Font Book Crashes - Console Message
I am having a problem with font book. It keeps crashing when I open it or freezes. Here is the report from Console. Does anyone know how to fix this. I don't have a font called "My-type-of-font".

As I'm attempting to add some new fonts, Font Book crashes whether I add one font or a dozen. I'm not installing them, but just want them handy in the event I want to use them. Is there a limit on the number of fonts this app can handle?
Also, do you recommend any other font management software? This is the first time I've had this issue with Font Book and I'm perplexed.
TIA
RuthHere's a sampling of the fonts:
KuriakosSSK BoldItalic.ttf
KuriakosBlackSSK Bold.ttf
KoreanTimesSSK.ttf
Koksure.ttf

They were a download from a trusted source. In this particular download, I was able to add some to Font Book, but then I started having crashes. Before adding to Font Book I verified and deleted fonts that were suspect. I haven't been adding them to the main library, but making a new library that I can access if and when I want. Does this answer your question or do you need more information?
The Help section of Font Book doesn't have a lot of help for a situation like this.
I'm planning on looking at the software you suggest, but was away a good share of the day so I'm finally getting around to answering your question.

Font Book crashes when trying to remove corrupt fonts
I have recently upgraded to Snow Leopard and am having problems with my fonts.
After installing some of my previously used fonts, some of them didn't pass validation. I don't mind removing them - I barely use 1% of the fonts I have, but when I run Font Validation in Font Book and then select all the corrupt files and click "Remove" - Font Book just gets stuck.
Then I went by the list and removed MANUALLY all the invalid font files (the ones with the red cross sign).
Then only the minor warnings remained , but even when I try to remove them with Font Book - it still crashes.
It's ridiculous to remove them manually one by one, cause I have a huge collection of 1000s of fonts and there are more than 500 corrupt fonts there. I'm not using many fonts, but I want to keep my library up and working, so I want to get rid of everything that might cause problems...
Any help?Hi Kurt
Sorry, was busy, didn't answer for some time. Thanks - it helped me to run Font Book again and install new fonts, but Font Book is still causing me a lot of trouble - never had so much in Leopard - I'm frustrated, maybe you can help on those:
After completely wiping clean all my fonts databases and folders etc. I've started loading back my Font libraries into Font Book. I don't copy fonts to any new folder, I just activate them from wherever they are without copying. First thing I noticed, is the amount of "corrupt" fonts has increased enormously - I have a couple of folders with alsmot all 400-500 fonts corrupt (yellow sign) with this error message: 'kern' table structure and contents. All of them with the same Error message.
The next thing that happened, is that at some point Font Book has just deleted my new font libraries again without any notice. Then I installed them back again. It deleted them again (I think after a restart).
Another bug is that Font Book always activates all the new fonts upon loading them, although I clearly runed off "Automatic fonts activation" in the Preferences. So every time I load a library I manually disable all of the fonts, and then enable only the ones I use.
BUT! What happens next, is completely outrageous - when I launched FB next time, all my new font libraries where activated again! jezus - I had to go and disable them all and again activate the ones I need. This repeated several times, until I decided to delete the fontbook.plist prefs file from Preferences. I think it helped for now, but I'm not sure yet - will wait and see.
Also there is a bug in FB, that when I install a new library, it always jumps my cursor into renaming the name of this library, and doesn't let me navigate the fonts with keyboard, unless I restart. This is an obvious bug.
And the last thing that happened is that I cannot type my Baltic languages fonts anymore - the input of the keyboard is completely wrong. Those are TrueType fonts, and most of them worked perfectly in Leopard with InDesign. Now when I type the baltic letters in InDesign I see squares. But when I open Glyphs - I see all those letters and need to put them in manually from Glyphs panel. This is totally frustrating and I cannot work. But I will make a separate post about this issue.
Thanks in advance for help... -
Whenever I open Font Book, it crashes immediately. Deleted preferences, fb.db, logged in in Safe Mode, repaired disk permissions. Doesn't work. Appreciate any help.
Since you've already tried trashing the database file, then it's got to be a corrupt font, which will cause the database to be damaged each time it's added to the list.
Create a new folder on the desktop. Move all of your fonts out of the /Library/Fonts/ folder and the Fonts folder of your user account into the new folder. Dump Font Book's database file again. Also clear out the font cache files after moving the fonts. Font Finagler can do that.
After the Mac restarts (Font Finagler will force a restart), try Font Book again. It should open. -
Font book crashes on launch, can't use MS Office
Hi there,
I have a problem which started with MS office not opening. As soon as I tried to open a Word document, it would close saying that it has encountered a problem and needs to close. After a spot of googling I discovered that this might be a problem with a corrupted font, and sure enough fontbook wont open either!
When I try to open fontbook, it says that it has closed unexpectedly. Unfortunately, all this happened the day before I was due to hand in a 6,000 word project for my MSc which I could suddenly not access to print off... needless to say that after 4 years of trouble-free (ish) Mac ownership I was more than slightly hacked off.
Anyway I decided to create a new user account to test if the problem happened in there as well, and luckily everything was fine and I was able to print the document, but font book and Office still wont open in my regular user account.
Can anyone help?
Thanks in advanceDoes Font Book still not open? If so, then you probably have some damaged fonts. Though it could also be an OS problem. But it's easier to start with the fonts, so try this.
At the bottom of my article, Font Management in OS X, you'll find instructions to reinstall all of the fonts that come with OS X.
Close all Office applications. Remove the following files. The tilde (~) indicates your home account.
~/Library/Caches/com.microsoft.browserfont.cache
~/Library/Preferences/Microsoft/Office Font Cache (11)
Go to the /Applications/Microsoft Office 2004/Office/Fonts/ folder. Copy all of the fonts in that folder to the /Library/Fonts/ folder, overwriting all of the existing fonts of the same name. The ones you want to replace may also be in your user account at ~/Library/Fonts/. You'll just have to look first.
If after that you still have problems, then it's more likely a problem with Office itself, or the OS.

