ID is displaying the wrong characters

Hi,
I am running ID CS2 on an xp machine (SP2 - to open ancient PM files) and have been setting in text recently for the 28 EU languages, I have the Baltic ones left to do, and have come up with a slight problem!
When opening the text in Word I can see all the characters correctly, (i's with lines over instead of dots) and other Baltic characters.
When pasting into InDesign they turn into other characters (the i mentioned above now has a hat on ^ instead.)
And ideas how this happens and how to correct it?
I open the same INDD file on the Remote (windows server 2003) to work on it at home and they are all correct.
I've reloaded the Myriad pro font and deleted Adobefnt.lst files but nothing has happened.
I've looked through all the settings and they are identical on the remote and my machine so I don't understand why my machine is a little strange.
I hope someone understands this and can help me as the remote is very slow!!
Justine

Please don't hijack a mostly unrelated thread. New topics should be started on their own.
That said, this sounds like you are running Windows XP SP3 or Vista, both of which break the ability of CS2 to open PM documents. Your only choice, if that is your situation and you need to open these, is to either find a system running SP2 or roll back, or to upgrade to a current version of InDesign.

What's wrong with the built-in keyboard on my macbook? The caps button does not work rite, no matter what letter button i push they all come out capitals and the number keys when pushed display the special characters instead of the numbers!

the built-in keyboard on my macbook is not functioning right, the number keys when pushed display the special characters instead of the numbers,
the caps button doesn't work at all, the letter buttons display capitals when pushed whether the caps button is on or off, the shift keys are also out of whack!!
It seems it somehow got relocated to the "0" button because if you push and hold the zero button down the keyboard seems to operate normally, the number keys display numbers when pushed the letter keys display lower case when pushed but release the zero button and your back in the twilight zone!! Can anybody help me resolve this issue? one more thing im using an external usb keyboard right now and it seems to function properly if that helps any.

You would do better in the actual macbook pro forums (this is not).

Calendar app icon is displaying the wrong date

For some reason on my iPhone's homescreen the icon for the Calendar app has today started displaying the wrong date.
It should show today's date, Monday 6th but instead it reads Sunday 5th.
What confuses me is that the phone does know the date is Monday 6th as the lock screen shows it correctly and also when I actually load the Calendar app it starts on the right date. Also, when I load the multi task bar the Calendar app icon there is correct. See the attached photo, which shows the Calendar app on the home screen (faded, middle left) displaying yesterdays date Sunday 5th, while the app icon in the multi task bar is correct, Monday 6th.
Syncing the calendar with my iMac does not correct the error. Equally, turning the phone off and on again has not sorted it.
Does anyone have any idea what might be causing the fault? And more importantly how to correct it?
Thanks.

Thanks for the suggestion DaVBMan, sadly it didn't work. The only thing that did work was to wait until midnight and it corrected itself. In the mind of the phone it lived a whole day twice and then skipped one completely in order to get back on track. Very odd and also I have since discovered it has happened to a few of my friends too.
It's not happened again so I have no idea what so ever what caused it. Fingers crossed it never recurs.

Mail app displays the wrong Inbox when you open it.

This problem can be easily reproduced if you have more than one email account configured in iOS 4.x
It should be extremely simple to fix with the next update. I see that this same problem has been mentioned before, but I couldn't update that thread because it's "archived." If you want Apple to fix this, please report the issue to Apple using one or more of the links below:
http://www.apple.com/feedback/ipodtouch.html
http://www.apple.com/feedback/iphone.html
http://www.apple.com/feedback/ipad.html (not sure if iPad Mail app is affected)
Here's what I submitted...
Subject:
Simple software design issue in Mail app.
Feedback Type:
Design/Ease of Use
Comments:
Thanks for your work on making iOS better and better with each update! There is no option to provide general iOS feedback, so I'll submit this under "iPhone" and "iPod." I'm currently using the latest iOS (4.3.1).
The native Mail app in iOS has had the Unified Inbox feature since iOS 4.0, which is very useful. However, there is a minor design flaw that could be easily resolved with a software update.
My setup:
I have 3 Exchange accounts on my device (Hotmail, Gmail[Default], Work). The Hotmail Inbox is empty at least 98% of the time because my Gmail account periodically downloads the messages. The only reason I have the Hotmail account entered on my device is to make sure I can see a message in "All Inboxes" even before my Google account retrieves it. On my device, the Gmail account is set as default for Mail and Contacts.
The problem:
I never intentionally select the Inbox for the Hotmail account because it should almost always be empty. I would simply view "All Inboxes." Still, half the time I open the Mail app, it shows the empty Hotmail Inbox. This is very annoying!
I finally figured out how to reproduce it consistently:
(must have more than one account configured)
1) Launch the Mail app and back-up to the screen that shows the list of accounts / Inboxes (I usually try to leave it here when I'm done, hoping to see that screen the next time I open Mail).
2) Without selecting a specific account or Inbox, push the Home button to exit the Mail app.
3) Kill the Mail process from the multi-tasking menu.
4) Open Mail again
Mail will show whichever Inbox comes immediately after "All Inboxes", even if it's not your default account. In my case, it starts in the empty Hotmail Inbox every time...a folder that I never intentionally select. Each time, I have to go back to the list and tap "All Inboxes."
So, if I leave Mail on the root screen before killing the process, it consistently displays the wrong Inbox the next time I open it. If I select an Inbox or "All Inboxes," it will remember that selection and show me that screen the next time I open Mail.
What it should do:
When Mail doesn't know which Inbox to display, it should...
A. Start on the root screen with the list of accounts and Inboxes (preferred option).
or B. Start in "All Inboxes" (secondary preference).
or C. Start in the Inbox of the default account (not preferred, but better than showing an empty/unused Inbox).
Thank you!

