""selected font failed during last operation." and " there is a problem with generator" application error

For PSDs I have created in older versions of Photoshop CC 2014 I am getting errors when opening / trying to save. They seem to be either Generator or font related. Interestingly, PSDs created in newer versions of PS CC 2014 have no issues, even when using same fonts.
I am getting the error messages:
When I open the older PSD files, (again created or saved in older versions of PS CC 2014) I am asked to update fonts. If I do I get the error.
'Selected font failed during last operation'
When I try to don't try to update fonts and then I try to play with the file I get the following error.
'There is a problem with Generator. Please quit Photoshop and try again. If the problem persists, remove any third-party plugins or try re-installing photoshop.
I don't have any third party plugins that I can see.
I have re-installed multiple times.
I need to use this program and I am paying for your services. I am actually on the phone now with 'help desk' and have been on hold for 22 minutes.
Please Help

When I installed the Apple programs, mobile device application did not uninstall by itself. I had to go to c://program files/common files/apple/mobile device application (or something like that) and manually delete the contents and the folders. I have a 64 bit version so I also had to visit c://program files (x86)/common files/apple/mobile application device (or similar) and also manually delete the files and folders. I had to delete the files before I could delete the folders. This manual part is probably tripping everyone up, because it's not as easy as simply hitting uninstall in the control panel. But the instructions are there. I hope this helps you.

Selected font failed during last operation

When i'm trying to use the text tool I get the 'Selected font failed during last operation' message.
How can i fix this?

Windows 7 Pro 6.1.7601 SP 1 build 7601
Photoshop CC 2014.2.1
This is a clean install of photoshop. No plug-ins have been added, no fonts have been activated/added to system and no preferences have been changed from defaults.
When I open a .psd created on OSX I first get the "Some text layers might need to be updated before they can be used for vector based output. Do you want to update these layers now? [No] [Update]" warning. Clicking 'Update' crashes the file and shows the "Selected font failed during last operation. If problem persists, please disable the font." error.
If I re-open the file and this time click 'No' EVERY SINGLE CLICK ON ANYTHING produces the "Selected font failed during last operation. If problem persists, please disable the font." error.
Selecting a Layer then gives the, "There is a problem with Generator. Please quit Photoshop and try again. If the problem persists, remove any third-party plug-ins or try reinstalling Photoshop." error.
Reinstalling does nothing to fix the issue and again, this is a clean install.
I've worked with Photoshop for over 20 years and have never seen anything like this. Normally when there's any kind of font mismatch between two systems no matter if its windows to windows or mac to windows, the font simply defaults to the system default once you attempt to edit it. Adobe has broken a once killer app.
Now, as far as the Font Test... script, if I leave "Clear Font Cache" checked and click Start, I get the error,
"Failed to get the path for font cache files:
- C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Photoshop CC 2014\tmp00000001
- C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Photoshop CC 2014\tmp00000001
- C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Photoshop CC 2014\tmp00000001
Please delete the files manually to clear font cache.
Even with show hidden files turned on there is no folder or file by that name.
If I uncheck "Clear Font Cache" then says every single one of my fonts is damaged. My system fonts folder only includes those installed by windows and its apps.
Please please fix this!

Photoshop cc error "selected font failed during last operation"

I just installed new fonts to Windows 8 PC running CC Suite with Type Kit running. When I open a previously made template in PS I keep getting photoshop cc error "selected font failed during last operation". Type kit does not show the font. The font is installed on my computer.
- The template has the original version of the font named "Adam". I downloaded the updated version now named "Adam.cg pro".
- I click on the substitution caution in the layers palette and select the new version of the "Adam" font.
- When i try to save my changes I get, error "selected font failed during last operation. If problem persists, please disable font."
Can anyone help me solve/fix this problem?
Thanks,
Brett

Looks like a corrupt font.
Illustrator is more picky about fonts than any other application.

I have the iphone 4s and i am having problems with my applications. they won't open. what do i do??

Try downloading any free app to resync your iTunes account.

HT5559 I've followed the instructions to re-enable apple supplied Java SE 6 but this does not work. Java is still disabled and I'm having problems with dependant applications.

I've followed the instructions to re-enable apple supplied Java SE 6 following upgrade to version 7 which caused a number of applications to stop working.
I wondered if anyone has had any joy re-enabling JAVA SE 6. I've tried contacting Apple but cannot get any response. They've sent me back default messages claiming that they have tried to contact me - they haven't! I'd be grateful for some help with this. Thanks

This is the latest news about Java.

I do not use Java. So I cannot verify that this is the solution or not..

'Selected font failed' error

Just an hour ago everything was working as usual. Then suddenly, half of my fonts don't show the 'sample' preview in the drop menue, and while scrolling the list, if I scroll over one of the empty fonts, this error pops up:
Selected font failed during last operation. If problem persists, please disable the font.
I'd have to disable practically my entire font folder. What's happening?

Moving the discussion to Adobe Type.
Thanks,

When trying to install ios5 on my iphone, I get error message that there is a problem with backup, if I continue with update all data on my phone will deleted. I cancelled the update and phone is fine. Anyone know the cause?

When trying to install io5 on my iphone4 I get an error message during the updtae that there is a problem with backup and if I continue with the update, all the data will be deleted from my phone. I cancelled the update and my phone is fne. Has anyone else experience this? What is the cause/solution?
Yhanks!

DON'T DO IT! Read the threads ... there is a MAJOR problem with updating iPhones 3GS/4 to iOS 5.
Take it to the Apple store and ask them to do it.
I repeat: DON'T DO IT YOURSELF.

