Fonts not installing on FontBook after OS X Yosemite upgrade

After I installed OS X Yosemite, I open FontBook to install new fonts. The font installation windows appears (Validating, Installing, etc.) but then it disappears and none of the fonts installs. Is anybody else experiencing this problem?
I'm on a MacBook Pro (Retina, 13-inch, Late 2013)

I actually looked elsewhere for an answer and found I had to download the Adobe Creative Cloud to successfully download Acrobat Pro.
As a new Adobe user, it is a pretty poor that (a) there is not a full installation guide catering to all user levels and (b) Adobe still seem unaware of the problem judging by the responses to my original post and (c) ACC is another pay monthly option over and above Pro 11.
Forgive me if this is obvious to experienced Adobe users, it is not to me.

What is the exact model of the AirPort Express that you are trying to install? Which version of the AirPort Utility are you using? What is the operating system and version, and on what device, are you running the AirPort Utility on?

Apps will not install or update after ios 8 installation

Apps will not install or update after ios8 installation

The solution that worked for me was to identify the apps that were stuck updating, and then find them on my iPhone. (You can't search for them, you have to find their icon on your iPhone's desktop.) Then I deleted those apps. Then I went back to the App store, and they downloaded/updated like normal. I did the same thing for the same problem on my iPad, and that also worked.
Best of luck to everyone.

Fonts not installing on new install of AI CS2

Hi; I have reinstalled AICS2 on a new machine and for some reason some of the fonts did not install (Eurostil, for one); after updating via the Adobe Updater, the font still does not appear, even though I have it on the old install. Anyone ever come across this issue?

They may not be fonts Illustrator CS2 installs, as "Eurostil" is not a font Adobe includes with it's programs.
The fonts Illustrator CS2 installs are:

Print listing for fonts NOT installed?

Is there an app that will let me print simple font samples for those not installed? I have a large library of fonts and I'd prefer not to install - that would be pretty time consuming. TIA.
BTW - I do have FAP but it only lets me print installed fonts.

You might want to search at www.versiontracker.com. I did a quick search using "print font" and found a few apps that look like they might work for what you want. Among them was http://www.versiontracker.com/dyn/moreinfo/macosx/18451

Barcode Font not available in PDF after adding to Font Management

Hello CF experts,
I need to use a barcode font in a PDF document. I installed
the font in Font Management, but nothing happens when I attempt to
use it. I've tried to use it both in and out of PDF's, and it
doesn't work either way. It does work in normal HTML code if the
local machine has the font installed, but this isn't very helpful,
as I need it to be served up from the Server with fontembed for PDF
usage.
Here is what the Font Manager shows:
User Defined Fonts
Actions Font Family Font Face Font Type Useable In Path
IDAutomationHC39M IDAutomationHC39M TRUETYPE PDF/FlashPaper
/var/www/html/MM/IDAutomationHC39M_Free.ttf
I've tried using it in <font> tags, CSS Styles, etc,
and nothing works.
Any ideas?
Thanks

Hey SafariTECH,
The Server is the source for any fonts used? This hasn't been
my experience at all. Web pages don't embed fonts, but rely on the
clients PC having the requested font face installed.
My problem is that I have a unique need for a Barcode font to
be available to clients without having to run around and install it
locally. In concept I should be able to embed the font in
Flashpaper or a PDF and bypass the need to make the font available
on each client's PC.
Is anyone successfully using the PDF "Font Embed" feature
this way using fonts installed in the Font Manager?
Is there any easy way to tell if the font's installed in Font
Manager are actually working and/or available?
Thanks-

Drastic slowdown on Macbook Pro quad core after the mighty Yosemite upgrade.

Is anyone @ Apple recognizing this issue after the Yosemite upgrade.. my laptop went from blazing fast webpage and software use to a slow turtle.. my pentium celeron is running faster than my current Apple laptop..

Youtube will buffer with 16gb memory.. the wife cuts of random.. all these issues after Yosemite.. what the deal Apple is there a fix or I need to go buy Maverick from the Apple store and re-install? I done have a back up.. I'll re-install and loose my data , no big deal.. but I refuse to run Yosemite with the power less than celeron laptop..

