Missing Fonts - Every Time

Every time I open a Keynote Presentation, even one I created on my computer, I get the message about missing fonts. How can it be missing fonts when I created the presentation on the same computer I'm now opening it on? Is there any way I can fix this? Can I install the fonts, for example?

I was able to fix this problem by copying the /System/Library/Fonts, /Library/Fonts and /Users/MyUserName/Library/Fonts folders from a Time Machine backup of a clean installation of Leopard.
The difficult part was that I needed to copy the folders first to my Desktop and then reboot to Single User Mode. In single user mode I used the command line commands to move away the old folders and then moved the restored folders from my desktop in their places.
After that I rebooted and reinstalled iWork '08.
-Problem solved-
As for the reason why this happened, I figure that something went wrong when I migrated old user accounts and Applications after installing Leopard (clean install).

  • Why doesn't the PS CC font preview show font families any more? Now i have to scroll through 4,400 fonts every time!

    You mean font previews themselves in the list? You can set the size and disable via Type > Font Preview Size.

  • Font Book disables fonts every time I restart my computer

    First, some info on my computer:
    - OS X 10.9.3
    - Adobe Creative Suite 5.5 version 7.5
    - Office 2011 14.4.3
    - Suitcase Fusion 5 16.2.0
    As a graphic designer, I've accumulated thousands of fonts. In an attempt to clean this up, I recently purchased Suitcase Fusion 5. I transferred the fonts by going into Font Book and selecting "Restore Standard Fonts." I then took the Macintosh HD; Library; "Fonts (Removed)" folder and added those to Suitcase Fusion 5.
    Then I went back, and added about five of the removed fonts back into Macintosh HD; Library; Fonts — just because they are fonts I use frequently — as well as the Microsoft folder of fonts.
    Now, for some reason, every time I start my computer (I shut down every night before leaving my office) about half of the Microsoft fonts are disabled by font book. The next day I enable them and everything works well and they all show up in both my Adobe and Office programs, but I'd really rather not play that game every morning. Again, almost all of the fonts being disabled are in the Macintosh HD; Library; Fonts; Microsoft folder, but only until the Ms or so, after which point they all show up as enabled and work just fine. And then there are a couple of outliers I've marked with an asterisk, that are just in the typical Macintosh HD; Library; Fonts folder that are also being disabled, the most confusing one being ThirstyRoughTextures.ttf, because the rest of the Thirsty Rough family is working just fine. (This single Thirsty Rough file is the only of the five-or-so fonts that I added back into my library after restoring it to standard fonts that is acting up. The others show up in all programs just fine.)
    Anyhow, does anyone know why this might be happening, or how to resolve the issue? Any input would be great, thanks!

    I'm fed up with Font Book and ready to remove it.
    Just to keep it easily handy, put the Font Book app on an external drive. All other supporting system files for it will still be on the drive, so using it again rather than a third party font manager is as simple as copying FB back into the Applications folder.
    It is essential after deleting Font Book to follow the steps in my article to remove the abandoned Font Book database. Even with the main Font Book app removed from the drive, if the database exists, OS X will keep trying to read and use it, and it will interfere with all other font managers.
    which seemingly only activates fonts once I open up that extension
    Those are extension panels Suitcase adds to apps they've written them for so you don't have to go to the main interface in order to turn fonts on or off. It's a convenience thing to speed up access to your font sets.
    what will happen to programs like Microsoft Office that aren't compatible with Fusion?
    If you use a panel in the Adobe apps to turn any fonts on or off, all apps system wide will see the changes in available fonts since that's how it works with any manager. Or, you can launch the main Suitcase interface to do the same thing.
    MS Office has an annoying quirk I haven't seen with any other app. It will not pay attention to any fonts you've activated or deactivated after Word has been launched. That's not a Suitcase issue, it's any font manager. Office simply does not keep tabs on available fonts while in use. To see fonts you've activated after Word is already running, you have to quit Word and relaunch it. Same with turning fonts off. Doesn't matter that they're not available any more. If they were when you launched Word, they'll continue to show in the list. Attempting to use one of course doesn't work. It types in Arial, or something, but not what you chose since it can't.
    Is FontBook irrelevant and Office/any other program still just utilizes the actual HD/Library/Fonts folder without it?
    When font management is working as it supposed to, all apps (save Office) will change the list of fonts you can use as you turn them on or off. It used to be, way back in Tiger, 10.4 (before 10.4.3) and earlier that any fonts in the System or main Library folder were available all the time with no way to control them, other than physically deleting fonts from those folders. This is still true of the System's Fonts folder.

  • Missing font after 10.5 upgrade

    I had to do an erase & install when upgrading from 10.4 to 10.5. Once done, I found that at least one font (Bradley Hand) was missing. (Every time I open iWeb, I get an error message saying that Bradley Hand is missing even though I have edited my web pages to use other fonts).
    A guy I spoke to on the Apple support line said that Bradley Hand is normally installed as part of OS 10.5, so something must have gone wrong in the installation. He then said I should archive and install the system software again which didn't help. Can Apple not just send me the font for installation? Any other suggestions?
    Cheers, MEHHK

    Have you looked directly in the folder Library/Fonts to make sure the font is really missing (and you are not just getting a bad message from iWeb)? If you open TextEdit and do Format > Font > Show Fonts, is this font really missing from the list?

