Why are my fonts and graphics not showing up on some computers?

Help for a newbie?
I just published my first website! It's pretty basic, but I
learned a lot.... But some of the colors and fonts show up
differently on different computers. Also, I created an image that
had gray and white marbling and it showed up as just gray on the
website.
Can you tell me what I need to do to make my graphics show up
properly?

Sorry, but that is NOT what web-safe colors refer to. In the
old days many
users had 8-bit graphics cards capable of displaying only 256
colors.
Web-safe colors were those included in the most common 256
color palette.
Today hardly anybody uses 8-bit graphics cards so designers
are safe using
full-color (24- or 32-bit) palettes. Your comment that colors
are subjective
is correct if you mean that colors will often display
somewhat differently
computer to computer. This is because of the wide variation
of graphic
cards, monitors, room lighting, etc. What looks like dark red
on my screen
might look brown on another. This is unavoidable.

Why are my apps and others not showing on itunes?

I recently moved my itunes folder to an external hard drive. Since then my apps, ringtones and books are not showing on itunes when loaded up on my laptop. Music, films and tv programmes are all fine and playback fine.
I have checked the itunes media folder on the external hard drive to make sure they are there to which they are, they are also in there respective folders inside the media folder.

Why are the text and graphic elements are not showing on the iPad

I have a slideshow of pictures full bleed on my inDesign document with text and graphics on top of the pictures (not part of the slideshow).
When I preview on the iPad all I can see is the gallery of images?
Is it not possible to put text on top of a slideshow?
Here it is as it appears on InDesign...
...and here as it appears on the iPad...
Any ideas? I'm pretty new at this, but I couldnt find anything in the forums
Many thanks for reading

They're called overlays for a reason. You'll need to change the text to an MSO as well.
Select it, create a new MSO, set it to play once no delay, no crossfade.
Other choice would be to put the text into each state of the MSO.

Why are the date and time not updating in backups.backupdb folder?

I just started using Time Machine on my early 2011 MacBook Pro running 10.7.2. After the initial full back-up and first few updates, the backup folder (on an external 1.5 TB Firewire drive) continues to show the original "date modified" of the very first back-up and lists the size as a ridiculous 2.48 GB. (Using BackupLoupe, I know it actually is 280 GB, reflecting the size of my internal HD). Any idea why this folder's info is not updating in the finder (even using "Get Info")? Are my back-ups really there? (It certainly seems so according to BackupLoupe).

First, the best way to view or restore from your backups is via the Time Machine display, per Time Machine - Frequently Asked Question #15. Using the Finder is not recommended.
Do not worry about the dates. First, the date modified only applies to the "parent" folder; that's not the Backups.backupdb folder, but the one inside it that's named for your Mac.
Don't worry about the sizes, either. On Leopard and Snow Leopard, the size of a backup folder was the total size of all the items that were on your Mac at the time of that backup (less exclusions). On Lion, however, it's the "unique size" -- the size of items that appear only on that backup.

Why are my deleted imovie events not showing up in mac trash?

I dleted an event in imovie on my macbook pro, it dissappeared, but I can't for the life of me find it in my mac trash.

No solution to offer, but I can say that you are not alone. I am having the same exact problem.
I installed "Photos" around April 8. "My Photo Stream" shows up in the sidebar containing pictures up through April 6 - nothing later. Photos taken with my iPhone since then do not show up.
My iPhone and iPad both have Photostream on and working. Photos taken with either show up almost immediately on both devices. It is only "Photos" on the desktop machine which is broken. Like you, I have tried turning Photostream on/off, restarted both desktop machine and phone. Nothing. "Photos" photo stream is stuck in time at April 6.

Why are my photos on iPhone not showing up on the iPad?

photo stream is on both the iPad and iPhone but the pics on my iPhone are not showing up on the ipad

I'm not sure how true this is..... Then again I'm not sure I totally understand this whole cloud thing yet. But I have 742 photos on my photo stream on my iPhone and only 144 of them on my iPad. I turned off photo stream on the iPad and turned it back on and it loaded even less then the original 144 pics. I'm at a loss. They were all synced with my iPad until recently. And if this statement is true about syncing only the new ones since turning on photo stream then my iPad photo stream would have loaded zero pics. What happened?

Why Are My Fonts and Imported Photos Pixelated in Photoshop?

It is so strange. I worked on a Photoshop document earlier today. I imported a photo and wrote text on it. When I printed it, it came out perfect. Then I started a new document. I imported a photo which is 2400 pixels wide. The document size is only 11 inches wide so the photo should stay nice a sharp. I also wrote text on the document. Both in screen mode and when I print this new document, everything is pixelated and fuzzy, not crisp like my first document. Also, when I type text the font is in SHARP mode so I don't see what the problem is. Please help? Please help me get sharp prints again.
Thank you,
David

I have never had this issue before. Whenever I PLACED a document, it was always sharp, no matter what size the document was? Also, why is the font type pixelated? I would be happy to send you the PSD so you can see for yourself.

Why are my fonts and font sizes completely haywire in 6.0.1?

