Some text appears to be one font in one computer, but a different font in another computer.

The navigation buttons in my .fla file are set to the font, Arial MT in Bold. It displays no problem on my desktop computer. However, when I view the website on my laptops, the font changes to what looks to be something like Times New Roman.
The same thing happens with my "Read More" button text. It's also originally in Arial MT Bold. On my desktop it appears fine but on my 2 laptops it appears to be in Times New Roman. This is more of an issue because I have these buttons underlined. When viewing in my laptops, these underlines appear to be too long. If I shorten it, it'll probably appear to be too short when I view on my desktop.
How can I get the font to be one consistent font for all computers?
Note, this is the only font this is happening with - I have another unusual font, Miama, which many computers don't come with but it still displays on all my computers.

Thanks for your replies. It worked.

Embedded images in Word documents are incorrect on one computer but show up fine on another computer

I've not been able to find the root of the problem, but I use an application on my laptop that generates images in a document, and the document can be saved either with docx or htm/html extensions. On the laptop, I see the correct images. When I transfer
the document to my workstation either over the network or by a flash drive, the incorrect images pop up - images from a project that I was working on last summer. If I save the documents as a doc on my laptop, the correct images show up on my desktop. This
happens on many documents that I use, but I do have a document I use as a template. I'd prefer not to create another one, because it is quite involved.
When the incorrect images show up on my workstation, I can save the document to a flash drive (you would think with the incorrect images also being saved), but the correct images show up on my laptop.
This is frustrating to always have to work around this, but I've searched Google and really haven't found anyone else having a problem very close to this. Does anyone have any ideas?
Thanks

Hi,
I'm actually thinking whether the issue is related to Office version. What are the versions of Office on your laptop and workstation?
Based on the description, the issue doesn't occur if the document is saved as .doc, it only occurs if the document is saved as .docx, so basically we can say your workstation doesn't support .docx well. Is it a version prior to Office 2007?

In my iPhoto library, only some images appear as thumbnails. The rest are blank but appear briefly when scrolling through or properly when double clicked. Any ideas?

Option 1
Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the command and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild. Choose to Rebuild iPhoto Library Database from automatic backup.
If that fails:
Option 2
Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. This will create a new library based on data in the albumdata.xml file. Not everything will be brought over - no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your albums and keywords back.
Because this process creates an entirely new library and leaves your old one untouched, it is non-destructive, and if you're not happy with the results you can simply return to your old one. .

Keywords not transferring with pictures on copy and paste to a new computer. In lightroom on old computer but not in lightroom on new computer? Not all pictures, but a lot of the new ones.

Keywords not transferring with pictures on copy and paste to a new computer. The keywords are in lightroom on old computer but not in lightroom on new computer? Not all pictures, but a lot of the new ones.

I actually found under EDIT then Catalog settings / then metadata that the automatic write changes to XMP had been unchecked. Once I check this, it updated and connected all the keywords to the pictures. Now when I copy and paste the keywords show up as I can now detect them in Adobe bridge when before I couldn't see them even though they were in lightroom. . Thanks for your input.

Some text appears bold when published. Why?

Hi.
I've used iWeb to create my very first web-site, but I have an annoying problem. On my links page, one particular block of text appears in bold when viewing on a browser. The text is not bolded, though, in iWeb.
http://web.mac.com/stevenrichardjackson/iWeb/bloggermepink/links.html
Look at the links on the right hand side, under the subheading "Apple".
Does anyone have any idea what I can do to make this text appear the same as the rest if the text on that page.
Thanks in advance,
Steve.

Wow -- this is getting stranger and stranger...
I did what you suggested, namely duplicating the "Apple" links text box, deleting the "Films" and "Geekery" text boxes, repositioning the duplicated box into the desired place and re-typing the links. This sounded like a pretty good suggestion.
However...
Now have a look:
http://web.mac.com/stevenrichardjackson/iWeb/bloggermepink/links.html
If you put your mouse over the "Geekery" links and move it around a bit, you'll see that the Xbox sites have a phantom space that appears and disappears depending on where the mouse is hovering...
The only explanation I can think of is that there is some kind of bug in iWeb's Publish function. Has this section of my web-site been published twice, and the second publish hasn't overwritten the first???
This might be way off mark, but what else could be causing this?
I have checked my file in iWeb, by the way, and there's no hidden text box or anything like that...
Hope you have a suggestion.
Cheers,
Steve.