HELP!!! Font Book crashed my OS, I only get my desktop image on startup
I was importing a large folder of fonts into Font Book, which apparently couldn't handle it and froze, I force-powered it down and now anytime I start up, I get my desktop image and my cursor moves but I get no menu options or anything but a search icon (magnifying glass) over a tiny portion of what would be the top menu bar. When I roll over this I get the spinning color wheel. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Powerbook G4 Mac OS X (10.4.8) Font Book importing large font libraryRestart and hold down the shift key. This starts in safe mode. rebuild permissions and try restart again. It might take a few minutes to start in safe mode. If this works fine but dont use font book. I'll tell you another way to deal with fonts.

A font that I've used successfully on my G5 in 10.4 will not load on my new iMac in 10.6.2. If I double-click on the suitcase file Font Book crashes. I've downloaded Font Doctor and it crashes when I try to do a diagnosis. If I try to "Get Info" I get a spinning beach ball for a few seconds and then screen refreshes and I don't get the Info pane. The font is obviously incompatible with Snow Leopard.
Can anyone recommend a repair utility that might correct this?
Any help would be greatly appreciated, especially since we paid almost $1,500 for the whole font family. I bought it from Font Bureau and they refuse to respond to requests for help... great (expletive deleted) customer service.
WoodyCorrect me if I'm wrong but I seem to recall that the main reason we were steered away from Type-1 was the fight that Apple and Adobe had over the licensing of Postscript, including Display Postscript. The result of that fight was True-Type... the first bucket of mud thrown into otherwise clear waters.
Since 1987 I've been accumulating Type-1 fonts from numerous sources, penned several myself with Fontographer and worked for two major newspapers that were Mac based and running Type-1 fonts. All that time I/we never had a problem with any of them until I switched to Snow Leopard. When you stop to think of the millions of Type-1 fonts that have been in use all those years it's hard for me to accept that Apple (and the rest of the industry) wouldn't find a way to support them.
Think about it... what is a font supposed to do? Render accurately on screen and output... period. Failure to support Type-1 smacks of arrogance uncharacteristic of Apple. What are we supposed to do, buy new fonts? It would cost me $50,000 to $100,000 to replace my "obsolete" Type-1 font library. Yea, like that's ever going to happen.
I know there are limitations to Type-1 but how do these limitations affect the end user? Of all the people typing on computer keyboards today what percentage of them even need one ligature or any of the so-called improvements over Type-1... 1%, 2%? Perhaps I just don't get it, but I'm open minded and willing to learn so if someone can explain (in plain English) what makes Type-1 obsolete I'm all ears.