Got a message that there is a problem with my Mac OS X Kernal. my PowerBook has crashed 4 times in the last week and happened when backing up to Seagate plus ext. hard drive.

my PowerBook G4 has crashed 4 times in the last week. I got a message that there is a problem with the Mac OS Kernal. Does anyone know what this means?

Kernel panics are usually caused by a hardware problem – frequently RAM, a USB device or a Firewire device. What external devices do you have connected? When trying to troubleshoot problems, disconnect all external devices except your monitor, keyboard and mouse. Do you experience the same problems?
To eliminate RAM being the problem, Look at this link: Testing RAM @ http://guides.macrumors.com/Testing_RAM Then download & use Memtest & Ramber.
Do you have an Apple Hardware Test disc? Running the Apple Hardware Test in Loop Mode is an excellent troubleshooting step for finding intermittent hardware problems. It is especially useful when troubleshooting intermittent kernel panics. If Loop Mode is supported by the version of the Apple Hardware Test you are using, you run the Extended Test in Loop Mode by pressing Control-L before starting the test. Looping On should appear in the right window. Then click the Extended Test button.The test will run continuously until a problem is found. If a problem is found, the test will cease to loop, indicating the problem it found. If the test fails, be sure to write down the exact message associated with the failure.In some cases, RAM problems did not show up until nearly 40 loops, so give it a good run.
May be a solution on one of these links.

OIM: How to get the last operation and data from a child form action

Dear OIM guru,
I have a regular Process form, a child form and a process definition. When there is an insert/delete into child form a trigger is raised and the process task gets called. The process task does whatever it needs to do on the target system. This is all fine. However, after the task completes, lets say successfully, I want to send out an email to the user saying, for example, group 1 has been added to you or just got deleted.
I am not able to figure out how to get that last operation and child form data. I am sure you came across this and if so please let me know how to do this.
Thanks

So, Can I add a similar process task with the same exact condition one more time? I thought I couldn't use the same condition again. For example, when a group is deleted can I use the process data->child data->group Id with old value check box checked on another process task?

You really need to try this on a computer, not on the iPad.
Seeing how what is in the cloud is also on the iPad, if the content is not on the iPad, there is a good chance that the content is lost. But you can try logging into www.icloud.com in a web browser on a computer and log into your account and see if you can get into the Pages app. You may have to sign up for iCloud drive if you didn't do so already. Make SURE you that you read the blurb that will pop up in that window in iCloud for more information.

My iPod says there's a problem with my last purchase and every time I try to look at my history to clear the problem it says there no connection to ITunes

When I log into my acc it ammediatly says there's a problem with my last purchase and to go to my purchase history to clear it. When I hit continue its suppose to take me to the history but it just loads then says cannot connect

the itunes says that it knows that there isan ipod there, but it doesnt recognize it. I have reset the ipod, restarted my computer, and reinstalled itunes.
Doublechecking. Have you tried a complete uninstall of both iTunes and all the other related software components (Apple Mobile Device Support, Apple Application Support, etc ...) and then a reinstall? If not, try the instructions from the following document:
Removing and reinstalling iTunes and other software components for Windows Vista, Windows 7, or Windows 8

Error: There is a problem with the file and it cannot be copied

I've been trying to copy (and essentially move) the contents of an NTFS-formatted external HDD to my iMac's internal HDD so I can then format the external HDD to Mac OS Extended. However, when I simply try to drag and drop, I get an error during the transfer that states:
There is a problem with the file and it cannot be copied.
I tried a basic cp command in Terminal to copy all contents of the external HDD to a folder on my iMac's desktop, and found that while there were no errors, there were many individual files missing full chunks of data (ie. original file would be 4GB on my external HDD, but only 350MB on my desktop).
Any ideas on how I can successfully copy a large amount of data (approx. 170GB) from my external HDD to my internal HDD while avoiding this error, so I can ultimately format my external HDD to Mac OS Extended? ANY help is greatly appreciated.

That's not a good error to see. It indicates something is very wrong. Pulled out of an old programming header file:
ioErr = -36, /*I/O error (bummers)*/
If Apple labelled it "bummers," they had a good reason! Unfortunately, that doesn't bode well for you.
Try running Disk Utility again. Keep repairing over and over until one of two things happens: 1) Disk Utility says no repair was needed, or 2) Disk Utility reports the same error in two sequential repair sessions and is unable to repair it both times.
If you hit the second case, or if you hit the first but still can't copy files, then you've got two basic options:
= Buy a third-party disk utility or two and try them. Try TechTool as a first choice.
= Recover what files you can and write the rest off as gone.
= Send your drive to a data recovery service and hope they can extract more than you can.
Of course, none of this is necessary if you have a backup of the contents of that hard drive. (If you don't, this is your learning experience. Once bitten, twice shy, so they say.) Also, regardless of the outcome, once you've got your data or have decided it's gone, you're going to want to wipe that drive completely clean. Reformat the drive with Disk Utility, then when it's done, select the drive in Disk Utility and hit command-i. (Don't select the new volume you just created on that drive, select the drive itself. Mine looks like "232.9 GB Hitachi ..." with the volume name indented underneath.) Look for an item that says S.M.A.R.T. Status, and if it doesn't say Verified, you might as well throw out the drive. Don't trust any more data to it.
If all appears safe, you can start moving data back onto it. But, as always, make sure you have a backup of everything!
