Message app font not loading

In Message app on my iMac alongside the name of the message contact there's a line of dingbats indicating I have a font conflict issue. I have no idea which font is missing. Also the contact name above the message is highlighted in red indicating another font issue. All this has happened since Yosemite. Help!

Back up all data before proceeding.
Launch the Font Book application and validate all fonts. You must select the fonts in order to validate them. See the built-in help and this support article for instructions. If Font Book finds any issues, resolve them.
Start up in safe mode to rebuild the font caches. Restart as usual and test.
Note: If FileVault is enabled in OS X 10.9 or earlier, or if a firmware password is set, or if the startup volume is a software RAID, you can’t start in safe mode. In that case, ask for instructions.
If you still have problems, then from the Font Book menu bar, select
          File ▹ Restore Standard Fonts...
You'll be prompted to confirm, and then to enter your administrator login password.
Also note that if you deactivate or remove any built-in fonts, for instance by using a third-party font manager, the system may become unstable.

  • App Store Not Loading READ HERE!!  DO NOT RESTORE YOUR DEVICE!!

    Ok Applecare Senior Advisor Tad just confirmed with me that the problem people are having with the App Store not loading is an apple issue with there servers, ITS NOT YOUR IPAD so don't go restoring it!   It's not happening to everyone however but they are looking into it, its really hit or miss.  He said it should only be a 24 hour or so problem then everything should be up and running again.  i have two new ipads and 2 iphone 4's and everythng works fine but my ipad (figures).  They are actually going to be calling me tomorrow to follow up on the issue.  I will let everyone know if I hear more!

    And just so everyone knows this started for me late last night.  I shut my device off this morning hoping it would be working this morning, but not luck obviously.  So I kept researching all the forums, googling, and searching on twitter for solutions or possible solutions.  I tried everything, hard reset, changing date, signing in/out, you name it I did it EXCEPT for a restoration.  Now the first woman I spoke to from applecare this morning walked me through all these steps (even though I had already tried them).  She told me to do a restore and start as a new device.  Well before I had even spoken with her I read several places that people had already tried doing the restores and it didn't work so I wasn't going to listen to her and I didn't do it.  So I called back applecare and finally got transfered to Tad and (sorry in advance Tad!!) I basically lied to him and told him that I DID DO a restore even though I had in fact didn't.  So that's when he put me on hold and basically spilled his guts that it was the apple servers.  So i asked if I had to restore my device again or anything and he said no and that it would take about 24 hours or so for the problem to be fixed and then he procedded to take down my number and said he would call me tomorrow to find out how I my device was doing.  So keep posting to the forums folks!! They are listening, he said he had started to see a number of complaints coming in on this topic.  And by the way this is my first time posting in the Apple forums, I hope I at least helped some of you out!!!

  • My text messaging app is not working PLEASE HELP!!!

    My text messaging app is not working at all is a blank screen when I open it! Help!!!

    No its a well known bug with iphones caused by their over complication of things and their complacency that their users will buy the phones on looks alone irrespective of its basic functionality.
    Suggestion 1 - The most common suggested solution seems to be: iMessage needs switched off on all your devices and switched back on after a rest. I found that this did NOT work.
    Suggestion 2 - Having a Wi Fi Signal seems to confuse iMessage to send an SMS as a text or as an iMessage. Turn off WiFi on your phone and manually send as text message. Slow, I lnow!!
    Suggestion 3 - Move away from any wifi source ie out of range.
    Suggestion 4 - Send an email, or a letter. Its more personal!!
    20 Minutes later - still not sent 2 short texts.
    Apple are very complacent and disdainful of their user community. Not what Id expect but this is a global corporation with the same business ethics as an Oil company or a car company. Profit not function.

  • Itunes app will not load on iphone 4s since update

    Since I downloaded newest version ios 7.0.2, on my iphone 4s, the itunes app will not load.  Starts to open up then closes.
    I have tried:
    method to double click home button and swipe to close app
    holding home and power button down to shut down and restart
    wiped phone and reinstalled
    Wish there was way to uninstall the app and reinstall.
    thx

    Try this open your music app and access the store from there first, once done then you can go to the iTunes store app, try it and see if it works

  • POL-3013 Message file is not loaded

    Hi,
    I have posted a publication to the server and I have succeeded also. I am able to update some tables that I have created. When I rebooted my machine I founded a popup message DMAgent failed to start during the startup. When I try to login to the local database on my machine I am getting an error message ": POL-3013 Message file is not loaded" When I searched the docs it says check ur username and password but I am good. I even restarted the machine and this time DMAgent started successfully and still I am having the same error. Any replies appreciated..........

    Thanks for your support and replies to figure out the error and resolving it.

    I also forgot to note that this problem also persists with the new iBooks application. I cannot get past the 'Get Started' screen or access the iBooks Store. Again, all top bar menus are unresponsive.

    The App Store on my iPad running iOS 6 is not loading... It doesn't crash it just sits there and loads. Everything else is working and I have already tried turning it off and back on. Any ideas?

  • TS1702 Apps wil not load on my iPad. on either.

    Apps will not load on my iPad. When I click on them to download, it stays in the "waiting" phase, and won't actually load. I can't delete the icon either. Any suggestions?

    Perform a "reset" on the device by pressing down and holding the home button and the sleep/wake button for up to 30secs. until you see a black screen with the Apple logo, then release.
    Then test to see if it solved the problem.

    The iMessage is built right in the SMS app itself. Apple will automatically check whether the person that you want to send SMS to has iOS 5 and with iMessage turn on, if yes then your SMS Send button will change from green color to blue color to indicate that you are sending iMessage.
