Library Fonts not loading in CS3 under Snow Leopard

I just noticed this: Most of the fonts in the HD/Library/Fonts folder are not being read by CS3 applications. This includes old favorites like Verdana, Trebuchet, Arno Pro, etc. These fonts are being read by Apple apps like Pages and Text edit. Anyone else having this issue?
I think a solve would be for me to have my Font Management application load these fonts.
Details:
I installed Snow Leopard on a freshly erased drive. Updated to 10.6.1. Installed CS3 Design Premium. Ran the Adobe updates (which was much more difficult than it should have been!)
Thoughts, ideas, suggestions?

CS 4 and Cs 3 they load as expected on my Mac Pro? Tr resetting the preferences.

  • External hard-disk not working with firewire under Snow Leopard

    Hi. I have a LaCie d2 external hard-disk that has Firewire 800, 400 and usb2. I previously used it on my old (angle-poise) iMac connecting using the Firewire 400 socket. I've just a got a new mac with Snow Leopard and I thought it would we best to connect to the LaCie with Firewire 800. However when I do this, the disc mounts ok, but browsing in the Finder is really slow and copying files from the disk to the imac seems to work at a really slow rate (less than USB1 speed) if at all ! However, I switched to using the USB2 connection instead and it works like a dream. What gives ? Is Firewire in Snow Leopard buggy ??

    There's no problem with the drive.
    Maybe true, and the drive would probably work fine with Leopard. One thing that's obvious is that Apple did make changes in the way that FireWire works in Snow Leopard. Many drives and drive manufacturers work well with SL, but there have also been reports of firmware issues by Western Digital and other companies.
    Have you checked with your vendor to see if they are offering a firmware update for your drive?
    BTW, I got a new FW case a few months ago while at a Fry's electronic store. The brand new USB2 and FW400 cables worked fine. The FW800 cable did not, but another cable came to the rescue. Just saying...

  • Safari load times slower under Snow Leopard?

    Has something recently changed?
    Safari used to be very snappy- suddenly pages are taking forever to load.
    The first days I ran SL- all seemed fine.
    The last few days- major hang-ups.
    I have three machines and it happening across the board.

    Greetings,
    It's probably the Top Sites and Cover Flow features caching all those web pages; that can slow things down quite a bit. And if you don't clear your History before you quit every day, that cache just keeps getting larger. You might want to consider disabling those features and removing their cache of web page preview images.

  • Font problem with MX under Snow Leopard

    Anybody know what might cause an app built with Director MX not to display an installed (not embedded) custom font under Snow Leopard?
    The program was built quite some time ago but was tested under previous Mac OS X.x versions and worked fine. What might have changed that could cause this problem?
    Complicating this is that I don't have Snow Leopard myself to test it directly, but here's what I do know:
    The font is definitely installed and available to other apps.
    Everything else about the app works fine.

    I noticed the same jumbled text problem.
    When I went to look at Font Book, I see that those fonts are no longer installed. It must've happened when I loaded Snow Leopard last weekend.
    Anyway, I went to reinstall fonts, and I see I've got a bunch that got uninstalled. But when I try to reinstall them, like Calisto and Caligula to name the first couple I tried, Font Book reports that there were serious errors when trying to load them.
    Does anyone have insights into the vague message: "System Validation" as the serious problem? I don't see a way to get more details about the problem than that.

  • I recently upgraded to Mavericks from Snow Leopard. Does Snow Leopard still exist on my Mac? If so, is it possible to restart under Snow Leopard in order to run PowerPC apps? If not, is there an OS available in 64 bit that supports PowerPC apps? Mav ***.

    I recently upgraded to Mavericks from Snow Leopard. Does Snow Leopard still exist on my Mac? If so, is it possible to restart under Snow Leopard in order to run PowerPC apps? If not, is there an OS available in 64 bit that supports PowerPC apps? Mav ***.

    The only reason I upgraded to Mavericks was because my Snow Leopard OS was 32 bit, which I was told would support only 4GB of RAM.
    That wasn't quite right. You can put in as much RAM as your Mac's hardware supports. The division is in the apps themselves. A 32 bit app can't use more than 4 GB or RAM. A 64 bit app can use much more.
    For example, as a 32 bit only version, Photoshop CS3 can't use more 4GB of RAM, no matter how much you actually have installed. CS4 or later can use all the RAM you want to throw at it.

