Using font folder in the Library folder OSX10.2.8?

Hi. I've checked postings and searched the database but couldn't find anything. This may be a dumb question. I work on OSX 10.2.8 Jaguar with OS9.22 (Classic). For Classic apps I use ATM Deluxe for font management. I don't have a font management program for OSX. Is it possible to drop the same fonts into the Fonts folder in the Library folder that are also loaded into ATM so that I can access them from both OSX and Classic? Thanks.
Cathy

If you want both OS X and Classic apps to see the same fonts, you place them in OS 9's /System Folder/Fonts/ folder. This is a big hassle though (as you likely already know) since you can't put subfolders of fonts in that folder. Meaning everything has to be tossed in loose, including Type 1 PostScript fonts. Deactivating them is harder. You can just drag the fonts back out, but once placed in its Fonts folder, Classic will not release fonts until you shut it down, even though they're not in the the Fonts folder any more.
You current best bet at a replacement font manager is Master Juggler. It can open and close fonts simultaneously for OS X and 9 (Classic). Suitcase X and X1 did this, but the newest release, Fusion, does not.

  • How do you create a new folder in the library folder

    How do you create a  new folder in the library?

    In the user Library? Open Finder and select Go then press the Option key. In the list you will see your user Library folder (underneath Home). Click it to open it. Now you can add a folder inside. You can left click/hold and drag the Library icon at the top of the Finder window to your Finder Sidebar so it's always avaliable.

  • On a Mac w/ Lion 10.7.2 - Firefox 7.0.1 doesn't see (so can't use) the Quicktime Plugin (it is in the Internet plugin folder in the Library folder and Safari does find it and use it) Any thoughts on getttig it to work w/ Firefox?

    I encountered the same type of problem. Firefox running terribly slowly and slowing down my entire machine (Core i5 with 256GB SSD). Searching the forums, I found a couple of things about troubleshooting performance issues, one of which was to use '''hardware acceleration''', that is on by default. It was turned on on my PC, '''so I tried deactivating it, and it worked!'''
    So doing the exact opposite as Mozilla support said solved the problem. It is really a pain now to work with Firefox. I'm using it because I have no choice, but I'd recommend IE and Chrome over Firefox... Whatever, the market will decide once Firefox has become to crappy...

    The auto recovery dat should be in the Microsoft User Data folder in your documents folder, not in the Library. However, I Haven't had to look recently.

  • HT1347 When I add a folder to the library, does that mean that 'later' when I drop a new file into that folder (already added) it will automatically end up in iTunes? (or do I have to add file/folder to library every time I have a new file??) I'm using XP

    iTunes does not actively scan the media folders.  If you manually add content to a folder, then you must add that content to iTunes manually via the File > Add File/Folder feature.
    The only folder that gets scanned is the "Automatically add to iTunes" folder.

  • How to show the Library folder in an external hard drive

    Hi there,
    I am trying to restore the Skype Chat History to my new computer. 
    My old hard drive crashed and had to be replaced.  Unfortunately my back-up Time Machine file was corrupted due to fact that this is a VERY EASY thing to happen and hence I DO NOT recommend that anyone uses Time Machine through a wirelessly connected hard drive, such as a Time Capsule - a very bad design flaw!
    Luckily I am able to access some of the files on the old hard driave that was removed from my laptop.  However I can not find a Skype folder or the Application support folder under my user name.  Because it is an external drive, I can not use the techniques that have been suggested in other posts (such as using Terminal to permanently show the Library folder or using the Option key).
    Can you please help me!?

