.

Do not use third party apps such as CleanMyMac on your Mac. They have no effect what so ever on storage space. Your Mac runs maintenance in the background for you > Mac OS X: About background maintenance tasks
Reindex Spotlight then check the storage > Spotlight: How to re-index folders or volumes

While editing a scanned pdf, Acrobat will not recognize the current font & change to very different font. How can I choose the font I want to match the current document?

While editing a scanned pdf, Acrobat will not recognize the current font & change to very different font. How can I choose the font I want to match the current document?

Thanks for answering. The version is XI.0.10. I just did the update yesterday hoping that I could now properly edit a scanned pdf document. Yes, it's happening on most all scanned documents. I followed your steps & found the list of fonts used in the document & then attempted to edit. The same occurs. When I type in a correction, I get an error alert... "the original font (in this case Fd 5805) is not available or can't be used in editing. Acrobat is using the font Minion Pro in its place."
When I select the text & right click as you suggested, my only choices are cut, copy, delete or select all, no "edit text".
I have no other options to choose another font. Thanks for any help you can direct my way.

I have Windows 7 and for some reason I cannot install Adobe Type Manager onto my Computer. I need ATM to install the DIN font but am having no luck what so ever. I can see the DIN font in my Dropbox but it is showing up like this:- ._DIN-bold, no file file extension. what am I doing wrong? is it Mac?

(1)    Adobe Type Manager (ATM) is not compatible with any version of Windows beyond Windows XP (32-bit, only). Attempting to install ATM on any newer version of Windows may actually disable Window's capability of rendering Type 1 and OpenType CFF fonts, requiring a reinstallation of Windows.
(2)    There is no need to use ATM to install any fonts under Windows.
(3)    The file name ._DIN-bold is indicative of a MacOS font. These fonts cannot be installed on Windows systems.
