Speed of text appearance

I've opened an existing PowerPoint presentation into Keynote. The text boxes had been set to appear letter by letter. I'm finding that they all race onto the screen, and would like to find a way to slow down the appearance of the text. I'm using the Dissolve effect, by Letter, in the Build In section of Inspector. I've increased the duration, but that doesn't seem to slow down the appearance of the text in the text boxes.
Suggestions?

Same issue here on my Q5. Same problem occured with the 10.1 os that come with my one month old Q5 and now that I have upgraded to 10.1, the same problem is still there. It takes time to appear and to disappear. 15-20 seconds. Just with SMS/MMS.
Also, the Calendar is a mess. It does not stop making mistakes such as appearing in wrong dates....
I had none of these issues with my old Curve 9300.

  • How to text swipe,text appears while following stroke?

    I am trying to make actual text that appears over time.
    I am not trying to make a swipe where it appears from left to right, but i want it to look like the text is being drawn.
    I know how to stroke a path and have that appear over time, but it looks like hand drawn text. I am wondering if there is away to make actual text appear over time.
    I  found this tutorial on youtube where text looks hand drawn and appears by following a pen tool that has ben stroked.
    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XizCYi8ec-U&feature=relmfu
    What would i call what i am trying to do, text swipe?
    If possible can you post a link to a tutorial or a preset?
    Any help is appreciated.
    Thanks!
    I am working in CS5.

    I am trying to make crisp text appear with a constant lightning bolt, but not a full letter at a time.
    I want it to look like the lightning is a pen writing the text.
    I don't have any example as i have not come across any examples as of yet.
    That youtube video is the closest i have come to so far, the speed and appearing of text are correct in the video, but i wan't this to be accomplished with a lightning bolt and actual text, not just stroking a bunch of pen lines.
    Swipes are found in "presets,transition wipes".
    A sand to text (or text to sand) is considered a wipe.
    The more i think avout this, the more i think i may use a wipe and increase the amount of lightning to encompass the vertical height of the text to make this happen. And wipe from left to right keeping the lightning and wipe the same speed.

  • HT1296 I recently purchased songs from my iphone.  All good...  But I then went to put them on my ipod touch.  They seemed to have downloaded but the songs wont play and the song title/the text, appears in a grey colour.

    I recently purchased songs from my iphone.  All good...  But I then went to put them on my ipod touch.  They seemed to have downloaded but the songs wont play and the song title/the text, appears in a grey colour and there is a downlaod symbol in front of the song title.  what do i do next??  They play on my iphone and from the itunes library but not from my ipod touch.

    If the songs are still on your ipod, make sure autosync is disabled in iTunes on your computer, connect and right click on it in the device list, then choose "transfer purchases" to copy all bought media and apps from your ipod to your computer.
    If the songs are not on your computer and got deleted from your ipod as well, you can't get them back, unless you have a backup of your iTunes library as part of your computer backup.

  • No Text Appears in Book (Preview and in Book)

    I just receive a Medium Soft Cover book from Apple and to my surprise there was no text present. I tried printing to pdf or previewing within iphoto and no text appears as well. My font sizes are all small. I even created a new book with a couple photos and used the default text - still no text in preview.
    Someone suggested ditching the preferences file for iphoto as well as the cache. My fear in doing that is that the whole iphoto library gets reset...is there another way?
    help?

    Go to your User/Library/Caches folder and look for a folder titled iPhoto. Drag it to the Trash. I will get recreated the next time iPhoto needs to create a cache file.
    Do you Twango?
    TIP: For insurance against the iPhoto database corruption that many users have experienced I recommend making a backup copy of the Library6.iPhoto database file and keep it current. If problems crop up where iPhoto suddenly can't see any photos or thinks there are no photos in the library, replacing the working Library6.iPhoto file with the backup will often get the library back. By keeping it current I mean backup after each import and/or any serious editing or work on books, slideshows, calendars, cards, etc. That insures that if a problem pops up and you do need to replace the database file, you'll retain all those efforts. It doesn't take long to make the backup and it's good insurance.
    I've written an Automator workflow application (requires Tiger), iPhoto dB File Backup, that will copy the selected Library6.iPhoto file from your iPhoto Library folder to the Pictures folder, replacing any previous version of it. You can download it at Toad's Cellar. Be sure to read the Read Me pdf file.

