Having trouble fading text

Hi,
I'm trying to fade text from top to bottom using a path I have always followed, but isn't working now:
1. Select the layer the text is on
2. Create Fill or Adjustment Layer > select Gradient from the drop-down menu
3. Click on the Gradient bar to bring up the options
4. Adjust opacity, direction, colour > OK
When I create the Fill or Adjustment layer and select Gradient, the gradient is applied to the whole document rather than just the text on the layer I've selected.
My text is white against a blue background and I'd like it to fade out as in the attached picture. I have tried selecting the gradient "Foreground to Transparent", but can't get past the stage where that is applied to the whole document.
Can anyone suggest what's going wrong?
Thanks,
Andrew

I don't know whether you have a scan/photo of text or are using a Type layer. You could use a Layer Style Gradient Overlay on a Type layer. The example shows a white transparency gradient. Notice the Type layer's Fill is zero percent.

julie@remax,
I know that this would concern me just the same and we want to make sure that your device is connected and receiving these notifications when available. How long have you been having this issue? Are you receiving a specific error message when sending a message? Are you aware if this happens in one location specifically or everywhere you go? Does the issue with messaging occur with all numbers? Share some details, so that we may assist.

On each devoce Look at
Settings > Messages > Send and receive from
Make sure these settings are correct.
Then look at MMS in the same area. Male sure MMS is turned on and check to ensure your carrier included MMS in your cellular plan.

How do I know if my mouse is bad? I'm having trouble highlighting text with my mouse, model A1152

How do I know if my mouse needs to be replaced or if it something else? I am having increasing trouble highlighting text, it either won't hold the highlighting, or it won't highlight . . . making it impossible to create a link in my emails, to delete text, or copy and paste.
I have an iMac that is about 4 years old and the mouse that came with it uses a USB port to connect.
Thanks for any information or suggestions.

Is it one of those with a little moving/rotating ball on the bottom of it? Have you ever taken that out and cleaned it and the area holding it? It could be dust/dirt in there. I always used a QTip slightly moistened with alcohol.

I am having trouble with texting out. I can receive but cannot send. Any advice? Carrier is ok.

Having trouble receiving texts

I am an iPhone fanboy I will admit but the recent occurrence possible missing texts is causing me to question my Apple Preference. I seem to be having the most trouble receiving texts from Verizon customers as a friend the other day inquired as to why I never respond to his texts. I fear the answer is because I do not get them in the first place.
Is anyone experiencing any similar problems?
Any help would be wonderful, thanks.

I had a similar problem with pics from Verizon customers.
The person sending me the pics updated his Verizon software and all was fine.

Why am I having trouble receiving text messages from only some people

I have turned off my imessaging and only some of my contacts are having trouble sending messages to me when they have imessage turned on. They receive a message that says Not Delivered. Why am I having this issue with only some of my contacts? How can I fix this?

Hi,
I was quite specific about which .plist to delete as if you have no other issues it is pointless deleting the AIM or Subnet (Bonjour) or Yahoo ones as they will not effect the Jabber logins.
Deleting the LLSharing list one only removes items from the Recent Lists in the File menu > Recent Items.
The Status Messages one only deletes the Saved Status Messages you may have made for Buddy lists.
Deleting com.apple.ichat.plist itself mostly messes up your Preferences and some menu choices.
Try deleting com.apple.imagent.plist as this is involved with logging in the Accounts to the various servers.

I am having trouble receiving text messages after iOS7 update; anyone else know how to resolve this?

Before installing 7 I had no problem receiving text messages; now I am not receiving some people's messages unless I have my data turned on or wifi. Does anyone know how to fix this?

I am having similar issues with my iphone 4S that didn't exist before I did the iOS7 update. The senders of the imessages believe their message was sent successfully however I may not receive it for minutes-days.
In my case (and probably yours), its' definitely an iOS7 problem rather than a carrier problem as it was never an issue before the update.
Two temporay ways to resolve the issue that I've found (though not cures) are:
1) double tap the home button and close messages from running in backgorund. restart messages and the screen freezes for a 10-30 seconds and a rush of messages may arrive shortly.
or
2) intermittently do a soft reset on your phone (holding home button and lock button down for 10 seconds until apple logo appear). When the phone restarts I get a rush of imessages that I should have received.
Hopefully Apple will recognise and resolve this issue. I'm feeling the same frustration as you are.

Having trouble linking text boxes in Pages on iMac

I can't seem to link text boxes so that text flows from one to another. Has the process in Pages changed in the new update? Any advice? Thanks!

All versions of Pages v5 have omitted the ability to link Text boxes.

Having trouble saving text from Arabic-script PDFs

I have several PDFs created using different versions of the PDF format with text that uses the Arabic script (i.e. Arabic, Farsi, etc.) All I need is to save the text properly into something like a Unicode text file, an RTF or a DOC file, or something similar. I use Adobe Acrobat Std ver 7 and often get error messages or the text that is saved is corrupted. What components/fonts/software/etc do I need to install on my machine to do this properly? While the operation that I need - "Save as ..." - is pretty basic, the variety of PDF documents I have is pretty wide in terms of when and how they were created, what languages they contain etc. Thanks!

Bil,
Thanks for the info. I actually did observe exactly that in a couple of cases, i.e. "copy & paste" worked when "save as" did not. Do you know what is fundamentally different between these two operations? Also, if I am willing to lose all formatting and just get pure text (I am thinking of "pure text" as a UTF8 or UTF16 byte stream), does this make my life any easier? Finally, how can I find out which font I have problems with when I "save as" and get garbage? E.g. if I open the PDF file in a text editor, where is the detailed font info?

Here's a screenshot showing how to use a couple of Build Array functions to suit your purposes. I think you should take a look at some of the LabVIEW array examples to get a better handle on how to deal with array dimensions and building arrays.

Having trouble deleting text from pdf

Hi.
I'm new to using Adobe Acrobat. I've just donwloaded Adobe Acrobat 9 Pro and I'm trying to delete a sentence from a document. I've managed to draw a box around the text but I'm pressing the delete key and the backspace key but it won't delete the text, just the box. I'm using Windows Vista.
Hope you can help me with this.
