Font rendering issue after motherboard upgrade

This is a strange one.
Took hard-disc containing 10.6.7 out of a 2006 MacBook and put it in a 2007 MacBook.
Everything is working 100%, except for some slight differences in fonts. In some apps, they are rendered thicker (seeming only when shadowed), but in one web page (GitHub.com looking at chagesets), a section is rendered with weird Capital A with a box around it (like a WebDing of a picture of a key cap).
Of course, only Safari renders this page that way. OmniWeb and FireFox don't.
Any ideas?

Hi Nigel --
Welcome to Apple Discussions!
We're not staff, but other Mac users here, asking questions and sharing solutions.
We've got a font expert here, and here is Kurt Lang's opinion on capital A's in boxes:
Quote from Kurt Lang on this subject:
+A’s with boxes around them is always a sign of trouble with the main system+
+font, Lucida Grande.+
+Quick possible fix is to remove ALL font cache files from the system to see+
+if it's just bad cache data. For that, you need to use OnyX or other utility+
+which will remove both system and user cache files. A Safe Mode boot won't+
+work since it only removes cache data from the user account you do a safe+
+boot to.+
+If after that the problem returns, then Lucida Grande itself is damaged and+
+needs to be replaced.+

  • ABAP Webdynpro Rendering issues after ECC Upgrade

    Dear All,
    We recently upgraded ECC to EHP 7 (Netweaver 7.4)  but our Portal is still at Netweaver 7.0 EHP2 SP16.
    The ABAP Webdynpro iViews in Portal have the following issues. ( We use IE11).
    1. The ABAP Webdynpro Table filtering is not working. When I click the filter button it does nothing.  
    2. The cursor in the  Input fields reset back to the first position while typing and create a big mess.
    Any help appreciated.
    Thank you.
    PK

    Hi N_niki
    There is no resolution as such.
    We had raised a Customer message with SAP and were informed that this was expected as the procedure to execute the reports was changed in ECC when compared to 4.6 (technical changes) and hence this issue shall remain for some queries wherein the old changes need to be brought back using an option in the SAP Query.
    Please refer to SAP Note # 723577 which could provide a better explanation for the issue.
    Hope this helps.
    Thanks

  • Font Rendering Issues-Help Required Please

    In the past week, any Google search on Firefox or Chrome (but not Opera) gives me results where the fonts look gappy. Sometimes there are additional dots above the letters. I uninstalled and reinstalled Firefox from scratch in case an add-on was at fault but even with a clean install I am still seeing the issue. I checked my font settings and do not have any minimum font size set. I have allow pages to choose their own font ticked.
    I've uploaded an image where I can see some correctly rendered text and some gappy looking text (not from a Google search but a Mozilla query). It also happens when commenting online sometimes, during typing it will be gappy but it will show properly once submitted. Any ideas for a fix would be warmly welcomed and I can give more examples if that would help. Although it's not Firefox related, I did restore all defaults in Chrome and it didn't fix the issue there either.
    I uninstalled the most recent Windows Update since the problem is recent but it didn't change anything. I'm not sure if browsers would even look to my computers fonts.

    hi Auds77, this is probably caused by microsoft update kb3013455 which can cause font rendering issues on vista:
    <blockquote>After you install security update 3013455, you may notice some text quality degradation in certain scenarios. The problem only occurs on systems that are running Windows Vista SP2 or Windows Server 2003 SP2. Microsoft is researching this problem and will post more information in this article when the information becomes available. </blockquote>
    <sup>reference: https://support.microsoft.com/kb/3013455</sup>
    one option may be to [http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/remove-update#1TC=windows-vista roll-back this particular update] for now until there is a fix by microsoft or you could also look if there is a [[Upgrade your graphics drivers to use hardware acceleration and WebGL|graphics driver update]] available on the website of the vendor (intel/amd/nvidia) which might also resolve this problem in some cases.

