Some font options not using default system language in font menus

Font options for Helvetica and Helvetica Neue (e.g. bold, italic, light, etc.) do not use the default system language (English) in the system wide font panel, or in font options within individual applications. Any suggestions as to how to correct this?

Multiple Guest Accounts using different system languages

Hello there,
I have an old G3 iMac that i want to set up in my guest room. As some of my friends are japanese and some are german i would like to prepare one guest account using german system language und one using japanese.
Is that even possible, or can i only use one system language (i.e. language used in Menu Bar and Finder ect.) for all accounts?
OS would be Tiger.
Thanks!

Hi GoldyPPC, und ein herzliches Willkommen zu den Foren!
Yep, I just did it, made two new Accounts, in each one went to System Preferences>International>Language tab, dragged German to the top in one, then the Formats tab to set Currency, Date/Time & such, after logging oit and back in to the first one, everything... Finder, Safari, Desktop, Dock, all was in German, repeated on second one for Japanese!

Why is my iphone 5 not using default ring tone even though it is set for my personal tone in defaults!!

Why is my iphone 5 not using default ring tone even though it is set for my personal tone in defaults!!

Hello Rob,
Welcome to the Apple Support Communities. You may have a contact that has a different ringtone assigned to it. Just navigate to the contact and see what ringtone is assigned to them.
iPhone: Ringtones
http://support.apple.com/kb/ta38610
Setting Ringtones
In addition to the default ringtone, you can assign individual ringtones to people in your contacts so that you can tell when a particular person calls.
Alternatively you can reset all settings in Settings > General > Reset > Reset All Settings. This would put your iPhone at factory default on everything settings wise and it does not touch the data on the phone

Skype uses IE ("Internet Explorer") as the browser interface on Windows based systems, this currently includes many windows such as the logon screen and add Contacts screen. This is fairly normal when a program uses browser logic internally, it is not changing what you use as a default browser.

Fstab nfs mount options not used

I mount an nfs4 share from fstab with this;
192.168.1.250:/ /mnt/SERVER_NYTT nfs rw,hard,async,intr,rsize=49152,wsize=49152,proto=tcp 0 0
What I get is this;( $ mount:)
192.168.1.250:/ on /mnt/SERVER_NYTT type nfs4 (rw,relatime,vers=4,rsize=32768,wsize=32768,namlen=255,hard,proto=tcp,timeo=600,retrans=2,sec=sys,clientaddr=192.168.1.251,minorversion=0,local_lock=none,addr=192.168.1.250)
As you see rsize and wsize isn't correct. Mounting manually with
mount -t nfs4 -o rw,hard,async,intr,rsize=49152,wsize=49152,proto=tcp 192.168.0.250:/ /mnt/SERVER_NYTT
does give the correct result. Amongst other things I tested my gigabit network for nice rsize and wsize as shown in the manual command above, but they're not used from fstab it seems. 32768 is the default for nfs4.
I see nothing in the logs and export from the server can't change these options, as far as I understand 'man export'. Nothing in the arch wiki about this either.

Above note does not apply to backup location. Just it should be able to write and read from backup location. I/O speed should be good otherwise it becomes nightmare.

Functions are not using default and will not validate without direct input

Hi. I am recreating all of our mappings (from 9.0 to 11g). And I am finding that any function that does not have a direct input for every input variable (rather than using the defaults as defined in the function) no longer will validate in OWB. It states that the input parameter is required but is not connected.
I have worked around this so far by adding Constants to pass the default values. I tried setting the default value in the property inspector window for each specific input parameter and this did not work, I still get the same error.
Is there a way to fix this? i am not happy with having to add all these constants, and I don't see why it is not using the defaults that are defined in the functions themselves. Any help is appreciated.
Thanks,
Kaisha

By the way for anyone who is curious....
The reason that the functions and sp's weren't working correctly was because I had movedthem into the new DB wrapped. I don't know why it caused this but when I did dbms_metadata and replaced them all unwrapped, and then reimported them into OWB all the mappings compiled.

Can not use default screen saver with this version of Mac OS X

Hello,
I created a 10.6.4 image on a Mac Pro that I have installed on a new 27" iMac. Every thing works fine, as expected, except the screen savers (all Apple default). All screen savers appear in the list when booted off the Mac Pro, but when booted off the iMac, all but 2 disappear (Computer Name and Flurry). Also, the ones listed under Pictures show up, but when I try to use one it says "Can not use 'screen saver name' with this version of Mac OS X - Contact your vendor."
Also, the flurry screen saver runs extremely slow.
Unfortunately, I don't have another iMac to compare versions with, but I've compared with a new Macbook Pro and they are exactly the same. Is there a cache or a pref I can flush?

