Safari text overlapping problem

Hello,
I'm using Safari 3.0.3 and nowadays I'm experiencing strange problem, which seems to be difficult to explain. The text letters of different web pages is being overlapped for unknown to me reason. If there is a way I'd rather attach a screenshot for better understanding. Does anybody know what is the reason?
Regards,
Mike

Mike and Holger,
If you have 'Helvetica Fractions', 'Times Phonetic' or 'Rougue Stencil-Type' fonts installed, delete them.
-delete your fonts caches with FontNuke 1.1.5 +(or with whatever utility you usually use)+
<http://www.macupdate.com/info.php/id/21536/fontnuke>
-restart your Mac
-open your Font Book->Edit menu 'Select All' fonts - from the File menu 'Validate Fonts'
-from the Edit menu select 'Resolve Duplicates' +(if you have any duplicates)+
Good luck,
Tom

Text overlapping problem

Since I upgraded to 10.4.10, I dont know if I did something wrong but I have bad text overlapping problems in Safari and some other apps such as Software Update, I first noticed the overlapping when editing a Wikipedia article and in the text box the text kept overlapping. Another site where it is very noticeable is in Facebook, here's a screenshot:
Even on this site it's pretty bad. It's the worst in text-boxes like in the one I'm typing in right now.
This is driving me crazy, anyone else have this problem or know how to fix it? Thanks.

Ok, Johnny --
I hated to ask cause it's "Old School."
If you shut down your Mac every night,
you should have something on your Mac that will run cron scripts,
and do other helpful things for you.
I personally use YASU.
I run it about 1x month.
It's free or donation-ware
it's written just for Macs
and is excellent.
Here's where to go for more info on it:
http://jimmitchell.org/projects/yasu/
The new Macs were built to stay on 24/7.
When you shut them off at night, you stop the regular
maintenance it already has scheduled. YASU (or similar apps)
will take care of everything for you.

Windows 8, Safari text entry problems (online text box only)

At websites like LinkedIn, Yelp etc. I get weird anomolies when entering text. I have to click out of the online text box and click back in to enter text.
I get:
No text when hitting a character key
Weird carriage returns
Sometimes I simply cannot enter text
I have not exceeded the character limit
Is this my hardware, Safari in Win8, the OS? I just don't know where to start and it's really becoming a problem.
Cheers!

figured it out - just in case anyone else needs to know how to get carriage returns - make sure 'show scrollbar' is selected in the properties.

Safari text-enlargement bookmarklet being changed automatically, so won't work

got iOS4, iPad1.
being unable to enlarge text is just about the stupidest omission i can think of. NO text online is large enough to be read on a 10-inch screen without straining your eyes. and zooming in and moving page back and forth on every line? why, that'd be too stupid for windows 95.
this post explains how to enlarge safari text:
http://www.everythingicafe.com/forum/threads/increase-font-size-in-safari-withou t-zooming.8403/
i tried 3 ways to save this bookmarklet: copy it on ipad, save on computer safari and sync, and finally laboriously typing it out on ipad.
result is the same each time, safari messes up the code, changing < to %3, rendering it useless.
some posters on there reported the same problem, but some got it to work.
this bookmarklet is still a stupid way to do it, have to hit it every time you get to a new page, but still better than having actual pain in your eyes after 10 minutes.
thanks much,
m

thank you for answering.
what you suggest might be okay for some quick browsing, when you read a few words here and there. still annoying and a time-waster, but doable.
my problem is reading pages and pages and pages that have wall-to-wall text like a news or wikipedia articles or a book, when you, as i wrote above, have to move the page with your finger left to right with EVERY line you read, which is insanely stupid.
i checked, and it actually is %3C, so like you said, it should work.
i guess i'll have to spring for PerfectReader, though i'm out of the country for a long while and no credit card, so it'd be a pain...
yet another brilliant apple accomplishment, like the earphone jack on my $2000 macbook which, like those of thousands who complain about it online, broke after few months of use.
best,

Chart Legenditem text overlap

Hello,
I create a line-chart mit 7 series. The title of the series is 20 Char, for example "Cloppenburg/Emsland". In the legend of the chart the text overlap. In the example overlap text 4 text 1
Legend:
text 1 text 4 text 7
text 2 text 5
text 3 text 6
Can I write the text one below the other? For Example:
text 1
text 2

text 4
text 5
text 6

Please help, because the legend look terrible.
I use HTMLDB 2.0

I have created a work-around to my problem by setting all y-axes precision to zero, then setting each y-axis visible/invisible, then resetting the original precision of each y-axis.

