Keynote font and format changing upon paste

Hello Apples.
I have a strange bug with Keynote. When I copy and paste text or graphics from one slide to another in the same presentation, the formatting gets lost. It never happened before. For example, if I copy a text field that is in Arial, when I paste it on another slide, the font switches to Gill Sans and changes size. Also, if I copy a colored rectangle, when I paste it, it switches back to being filled by that horrible default grey mess. I have resported to using "duplicate", then editing the resulting text.
Is there a setting that I may have changed? Thanks in advance.
I am using Lion and Keynote '09.

Still no solution. If I adjust a page that was created in iWeb 08 (now converted to iWeb 09) and republish it in iWeb 09 some font sizes and formatting can change. Any suggestions of how to combat this problem would be gratefully accepted. Thanks

Cannot Paste Duration data--format changes upon Paste!

I'm pasting some tabular data and one column is Duration (Ex: 01:19:00) and when I paste the data in values like 01:19:00 become 1:19 AM.
I need the actual durations so they can be computed.... how can I get Numbers to stop automatically changing these values???
Thanks,
Robert

For those which don't want to pre-format a table, I wrote this script which protect the durations.
CAUTION :
as the developers forgot to include duration in the list of formats settable thru AppleScript, I apply the format text. You will have to change it to duration 0:00:00.
--[SCRIPT iTunestoNumbers]
Enregistrer le script en tant que Script : iTunestoNumbers.scpt
déplacer le fichier ainsi créé dans le dossier
<VolumeDeDémarrage>:Users:<votreCompte>:Library:Scripts:Applications:Numbers:
Il vous faudra peut-être créer le dossier Numbers et peut-être même le dossier Applications.
Copier des données dans iTunes. Si elles contiennent des durées,
aller au menu Scripts , choisir Numbers puis choisir “iTunestoNumbers”
Le script les colle dans une table d'un nouveau document Numbers
dont certaines colonnes sont définies au format texte pour préserver les dites durées.
Il vous faudra retoucher le format en spécifiant durée, 0:00:00 dans l'Inspecteur de cellules.
Je suis désolé mais les dévelopeurs ont oublié d'inclure durée dans les formats applicables à l’aide d’AppleScript.
--=====
L’aide du Finder explique:
L’Utilitaire AppleScript permet d’activer le Menu des scripts :
Ouvrez l’Utilitaire AppleScript situé dans le dossier Applications/AppleScript.
Cochez la case “Afficher le menu des scripts dans la barre de menus”.
Sous 10.6.x,
aller dans le panneau “Général” du dialogue Préférences de l’Éditeur Applescript
puis cocher la case “Afficher le menu des scripts dans la barre des menus”.
--=====
Save the script as a Script: iTunestoNumbers.scpt
Move the newly created file into the folder:
<startup Volume>:Users:<yourAccount>:Library:Scripts:Applications:Numbers:
Maybe you would have to create the folder Numbers and even the folder Applications by yourself.
Copy datas from iTunes. If they contain durations,
go to the Scripts Menu, choose Numbers, then choose “iTunestoNumbers”
The script will paste the datas in a Numbers new table
whose some columns are defined as text to protect the duration entries.
You will have to adjust the format to duration 0:00:00 thru the Inspector of Cells.
I apologize but the develpers forgot to include duration in the list of formats settable thru AppleScript.
--=====
The Finder’s Help explains:
To make the Script menu appear:
Open the AppleScript utility located in Applications/AppleScript.
Select the “Show Script Menu in menu bar” checkbox.
Under 10.6.x,
go to the General panel of AppleScript Editor’s Preferences dialog box
and check the “Show Script menu in menu bar” option.

Apple Mail font and colour changes while typing!