    Open a Finder window and choose the external drive with the user folder in the Finder sidebar. Then, make sure you see your user folder in the Finder window, because you will need it.
    Now, open Terminal (in /Applications/Utilities) and type:
    chflags nohidden
    After typing that, press the Space key and drag your user folder from the Finder window to your Terminal window, and after dragging it, now type after the dragged folder (without space):
    /Library
    In Terminal you should see:
    chflags nohidden (yourdraggeduserfolder)/Library
    Finally, press the Enter key and the Library folder will show up

  • Photos in iPhoto cannot be found in the Library Folder on the desktop

    I have a perplexing problem with iPhoto 6. A couple of months ago, I started a new Library and renamed it Current iPhoto Library placing it on the Desktop (rather than in the Pictures Folder).
    I did this because my laptop became too full and I ran out of hard disk space. The original Library resides on an external hard disk.
    I added many new photos to the new Library, inside of new albums.
    My problem is that all the new photos seem detached from the Library Folder on the desktop.
    They do take up memory, and now my laptop hard disk is full again.
    But I cannot free up space because the Library folder does not recognize the existence of the new photos—even though while in iPhoto, with the program is running, I have no trouble accessing all the photos.
    I tried DiskWarrior, assuming that there was a Directory malfunction. That did not help.
    I tried rebuilding the Library using iPhoto's built-in capability, by starting the program while pressing the Command and Option keys. No help.
    How can I make the Library Folder recognize all the photos that iPhoto can see fine within the program?

    First, thank you for keeping up with me.
    Second, where do look for Folder? On the desktop? iPhoto?
    Third, in replaying what must have happened, I think I have an idea of what went wrong. Originally, I moved my first Library to an external HD to free up space on my laptop, and I started a new Library. Some time ago, iPhoto must have spontaneously created a new third Library. It left what I am calling the second Library as the only visible folder containing an iPhoto Library. I was able to mount the small second Library when I restarted iPhoto by pressing Option and selecting the only Library that was visible to me. When I did that, unfortunately iPhoto disengaged from the huge third Library it had created. All along the third Library was invisible on the desktop as a folder--which is why I got into trouble. I ran out of space again and wanted to move the contents of what I now realize was a third Library to another external HD. But I couln't find that Library anywhere. Strangely, for the last three months, I did not know there were three Libraries, only two. The one iPhoto created as the third one worked perfectly when I would start up iPhoto. But now it is gone. Not even DiskWarrior can find it.

    How do you unhide in a Time Machine File?
    What are you trying to do?
    If in the Time Machine interface you wish to restore something in your Library, type cmd-shift-g, then type ~/Library into the path field and hit Go.
    If you are browsing the Time Machine backup using the Finder, I hope you never wanted to use that backup again as you are more than likely going to corrupt it to the point of it not working any longer. If that is the case, you can do the same thing with the Go to Folder command above, just use the full path to where your backup is mounted. The easy way to find the path would be to open another Finder window and navigate to your home folder on the backup. Drag that home folder to an empty Go to Folder path field and it will fill in the full path, then add /Library on the end.

  • What exactly is un-needed from the Library folder?

    I just want to know what exactly is ok to delete and what is not ok to delete from my Library folder. Many things take up a lot of disk space. I know I can delete the printer drivers (2GB)... but I don't know what other stuff is unnecessary. I'm not too skilled when it comes to this kind of stuff so please help me out. I want to clear out as much un-needed stuff as possible. Here are the biggest folders in my Library folder.
    - Application Support folder (3.94GB) [required or not?]
    - Audio folder (2.49GB) [required or not?]
    - Documentation (355.9MB) [required or not?]
    - Receipts (125.4MB) [required or not?]
    Thank you!

    I personally would not start with the Library folder to start trying to make space, unless you really know what you use. Application Support for example, depends on what applications you use or don't use.
    Having said that, you can try this page:

    I've heard others using Monolingual (which they mention) to remove unneccessary language packs with no problem, I'm keeping all mine just in case .

    Users are not qualified to use the library anyway.
    When it's following the Windblows lead, there should also be an option to revert this, to be able to switch the hidden files back to visible. Haven't been able to find that option yet.
    Furthermore, I despise your remark about users not being qualified. When I buy something I have all rights using any and all part of it. Whether that's a sensible choice for each and every user is a whole other question, but to treat all users as one dumb-*** group is not good (IMHO).