Try this...
Launch the Mail app.
Navigate to the "Mailboxes" page (the page that lists all of your accounts).
Tap "Edit" in the top right corner.
Scroll down to the bottom section of the page, titled "ACCOUNTS".
Drag the triple-bars on the right to reorder the accounts listed. The first account listed will be the one that the app launches to.
Hope this helps, I went crazy trying to figure that out and it worked for me.

MS Notepad unable to display the Chinese characters I type and display them as squares

MS Notepad is unable to display the Chinese characters I type and display them as squares. But when I copy those squares on notepad to Wordpad or MS Word, they display the Chinese characters just fine. I've no idea why those Chinese characters I type can't display properly on notepad. I check the font of the notepad and it's the default. I've another Windows Vista desktop computer which has notepad of the similar setting and display Chinese characters just fine. Both are using Chinese (Simplified) - Microsoft Pinyin New Experience Input Style to input those characters. But I don't understand why my Windows 7 is facing this problem.

Hi,
Notepad is a very simple text editor BUT it will work if you use the SAME language in Windows. Please try:
1. go to control panel, click "Clock, Language, and Region"
2. click "Change location" under the "Region" section
3. go to the "administrative" tab, then click "change system locale...", then select "Chinese".
Regards.

How to fix iPhone 5 from displaying the wrong time

Work up the day is daylight savings time and come to find out my iPhone was displaying the wrong time tried to switch from manual and automatic quick to see if it worked and nothing turned it on airplane mode still didn't work and I noticed I'm also having problems with my service please help

If it is on automatic time, then the time is received from the carrier. If you say you are having "service" problems, I am assuming you mean your carrier. It could be an overall carrier problem. Contact them.

Mouse cursor displays the wrong icon

My cursor still changes based on the context, like hovering over a link or in a text field, but displays the wrong icon. After focusing a text field, the cursor is a reggular arrow in the text editor and turns to the text staff outside of it when it should be an arrow.
I just did a fresh install of 10.6.8 on a crucial m4 - ct256m4ssd
I FOUND THAT RESIZING THE MOUSE CURSOR IN THE UNIVERSAL ACCESSS PREFERENCES temporarily restores the cursor to a size-adjusted mouse, until I do something like click in a text field.

just re-install the os

Why does the iphone 5 always display the wrong time

why does the iphone 5 always display the wrong time

I had similar problem. My iPhone was always about 3 minutes faster than the correct time here in the UK which I found to be very irritating. It just came to a head because here in the UK we have just changed from British Summer Time back to standard GMT. This actually worked automatically except that the iPhone time still showed it to be about 3 minutes faster than GMT. However I have now cured the problem (almost) by going to
Settings/General/ Date & Time/ and then selected the "Set Automatically" button.
The clock then immediately jumped back 3 minutes and now the iPhone time is only about 10 seconds slow which is good enough for me.

My wireless keyboard is typing the wrong characters?

My wireless keyboard is typing the wrong characters and as a result I cannot log into my profile and check the system preferences?

That mapping is determined by the settings of your computer. Go to system prefs/keyboard/input sources and make sure that only US is present on the list (or whatever language you normally use).

IPhone displays the wrong song information

Hello,
Recently I have noticed that my phone often displays the wrong songs and information. What I mean is, when I tap on an artist, it shows the wrong songs. For example, if I listened to AC/DC and then try to change it and listen to Alice in Chains, the phone still displays the AC/DC songs. This is very aggravating and I seem to be the only person who has this problem. I checked the song info on itunes and everything is correct. Any ideas?
Thank you,
Brad

This has been happening to me for while now and would love to get an answer or fix.

