Safari Doubles My Punctuation Marks..

Does anybody here know why Safari often doubles my punctuation? Here is an example:
Hello,, Bob.. Send it via smpt..mac..com.. I can’’t fix it..
It usually happens when I hit the next keystroke (even the space bar) after typing the punctuation mark, although I can back space and delete the extra character. The page also often freezes while I’m writing text, so I’ve started writing my text in Tex-Edit Plus and just pasting it into the text field in Safari. Even when the page freezes, I can usually still view pages in other tabs. I think that the freezing might happen often when I move by clicking the mouse in a text field and/or use the tab key to change text fields. Have you heard of this before? Thanks.

This problem was solved in another thread by David Gimeno Gost.

It turned out to be a corrupt Launch Services database. Thanks David!

Change user's OU with punctuation mark doesn't work by Rename User View

Hi,
I have problem with moving user between OU by Rename User View when punctuation mark in name of OU is used.
I have own WF that assign user to specific OU depending on value of Select component. When value of this component is changed (against previous value) I call Rename View, that assign user to new OU. For OU without punctuation mark Rename View works OK.
After finishing WF with punctuation mark in OU this Error appers:
java.lang.RuntimeException: There is no such object on the server.
But creating new AD account (by role assignment) in OU with punctuation work OK. In select component is rule that replace puctional character in correct form.
Select component:

Hi,
I discovered following:
- if name of OU in AD is without space (e.g. test,sample) so DN record is test\,sample and user is moved into this OU.
- if name of OU in AD is with space (e.g. test, sample) so DN record is still test\,sample and user isn't moved.
So problem is with empty space. How can I preserve space in DN name? I found something in documentation but I doesn't work for me.
+Special Characters in FieldValues
If you have a field value with a comma (,) or double quote (") character, or you want to preserve leading or trailing spaces, you must embed your field value within a pair of double quotes ("field_value"). You then need to replace double quotes in the field value with two double quote (") characters. For example, "John ""Johnny"" Smith" results in a field value of John "Johnny" Smith. +
(from IDM Business Administrator's Guide, p.77)
Guided this information I put value of slctOrganizationalUnitUzivatele into "". But this didn't work. Is good idea to have space in DN?
Thanks for help.

Adding punctuation marks above text letters

I frequently use the Welsh language in my letters and e-mails and have not yet found a way of placing the circumflex(^) as a punctuation mark over certain vowels, which can convey a quite different meaning to a word if added or omitted.There is a Welsh option in the Keyboard viewer, but this seems no different to the British version.
The mark(^) is, of course, available on the 6 key uppercase, but how do I place it OVER the vowel in question?
Glad of any suggestions,
Diolch yn fawr!
Hen Gymro.

Caution
It's not sure than a character available in TexEdit may be used in AppleWorks.
TextEdit is Unicode aware while AppleWorks is not.
The chars with a circumflex usable in AppleWorks are:
Â â Ê ê Ô ô Û û Î î
Here are some which aren't:
Ĉ ĉ Ĥ ĥ Ĵ ĵ Ŝ ŝ Ŵ ŵ Ŷ ŷ
For my own use, I built a table of favourites for the Character Palette tool.
In this one, I put the "accented" chars usable in AppleWorks.
So I may enter them by a simple drag and drop.
It's a pity but with Mac OS 10.4.x, the good old double click is no longer usable to enter a char from the palette when AppleWorks is active.
Some one decided to disable it because some users complained because double clicking an Unicode character gave an odd insertion.
This is what in France we describe with the formula (throw away the baby with the bath's water).

How do I replace quotation marks with double angle quotation marks, still keeping the word in the mi

Hi,
Does anyone know how to replace quotation marks with double angle quotation marks, still keeping the word in the middle?
For example: I search for a word with quotation marks by typing in: (")(\w+)(") in the "find what" field. What should I type in the "change to" field?
I'd be very grateful for answers!

It's much simpler: find " and replace with " (make sure that 'Use typographer's quotes' is enabled in the preferences).

