ID CS6: Character pallet and all type options appear frozen

Windows 7. Yes, I selected the text. My CS5.5 document would freeze the select tool, etc so I cleared the presets and the cache. The 5.5 doc had a font not recognized by CS 6. To get around this, I decided to recreate the doc with the Arial font in CS6. Creating a totally new doc, I am unable to change the typeface, point size, etc using the type bar or the character pallet. I can make changes using the "Type" option pulldown. All of this works fine in AI & PS, just not ID. Ideas?

Could be this: InDesign tools and panels don't respond to mouse clicks (Windows 7/Vista)

Turned off Faces and all map options disappeared

I was working on a brand new Aperture 3 Large size "Stock Book". I had about 300 pictures arranged on about 70 pages. I don't need/use the Faces option so, at one point today, I turned it off in the Aperture preferences. This caused my book to loose all of my picture placements and it's now blank, I believe, because the first page was a map. Now none of the map options appear in the page layout options and it's grayed-out in the Edit Layout option to add a map box. I've turned the Faces option back on, but there are still no options to add maps to my book nor any new book. Anyone know how to get the map options back in the books? Places is working fine for re-assigning all my manual locations since Aperture 3 is ignoring all my previously manually place-tagged iPhoto pictures when I import them.
-Doug

I've switched between every size and format and no map options appear in any of them (for any user). The map disappeared out of the first book I was working on without changing the size or style after turning off Faces. Disabling Faces was the only thing I changed. All I'm doing with Aperture is creating this one book (so far). On my iMac at work (where I was testing Aperture 3 Trial before installing the purchased copy on my MacBook) I can select a "Large" size "Photo Essay" style book and the maps are available as options on prepared layouts and I can add a map. On my MacBook the maps do not appear.

Recently bought a new computer and all my music appears in iTunes as well as on my computer in a saved folder. When I try to play the music in iTunes I get an error that reads"the song could not be used because the original file could not be found."

Recently bought a new computer and all my music appears in iTunes as well as on my computer in a saved folder. When I try to play the music in iTunes I get an error that reads"the song could not be used because the original file could not be found. Would you like to locate it?" Hope you can help me solve this issue.
Thanks,

This happens if the file is no longer where iTunes expects to find it. Possible causes are that you or some third party tool has moved, renamed or deleted the file, or that the drive it lives on has had a change of drive letter. It is also possible that iTunes has changed from expecting the files to be in the pre-iTunes 9 layout to post-iTunes 9 layout, or vice-versa, and so is looking in slightly the wrong place.
Select a track with an exclamation mark, use Ctrl-I to get info, then cancel when asked to try to locate the track. Look on the summary tab for the location that iTunes thinks the file should be. Now take a look around your hard drive(s). Hopefully you can locate the track in question. If a section of your library has simply been moved, or a drive letter has changed, it should be possible to reverse the actions.
Alternatively, as long as you can find a location holding the missing files, then you should be able to use my FindTracks script to reconnect them to iTunes .

I have Photoshop Elements 10 on a Mac. Adobe offered me an update to version 13. So I ordered. And every download option is Windows which is worthless to me. So unless i get a quick solution to convert to a Mac upgrade, i will cancel the purchase via credit card.

HT3819 I have synced my ipad and iphone 5 to itunes and all my songs appear in the device library but i cannot ply all of the songs unless via home sharing. How can i ensure that my libraries appear on each device as the syncing process seems to be failin

Syncing problems.
How can I sync my iphone 5 and ipad to ensure that i dont need to use home sharing to access all of my music library?

I don't think I have made myself clear... I have recently upgraded my iPhone 4 to a 5 so everything was set up to sync with no problems at all. I transferred everything across to my new device by iCloud and everything appears as it was on my old device including on the face of it my music library. However, I cannot play all of the songs in fact the majority! When at home I can access the entire library via home sharing but that is no use away from the house. I never had this problem with iPhone 4 and although I am automatically syncing the device to iTunes it is not working. If I try to play songs via the device it skips until it finds a song that cAn be played and if I try and play the device via the laptop/iTunes an ! Type signal appears and I cannot play the song!
Any ideas re solutions would be appreciated???