The old screensavers were about the first things that didn't work when moving to Snow Leopard, so my guess would be the iMac is booting in 32-bit vs 64-bit mode (or whichever mode is incompatible with your screensavers).

Adobe Muse (2014.3) "Add Web Font" Function Not Working As Expected - Newly Added Fonts Become Unavailable Though Shown

Hello.
This has also been posted in the Community: Adobe Muse Bugs forum.
I've been having some odd/irregular issues though they have now become fairly predictable in nature. The issue is in regards to Adobe Muse (2014.3) and the availability of web fonts provided through the applications "Add Web Fonts" feature. Once added they perform as expected but then become "unavailable." Full details below. I have been a Creative Cloud Complete subscriber for a number of years so am fairly familiar with the way in which the system works minus a few issues that have popped up now and then, this one included.
System Info:
Adobe Creative Cloud (Full Subscription): Version 1.9.1.474
Adobe Muse: Version 2014.3
OS X Yosemite: 10.10.2
Here is a recap of what has been taking place. I'll detail the bug as best I can.
1. Created new Adobe Muse project. Everything normal.
2. Chose to add a new font through the "Add Web Fonts" function within Muse. A note, my Creative Cloud App is running/open at all times (in file synch mode).
3. Chose new fonts using above. All seemed fine (see screenshots below).
4. Fonts also were indicated as being "Synched" within Creative Cloud (screenshot below).
5. As expected the two fonts were added to the list of available Web Fonts within Muse (first screenshot below - left). I added them successfully to my site. Well after a number of hours I went back to this same font selection menu within Muse and the fonts were still visible yet the sub-menu that one would expect showing various forms (i.e. Bold, Italic, etc) was not available. In a sense the font could not be chosen from the list even though the name is clearly visible (second screenshot below - right).
Have no idea what may have been wrong. Saved Muse project, closed and reopened - nothing changed. Created new project - fonts still "shown" in menu but can't be used. Did find a vague description using Google of similar problem (different application) which recommended closing Creative Cloud Desktop App and reopening as one possible solution. This DID WORK initially yet the problem, though corrected for a period of time (few hours at most), would reappear again where one would again see yet not be able to choose from the two Web Fonts. Went so far as to uninstalling the Creative Cloud Desktop application and reinstalling. Still have not solved the problem.
Any thoughts as to what this may be would be welcome. Restarting the CC app each and every time the fonts become unavailable is quite time consuming to my workflow.
Thanks!

Abhishek,
Thank you for the reply. Wanted to comment on a few things.
I reviewed the other post that you've referenced. Nothing unusual jumped out at me as something that I was not aware of. I'm running an older iMac that is in good working condition. 2.4 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo, 24" screen. I know this issue is fleeting, as I stated earlier typically can be corrected with a restart of the CC Desktop application (that I am always running at startup). I have not been able to determine that shutting down Muse corrects the issue. I would, at this time say it doesn't.
I did open InDesign and see if the fonts in question, Open Sans and Open Sans Condensed, were present and usable. They were. The fonts are shown as being synched in my CC Desktop app window (even if they are not "installed" in Muse). That is expected but it may be a bug in how Muse brings in a font from those that are already synched to your CC account. I don't know enough about how that works to comment.
And just to complicate matters, Muse seems to be working again, the fonts that is. I brought them back in and they are showing up in all locations (which there are actually three - see screen shots).
First is primary text menu dropdown (to right of orange "Text").
Second is if you click orange Text link. Another drop down menu appears.
And lastly, the Text Panel to right of screen.
I also wanted to add this extra bit of information, for what it is worth. When the issue arises and you do not get the sub-menu dropdown showing various styles of the font (italics, bold, etc.), one can use click on the missing font if you had used it previously and it is present in the "previously used font" list.
Cheers!

