Some fonts are in library fonts folder, but not in font book or in illustrator

imac/tiger/illustrator11
So I have some fonts that are in library>fonts but do not appear in font book or illustrator font list
also no fonts names listed in attributes, when you highlight font in the artwork, (but does list whether it is regular/bold!)
-also when I go about illustrator(11) it gives me info but locks program and have to force quit

Type 1 (PostScript) fonts require 2 files to make them work.
The FFIL files are screen fonts which load into the OS/programs in order to show up in the menus. They should show up as Font Suitcase in the KIND column of the finder. You will also need the corresponding LWFN file which is the postscript outline file. That will show up as Postscript Type 1 outline font in the KIND column of the finder. That is used to render the font on screen and output it.
OSX needs both of those in the same location in order to work correctly. Needing two pieces is just part of the problem. The names of the files are also different. The PostScript parts usually having abreviated names.
And it's more complex than that. One FFIL file actually may have many screen fonts inside it for the different variations of the font family. Then you will need to make sure you have separate LWFN files for all of those.
I know it's confusing. The 2-piece font just asks for problems. Unfortunately that is how Adobe invented them 20+ years ago.
OSX makes it harder by not letting you open the FFIL file to see what's inside. In OS 9 and earlier you could open the suitcases and add or remove screen fonts - even add unrelated fonts all to the same suitcase
Well I've rambled enough about Type one Fonts. I hope my first few paragraphs clear up some of it for you.

A Espinoza,
The iTunes Media folder is set in Preferences > Advanced, and is the key to most iTunes folder organizational activities. So I doubt that the automatic deletion will work for files that are somewhere else within the folder structure.
However, I have not experimented with that issue in quite a while, so you are welcome to give it a try in iTunes 11.

Some behaviors are missing. They are in the contents folder, but not in app.

Some Behaviors missing in app library. They are in the motion 5 contents folder.

I am having the same issue! Specifically the Depth of Field behavior. It's showing up for my friend using Lion but not for me and I am running Snow Leopard.

Some movies are on my Apple TV but not on my Mac.

I just set up my new Apple TV today and I noticed when I log in with my Apple account, there are a few movies I can see in my Apple TV list but not my iTunes list on my Mac? Why is this? Also, I purchased a movie through Apple TV, how do I download it to my Mac?

Okay, I think i'm having the same problem again after I purchase a movie through my Apple TV. I cannot see it in my initial movies list whn i log onto my Apple ID here at my work computer. Before I was able to see ALL my library but now I cannot see them. And I also noticed on my computer at home. I logged out, then logged back in just to be sure and I cannot see all of my movies. I though you can just be able t watch the movies you have purchased or loaded from a disc onot iTunes without haveing to download them at all. (just stream them)
Here on my work computer, I do have "check for available downloads" checked and on my computer at home. I also checked the purchased tab in the iTunes home wondow and on my home computer is stated that all downlaods for my ID are available, or whatever it says, cant really remember off the top of my head. Here on my work computer I did the same thing and I see ALL my movies. But that is the thing, I do not want to downlaod them on my work computer, just stream them. Like I said, before, I was able to just see them in my movies tab and watch them streaming but now they are all gone.

When i copy songs thrrough itunes some albums are copying as single songs but not as one album

If it can copy all as album folders its easy to run one album at atime and can here. Now it not working like that and i need to select always song.

Should that read "when I copy an artist over to itunes and that particular artist has multiple albums," because if not, I don't understand?
If I'm right about that, I'm still not really clear at all about what you're doing. Where are you importing these songs and albums from? Is it existing songs files and if so, what format are they in?

Why some contents are available in Thai store but not in US store

I want to buy Foxes's album 'Glorious' so bad.

Has to do with media rights.
Maybe Amazon has it, try there.

I redirected iTunes to an external drive and moved my iTunes library and folder, but my hard drive is still low on space. How can I be sure that my music is all on the external HD ONLY, especially with the new iCloud technology?

I redirected iTunes to an external drive and moved my iTunes library and folder, but my hard drive is still low on space. How can I be sure that my music is all on the external HD ONLY, especially with the new iCloud technology? It doesn't look like I created any more space by doing this, AND I totally lost all my iTunes playlists. I'm not sure if because I added old library materials manually if this messed up my playlists, or if the new location is just not reading my moved library. In any case, I followed step by step instructions and found a few holes and thought I'd just "figure it out" but I guess I'm not as smart as I thought since I'm still scratching my head many hours later.
Thanks for any support ;-)

Quick answer if you use iTunes' default preferences settings: Copy the entire iTunes folder (and in doing so all its subfolders and files) intact to the other drive. Open iTunes and immediately hold down the option (alt) key (shift on Windows) so you get a prompt to select a library, then guide it to the 'iTunes Library.itl' file in the moved iTunes folder.
If this is to a new computer and you put the copied iTunes folder in the default location of Macintosh HD > Users > *User Name* > Music then you don't even need to start with the option key held down, iTunes will automatically look for it there. (Make sure there isn't anything already in the iTunes folder there that you want to keep since you will be replacing it with the one you are moving.)

How to tell which items are in iTunes library on disc but not in program library?

I made a mistake the other night and I deleted some items from my iTunes library ... but NOT from disc.
These items are still in my 65 gig iTunes library on disc. Somewhere.
I'd like to re-add these songs. Is there any way to tell which songs in the iTunes library on disc are not in the iTunes program library?
I don't want to have to add all 65 gigs again and then remove all the duplicates
thanks!

