Installing font gives Error

I've tried installing the COMICS.TTF (not Comic Sans) from a font site, but I get an error messages saying that the font may cause a system crash. Then I tried installing a COMICS.TTF font that works perfectly fine on my Windows PC at work, but I get the same message.
I don't want to risk system crashes but need the font for my side job at home on my Mac. I'm trying to install it by simply clicking on the font on my desktop.
Am I doing something wrong? I thought Macs support most font types, even non-Mac fonts.
Thanks!

Boy are you looking for trouble.
That said, fonts go in three places (or anywhere you want if you have something like Extensis Suitcase). In System/Library/Fonts, Library/fonts, or User/Library/fonts. If what you are describing is the actual font, and not an installer, drag it into one of these folders, and restart.

  • II have downloaded several Apps that state they work with iTouch but they will not install and give error message that I need updated software, while all my updates available are installed on both iTouch and my computer iTunesWhy will Mindtools app not

    My iPod Touch will not function with certain updated apps ie MindTools, YP.com, Mint, Ymessenger etc and I get the error message that I need to install updated software to load these apps to my iPod Touch; however, I have double checked and all the software updates have been loaded in obht the iPod touch and my computer. There are no updates availabe; yet the error message on App is a software update is required for App. "was not installed because it requires a newer version of iPod software."
    The iPod Touch is using 3.1.3 software and it tells me that is the current and updated software version.

    You are correct in that your 1G iPod Touch has all the latest software updates.  It can only be updated to version 3.1. 
    However that Apps you are trying to download and install likely require iOS version 4.0 or later, which is not compatible with your iPod Touch.  So either you'll need to buy a newer iPod Touch or find other Apps that are suitable replacements if possible. 
    Sorry.

  • Installing component gives error

    Hi,
    I am facing a pretty wierd problem.
    I am using "HideStandardCheckinAndSearch" component.
    If I use the zip file downloaded from the Oracle Site(HideStandardCheckinAndSearch.zip) and install this component, it installs easily.
    When the same component I download through Advanced Component manager Screen from UCM from one environment so that same can be used in another,
    it downloads as a "manifest.zip".
    I unzip it, the folder structure created is as --->
    manifest(folder) --->mainfest(folder) ---> Component(folder) and manifest(hda file) ---> Clicking on component folder ---> HideStandardCheckinAndSearch(folder) ---> resources(folder) , HideStandardCheckinAndSearch(hda file) , hidestandardcheckinandsearch_environment(cfg file and readme file).
    I rename the second manifest folder as "Hidestandardcheckinandsearch" and zip it so that is same as the one I downloaded from Oracle Site but once tryng toinstall i get teh following error :
    "Event generated by user 'weblogic' at host 'localhost:16200'. Unable to execute service GET_COMPONENT_INSTALL_FORM and function saveComponentZip.
    Unable to find 'manifest.hda' in 'D:/Oracle/Middleware/user_projects/domains/base_domain/ucm/cs/vault/~temp/1125732838.zip' zip file "
    I am not able to understand what wrong I am doing ....
    Any help in clarifying this would be great.

    Your top level should be your component folder & manifest.hda file.
    You've probably gotten confused with the folder names when you unzipped and it created a new top level folder for you. Also, you can embed components inside each other, so that can also complicate the structure of a component.. but, usually the embedded components are just zip files, so it's not too unique.
    Take your zipped component and compare it against an ootb zipped component. Or, let the component wizard zip up your component for you.

  • Installing Eclipse gives error

    hi all
    I am installing Eclipse on my machine
    while installing im getting the following error
    An error has occurred, please see the log file
    and in the log file , i get this exception
    java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: javax.xml.parsers.SAXParserFactory
    wht's the solution?
    do i need to add any .jarr to classpath?
    pls shelp
    Thanx

    I have the same problem too, when installing Eclipse, see
    [configuration folder *.logfile] errors occured etc. I knew I has a relationship with other Java VM eclipse is calling.
    When I am executing
    {ECLIPSE_HOME}eclipse.exe -vm C:\j2sdk1.4.2_08\bin\javaw.exe Eclipse
    executes,but then When I am Clicking the Eclipse Icon itself it displays the mentioned error.
    In my case I just Installed Oracle then It assigned its owned Java VM variables:
    if your are about to look at the Path Environement Variables, you can see some oracle parameters SOMETHING LIKE this:
    C:\oracle\ora92\bin;C:\Program Files\Oracle\jre\1.3.1\bin;C:\Program Files\Oracle\jre\
    Just cut this variables and then PASTE it the last line of the Path ENVIRONMENT variable, DO NOT DELETE!
    and IT WILL WORK FINE (^-^)
    hope this helps!

    Am not able to use facebook on my Iphone 4, softwareversion:iOS7.1, also tried to access through safari and chrome that i have installed it gives an error message saying: "safari could not open the page because server stopped responding", i tried network reset, reset the whole device, rebooting , changing airplane mode rebooting nothing fix the issue, but i can access other sites and google , am using Vodafone as my carrier with 2g network, when at home able to access facebook.com through wifi in safari requesting assistance thank you

    If you can access Facebook while on Wifi at home, but you are unable to access it while away running on your carrier's 2G network, I could phone your carrier.  You have already completed the Cellular Data troubleshooting for the iPhone, so any limitations keeping your from connecting to Facebook over cellular will have to be answered by your carrier.

  • When I Restore My iPhone with itunes gives error -1 will end of the Installing  firmware

    When I Restore My iPhone with itunes gives error -1 will end of the Installing  firmware

    Error 1 means, as the link that Chris gave you says, that your phone is either jailbroken or damaged.
    It can also mean that your antivirus is blocking the update, but this is rare. Try disabling your antivirus if your phone is not jailbroken. If that doesn't resolve the problem you need to get the phone fixed or replaced.
    If the phone IS jailbroken you have just learned why you should not hack an iPhone. And you will have to go somewhere other than an Apple-hosted forum for help.

    Hello, I need help regarding the Application Manager
    Application Manager gives back the error (EX11) while installing InDesign CS6 (error while extracting in temporary folders).
    I don´t have problems installing PS, Acrobat etc.
    Any idea?
    Thanks

    I would have never figured that out myself. Thank you so much! On behalf on my dad a big thanks as well, because he is going to use Adobe InDesign CC (2014).
    Here, a local, standard user account worked for me. However, the password of an Administrator account was required once.
    Here, any username longer than 13 created that error code, for example I tried "AInDesignCC14" unsuccessfully. Usernames with 12 or less characters worked, for example "InDesignCC14" worked.
    Just renaming an existing account did not work, because the personal folders did not change in name. Therefore, I was forced to create a new account.
