I cant seem to post a picture here but they are dis proprtionate to each other and ALL over the place, I set them up to be set up a certain way and it keeps changing. It is really getting me angry!!!! Any help??

Good grief!!!! I see what you mean now.
Hold down the option key>Finder>Go>Library>Preferences. Trash the com.apple.finder.plist file, repair permissions and restart your computer. Empty the trash.
Open up your messed up document folder and click on the gear like icon in its menu>Arrange by - select your arrangement>Show View Options. Click the Use As Default button. Your arraingements should now stick.

How can i set my fonts to keep webpages viewable they keep changing size?

i set my fonts with tools. but when i go to webpages it will show very small.
How can i keep my webpages set to a certain size font to make it viewable?

You may need to disable the hardware acceleration if you have a problem with font display.
Tools > Options > Advanced > General > Browsing: [ ] "Use hardware acceleration when available"
You can increase the String pref <b>layout.css.devPixelsPerPx</b> from 1.0 to 2.0 in 0.1 steps to see what works best.<br />
In current Firefox versions this pref is a String value parsed to a float and allows to fine tune the dimensions of all elements (user interface and web pages) more precisely.

Messages Buddies window keeps changing size

The buddies list in Messages keeps growing longer and longer for me. Is there a way to make it stay the size that I want it to be?

Hi,
It is a bit odd that you have that many Buddies that have gone Idle rather than showing any that are Away.
However it does not seem you have that many Buddies in total that would make a difference.
I notice that in the View Menu > Show Buddy Pictures is Off.
This as you will have found out does allow more Buddies in the space you have allowed. (each line is only as big as the Video and Audio Only icons)
If you make the Buddy List smaller than what you have shown (i.e. hide the Off Line group title bar and a few of the Buddies) does the Scroll bar appear ?
I don't Display the Off Line Buddies and also don't use the Off Line Group from them either. I am wondering if your setting are what makes the Buddy List dynamic in size.
My test.
I tried setting my Buddy lists with no pics.
I also set the Off Line Buddies and as a Group and "turned" the reveal triangle so they were hidden like yours.
I they set a couple of other AIM Buddy Lists to Off line.
Then I resized the buddy List to not shoe the Off Line Groups Title bar and also a few buddies up from that.
I then set the Off Line accounts to Available and logged them in.
In my Buddy list more Buddies dropped out of sight and the List did not resize.
Can you open a Finder window ?
Then go to the View Menu and chose Show Path Bar.
This will add some info across the bottom of the Window.
Can you also Select View Menu > Show View Options and Select the Modified option in the Show Column choices.
Now in the Finder > Go Menu hold down the ALT key and select the Library item that appears.
Navigate to the Preferences
Find the com.apple.ichat.plist one.
Alter the size of the Buddy List Or chose to Show Pictures and see if the Modified Date Changes (it should show the Time fro today's change).
The setting you are changing (window Size and what the window contains) are written to this .plist - or they ar if you Own like you should do and have Write Permissions (as well as Read ones) if the file settings are correct.
If you have lost Ownership of this File and changes will not be written to it.
It may be the Permissions have changed and you have lost the right to Write to it.
To find out, do a Get Info (CMD + i keys together) when the file is highlighted.
At the bottom of the Info panel is the Ownership and Permission Details.
Your shortname should appear in the list with Read and Write Permissions.
If you highlight this line and then use the Cogwheel icon at the bottom it should list "Make yourshortname (Me) the Owner" but it should be greyed out as it is already done.

Changing font without changing size with paragraph stylesheet

I need to change the font of many paragraphs without affecting different text sizes within the paragraphs.
I have a huge document...45,000 phone listings/400 pages. Each business listing (as opposed to residential) has a unique text string after the phone number ( |||B ) which will eventually be deleted. I want to do a Find/Change on that text string and change the entire paragraph it's in to a different font without impacting the different font sizes within the paragraph. But when I try to set parameters for the stylesheet, I can't just change the font, I have to change the size also.
Using a character stylesheet won't work, as it would only change the font of the text string itself.
Is this impossible using style sheets? Can it be done with a script? I've never used InDesign scripts so I'd need detailed instructions if that's the answer. Or am I doomed to manually change the font on 3,100 paragraphs in my document?
Thanks to all you keeners out there for any help you can offer.

