Help! Numbers/Punctuation not displaying properly

For whatever reason, my numbers and punctuation marks are displaying as Greek or Arabic or something. Very frustrating. Does this with every font. Here is a screenshot using Helvetica Neue (the numbers are clearly not right, and the quotation marks are more like brackets).

HELP!

Quote marks are handled in the prefs under Dictionary and are set by language. I think the numerals, and decimal/thousands separators are also a language-specific setting, but not a preference item.
Have you checked to see what language is assigned to the text? Is it what you expected/intended?
You set the default language in the Character panel or Control panel with no text selected (set it with no doc open to be the default for new files), and you should also check the language assigned in your styles.

Contacts not displaying properly in video iPod, need help

My contacts do not display properly on my video iPod. The phone numbers sometimes have dashes and sometimes do not in the iPod but the phone numbers always have the dashes in my address book on my G4 desktop. Example: iPod 555 555 1212 or 5555551212 or 555-555-1212
address book 555-555-1212 (always has the dashes)
I want the Ipod to display the way it looks in the address book, always using the dashes. I am total type A and it drives me crazy when they are not all the same!
I have iTunes 7 on a MDD G4 running 10.4
Thanks!

hi,
By default Messages should grab info from the Address Card in the Contacts app even if the iCloud option is not checked (and then syncing with other computers and iOS devices that are also set to sync this way).
However the Contacts App does need to be opened and have the Preferences > Accounts checked to see it is using a Valid Account.
The Address Cards need to list iMessages and possibly AIM and Jabber ID info as well.
Next you need to check the View Menu in Messages.
The Buddy Name option only used to work in Buddy List but now seems to also effect the main Messages window. (So you can change it here to Handle, which is ID or Screen Name).
Lower down is the option to display Names, Pictures or Name and Pictures next to people in the Chats.

My vertical Spry is not displaying properly in IE 8

I am working on my first website using Dreamweaver CS4 and my spry is not displaying properly over my flash photo gallery. It looks ok in Firefox (although the borders are missing on my submenu for "sheds tool list") but in IE 8 the submenus can't be seen. How can I correct this?

Itunes 9 Store - Not Displaying Properly

I am having problems with the iTunes store not displaying properly. I can see the album art, but the background is black. I can not see any of the text and I can not see most of the blue play buttons. This all occurred after upgrading to Itunes 9. What options would I need to change in my anti-virus/security programs in order to potentially correct this issue. I really don't want to have to totally uninstall Itunes and reinstall everything. Help is appreciated.

I can see the album art, but the background is black. I can not see any of the text and I can not see most of the blue play buttons. This all occurred after upgrading to Itunes 9
Drgoo's suggestion from the following post might be worth trying with that:

Images not displayed properly

[Migrated from the Syclo Resource Center]
prashanthi_vangala   01/03/2012 06:44,
Hi,I am working on Agentry 5.4.0I have a list screen where for one of the columns I have a rule to display images ( I use checked and unchecked images ). Earlier the images were getting displayed properly on the ATE but it is not working now and I did not make any changes to the image properties then.But after this, I tried couple of things with the image properties to make it work, like when I do not use any mask colour the image does not get displayed but when i use any maks colour the image gets displayed but its completely blacked out ( and thus for checked image, cannot see the check mark and its completely blacked out ).I face same issue with the login image as well. I added a new Image ( Logo ) to my App for the login Screen, but even this image does not appear on the login screen.
I also tried deleting the Dev folder and re-publishing, but even this does not work.

Try deleting the Application directory under your development server where the images reside and publish again.
Completely clear your ATE and transmit again from scratch.
Also, what mask color are you using?
Try using a green hugh and not black or white for the mask.

prashanthi_vangala   01/03/2012 12:38
Hi Jason,Thank you for the reply.I already tried all the things you have mentioned, but the same issue exits still.
Prashanthi
Jason Latko   01/03/2012 12:40
Is it just the ATE, or do you have the same problems using the WIn32 or PPC clients?
Jason Latko - Senior Product Developer at Syclo
prashanthi_vangala   01/04/2012 06:21
Hi Jason,Behaviour in ATE:I have changed the image now and tested with the new image . Now, its behaving strangely:When I do a sync after publishing or a reset of ATE; I see the new image properly displayed on the screen but when I leave the screen and come back to the same screen again, the new image is getting replaced by the old image ( atleast the old image is not displayed properly, it appears like a black square box..and because of the same issue I had with this image I switched to the new image ). Behaviour in Win32 Client:When I tested with the client, I see the new image properly for the first time and when i leave the screen and come back the image disappears..This is the behaviour in client.
Please suggest.
-Prashanthi
Jason Latko   01/09/2012 11:35
Prashanthi,What did you use to create these images?
They are simple bitmaps I assume?
Try creating some very simple images using Microsoft Paint, then set a mask of green in Agentry.
Your problem sounds familiar, but I can't find a matching bug in our database.
Maybe someone else has experienced this?
You could also try upgrading to a newer version of Agentry to see if the problem goes away.
We are currently on version 6.0.4.Jason Latko - Senior Product Developer at Syclo
prashanthi_vangala   01/11/2012 10:02
Hi Jason,
Thank you for the reply.
But strangely, from past few days I see that the image is working fine again.
But kept this topic open because it was wierd, that the image is working correctly again without making any major change. What I did was to just write the rule again which calls the image ( though i did this before and did not work then but worked now ) and to observe the image behaviour for few days.But it seems like it is fine now.
Thanks and Regards,Prashanthi