  • Performance Issues after an Upgrade

    Hello!
    We are experiencing performance issues after we upgraded to a new version of Hyperion (11.1.2.1). At this point, I am not too sure about the actual causes for this degrade in performance but I am trying to narrow down the causes and need your inputs. Please help me with your ideas.
    1) What could be the causes/factors for the performance to degrade after an upgrade?
    2) Does the performance of a script depend on the user credentials i.e. who is launching the script? Whether it’s the super admin of the application/application owner or an application specific admin?
    3) Does the performance of the scripts depend on the place you are launching it from? For example - will the performance differ if it’s launched from MaxL Vs EAS?
    Please let me know your thoughts on this.
    Thanks,
    - Krrish

  • Font rendering issue & multimedia keys not working

    Hi, yesterday i switched to KDEmod 4.1 and I have two major problems...
    One is font rendering issue... I did not change anything in my font-related packages (cairo, freetype, fontconfig, libxft) and i have to add that this setup worked perfectly in KDEmod 3.5.9, but now it looks like this:
    This bug occurs only in qt apps and mostly in kmenu... i.e firefox renders my fonts flawlessly...
    Second problem are multimedia keys on my keyboard...
    They worked in KDE 3.5.9, but now I cannot set them up properly... Sometimes they work, sometimes they don't...
    KDE recognizes the pressed key, but when I assign specific action and press the key, just nothing happens...

    You might be able to solve your font issue by going to System Settings -> Appearance -> Fonts.  I enable ant-aliasing.  I also clicked on configure and select "Use sub-pixel rendering" to RGB and the hinting style to Full.  I also use the Force fonts DPI to 96 DPI.  This makes the fonts pleasing to my eyes.
    This is how I got my multimedia keys to work in KDE4.1:
    Go to System Settings -> Regional and Language and make sure to set the County or region to your location.
    khotkeys needs to be running.  I added it to the autostarted progam list. System Settings -> Advanced tab -> Autostart
    When I got the multimedia keys working, I was really tring to get the keyboard shortcuts to work.  In addition to the above steps, I also deleted
    ~/.kde4/share/config/kglobalshortcutsrc.  I do not know if deleting this file is needed to get the multimedia keys working, but it was to get the keyboard shortcuts woring.
    Restart X
    Go to  System Settings -> Keyboard and Mouse -> Keyboard Shortcuts
    I set the volume control in the KMix component section.
    To get the keyboard shortcuts to work, go to the menu editor and select the program you want to create a shortcuts for.  Click on the advanced tab and create the shortcut in the shortcut field.  Save.
    Then go to  System Settings -> Keyboard and Mouse -> Keyboard Shortcuts. Change the component to KHotkeys.  Select the Program and then select the default shortcut that you just created.  (This works for the multimedia keys aswell).
    Hope this helps,

  • Font rendering issue / Mountain Lion / non Apple LCD display

    Hello
    This font rendering issue or problem is probably well know by Apple crew too but nobody has solved it yet. Only poor solution are available such as try to adjust manually font rendering by writin some scripts concerning anti alias levels...they really dont solve the problem.
    Could Apple bring us solution to this by developing or updating Mountain Lion?
    So what is the problem: font rendering is very poor in Mountain Lion when using non Apple LCD. For example Fujitsu SL27T-1 LED (LCD displa) shows fonts very nice way in Windows but in Mac OS ML does not. Somebody told me that its about software vs. hardware rendering. Dont know about that but could you bring me the solution which is not advising me to buy Apple display (which is five times more expensive than other manufactures displays).
    Br
    M. Leino

    just want to add that overall fonts look blurry and they are not very sharp.

  • Firefox/Thunderbird Font Rendering changed after upgrade of xulrunner

    Hi guys,
    I experienced a problem with font rendering in the mentioned applications after upgrading xulrunner from 1.9.2.10-1 to 1.9.2.10-2 today. It seems like font smoothing/subpixel rendering does not work as before. After downgrading to 1.9.2.10-1, it worked as expected again.
    To make it more clearly, here is a comparison shot of the two different renderings. The top one is before, the bottom one after the upgrade. You can see that the font at the top is rendered more smoothly.
    And here is a difference image:
    Is anything known about changes which could cause this?
    <edit>I have to correct this. The rendering in thunderbird was obviously not changed by the xulrunner upgrade, but by a separate thunderbird upgrade from 3.1.4-1 to 3.1.4-2.
    <edit2>Additional information: I have the cleartype versions of freetype2, cairo and libxft installed, if that matters.

