Fonts missing for random users on random computers

Hello, We're running network home folders (10.4.9 and 10.4.10 client - 10.4.10 server) and recently there's been weird issue with fonts for certain users on certain computers disappearing.
These users can use other computers and other users can use these computers without a problem, but something with the specific user on the specific computer is screwing with the fonts. You can see them all in /Library/Fonts, but when a word processing app is used (Word, Appleworks, iWork, etc), the font list has only about 20 fonts.
Anybody have any ideas?

Hi
On the Server create a folder in the Shared Items folder and call it Library, create another folder within that folder and call it Fonts. Copy all the fonts you wish your network users to use into that folder. Launch Server Admin and make sure Guest Access is enabled for the AFP Service. Go back to WGM and share that folder and use standard POSIX to apply permissions. Make admin the Owner with Read/Write privs, admin as the Group with Read Only privs and Everyone with Read Only privs.
By default when you create new share point, Guest Access is enabled for AFP and SMB. Leave these as they are. You disable FTP sharing if you wish. Select Network Mount and authenticate using the Directory Administrator account. Enable Network Mounting of the newly created share point and set it for Shared Library Use.
For the setting to take effect restart the clients.

  • WinX missing for domain users (Windows Server 2012/R2, Windows 8/8.1)

    Hi,
    I recently created a discussion about a Winx (Right Click) issue that I have in my environment. For windows servers 2012/2012 R2 and windows 8/8.1, I don't have the right click menu.
    I don't use roaming profiles. The workaround is to manually copy the Winx folder for each user who log on but I would like to understand why it doesn't work.
    Here is the previous discussion I created.
    http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/windowsserver/en-US/4e80c369-242f-47ba-bd22-aafb9b0a6072/winx-missing-for-domain-users?forum=winserverManagement#ab6deeb2-cbcd-4147-a871-4c76d4cb37af
    I really appreciate your help.
    Thanks

    Hi,
    I could not reproduce the issue.
    When i log in the Windows Server 2012 with domain user, the WinX folder already exists ans the Right Click is ok.
    So you could create a new domain user to check the result.

  • Content Administration Tab is missing for administrator user in  NW CE 7.1

    we have a issue after upgrading the portal to NW CE 7.1 SP00 RTC.
    "Content Administration" Tab is missing for administrator users

    In CE version, we have to manually enable by using "Content Layer Tool"
                  http://<host>:<port>/irj/servlet/prt/portal/prteventname/HtmlbEvent/prtroot/com.sap.portal.content.layers.ContentLayersTool
    This link may lead to "Portal Runtime Error" because "contentLayerTool" is port of high_safety zone
    To access without runtime error, pls follow the below process.
    1. login http://<host>:<port>/irj with admin user
    2. concatenate the below line to browser

  • Font Book. Can you make Font Collections for all users?

    I set up a few font collections. Now when I login as another user, these font collections are not available. Each user seems to have to set up their own collections.
    Is there any way to set up font collections that all users may be able to access?
    This would be handy if all the users wanted the same collections. Is this possible?

    If you just edit the skeleton file for <code>.xinitrc</code>, then for each user that is created, it will automatically be set to run xfce.  The location of the file is <code>/etc/skel/.xinitrc</code> if that answers your question.

  • ESS - Create Expense Report Link is missing for few users

    Hi,
    We are on ECC 6.0 Ehp 3 with EP 7.0.
    We are using the ESS and in that Standard SAP provided Travel and Expenses Module.
    For few of the users, the Create Expense Report  link is missing eventhough the user is assigned with the  Traveller Role
    SAP_FI_TV_TRAVELER
    Request you to let me know if any setting needs to be done in the back end/infotype to make the Create Expense Report link visible in the portal.
    Appreciate your help.
    Thanks and Regards,
    Sekar

    Hello, 
    Same happened on our side.  User is already set with the proper roles, with the correct info types but when logging in the Portal- she, too, could not view the link for Create Expense Report (which is supposed to Create an expense report for a trip without a travel plan).
    When i use my userid, and just switch personnel number to her number, I could create an expense report on her behalf. 
    That made me conclude that her traveller roles are fine.
    Pls help.

  • WinX missing for domain users

    Hi,
    I currently deploy some Windows Server 2012 R2 in  a test environment and I have a strange issue.
    If I logon with a local user, I can use (Win+X) or the "menu" when I right click on the Windows icon.
    With a domain account, I don't have anything...
    If I copy the folder C:\Users\Administrator\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Windows\WinX to my profile, it works but I don't understand why I have to do that manually (or with a logon script) for each user.
    For information, I don't use roaming profile.
    Am I missing something?
    Is it a normal behavior or a bug ?
    Thank you

    Hi,
    Based on your description, I understand that you can’t see a context menu when click “Win+X” keys.
    à
    If I logon with a local user, I can use (Win+X) or the "menu" when I right click on the Windows icon. With a domain account, I don't have anything...
    Would you please use another domain user account (or domain administrator account) to logon and then check
    if encounter the same issue?
    à
    If I copy the folder C:\Users\Administrator\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Windows\WinX to my profile, it works
    Did you mean that the WinX folder wasn’t existed when this issue occurred? This issue seems to be caused by
    the corrupted or missing WinX folder. Please refer to following thread and check if can help you.
    Problems
    with new start button right-click context menu
    If anything I misunderstand or any update, please don’t hesitate to let me know.
    Hope this helps.

