Weird, system-wide text misalignment

I've got this issue that shows symptoms in a couple of places. First, it affects Dashboard. A prime example of this is the large numeral denoting the current date in the calendar widget. So today it's a large "7". The number itself has shifted upwards inside the widget, so instead of being split in half by the line, it's split at the bottom of the number.
Secondly, it affects iPhoto. In Events view, the name of each event has shifted upwards as well, so the top half of the words are on top of the event thumbnail itself.
I'm sure it is visible other places as well, but these two are the ones I notice all the time.
FWIW, new accounts do not show this problem. I logged in with the Guest account and the dashboard calendar widget looked normal as did iPhoto, so this is a user-specific issue.
Can anybody help me figure out what the root cause of this issue is?

You are a genius!
Turns out the myriad variations of Helvetica Neue I had installed were confusing the system. It is annoying, however, that now I have fewer variations of Helvetica Neue to use (these are extreme variations, like Black Condensed Oblique, and Extra Black Extended Oblique), but instead of deleting them, I just disabled them so if I have the urge I can use them later if I want.
Thanks so much for your help!

Use system-wide Text replacement to superscript characters? 1st, 2nd, etc

I wanted to use the new text substitution in Snow Leopard to transform typed "1st" and "2nd's" into their 'correct' form with superscripted numerical suffixes. I tried to just easy do it by copying a corrected form out of Pages where I had created a proper "1st,", "2nd," and so on, but when I would paste them into the system prefs pane, they would just paste as regular numerals & letters instead of the superscripted variety.
I then thought to see if I could find the proper superscripted letters in the character viewer but came up empty. Does anyone know of a way to get this working? it's minor and all, but would be a nice addition.

1) yes, I know that
2) how would that help this situation any even if I hadn't? i didn't say "I can't get my text replacements to be accepted in any applications," I stated that I cannot find a way to get the Text System Prefs pane to accept supercripted numerical suffixes.
Sorry to be an *** about it, but everyone's always lambasting posters for not being clear enough or specific enough in what they're trying to do, and I was very clear about what I was asking and even in giving specifics on what i had done to try and remedy the situation myself.
I'm not asking how to get text replacement to work in apps, I'm asking how to get the system-wide text replacement to accept superscripted numerical suffixes in the first place. Maybe it's not possible? maybe it is and I'm missing something, but if so it's specific to the prefs pane, not other applications.

System Wide Text Substitutions

I hope this is the right discussion group for this question. I just discovered that 10.6 has the ability for applications like Text Edit to use automatic text substitutions so that if you type "teh" by accident it will automatically change to "the". This is a great feature since any single "i" will become "I" and so on. You can progran whatever you like. In word processors this would include auto capitalization etc.
Can anyone tell me why this feature does not work for Mail? I am certain more users use Mail than the y do Text Edit (a great programme by the way).
Does Apple intend to extend this feature to Mail in the future. It's always been a problem for me since I use Outlook at work and it includes all those features as part of the Office thing (including auto capitilization). It would really help the workflow of Mail if one could automate some of this stuff.
Thanks

see this link how to enable it system wide. I use it in Mail. very handy.

When I select text, system wide, and delete it, why is the succeeding text then selected?

When I select text, system wide, and delete it, why is the succeeding text then selected?
This doesn't happen all the time, but it's happened enough for me to notice it and get super annoyed by it.
Here's an example. If I have the following text:
The quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog.
And I highlight quick brown and then press delete, I get: (The red shows the selected text)
The fox jumps over the lazy dog.
So when I then start typing, more text is removed than I want. Sometimes this effect carries over, so that the next couple words are selected once I start typing.
It's wonderfully annoying. So I was wondering if anyone else was experiencing such issues or if anyone might have an idea on how to get rid of this problem.
Thanks.

Ooops. I haven't updated my sig in a while. I'm on 10.8.2 and it happens on a late 2008 Alu Macbook.

Text Substitution NOT system-wide!

The text substitution functionality in 10.6 (changing "teh" into "the" etc. automatically) works like a charm in TextEdit but NOT in Mail, Pages, Numbers, Word etc. What am I missing? Pages and Numbers have their own section of text substitution (Preferences Menu - Auto Correction). Does one have to re-encode all the substitutions in these applications? Seems odd as this is presented in 10.6 as a system-wide service (System Preferences - Language and Text - Text)... Especially in Mail this saves a lot of time. Will have to revert to TextExpander... Anybody else bothered with this issue? Found a workaround?
Looking forward to your views!
Hendrik

It works fine in Mail. I've been using it for some time.
You have to turn it on, and there are no preferences for it like they are in TextEdit. Right click in the compose menu and enable it. It must be enabled separately for each application.
You can do the same for Safari as well, when you are entering text in a text box, right click and enable it.

