Geometry angle symbol, can it be typed? which font or keyboard character?

How do I type the angle symbol   /_  (roughly) on a Mac? Is it a font I need or a keyboard character?

In the app you are in click on the space where you want the charter then click the edit menu then select special characters then select math in the left of the window the find the symbol and click on it to insert.  http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?path=Mac/10.4/en/mh1064.html

  • How can I find which font is used inside a PNG?

    Hi,
    When I started my company, I had a company logo and website designed for me by another company.  This company doesn't exist anymore and all I have left are the source files of my logo and website.  They delivered me the logo in PNG format.  I am trying to make different sizes and shapes of my logo, but when I open the PNG file in Fireworks (CS5), it says that the font is missing, so whether I want to replace the font or keep appearance.  How can I find out which font was used in the original PNG file?  When I select the text, the font selection box is empty, so I cannot see which font was originally used...
    Thx,
    Steven

    Hi Linda,
    I tried it and you are right.  I kept trying to preserve the appearance.  Never tried the replace fonts option! 
    Thank you very much for your help!!

  • Which **** font is scrambling in Entourage?

    Hi,
    I was using an old version of Microsoft Office (2001) on MacOs X 10.3.9 and recently upgraded to version 2004. As a result, a lot of the Office fonts seem to have been double-installed: I have duplicates of things like Trebuchet, Verdana, Arial, etc. (all the default Windows fonts, it seems).
    This morning, while trying to solve a different problem, I resolved the duplicates of all my fonts using FontBook. Now, when I open Entourage (part of Office 2004), the fonts in some bits of the interface are scrambled.
    I've tried switching all of the Windows-style fonts I can think of back on in FontBook, and thinking to **** with the duplicates, but this has not solved the problem.
    Do I have to plod through all of my disabled fonts one by one to find the one Entourage is trying to use, or can someone tell me which font(s) to enable to stop the Entourage interface screwing up? It's the interface, not the display fonts (playing with the display fonts in the Entourage preferences doesn't seem to help).
    BTW this doesn't seem to happen with other OS apps, or even other Office apps. The strangest part is that the fonts in the Entourage splash screen are screwed, whereas the fonts in the other Office application splash screens aren't.
    Thanks for any help,

    Don't just resolve the conflicts in Font Book, look in the various Fonts folders and remove any duplicate fonts. The locations are:
    /System/Library/Fonts/
    /Library/Fonts/
    ~/Library/Fonts/ (the Fonts folder in your home user folder)
    There shouldn't be any in the /System/Library/Fonts/ folder. But if there are, remove those first. You will need to use your administrative password to remove fonts from that folder. DO NOT remove everything from this folder. Some of the fonts in the /System/Library/Fonts/ folder are critical to OS X. If you empty that folder, OS X will not run and your Mac will not boot. Remove only those fonts that are duplicates of same name fonts in the other two Fonts folders.
    Not sure what you mean by "Windows-style fonts". Mac versions of Office don't install PC TrueType fonts.
    Once you have removed all duplicates from the Fonts folders, delete the Office font cache. It's in the Preferences folder of your user account in a sub folder named Microsoft. Remove the file "Office Font Cache (11)".
    Launch Entourage and see if things are working correctly. If not remove Entourage from the hard drive and reinstall from the original CD. If that still doesn't help, then clean the system font caches with Font Finagler.
    Edit: Yeah, and what Tom said.

  • How can the words typed in a cell flow naturally into the following pages?

    Pages can make beautiful document which is very good. However,
    1. The words that I type into a cell of a Table inside Pages cannot flow naturally onto the next page, it will disappear at the end and I am very frustrated. I need to create another Table on next page and continue my typing , it is a silly way and it is also hard to edit the document afterwards.
    2. I cannot adjust the spacing into 1.5 between lines while typing in a Table, this is the format my University requested.
    3. The words in a table just "stick" too close to the left and right side Borders.
    4. Apple emphaseses the iWork can compomise with MS office. For pure words doc it is OK. But when there is a transition of a Chart or Table, it messes up !
    Since I cannot do the above 1 and 2 with Pages, I need to move back to my old PC. When I finished typing and transfered that Word doc into Pages, again the words at the end of a table after one page all disappeared. Silly!
    I have downloaded a latest version of iWork 9.0.4 or 9.1 , the web developer said the issues of Table in iWork were fixed. However, it seems not !
    I have check similar questions but I cannot get my answer, If anyone knows the answer, please let me know? I need to hand in my dissertation in one month, and I do not want to waste anymore time on the sofeware issue.
    Many many thanks.

