Hi, my wife uploaded new fonts to her macbook and now can not see any writing on her screen, can I fix this?
System fonts deleted accidentally. Does anyone know how I can fix this please?

Thanks Mike,
Absolutely right. I restarted in Safe Mode. This enabled me to see the actual text on the screen. Then I backed up. Then reinstalled. All fixed.
Thanks again,
Chris

  • My 06' Macbook Pro crashed with vertical, green pixelated lines and now will not advance past the turn-on screen with the apple filled with green lines as well. Then, it says to hold down the power button to restart. Help?

    My 06' Macbook Pro crashed with vertical, green pixelated lines and now will not advance past the turn-on screen with the apple filled with green lines as well. Then, it says to hold down the power button to restart. I have tried several times to get it past this point but tnothing helped.
    I have an appointment at the Apple store today, but was wondering : will all of the information and files on my desktop be lost? Or is this a logic board problem?
    Any help is much MUCH appricated.

    I'm not sure, if you're out of warrenty it'll cost quite a bit for the replacement of the logic board replacement...unless you have apple care. you could ask apple to try and recover your hard drive but i'm not sure.

    What does that have to do with Digital Publishing Suite?

    I just downloaded the new OS X Mountain Lion, and my iMessages status won't change!! How do I fix this?

    if you set up only iMessage account, you cannot change the status, because iMessage has no status.
    You should set up another service (for example AIM) with status service. Initially I didn't understand this "issue" too, but it is correct.

  • The new itunes is slow and I can not see my musics anymore. How can I have my musics listed like they were before?

    I have the same problem with new 11.0. Presentation of album data now seems scrambled in 'Album' screen. Instead of albums in alphabetical order with all album tracks I now get albums in the order of the Album Artist. Unless the album artist is EXACTLY the same, the tracks on any one album can be spread all over the screen (hopeless for compilations). Does anbody know how to get the Album screen to sort solely on the Album title?

  • TS1363 Just installed the new ITunes (running Windows 7) and now it cant see my IPhone

    Just installed the new ITunes (running Windows 7) and now it cant see my IPhone (which it saw fine just a few minutes ago). So I can't do a backup etc. What's wrong and how do I put it right?

    Well, without my doing anything, the situation has now righted itself. I came down this morning, switched on the computer and the IPhone - and now ITunes recognises the IPhone (it is listed under "Devices", which it wasn't before)
    I notice however that the IPhone doesn't get listed under "Devices" until the backup process is complete. So maybe this points to what may have been going on before? Except that the reason I was worried was because the first thing I wanted to do after dowloading the new version of ITunes is make a backup - and I couldn't because ITunes didn't "see" the phone.
    Anyway, not the first time I have had the eerie feeling that my relationship with IWorld is not in my control.

  • IMAC can not see any wifi networks at all?

    IMAC can not find any wifi network at all. A few days ago the Imac suddenly had no wifi and on turning the WIFI on and off it became apparent that when it scans for wifi it can see no wifi networks at all. I have several other computers and they all see the wifi networks fine. I assume it is a hardware issue but the hardware test I preformed comes up with no errors. Anyone got any ideas?

  • Wifi was working, and now does not discover any networks

    I had wifi working, and now it does recognize any of the 6 networks that everything else discovers, any sugestions?
    I read all related posts, did the software update to latest version, restarted several times, and did wifi reset. Actually my statmenet above is not entirely true. It does discover the network and connects when I place the device on top of a router, but moving to 50cm away from it and the connection disconnects and there are no networks discovered. I have tried it with 2 different routers, both of them are working well with my blackberry and laptop - and this was also working with the ipad before.

    Try a reset. Press & hold the Power and Home buttons together for 10+ seconds, ignoring the red power-off slider, until you see the Apple logo.
    If this does not work, then restore the iPad to its factory settings and start again.

  • New iMac, migrated from macbook and now mail won't work. Tried re-installing operating system, still doesn't work. Can anyone help me to get mail working? thanks

    I just bought a new iMac and I thought that it would be simple to migrate from my MacBook.
    I have a time machine back-up so I decided to migrate using that. Everything seemed to instal pretty well with the exception of mail.  To begin with I had 2 mail icons, then I started to read some forums and checked that i had the one I wanted in the applications folder, deleted the other and then downloaded the new operating system.  Mail had to be force quit first and even when the download was complete Mail still wouldn't open or run. The only thing I can do is compose a new message, but I can't see my inbox at all.
    It's really frustrating and I would love to know in a simple step by step guide how to get mail up and running with my existing migrated emails in it.
    If anyone can give me some advice that would be great.
    thanks in advance.