Skype not using default browser

I recently uninstalled Skype to revert to an older version to get rid of the horrible "Skype Home" splash screen. While I found "Skype Home" useless and irritating, it was nothing compared to what I found out when I finished uninstalling.
These days it's quite common that when you're uninstalling a program, a browser window is launched to take you to the program's website, usually to show you some generic "we're sorry to see you leave" message. That's fair enough. However, most programs have the common courtesy to respect the user's default program settings and personal preferences and launch his default browser. This doesn't seem to be the case with Skype, for after uninstalling Skype I was shocked to see an Internet Explorer window opening.
Really, owned by Microsoft or no, there can be no excuse for such an insult to your customers, not to mention compromising their privacy and security by force-launching the unsafest and most disliked browser out there.
I am expecting a formal apology.

How to make Weather use my system language

Hi all,
My situation is kind of uncommon, but I would like to try to post here to see if anyone happens to know a solution. If I should not post this question (which is about sync between iPhone and Macbook) here, please let me know.
Background:
iPhone 6 plus (language is Chinese)
Macbook Pro (language is English)
The problem:
If I add a new city in Weather on my iPhone in Chinese ( I had to add it using Chinese, btw), it shows as it is on my Mac. See picture below.
I also noticed that I can add that city again on my Mac again, in English of course. See picture below.
This happens in the other direction too. Adding a city on my mac in English, then it shows in English on my iPhone, and I can still add a Chinese version of that city.
This is weird to me, because usually this should be designed as the same model with two different views (same thing in different languages), not two separated models.
Please let me know if you know how Weather syncs data and/or how to solve this issue.
=== more: ===
The behavior becomes even weirder if I add a city in one language on one device and then add the same city in another language on another device. Take the capital of France for example, I added '巴黎' (Paris in Chinese) on my iPhone (and it is synced to Mac), then I added 'Paris' on my Mac. To my surprise, the second entry shows as '巴黎' on my iPhone, not as 'Paris' (I now have two exactly same entries on my iPhone).
And after I add another city on my iPhone, the second capital-of-France entry on my Mac becomes '巴黎' too. ( I think this is normal, as things are synced to another device when updated on one device).
notes:
- This also happens on the other direction.
- This is not happening every time. Sometimes this bug shows up, sometimes not.
- I found this behavior long ago. I'm pretty sure this is not only for the latest versions of iOS and Mac OS.

Move the entire iTunes folder from <User's Music> to the root of the other drive. Press and hold down shift as you launch iTunes and keep holding until asked to choose or create a library. Click choose and browse to X:\iTunes\iTunes Library.itl where X:\ is the drive letter.
You should also consider making a backup of your library to an external drive.
iTunes will still want to store iOS backup data on the system drive unless you use the following process to relocate it.
Moving the iOS device backup location
Open a command prompt by hitting the start button and typing CMD<Enter> in the search box that opens up, or with Start > Run on older Windows.
To move the current backup folder from C: to X: (for example) type in this command and press <Enter>
Move "C:\Users\<User>\AppData\Roaming\Apple Computer\MobileSync\Backup" "X:\Backup"
Where <User> is your Windows user name.
To make iTunes look for the data in the new location type in this command and press <Enter>
MkLink /J "C:\Users\<User>\AppData\Roaming\Apple Computer\MobileSync\Backup" "X:\Backup"
If your preferred drive has a different letter or you already have a folder called "Backup" then edit "X:\Backup" accordingly in both commands.
If you have Windows XP then you'll need a third-party tool such as Junction to link the two locations together instead of the MkLink command. The source folder is C:\Documents and Settings\<User>\Application Data\Apple Computer\MobileSync\Backup

Specifying JRE version in webpage (not using default set in Plugin)

Hiya,
I'm trying to set it up so our app loads a specific version of JRE (1.4.2_12) even though v 1.5 is installed on the machine and set as the default in the plugin.
Cant change the default from being v1.5 in the plugin as it is needed by other application on the system.
Does anyone know how I can specify which version of the JRE is used if it's even possible.
Thanks

Acrobat not using default driver settings (HP4250n)

I have my HP4250n default driver settings set to "duplex," (per the advanced settings under Printers and Faxes) but when I go to print in Acrobat Pro 9, I have to manually set the duplex each time to get it to work. I am using the HP PCL6 driver for Windows XP.
Does anyone know why only Acrobat fails to see the default settings?
Thanks, any help is appreciated.

Yes, i have struggled with this too.
I found that there are 2 places where you can set the standard settings for your printer. For some reason if only 1 is used, it wont work.
There is one at the general tab of your printer properties and one in the Advanced tab in the same printer properties.
When i make sure these 2 options have the same settings, it works for me.
Dont ask me why. Printer drivers work in mysterious ways if you ask me.
