Fonts missing in CS4 but are installed in Win font folder.

Hi, newbie member and first forum post.
Problem - I have 270 fonts installed in the C/win/fonts folder but CS4 only displays ~120 fonts.
Is there another approach to getting CS4 to access all fonts?
I have followed up with most related posts on this forum but have not found a solution yet.
(Running Win XP)
Thank you - Paul

Sorry, wasn't clear enough. What I meant is that there are font tittles in the C/win/fonts folder that do not show up in the CS3 font list selection. - Paul
Photoshop doesn't always read the file name which is what you see in Explorer.
Do a right click on a font file and look at Properties.

I have CS4 but am installing CS6 rather than upgrading. Do I need to uninstall CS4?

I am still using CS4 at prepsent but am installing the complete CS6 rather than upgrading. Do I need to uninstall CS4 or is that taken care of when installing CS6?

There should be no problem, having two versions of PS installed. For nearly every program, and for decades, Adobe installers do NOT overwrite existing versions of any program - the installation is complete, and separate.
While I have not tested with PS CS 6, going back, I had PS 4.0.1, PS 7.0.1 and PS CS installed on the same computer. The first, was to do something, that was changed in PS 5.0, and that I used about twice per year. The latter two, were because I knew PS 7.0.1, and had just upgraded to CS, and was learning the differences (significant). I kept PS 7 around, in case a client called at 5:00PM with a revision, and the courier was enroute. I did not want to fumble with a new interface, when under deadline. Never had one issue.
Good luck,

Fonts missing in Flash that are installed

Hi there,
I've created a layout in Illustrator using Myriad font,
however when I import into Flash (on the same system) it says the
font is missing. Sure enough Flash doesn't have Myriad in the font
drop down, even though it is installed on the machine & visable
to other apps. What's the problem?!
Thanks
Ben

A bit of additional information... The Myriad font is a True
Type. It was installed under C:\Program Files\Common
Files\Adobe\Fonts so I have installed it under C:\Windows\Fonts and
restarted Flash, however it still doesn't show up?

Place in Indesign Missing from CS4 after CS5 install

I have noticed that on two of our macs after installing CS5 that the Place in Indesign command in CS4 bridge is no longer appearing in the list anymore, all other choices are there, Does anyone have a fix for this. - thanks!

From another Forum Gabe Harbs was so kind to provide a solution with a script that needs a little modification. Here is his message:
Gabe Harbs wrote:
Here’s a Bridge script (that I wrote over a year ago) which adds a context menu to relink the selected file to the currently selected frame in InDesign.
You install the script in: App Support > Adobe > Startup Scripts [Version] > Adobe Bridge.
It would be a pretty simple task to modify the script to place the file instead of relinking...

It's not possible to include a jsx or zip file on this forum, I therefor placed it on Rapid Share, it will not stay there forever so just check it out ASAP

Hope this works for you.

Index entries missing in .chm but are present in the printed version

This is strange.
I have a number of index entries as follows:
troubleshooting/file problems
troubleshooting/login problems
troubleshooting/printer problems
These appear in the .docx (Word) version, which is what I've been using for the review cycle. Today, though, I had the .chm open and I noticed that the entire group of troubleshooting\ entries aren't in the .chm!
I recompiled the HTML Help, just in case I was looking at an old version and no, they're not there.
I searched for them in the Index tab, thinking maybe they were somehow out of order, but they're truly not there.
Any idea what could be causing this? I'm using RoboHelp 9.

I don't know how to apply conditional build tags against an index, so I didn't do that -- at least not deliberately
I looked at the HTML, the Advanced tab in Topic properties, and the TOC page properties. I don't see anything there that looks like a Condition setting. I looked at the HTML externally (that is, went to Windows Explorer and double-clicked the file and then looked at the HTML source). Couldn't see anything. I launched the .chm file and then looked at the HTML for that topic. Still couldn't see anything.
I opened the .hhk file and I can see the entries for troubleshooting, I believe. Here is what I see:

I have a bunch of system files that should be hidden, but are visible in my finder folder (for example, a file called ".Ds_Store appears). How can I hide these from view?