System wide jerky scrolling and delay while typing and selecting text

Hi,
I'm new to Mac (first laptop) and I'm noticing just now that the system response feels very low. There's a significant delay when showing characters after typing as well as selecting text, and jerkiness when scrolling anything, from Finder window contents to Safari web pages.
I take care of not installing suspicious software, I use a limited account for daily taks and haven't installed anything lately. Processor usage is as low as ever. Plenty of memory is free (4GB installed) and free disk space is enough (66 GB).
What is happening? Not even Windows behaved like this!
Please help!!!!

I had installed 10.5.8 and it's kind of iffy with file permissions...
The system-wide jerkiness went away with a reboot, but the Safari jerkiness I could attribute to specially heavy surfing I never did before on that day.
I'm accustomed to my Mac working speedy all the time and because of that I can be unforgiving, and it's wrong. I would never complain of jerkiness on my XP PC when opening 30+ browser instances and 100+ tabs in total because I know XP can't handle it, but that was the kind of thing I threw at Safari. And the experienced jerkiness wasn't even on all pages, just a few.

Set system-wide Finder view preferences

I know that .DS_Store files are created in every directory I enter with the finder in Mac OS X, and that keeps track of the folder's metadata (including how is it being displayed). I also know that this command:
sudo find /Users/[USERNAME]/ -name ".DS_Store" -depth -exec rm -f {} \;
... will recursively delete all .DS_Store files insite the /Users/[USERNAME]/ folder.
Also, I know that when pressing CMD+J inside a finder window, selecting the configuration I want (40x40 icons, small-medium grid space, arrange by kind, text size 10px, show item info, show icon preview, background white) and selecting "use as defaults" will.. well, make it the default, and holding OPT will restore it to THAT default.
The thing is that, when I create a new folder, it doesn't take those parameters. And the folders that HAD .DS_Store files deleted keep that previous configuration, not the "default" one.
What can I do to set a system-wide, consistent finder look?
I'm on Mac OS X 10.6.6.

Hi,
I think I remember a similar problem in Tiger yonks ago. I recall the solution was to make all the changes to the Finder whilst in an Admin account - this way the choices stick for all windows?
Worth a shot.

System wide mini malfunctions

I have a mac mini i5 (2.3 GHz mid 2012)
OS X 10.8.3
I have multiple log in accounts (main, kids etc)
I upgraded to Mountain Lion a few months ago and just now realized there are system wide malfunctions going on.
Prior to upgrade, I backed up, wiped the drive clean, then installed Lion and a week later upgraded to Mountain Lion.
Problems:
Loging into account C: I am greeted with a "Enter iCloud ID or create a new one" then another screen saying "Enjoy your computer." I have entered the info at this prompt and am greeted by the same prompt the next time I log in. I have had an icloud account for months and this info is entered in the Pref Settings as well. It is as if the computer is not remebering the info I am entering.
Login items that have been turned off, will be turned back on after login or reboot.
Account A- Finder - if I customize the side bar of the finder window, it will accept the changes for my current session, but if I log out or restart, the customization is reverted back to the default
Mail - opens two window upon launching, it will not remember my toolbar customization (similar to the finder side bar problem above)
will not remember changes to pref settings like "move junk mail to trash"
Account B Safari will not remember auto log in info.
I've tried repairing disk permissions
I've gotten advice to delete various .plists and data states.
None of this has helped. I feel like I'm working on a computer in the public library. Urrggh!