    This feature was described many times.
    I don't know why you are assuming that text embedded in a cell is supposed to "flow naturally".
    The app behave the way it was designed to do and in this design a cell can't cross pages boundaries.
    2. I cannot adjust the spacing into 1.5 between lines while typing in a Table, this is the format my University requested.
    3. The words in a table just "stick" too close to the left and right side Borders.
    It seems that you missed something because in cells we may adjust line spacing and internal margin as we want.
    4. Apple emphaseses the iWork can compomise with MS office. For pure words doc it is OK. But when there is a transition of a Chart or Table, it messes up !
    As far as I know, Apple just write that :
    we may open, save, and email Microsoft Word files from within Pages.
    we may open, save, and email Microsoft Excel files from within Numbers.
    we may open, save, and email Microsoft Powerpoint files from within Keynote.
    It doesn't state that every attribute or feature will be kept.

  • HT1338 HOW CAN I FIND OUT WHICH SERVER MY MAC IS USING?

    HOW CAN I FIND OUT WHICH SERVER MY MAC IS USING, KEEP GETTING MICROSOFT SQL SERVER ERRORS
    WHEN TYPING IN ADDRESS'S?

    If your computer is tied to a network, then there is a way to check. Go to System Preferences, and click Accounts. unlock Admin
    then you can click Login Options.
    under that, Network Account Server. This should show you what server your computer is tied to. If you aren't in the tech department, you could try asking them.

  • My keyboard on my computer keeps switching to using symbols as I'm typing.

    My keyboard on my computer keeps switching to using symbols as I'm typing. I've gone through and changed/reset/etc the keyboard, text, and language settings. I've tried to figure out if a key is stuck, but couldn't find one. I've disabled function keys to check if that affects anything, it does not. The keys will eventually, spontaneously switch back to normal (with or without my troubleshooting). It keeps switching back and forth without rhyme or reason. I eventually linked a wireless keyboard, which types correctly- even when my computer keyboard does not- so I figure it must be a technical malfunction of somekind. Using this other keyboard permanently would be fine, except it is not my own and I am traveling abroad while working from my computer.
    Please help guide me to a solution!
    Thanks!

    You may just have to take it into your local Apple Store and have them run diagnostics. Some applications will let you type diacritical marks if you hold down, for example, the a and e keys, but that doesn't seem if that's what you're experiencing.
    If you've already fooled around with Language & test, Input Sources, etc., then it's likely a hardware malfunction.

  • Is there some software which shows, as you're typing, which catergories your words fall into; verbs, nouns etc.?

    Is there some software which shows, as you're typing, which catergories your words fall into; verbs, nouns etc.?
    Preferably it'd be some sort of extension so I can use this in a normal already in use applications such as TextEdit or Mail.
    So what I'm after is some, say colouring labelling, of words as I type to tell me what type of word they are (verb, noun, etc.).
    Thanks.

    Unfortunately, many carriers "drag their feet" when it comes to processing iPhone unlock requests. All Apple does is add the phone's IMEI number to the officially unlocked database, and Apple does this immediately. The breakdown is with your carrier.
    You can call AppleCare, they'll be able to tell you whether the IMEI number is in the database or not.

  • I want to update my phone, but i purchased many apps and music on the phone. it won't let me authorize my computer so i cannot update. i don't want to deauthorize all my computers. how can i find out which 5 computers i have authorized?

    i want to update my phone, but i purchased many apps and music on the phone. it won't let me authorize my computer so i cannot update. i don't want to deauthorize all my computers. how can i find out which 5 computers i have authorized? also how can i update the software?

    This is a tedious solution, which is stupid!  And some users report an inability to reauthorize a computer after an "en masse” deauthorization.  I can’t believe Apple doesn’t provide a list or menu to find out which computers you’ve authorized! Obviously, APPLE knows (or else they couldn’t tell us how many computers we have authorized)--so why can’t they give us access to that information about our own computers??!!!
    And for an already-authorized computer with a hard drive that’s since been replaced and upgraded from Mavericks to Yosemite, would it be recognized as a “new computer” and require authorization? Would its previous incarnation (i.e., with the old hard drive and OS) be considered a separate computer? Some users report they can’t authorize a computer after an OS upgrade because of that. Can’t believe we have to do such a bass-ackwards kludge!