  • Text appearing as white on white on a webpage?

    A friend of mine created this website http://www.confinementmovie.com/ but for me in Safari (and Firefox) most of the text appears as white on a white background (i.e. it can't be read unless highlighted with a mouse). He said this isn't true for other people he's shown it to. Is this a problem of some settings on my computer/browsers, or a problem in the html of his site?

    Thanks for checking! From further information I have received elsewhere, evidently the site was created in Microsoft Word and only displays properly in Internet Explorer.

  • Text appearance in adobe acrobat (pro) files displays inconsistently unless you zoom in. Mainly 'i's and 'l's look bigger than they should.

    Text appearance in adobe acrobat (pro) files displays inconsistently unless you zoom in. Mainly 'i's and 'l's look bigger than they should.
    The pdfs print fine though.

    Try doing a spotlight search for all files that start with AdobeFnt. They will be named AdobefntXX.lst, with the XX being some number. They will be scattered across the drive... After making sure that all Adobe applications are closed, trash all the adobefntxx.lst files, those with the 3 letter extension .lst.
    Then, restart the system, and open the files in Acrobat again.
    Otherwise, what happens in Safe boot? (Remember, Safe boot loads only a default set of fonts.) If they display fine there, the problem most likely is a font issue, one of the fonts that Adobe installed.
    Check Adobe's web support page for troubleshooting Fonts.
    - or -
    Contact Adobe about the whole issue, it is after all, Adobe Acrobat... Adobe's contact number is 800 833 6687.

  • Typing yields only "ding" and no text appears!!!

    This can't get any more basic!!!
    New document, typing on keyboard yields only ding sound and no text appears in the document!!!  ***????

    You probably have opened a blank Layout mode template which has no default text area.
    There are 2 kinds of templates, Word Processing templates which flow from page to page and which you can just type into, and Layout templates which require you to create text boxes to type into.
    See the sidebar in the Template Chooser to see which is which.

  • Text appears in the FIND bar rather than website fields. How can I fix this?

    When I type text into a search box in a website such as Google, ebay or Amazon, the text does not appear in the field; instead the firefox FIND bar automatically pops up and the text appears in it instead. How can I prevent this from happening?

    Usually if you click in the field, Firefox will interpret the typing correctly.
    Could you check to see whether you have this feature turned and, if you do, turn it off:
    orange Firefox button (or Tools menu) > Options > Advanced > General mini-tab > "Search for text when I start typing"
    If that was on and you turn it off, does that fix the problem?
    If not, could you try the same pages in Firefox's Safe Mode? That's a standard diagnostic tool to bypass interference by extensions (and some custom settings). More info: [[Troubleshoot Firefox issues using Safe Mode]].
    You can restart Firefox in Safe Mode using
    Help > Restart with Add-ons Disabled
    In the dialog, click "Start in Safe Mode" (''not'' Reset)
    Any difference?

  • Safari 4.0.5 Text Appears as an A inside a Square

    Just got my new Macbook Pro. However I am observing some strange behavior on some websites. Some of the text appears as an "A" inside a square. i've noticed this at Ebay and at SFGate.com. Any ideas?

    Could something has been brought over that is causing the issue?
    Yes! Definitely. I was just getting ready to ask if you had used the MA.
    From the Safari Menu click File/Export Bookmarks. Save that file to an external source.
    Now go to ~/Library/Safari and move the Bookmarks.plist / History.plist / LastSession.plist files to the Trash.
    Then go to ~/Library/Caches/com.apple.Safari and move the "Cache.db" file to the Trash.
    Restart your Mac, launch Safari and try SFGate.com
    If nothing helped, repair disk permissions. Launch Disk Utility. (Applications/Utilities) Select MacintoshHD in the panel on the left, select the FirstAid tab. Click: Repair Disk Permissions. When it's finished from the Menu Bar, Quit Disk Utility and restart your Mac. If you see a long list of "messages" in the permissions window, it's ok. That can be ignored. As long as you see, "Permissions Repair Complete" when it's finished... you're done. Quit Disk Utility and restart your Mac.
    If that didn't help, install the v10.6.3 Combo Update It's ok to do this even if you are already running v10.6.3

  • Is there a way to still get audible alerts of new messages without having any banners or text appear in the lock screen?

