Upgraded and lost some fonts--restore?

I created an InDesign File when I had CS2 installed years ago, and since then I've rebuilt my computer and installed CS4. When I opened that old InDesign File, I got lots of missing font warnings. So I take it that a bunch of fonts that came with CS2 are not in CS4 (although "Helvetica" is one of the missing fonts, which seems very odd indeed).
How can I install all the fonts that came with CS2? Do I have to install CS2 alongside CS4? Or can I just somehow grab the fonts?
Thanks for your advice.

The uninstallers for the Adobe Creative Suite and its component programs do not uninstall any fonts that were installed by same. Such fonts would have been installed directly into your C:\Windows\Fonts directory. And Helvetica was never installed by any Adobe application since Acrobat 3, circa 1997.
I personally no longer have my CD/DVD images from CS2, but I will extrapolate from what I see on my CS3 CD/DVD ISO images. If you had one of the CS2 suites, not just InDesign, you probably had a CD or DVD labelled content or something comparable. It didn't have an installer, but did have a bunch of directories. Look for a directory named goodies and you may find a subdirectory fonts that would have what you are looking for.
Otherwise, why not simply restore the missing font files from one of your system backups from your computer prior to it's being rebuilt? You do backup your system and maintain copies of the backup, right?
By the way, exactly what fonts do you believe are missing from CS4 that were provided with CS2? (Provide font names, please!)

  • HT204150 I connected to iclouds and lost some of my contacts. What can I do to restore them

    I connected by phone to iclouds and lost some of my contacts. What can I do to restore them

    What were you syncing them to? Have you looked in the address book on your computer to see if they are still there? Were you ever syncing them to the address book on your computer? If not, they are most likely gone. You may be able to restore from an earlier backup, but contacts are meant to be synced with an address book or cloud service.

    My phone was stolen.  I first backe up from the icloud but then synced with my computer and lost some pictures that are backed up on the cloud.  How do I get pics from my old phone which are backed up on the cloud but are not in my photostream?

    If you have an iCloud backup, restore it to your phone as explained here: https://support.apple.com/kb/ph12521.  If you have a backup on your computer instead, restore it to your phone by connecting your phone to your computer, opening iTunes and going to File>Devices>Restore from Backup.

  • Synced my iPhone and lost some data

    Synced my iPhone and lost some data (not all) in contacts.  Sync worked before.  How do I get back to before sync?

    You're welcome.
    Does having Outlook 2007 mean you are syncing your iPhone Contacts with Outlook 2007 and the contacts were lost there as well?
    If so and if your routine computer backup includes your Outlook data, restore your Outlook contacts from your Outlook data backup.

  • Recently did an upgrade and lost all my contacts

    recently did an upgrade and lost all my contacts

    Try to check if iTunes made a backup before upgrading the phone. You can check via iTunes or use iPhone Backup Extractor. If there is, you can restore from backup to get your contacts back or simply extract them using the iPhone Backup Extractor. It's worth a try, good luck!

  • Tried to do upgrade and lost everything but contacts. Phone wont sync with computer. Do I need to register it as a new iphone?

    Tried to do upgrade and lost everything but contacts. Phone wont sync with computer. Do I need to register it as a new iphone?

    You should copy everything from your old computer to your new one, then sync.
    The iphone will sync with one computer at a time.  Syncing to another will indeed erase the current content and replace with content from the new computer.

  • I did an upgrade and lost all of my music. i had most of the songs (1400) on an external hard drive. how do i put these songs in my itunes library.? i was able to get them on my ipod some how but i cant play from just the itunes

    i recently did an up grade on my ipod touch  and lost all of my music (1700 songs). all of my music wason my ipod. i have an external hard drive with most of my songs (1400 songs) on it.  through playing around and just trying to fiquire it out, i managed to get the music from the external hard drive to my ipod touch. the problem that i just found out is that i cant play those songs from my computer unless my iopd is connected to the computer. when i try to play a song, it gives me thiserror message " THIS SONG CAN NOT BE USED BECAUSE THE ORIGINAL FILE COULD NOT BE FOUND. WOULD YOU LIKE TO LOCATE IT. please help.what did i do wrong?