    Although I am empathetic to the hard (and really great) job the arch devs do, I want to voice my overall agreement with softtower on this issue. Fonts have been an off and on problem for me with arch since the beginning. I understand the devs are doing the best they can, especially when the actual problem is with the moz. devs. But fonts are the major way most users interact with the system, and I can tell you that almost nothing is more aggravating, to me at least, to suddenly "upgrade" and get presented with those really crappy fonts out of the blue. Just saying I understand the frustration, and I think he makes some good points about shipping broken packages and "blaming" it on upstream. If they're broken - don't use them! if possible. "Progress" that breaks stuff isn't really progress, imo.
    hokasch wrote:
    Don't quite get what the fuzz is all about, my fonts look as crisp as ever (on a laptop lcd), the update changed absolutely nothing for me. I never used "fixed" versions of anything, can't really remember how I set up the fonts when I did this installation though (font config advice on the wiki I guess).
    It is not the repo's maintainers job to keep packages synced up with any "fixed" packages in AUR, that is your own responsibility, and bitching about it won't help you any.
    Just pointing out that comments like these aren't really helpful, imho. So you didn't have the problem - that's good to know, but the "fuzz" is about the fact that some of us *DO* have the problem.
    It typically doesn't show up on laptops, btw, only standalone LCDs for some reason (has always been the case for me, at least, with both LCDs and laptops, where the laptop never had the problem). So again, the fuss is that a major usability function got broken from an upgrade that shouldn't get broken, and imo it raises some good, if admittedly difficult to resolve, points, philosophical points, etc. about the packaging and upgrade process,

  • Font render issue after upgrading to iOS 4.2.1.

    Hi,
    I happen to have a friends iPhone, trying to restore it with original firmware 4.2.1, but it keeps a font issue where it has trouble getting it right.
    http://www.stepserver.nl/~step/3gs1.PNG
    http://www.stepserver.nl/~step/3gs2.PNG
    I tried to recover the iPhone in any way, tried different languages. Inverted the screencolors all to no avail. Does anyone have any idea what I can do to correct this issue? Or is this an overheating problem (GPU related), however the icons and background and rest of the iPhone is alright (except all the fonts..)

    I have the same issue after iOS 4.2.1 update. I am using iPhone 3GS officially unlocked by Apple. I tried using different SIM cards and both carriers show same problem when using phone in 3G mode. Phone falls back to EDGE mode showing 'E' from '3G' at start. I have reset the phone and rebooted several times and moved to different cell areas in the city just to verify the problem.
    I had no such issues earlier. I also have Nokia E71 which shows full signal and has no such issues.
    I have posted the bug on apple iphone feedback page. I hope they Apple will fix the problem and test the release properly on all models before releasing to public.

  • Slimer qt fonts & wierd encoding issues after the upgrade to qt 4.5

    After the upgrade to qt 4.5, all qt apps have really slim fonts http://i42.tinypic.com/2ln8x10.png
    here on an older screenshot http://i42.tinypic.com/2chmbnn.png.
    Also there are some glitches with the encoding http://i43.tinypic.com/16ke3o6.png,  after i press something it fixes itself http://i44.tinypic.com/2ds302d.png
    Last edited by Maki (2009-03-15 11:26:55)

    About the slim fonts... this is actually a fix with qt4.5. Old qt didnt respect some system font settings so now that it does, tweak ~/.fonts.conf how you want it.
    And about glitches... there will be some minor problems untill kdemod rebuilds against the new qt, you can rebuild workspace yourself if you dont want to wait for them.