I have a macbook pro, and a few months ago I had to find some hidden system files. I asked a discussion question, and someone helped me to display all the hidden folders. However, now I can't figure out a way to hide these files again (I no longer need to see them). How do I do this? It's not just one file, but a whole bunch of files.

Open the Script Editor or AppleScript Editor in one of the subfolders of Applications and run the following:
tell application "Finder" to quit
if (do shell script "defaults read com.apple.finder AppleShowAllFiles") is "1" then
do shell script "defaults write com.apple.finder AppleShowAllFiles 0"
else
do shell script "defaults write com.apple.finder AppleShowAllFiles 1"
end if
delay 2
tell application "Finder" to run
If you change your mind later, run the script again.

In firefox 4 RC, some addons installed suddenly disappear, but checking the profile, some of the missing addons related files are still here, how to make the addons back?

I use firefox 4 form beta 9 to RC (zh) now and there are also firefox 3.6 installed in computer. One day when I open Fx 4 RC, some (actually a lot but not all) of the adoons just disappear. When I check on about:addons page, some addons installed do not appear in the list.
The addons '''REMAINED''' including:
* addons I already used in Fx 3.6 (like webmail notifie , xmarks)
* ''addons only can use in Fx 4'' (like Open Web Apps for Firefox).
The addons '''DISAPPEARED''' including:
* addons I already used in Fx 3.6 (like yoono)
* '' addons installed when using Fx 4'' (like updatescanner, Thumbnail Zoom).
But when I check the profile(by Help > Troubleshooting Information>Open Containing Folder) , some (not sure is it all) of the missing addons related files are still here [lucky], so any one know how to make the missing addons back?
Some more details:
* This happened when i use RC for already a few days and keep on even i restart Fx and windows.
* The bookmarks, history, search engine and even themes and icon setting are still here. [ I only sync bookmarks but not history for both xmarks and firefox sync.]
* This addons are really '''disappeared''' but not disable only!
* This number of addons missed, as i remember, at least 30, should be more than that number bacause some of them are installed but in disable mode.
* I try to install back one of the addons - Stylish, the installed code are still here.
* It is nearly an impossible mission to install every missing addons again, as it really kill my time.

Delete the files extensions.* (extensions.rdf, extensions.cache, extensions.ini, extensions.sqlite) and compatibility.ini in the Firefox [[Profiles|profile folder]] to reset the extensions registry. New files will be created when required.
See "Corrupt extension files": http://kb.mozillazine.org/Unable_to_install_themes_or_extensions
If you see disabled, not compatible, extensions in "Tools > Add-ons > Extensions" then click the Tools button at the left side of the Search Bar to do a compatibility check.

IDD not loading fonts that are installed on computer

My computer crashed last week and I have re-installed all CS5.5 programs. All of our IDD files use Lucida Sans (regular, italic, demibold, and demibold italic). These fonts are installed on the computer (Windows 7 - 64) but IDD is not seeing the italic or the demibold italic. I've deleted and re-installed several times. Illustrator seems to open oblique and demibold oblique but I don't even have them installed. I have tried to find the shared program files mentioned in the trouble shooting but can't find and I've even searched through "hidden files." If I open one of our old packaged files, it opens with the right fonts. I even used those packaged fonts to re-install onto my computer but the new IDD files or non-packaged files are still not seeing the two missing fonts. The fonts ARE available in word, etc. HELP!

I noticed that I could open the IDD files from the server (as opposed to on my computer) and they would open with Lucida Sans oblique/demibold oblique instead of the italic/demibold italic. For all intents and purposes, it's the same thing. So I uninstalled the fonts from my computer one more time and installed fonts from the server. Now at least all four font styles open on my computer. I'll have to replace all "italics" with "oblique" but at least I can function. So I suspect it has something to do with the AdobdeFnt13.1st files AND the windows security update.
Thank you ALL so much for your help.