The able code is present in the below path,

The images are present in the following path,

I am not thinking this is a Platform Beta 3 uptake issue. And I am suspecting an issue with integration of ilog with ADF. Any help in this regard would be helpful.

Ads are not displaying properly in Safari, v 4.0.5

I am having an odd problem with display ads from our local newspaper not displaying properly on my Mac Pro in Safari. I suspect that the issue might be related to having had some AdBlock app on my system a few months ago. I removed the app and some ads display, but others are just a white block with nothing inside. Is there any way to figure out why the content doesn't load?
The website is http://www.echopress.com
The ads I'm having issues with are the 300x250 ads in the right 3rd column, located directly below the weather info and above the "marketplace" ads.
Any ideas or troubleshooting tips?
Thanks,
Grady
Oh, why do I wanna see em in the first place? I'm an advertiser on the site and would like to see my own ads load occasionally.

Hey ho, Grady!
I can see all the ads on the right,
with the exception of the very top (first) box
which has the header of "Weather Alerts).
It's blank, and I'm assuming you have no alerts at the present.
All the rest of the paid for ads show.
So, what I would do is clear my Safari cache, history, and
in Preferences>Security, clear all the cookies from that site.
Hope this helps.
If you need more info just holler.
Let us know how you're doing, OK?

PDF not displaying properly in Acrotbat

Hi all,
I'm having an issue with a document I have created in Photoshop not displaying properly when opened in Acrobat. It is a brochure for my work, that I have worked on and printed many times. When I open it in Acrobat after creating the PDF, gaps appear and other elements are shifted out of place. When viewing it in Photoshop, those gaps are not there, even when I zoom in very close. When we open the file on other computers with Acrobat, the gaps are still there. To test the PDF further, I downloaded some free PDF viewers off the net and the document looks the way it was created, the way it should be. I don't know how to fix it and certainly don't want the gaps appearing when it goes to print. Any ideas on how to fix this? I've never previously had this problem. Thank you in advance for your help.
Leah

Without access to the files it's impossible for us to help. Acrobat will be displaying the PDF "correctly", but why the page contents are shifted is anyone's guess.
When you save as "Photoshop PDF" and choose the "Preserve Photoshop Editing Capabilities" option, it embeds a copy of the PSD file into the PDF and will open that whenever you try to open the PDF in Photoshop, which is why you don't get the import dialog. Photoshop never even reads the PDF page contents. Turn off that option, save to PDF again, and then open it in Photoshop - you'll see the true PDF page being imported as a graphic, and it'll match what Acrobat is displaying.

Some websites do not display properly or function

Using Firefox v29.0.1; running Win 7 Pro 64-bit version.
Some websites do not display properly - as if Firefox is not finding the CSS (Facebook for one).
Also, on Craig's List, I can't click on any of the links including the contact/reply button.
Wanted to attach screenshots but see no place to do so.
Thanks,

Looks like something in my history must have been causing it.
That's the only step I needed to go through and seems as though everything has cleared up - for now.
Thanks Phillipp for your help!

Fonts Will Not Display Properly In Mail

Messages that I am receving in Mail will not display properly. All characters are represented with square with the letter A. I attached a screen shot.
I changed the default fonts to many different options and nothing has worked.
Any help would be great.

Open up Font Book and validate your fonts. You may have a corrupt font or corrupt font database.

Colours of imported postscript not displayed properly in illustrator

Hi,
I produced a colour map and colour gradient legend as a postscript file (.ps) using generic mapping tools software running under linux. When I import this file into illustrator (in windows 8) the colour map is fine, but the colour gradient does not display properly. It appears as a bunch of white spaces and vertical colour bands of random colour. When I then try to export the file as a .pdf the colour gradient appears as solid blue. I've also tried producing a .pdf instead of .ps but it makes no difference.
It's worth noting that I have done this in the past with no problems. This particular problem first occurred a few months ago and is now persistent.
Any help or suggestions are appreciated.