Hi, I have recently done and clean reinstall and it has resolved many of my issues. However, I just got this message in my conole. Can anyone tell me what to do? Also, before that I was getting messages about not being able to show some fonts. So I went to Font Book and pushed the button to resolve duplicate font issues. However, then I could not even pull up some things at all. So now, I have all the fonts back on. I got cocktail and did all the tasks. but this was left after those tasks were ran. Thanks in advance for your help.

The fontd process crashes every time I launch Font Book
Crash report is below. Looks like it's the com.apple.xtype.FontRegistry thread that's crashing. I found a similar problem talked about for 10.5 that suggested installing the latest COMBO update. How do you guys suggest I try to fix this with Lion? Does this require that I reinstall my OS?
Any suggestions or help would be greatly appreciated...

TOTAL, minus reserved VM space 315.1MThe FontRegistry database is used by Font Book. It's probably corrupt. fontd's main purpose is to run when fonts are being activated, or deactivated. It appears to be crashing due to being unable to access the database.
To clear Font Book's database:
1) Restart your Mac and immediately hold down the Shift key when you hear the startup chime to boot into Safe Mode. Keep holding the Shift key until OS X asks you to log in (you will get this screen on a Safe Mode boot even if your Mac is set to automatically log in). Let the Mac finish booting to the desktop and then restart normally. This will clear Font Book's database and the cache files for the user account you logged into in Safe Mode. In Leopard or earlier, any font sets you have created will be gone. Also, all fonts in the three main Fonts folders (System, Library, your user account) will now be active, regardless of their state beforehand.
2) Clear all font cache files from the system and restart.
Close all running applications. From an administrator account, open the Terminal app and enter the following command (or copy/paste it from here):
sudo atsutil databases -remove
This removes all font cache files. Both for the system and all user font cache files. After running the command, close Terminal and immediately restart your Mac.
The next time you launch Font Book, it will create a new database. -
Font Book reporting 0 fonts and crashing
Hi,
I see that Font Book has been mentioned as having some problems before, but no definitive answers were given.
My MacBook crashed hard last night (for the first time), and when I restarted, some of my fonts weren't appearing, notably Chinese fonts and (I think) Helvetica.
Going into Font Book (which was the first application that showed up typing "font" in Spotlight) showed no fonts of any kind. When I tried to add all the fonts already in /System/Library/Fonts and a few other locations, it reported that some fonts had caused "System Validation" (completely unexplained) problems and should not be installed - these are "Helvetica LT MM" and "Times LT MM". It also popped up alert boxes for a series of fonts (Geneva.dfont, Keyboard.dfont, etc.) that caused conflicts with system fonts and should be removed or something.
After that, Chinese fonts work on the system, but Font Book still reports that I have no fonts at all.
When I reboot, my fonts are gone again. This is VERY tedious.
Also, if I log into another user account on the system (mine is an administrator account and the other account is not, I don't know if this bears any significance), fonts act normally without any configuration needed, and Font Book seems to work fine as well - i.e. fonts are listed!
I tried deleting ~/Library/Application Support/Font Book/fb.db and ~/Library/Preferences/com.apple.FontBook.plist as well as overwriting both with the other user's versions, along with multiple reboots.
At this point I'd really appreciate any suggestions, because so far I was enjoying Leopard and this is spoiling it, on Christmas eve too :PFont Book's database may have gotten trashed. It could also be the font collection files. Try this:
1) Restart your Mac and immediately hold down the Shift key when you hear the startup chime to boot into Safe Mode. Keep holding the Shift key until you see a progress bar towards the bottom of the screen. You can let go of the Shift key at that point.
OS X asks you to log in (you will get this screen on a Safe Mode boot even if your Mac is set to automatically log in). Let the Mac finish booting to the desktop and then restart normally. This will clear Font Book's database and the cache files of the user account you logged into in Safe Mode.
If this doesn't do it, then proceed to the next possibility:
2) From the desktop, hold down the Option key and at the menu bar, choose Go > Library to open the Library folder within your user account. Go to the FontCollections folder and move all sets to the desktop. Try launching Font Book again. -
IDVD crashing. Strange system console message.

