Square Box in AE showing up in Premiere

I'm using Dynamic Link to edit 2 clips from Premiere in After Effects. There is a white square box with a dot in the center in the composition window in AE... I can't get it to turn off and it is showing up in Premiere... and is visible when exporting etc. Can anyone tell me how to turn the box/dot off in After Effects?

Without a screenshot and more details there is no way to have any idea of what you are looking at. The only guess that I have is that you have an unregistered plug-in in AE.

Only Apple Account Security could help at this point. You can try calling Apple Support in Canada - you'll have to find one of the several ways, such as Skype, to call an 800 number from outside of the relevant country - and ask for Account Security and see if they can help. Or you can find a friend who speaks Chinese and ask them to help you talk to Apple Support in China. There are really no other options that I know of.
Note, by the way, that these are user-to-user support forums. You aren't speaking with Apple when you post here.

Small square boxes appearing on blank lines (UPDATED) - The question is, how to get rid of them?

******* As to my display name "All I tried were in use" - when I registered at the Adobe site to use the Browser Lab, I tried something like 10 or 12 user names and finally gave up and went with "All I tried were in use" - my name is Bob
------------------------------- UPDATE --------------------
The problem, small square boxes showing on lines in Freetext Tool comments, is not limited to blank lines, as I originally reported here. These boxes are showing up at the end of every line. It does not matter if the line break is hard or soft, whether the line is empty or not.
Please read the original post bearing mind that the problem is occurring at the end of all lines.
Also - here is a screen capture of a part of one comment box, showing the square lines. I didn't show the entire box because the material above the area I'm showing is a tad private or confidential. Here is the image showing the boxes - note that there is no box at the end of the last line in the comment.
-------- Original Post ------------
We have a copy of Acrobat 5.0. and up until now it has done what we need, which is not much more than adding bookmarks, links, and some touch up. I know it is very old and I know things change. I'm hoping this has nothing to do with the release we are using. I would think this would be a backward compatibility issue if it is a problem with newer Reader versions dealing with PDFs "edited" with 5.0.
I am having small square boxes showing up on blank lines. (read my update above - the boxes are at the end of all lines, soft break or hard break))
I'm a programmer (37+ years in most all aspects of Data Processing) and I decided to learn the PHP programming "language" to add some server side processing to some of my web sites. So, I found a fairly good manual on PHP in PDF form and have been using it.
I quickly found that the PDF didn't have a single link in it and no bookmarks, so I've been adding them as I look up a particular subject. I'm also adding comments and notes to document things not in the original manual or to add comments that would help other programmers` (who know other languages) to adjust to PHPs' way of thinking - for example: in all the other languages I know (perhaps two dozen) to get rid of a file, you "delete" it. In PHP you "unlink" it.
I've added a lot of comments and notes like that and when I view the PDF in Reader (on this computer I have 9.4.2) I'm seeing small square boxes on empty lines. The lines were created when I pressed Enter twice to insert a blank line between paragraphs. (again, read the update at the top of this message - the boxes are at the end of all lines, soft break or hard break)
How can I get rid of them?
They are not present when I've got the PDF open with Acrobat, only when I'm using an Acrobat Reader.
They are also not present if I look at the comments using the Comments navigation panel - that is, they still show on the page, but they don't show in the copy of the comment displayed in the navigation panel.
They are not present in Notes or when I use one of the shape tools (Square Tool, Circle Tool, or Line Tool) to create notes. They are only present in Freetext Tool comments
They are clearly being show where there are successive line feed/carriage return characters - but how do I get rid of them?
I JUST THOUGHT OF SOMETHING - I realized that I'd not printed any of the pages on which I have placed comments and wondered if the boxes show when printing the PDF with Reader -- they do. They are not present if I use Acrobat, not a Reader, to print the same page.
Any assistance you can provide will be greatly appreciated.
Please don't tell me to get a newer version - an expenditure like that is simply and totally out of the picture. For us, this is a Depression, not a Recession - we are self-employed and our businesses have been severely hammered since 2006 - we are down to about 1/4 of our income before the big guys trashed the economy.

P.S. Do you know that you can have a heart attack without chest pain, shortness of breath, or left arm pain? Well, you can! I've had two and the first one nearly killed me because I had no clue it was a heart attack. You can read about it first one here. Pass this on, it could save a life.
My second heart attack occurred on October 4, 20112 - it began, around 3:15 AM, as the first one did, with a headache. It turned out the stent implanted in 2002 had been completely clogged by too much tissue grown. The doctor put another stent inside the first one.

Problem Resolved - it is a font issue. Apparently Acrobat can't handle particular fonts and it is best to stick with a very small slection of fonts - Arial, Helvetica, Times Roman.
I haven't test a lot of fonts. If I do, I'll post there results here.

Square boxes instead of Japanese characters in pdf output of a crystal rep

Hi All,
Did anyone of you ever faced such an issue, where the pdf output of a crystal report shows square boxes instead of Japanese characters when the output is saved in pdf. However the crystal report output looks perfect. I have saved the ouput in xls and rtf formats the characters look perfect as required, the issue we have is when the output is saved as pdf.
I have language pack installed on my machine.
My guess is that the few Character's width is not sufficient and few Characters in other fields appear perfect in pdf. I have to test this, it might take few days before I can access this report. Before that I want to gather information. If anyone has solution to this issue please let me know.
Thanks,
Ravi

Hi,
Could you please answer the following questions
1.What version of Crystal Reports are you using?
Go to Help-> About to find out.
2.What is the font you are using on the report?
Try to change the font style to MS Gothic or Arial Unicode MS, most preferably MS Gothic.
And export the report to PDF format.
This may help you
Thanks,
Praveen G

Gray square box

I realize this is a bit off topic, but i was wondering if anyone you have had this issue. I was working in FCP the other day and I guess I was trying to do just too much at once and my g5 froze and the only way to power it down was to pull the plug. Holding in the power button didn't work. Now when I boot up, the computer shows the apple logo for about 1/2 second then a gray square box. The gray square stays on the screen until I reach my desktop. Computer boots to the desktop fine and i am able to use all apps. Does anyone know what this gray box is and if I should be concerned? i have posted an example here: www.suerothberg.com/IMG_3419.JPG
much thanks.