There are no import options to change in Illustrator to make it work. Usually I argue against using Illustrator as a general purpose PDF editor, but since it seems to be your only option here it is better than nothing (i.e., what you got from Illy itself).
It's worth noting that I have done this in the past with no problems. This particular problem first occurred a few months ago and is now persistent.
The problem is that the color bar is a 4-bit color image. Did that recently change with an update of your mapping software? Open one of your Illy files that were okay and check the color bar -- is it vector or bitmap? If it's a bitmap, can you "edit" it with Photoshop? (It's not a good day to be an Adobe spokesperson: much to my surprise, Top Market best Seller Photoshop cannot edit 4-bit color images!)
Let's talk Versions as well. I distilled with Distiller 9, but it seems that is not the magic solution (as you already see that it worked). Both Illustrator and InDesign: CS4. Platform: Windows 7.
That combo works for me.
A minor -- relatively unrelated -- note:
garthboy9999 wrote:
I also tried to import the .ps file into indesign (which I've never used before), as you suggest, but I got an error about the program not being able to recognize the file format (maybe a plugin missing?).
No, that indicates you attempted to "open" your ps. You must create a new document first, then use "Place" -- Adobe's terminology for what every other program on the planet calls "Import". It's relatively inconsequential, because either failure or success with InDesign doesn't mean that much; I only included it to point out another blatant unnecessary difference between the two programs.

Pages not displaying properly in Publisher instances as we activated the page from Author

HI All,
Pages not displaying properly in Publisher instances as we activated the page from Author. In author it is working well but in Pulisher it is showing first 2 lines of the page and then showing error as
Apache sling/2.2 Hot Spot ****** Sun OS error
Please help me on this.IS this issue with the templates or components are we using?

Ok, then let's go the long way and try to reduce the number of possible root causes:
1) Is your problem reproducible on this publish? (I suppose it is)
2) Is it reproducible on other publishs as well, which have received the same page with the same application?
3) Can you reproduce it on other replicated pages as well?
4) When you upload a page to such an affected publish via a content package, does this page render correctly?
5) Does this problem appear on other environments as well?
6) Do you use dispatcher when you get this result? Or do you get it when you request the page directly of CQ5?
7) What's the HTTP statuscode when you render this page? You can see it in the request.log of CQ5.
If you change logging via Felix Console, you don't need to restart the instance.
kind regards,
Jörg

Fonts not displaying properly (square symbols)

I'm trying to troubleshoot an error in a 3rd party vendor's java applet where fonts are not displaying properly. It seems as though when the arial bold font is used, it does not display from a particular computer. (this is a company terminal server, by the way).
To illustrate what I mean, I've posted links to small images showing a working example from another machine:
http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v317/d0hboy/font_problem_working.gif
.. and a non-working example:
http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v317/d0hboy/font_problem_error.gif
(apologies, I don't know how to include images in this forum).
Vendor support can only provide support so far as requiring a certain version of a JRE is installed -- after that, it's up to me. I've tried comparing the two JRE/lib/Fonts directories and Windows regional settings but they are the same. I've also tried setting the Sun Java console trace level to DEBUG while Internet Explorer is running the applet.
Is there any where I can look to find out what font is missing, or whether the "JavaFontNotFound" exception is firing? Any help or pointers would be appreciated.

Make sure that you're using the correct font. Arial Bold does not provide full Unicode support. Thsi webpage may assist you:

OLE Objects are not displayed properly-overlap characters and empty page

I'm using CR4E 12 Runtime libraries to load and view reports that are created in CR designer v10. Some of the OLE Objects (not all) are not displayed properly.
1) A full page contains terms and conditions as ole object is not at all displayed and just shown as black image.
2) Some data in a table (OLE Object) shown as overlapped characters.
Any body know the reason and is there any workaround to solve this issue?
Thankyou very much for your time.

Your problem seems to be with the character encoding you are using for your text. A quick google search for ColdFusion character encoding should turn up the answer. In case you are interested in learning more:

Webfont not displaying properly in design mode or appearing in font list

Just updated Muse and now my heading webfont (Nunito) is not displaying properly in design mode or appearing in the font list. It is, however, displaying properly in preview mode. When I try and delete the font and then add it again I get an error message that says the font can't be added. Any idea what's going on?

Hello,
Please try the steps below. Hopefully this will fix the problem.
1. Close Muse
2. Rename the folders named tk1 and tk2 in the following locations
On Windows: %appdata%\com.adobe.AdobeMuseCC.2014.2\Local Store. You can type this in the Path bar at the top of the Windows Explorer window
On Mac: ~/Library/Preferences/com.adobe.AdobeMuseCC.2014.2/Local Store. You can type this in the Go To Folder dialog (Shift+Command+G)
3. Launch Muse and add the font again
Please let me know if that helps.

Vivek

French special characters not displayed properly in discoverer 11g

Gurus
We are upgrading to discoverer 11.1.1.3
I have found that French special characters (letters with accents) are not displayed properly in the discoverer tool menu.
Example
Sélectionner is displayed as S?lectionner.
This doesn't seem to be a server issue as one of the tester (in U.S) is able to see the french characters displayed and ironically it is not the case in France itself where this is required.
Please help
Regards
Ariv

Pl post details of the two clients being used in this scenario - the exact OS version, browser version, browser language settings, Java version etc
Since the accented character shows on one client , the issue is with the client or the settings on the client where the accented character is not showing correctly.
