Fonts not appearing in illustrator after installing

I am installing fonts in windows 7 by right clicking on the file and clicking install. After successfully installing the fonts, they aren't showing up in illustrator (or photoshop). I checked my windows font folder and the new fonts are indeed there. The newly installed fonts do work in other programs like Office. I am using CS3. Any ideas?

I remember fonts update inmediatly in Illustrator/photoshop as soon as you install it (at least in CS5 they do) but I'm unsure in CS3
Have you tried restarting Illustrator and see if the fonts are there? Also, could there be a chance that the fonts are corrupted or not supported by your version of Illustrator?
Just some thoughts.

Activated fonts not appearing in Illustrator?

I'm running Illustrator CS on a Dual PPC G5 running OS 10.3.9. I have an OpenType font active (using Linotype FontExplorer to manage fonts) and can use the font in all programs except the Adobe ones (Illustrator and Photoshop). Why would the font not appear there? I need it for a logo that I have to manipulate into a vector graphic, but I can't do anything if it won't appear in the type menu. Any ideas as to what's going on and how I can fix this?

Christine,
Did you by any chance create the fonts yourself? OpenType fonts shouldn't cause any more trouble than Type 1 if they are correctly made and named.
If their names show up incorrectly or if they don't show up at all, it's probably because someone did something wrong in Font Info when he was making the font. If you make use of the Build Names thingummy in FontLab Studio it can save you a lot of this kind of trouble. I have done quite a bit of this kind of work - adding Icelandic characters to fonts and that sort of thing - and find that it's absolutely essential to do things right if you want to avoid problems in FontExplorer.
It can sometimes happen too that fonts are made specifically for Windows, in which case they may need to be edited and re-saved for Mac before you can use them so that they work perfectly. You can often get a Windows font to work well on a Mac but you should keep your eyes open for glitches all the same.
And another thing, you may occasionally need to restart Illy when you've made changes to fonts in FontExplorer. This doesn't happen often these days but still crops up occasionally all the same.

Font not appearing in illustrator

HAPPY NEW YEAR to everyone! I have downloaded the free font Baveuse and installed it in my Font Book .. using a Mac, 10.8.2. Font appears in photoshop but not illustrator. I have validated the font, shut down illustrator, shut down the computer but the font remains not available within illustrator. I also have Baveuse 3d in my font library and both the 3d and normal baveuse show in Ps cs6 .. weird!
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!

In reading the forum, the only two suggestions I have read for when Illy doesn't see fonts is to either delete the font cache(s) and or delete the preferences.
Both those suggestions are in the following thread. It should move to post #14 by Wade which concerns the prefs, then the following post #15 by Nini on the font cache issue.
I have zero idea if either works as I have not ever needed to do either.

BI Publisher Desktop 11.1.1.5 Does Not Appear In Word after install

I have a 2008 version of BI Publisher Installed against Word 2007 (Office Home and Student Edition) which works fine.
I de-installed this and installed the latest version but the BI Publisher tab does not appear in Word now.
I've repeated the exercise several times - I can install the older version and the plugin appears.
Any Ideas?
Mike

Oracle Explorer not appearing in VS2005 after installing ODT 11.1.0.6.20

this was installed for both vs2003 & vs2005. Installation completed successfully.
loading up vs2003 for first time after ODT i was able to select Oracle Explorer option from the View menu, connect successfully and perform actions as expected.
loading up vs2005 for first time after ODT install i got an initial error saying "Command with same name already exists" - this error only occured the once.
in vs2005 the Oracle Explorer option does not exist in the view menu, but it has added the oracle data items to my toolbox. And in the VS About option it says Oracle Developer Tools for Visual Studio 11.1.0.6.20 is installed.
Where is my oracle explorer!!
Cheers,
Karen

Hi, Oracle Explorer was replaced by Server Explorer in VS 2005 onward. Please open up Server Explorer, add a new connection, and choose "ODP.NET" from the list of Data Providers.

Font not working in iTunes after installing Marvericks

This is what my iTunes looks like when I opened it for the first time after upgrading to Mavericks. What went wrong and how can I fix it??

Nevermind, I fixed it. It must have happened when I tried to replace all the fonts that disappeared when I upgraded from my external hard drive. To fix it, I used my husband's computer, copied all the fonts from his HD to my external, and then put them back onto my computer.
Not sure what font it was that went missing/was replaced though. So if anyone else wants to chime in with the font Apple uses on the tool bar for its apps (turns out iPhoto, iTunes, iBooks, and the app store had unreadable tool bars) in case anyone else has this issue, feel free!

I can not open different sites after installing itunes. Why?

I can not open different sites after installing itunes. I can`t open google.com or youtube.com. Why?

Before anyone can help, they need information to work with. Basic stuff: What version of iPhoto. What version of the Operating System. Details. What were you doing when the problem arose? Did it ever work properly? Step-by-step descriptions of how you got to this issue. If something doesn't work, are there error messages? What happens when you try to do this thing? And what steps have you tried already to solve the issue. With this kind of information somebody can develop a starting point for troubleshooting the issue.
Posts that consist of "iPhoto doesn't work. Help" or "iPhoto won't print" or "Suddenly I have no photos!!!!!!!!!!" mean that a helper is simply guessing. With information, s/he may be able to get your issue resolved sooner.

The forward, back, refresh, and stop buttons are not working. Even after installing the latest version. Anyone else having this issue?

The forward, back, refresh, and stop buttons are not working. Even after installing the latest Firefox update. Also my home page stopped loading upon startup even tho I have it setup to do so. Anyone else experiencing these issues? This is my second request for help and of course, Firefox on-line support is always closed.

Those are all symptoms of a problem with the places.sqlite file, for details see http://kb.mozillazine.org/Locked_or_damaged_places.sqlite

Hi,
Does the issue happen to all users? What’s your IE version? Is there any error when you access OWA 2007 in IE?
Please click Compatibility View settings in your Internet Explorer. Then, add the OWA site to the list of sites to be viewed in compatibility view and check whether the issue persists.