  • How to find the missing fonts while running the script?

    hi,
    I need to create a script to find the missing font. not only for that. Actually i created a script to read the file properties. but i have a problem while running the script.
    I have put "User Interation Level" to never interact. Even i need to check wheather each file have "missing fonts". mean time i never stop the script.
    Is It Possible???
    Regards,
    SubhaOviya

    Here's a shot of the Find Font Dialog:
    Papyrus (highlighted in the list) is missing, and there's a yellow warning triangle to show that. Fonts that ar not missing have an icon to show the type of font. You'll also see it shown as missing in the "Info" box at the bottom of the dialog.
    If you use the Replace With dropdown you will only see fonts listed that are installed on the system. In order to actually use the missing font, rather than substitute a different font in its place, you must obtain and install the missing font on the system.
    Are you seeing something different when you open Find Font?

    Missing "7-Zip File"
    Hello,
    I haven't been able to update Firefox since 10.01 or 10.02 because every time I try I get the same message the "7-ZIP File" is missing. Then the update fails. I've submitted this problem to Mozilla Firefox and, got an immediate reply of " they are researching your problem".
    Well, you can tell how long that has been. Is there anything I can do, or any where I can go to get the file I need?
    Any constructive help would be very much appreciated! I'm not sure If I'll ever be able to find where this is located. But I do appreciate help just the same.

    It is possible that your anti-virus software is corrupting the downloaded files or otherwise interfering with downloading files by Firefox.<br />
    Disable your anti-virus software temporarily to see if that makes installing work.
    Download a fresh Firefox copy and save the file to the desktop.
    *Firefox 11.0.x: http://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/all.html
    Uninstall your current Firefox version, if possible.
    *Do NOT remove personal data when you uninstall the current version or you lose your bookmarks and other data because all profile folders will be removed.
    Remove the Firefox program folder before installing that newly downloaded copy of the Firefox installer.
    *It is important to delete the Firefox program folder to remove all the files and make sure that there are no problems with files that were leftover after uninstalling.

  • Lightroom crashes every time I try to change the font color of my identity plate

    I use the LRB portfolio plugin to create my website. Every time I try to change the color of my identity plate, lightroom crashes immediately. I can change the font and size without the problem, only a color change causes the crash. I tried to trash the plugin, but it still behaved the same way. Can anyone help me with this problem?

    Hi Sean,
    thanks for answering. No, it crashes anyway. I tried changing the identity plate color in all different modules. I was able to change it once when I had just bought a new computer and installed Lightroom, but now I can't. I wonder if there are any cache files or anything causing this. Unfortunately I don't know enough about this to fix it myself. I wondered whether LRB is causing a problem simply by having it installed, but as I said, after I removed it from the Web Galleries folder, the problem still occurred. Is there any way to recreate the identity plate in Photoshop (same font and size etc.) and reimport it into Lightroom? I need to finish my website and my name is sol light, it is barely legible. Any fix or workaround would be appreciated.

  • Flash crashes every time I try to use Bickham font

    Do other programs have similar issues displaying that font?
    If so, than

  • Every time I open Itunes or plug in my Ipod or Ipad I get an error message that the registery settings for burning cds and dvds are missing and to reinstall Itunes.  i've done this several times but the message won't go away.

    Every time I plug my Ipod Nano or Ipad 2 into my computer I get the same error message.  It says that registery settings are missing for importing burning cds and dvds due ot other burning software and to untinstall itunes and reinstall Itunes.  I've done this several times and I'm not having any trouble importing cds at all and I can't make the message go away.  It always comes up before Itunes will open.

    I'd start with the following document, with one modification. At step 12 after typing GEARAspiWDM press the Enter/Return key once prior to clicking OK. (Pressing Return adds a carriage return in the field and is important.)

    I just installed the yahoo messenger. Every time I do that my extensions go missing. How do you fix this instead of having to keep re installing firefox?

    hello, this sounds like the files in your [[Profiles|profile folder]] that store the information about your extensions might have become corrupted. please go to ''firefox > help > troubleshooting information > profile - show folder...'' then windows explorer should open up your profile folder. in there look for the files named extensions.ini, extensions.sqlite, extensions.sqlite-journal (and in some cases also extensions.txt, extensions.rdf). delete or rename those files and quit firefox, they will be regenerated the next time you launch firefox.

  • Help: Every time I do something in Font Book, default browser fonts get messed up

    Every time I change anything in Font Book (enable, disable fonts for example) all my international default fonts in FireFox and in Safari get so messed up, that it's hard to read sometimes. The default fonts suddenly become substituted by other fonts. I tried completely reinstalling the system fonts folder (fetched it from MAC OSX installation CD) but no result. I tried disabling all the custom fonts, and then enabling again the ones I need - didn't help.
    Every time this happens, I need to  restart my Mac in Safe Mode, and restart again, so that it deletes it's font cache. Then all is Ok, until the next time I do anything in Font book.
    This is really annoying, please help!
    Thanks