I'm having an issue whereby the font and colour changes back to the default while I'm typing an email!
I have several signatures. When I select a signature and start typing, at apparently random moments, the font reverts to the default!
This will happen when I'm typing a line and, when it changes, if I cmd-z to undo my typing character by character - at some random point it suddenly reverts back to the signature font and colour.
Has anyone else experienced this, and is there a cause and/or solution?
Thanks,
Geoff

Fonts and layout changes

Hi everyone,
tried everything I could think of, but to no avail. Could anyone have a look and tell me why the fonts, layout of the buttons and drop shadows change in a PC Internet Explorer? In Safari (Mac) it all looks ok. In Firefox (Mac) it looks ok, except for the logo placeholder. I'm using web safe fonts and colours. iWeb '09 (3.0.1) Hmmmmm..... Any suggestions are appreciated.

Font and size changes in design view don't appear

I am using the trial version of Dreamweaver CS3 on my G5 Mac
(Leopard), and whenever I make changes to the font and font size,
it does not appear in the design- although the code is there (in
both the css that I create or specific to the paragraph) and then
it shows up when I save and go to browser. Is there some secret to
making the changes viewable as they are being made rather than
having to go to the browser every time before one can see them? It
doesn't seem very practical to only be able to view them in a
browser and not while you are making changes so you know if it is
what you want... can someone please help me with this? I'd like to
buy CS3, and use Dreamweaver, but it won't save me any time if I
have to keep going back to the browser before I can see the changes
I've made.

How are you making the changes - using the properties box in
CSS mode
- or in an external style sheet.

Font and color changes not executed

In setting up a new blog page, I've selected a specific color for the titles of my entries, and a typeface. But on the blog page itself, once it was published to MobileMe, the title is gray and the font is not what I selected. Why is it not responding to the changes I've made, and saved? Thank you!

Yes, I have cleared the browser's cache and no change. I'm trying to think here...when I'm making these changes, I am doing it in the "entries" section, because in the "blog" section these changes are not available for me to make.
blog template has three entities: 1) blog summary 2) blog entries and 3) blog archive
changes that you made in 'entries' section won't reflect the blog summary/archive because they are rendered separately.
You can change 'titles'/head lines font face in blog summary/archive by slowly click on the title three times (all titles will be hilited) then you can change font face.
but, you can not change the color, because the titles are hyperlinks to link back to the entries. you can change their colors in theme/domain.site2's xml or you willing to post edit blog summary/archive CSS file.

Fonts and Formats

Hi
Something is wrong with my fonts management in text editing apps, i.e. TextEdit an Mail. If I choose a font or style from the lists in the Font dialog from the Format menu, nothing happens to the selected text. I can however change the size, both from the Fonts list and using the +/- keyboard commands. - AppleWorks 6 fonts seem to work normally. - What is wrong, and what can I do?
Kind regards - Hening.

Hi ~Bee,
thank you for your fast reply. Yes, I am highlighting the text; as I wrote: "nothing happens to the selected text"

Calendar font and color change no reason

I am attempting to create a calendar with the new Iphoto and I have to say it is harder to use then the old one. I am trying to manually enter birthdays. Typed couple of entries with Hoefler Text size 8 and worked. All of a sudden tried typing in another date, same month, and Font changed color to orange and is larger but same Hoefler Text setting and size 8 still appear. What am I doing wrong? how do I fix?

There are a few animated titles with fonts that cannot be changed. Lens Flare is one of them.

I have tried in personalized settings for changing into different format and color of the dashboard. Is there any way we can configure these things in Settings/Personalize options, if so please let me know where. If this is to be done in WebDynpro with customization, provide me any inputs on this.
Thanks,

Lost fonts and formatting

I created a site with iweb and uploaded it to GoDaddy using their own FTP. Unfortunately, I lost all of the font information (type, size and color). Any suggestions?
I also lost the photos, but I was able to re-load them and now they are working fine. Is it possible to embed the fonts or pull a file over with the upload?

using their own FTP
Doing that most likely resulted in lots of your files not being uploaded. Use a real ftp app instead. Some tips:
