Just loaded program. Typed text doesn't appear.

If I highlight the text I can see it is there but once unhighlighted it disappears.

There are two things to do that solve a lot of problems with the iWork ’08 &/or ’09 apps in Snow Leopard.
First, use the Mac OS 10.6.7 combo updater. This fixes a problem with fonts that is not fixed using the delta update (10.6.1 > 10.6.2). Then download & run the 10.6.7 font fix updater here.
Second, make sure your iWork applications are updated. For iWork '08 that is Pages 3.0.3 & Numbers 1.0.3. For iWork '09 it's Pages 4.0.5 & Numbers 2.0.5. If you're not running the latest versions & Software Update says your software is up to date, make sure the applications are where the installer initially put them. The updaters are very picky. If the location is not where the updater is programmed to look or if the folder doesn't have the name the updater looks for, it will not work. The applications cannot be renamed or moved. They must be in the iWork '08 or iWork '09 folder in Applications. That iWork folder must be named iWork '08 or iWork '09. If it doesn't have the '08 or '09 Software Update won't find them & the updaters won't work.
Also, deleting the program's preference list is the #1 trouble-shooting step with any misbehaving application. Go to HD > Users > (your account) > Library > Preferences, delete the com.apple.iwork.pages.plist, empty the Trash & then restart Pages. Repeat with Numbers & Keynote. This needs to be done for each user.

Certain pages text doesn't appear properly--how do I reset

On Certain pages (craiglist.com) the text doesn't appear correctly...the best way to describe it is the text appears as strange characters and is illegible. In addition, the characters are squished together. Is there a way to reset something? I've already tried emptying the cache, reset safari, enlarging/reducing font size.

Make sure you get rid of the fonts Helvetica Fractions and Times Phonetic if you have them. Also clean your font caches with FontFinagler (use Google to find it).
If you still have problems, send me a screenshot (tom at bluesky dot org).

How do I get firefox to save tabs when I quit the program? This doesn't appear to be available in 4.0

On previous firefox version, when I quit the program, a prompt would ask me if I wanted to save tabs. That doesn't appear to be happening with 4.0 upgrade. Can I still save and quit?

One change in Firefox 4 is to by default stop Firefox displaying the warning message, but it can be turned back on by changing some preferences.
# Type '''about:config''' into the location bar and press enter
# Accept the warning message that appears, you will be taken to a list of preferences
# Locate the preference '''browser.tabs.warnOnClose''', if its value is set to '''false''', double-click on it to change its value to '''true'''
# Repeat this for these 3 preferences '''browser.warnOnQuit''', '''browser.warnOnRestart''' and '''browser.showQuitWarning'''

Special TEXT doesn't appear as it should when published

I used a spiffy font on my website, but after it's published, it doesn't show up on Mac or PC. It reverts to some arial-type font. I used to be able to keep the font by putting a shape over it and making it opaque, but I don't remember exactly how I did it - especially because I tried it again and it didn't work Can somebody please help?!!

I used to be able to keep the font
To turn a font into a graphic, you normally add an invisible amount of shadow to it.
Your special font cannot be seen on any machine where that font is not installed unless you convert your text into a graphic.

Resume highlighted text doesn't appear

Ok, I know this sounds small and silly, and it is, but when I close an applications such as Pages, for example, and then open it again, all the Resume features work but the text that was highlighted isn't still selected, as It's supposed to be. Is there any way to solve this?

Maybe It's a bug. Has anyone else had this problem. As small a problem as it may be, it's bugging me!

HT5848 Why there is no iTunes Radio on my iOS 07 ? I just installed it but it doesn't appear at all.... In the music

Can you please tell me why?! Should I connect to I cloud? Or how? Thanks for your responds

iTunes Radio is not advertised as a feature on the Australian website. It's not available there.
Here's the US page about it: http://www.apple.com/itunes/itunes-radio/

Comment note icon doesn't appear on underlined texts

Hi, I have been using Abobe Acrobat 9 Pro for some years now. Whenever I try to add a text note to underlined text there used to be a small icon appear on the top of underlined text indicating that underlined text has a comment attached to it.
Now ever since I have installed Adobe Acrobat XI Pro on Windows 8, the small comment note icon on underlined text doesn't appear anymore and this means that all the documents that I have created in Adobe Acrobat Pro 9 won't show that in XI edition of Acrobat.
Instead, Acrobat XI Pro shows the comment note icon on highlighted text but not on the underlined line. So, How can I know if the underlined text has a comment if the icon doesn't appear over it? What can I do to solve this issue to continue using the product with the older document on which I have worked in Acrobat 9 Pro?

