Text overlapping problem

Since I upgraded to 10.4.10, I dont know if I did something wrong but I have bad text overlapping problems in Safari and some other apps such as Software Update, I first noticed the overlapping when editing a Wikipedia article and in the text box the text kept overlapping. Another site where it is very noticeable is in Facebook, here's a screenshot:
Even on this site it's pretty bad. It's the worst in text-boxes like in the one I'm typing in right now.
This is driving me crazy, anyone else have this problem or know how to fix it? Thanks.

Ok, Johnny --
I hated to ask cause it's "Old School."
If you shut down your Mac every night,
you should have something on your Mac that will run cron scripts,
and do other helpful things for you.
I personally use YASU.
I run it about 1x month.
It's free or donation-ware
it's written just for Macs
and is excellent.
Here's where to go for more info on it:
http://jimmitchell.org/projects/yasu/
The new Macs were built to stay on 24/7.
When you shut them off at night, you stop the regular
maintenance it already has scheduled. YASU (or similar apps)
will take care of everything for you.

  • Safari text overlapping problem

    Hello,
    I'm using Safari 3.0.3 and nowadays I'm experiencing strange problem, which seems to be difficult to explain. The text letters of different web pages is being overlapped for unknown to me reason. If there is a way I'd rather attach a screenshot for better understanding. Does anybody know what is the reason?
    Regards,
    Mike

    Mike and Holger,
    If you have 'Helvetica Fractions', 'Times Phonetic' or 'Rougue Stencil-Type' fonts installed, delete them.
    -delete your fonts caches with FontNuke 1.1.5 +(or with whatever utility you usually use)+
    <http://www.macupdate.com/info.php/id/21536/fontnuke>
    -restart your Mac
    -open your Font Book->Edit menu 'Select All' fonts - from the File menu 'Validate Fonts'
    -from the Edit menu select 'Resolve Duplicates' +(if you have any duplicates)+
    Good luck,
    Tom

  • Chart Legenditem text overlap

    Hello,
    I create a line-chart mit 7 series. The title of the series is 20 Char, for example "Cloppenburg/Emsland". In the legend of the chart the text overlap. In the example overlap text 4 text 1
    Legend:
    text 1      text 4      text 7
    text 2      text 5
    text 3      text 6
    Can I write the text one below the other? For Example:
    text 1
    text 2
    text 3
    text 4
    text 5
    text 6
    text 7

    Please help, because the legend look terrible.
    I use HTMLDB 2.0

    I have created a work-around to my problem by setting all y-axes precision to zero, then setting each y-axis visible/invisible, then resetting the original precision of each y-axis.

  • Text box problem or question

    I'm having the text field problem. I have two text boxes (inside my .fla file) one i can add more text without the box expanding and can  then select the text and croll down to view the missing text and the other one just gets longer the more text I add. I'm trying to duplicate the text box that does not expand the more text I add to it.
    All the settings in the properties are the same on both and I've tried it in MX and CS3 and the both have the same properties in both.
    I'm stumped can anyone help.
    I'm attaching the file.
    Thanks!

    If you right click the textfield on the stage you can select the "scrollable" option for it.  Another option to duplicate the textfield is to copy/paste it.

  • Question on the known solution to the "Three pixel text jog" problem

    Hello,
    I'm "browser-checking" my website using Dreamweaver CS4 tool for that. I've got in various places the "three pixel text jog" IE problem. I followed the link to solution proposed by DW. It says I should add an IE conditional statement in the <head> part, so that I can define the CSS zoom property for that particular element. Hence, something like that:
    <!--[if IE]>
    <style type="text/css">
    #Content p { zoom: 1; } /* three pixel text jog IE bug */
    </style>
    <![endif]--> 
    (assuming the problem occurs for a <p> inside my #Content div.)
    My question is: can I replace this by
    <!--[if IE]>
    <style type="text/css">
    #Content * { zoom: 1; } /* three pixel text jog IE bug */
    </style>
    <![endif]--> 
    For another browser problem (prevent the browsers from using some of their own default settings), it was advised to reset the margin, padding and border properties using:
       border: 0;
       margin: 0;
       padding: 0;
    (although in my case I had to later remove border: 0; because it would prevent default buttons of forms to be displayed as buttons.)
    Does this * really mean "anything"? Is it valid as used above for fixing the three pixel text jog problem? If not, do I really have to define this zoom property for any single HTML element for which it occurs? (It currently occurs for some headers, <div>, "<div> <div>" sequence, some <p>.)
    Any comment welcome...
    Emilie
    P.S.: I tried it and DW doesn't flag that problem any more, but I'm unsure how much I can trust it.

