Itunes is displaying in Japanese , all th fonts look strange. Just upgraded

Athlon Windows XP
Just upgraded to 7.02 and all text looks strange and music looks to be for the Japan market and price of download in in Yen. All my setting in iTunes are for English.
What can I do?

ME TOO!
At first I thought it was cute, "oh look now I can listen to cool J-pop bands like Bump of Chicken and BoA", but it won't go away. Where is my itms that I know and love.
And who wants to pay up to 200 yen for a song? That's like two dollars.
Plus I can't read Japanese.
Is everyone's iTunes like this right now?

Installed photoshop, now all fonts look strange

Hey everyone,
I installed photoshop and now my safari pages look crazy. The font is different and smaller, everything seems slightly zoomed out, and changing setting in safari preferences hasn't changed anything.
HELP!

Clear the font cache files from the system.
Close all running applications. From an administrator account, open the Terminal app and enter the following command:
sudo atsutil databases -remove
This removes all font cache files. Both for the system and all user font cache files. After running the command, close Terminal and immediately restart your Mac.

Fonts look different after upgrade

ok so I upgraded something via pacman -Syu and now after restarting, I find that some of the fonts have changed, not that it's a problem but is this normal?
The words look smaller now and less bolded. Changes have appeared in both firefox, acroread, the login page, xchm and others which I have not tried.

even after adding nomodeset into menu.lst, I still get the same font with the login screen, firefox, etc.
what should I do?
Is grub like lilo where I need to run something to update the binary?

ITunes Match displays all my music but won't download or play

I have just upgraded to Yosemite, doing a clean install. There are 2 user profiles - mine and my partner's. My partner's music appears to be playing fine. I have iTunes Match. I created my user account yesterday, logging in with my one & only Apple ID. I have turned iTunes Match on and it is displaying all of my music, playlists, movies and TV shows (all with the little cloud icon). However nothing is playing or downloading. Whenever I click to either download or stream a song I get a message telling me "This computer is already associated with an Apple ID" and telling me to wait 90 days. Surely this is not referring to my partner's user account on the same iMac? Otherwise what would be the point of having separate user accounts on a desktop? All my music is correctly stored in iTunes Match - now I want to listen to it. What has gone wrong here please? And yes, my user account has only 1 Apple ID and has been logged in with that since inception.

Apple have done something really screwy with Apple IDs on Yosemite. They've decided to associate an Apple ID with the device in its entirety, instead of with each user account.
I have two logins, one for my own personal account and one for a radio show I produce. The personal account has iTunes Match but the radio show accountt is just normal iTunes with iTunes In The Cloud. When I want to download music for the radio show, I switch to that account. I needed to download some of the music for that account and was warned that if I change accounts on this device I won't be able to again for another 90 days. I had no choice because I needed those files. But now when I go back to my personal login, I can no longer download any of my music from iTunes Match.
Fortunately, I have another device associated with my personal iTunes account and can download some of my music there instead.
This really needs to be sorted out!

ITunes not displaying Japanese characters...

Ever since a few days ago, iTunes stopped displaying Japanese characters for any of the songs that have them. They display right on the iPod and on my computer, and even if I re-type them, they continue being boxes. But if I copy and paste a section of cubes and paste it into Google Chrome or anything else, they show up just fine...
Is there any way to fix that?
Thanks~

Fontnames partly displayed in Japanese - Fonts are not broken...

I'm having a rather odd issue recently, when I was talking to my customer he needed some changes in Text. I had used the font PilGi, which comes to us from Apple with OS X. Unfortunately the font was now dislplayed as: 필기체 in Illustrator. The font is still working, and I can type new characters and so on, but my fontnames are quite unusable now.
Here are the steps, I tried to come over this problem:
1. Repair file permissions: Volume had to be repaired with the System-DVD. Repair Sucess (Volume and Permissions.)
2. Clear font-caches using Onyx.(All: System, Application...)
3. Restore System-Fonts
4. Reset Systemcache
5. Clear the Font Folder from /Library/Fonts
6. Clear the Font Folder from ~/Library/Fonts
7. Reinstall OS X
8. Reinstall all missing updates
9. Called up a friend and had the font E-Mailed to me.
I'm rather confused and helpless. I don't want to import my backuped stuff manually to find out, what was causing the problem...
Any help?