  • Shared library will not load

    My Shared library will not load.  I see it in the list, but when I click on it the status indicator runs for a while and then it just goes back to the local library.

    I also have this problem. I have a mac running os snow leopard and my dad has a pc running windows vista. he has no problem taking my music via home share, but I cannot load his library. I click on his library and it loads for a little while and then bumps me back to my local library.

  • I have a big problem with Lion and PGP. After upgrading from snow leopard to lion I cannot access my PGP drive which was generated under snow leopard. PGP does not start but gives a notion that lion cannot work with my PGP version. Solution?

    After upgrading from Snow Leopard to Lion I cannot access a PGP drive which was generated under snow leopard. PGP does not start. When I try to start I just receive a message that Lion cannot work with PGP. How can I now access important and confifential informatio which I have stored in PGP (snow leopard). Do I have to move back to snow leopard. If so, how can I do this? 

    If you have this product,

  • Under Snow Leopard I used a WD My World NAS to back up my Mac Pro (Mid 2010). When I upgraded to Lion I am unable to access the backup because the NAS does not yet support AFP. I have now bought a Time Capsule and want to transfer the old backup onto it.

    Under Snow Leopard I used a WD My World NAS to back up my Mac Pro (Mid 2010). When I upgraded to Lion I am unable to access the backup because the NAS does not yet support AFP. I have now bought a Time Capsule and want to transfer the old backup onto it.
    How can I recover the NAS back up to put on my new Time Machine.
    Talking to Apple Support Adviser was a waste of time on case number 239647273
    Any thoughts or pointers?

    Keep the old OS around and just kick the tires and test new OS. Apple has a history and habit of breaking support in things like this.
    You can use TimeMachine as one level of backup, and even there there were changes with Lion, I would always recommend foremost backup clones of every volume. And clone (SuperDuper etc) can be stored on something like HP NAS Media Server which also was supporting TimeMachine, iTunes - until Apple made that harder and more their own proprietary format.

    Rather than "upgrade" I would clone the system, and do a clean install, then allow Setup Assistant to import your files.

  • EHD under snow leopard not seen under maverick

    Hello Apple Community,
    I've recently bought a brand new Macbook pro under Maverick. The External Hard Drive, used on my old Macbook air under snow leopard, is not recognized by Maverick. That's strange because it is seen and can be used on the other laptop, but not on the new one.
    In the finder preferences, the box "show EHD" is checked.
    But when I use the disk utility, it sees only the hard drive on the laptop, not the EHD...
    Does anybody have a solution for this?
    Thank you>

  • ITunes will not sync audio to iPad under Snow Leopard

    When I try to sync audio (music and podcasts) from my MacBook Pro to my new iPad, nothing gets transferred.  They are listed under the iPad heading at the left of iTunes, but have a gray chasing-arrows icon to the left of the names.  (I tried to include an image, but it doesn't work.)
    My contacts and calendar do get copied to the iPad.
    If I boot from a different partition running Lion, with the same home folder, iTunes does sync audio files.  But I'd like to get it running under Snow Leopard.

  • HP OfficeJet Pro 8500 Wireless second paper tray under Snow Leopard

    He there, I have a strange problem with the second (extra) paper tray from the Office Jet Pro 8500. I have setup the tray and activated the option on the driver page on the computers, but no results. No paper is loaded from the tray and there is an error that no paper is loaded in the machine. The printer is connected via ethernet (and a time machine) and I am running snow leopard on all the machines that are connected to the printer. I have installed the latest drivers from Apple and from HP. I know that the paper tray is working, because when I make a copy on the machine localy and force him to use papertray number 2, then there is no problem.
    Does anybody have the same problem?? Thanks

    I also just tried connecting my 8500 wireless printer directly via usb and then downloading the HP printer drivers from Apple downloads and reinstalling.
    The install hangs nearly forever on the final step, but eventually says the driver install was successful. However, then when connected via usb, I am unable to print. Printing works when you reconnect via the wireless on the 8500.
    So connecting via usb and reinstalling HP printer drivers does not solve the issue. And it's puzzling, because the list of supported printers under Snow Leopard lists the Officejet Pro8500 Wireless as supporting both printing and scanning.
    Somebody has it wrong.
    If this scanning problem continues very long, I may be forced to uninstall Snow Leopard, because my printer is brand new.

  • PhotoShop Elements 6 for Mac under Snow Leopard?