    The behavior is unexpected. The file paths are
    correct?

  • We bought an iphone 4s for our daughter. We transfered it to straight talk. She can make calls and text no problem. She can use the WiFi but is unable to use the internet or mms. How do we update the APN?

    We bought an iphone 4s for our daughter. We transfered it to straight talk. She can make calls and text no problem. She can use the WiFi but is unable to use the internet or mms. How do we update the APN?

    To clarify for anyone who is still having any problems doing this.
    1. Unlock your phone with the carrier ( I know the process will work if it is jail broken but I am assuming you dont want to void the warranty on your phone) NOTE: even if you purchased the phone outright at Wal-Mart it is still locked to ATT so you will have to unlock the phone.  If it's already unlocked skip to step 2.  This works and will work even if you update the phone. 
    1a Here is the link to unlock a ATT iphone. Simply follow the instructions https://www.att.com/deviceunlock/client/en_US/
    2. Get a T- mobile SIM. Even if you don't want the service, if you feign interest, they will send you one for free or 99cents. If you need it now you can get one at a T-mobile store too.
    3. Once you have both your Straight talk SIM and your T-mobile SIM follow these instructions:http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mFFf5uqk18M
    4. If you have any remaining questions look at all the responses posted previously on this thread or check out the Howard Forums Wiki: http://wiki.howardforums.com/index.php/Straight_Talk_iPhone
    Everything should work flawlessly at this point.  If not let me know and I'm happy to help when I can.  I hope this makes doing this very easy for everyone in the future. God Bless -J

  • Font / text edit problem in photoshop CS6

    Hi there,
    I have a strange text edit problem in Photoshop CS6 running on Mavericks.
    Every time I use the text-tool in PS, write a sentence, mark it and change something like color, font size etc., the marked text vanishes.
    I have to "undo" the last step and the changed text appears again.
    Every time!
    I have a clean installed CS6 with no plugins and no other than system fonts installed.
    Everything on a new Mac Pro with OS X 10.9.5
    Any clues? Thanks.

    Do you have the latest updates for photoshop cs6?
    You can use Help>Updates from within photoshop cs6 to check if there are any available.
    Also, if you go to Help>System Info from within photoshop cs6, you can see the Photoshop Version in the top line.
    You should be on version 13.0.6
    See if turning off Dictation solves the issue.
    Go to System Preferences ---> Dictation and Speech -----> select OFF radio button .

  • Barcode Text Overlaps

    Hello all,
    i'm using barcodes in the Adobe Forms. The barcode templates are UPC-A and Code128SSCC.
    The text which should appear for the barcodes - are embedded below the barcode image. during the design time, the barcodes looks great (the image and the text embedded below properly). However during preview/runtime, the barcode text overlaps the barcode image.
    Is there anyway i can avoid this? or is this a product bug?
    thanks
    ak

    Hi Ak and Amita,
    First, I checked if the two mentioned barcodes work with my Designer (8.0) and they do work in PDF preview (Reader 8.1.3). When you say text you mean the digits of the barcode, right? You do not mention the Designer version, reader version or what "text" exactly means. Is PDF the relevant output format in your case? This makes it difficult to answer your question.
    Amita,
    I posted a blog as introduction to barcodes and IFbA. Hope this helps. Next time, please post a new question.

  • Text overlapping image problem in IE6

    A colleague has sent me the following screen print:
    www.pcave.plus.com/temp/screendump_overlap_problem.jpg
    When I look at the main site
    www.ski-monterosa.com in
    FF, IE7 and Opera, it all looks fine, but there is obviously
    something going on and I'm not sure what it might be.
    Could some kind soul take a look and offer a little advice?
    Many thanks in advance.

    Your use of layers is the reason for the overlap. See this
    page for a
    simplified example -
    http://www.great-web-sights.com/g_layer-overlap.asp
    In general you should never use absolutely positioned
    containers for text on
    your page.