You should try dragging some files already in the library into iTunes to see what happens. I just did, and the new iTunes 10.6 seems to be ignoring them. I then made a copy of a file already in the library, and I added both it and the original by dragging and dropping. Only the new file was added. There was no warning about duplicates in either test. So you may be able to drag your whole library back into iTunes.
For when you do want to determine what files on disk aren't in the iTunes library or vice versa, here's one way to do it (if there's an easier way, I'm all ears):
Export your library as a playlist to a text file.
Use a program that can recursively list all your files on disk as full paths and save its output to a text file.
Load the into a decent text editor. I use Notepad++. Then use a regexp search/replace to tidy up the files so that both consist of one fully qualified filename per line.
Sort the files.
Diff the files and examine the differences.
I can do both 4 and 5 in Notepad++.

It turns out that the problem had to do with network accounts, even though it was not clear at first. Redirecting the program to the local machine's cache with a network home redirector script fixed the issue. Thanks anyway.

Using ipad1, why do my pictures in a new folder i just ceated are not in a good order? all my other older folders are in the right order but not the last one i synchronised

I never had this problem before. My photos are mixed in my new folder of my IPad1 with ios version 5.1.1
. Usually, they are in alphabetical order like in any usual folder, but not this time .I synchronised with ITunes with the usb connector. How can I put back in the right order my pictures? I was just told (by apple's help desk) that IPad IOS 5.1.1 sorts photos by the last date modified instead of by alphanumerical order. What a foolish idea? Is there something we can do about this? Thanks! Robert

all the pictures appear but can only be shown clicking in the Catalog Panel in LR, they are all included within the ¨all pictures¨ and in ¨ Previus import ¨ ... the previus import are all the photos i cannot see within folders ..
Let me see how can i show you a screen capture and send it, I think this would explain better the situation
Yes, when i click show in finder, it takes me to the HD and shows me the right folder the picture is in. The folders in the HD show the order and titles i defined on lightroom .. so the folders i defined in lightroom were registered correctly in the HD but are no longer shown in the folder panel in LR

Custom Ringtones Show Up in iTunes Folder, but Not on iPhone

I've recently upgraded from a 3GS to a 4G. I have a few custom ringtones that I created from .MP3 files (converted to .m4r files). I had these same ringtones installed on my 3GS and want them on my 4G.
I transferred to my 4G by dragging them from the Windows folder to the iTunes device folder. The 5 ringtones show up in iTunes under the Ringtones folder. Only one of them shows up on the phone as being transferred.
I had done this a couple of days ago, and noticed then that only one ringtone was being shown under Custom Ringtones on my phone. Tonight, I uninstalled them all, rebooted my phone, and then re-dragged the files as per above. Again, all show up in the folder on the iPhone in iTunes, but one shows up on the phone. This is now a different one than a couple of days ago.
Soooo... what can be causing this? The files are apparently on my phone, but not appearing in the usable list. I need some help in resolving this. I've looked through these forums and seen similar issues. There doesn't seem to be a 'proper' way to do this. I manage my phone manually, and have not done a 'sync' with the ringtones as they show up in the folder... (I don't really see the need to sync if they're appearing in iTunes as on the phone).
Thanks!

Hi
having the same problem with my both devices.
already have custome ringtones and wanted to add more, followed the instruction and now i have them in iTunes under the Ringtones section.
my devices are iPhone 4 and using OS 4.21
during the sync i saw that the ringtones are added and they appear under the ringtone selection under the device info, however they do not appear on the device after sync.
any help??
by the way, i have read all the previous messages and i cant find any ringtone folder under iTunes folder

Editing a movie that was already cut together without transcoding .h264 footage to proresslt. I want to transcode full clips that are used in the edit, but not any of the leftovers.

Editing a movie that was already cut together without transcoding .h264 footage to proresslt. I want to transcode full clips that are used in the edit, but not any of the leftovers. Is there an efficient way to this?
I'm thinking I can convert the files with Compressor and place them in a new folder with their original file names (not sure how to get compressor to do this yet) and then do a major "Reconnect Clip" afterwards.
Not sure if there's a more efficient way to get all the clips in the timeline to compressor. I want the full files, not a sequence export. I can go through one clip and a time and add the master file. I'd rather not.
The more automated processes the better.
Thank you. I'm currently working so I don't have the time to scour the forums. Help or links to help would be greatly appreciated.
B

yeah Media reconnect can be an issue.
Will Media Manager convert files? Another thing I was thinking was to Media Manage the sequence out, copying all the used files to a new folder, and then running that through compressor. But it still leads to a massive reconnect. Fine tuning all those edits would be less involved than re-editing the whole thing, I hope.

What would the Smart Collection criteria be to isolate files in a folder but NOT in a collection?

What would the Smart Collection criteria be to isolate files in a folder but NOT in a collection?

or else FAR more simply,
though in practice, the difficulty may lie with how fuzzily or precisely the search text used, applies.
QUESTION
I'd be very curious to know, does anyone know how to search on a section of a full folder path rather than on the individual parts of that?
My folders are structured by LR at import, as (e.g.) 2014 / 01 / 27 for 27th Jan 2014.
So if I wanted to use a Smart Collection to search for (among other things) images in July 2013, I can search multiply on includes all of "2013" and "07" but that also throws up in my case, images which were taken on the 7th day of other months during 2013. I could search on a date range, though that's a little more laborious, or else do what I otherwise prefer, which is by keywords and other attributes plus (possibly) just year.
If I could search on folder path includes the string "2013/07" this would work fine. But I haven't found a syntax that does that (yet, assuming it is possible at all).