    I'm trying to make sure I am doing this correctly.  How do you set up alerts for both text messages and iMessages so that even when the phone is locked you will still get an audible or vibration alert as soon as the message is received?  And is there a way to do this without having any text appear on the lock screen that shows who the message is from.  My phone stays in locked mode most of the time but I still want to recieve alerts for new messages as soon as they arrive.  I'm also concerned about privacy so I don't want any text or preview or even any information about the sender to appear on the lock screen.  I just want a vibration or audible alert.

    Open the Settings app > Notifications > Messages. Scroll down adn turn OFF "View In Lock Screen". You may want to consider setting Alert style to none, but this will not impact what happens when the screen is locked.

  • Bold text appears bold and italic

    Hi Folks,
    Can anyone please explain why this happens?
    In FW when I click the bold text button, the text appears bold but italic aswell.
    Thanks in advance

    That's unusual. Which version of Fireworks and what operating system are you using?
    If you click on the Faux Italic button, is the italic styling removed? (It should be. If not, click twice.) You might want to try quitting and restarting the application—or shutting down and restarting your computer—and see if this takes care of the problem.
    FYI: It's generally a better choice to add bolding via the Font Style dropdown menu, if that style is available within the currently selected font family.

  • Safari Text Appearing Bunched Up

    Hey everyone, I'm new to this forum, so go easy scoundrels..
    I've been having this problem for a while - basically, when I view certain pages on safari the text appears all bunched up with disregard to what lines or spacing there should be...
    Now, it didn't bother me too much, because it doesn't happen on very many sites (a notable one is imdb.com), but I've recently bought dreamweaver for mac, and previewing sites has become a nightmare, as much of the text doesn't work - and it does when I use dreamweaver preview on other computers... so it must be a fault with my computer, rather than a fault with the websites...
    Here is a screengrab of what it looks like - any ideas would be massively appreciated...

    Hi
    Welcome to Apple Discussions
    The two fonts that seem to adversely affect Safari are Helvetica Fractions and Times Phonetic.
    Open Font Book in your Applications folder. Enter either of these names in the spotlight panel. If either appears, disable it via the Edit menu.
    If the above referenced fonts applies to your situation, download a copy of Font Nuke. This will allow you to clean the Font cache.
    When done, restart the computer/Safari.

  • Delay from when typed to when text appears on screen?

    I'll type but there is a long lag time before the text appears on screen.
    This seems to have started after upgrading to Mavericks and is most noticeable in Apple Mail.
    Any tips as to how to diagnose and fix?
    FWIW.....
    I'm on a MacBook Pro (closed lid), Apple monitor, Apple wireless keypad and mouse.
    And now OS X 10.9.3.
    Thank you.

    I had a very similar problem.  No matter where I typed (Word, Apple Mail, online, etc.) I would get a typing lag.  I did all the self diagnostics, repair disk, hardware test, PRAM reset, etc.  Still had the problem. Even my mouse was lagging when i moved it. I took it to the Genius Bar and they did a hardware check and it did not reveal any problems.  The tech said it still may be a hard drive or memory problem. They reformatted the hard drive and did a clean install of mavericks.  I moved a few items from my time machine back up and the problem started to occur again.  I reinstalled my old RAM, still had the problem.
    I had wanted to upgrade to a Solid State Drive (SSD), so I purchased a Samsung EVO 500 GB SSD.  As I was cloning the new hard drive, I noticed the problem wasn't occurring anymore.  So I suspect it was the hard drive starting and stopping that was causing the problem.  During the cloning process the installed drive was constantly spinning, therefore not starting and stopping. I've installed the new SSD and in addition to the lag problem going away, my Macbook is wicked fast!