I have never has issues with fonts and Firefox. I upgraded to 6.0 two days ago and everything turned to Arial Narrow. Fonts were smaller, fonts are mismatched on pages and look strange. I tried changing the options and setting minimum font sizes and font faces, but when I use the back button these font faces and sizes no longer exist and I see the page in Arial Narrow again. This is so frustrating - I can't even browse the web because I can't read the darn thing.

Check the font prefs and the various text-cnetric panels' options. this happenes when you choose to group by English name, but the font is encoded for a different region/ uses a different set of characters.

Someone actually responded to me in another thread:
https://discussions.apple.com/message/16418849#16418849
Told me to try unchecking the box to sync Photos.
Do a sync.
Then check the box.
And sync again.
Going to try that now. Let me know if it works for you James

Why are Apple Mail and Addressbook not listed?

In Support, neither Apple Mail nor Addressbook are listed on OS apps. And if you go to Feedback > Product Feedback, there are 31 apps listed, but Apple Mail and Addressbook are not listed there either. Mac OS X is, so you need to use that for these apps.
But I think the lack of listing is not so bad, but is indicative that Apple doesn't seem to embrace these apps the way it does it's other OSX built in apps. They are basically good apps. I use them as my default apps along with iCal in order to always be in sync with the latest OSX release/update. I used to use 3rd party PIM apps but then had to always wait until they released their update to be in sync with the latest Apple OS. After awhile I realized the smarter approach was to use Apple's software as much as possible since they will be designed to work with the latest OS upon the release of the latest OS.
But the built in apps: iCal, Addressbook and Apple Mail, while sufficient, are not full featured robust apps like their 3rd party competitors. I have to assume some this is financial since they are included in the OS where as 3rd party apps cost $40 and up, plus upgrade costs after a certain cycle lifespan.
Personally, I never want to use a calendar, contact manager or email 3rd party clent again so that I am fully in the Apple family with hardware and software all made to work together.
If the reason these type apps are not more robust is because Steven didn't feel we needed more, or because there are only so much design and programmng resources Apple can apply to essentially "free" apps, I would welcome a paid for "Pro" version of these apps to pay for more features.
Example: while iCal and Addressbook sync with all your devices, Apple Mail doesn't. Now that I have a new 2nd computer (MBP), I would REALLY love it if all my folders on the left column were identical on both my Mac Pro and MacBook Pro.
There are other feature requests I would make, and bet you would too.
I hope this is helpful to all and to Apple in terms of making their indigenous apps more robust for us, listing them in the OSX apps list in Support and Feedback and embrace them as signature Apple apps fully supported, developed and proud of.
Just my opinion.
Steven

Example: while iCal and Addressbook sync with all your devices, Apple Mail doesn't. Now that I have a new 2nd computer (MBP), I would REALLY love it if all my folders on the left column were identical on both my Mac Pro and MacBook Pro.
My Mail syncs, I don't know why yours doesn't. All the folders on the left of my Mail App are identical on all of my Macs and my iPhone.
In Support, neither Apple Mail nor Addressbook are listed on OS apps.
Granted, Contacts (No longer AddressBook) is not listed.

Central Search - why are my config criteria settings not showing?

Hi
I have set up the central search feature and and it works well. The SAP standard criteria attributes are displayed. Using the configuration tool on component BP_HEAD_SEACH I have chosen to display only:
Name1 / Last Name
Account ID
Employe Resp - Last Name
Marketing Attribute
Contact - Last Name
Role Config Key: ZGL_AB_BM
Component Name: BP_HEAD_SEARCH
Component Usage: Search
Object Type: <DEFAULT>
Object Subtype: <DEFAULT>
In the selected search criteria both the Displayed and Use in Central Search columns have been checked.
When I go to test my changes, the 5 search criteria above are shown in the drop down boxes in the work center page but the drop down context menu underneath My Saved Searches continues to show the standard SAP criteria. It does not seem to implement the config changes I made.
Am I missing something?
Regards
Declan

I have now got this working.
The central search will work with SAP note 1293695: Central Search Menu - Use Configuration of UI Object Type implemented and with the following config attributes:
Role Config Key: <Role Config Key>
Component Usage: <DEFAULT>
UI Object type: <DEFAULT>
Object Subtype:<DEFAULT>
Also worth mentioning is that the search objects offered in the central search menu is cached in a server cookie by role and language. By default it expires after an hour and the next user who starts the application after this rebuilds the cache - which may take usually 30 seconds up to a minute for a particular user and a business role.
As a consequence customizing changes related to the central search are not visible right away. The cache can be invalidated manually via method CL_CRM_CENTRAL_SEARCH=>CLEAR_CACHE using the SE24 and its Test-Button. Alternatively you may set the user parameter 'CRM_CENTRAL_SEARCH' to 'REBUILD_MENU': In this case the menu is rebuilt with each application start for the corresponding user and the business role used.
Hope this helps other users.
Cheers

Why are my 2012 Calendar Events Not Showing?

3 of my iPads are no longer showing events from 2012, my 1st generation iPad IS showing them. They also show up on my desktop computers. Why?
And how do I get them back? (My guess is to delete them all and then select to get them from the iCloud again.)

Guess I should have looked further for the answer first:
https://discussions.apple.com/message/18949093?searchText=2012%20Calendar%20Even ts%20mis#18949093
Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendars, scroll down to the Calendars section and change the sync option to something other than 'Events 1 month back'.