My fonts that are installed in Font Book are not showing up in Microsoft Word. Can someone help me fix this problem?

Hello!
I am needing some help. I own a Mac Book Air with OS X 10.7.5. This computer belongs to the school district I teach for, so I do not have permission to do a huge wipe that would uninstall programs such as Word. When I first got my computer, I added all my fonts. I did this by putting them into a fonts folder. The fonts were not all showing up in Microsoft Word, so I was told to use Font Book. All of my fonts show up and are installed in Font Book; however, they do not show up in Word. I have restarted my computer. All the fonts are validated. I have tried almost everything I could think of after researching answers online. Another problem--my bullet points are messed up. When I click the bullet button, instead of an open circle it's an open rectangle. This doesn't concern me as much, but I thought it might help as a clue as to what is wrong. The fonts also do not show up in the Format > Font box.
Also, I want to point out that my colleagues, using the exact same computer, network, etc, are able to download and use all the fonts. They have tried to fix mine, also.
Any help is much appreciated! Maybe there is some way to wipe out my fonts and start clean?
Thanks so much!

Hi there, In CS3 I saw both my scanners in Import From Device, but in CS4 they are vanished, anyone have a solution for me? Thanks in advance.

Hi there, In CS3 I saw both my scanners in Import From Device, but in CS4 they are vanished, anyone have a solution for me? Thanks in advance.

The Twain.Plugin conflicted with bad scanner drivers made by scanner manufacturers and caused too many problems so it is not installed by default. Its in the goodies folder.
But I have to ask. Why tie up a $1000 application to use a $100 scanner? Use the scanner as a stand alone with the software that came with the scanner or use VueScan that way you can keep working while you are scanning. BTW you know that you are using the scanner software when you scan through photoshop right. Photoshop has no scanning capabilities built in.

Please do not use the post title to post the entire question (no offense, it just makes the forum look ugly). As for your question - you really did install it? I mean with serial and install disc? If so, the update would work, because it would find the proper install info. That not being the case, there are a few things that may be wrong:
- due to you language settings, the installer cannot find the folder because it has a different name (though on Vista, that shouldn't be an issue)
- at some point, you used the CS4 Clean Utility/ Script to remove install info
- you are using a pirated copy that you may have bought on eBay or elsewhere that has a modified installer to circumvent licensing
- you are using an unlicensed version a "friend" gave you and that never was installed, but merely copied to the harddrive
That pretty much covers the immediate options, now it's up to you to tell us, which one may apply. Assuming, we are talking about perfectly legit software, re-installing it from the original media should take care of the problem. For illegal software, you should understand, that you are utterly on your own and nobody will help you, much less on the forums of the company producing the software.

Freehand telling me fonts (that are installed) are not.

Hi there
I'm new to this forum but have a very important issue that I desperately need help with. I had to do an archive install recently as my machine wasn't opening any programs as a result of a crash during a software update. The computer has since been in many ways better and faster than before, all except a font issue with freehand mx (11.0.2). The problem is this: whenever I open a document it tells me that several of the fonts are not installed. I use 'font book' as a type manager and all the fonts are active within the program. Illustrator and Photoshop have no problem reading the same fonts that Freehand tells me are not installed. I've tried reloading Freehand a few times and reloading the fonts too. I downloaded the freehand update which didn't help either. I have quite a few fonts active but for some reason it tells me that about 30 or so are not installed which they obviously are. This is the first time I've ever had an issue like this with freehand having used this version and it's predecessors for a number of years. I run leopard 10.5.8 on my machine. I use illustrator and freehand a lot however most of my work is still in freehand so this potentially posses a very large problem.
Please can anyone offer me some light on this matter.
Thanks
al