  • Web dynpro ABAP- small issue after EHC1 upgrade

    Hi All,
    We have a Web dynpro ABAP report and it was working fine before the EHC1 upgrade. After the upgrade we noticed that the row count in ALV greed was disappeared.
    The report used to show 25 records per page and we were able to jump to the other pages by clicking on row count that was placed right below the report. Now report shows all the records and we only have scroll down option.
    Any idea where to look/ how to fix this issue?
    Regards,
    Mike

    In addition to applying that note, you also must deactivate Lightspeed rendering.  To me that's too extreme of a thing to do just to get paginators.  You loose the huge rendering performance improvements and it also means you can't use any of the new UI elements from 7.01.

  • Can anyone make --this fix-- work for the FONT rendering issue?

    I found this bug report and proposed fix on the webkit buglist:
    http://bugs.webkit.org/show_bug.cgi?id=14070
    Here is a link that one says can be used to fix the
    rendering issue with bold fonts.
    If anyone can make this work for Safari 3 on XP please let me know....
    Here are the text and link to the how to:
    You can fix rendering issues by changing language for non-Unicode programs. The
    instruction:
    http://www.microsoft.com/globaldev/handson/user/xpintlsupp.mspx#EVE
    You should restart system after applying setting.
    Hope this helps someone
    If not, then call apple support and complain....
    maybe if their support phones are getting hot... then they
    will fix this horrible bug

    I don't believe this is a support issue, it's rather a Bugdev issue. Use the Bug-Report field in Safari to report this directly to the engineers. I also think the bug is known and will be solved, it's therefore not really in the range of AppleCare. (Beta Software is usually unsupported!)

  • Font rendering issue in Windows 7 with Aero

    I'm running Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit, and using Firefox 19.0.2. Aero is enabled, but the ClearType font smoothing is turned off.
    At completely random intervals, text is rendered like this in Firefox:
    http://i49.tinypic.com/vgshv4.png
    Sometimes it can be fixed as simply as hovering the mouse pointer over the affected parts. Sometimes I have to mark the text to get it rendered correctly, and sometimes it can be fixed by scrolling the page.
    It can happen on any sites with any encoding, regardless of the font size and color, but I noticed it's extremely rarely happens with Japanese text. It never affects the whole page, only random parts of the on-screen text, and sometimes the interface text as well. Also worth mentioning that it never happens when Aero is turned off.
    Is this a Firefox bug, or is something wrong with my system? Thanks in advance.

    I had the same issue, uninstalling windows update kb2670838 fixed it for me. See also:

  • Fonts went strange after system upgrade

    After 'pacman -Syu' i rebooted and my fonts started looking strange, kinda bigger.
    In some places its not even noticeable but again in other places it is x(.
    I'm using Flubox as a WM and i really don't think this has anything to do with the WM.
    I was wondering if anyone else experienced some similar problems after this upgrade?

    Any ideas?

    I'm having a similar issue. Only difference is that fonts looks smaller than before the upgrade.
    I don't think this has something to do with KMS, because that update was a week ago an no problem was detected. This small fonts issue is probably related to recent updates on xorg- stuff.
    Moreover, the strange thing here is that only GUIs fonts got smaller. Fonts on firefox (the webpage, not the user interface) looks exactly the same as before.
    What should we do?

  • IPhone syncing issues after iTunes upgrade

    Hi
    I just upgraded to iTunes 8.1.1 for Mac. During the install I got a kernel panic and had to restart. iTunes seems to be installed fine. When I connect my iPhone I get messages like "some content will not be copied to the iPhone as this computer is not authorized" or such like. So now several apps, videos and music has been wiped from the iPhone.
    I tried authorizing the computer but I just get "This computer is already authorized".
    there does not seem to be any particular link between the erased content. Some was purchased on the Mac and some on the iPhone, all from the iTunes store. Before I updated iTunes everything synced fine.
    I can d/l the apps again direct to the iPhone but I can't find a way to get the missing music and videos back on the iPhone. Very annoying.
    Would re-installing iTunes help?
    Any ideas?
    Thanks
    Chris

    Hi Chris,
    Try highlighting the one of the songs that will not sync in iTunes> cilck File> Get Info, check the account name and verifying you are authorizing the computer with correct account.
    If the issue persists, try removing the SC Info folder as shown here: http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1389
    If you still see the issue after removing the SC Info folder, try reinstalling iTunes as shown here: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1224