Text box problem or question

I'm having the text field problem. I have two text boxes (inside my .fla file) one i can add more text without the box expanding and can then select the text and croll down to view the missing text and the other one just gets longer the more text I add. I'm trying to duplicate the text box that does not expand the more text I add to it.
All the settings in the properties are the same on both and I've tried it in MX and CS3 and the both have the same properties in both.
I'm stumped can anyone help.
I'm attaching the file.
Thanks!

If you right click the textfield on the stage you can select the "scrollable" option for it. Another option to duplicate the textfield is to copy/paste it.

Question on the known solution to the "Three pixel text jog" problem

Hello,
I'm "browser-checking" my website using Dreamweaver CS4 tool for that. I've got in various places the "three pixel text jog" IE problem. I followed the link to solution proposed by DW. It says I should add an IE conditional statement in the <head> part, so that I can define the CSS zoom property for that particular element. Hence, something like that:

(assuming the problem occurs for a inside my #Content div.)
My question is: can I replace this by

For another browser problem (prevent the browsers from using some of their own default settings), it was advised to reset the margin, padding and border properties using:
 border: 0;
 margin: 0;
 padding: 0;
(although in my case I had to later remove border: 0; because it would prevent default buttons of forms to be displayed as buttons.)
Does this * really mean "anything"? Is it valid as used above for fixing the three pixel text jog problem? If not, do I really have to define this zoom property for any single HTML element for which it occurs? (It currently occurs for some headers, <div>, "<div> <div>" sequence, some .)
Any comment welcome...
Emilie
P.S.: I tried it and DW doesn't flag that problem any more, but I'm unsure how much I can trust it.

The behavior is unexpected. The file paths are
correct?

Firefox was working on my new iMac but then, after switching on recently, won't connect to the web – whereas Safari has no problem.

===
Hi
I bought an iMac a week ago and installed Firefox via Safari. It worked fine for a while but, after a recently switching on, it won't connect to the web whereas Safari has no problems.
I've tried following the Firefox Help, looking into the iMac firewall, but still no luck.
I've no idea whether related or not but yesterday I had a system glitch where the iMac stated no wi-fi was installed and only connected via a physical lead to my house router. Also, there was no sound output via Safari. However, after booting up today all seems well – apart from Firefox still not working. It loads the start page but can't access the web.
I have Little Snitch running, and wonder if that's the culprit... but it's working fine with Safari, seemingly.
(Finally, how do I stop a dialogue box appearing on start-up saying that "To open “X” you need a Java runtime. Would you like to install one now?)
Any ideas anyone?
Cheers

On the wireless networks that your Mac has had trouble connecting to, do you know which Wireless Security type (WEP, WPA, or WPA2) is being used?
If it is WEP, one of the problems is that the actual standard relies on a 10 character HEX key for 40bit WEP and a 26 character HEX key for 128bit WEP. In order to make things easier, vendors use certain algorithms to convert simple alphanumeric passwords (or passphrases) into HEX keys, thus enabling the use of simple easy to remember WEP password rather than lengthy HEX keys. The problem is that different vendors use different algorithms to generate the HEX key and therefore a ASCII password on an AEBS will be hashed differently on a non-Apple client and vice versa. You may find the following Apple Support article helpful.

We bought an iphone 4s for our daughter. We transfered it to straight talk. She can make calls and text no problem. She can use the WiFi but is unable to use the internet or mms. How do we update the APN?

We bought an iphone 4s for our daughter. We transfered it to straight talk. She can make calls and text no problem. She can use the WiFi but is unable to use the internet or mms. How do we update the APN?