Safari's font selection is available but the actual font file is not in Mac

I am having problem with view the correct font rendering on safari for mac for some of the Chinese text. I used to be able to fix it under 3.0.4 but for some reason, the same thing is happening again and I could not get rid of it.
The situation is that under Safari 3.1, if I go to preferences->appearance->select (for standard font); I will see a font name "MingLiU" available. However, the actual file for that font is actually nowhere to be found on the computer. The reason why I need to find this file is that it is causing problem in letting safari to correctly display Chinese traditional text. I used to be able to go to font book and disable or remove the font but I went through font book and could not find such font file. I have also searched the entire hd and still could not find the font file.
If you have some ideas about locating that file, I would really appreciate it. Thanks in advance.

I think I found something interesting. Safari 3.1 actually downloads the font web pages uses and save it somewhere NOT in the font book. I found out about this by using firefox, which relies on the font in font book, and by uninstalling safari 3.1 and, before visiting any cite, I checked the kind of fonts available and then after I visit the problem site and voila, the problematic font now appears in one of the selections for safari.
I guess I will just have to stop using safari until I am allowed to control the kind of the fonts I can download.
Thanks,

How do I copy iTunes purchases from one iTunes library to another stored on the same computer but with different apple ID's?

I recently set up a new iTunes account for my son by giving him his own Apple ID & own login on the Mac we own.
In addition I have an existing iTunes account with a different Apple ID & different login on the same Mac.
We would like to share some purchases but do not know how to copy or import certain files. The summary is two
different apple ID's, different iTunes libraries, on the same computer, but different parts of the hard drive.
Please advise. Thanks.

Load the library which doesn't contain the songs and drag them into the open iTunes application window. If you need to move them between different computer user accounts, put them into /Users/Shared/.

LR Photo Import from Camera suddenly not working (5.7.1) - States "Some import operations were not imported becuase they could not be read." Works on another computer and 4.3 version of LR on same computer but not newly installed LR 5.7.1 cc 2014.

As above, all of a sudden, on one computer I cannot download from either the Canon 50D or 70D into LR 5.7.1. It will download on another computer as well as on this computer in an older version of LR (4.3). When I first turned on the computer this morning, I also got an error message that "The Lightroom catalog named 'Lightroom 5 Catalog" cannot be opened because another application already has it opened." It was a cold boot, so I am not sure what is happening.

For the second problem being that the catalog is open in another application, go to the folder containing your catalog. You will find a file with the .lock extension. This is a file created by the catalog, and is automatically deleted when the catalog closes normally. Sometimes it can get left behind. You need to delete that file.
When Lightroom says that the file cannot be read, it usually means that it cannot be written to the chosen destination. This tends to be a permissions problem in your operating system. Check to make sure you have write permission for the folder you are trying to import your images to.

I have to move desks a lot at work. Today I bought $30 worth of music on one computer, but now I'm at another desk and another computer and cannot find my music! Every time I change computers I make sure to log out and log back in. So where is my music?

I have to move desks and computers a lot at work. Today I bought $30 worth of music on one computer - but now I am sitting at a new desk and computer and can't find my music. Don't tell me to make sure I log on and off....i do! So where is my music?

The music you purchased is probably in our profile directory on the computer where you purchased it. Unless your IT department has the computers setup to use "roaming profiles" your "My Music" folder will be stored locally on each computer. I don't know of too many companies that use "roaming profiles" as they tend to cause about as many problems as they were designed to "fix". If you are going to be moving to many different computers, I suggest that you consider moving your iTunes Library to an external drive that you move with you. This way your purchased content is stored on your external drive and not on the local drive of the PC you are using at the time of the purchase.

Some text appears in cyrillic

I know this is an apple font conflict since it only occurs in Mail and TextEdit. If I receive an email, it looks fine. When I reply and then the original person replies, quoted text from SENDER appears in cyrillic. All my quoted emails appear fine. The reason I know this is an apple conflict: If I copy text from anywhere into textedit, it comes in as cyrillic or nonsense characters. I use Font Agent Pro to manage system fonts.
I tried deleting sys fonts and replacing them with OTF version of Times and Helvetica. But soon as I reboot, the original fonts are back.
Any advice?

some recipients (but not all) will see the forwarded email in Cyrillic
That could be an encoding problem or a bad font on their system. Not much you can do without being able to examine what they are seeing in detail.
Similarly, I've had the experience of cutting text from an email, then pasting into Word, and it shows up as Cyrillic.
Could be a bad font on your system. Could you send me a screen shot (tom at bluesky dot org)?
When you have Character Palette open, view=code tables, tab=unicode, 00000000 Basic Latin, click once on a letter like Q, so it is selected. Then go down past Character Info to Font Variation, make sure it says Collections: Containing selected character. Go through all the fonts and any one which does not have a Q is should be deactivated or trashed.