It doesn't help with comment icon so I'll try to be more clear as possible on issue:
As you can see, the yellow comment icon appears on the top of the highlighted line on the left but on the right where I underlined the text and added a comment, it doesn't show any icon indication so there's no way I can know if it has a comment on it unless I hover mouse cursor over it.

I tried downlaoding itunes on my Windows Vista and after it completes, the icon doesn't appear on my desktop. The itunes setup can be found just not the actual program.

I tried downloading itunes on my Windows Vista and after it completes, the icon doesn't appear on my desktop. When I search for the itunes under my programs, this is what shows: iTunes64Setup.

It did prompt me to run it. I apologize. I said save.
This is what happens, I run the iTunes64Setup, it downlods, says it has completed and then I click finish on the iTunes installer. After that, nothing comes up. Usually the program will start after it installs. There isn't an icon on my desktop either. When I go and search for iTunes under programs, only the iTunes64Setup appears. I am also having trouble downloading Adope Photoshop as well.

SAVE button doesn't appear in Toolbar of Text Edit Control

Hai All,
I need to save the changes made to the text in my Text Edit Control, i know how to handle the Save command but my problem is the SAVE button doesn't appear in the Toolbar of the Text Editor. I have searched through the SDN but in all of those threads they already have the SAVE button and hence only the logic was discussed. But i need the SAVE button to appear in my Text Edit Control. Looking forward for your helpful answers.
Thanks in Advance,

Hi,
Check the demo program SAPSCRIPT_DEMO_NOTE_EDITOR what ever you enter in the editor you get the text using method
call method note_editor->get_text_as_stream
importing text = notetab.

(LDOM) The file just loaded does not appear to be executable.

Sorry if this is not the right forum - it seems to be the closest one for things about LDOMs; plese let me know if I should post somewhere else.
I have installed LDoms_Manager-1_2.zip on a T5220 Server; following the book ("Logical Domains 1.2 Administration Guide") I set up the control domain etc, then a guest domain (cranachan) - so far all appears well. I downloaded the dvd iso of Solaris 10 (sol-10-u7-ga-sparc-dvd.iso) and added it to the guest as described, started the domain and issued "boot vdisk_iso:f -v" - this seemed to work well, but there was an error that turned out to be that I had given the wrong path for the system disk.
So I started over - removed the guest domain and the disk definitions for both guest and control domain, and removed the guest; then recreated everything. This time, when I "boot vdisk_iso:f -v" I get:
The file just loaded does not appear to be executable.
Any idea what may have happened? It makes no sense to me; not unless the iso file has been corrupted, but it doesn't seem to have been modified, and I can mount it as a loop-back fs in linux.

I have the same problem with a Netra T1 system. Solaris 10 installed fine and it won't boot. It did have Solaris 8 on the system, but I put in new drives to start my Solaris 10 install.
I tried booting to single user cd-rom (ok boot cdrom -s) and ran this:
# installboot /usr/platform/SUNW,UltraAX-i2/lib/fs/ufs/bookblk /dev/rdsk/c1t0d0s1
(SUNW,UltraAX-i2 was derived from # uname -i)
It didn't help.
I also tried "setenv diag-switch? false" at the okay prompt. It didn't help
Any thoughts?

iCloud does not provide website hosting. You will need to find another website hosting service - there are many to choose from - and upload your site there. How you do this depends on what version of iWeb you have.
In order to upload your existing site in iWeb '09 and above:
Click on the name of the site in the sidebar: the publishing settings pane will open. Set 'Publish to' to 'FTP'. Enter the name of the site and a contact address (if desired).
In the 'FTP Server Settings' section you will need to know the server address (your hosting service can tell you that), and your username and password for that service. Your site will be published in a folder with its name at root level of the server, with an index.html file at root level (which will overwrite any index.html file which may be there already). The 'Directory/Path' field may need to include a path such as '/webspace/' or 'ht_docs/' - this is dependent on your hosting service and they should tell you this. If you want to publish within a folder you can add that to the path.
You can then click the 'Test connection' button so that iWeb can check that it can get access to your server space. You should enter the URL of the site in the 'URL' field so that rss feeds and internal links have the correct address.
To publish using an earlier version of iWeb:
From the File menu choose 'Publish to a folder'. You should create a folder somewhere convenient specifically for this and choose it when publishing to a folder: this folder should not contain anything else.
You now need an FTP program (FTP is the 'protocol' used for uploading) to upload the contents of the folder to your server.Cyberduck is free (donation requested): Transmit is $34 but I think better. You will need the server address (your hosting service can tell you that), and your username and password for that service. You can drag the contents of your folder to your webspace, or create a folder there and drag the contents to that if you prefer.
Some facilities that iWeb provided when hosted on MobileMe will not work on other servers: comments on weblogs and photos, password-protecting your site (some hosts may provide this), searching in the weblog, and a hits counter (again, some hosts can provide code for this). Slideshows in iWeb will work on other hosts than MobileMe (they use different code when FTPing which doesn't depend on scripts hosted on MobileMe as the MobileMe version does); however there is an issue with the 'buttons' which control the slideshow which are images hosted on me.com - these depend on images which used to be hosted on MobileMe. The poster 'Old Toad' on the Apple Forums has provided a workaround, described at http://oldtoadstutorials.net/No.26.html.