    Problems such as yours are sometimes caused by files that should belong to you but are locked or have wrong permissions. This procedure will check for such files. It makes no changes and therefore will not, in itself, solve your problem.
    First, empty the Trash.
    Triple-click the line below to select it, then copy the selected text to the Clipboard (command-C):
    find ~ $TMPDIR.. \( -flags +sappnd,schg,uappnd,uchg -o ! -user $UID -o ! -perm -600 -o -acl \) 2> /dev/null | wc -l
    Launch the Terminal application in any of the following ways:
    ☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
    ☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
    ☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Terminal in the icon grid.
    Paste into the Terminal window (command-V). The command may take a noticeable amount of time to run. Wait for a new line ending in a dollar sign (“$”) to appear.
    The output of this command, on a line directly below what you entered, will be a number such as "41." Please post it in a reply.

    When you reboot your machine hold the track pad button down while it's booting.

  • TS1398 iPhone can not see any wifi signals anymore.

    Used to work fine, have updated, reset, rebooted etc but still nothing. Other iPhones in the house all still OK. HAve tried several locations that it used to connect to wifi. Have worked through all the help pages and tried all those ideas. Process of elimination confirms the issue is with this 4S handset. Anyone got any other suggestions?

    My phone can see networks with 1 bar,(or 2 when 5 feet from my router), but i am unable to connect. After trying every concievable solution, including several restores both via the menu and itunes, i gave up and called Apple. The rep agreed that it most certainly must be a hardware problem and assured me that as soon as they recieved it back in post i would be sent a "replacement" phone. She actually couldn't apologise enough for the inconvenience of being without a phone for 5 DAYS, as this is how long the turnaround would be, i was assured. This suggests to me that indeed there is a bad problem with the built in wi-fi as the same or very similar problems are all over the forums. I of course don't expect to actually get a phone back for 10-12 days but miracles may happen...>>>>

    It is quite obvious that you people at apple keep your eye on the forums, why is it your company never listens to it's customers in them. Better support for your products which cost us plenty, would be a good place to start. Having 2 dead ipods, 3 working ones and a iphone from apple, bears testimony that i am a loyal customer. How about returning the loyalty by putting out products that work first time - every time...

  • I can not bookmark any page, nothing happens when I select bookmark this page. My old bookmarks are there and working, but cant add anything new. I have tried the suggestions in the troubleshooting section, and nothing there works. Please help.

    Hi Mariah ~
    It's Shaunn, the original poster. Thanks for your posting. I'm glad I'm not the only one that's having this problem.
    Now that you mention it, I'm having the exact same problem on Facebook as well, when I play Family Feud.
    I wish someone would investigate and post a solution to this problem. No-one from Playlist has responded, and no-one "Officially" from Firefox either.
    So Mariah, I appreciate you and your post.
    If you find anything out...from anywhere...would you please let me know. You can post it right here and I'll get an email from Firefox.
    I'll do the same for you.
    Enjoy your day and good luck.
    Shaunn

    Restore the Snow Leopard bootable backup/clone or the Time Machine backup. As for making ML work, I've not a clue since I don't do windoze or access things remotely. You'll have to wait for one of those gurus to pop in or just post what's happening when you try at the ML forums.

  • TS3716 I downloaded the new version of iTunes today and now iTunes won't recognize my iPod. Windows can see it but iTunes can't see it so it won't sync.

    Before the update was applied all was fine. I rebooted both the PC and the iPod with no success. I reinstalled iTunes and rebooted with no success. I tried different cables and different slots for the cable, none worked.

  • TS1368 My new computer has windows 8 and I cannot connect to itunes anymore...how do I fix this?

    Does anyone know how to fix this problem? I can't access any of my music that I've purchased through itunes.

    Found a solution on another thread....very easy and it worked:
    go to c:\program files (86x), apple, apple product support and copy the file QTMovieWin to c:\program files (86x), itunes
    Hope this helps anyone else with this problem.