Keyboard punctuation marks suddenly changed

I&m a little baffled. When I was using my iPad with the wireless keyboard this morning I was typing along with problems but after a jont in my backpack the punctuatiion marks that correspond to the number no longer match.
2 should be a quotation marks but comes up as @
6 should be the emporers and but now comes up as ^
7 should be an apostrophe but comes up &
8 should be a bracket but comes up *
9 should start the bracket but now (
Other punctuation marks around the keyboard are also switched around. I didn&t turn off the Bluetooth setting when I put it in my bag, so I&m guessing that some combinations of keys switched the layout.
At the bottom to either side of the space bar are keys I can press to change the language but there&s no way I&ve found to revert it back to the layout I used before. Any suggestions?
thanks
sws

Good mooring to you both. I tried both your suggestions and neither worked, so I opted for the easy way out; I took out the batteries, wated ten minutes and put them back in. That did work. I can kick myself for not thinking of that sooner. Still, I did learn a bit about setting the keyboard layout, so that you all for taking the time to write me back.
Cheers,

Japanese punctuation marks on iOS

Our Japenese translators noticed that punctuation marks (dot and comma) are not displayed correctly in our Adobe AIR application when running on iOS. The marks are displayed vertically centered instead of bottom aligned. It does not reproduce on Android and desktop. I'm using device font to display the labels. Any workarounds?

Hi,
So there are fonts that can have all types of glyphs. In our specific example both Chinese and Japanese glyphs. In such a case a character code could resolve to both Chinese and Japanese and with both choices the runtime may pick either of the glyphs based on a certain logic. If however you make sure and use the right font name then the runtime knows exactly where to look. Try changing the font to a Japanese font, I think that should work.

Indesign ME CS6: Punctuation marks change direction when exporting to PDF

When exporting to PDF (for press) - some punctuation marks (! & ") beahve as if they're "left -> right" (in the PDF only!) instead of "right->left" - as they appear in the open file.

If I understand this correctly, then before you opened a PC-sourced INDD, this never happened? And now it happens with all new files? Was that PC-sourced InDesign file from an English non-ME install of ID?
If doing so is not a big deal for you, I would almost want to suggest the "Nuke it from orbit, it's the only way to be sure" approach coined by Sigourney Weaver's character in Aliens. I.e. something happened to your ME install by simply opening up a non-ME file, and clearing prefs didn't fix it, so I'd be ready to uninstall, run the Adobe Clean tool, and reinstall.
http://helpx.adobe.com/creative-suite/kb/cs5-cleaner-tool-installation-problems.html
I hope that I'm wrong, and that there is some kind of preference that can be tweaked to get this to work correctly. I'd start by removing Font Explorer X entirely. It's also worth trying to make a new user in OS X and seeing if a fresh user experiences the same issue.

AE text replacement script, Hebrew characters and punctuation marks

Hi,
I'm using a script to replace text on one of my AE projects. When I use English characters it work prefect, the problem is once I'm trying to replace the text with Hebrew I get small arrows (as shown in the attached screen grab) before and after punctuation marks.
Any idea what can cause this kind of behavior, is it script related or the base AE file?

These appear to be glyphs that should be substituted. Could be something to do with specific text flow or multi-variate glyphs that are substituted based on the context of neighboring characters. In any case, short of manually fixing it I don't think there is any way to get this right. AE is quite limited in dealing with any of this stuff and in the past you actualyl needed the Middel East versiosn to get correct RTL writing at all...

Text Prediction and punctuation marks [N97]

Hi!
I've been using 6310i for a veeery long time
Recently I decided to buy N97.
And I have a question concerning the Text Prediction feature.
Very often when I insert a word I'd like to use one of punctuation marks. For example a comma or a full stop.
So after my desired predictive text is inserted I use the "1" button.
And if the punctuation mark is not what I want, e.g. a comma appears and I want a full stop then I press the * button repeatedly to get a desired punctuation mark.
Recently I installed Custom Dictionary application from Nokia Beta Labs.
And when I edited a list of all custom words that have been added I was surprised to see that there were a lot of words with commas, full-stops, question marks at the end of exactly the same words.
So I made some tests.
It seems that when you insert a desired word and you use the "1" button to insert a punctuation mark and then you use * - the words is automatically saved to the custom dictionary with this punctuation mark at the end.
Do you think this is intentional or maybe I am using the feature incorrectly?

Thanks guys for your posts!
@The_Funkateer
If you imagine that the same word is automatically saved to the custom dictionary but with various punctuation marks at the end - you have the answer.
You can notice that always the last used punctuation mark is used.
And sometimes when you insert a word and a punctuation mark and you use * you will see that a totally different word with the same punctuation may appear (if the word has the same combination of keys).
I suppose and I think I'm right that N95 treats "word + punctuation" as a completely new word and moreover the phone saves it automatically and secretly to the custom dictionary even if we don't want them to be saved.
@chanchan05
Sure, but it has nothing in common with the beta version of Custom Dict.
In my case the Dict works as expected.
It just helped me to discover what is on the list of my custom words and I was really shocked to see over 2000 words (each word repeated several times with different punctuations at the end).
You can make tests to notice what happens every time when you are writing a message.
Insert a word, add a punctuation and use * several times.
Then use the Custom Dict app to edit the list of custom words.
@foxmeister
Thanks for the info.
As I can see you are now using the N900.
Does it work better in N900?