Back up all data. Don't continue unless you're sure you can restore from a backup, even if you're unable to log in.
This procedure will unlock all your user files (not system files) and reset their ownership and access-control lists to the default. If you've set special values for those attributes on any of your files, they will be reverted. In that case, either stop here, or be prepared to recreate the settings if necessary. Do so only after verifying that those settings didn't cause the problem. If none of this is meaningful to you, you don't need to worry about it.
Step 1
If you have more than one user account, and the one in question is not an administrator account, then temporarily promote it to administrator status in the Users & Groups preference pane. To do that, unlock the preference pane using the credentials of an administrator, check the box marked Allow user to administer this computer, then reboot. You can demote the problem account back to standard status when this step has been completed.
Triple-click the following line to select it. Copy the selected text to the Clipboard (command-C):
{ sudo chflags -R nouchg,nouappnd ~ $TMPDIR.. ; sudo chown -R $UID:staff ~ $_ ; sudo chmod -R u+rwX ~ $_ ; chmod -R -N ~ $_ ; } 2> /dev/null
Launch the Terminal application in any of the following ways:
☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Terminal in the icon grid.
Paste into the Terminal window (command-V). You'll be prompted for your login password, which won't be displayed when you type it. You may get a one-time warning to be careful. If you don’t have a login password, you’ll need to set one before you can run the command. If you see a message that your username "is not in the sudoers file," then you're not logged in as an administrator.
The command will take a noticeable amount of time to run. Wait for a new line ending in a dollar sign (“$”) to appear, then quit Terminal.
Step 2 (optional)
Step 1 should give you usable permissions in your home folder. This step will restore special attributes set by OS X on some user folders to protect them from unintended deletion or renaming. You can skip this step if you don't consider that protection to be necessary, and if everything is working as expected after step 1.
Boot into Recovery by holding down the key combination command-R at startup. Release the keys when you see a gray screen with a spinning dial.
When the OS X Utilities screen appears, select
Utilities ▹ Terminal
from the menu bar. A Terminal window will open.
In the Terminal window, type this:
res
Press the tab key. The partial command you typed will automatically be completed to this:
resetpassword
Press return. A Reset Password window will open. You’re not going to reset a password.
Select your boot volume ("Macintosh HD," unless you gave it a different name) if not already selected.
Select your username from the menu labeled Select the user account if not already selected.
Under Reset Home Directory Permissions and ACLs, click the Reset button.
Select
 ▹ Restart
from the menu bar.

How To Hide In Stock/Out Of Stock System Wide?

Hi,
We are selling items that are setup as Bills of Material. The problem is that they always show as Not In Stock on the website. This is because the stock levels come from OITM (Items in B1) and for BoMs the matching item in B1 does not get a stock level. Since the item stock level is the one used in Web Tools, I would simply like to hide any warnings about items being 'Not In Stock' because it's not an accurate statement. I know the customer can still place an order but it might make someone change their mind about ordering an item if they 'think' it's not in stock.
Is there any system wide setting to hide all stock level indications and warnings about out of stock items?
Thanks,
David Wall

Hello David,
This is possible, but it is a couple of steps:
1) In windows explorer navigate to c:\inetpub\wwwroot\b1webtools\catalog\controls\ and open up partpriceblock.ascx with a text editor such as note pad. You want to modify the following lines by putting comment marks around them like this (HTML comment marks are )
     
For the instock/out of stock and

To hide the inventory count.
2) You will also need to modify the cart.aspx page which can be found in c:\intepub\wwwroot\b1webtools\commerce\ like this:
                
3) And lastly the cartdetaillistblock.ascx control which can be found in the controls folder of the above stated directory. Modifying as shown below:

It should also be noted than an upgrade will overwrite these changes, but in the majority of situations you can reuse the modified ASPX/ASCX pages by overwriting the newer pages with the older modified pages.
Hope this makes sense.
Kind Regards,
James

Do you have extended AppleCare?

System wide spelling

For some reason system wide spelling has been disabled...
i have enabled it again in safari and text edit, but is there a way to enable system wide spelling with one option instead of enabling it tediously in each app???
thanks

Those are a few for a start. The problem is not as rare as one might think if one saunters around the other threads.
I will try your suggestion of making another user account to see if it works. However, even if it does, it is far from an ideal solution as I only want one account from which to work in.
Thanks.

Where can I get a system wide Visual EQ for my Macbook pro?

Hey guys, I use logic pro X a lot! I love the channel EQ plugin and when I listen to music or watch a movie I wish I had the Channel EQ. Is there a way to either use that plugin system wide or is there a place i can download something close to that? I used soundflower for a while but I really want a visual EQ for those weird extreme highs from movies or bad recordings.

Apple would be the main supplier of any replacement parts.

Upgrading to 10.7.5 broke copy/paste system wide

I upgraded to 10.7.5 though software update and it appears doing so has broken the paste command, system wide.
I can cut (and perhaps copy) text of out fields. When I try to paste, the Edit menu lights up but nothing happens. This occurs when I hit command + V or when choosing Edit from the paste menu.
Have tried restarting the finder, and rebooting. Thoughts?

Step one is to log into a newly created admin user account and see if the problem persists.