Hi,
Adobe changed the way fonts are displayed in photoshop cc 2014.
Now instead of just showing the font family, all the font styles within the family are displayed as well.

Embedded fonts are missing characters in display despite having all glyphs...

Hi,
As per the subject, I have a vast array of different fonts that I need to load on demand via CSS to SWF.
For the most part, this works very well. I have around 600 fonts where everything is just fine.
I also have some problem fonts like the below;
That is _supposed_ to display;
"ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ
abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz"
All the glyphs are there, and have been validated using font.hasGlyphs(string) method.
The font works perfectly in numerous desktop applications
The font works perfectly when converted to a web font
Nonetheless, no matter what I try, or what SDK I use, the problem fonts always fail to display on the same characters.
My guess is, because they are allowing spaces for the characters, that the glyphs and / or metrics are slightly out, but I have absolutely no idea where to begin debugging this and I would welcome any input from anybody who _has_ got an idea!
Thanks,
G

Well, hasGlyphs just says there is data in the slot for that character, not whether the data is any good.
Essentially, all embedded fonts are transcoded into a Flash-compatible data format. Then Flash uses that data format to draw the glyph. There are 4 data formats that Flash uses, but they fall into two main categories: CFF, and non-CFF. The transcoding is done via the compiler with help from some font manager libraries listed in the flex-config.xml. Depending on whether you need CFF or non-CFF, I think different libraries are used. I've heard you may get slightly different results by messing around with the list of font managers, but I haven't proven it.
Anyway, first thing I would try is a simple, AS-only test with whatever configuration is failing (CFF or non-CFF). Then I would try the opposite configuration. Getting Flex and TLF out of the equation helps narrow down the possibilities. But it is probably some issue with the transcoding. Are there other commonalities with the non-working fonts? Are they all OTF or CFF fonts?

How to display the Japanese character

Hi
Im trying to display the Japanese characters in pdf report(Using iText Report). I have the method as follows which is encoding the characters in a particular format in my say, Reports.java
public String stringFormat( String strData ) throws Exception {
          String result=null;
          try{
          result = new String(strData.toString().getBytes("Shift-JIS"),"UTF-8");
          }catch(Exception e)          {}
          return result;
Im calling this method to display a category code in another one java file like
Phrase colm_2          = new Phrase(report.stringFormat(strCatgdes),font);
But Im nt getting the correct japanese chars, instead im seeing like this ??????? in my pdf report. I tried with different encoding char set like "ISO2022JP,EUC_JP,SJIS,Shift-JIS,MS932,Cp33722". All giving the wrong characters.
Can anyone help me to solve this issue?
Thanks in Advance.

result = new String(strData.toString().getBytes("Shift-JIS"),"UTF-8");Priceless. So you take a string, convert it to Shift-JIS bytes, and then read the Shift-JIS bytes, pretending they're UTF-8. And you really expect that to work?
Strings are always in UTF-16, so there shouldn't be any need for you to do anything.
1) Make sure you read your ressources with the correct encoding
2) Make sure your font can actually display the letters

My itunes can't read japanese

Hello, i have windows 7 home premium and my japanese IME is working just fine, but there seems to be a problem with it itunes.
in the library its able to display the japanese characters correctly, but when i click "get Info" in the places wehre the japanese characters are displayed it's squares instead. how can i be able to edit the itunes in japanese instead of fighting the little squares?

