Lost fonts - two upgrades

I have now done two upgrades - iMac and MacBook - and on both the fonts no longer appear in programmes. Font Book shows zero fonts even though there are 200plus in the folder.
Should I rebuild????And why is Leopard doing this ....

Hi Peter,
Are you sure that Font Book is not doing something in the background ?
Open activity monitor and see if Font Book is responding.
I'm having a horrible time with Font Book. I imported around 6000 fonts this morning, it took hours to import, and 30 minutes to disable them all.
After that Font Book behaved like you describe, but it was clear that Font Book was choking...
I had high hopes for Font Book becoming usefull this time, but I'm back to Font Explorer...

  • Lost fonts (maximo and others) after upgrading to snow leopard

    Did anyone else notice missing fonts after upgrading and/or updating?  I opened up a file created before the upgrade and I was notified of about 5 missing fonts...not cool.
    Thanks!

    mhh - bad news.
    To the background: In Pages there are some templates. I took one of them (2-3 years ago) and redesigned it for my use. I didn't changed any Fonts. Some changes for borders etc - nothing more.
    Before I installed the fresh Lion installation it works. On the harddisk was installed 10.2 - 10.7 (with all the upgrades).
    My opinion is, that the Font is a part of the templates or a part of OS X 10.x. I have no problem to reinstall the font (all DVD's are working), but where should I start searching for the font ;-)
    To buy the font is one way ... the last path.

  • We have two IMac computers.  Do I need to purchase two upgrades to Lion or can I use one upgrade on bo†h on my computers?

    I have two IMac computers.  Both running the latest version on Snow Leopard.  To upgrade to Lion, do I need to purchase two upgrades or can I use one purchase for bo†h computers?
    Thanks,
    Alice

    As I understand the as yet unconfirmed rumor by me, is that once you pay for a single copy of Lion, every computer you have that's authorized under your Apple ID can download it, no limit on number.

  • How do I recover a "lost" font in Pages?  The font file appears to exist in my MS Office area.

    How do I recover a lost font in pages?  The font management process seems very opaque, lots of areas on the hard drive with font folders.  None seems to match the list of fonts I can pull down from the font menu in Pages.  At the moment, the font I need is Century Gothic, which does reside in the MS Office area, but nowhere else that I can find.  Would greatly appreciate help!
    thanks much,  Eilert

    Thanks for the idea, fruhulda.  I just checked (Jul 18) and the "missing" font is there.  However, yesterday I tried a full restart of my computer, and it seemed to fix (?) the problem, so I still am not sure what happened.  At any rate, the problem is now gone.

  • Word docs don't display fonts since upgrade to 10.6.

    Word docs don't display fonts since upgrade to 10.6.  Got this error message in Console:

    Thanks but I searched and searched there.  Nothing listed that addresses this issue.  Am I the only person to upgrade to 10.6 and have a problem with seeing type in Word afterwards?  Does anyone understand what the error message means?

    My Firefox start page had a check box for searching Canadian pages which was lost when I upgraded to 4.0. How can I get this back?

    The default about:home page in Firefox 4 doesn't give such features. You can set the home page to http://www.google.ca to get that possibility. The results page has a "Pages from Canada" link in the side menu at the left.

  • HT1338 If I have 2 macs do I have to buy two upgrades?

    If I have 2 macs do I have to buy two upgrades?