Acrobat X displaying the wrong font

I've been using Acrobat X for a few weeks. The other day it installed an update. Since then my documents aren't displaying the font used by the orginal Office 2010 documents.
If I create the PDF from Office 2010 by selecting "save as Adobe PDF" from Word or Excel file menu then Acrobat X renders it using Adobe Serif MM instead of Times New Roman. It seems like a close enough match.
If I create the PDF in Office using "save as" and choose the PDF file type then Acrobat X will substite Adobe Sans MM for Times New Roman,
If I send this to a person who is using Acrobat 9 it is being displayed as Times New Roman.
Does anyone know how I can make this work? We have a lot of pdf documents that were created using Office 2007 & 2010.

Hi Louis,
If I understand you correctly, you are saying that problem started with updating Acrobat 10.0.1 to 10.0.2 and it is there in both Save as "PDF" and Save as "Adobe PDF"
With Save as Adobe PDF, you see Adobe Serif MM font and
With Save as PDF, you see Adobe Sans MM font.
where the actual font is TimeNewRoman.
Am I correct?
Also when you say that "If I send this to a person who is using Acrobat 9" do you mean that you are sending above Acrobat 10.0.2 created PDF to a person who will view this in Acrobat 9? And there this PDF shows correct font. Please correct me if I am wrong.
I tried this for a sample file with Acrobat 10.0.2+Office 2010 Pro Plus+Win7 SP1 but couldn't able to reproduce. So based on above queries we will investigate it more. If possible please share your source file also (you can upload it on acrobat.com)
Thanks,
Vishal Gupta

My home page displays the wrong day in my sport section.

My home page is Yahoo. I have a section on the homepage that is set up for my sport teams. The days displayed for date of play are wrong. The category displays the college teams day as Friday, but the date of play is Saturday. This day is displayed next to the teams name correctly. I have tried to get help from yahoo, but I get no answer and I do not get a support help e-mail address. Thank You, Norman Crawford ([email protected])

Mac mini displays the wrong resolution

Hi everybody.
My Mac mini recently began starting up in the wrong resolution (1024x768, instead of the usual 1280x1024.) From my experience with older, 680x0 Macs, I reset the PRAM. This fixed the problem, but I find that I have to do it every time I restart the computer.
Is there a battery inside the mini that needs to be replaced?
Thanks.
Intel mini (1.5GHz Core Solo) Mac OS X (10.4.9)

Mr E,
Try using the Finder to search for files with the name 'windowserver' (no quotes of course. You should find 2 or 3, including one with a string of additional alphanumeic characters. Move all three to the trash and then reboot.
These are the files that control screen properties, and the system will recreate new ones in the absence of the originals. Startup may produce an erroneous resolution if your screen is not tightly connected and thus not properly recognized, but if so, aside from checking the connections are firm and tight as suggested, you should then be able to set the required resolution and have the system retain it correctly.

Entering a Value and Tabbing out of af:inputListOfValues displays the wrong value

Good morning. I am having an issue with the autosubmit and tabbing out of af:inputListOfValues in my code.
Problem: When I type in a valid value and tab out of the field, it ignores the value I entered and displays whatever the first list in the query result instead regardless of the value I typed.
My code snippet. What it does is simply an LoV search of Employee No attached to an entity attribute and depending on selection, it will display the Employee Name within the page. (it also retrieves a table view depending what employee number was entered)
<af:inputListOfValues id="empNoId"
             popupTitle="Search and Select: #{bindings.EmpNo.hints.label}"
              value="#{bindings.EmpNo.inputValue}"
              label="#{bindings.EmpNo.hints.label}"
              model="#{bindings.EmpNo.listOfValuesModel}"
              required="#{bindings.EmpNo.hints.mandatory}"
              columns="#{bindings.EmpNo.hints.displayWidth}"
             shortDesc="#{bindings.EmpNo.hints.tooltip}"
               binding="#{workLocationBean.txtEmpNo}"
              partialTriggers="id1"
             valueChangeListener="{bean.onEmpNoChange}"
             autoSubmit="true">
        <f:validator binding="#{bindings.EmpNo.validator}"/>
</af:inputListOfValues>
Other things to note:
When I enter a valid employee number and click anywhere in the page (not TAB), it behaves correctly.
I have been trying to figure this out for days. Even my valueChangeListener gets the wrong value (when I do System.out) when I tab out so I am not sure where to catch it and replace it with the correct value.
Thank you.

This usually happens when primary key is not set in view object used by LOV.