  • My default font size is set at 18px. Is this the default default font size for all users of ff 3.6+?

    I was developing a site in ff when I noticed other browsers were rendering the font size smaller than in firefox. Upon investigation I discovered that my ff 3.6 default font was Adobe Caslon Pro Bold 18px.
    I have never deliberately set this. My understanding was that all browsers default default font size was 16px.
    Has ff default font size changed from 16px to 18px?

    You're welcome.
    You can also see preferences that have changed as bold (user set) values on the about:config page.<br />

  • Trash sounds missing for one user

    Whenever I put something into the Trash or empty it the system trash sounds no longer seem to work.
    Both Trash sounds work with other user accounts but not with mine which is the main Admin account.
    All other system alert sounds work OK on my account - it is only the Trash sounds that do not.
    I have tried repairing permissions and re-installing the 10.4.10 combo update but to no avail.
    Anybody have any clues?
    Edit: This is on my intel iMac
    Message was edited by: Adam Rickets

    I also have lost sound related to emptying the trash (and possibly others), but only from some accounts.
    I have verified the "play user interface sounds" is checked.
    I notice that even in the sound control panel when I move the "Alert volume" slider there is no confirming sound, but there is when I adjust the slider for "output volume".
    How did you "empty the cache in the library"?

  • How do I fix incorrect resolution for Firefox user interface on Retina display Mac?

    I have a 15" retina display Mac (roughly a year old) running Mountain Lion. A couple weeks ago the user interface in Firefox seems have switched from using the normal zoom level of every other application to the native dpi of the retina display monitor. This means that the UI elements are all extremely tiny, etc. Is there anyway to reset this without simply reinstalling or reseting the rest of my configuration?
    Currently running Firefox 27.0.

    You can try to modify the gfx.hidpi.enabled pref on the <b>about:config</b> page (<=0: disable; 1:all screens same res; >1:enable always).
    *http://kb.mozillazine.org/about:config
    Try to disable hardware acceleration in Firefox (you need to close and restart Firefox).
    *Firefox > Preferences > Advanced > General > Browsing: "Use hardware acceleration when available"
    *https://support.mozilla.org/kb/Troubleshooting+extensions+and+themes
    You can set the layout.css.devPixelsPerPx pref on the <b>about:config</b> page to 1.0 and if necessary adjust layout.css.devPixelsPerPx starting from 1.0 in 0.1 or 0.05 steps (1.1 or 0.9) to make icons show correctly.

  • Is there a simple way to set the homepage for all users?

    We are in a high school environment with 500 plus computers and would like to set the school newspaper website as the default homepage for all users of all computers.

    Use a mozilla.cfg file in the Firefox program folder to lock prefs or specify default values.
    Place a file local-settings.js in the defaults\pref folder where you also find the file channel-prefs.js to specify using mozilla.cfg.
    pref("general.config.filename", "mozilla.cfg");
    pref("general.config.obscure_value", 0); // use this to disable the byte-shift
    See:
    * http://kb.mozillazine.org/Locking_preferences
    You can use these functions in mozilla.cfg:
    defaultPref(); // set new default value
    pref(); // set pref, but allow changes in current session
    lockPref(); // lock pref, disallow changes

  • Authorization-problem for standard users when running WDR_TEST_ZCI

    hi
    we've developed a WDA application incorporating several interactive forms. it all runs fine in QA--environment when a user with developer-role are running the application, but when standard users are running it, it fails.
    the same happens with the demo-app WDR_TEST_ZCI.
    i so belive this to be caused by missing authorizations for the users. can anyone shed any light on which these might be?
    the error as reported in the browser:
    The following error text was processed in the system Q97 : Access via 'NULL' object reference not possible.
    The error occurred on the application server xx-x168_Q97_05 and in the work process 0 .

    Hi Tom,
    When you are familiar with authorizations in PFCG trabsaction you are finaliar with S_DEVELOP if not ask the authorization team on your project.
    Basically this authorization object handles the read/write etc authorization related to devlopment objects. If you implement Adobe forms you will probably develop your own forms or at least copy the SAP forms to customer namespace.
    For Adobe you will therefore have 2 custom development objects (1 for the form and 1 for the interface that is automatically generated). The end-user shoulf have at least READ access to these objects. If not the portal will trow an error on this.
    To determine the tech names of the objects find the form and related interface in transaction SFP. These should be inserted in the object S_DEVELOP in the role for the end users.
    You may want to consider to put the value Z* in the object which will give authorization for all the custom developed objects.
    If you can't find the object reply again and i will send a screenshot.
    Finally, make use of the splended transaction ST01!! It will make your life a lot more easy in portal! It traces all the authorizations needed and missing for any user you specify. After activating the trace and running a portal scenario the log will tell you want went OK and what not on an authorization object level.
    Good luck,
    Thomas
    ps. Thanks for the appreciation you gave in my other thread. Now we have the answers in both threads as well. Take Care.

  • Notes not showing up in appraisals for some users

    We are using the Flexible Performance Appraisal process in EHP5.  I have two users that I know of out of 13,000 that are unable to view any notes fields.  They are missing from the view in the ABAP Web Dynpro, but if you go back through the old BSP the notes columns show up.  The notes fields fail to show in both the FAPP and OBJ0 columns in the web dynpro.  Anyone seen something like this before?  I thought it would be a saved configuration or something, but cannot find one.
    Thanks,