    Hi. Apple's new operating system for Mac, Snow Leopard is being released tomorrow.
    According to the Snow Leopard wiki, Photoshop Elements 6 does not work under Snow Leopard:
    http://snowleopard.wikidot.com/
    I contacted Adobe to ask if they had any plans to update Photoshop Elements 6 to work with Snow Leopard.  The response I got from their support was that Adobe Photoshop Elements was programmed before Snow Leopard and so they weren't responsible if it didn't work.
    I am pissed because of course Photoshop Elements was programmed before Snow Leopard.  EVERY software program was. Most of my software (and I have a lot of apps) are being updated for Snow Leopard by their developers.
    I'm writing this post just to make sure that Photoshop Elements doesn't work under Snow Leopard. It's possible whoever posted that Photoshop Elements didn't work under Snow Leopard could have been having an isolated problem.
    So, if anyone tries Photoshop Elements with Snow Leopard, please post here whether or not it works.
    Thanks a lot.

    No, there are no significant known conflicts with Snow Leopard, so that's not your problem. Have you deleted prefs since the upgrade? Was this an upgrade in place rather than an erase install? If so, go to your username>library>preferences and delete:
    com.adobe.Photoshop.Elements.plist
    Adobe Photoshop Elements 6 Paths Folder
    Adobe Photoshop Elements 6 Settings Folder
    Opera preferences
    repair permissions and see if it's any better. Do you have any third party content installed in PSE? There may well be conflicts with that, if so.

  • Canon iP6700D Tray Choices Disappear Under Snow Leopard

    I have a Canon iP6700D. In 10.5 and earlier, one could select between the automatic sheet feeder and the cassette through selections under "Quality and Media". Those options seem to have disappeared under 10.6.1 using the September 11th Canon printer driver. Nosing about in Google, others seem to have the same problem with this and other printers under Snow Leopard. I've tried uninstalling the printer and re-installing but it hasn't helped.
    Settings made under 10.5 and saved still appear in Snow Leopard, and are still able to access the cassette and the sheet feeder, but I can't find a place to CHANGE that for saved or for new settings.
    Can anyone tell me where to find this setting, or where I might find a patch that will fix the problem?

    The v10.26 driver for the iP6700D still has the Paper Source menu under Q&M on 10.6. I can only think that something is conflicting with your installation of the driver. I would trash the contents of the BJPrinter folder, located in HD > Library > Printers > Canon. Then install the v10.26 driver again and see if the menus are present.
    There were two versions of printer drivers available for 10.5, v5.8.3 and v10.xx. If you had the version 5 installed and had presets based on this driver, then they will not work correctly with the v10 driver on 10.6. You should Delete these presets and create new ones once you get the Q&M menu appearing on your install.
    Final note. You should be posting this question on the Snow Leopard forum. This forum is for Leopard printing and scanning issues.

  • Problems in creating PDFs from Indesign under Snow Leopard

    The Acrobat PDF Printer does not work under Snow Leopard anymore.
    Adobe gives this alternative:
    http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/509/cpsid_50981.html
    After an update to Acrobat 9.1.3 PDFs should now be generated through a new "Save as Adobe PDF" option under the "PDF" button in the system print dialog.
    This does not at all work in Adobe Indesign with it's proprietary print dialog. The PDF-Button is only available in the system print dialog (I know it is accessible from within the Indesign print dialog panel, yet clicking on the PDF button and selecting "Save as Adobe PDF" is ignored).
    To make things worse: If you follow the advice to delete the Acrobat Printer from the "Print & Fax" panel this deletes the ADPDF9.PPD from the Library/PPD folder! You even cannot produce .ps files and distill them manually. Fortunately I was able to restore the ADPDF9.PPD from a backup.
    This is really annoying: How can Adobe state everything works fine under Snow Leopard if you are not able to create PDFs any more? Or did I miss something?

    Hi.
    make this.
    1. Go to the Apple> System Preferences...
    2.  Open the "Print & Fax" preference panel.
    3. Select the Printing tab, to get to the printers list.
    4.  Select the printer "Adobe PDF 9.0".
    5. Click the options and supplies button.
    6. Choose the Drive.
    Now I have reinstalled Leopard. but first like a Drive I have listed only a "Generic Printer".
    I tried to reassign it ADPDF9.PPD but is not recognized and automatically resets to a generic printer.
    So after some  tests that I have found here
    http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/509/cpsid_50981.html
    I have reinstall leopard
    This has been my problem.