Airplay, Mavericks, and Mac Pro; Option appears but screen is blank?

Upgrading my Mac Pro to Mavericks, I was surprised to see in the displays panel the option to enable AirPlay video to my AppleTV.
But while the option appears and I can select either desktop extenion or mirroring, the AppleTV just goes black.
Has anyone had success using this feature on an older Mac Pro since the update?

My airplay icon has disappeared totally, and i have stuttering video/audio

TS3274 I use to be able to shut down apps as to not kill my battery by pushing the button twice and all apps running appeared at the bottom of the screen. Then i could turn each one off at a time. Now how do I do that with the IO7?

Before IO7, I would control the life of my battery by shutting down the apps. I would push the main button on the front twice and all apps that were running in the back ground would appear on the bottom of the screen. I could click on each one to shut it down. Now, I can't seem to figure out how to shut them down. Please help if anyone knows what to do.

Close inactive apps
1. Double tap the home button to bring up the multi-tasking view
2. Swipe the app's windows upwards to close
3. The app will fly off the screen

Can't reset my systeem admin account and all startpunt options respons with a grey screen, lock and line for password

i bought a 2nd hand iMac 21'5, 2010. First I installed Mavericks and entered a password which I forgot, and did not activate my appleid at that time.
when trying to install a new bought program, I had to enter the sys adm acoount password which I had forgotten.
TRied the options found on internet, but did not have a mavericks startup disk. downloaded Mavericks again and then tried to creatie a startpunt disk. did not work as mavericks immediately started with the installation.
Got the original Mac os X cd from the person I brought the iMac from, but now found that I cannot use the CMD r option. then my Mac opens with a grey screen, a lock and only allow a password input.
None of the startup options (eg d) are working anymore and or end up in the grey startup screen asking a password or just ingenomen the request and starts the Mac and is fully operational without full access to the systeem functions (as these require the systeem password which I forgotten). However my Mac still starts and I use mail and internet Ans all other installed programs. but I cannot create an account as I do not know the sys adm. password.
When using terminal and give the command mountain -uw / I receive the reply:
GetMasterBlock: Error 13 opening /dec/rdisk0s2
mount-hfs: Operation not permitted.
CAn somebody help me how to reset my system, even if this means I loose all data? I bought all software in the iStore, so asume I can re-install it anyway.

Ask the person you bought it from for the firmware password and supply that into the box. You'll then be able to use the Option key shortcut and can get into the recovery partition to reset the administrator password.

Need help with magic trackpad. some touch functions stopped working. battery full and all touch options checked appropriately. whats the deal?

i have tried everything but the tap functions stopped working. any ideas?

Update: I mucked about more after making this post; I installed gnome-alsa-mixer and checked the "internal mic" option and "Auto-Mute mode" (both were off), after this my headphone output works again, and does the built-in microphone (!)
I have no idea how I ended up in this "broken" situation, or even what this option does, or how to use it without gnome-alsa-mixer (I had to install 15 packages to get this, as I normally don't use gnome)... Sound on Linux still seems no better than when I started using it 15 years ago :-( (I spent about 5 hours on this...)

IWeb window won't load - and all menu options are greyed-out

I've used iWeb before (with a web site set-up), but I tried to open it today and the iweb screen would not open. The program menubar loads, but almost everything,including New Page and New Site are greyed out.
I checked my ME account and it is active and working.
Not sure what the problem is here - any ideas?

Hi, I had the same problem!
After one evening of pulling my hair out, I tried the following:
1. Located the 'domain' file (or package). In my case at /*user/Library/Application Support/iWeb.
2. moved the domain file to the desktop (or somewhere else)
3. Started iWeb. I got the warning that iWeb needed a domain file in order to operate, and I confirmed that I wanted the program to create a new one for me.
4. iWeb started as normal, but with no contents. I closed iWeb.
5. I ctrl-clicked the original domain file on my desktop, and selected 'show package contents'.
6. I ctrl-clicked the new, empty domain file in the Application Support/iWeb directory, and selected 'show package contents'.
7. I deleted everything in the new, empty domain package file.
8. And finally copied the contents from the old (seemingly corrupt) package file into the new one.
9. Hooooray! iWeb started with the old contents intact!