If I understand correctly, your iPad shows up when you go to "My Computer", but it doesn't show up in iTunes.
Here are some troubleshooting steps to take.
1. Try a different cable.
2. Try a different USB port on your computer
3. Reset the iPad. http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1430
4. Restart the computer.
5. Reinstall iTunes (it sounds like you are on Windows). http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1925 Follow the directions in this article exactly.
6. Restore your iPad. Because iTunes cannot see your iPad you will have to put the device in recovery mode and you will lose all of the data on your iPad since you last synced it. http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4097
7. Contact Apple for service.

How can I get iTunes to display the tracks from a CD in their original (album) order?

To be absolutely honest, I don't really understand what this box is for, so I shall just use it to repeat and expand on my question. (I have already sent a "Feedback" comment on the same topic).
How can I get iTunes to display the tracks from a CD in their original (album) order?
It seems to me that there is something very basic wrong with the way iTunes handles CD Tracks.
Professionally produced CD tracks are seldom if ever in a randomised order. Why then does iTunes seem unable to display the tracks in the order they appear on the original CD source - whether from a personally owned CD or from a download from the iTunes Store?
Some music demands a specific, non-alphabetic sequence in order to make sense. Why does it seem that iTunes only offers Alphabetic, or reverse alphabetic order - both of which make a nonsense of the original, often intended order of tracks?
Why not replace the so-called "cover-art" in the bottom left hand corner if the iTunes window - which, while it may look attractive to some, gives the barest of information concerning the original disc, with a list of the original CD tracks in their original order, so that the user can easily reestablish the order in which they should be played.
As I would expect legibility might be a problem with doing this, why could not the original contents, (in their original order), at least, be displayed when the "cover art" is double clicked-on - the result of which at present gives me an enlarged version of the "Cover Art". While on the subject of the contents of the source disc, what about all the album notes which someone takes trouble to write in order to increase the appreciation of the music on the CD and the listener's general background knowledge of the artists involved. Such notes, it seems to me, have considerable intrinsic value in their own account. I would, I think, normally be prepared to buy such "Sleeve notes" - so long as a "taster" was supplied (as it is for the music) - for something like the cost of a single 'Tune" on iTunes.
These two aspects let Apple iTunes down enormously, in my opinion. I think that by chopping even quite protracted sequences of music up into bits does no one any favours - except perhaps Apple's already quite substantial bank balance. People have to be aware that two and a half, to three and a half minutes is a very short time to develop a piece of worthwhile music, and that there are many, many composers, not all of whom are alive today who have written music that huge masses of mankind value for the enrichment of their lives and the human condition in general.
Please make the viewing of iTunes tracks in their correct order by default possible. By all means have the alphabetical variations available as offering a different approach to the music, but not the sole approach to it - PLEASE.
Frustratedly yours
Alan Whitaker
PS I work at my old 24" iMac Intel Core 2 machine which runs OS "Tiger" - because it is more beautiful to look at, the screen is more pleasant to work on, and because, in some ways it is more capable (it will run FreeHand MX without needing a "patch"), than my more recent 21.5" which runs "Snow Leopard". (I don't find it that much slower, either).