I'm a little confused.
Do you currently have paragraph styles defined? I would probably approach this by defining a paragraph style for the main listings. You can do that by selecting some type and holding the Alt (Opt) key while clicking the new style icon on the panel, or by selecting new style from the panel menu. That style should be what is applied to all the text to start.
Define a second style for the business listings. You can base this on the first style, and change only the font. You don't need to enter a new size unless you wish to do so. Any attributes you don't change in the new style definition will be preserved, and will change to match the base style if you edit it.
Do your find/change and in the change format dialog specify the new paragraph style, but leave the actual change field blank. This can be done a plain text search. You will need two passes, one to format the paragraphs, and one (with the change format field cleared) to remove the suffix.
A GREP expression would probably work, too, but my GREP is rudimentary and I can't seem to find an expression to find |||B -- my attempt was (.)|||B$ which I thought would find any character followed by |||B at the end of the paragraph, and I would replace with $1 to preserve the character before and delete the suffix at the same time as changing the format, but it's picking up all sorts of stuff in the middle of the paragraph, so I suspect the pipes have a special meaning.
Character styles should be used to change only things that are special and need to be different from the standard paragraph definition, not for formatting the entire paragraph.
Yes, I have paragraph styles defined. I used them, along with a bunch of other unique text strings, to create separate paragraphs of each type of info in each listing, and then style them. I then used the same search strings to remove the paragraph breaks (and the search strings) to put the listings back to together into a single paragraph (but you have to break the link to the style before you remove paragraph breaks or your text will reformat itself back to the style on the previous paragraph.
The main problem is that I neglected to make a special find/change on the address and phone number to make them bold. Now I have 48,000 paragraphs (listings) with nothing but that |||B search string at the end of each of the business listings. And it took me two full work days just to get to this point, so I really don't want to go back to square one at this point.
I know this is hard to describe and understand. I really appreciate your help though!!

Firefox fonts keep changing colors.

When I go to a webpage and try to start reading.......the text starts changing colors and the font changes to weird looking symbols, like an alien font and can not be read. If I highlight the text.....it will correct....but will return to alien within a min. But the biggest problem with firefox is it's inability to scroll smoothly. I have used firefox for about six yrs. now and this problem has never been fixed. I have used firefox on many hardware platforms and many windows operating systems.....firefox has always had a horrible scroll. I appreciate any help...but have tried the option settings for yrs. now to no avail. I'm afraid my frustration will take me to a different browser.

Thank you very much. That seems to work very well. I really do appreciate it. The same thing has been going on with my girlfriend's rig. I also found this...."I was trying to get the same impression of ease and speed Chrome scroll has from Firefox 17 @ Linux, AMD64 and after trying several setups here is how to make your Firefox to give even better feel than Chrome:
1. Set mousewheel.min_line_scroll_amount to 40 (WAS 5)
That was a great start though Firefox scroll will still appeared jerky. (Chrome has that value lower, but I liked it at 40)
2. Set general.smoothScroll and general.smoothScroll.pages to false
Smooth scrolling is bad for the IT professionals giving extra pressure to the eyes and Chrome doesn't use it in the same way as Firefox does. Now we're close but still all the pages in tabs are a bit jerky.
3. And now the final ingredient. It appears that all the hieratic scroll was caused by image discard check routine. Do not turn it off just set image.mem.min_discard_timeout_ms to something really large, I set mine to 2100000000 (WAS 10000)
After that increase image.mem.max_decoded_image_kb to at least 512K (WAS 256000)
Done. In my case (Gentoo, amd64) this setup changed how the page within tab scrolls (very smooth now), how FF switches between tabs (it's now very smooth too, chrome like) and overall impression of how all the opened tabs are performing was increased. May be the change is not same within different systems but it's worth a try if you want to improve FF responsiveness. "
I tried that and it seems to tame the scrolling down quite a bit. Not sure what it all does....but it allows me to keep firefox and I do thank you.

Convert word document to PDF - FONT keeps changing

Good afternoon,
I am the coordinator of the CRC Manjimup, I have been working on our business plan. Under our marketing brand style guide I have to use a font purchased on the internet and added to my computer font...I am very concerned as if I try to convert the file to PDF it changes the font.

Mail fonts keep changing

I type an email using Helvetica or Arial, send it off and all looks fine. When I see a copy of the email in someone's response my email looks terrible as the fonts have all changed to some other type like Times Roman or some other similar ugly font.
I can't fathom why this would happen, has anyone got any ideas as this is very frustrating?

You can spedify fonts all you like, and the only ones you can really control are your incoming email message fonts. You can try to control the outgoing fonts, but the recipient's preferences on reading their emails will supuercede your appearance wishes. IMHO.

Environment fonts keep changing back to default

In order for my UIs to look good on all my deployed systems (usually windows xp or 7) I change all the environmental fonts (Tools>Options>Environmental>Fonts) to Tahoma (and, of course, set the init file to use tahoma for all these fonts). Lately I've been noticing that every once in a while I will open LabVIEW and the fonts will be changed back to their defaults. Has anyone else had this issue or does anyone have a good work around? It is frustrating because I usually don't notice this has happened until I've finished aligning multiple elements and then realize I have to change the font and align them again.
Note: I'm developing in LabVIEW 2012 on a Windows 7 pc.

Hey Gollum,
I found what seems to be causing your issue. There is a bug in LabVIEW 2010 and later that causes custom font tokens to be overwritten when any other change occurs in the LabVIEW.ini file. The Corrective Action Request (CAR) ID Number is 256978. The issue was fixed in LabVIEW 2013 (http://www.ni.com/white-paper/14541/en/).