Why is my macbook pro running slow after os x yosemite upgrade

Why is my macbook pro running so slow after os x yosemite upgrade

Please describe the problem in as much relevant detail as possible. The better your description, the better the chance of a solution.
For example, if the computer is slow, which specific actions are slow? Is it slow all the time, or only sometimes? What other changes did you make, if any, just before it became slow? Have you seen any alerts or error messages? Have you done anything to try to fix it? Most importantly, do you have a current backup of all data? If the answer to the last question is "no," back up now. Ask if you need guidance. Do nothing else until you have a backup.

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.

Says a font is installed in Fontbook but it's not in my dropdown...

Hi,
Hope you're doing well.
I would like to use Helvetica Nueue and it's always been in my dropdown as far as I can remember.
I just tried to find it today and it wasn't there. I checked the Fontbook to make sure it wasn't disabled for some reason. It's still installed/active.
Does anyone know what is going on and/or how to resolve this?
If it's potentially relevant, I just made the upgrade from Tiger to Snow Leopard but all my files are still intact.
Thanks!

Oh how Apple has made your life hard, Helvetica Neue (reads as Helvetica "noy" if you're not German...)
Basically, they used a subset of Helvetica Neue as a system font, and made it next to impossible, without resorting to witchcraft, to use the entire font.
Also, don't confuse "installed" with "active". Fonts can be installed and not active.
If what you're used to seeing is not what you're seeing and you didn't change anything to cause that, you might consider cleaning your font cache, as that can lead to all sorts of font menu weirdness.

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!

HT1338 fonts not showing up properly after mountain lion install

https://www.evernote.com/shard/s4/sh/1d110186-9747-4a24-ba2d-bc662728339b/8f84c7 a73b0ac5f422c91df60e0c0aae
click link about to see how they show up. Does this on installed software; Itune; Skype, etc. All fonts are in installed; nothing uninstalled or disabled. during upgrade.
New MacBook Pro ( Jan 12 purchase ). Uninstalled and reinstalled Skype, didn't help. All web programs perform as expected.

It sounds like a small glitch in your Mountain Lion upgrade. If you're just done an in-place upgrade (not a clean install) these things can happen.
It sounds like you've found the workaround. But if you discover other problems with the upgrade, you should consider a clean install. Do a Google search on "clean install Mountain Lion" to find out how.

Fonts not installing in Leopard 10.5

I've just installed Leopard, no problems except that I can't get my 3rd-party fonts into Font Book. In fact Font Book has been playing up a lot. The first time I restarted after the install I noticed that one of the system fonts (possibly Helvetica) used by iCal and a few of the Widgets wasn't rendering correctly. I have had to delete the FontBook.db file and it's preferences .plist file which improved things a little.
However, when I try and drag font folders into Font Book it tends to just crash Font Book so I've only been able to install a fraction of my fonts. Note, these are all fonts that worked without any problems on Tiger 10.4.
Any help would be much appreciated.

One problem that Font Book is having in Leopard is dealing with the actual fonts found out in the wild. Not only are there thousands of different typefaces in circulation (many of them badly made), but it sometimes happens that one person's copy of a font has a specific corruption not shared by other copies. This seems to be at the root of the installation problems and crashes.
If Font Book is crashing when you try to install a font, even if you can get a solution to your prbolem here, file a bug and, if possible, include the font or a pointer to it. It speeds up bug fixing if the circumstances triggering the bug can be reproduced as exactly as possible, and the more people file bugs about a particular problem, the faster it's going to get fixed.

Fonts not installing?

I'm currently installing my fonts onto my new iMac. Everything seemed to be going straightforward and upon double clicking on the font and then installing said font, the font was then showing in Fontbook.
The problem is now, any fonts I try to install now are not being added at all. In 'User' within Fontbook I'm stuck at 191 fonts and unable to add anymore.

See Font Management in OS X for more details.