  • How can I import songs which are filed basis one album/compilation as one folder?

    How can I import songs which are filed basis one album/compilation as one folder?
    i can drag and drop one folder which is a proper album into itunes under playlist. if i drag and drop two proper albums into itunes it is also ok but if itunes does not know my own compliations and i drag and rop my 3000 folders in one shot into itunes i get only one playlist containing all songs.
    pleased to hear if anybody know how i can avoid to do 3000 times drag and drop a folder into itunes.
    rgds, alexander

    Before you begin the import, edit the properties of the tracks to set the Album Artist to Various Artists and Part of a Compilation to Yes.

  • I share an itunes account with 3 users. How can I find out which person downloaded a certain app?

    I share an itunes account with 3 users. How can I find out which person downloaded a certain app?

    Agile,
    Any of the above will work, depending how you would like to set it up.
    Given that kids tend to eventually grow up and be independent, the best long term answer for most people is to let her have her own account and her own library as soon as she can handle it.  Keep in mind that content purchased from the iTunes Store is permanently tied to the account from which it was originally purchased, so separating later is a challenge.
    If you want to sync multiple devices to the same library, that will work.  Or if you want separate libraries (as I would recommend), they can be either on separate computers or on separate Windows user accounts on the same PC.
    For the name change:  Connect the device.  When the name appears in the left sidebar of iTunes, highlight it and change it.

  • HT4597 Can I just choose which apps or photos to sync via iCloud since I don't want all of them in all my devices?  I have all photos & apps in my iMac but only sync manually some of them to my iPad and to my iPhone. Can I still do this with iCloud?

    I have 3 Apple devices - iMac, iPhone, and iPad.  I am planning to move to iCloud from MobileMe.  In iTunes, I just choose to sync whatever files I want my iPhone and iPad to have since they don't have sufficient disk space as my iMac. 
    Can I just choose which apps or photos to sync via iCloud since I don't want all of them in my iPhone and iPad?  I have all photos & apps in my iMac but only sync manually some of them to my iPad and to my iPhone. Can I still do this with iCloud?
    Calendars, emails, contacts, are fine since files are small.  What I'm afraid of are the apps and photos.
    Any reply will be appreciated.
    Thanks.

    With the exception of photo stream, iCloud doesn't sync your apps or photos between devices. You will continue to sync this content via iTunes in the same way as you do now.
    Photo stream allows you to sync your most recent photos between all devices, you have the option to use photostream or not.

  • How can I find out which .pst or .ost file itunes referres to when synchronising with outlook

    I´ve switched to iphone 4S from my 3Gs and would like to "clean" my itunes Sync before I use the new phone. Problem is, that the synchronisation with Outlook 2003 doesn´t work anymore. I guess the reason is that itunes refers to an old .ost or .pst file on my computer. I ve got several outlook profiles and changed from exchange to pop3. My question: How can I find out which .pst or .ost file itunes referres to?
    Thanks a lot in advance :-)

    Select the tune and then - Get Info - in the dialog box is a note of the Apple ID used to purchase.

    Many thanks JEM24 for your help.  Ive just spent the best part of six hundred pounds on a new Sony Rx100m2 compact camera, so I have no interest in the Ipods camera at all really. I doubt Ill be watching many videos on it as Im very lucky in that I have a good Android tablet. Its more as a stock music player that Ill be buying the Ipod for, if indeed I do end up buying one. I dont like the idea of paying the exorbitant amount added for more memory space that Apple along with most other companies charge. In fact I read an article on this very subject just yesterday in the tech section of Flipboard. It stated in the article that in the case of the Iphone  the actual cost of each additional  gigabyte of storage  to Apple et al is something in the order of 60p.. This is certainly not reflected in the price us the customer has to pay at the till.. Its for this reason primarily that Apple in particular, because their products do not allow adding expandable memory of your own in the form of cheap to buy cards, that nobody in their right mind buys the 64gig etc Iphones..I am aware that we are discussing my potential purchase of an Ipod Touch here but you see my point. Many thanks again though for helping me.