You console message has nothing to do with the iDVD program.
It simply means that the function CGSCreateDictionary will be different in future versions of OS X. In other words, it's only a message for the computer programmers the wrote iDVD and not anything to worry about.
What you need to do is run a disk repair and permissions repair and try again.

How can I get Font Book to install new fonts with Lion OS X without crashing?
Font Book is unresponsive using Lion 10.7.1. When I click on Font Book icon in the dock, I get "Application not Responding". Can't install any new fonts. Anyone else having this issue?
I can get to the open Font Book window if I click on Mission Control to get there, but once there I see spinning wheel, which does not stop.
Any suggestions on how to get Font Book to work well on Lion?Quick update... I removed all non System fonts from ~/Library/Fonts and deleted com.apple.fontbook.plist from ~/Library/Preferences.
Now FontBook doesn't crash when launched.
I think I'm going to use a 3rd party application to manage all non Apple/System fonts. Hopefully that will avoid any future problems. -
Font Book beach ball, crashing
I have about 2000 fonts I'm trying to sort with Font Book, and I'm encountering two really frustrating problems:
1) I'm getting beach balls on start up, and pretty much every other function I go to do. There's a lag time like the system is choking from a lack of memory - but my Macbook is maxed out with 4gb of ram.
2) If I add a duplicate font to a collection by accident, Font Book immediately quits. Obviously in the course of sorting fonts, it's hard remember exactly what you added, so doubling up, adding the same font is unavoidable.I am getting simular issues, FCPX works like a dream. Motion 5, not so much. It opens fine, but as soon as I start looking through the library at the content, the beach ball does it's thing.
I have an iMac, OS X (V10.6.8)
Processor: 3.06GHz MHz 2 Duo
Memory: 12 GB 1067 MHz DDR3
No matter what I do, the Beach ball spins forever, and then I get a message saying "That I have too many apps open and need to close some". But most of the time all I have open is Motion and Safari.
Or I get the "Motion is no longer responding" message.
And when I have Motion open, and not doing anything with it, my iMac slows down. Even using Sarfari is painful.
Anyone have any hit or tips for this problem?

Font Book hang, Pacifist, crash, now blue screen, no login...please help!
Hi everybody,
I have a friend's iBook G4 that had a problem with Font Book hanging, she had installed some fonts that caused this problem. I found support thread that suggested using Pacifist to re-install the fonts from the install dvd. This seemed to be working fine, but then Pacifist crashed in the middle of this process. Now when starting the iBook, the screen is blue and there is no login screen.
I have tried booting in Safe Mode but it has the same results. I have run Disk Repair and Repair Permissions from the install disc, but this hasn't changed anything.
Can someone here offer any suggestions as what my next move may be? I'm not opposed to reinstalling the OS, but will this mean that all her (paid for third party programs) will be lost?
Any help is GREATLY appreciated. I know I've gotten in over my head on this, but I'm trying to fix my stupid mistake;)Hi Adam,
You can use the Archive and Install feature to just reinstall the OS. All of her files and settings should be OK. Of course, there's never any guaranty with computers.

Font Book locks up/crashes after deleting 3 fonts?! Weird! But consistant!
I have a lot of fonts so I understand that sometimes Font Book and programs that use fonts might run a tad bit slow at times. However, lately, going through my fonts and deleting what I don't need has given birth to the weirdest thing ever. While deleting fonts, after deleting three fonts, Font Book hangs and does not respond. I simply have been closing it and starting over. Consistantly, after deleting a third font, no matter what it is, I get the spinning wheel and it doesn't stop. I have even tried restarting and repairing disk permissions. Always hangs on the third deletion. Weirdest thing ever!! Is my Macbook Pro on drugs?!
Hi AngelHair
If you are familiar with necessary fonts, you might like to read Dr Smokes

I think it is font book that might be high, not your Mac.