The Character Pallett repeatedly opens on its own and crashes

Starting this morning I am being driven crazy by the Character Pallett launching unexpectedly on its own and then crashing almost immediately. Then it attempts to launch again, flashes briefly on screen, and crashes again. My crash log shows the same repeated process.[Terminating app due to uncaught exception 'NSInternalInconsistencyException', reason: 'Invalid parameter not satisfying: (index >= 0) && (index < [_itemArray count])']
It's pretty impossible to get anything done. I tried reinstalling OSX combo 1.6.8, but the installer would not see my startup drive as being eligable; I then reinstalled Snow Leopard 10.6 and attempted to update to 10.6.8 that way. But this attempt lead to an error that cancled the install. So now I am running 10,6, but with many apps that require 10.6.8. And the Character Pallett keeps poping up and then crashing even with 10.6. I'm beginning to think it may be a hardware problem, either ram or logic board issue; but I lack the diagnostic skills to figure it out.
I thought of trying to launch the Character Pallett on purpose, but when I open the System Preferences and click the box that would place the Keybaord icon in the menu bar (which is the only way I know to get to the Character Pallett) the icon doesn't appear. The check mark doesn't even stick.
And help would be greatly appreciated.

Where I am so far:
1. First I should correct the term I was using. It's tje "Character Viewer" and not the Character Pallett. To access the viewer one normally opens System Prefs>Keyboard and clicks on the box saying Show Keyboard and Character Viewer in Menu Bar. Once in the menu bar, one can access the viewer via a pop down menue item. But I did not have the Keyboard in the menu bar and the viedwer was poping open on its own. I couldn't even get the keyboard menu to appear in the menu.
2. I took the advice received so far and booted into Safe Mode, trashed the plist item. The viewer popped open on its own still, but did not immediately crash. I could click on the red window controller and close the window. In safe mode I could get the keyboard menu to appear and could select the Character Viewer.
3. I removed off all my log in items—the only odd thing I noticed was the duplication of iTunes helper. At this point I still could not upgrade from 10.6 to 10.6.8 via the combo updater. So I rebooted normally, but with no log in items. The System Pref for showing the keyboard menu item still did not work. Nor could I upgrade to 10.6.8 with the combo updater. I also tried update just to 10.6.1, but got the same Installer error. But the Character Viewer popup/crash is gone, but so to is access to all the iLife apps that require 10.6.8. iTunes, for example cannot see my iPhone or iPad when they are plugged in via usb.
So I guess I should thank yuou guys for your help andnow post a new question about not being able to upgrade Snow Leopard. Perhaps there's already been a similar problem posted.

CS6 Brushes look and behave oddly?

Hey guys, I hope you can help me out here, I'm new to CS6 and I need it for my digital art.
Basically a couple of days ago I went back to CS6 for some personal art project, and when I tried to use a brush, I thought it looked a bit strange, so I tried a default brush, and this is how it looked-http://i.imgur.com/UphQ8yP.jpg
Basically, there you can see a selection of default brushes, and how some of them appear like just small circles, rather than a smooth, hard round default brush like they should. The second one is the one highlighted in the window.
I have no idea what to do, and when I use other brushes with my Wacom Bamboo they too look just a bit less effective than they used to
I have tried asking others, to no avail. I don't want to reinstall, I have a lot of useful custom brushes I wish to continue using. Can someone help me here please? It's put my graphic art on hold for the time being

Oh man, thanks!!! I feel like a complete tool now, I thought I was going crazy, I'm sorry I didn't heed your first suggestion, I just didn't fully understand it since I'm still very new to CS6 and all the options that go with it.
I really appreciate all the help you guys have given me, I just needed a little extra explanation I can crack on with some art now.