Onyx is basically the same as running fsck in a nice little app.
Do you have your project files on your system disc? (I do) that's what I would worry about backing up -- desktop setting are easy to redo -- it's the stuff that would take hours/days/weeks to re-do that you want to back up.
Home folder would backup everything (desktop, documents, music, settings etc) but could be fairly large.

The symbol '' changes to a square box in ODI

Hi All,
I have a query where there is a condition such as the one mentioned below:-
DECODE (mc.CURRENCY,
'','EUR',
mc.CURRENCY
When I copy Paste this code the symbol '' gets converted to a square box and the condition returns no rows.
I am able to see this symbol in Toad. But when I copy paste the same expression in SQL Developer it shows nothing.
DECODE (mc.CURRENCY,
' ','EUR',
mc.CURRENCY
Please suggest how to resolve this issue.
Regards,
Prerna

1.) Dont copy paste the symbol. Type it in
2.) If you have to use '' (empty space), then why not use NULL instead ?

Square box around pointer

All of a sudden, a square box of 3 by 4 inches appeared around the pointer.
At the moment it occurred I was in 'Keyboard Shortcuts' of 'Keyboard and Mouse' in Preferences, where I must have touched something.
Any suggestions as to how to free my pointer?

Steven --
Try this:
In System preferences, go to Universal Access.
Open Zoom and click on the Options button.
Make sure that the "Show preview rectangle when zoomed out" box is not checked.

Weird SQUARE BOXES in updated fields

I updates few hundreds of records by multiple updte statements where i copied and inserted values.
I think I left some blank spaces .. i donno but ...
When i SELECT everything from what i updated I see some weird boxes (ONE SQUARE SHAPE BOX) next to the value
Ex: 234567'SQUARE BOX' ----> shape in place of 'SQUARE BOX'
Ex; AGIES'SQUARE BOX' -----> shape in place of 'SQUARE BOX'
But when i select and copy it and paste it into text pad it shows up as 234567 with cursor after few spaces
same is teh case with varchar field.
I tried RTRIM
but no use.
Please suggest

would a regexp replace work. [:cntrl:] are the nonprinting or control characters so maybe
regexp_replace(yourvalue,'[[:cntrl:]]' )

Emulator video capture simulation: the 4 color square-boxes

Hi. Which color square-box represent the up position, of the camera viewfinder, when setting the capture device to videobrush? It looks like it's the black square-box but I'm not sure. Thanks.

Hi. Maybe I can ask you because nobody seems to know. I started with an example from your site to capture videos. The example uses VideoCaptureDevice from Microsoft.Devices namespace. Now I know how to capture video using that API but I want to use AudioVideoCaptureDevice

very much in advance.

Did you just change the file extension? If so, that is why it
wont work,
it needs to be a jpg file, not just a px file with a jpg
extension.
Photodex needs to output a jpg, if it can't, then this file
can not be
used on the internet.

Square boxes in Notepad from TextEdit file

When I put carriage returns in a TextEdit .txt file, they show up as square boxes in one long line in Notepad on a PC.
How do I solve this without needing to worry about how it will display in Notepad?

That's been a problem with straight text files between the Mac OS and Windows since forever. One uses a line feed character to start a new paragraph, and the other uses a carriage return. I don't remember which OS does what.
The Mac has no problem with this difference and will display a Notepad (or any other straight text document) from Windows as you would expect it to look. But Windows never interprets the way a Mac handles text file paragraph breaks correctly.

Non-english character display as square box

Hi all,
I'm not very sure if this question should be asked here or in the JRE board, thus I'm trying here also
I have been trying an opensourced application called Alliancep2p (could be obtained from www.alliancep2p.com) using JRE 1.6 on an English Windows XP Pro machine.
The problem:
all chinese input are displayed as "square box". It looks like the programme "gets" the correct character, only that everything is displayed as "square box".
It looks like a font issue, though I'm not that sure. Is there anyway the default fonts could be changed, or to get the characters correctly displayed?
Note: I have east asian fonts installed, and the Java config panel can display chinese or other non-english characters correctly.
I tried the same application under GNU/Linux (locale is UTF-8) and chinese input/display correctly without any problem at all. Does it mean that it is not the problem of the application, or?
The original question in the JRE board:
http://forum.java.sun.com/thread.jspa?threadID=5265369&tstart=0
Thanks for all the input.

I'm not really sure if it's a problem of the application or not. But the fact that it works perfectly under Linux makes me think maybe it's not the problem of the program, and actually their developers said that unicode is being used all over the program and seems like they're not CJK users also.
I'm not a java guru so I can't really tell from the source if there's anything wrong.

New to FiOS - Set Top Box isn't showing time of day

Issue in rdf output --getting square boxes in the output

Hi All,
I am facing an issue in the report output ...
'Square box ' are getting printed in the output along with data.
Can any one of you please let me know if any one solved such issue before???
Thanks in advance....

Jana,
This is caused (as was said in one of the answers) by a frame of some kind which has a black outline. Run the Report from the Report Builder and look at the
previewer output. See where the box is in the output, go to it and change the outline to white.