My iPhone is downloading an odd email here and there that doesn't appear on my iMac mail at work.Just read an email on my iPhone that I received at 6.00 this morning.checked my iPhone settings for mail,delete after download is off so not sure whats wrong.Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Can you do setup an unread mail folder that shows all unread mail regardless of what folder it really is in on the iPhone mail program somehow?
No.
If not, can this be submitted as an enhancement as it makes email use very cumbersome.
Yes. You can submit feedback to Apple: http://www.apple.com/feedback/iphone.html.

Here's an interesting bit: iTunes will let me restore my iPod touch from backup: it's still running iOS 4.3.3. I figured as much... there's backups showing in the Preferences -> Devices list for both devices (and even my old, long gone iPod touch 2G), but my iPhone (on iOS5) isn't giving me any such option. I remember I had to downgrade before to get the backup restored (something went haywire in the setup assistant, and I couldn't restore a backup from iTunes there)... If it was possible to go to iOS 5.0 rather than 5.0.1 I would just do the same thing again, but iOS 5.0.1 isn't an option. I attached a screenshot. Hopefully Apple can get this nonsense sorted out; I think iOS 5 might be the root of this, somehow.

Image as drop-down text link -- image doesn't appear

(Using Robohelp X5)
Wondering if anybody has had anything like this happen before
and can explain it for me???
First line of topic is type <h1>. At the end of the
line I have an icon that is a link to drop-down text.
Here's where it gets weird. I compiled the help and displayed
the .chm. Looked at the topic, the image doesn't appear, but is
clickable (and works properly). Used the 'print' option from the
.chm to print to .pdf. The image appears in the .pdf.
Looked at the code, can't see anything wrong with it.
Back in the wysiwyg editor, selected the last character of
normal text plus the clickable icon, copied and pasted in place (so
now have
<text2><dropdown2><text><dropdown>)
Removed <text><dropdown> (the original content),
edited the code to use the proper 'name' attribute (because it was
modified on the paste), recompiled, ran the .chm, everything
displays properly (the image is there).
Note: I was having similar problems with it earlier, think I
fixed it the same way, and everything was okay for a few compiles,
then started having the problems again.
At this point, as far as I can see, the .html is the *same*
as it was before, but now the image appears in the .chm. Colour me
totally confused :-)
Anybody have any insights as to why this could be happening?
Thanks!

Change what you have now:
a:link {
    color: #4E8E98;
    text-decoration: none;
a:visited {
    text-decoration: none;
    color: #4E8E98;
a:hover {
    text-decoration: none;
    color: black;
a.dark:active {
    text-decoration: none;
    color: #FFF;
a.light:link {
    color: #DCDBE1;
    text-decoration: none;
a.light:visited {
    text-decoration: none;
    color: #DCDBE1;
a.light:hover {
    text-decoration: none;
    color: #776153;
a.light:active {
    text-decoration: none;
    color: #FFF;
a.dark:link {
    color: #4E8E98;
    text-decoration: none;
a.dark:visited {

a.dark:hover {
    text-decoration: none;
    color: black;
a.dark:active {
    text-decoration: none;
    color: #FFF;
To this:
/**MAIN LINKS**/
a {text-decoration: none}
a:link { color: #4E8E98;}
a:visited {color: #4E8E98;}
a:hover { color: #000;}
a:active, a:focus {color: #FFF;}
/**SPECIAL LINKS**/
.light a:link {color: #DCDBE1;}
.light a:visited {color: #DCDBE1;}
.light a:hover {color: #776153;}