How do I remove my personal text msgs from appearing on my new iPad. Rec for Christmas didn't realize texts appeared on iPad, changed settings, new ones didn't appear but old ones still on it.

New iPad showing my iPhone texts, changed settings new texts stopped but old ones still appear on iPad . It is a family iPad and don't want kids to see text from adults even g rated, glad they didn't see Christmas texts with present pictures and questions from relatives.

As far as I know, deleting the messages on the iPad should not affect them on the iPad. I delete messages on one device and it doesn't affect the messages on the other device since they are stored locally on the device. And ... I am using my iPhone number as the contact address on both devices,
You can create another ID for texting on the iPad, but it's not an absolute must. You just need to use your Apple ID email address, or any other working email address for that matter - as the contact at address on the iPad for texting. As long as you use the iPhone number on the phone and the email address on the iPad, texting paths shall never cross.
this should be of some help.

I have music on one computer but need to move to another

I am sure this has been asked several times but I have not been able to find a concrete answer. I have two laptops. The original one has tons of songs that have not been purchased through itunes but instead downloaded from CD's and an Itunes account they are saved to. I recently purchased a new computer that I started using the same itunes account with but cannot figure out how to get the music from the old computer with the itunes account to the new computer using the same itunes account without having to download all of the music again. Please help!

These are two possible approaches that will normally work to move an existing library to a new computer.
Method 1
Backup the library with this User Tip.
Deauthorize the old computer if you no longer want to access protected content on it.
Restore the backup to your new computer using the same tool used to back it up.
Keep your backup up-to-date in future.
Method 2
Connect the two computers to the same network. Share your <User's Music> folder from the old computer and copy the entire iTunes library folder into the <User's Music> folder on the new one. Again, deauthorize the old computer if no longer required.
Both methods should give the new computer a working clone of the library that was on the old one. As far as iTunes is concerned this is still the "home" library for your devices so you shouldn't have any issues with iTunes wanting to erase and reload.
I'd recommend method 1 since it establishes an ongoing backup for your library.
If you have an iOS device that syncs with contact & calendar data on your computer you should migrate this information too. If that isn't possible create a dummy entry of each type in your new profile and iTunes should offer to merge the existing data from the device into the computer, otherwise the danger is that it will wipe the information from the device.
If your media folder has been split out from the main iTunes folder you may need to do some preparatory work to make it easier to move. See make a split library portable.
Should you be in the unfortunate position where you are no longer able to access your original library, or a backup of it, then see Recover your iTunes library from your iPod or iOS device for advice on how to set up your devices with a new library with the maximum preservation of data. If you don't have any Apple devices then see HT2519 - Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store.

I need to deauthorize only one computer, but I do not have the computer available to me

We just bought a new computer for my daughter and she needs to set up iTunes. The problem is that our account says there's five computers already authorized and we only have three in the house. How can I deauthorize the ones we no longer own or have? Only options at the sight are, deautorize all or this computer.
thanks

You will need to de-authorize all your computers, then re-authorize the ones that need it.
I quote:
If you need to authorize your new computer and are unable due to already having five authorized computers, you can deauthorize all computers by doing the following:
Click iTunes Store on the left side of iTunes.
If you're not signed in to the store, click the Account button, then enter your account name and password.
Click the Account button again (your Apple ID appears on the button), enter your password, and then click View Account.
In the Account Information window, click Deauthorize All.
Note: You may only use this feature once per year. The Deauthorize All button will not appear if you have fewer than two authorized computers. If you need assistance on using this feature, please contact iTunes Store support via email (http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/store/).

HT1420 I want to sell my Mac computer and transfer my itunes to another computer that already has a itunes library. Can I have two separate itunes accounts on one computer?

Also I was wondering how do I clear my computer of all the items like back to factory settings?

Your iPod is designed to sync with only one iTunes library at a time. If you try to sync it with a new or different iTunes library, it will erase what is currently on the iPod and replace it with what is in the new library.
See this older post from another forum member Zevoneer covering the different methods and software available to assist you with the task of copying content from your iPod back to your PC and into iTunes.