Adjoining cells keep changing size

Have added text to cells on several columns. The text can be of varying lengths. At first cells fit text, but by the time I finished a lot of the first column cells have stretched way out of proportion.
Have tried various things, but fixing one column just upsets another.
Is there any way to make all the cells fit the text, without disrupting the whole table? Any help would be appreciated as I've spent ages trying to fix it, without success. Thanks.

Columns are columns, they are not freeform with varying widths in each row. Think of them as columns, like in a newspaper. The entire column is a set width, regardless of the amount of text on any particular line.
You have a few choices:
If you have "wrap" selected for a cell, the text will never exceed the bounds of the cell, it will wrap to create multi-line text within the cell. The row height will change accordingly to accommodate the text. You can go back and reduce the height of the row but then you will not be able to see all of your text.
If you do not have "wrap" selected, the text can exceed the width of the cell if the cell to the right of it is blank. If the cell to the right is not blank then the text is truncated for display so it does not go outside of the cell (the text is there, you just won't see it all). You can increase the width of the column to accommodate the extra text. This increases the width of each and every cell in the column.
You can merge cells but I don't recommend doing this.
Resize column/row to fit content means that the column/row size will be increased or decreased to fit the largest thing in the column/row. So if one cell has a lot of text and others have little, it will be resized to fit the larger text and the other cells will have extra space.

Contact Groups Keeps Changing

Trouble with contacts since iPhone 7.
When I first used it I noticed that my contacts included everybody I've ever emailed or talked to or was even copied on an email that I sent or received. Way too many and not like it was on my iPhone 6.
Under Contact Groups I saw that there were checkmarks for "All Exchange", "Contacts", "Suggested Contacts". So I removed the checks on all but "Contacts" and then I had what I really wanted which is the Contacts I have in Outlook.
But, it keeps changing back on it's own. Every day or so, I have all these thousands of unwanted Contacts and I have to go in and remove the checkmarks again.
Please help.
Thanks,

I've had this problem ever since iOS 8 was released.
all these updates and still no fix. What is going on Apple?

My iPhone 4S keeps changing/ resetting the brightness to a very low level and I have turned off the Auto brightness button and restarted for weeks.

My iPhone 4S keeping changing the brightness on its own and I have already turned off the auto brightness etc and restarted multiple times for several weeks. I can't see the screen to answer calls etc . Really annoying

Is there any way to turn off the auto formatting in Pages? I just want to type a letter and add pictures and titles, and Pages keeps changing font sizes and doesn't let me "Do it my way". I HATE this!

Is there any way to turn off the auto formatting in Pages? I'm using a blank document, so I figured I could write my letter and add pictures any way I wanted to. But NO! Pages keeps changing the font size! I typed a large heading as a title, and when I try to change to a smaller font for the body of the letter, it changes the size back to the larger size! I am getting SO FRUSTRATED! I've spent over an hour trying to get the stupid program to let me just type my letter! Can anyone help?

The only one left is the "unsubmitted text" dialogue, which would not be a problem if I were not a Facebook user; after updating the "Richard is..." field (which does not require a manual submit to actually send) I get the above message. This is obviously Safari just not realising that the info has been sent and is therefore (I imagine) one for Apple themselves to answer!!
You're welcome Rich. Glad to help.
Not being a Facebook User, I'm not sure how to respond to the error situation. However, this would be something to report to Apple as a bug via the Safari Menu. First, open to the page in question, then select "Report Bugs to Apple".

How can I reset the font type and size on my email. It changed after I updated to Firefox 5.0 and I can't get it back.

After updating to Firefox 5.0 the font changed on my email. I checked, and the default setting is what I had put in before the update but it's not working. How can I get my email to use the font and type size that I chose? The one that's currently being used (since after the update) is so tiny one can hardly see it. My email program is through yahoo but there doesn't seem to be a way to change it at the email site. I'm not terribly PC savvy so please respond with a detailed/explicit answer. Thanks for any help you can give me with this. I have Windows XP and use Firefox as my browser.

Hi again...,,yes, I did try the "reset zoom" on the email compose message page and nothing happened. I'm not familiar with add-ons. Went to the address you suggested (DefaultFullZoomLevel) but don't know how to use it. Also, I don't want to enlarge the text on all web pages.....just the email page. By the way, if it makes a difference, I think I forgot to mention that I use AT&T/Yahoo webmail....not Outlook Express or Thunderbird or any other email program. I'm not familiar with those and don't want to change email programs. Thanks again for trying to help with this. I'm beginning to think this problem is "unfixable" and considering changing back to a previous edition of Firefox (IF that's even possible).

Font settings keep changing when I restart Mail

I've noticed over the past few days that whenever I restart Mail, my font settings keep changing, so I have to keep going back in and adjusting them.
Anyone else having this problem, or know how to fix it?
I did a search in this forum, but didn't see anything about this.
Thanks!

I should clarify that this happens after I restart my computer, then open Mail. If I close Mail, then reopen it, without restarting, then this does not happen.

My font keeps changing size on it's own