Voice recognition in iOS7 no longer recognizes the spoken word "period" as a punctuation mark. Any solution to this?

iOS7 changed a feature of voice recognition.
When composing message using voice recognition (not Siri, just the "microphone" icon typically in either iMessage or e-mail) the voice recognition app recognizes spoken words like "comma", "question mark" and "exclamation mark" as punctuation. For example if you said "Hello exclamation mark how are you question mark", the voice recognition system would type "Hello! How are you?" This is perfect and works very well.
Prior to iOS7 it used to recognize the word "period" as well. If you said "Hello period how are you question mark" it would respond with: "Hello. How are you?" Now, after the iOS7 update, if you say "Hello period how are you question mark", you get "Hello period how are you?" typed back to you. I've tried saying "dot" instead, and it will place a dot in the text, but it doesn't recognize it as a period: "Hello.how are you?"
Is there some setting I'm missing? Is there a different voice command to get a period?
Edit: UPDATE. **SOLVED** Apparently there are two ways this can happen. 1.) UK Keyboard or 2.) UK Siri. I did not have the English (UK) keyboard enabled - just plain "English", but I had turned on the English (UK) Siri because I thought he sounded a little like Jarvis. Anyway, apparently, that's what did it. As soon as I turned Siri back to English (United States) saying "period" works. Note: If you want to keep the UK Siri, you have to say "Full Stop" to get a period.

Thanks for the heads up! That was driving me nuts, too. I was using the Australian English because she sounded cuter than Siri. "Full stop" works for Australian as well.
Now if I can just figure out why the voice to text suddenly can't understand a word or two in almost every long sentence. It almost comical how badly the translation suddenly works. I hope it isn't due to the Australian choice as well. I've already gotten used to her... : /

Change the settings for "Double left quotation Marks"

Hi,
I'm a newbie to Scripting in Indesign. Can you name me wich properties I have to change (and the values) for the double and single left quotation marks to set the strait one's.
CS or CS3 please - VB or JS is ok.
Thankx
Frank

Hi Frank
1. To change it manually you have to deselect the following option:
Edit>Preferences>Type> Use Typographer's Quotes.
2. To access the option through vb script use the following syntax:
Document.TextPreference.TypographersQuotes
May be this will help you.

Safari, double click does not give new tab option anymore

why has my option when double clicking any item of a page will it not ask me anymore to open in a new tab only asks to open in new window. Just started doing this today
Message was edited by: oreofester

Hi,
Try resetting Safari. From your Safari menu bar click Safari / Reset Safari. Select the top 7 buttons, click Reset.
And check Safari / Preferences - Extensions. Might be an Extension causing the problem.
And try troubleshooting the Safari .plist file.
Quit Safari.
Open a Finder window. Select your Home Folder in the Sidebar on the left. It has a small house icon. Then open the Library folder then the Preferences folder.
Move the com.apple.Safari.plist file from the Preferences folder to the Desktop. Launch Safari. Try tabs. If it works as it should, then move the .plist file to the Trash.

Safari Help - Quicktime Question Mark

Hey guys, I need help here. My Safari doesn't seem to be working 100% here. I have the Quicktime logo with a 'question mark' on top of it on some on the website I visit. I wonder what I need to do to fix that. Thank you.

Same thing happened to me. Finally figured it out. Install the latest Flash 9.
Now do this...
1. Go into System Preferences and choose Quicktime.
2. Click on Advanced tab.
3. Uncheck Enable Flash box
4. Then, click on MIME Settings
5. Click on triangle next to Miscellaneous - Miscellaneous File Formats
6. Uncheck all boxes under and including Miscellaneous - Miscellaneous File Formats (you may only need to uncheck the Flash Media box, but I did them all and haven't noticed any other problems)

Safari Problems, Quicktime Question Mark on Pages

A week ago I downloaded PithHelmet, The basic ad blocker for Safari.
Anyway now the problem in safari I have, is that when ever i want to open a webpage with includes animations,videos or other, It shows me a Weird Quicktime logo with a question mark over it , although PithHelmet is uninstalled .
So here is a preview of one of the webpages this occurs:

Also, when i wanter to upload the pictures in ImageShack, i got the same sign :

Any support would be helpful

Did you also install a Quicktime update recently? One of the recent ones caused this to happen for some people.
Also check if it happens in a different user account. If it doesn't, it's probably something simpler to fix.