    To import music into your iTunes library on the computer go to iTunes>Help>iTunes Help>Add items to iTunes and follow the instructions
    Delete the "songs" that do not play in your iTunes library and reimport them.

  • Uploaded new itunes upgrade and now some music can not be located. a screen appears and says you need to locate the songs in other folders. Any ideas? New upgrade sinks

    Hello
    just did the the new upgrade and now half of my songs are not playing. A screen appears and says you need to search for your music in folders. What the heck happen with this ? Anybody have any issues too?

    This happens if the file is no longer where iTunes expects to find it. Possible causes are that you or some third party tool has moved, renamed or deleted the file, or that the drive it lives on has had a change of drive letter. It is also possible that iTunes has changed from expecting the files to be in the pre-iTunes 9 layout to post-iTunes 9 layout,or vice-versa, and so is looking in slightly the wrong place.
    Select a track with an exclamation mark, use Ctrl-I to get info, then cancel when asked to try to locate the track. Look on the summary tab for the location that iTunes thinks the file should be. Now take a look around your hard drive(s). Hopefully you can locate the track in question. If a section of your library has simply been moved, or a drive letter has changed, it should be possible to reverse the actions.
    Alternatively, as long as you can find a location holding the missing files, then you should be able to use my FindTracks script to reconnect them to iTunes .

  • Lost some fonts

    Hi, My hard drive recently died. I've replaced it and re-installed all my apps and files but one of my favourite fonts is gone. The font is "sand". I can't find it anywhere. I've googled it and found it is an Apple font, yet I can't find it. Anyone have any ideas ? I did find some fonts online with the name sand, but they look different, like a dirty typewriter, the sand I want looks like printing drawn in the sand with a stick. I have some saved files that need it. Any help would be appreciated.
    Thanks
    Randy

    Hi Kappy, thanks for your reply. I had looked on the install DVD but could not find it, but after you wrote I looked again and found out "sand' is an OS9 font. So I got it from the files on my OS9 install package.
    Thanks for getting me thinking

  • I upgraded and lost a lot of data ...where can I recover it?

    I have an imac 27 inch 2009 just upgraded to 10.7.4 and lost mail data and downloads.
    Can anyone tell me how to recover my lost files?
    Thanks
    Dorothy

    Do you have a hard drive that's not filevaulted and desperate enough to spend hours and a couple of hundred of dollars in a data recovery effort?
    Or could you redownload the files that were in the Downloads folder (and shouldn't have remained in there as it's for temporary downloads only) and perhaps do without your soon to be old emails?

  • Have done the iOS 5 update and lost some of my apps now can't get them back and won't let me register my wife's card on my account

    Have done the iOS 5 update and lost half of my apps won't let me get them back and won't let me register my wife's card on my account as I don't use credit or debit cards
    <Edited by Host>

    Relax, nobody's ripping you off...
    Apps are tied to the Apple ID you purchased them on and not the device so getting them all back is easy so long as you know the account details. To reinstall the apps just use the App Store and use the original Apple ID (account) that was used to purchase them, then re-install.  If you setup a new Apple ID on your device when you initialized iOS 5 then go into the App Store app and change the account back to the one that was there before. Then go to update > Not on this iPhone and start installing...

  • Upgraded and lost Myriad Pro font

    I just upgraded to Lion on my Mac and Myriad Pro is no longer in the list of fonts in Illustrator CS5. It is still in Photoshop CS5 and Font Book but it seems as if Illustrator just doesn't recognize it anymore, any suggestions?

    You can download font finagler, or OnyX, find or delete all your .LST files (eg:AdobeFnt11.lst) or use the terminal.
    Here is where the fonts should be:

    Hello Shan_Abrahams,
    it is possible that this apps are not compatible with iOS 5.
    Can you still find them in the app store?
    If no, they are not compatible. If yes, I recommend you to use the way Ingo2711 described.