Hi Mark
Thanks for your help so far,
Unfortunately freehand itself is telling me several fonts, some new ones but even very straight forward ones like verdana, Trebuchet ms, windings etc. aren't installed. If I open about 70% of previous work it says the same thing. This also happens if it's a new document entirely (some fonts are not in the list). All the fonts show up in Photoshop and Illustrator however. I tried reloading the fonts again and reloading Freehand and the update just to make sure.
I'm still very stumped

Subject: Freehand telling me fonts (that are installed) are not.
OK this info helps, Al.
So, create a new Freehand document and type in some text and choose the problem fonts from the font list. If these show up OK in the new FH file, than there is a corruption in your old file somewhere. If not, try these fonts in other applications to make sure they indeed work.
What I would do is create a new FH file at the same size and specs as your old file. Then copy/paste the art from the old one onto the new one and see if the fonts show up.
If not, then try the non-text elements only along with the text blocks that do show up correctly. The worst that can happen is copy paste the old text into the new file and reformat it to the fonts that wouldn't show up before. Basically using a clean, uncorrupted file.
Let me know what happens.

My iphoto says it's open, but isn't. All updates are installed. Help????

My iphotos says it's open, but isn't. All of my software updates are installed. Help!!!! Thanks

Try trash the com.apple.iPhoto.plist file from the HD/Users/ Your Name / library / preferences folder.
(On 10.7: Hold the option (or alt) key while clicking on the Go menu in Finder to access the User Library)
(Remember you'll need to reset your User options afterwards. These include minor settings like the window colour and so on. Note: If you've moved your library you'll need to point iPhoto at it again.)
What's the plist file?
For new users: Every application on your Mac has an accompanying plist file. It records certain User choices. For instance, in your favourite Word Processor it remembers your choice of Default Font, on your Web Browser is remembers things like your choice of Home Page. It even recalls what windows you had open last if your app allows you to pick up from where you left off last. The iPhoto plist file remembers things like the location of the Library, your choice of background colour, whether you are running a Referenced or Managed Library, what preferences you have for autosplitting events and so on. Trashing the plist file forces the app to generate a new one on the next launch, and this restores things to the Factory Defaults. Hence, if you've changed any of these things you'll need to reset them. If you haven't, then no bother. Trashing the plist file is Mac troubleshooting 101.

No new add ons are installing, they say installed but do not show up in add ons

i installed adblock plus, block site, and something to open a new tab to homepage. they all SAY they are installed and restart firefox at the end of the installation. yet this has no effects, i see add ons, have no way to use block site at all, and my new tabs still dont open to homepage. so i went to tools>add-ons and none of the add ons installed even show up. just what was already there
i dont know if this has something to do with conduit. i worked like 2 hours to get rid of it, deleting it from hkey registry, running a full scan with eset smart security 6, deleting all my cookies, my history, clearing everything in about:config many many times. still when i open a new tab it is in search:conduit even after disabling every single add on many of which have absolutely nothing to do with conduit. yet when i run firefox with ad ons disabled it goes away and new tabs open to the rectangles where you can pick google, yahoo etc. my preference would be for the rectangles to appear. but if i must i will use open new tab to home page add on. just the problem is that i cant install it.
now when i search for conduit in about:config conduit came back yet again. guess i couldnt get rid of it after all! this is so frustrating. i really need someone who knows their stuff and i would greatly appreciate help. all previous posts i read on how to get rid of it all proved useless. why is there no solution to this problem?!
right now i just want add ons to work because it seems that, at least for now, when i type something in to the url bar it searches in google, so if i can get new tabs to open in anything but conduit i guess i can ignore the fact that it is really annoying that conduit is still located in about:config. (oh and yes i did delete everything from add/remove programs realted to toolbars and conduit or whatever similar)

oops my bad. first paragraph meant to say "i see ads". not ad ons