Dear Mike
Thanks for the support. I am utterly amazed that after all the hype about how good iTunes is that it cannot play a downloaded CD in the correct order, and that what that order should be is not available directly from within one's own iTunes installation. (I know that one can go back to the iTunes Store to check what the order should be, but having downloaded the tracks surely iTunes is clever enough to retrieve this important information.
My iTunes to differ from yours in that I have also noticed that it seems unable to download copies of my "talking books" in the correct order either. But in my case it downloads them - from a CD - in order, but with the first track downloaded first - so that it appears at the bottom of the column of tracks so that it would get played last! (At least this is, while being inexplicable, a relatively "logical" bit of blundering and because of this is relatively easy to put right!).
I like many genres of music, some of which are not really programmed except perhaps by the artist performing them. I know that Frank Sinatra was very careful to programme his album songs to obtain a particular effect and in relation to the keys of the music. iTunes presumes to know better.
Film scores may be totally randomly put together, in some cases, but in others the order is vital to one's appreciation of the music as a whole and how it relates to the plot of the film.
In symphonic music most works are divided into sections and are conceived by the composer that way. Some individual sections may gain a life of their own if played separately, but they are never complete in the sense that the composer envisaged them without being placed in their proper context.
Opera and probably most choral music too, is similar except that the words may well become meaningless if the order is changed at the whim of a piece of ill-written computer code, while ballet music has to be heard totally within its sequential context or it becomes meaningless.
Finally, I would venture that iTunes, by jumbling up the order of the tracks as recorded on a CD, does an immense disservice, not only to the music on a particular CD, but to music in general, by expressing everything in terms of "Songs" - which it seems to interpret as stand-alone items of between 2 and 4 minutes whatever the genre. Even the way the iTunes publicity speaks of how many "songs" it can store instead of how many minutes or hours of recorded sound. This has to be another brick in the wall of "dumming-down" of people's expectations, and the shortening of their attention spans.
I don't know about anyone else, but I feel betrayed by Apple over this. Perhaps the look, feel and general presentation of an item are not the most desirable features of a consumer product. Maybe it should be judged more on it fitness for the purpose for which it was sold. There is one other possibility - that Apple are trying to redefine "Music" - and that everything that lasts longer than about 3.5 minutes or is in the form of what could for want of a better term be called symphonic in the broadest sense is something else - not "Music" within Apple's new definition, at all!
Well that's off my chest! now I can get down to creating some sort of order in my iTunes Libraries, knowing that I have to reconsult all the sources in order to confirm the source playing order.
Anyway thanks again. At least I know that it is not just me

Wrong Display of Japanese Currency in ALV Report

Dear Friends,
       I am facing a problem in Displaying a Japanese Currency in the ALV Report Output. I am mentioning the Currency Key field and the Currency field in the Report.
For example, the amount field should be displaying as 22838 instead of 228.38 where this is correct in case of USD but not correct in case of JPY.
Code where the i am appending the fieldcatlog:
    ls_fieldcat-fieldname = 'WAERK'.
    ls_fieldcat-datatype = 'CUKY'.
    ls_fieldcat-outputlen = 8.
    ls_fieldcat-seltext_l = Text-088.
    ls_fieldcat-seltext_m = Text-088.
    ls_fieldcat-seltext_s = Text-088.
    ls_fieldcat-reptext_ddic = Text-088.
    APPEND ls_fieldcat TO lt_fieldcat.
    CLEAR ls_fieldcat.
    ls_fieldcat-fieldname = 'BUCK0'.
    ls_fieldcat-datatype = 'CURR'.
    ls_fieldcat-outputlen = 16.
    ls_fieldcat-seltext_l = Text-017.
    ls_fieldcat-seltext_m = Text-017.
    ls_fieldcat-seltext_s = Text-017.
    ls_fieldcat-reptext_ddic = Text-017.
Please do suggest if any inputs on the same.
Thanks in Advance for you reply.
Thanks and Regards,
Saritha K

Hi,
All the Decimals related to currency fields will be stored in the table tcurx.
You have to get the currency and respective decimals into internal table.
Read the internal the table with key equal to currency.
And calculate the values as below :
loop at gt_output.
      READ TABLE gt_tcurx WITH KEY currkey = gt_output-zwaers.
      IF sy-subrc EQ 0.
        IF gt_tcurx-currdec = '0'.
          gt_output-dmbtr = gt_output-dmbtr * 100.
        ELSEIF gt_tcurx-currdec = '3'.
          gt_output-dmbtr = gt_output-dmbtr / 10.
        ENDIF.
      ENDIF.
      MODIFY gt_output.
endloop. Then pass the gt_output to ALV FM.
In the above code gt_output is my final internal table which i am passing to the ALV FM. And gt_tcurx is the internal table consists of all the currency and their decimals.
Thanks,
Sri.