    No. You may re-download and install on all the computers you own. The easiest way is to save the Mountain Lion installer before you run it. Put a copy into your Downloads folder.
    Make Your Own Mountain/Lion Installer
    1. After downloading Mountain/Lion you must first save the Install Mac OS X Mountain/
        Lion application. After Mountain/Lion downloads DO NOT click on the Install button.
        Go to your Applications folder and make a copy of the Mountain/Lion installer. Move
        the copy into your Downloads folder. Now you can click on the Install button. You
        must do this because the installer deletes itself automatically when it finishes
        installing.
    2. Get a USB flash drive that is at least 8 GBs. Prep this flash drive as follows:
      a. Open Disk Utility in your Utilities folder.
      b. After DU loads select your flash drive (this is the entry with the mfgr.'s ID and size) from the left
          side list. Click on the Partition tab in the DU main window.
      c. Under the Volume Scheme heading set the number of partitions from the drop down menu to one.     
          Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled.) Click on the Options button, set the
          partition scheme to GUID then click on the OK button. Click on the Partition button and wait until
          the process has completed.
      d. Select the volume you just created (this is the sub-entry under the drive entry) from the left side
          list. Click on the Erase tab in the DU main window.
      e. Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled.) Click on the Options button, check the
          button for Zero Data and click on OK to return to the Erase window.
      f. Click on the Erase button. The format process can take up to an hour depending upon the flash
         drive size.
    3. Locate the saved Mountain/Lion installer in your Downloads folder. CTRL- or RIGHT-click on the installer and select Show Package Contents from the contextual menu. Double-click on the Contents folder to open it. Double-click on the SharedSupport folder. In this folder you will see a disc image named InstallESD.dmg.
    4. Plug in your freshly prepared USB flash drive. You are going to clone the content of the InstallESD.dmg disc image to the flash drive as follows:
      a. Double-click on the InstallESD.dmg file to mount it on your Desktop.
      b. Open Disk Utility.
      c. Select the USB flash drive from the left side list.
      d. Click on the Restore tab in the DU main window.
      e. Select the USB flash drive volume from the left side list and drag it to the Destination entry field.
      f. Drag the mounted disc icon from the Desktop into the Source entry field.
      g. Double-check you got it right, then click on the Restore button.
    When the clone is completed you have a fully bootable installer that you can use without having to re-download Mountain/Lion.
    Note: The term Mountain/Lion used above means Lion or Mountain Lion.
    As an alternative to the above (you still have to do your own download of Lion/Mountain Lion) you can try using Lion DiskMaker 2.0 that automates the process of Steps 2 through 4.

    Not if all your synced media like apps and music are in your iTunes libary. The backup does not included synced media. See:

  • Can I buy and use two upgrades?

    Hello,
    have Creative Suite 5.5 Production Premium. I want to upgrade the product.
    Can I buy and use two upgrades: Creative Suite 6 Design Standard
    and Creative Suite 6 Production Premium?
    Second question: if I make my upgrade Creative Suite 5.5 Production Premium (which has included, among othersAdobe Premiere Pro) to Creative Suite 6 Design Standard (which does not have Adobe Premiere Pro), will I still be able to use the applications contained in the Creative Suite 5.5 Production Premium (Adobe Premiere Pro), or it will be deactivated?
    Thank you

    What would you want with 2 upgrades if you have only 1 qualifying product? That's simply not possible since the upgrade serial is tied to the serial number of the previous product. Otherwise your CS5.5 will remain fully functional when you install CS6.

  • Lost 2GB after upgrading to mavericks

    Seems that I need to ask Apple to credit part of my new MacBook AIR purchase !  I lost 2GB after upgrading to Mavericks.  Used to be at over 6GB of RAM after booting before running my apps, now I come to the same point at 4GB !!  Anyone else have the same issue.  I changed nothing else !

    Mavericks uses RAM much more efficiently than any other previous version of OS X. Mavericks now has a memory compression feature that will compress the memory occupied by applications that aren't being actively used and give the freed up RAM to the application that needs it the most.

  • I2nd Gen Ipod touch lost songs after upgrading to IOS 4.2.1.

    I have 2nd Gen Ipod touch and after upgrading to IOS 4.2.1, all the music were wiped out and I can't seem to upload or sync it anymore.  Tried all the fixes out there in the web to no avail.  Appreciate the help.

    I am having the same problem.  I tried using a backup from two months ago, all of my music and apps are lost.  However, my iPod DOES remember my settings for the default apps, and my contacts are still there!  Tried any fix I could find to no avail, would certainly appreciate any advice!

  • Missing fonts after upgrade

    I've noticed that a key group of fonts I use on a regular basis are not being listed in my programs, however they are being listed in Font book as being installed.  This has only been since I upgraded to Lion. 
    The two fonts I am specifically looking for are calibri and Myriad Pro
    Any suggestions?

    Good idea about getting it from a backup. Never done this before, fingers crossed that I have a recent backup!
    I'll see if this works.
    Cheers