To clarify for anyone who is still having any problems doing this.
1. Unlock your phone with the carrier ( I know the process will work if it is jail broken but I am assuming you dont want to void the warranty on your phone) NOTE: even if you purchased the phone outright at Wal-Mart it is still locked to ATT so you will have to unlock the phone. If it's already unlocked skip to step 2. This works and will work even if you update the phone.
1a Here is the link to unlock a ATT iphone. Simply follow the instructions https://www.att.com/deviceunlock/client/en_US/
2. Get a T- mobile SIM. Even if you don't want the service, if you feign interest, they will send you one for free or 99cents. If you need it now you can get one at a T-mobile store too.
3. Once you have both your Straight talk SIM and your T-mobile SIM follow these instructions:http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mFFf5uqk18M
4. If you have any remaining questions look at all the responses posted previously on this thread or check out the Howard Forums Wiki: http://wiki.howardforums.com/index.php/Straight_Talk_iPhone
Everything should work flawlessly at this point. If not let me know and I'm happy to help when I can. I hope this makes doing this very easy for everyone in the future. God Bless -J

Font / text edit problem in photoshop CS6

Hi there,
I have a strange text edit problem in Photoshop CS6 running on Mavericks.
Every time I use the text-tool in PS, write a sentence, mark it and change something like color, font size etc., the marked text vanishes.
I have to "undo" the last step and the changed text appears again.
Every time!
I have a clean installed CS6 with no plugins and no other than system fonts installed.
Everything on a new Mac Pro with OS X 10.9.5
Any clues? Thanks.

Do you have the latest updates for photoshop cs6?
You can use Help>Updates from within photoshop cs6 to check if there are any available.
Also, if you go to Help>System Info from within photoshop cs6, you can see the Photoshop Version in the top line.
You should be on version 13.0.6
See if turning off Dictation solves the issue.
Go to System Preferences ---> Dictation and Speech -----> select OFF radio button .

Hello Albert, see how many of these you can answer...
See if the Disk is issuing any S.M.A.R.T errors in Disk Utility...

Open Activity Monitor in Applications>Utilities, select All Processes & sort on CPU%, any indications there?
How much RAM & free space do you have also, click on the Memory & Disk Usage Tabs.
Open Console in Utilities & see if there are any clues or repeating messages when this happens.
In the Memory tab, are there a lot of Pageouts?

Safari load image problem with iMac Intel core

I got my new iMac 20" Intel core and system updated everything. I found that Safari cannot load image in my web photo album ( http://fotop.net/nicknick ), all image became "?".
I can load this page correctly with FireFox and Opera Browser. I also try the iMac 17" PowerPC in my office with the latest version Safari, it also load the album correctly. And I know this web is created and store in a Linux server, the web page coding not written or optimized to IE.
I've try to reinstall the whole OS X, nothing else installed, the same problem occurred.
Is it the problem on Intel core? or any setting I can do to overcome it?
Hope the problem could be solve, I like to use Safari except this problem.
iMac 20" Intel core Mac OS X (10.4.5)

Well... no - except to ask if your intel imac is connected to the internet in exactly the same way as the ppc imac. If it is, then that's puzzling
You're right, I'm puzzled by the imac.
Intel imac is at my home, ppc imac is at my office;
both using same ISP but different service plan,
(home:) PPPoE, ADSL modem -> buffalo MIMO wireless router -> intel imac (both direct wire or wireless connect have same result)
(office:) fixed-ip, ADSL modem -> firewall -> Linksys wireless router -> ppc imac (wireless)
both network setting with manual assigned IP, gateway and same DNS
Same result occurred when (1)open box new machine, (2)after updated system, (3)reinstall whole OS with preserve the old setting, (4)reinstall whole OS with erase the whole harddisk option, (5)updated system after the reinstallation.
I firstly think may be some security setting in imac that blocked the images, but can't found out. I secondly think some html code at this web not work on Safari.
May someone with same machine help to open this web to see if all intel imac get the same result?
