Why does Indesign say I have missing fonts even though they are in my packaged document?

I use CS4 on my pc at work, and always package my files, as I have always done on my mac at home, to keep the links and fonts together so that when I send someone a folder, all of the fonts and images work. For some reason, the packaged graphic designs (created on a mac) that are being sent to us from our graphic designer, all of my fonts are lost - even after having purchased the main one that we use - Gotham - to prevent this from happening. This also occurs with any designs that I package and send out to others in our office. I always have to relink the Gotham fonts, and I cannot retrieve the formatting for the fonts that we don't have, even though they are packaged.
We are considering purchasing a mac for me to use in the office, but I'd like to make sure that it is not user error before we proceed.
Any ideas would be wonderful. I never had this problem with my mac at home with packaging, and it has me confused and frustrated at work.
Thanks!

Since CS6 is the current release, upgrading to CS5 is a near impossibility, and EVERYONE will need to upgrade in lockstep or you'll be worse off than you are now with users of your newer version creating files that cannot be opened by users of CS4 (and your CS4 packages won't automatically install the fonts in the documents in the later versions without manually changing the names of the packaged fonts folders).
As far as font formats, if you are going to collaborate cross-platform, the font of choice is OpenType, which is 100% cross-platform compatible, and second choice is Windows TrueType which also can be installed on Mac OS X (so, essentially, also cross-platform). Last choice would be to use Windows Type1 which can be installed in the private InDesign Fonts folder in the Mac applications folder and will work in ID, but nowhere else. Any of these would allow everyone to use the same fonts, presuming you all purchase the same versions. Purchasing Windows versions and Mac versions of the same font usually works, but there may be little surprises, and you probbly don't want that.

Help! CC has been withdrawn by Adobe saying I have not paid even though they have taken the money fr

Help! CC has been withdrawn by Adobe saying I have not paid even though they have taken the money from my account. Why?

Thanks. I do not think that the phone is stolen as I have been able to get it unlocked and surely the phone would be repoted stolen and blocked. What I do not ubderstand is that I thought icoud was just somewhere to back up your data instead of saving it to your computer if that is the case why is it stopping the actual hone from loading the previous owner rest it to factory settings before selling it but refused to get it unlocked. The phone would work with a Vodaphne sim as I understand it althought I did not try before i gave it to a shop to unlock. surely they would have knon before unlocking that there was a problem with icloud and that they woyld not be able to do it. The phone shop are insisting tgat I pay £40.00 for te unlck which they say is done or tey will not et me have the phone back does what they are saying seem right and is it reasonablefor them to expect me to ay for a dud phone??

Apps have install option even though they are already installed!

I'm talking about just the iLife Apps. I erased/installed OS X 10.8 on my mac mini and instead of using the app store to download the 3 iLife apps, I used my old iLife DVD so I can install iDVD (which I still use). Any tips on how to get rid of this annoying problem and have GarageBand, iMove and iPhoto show as update instead of install. It's like it doesn't see they are already installed!
Any help appreciated.

Getting rid ot that irksome number.
You could try reindexing your HD. The MAS uses the Spotlight indexing in determining what apps need updating. Go to Systems Preferences / Spotlight/ Privacy; add your Hdd to the list then remove it from that list. Spotlight will then reindex your HD.

Why did my playlists dissapear from my iPhone, even though they are still on my iTunes?

I went into my iPhone music app today (on my 4s), and I noticed all my playlists were gone. All my music could still be found under Songs/Artists, just my playlists were missing. I went home and noticed they were all on my iTunes still though.
I use iTunes match, so I turned it off on both iTunes and iPhone, then turned back on, but still playlists were gone. I haven't done anything with iTunes or my phone recently, so I am not sure what has happened. The only thing I have done was hook up an apple TV the other day...is that what did it?
Anyways, I plugged my phone in, turned off Match, and synced. Playlists are there now. Turn on iTunes Match, and they dissapear again.
What's going on? All the songs in my playlists are uploaded or matched in the could.
Thanks,
Andrew

Do you have gfxCardStatus installed? Is your monitor set to "Integrated" or "Discrete". You want it set to Discrete to drive the external HDMI display.
Try resetting the PRAM and SMC
<About NVRAM and PRAM>
<Intel-based Macs: Resetting the System Management Controller (SMC)>
Are you sure you have a good miniDisplayPort to HDMI cable?
Do you have another HDMI display you can test against (your neighbor's HDMI capable TV).
Do you have friend that can test the cable using their Mac and maybe their TV or a monitor that has HDMI input.

Why does itunes say i have the latest version 4.2.1 (8c148) for my 3rd gen iPod touch when it should be iOS 5?

why does itunes say i have the latest version 4.2.1 (8c148) for my 3rd gen iPod touch when it should be iOS 5?

Be sure it is really a 3rd gen. Some people with 2nd gens were told they were 3rd gens. Identifying iPod models or Look up specs by Serial Number. If it is a 2nd gen, then you can't upgrade.
IF IT REALLY IS A THIRD GEN iPod Touch, then you first need to upgrade to iTunes 10.5 in order to download iOS 5 because older versions of iTunes don't support and can't sync with iOS 5.

I made a movie in iMovie then deleted the clips in it. I have reimported the clips in an event with the same name as previously and some clips in the movie are still saying source slip missing even though they are there. What can I do?

I made a movie in iMovie then deleted the clips in it. I have reimported the clips in an event with the same name as previously and some clips in the movie are still saying source slip missing even though they are there. Some clips are fine in the movie, but most are just black and when I hover over them, it says source clip missing. How to I fix this? Thank You

I did that too, then I did a migration assistant to a new Mac and ALL of my movies have Source Clip Missing now, even though the original clips are still in the iPhoto Videos. I can stand to re edit one or two projects, but not ALL.

Why does iPhoto keep asking me to confirm faces after they are already confirmed?

Why does iPhoto keep asking me to confirm faces after they are already confirmed?
Once it searches for photos containing (insert name) and says "(insert name) maybe found in 1,750 photos". I click to confirm the said person and it highlights the photos already found in that persons "folder", which already contains 662 photos AND it does not show any of the unconfirmed photos. However, it told me that it found 1,750 photos....where are the missing unconfirmed pictures for me to tag? I have already rebuilt my thumbnails (which already took 3 days to do as I have MANY photos).

How do I install purchased apps on ipad2? It says I have purchased the apps but they are not installed.

I have just purchased an ipad2 and purchased 2 apps. This is my first ipad. The ipad says I have purchased these apps but they are not installed. I don't know how to install them. Also I can only see them if I go to either the app store or the game center and click on purchased. I would like them to show up on screen that shows when I open the ipad but maybe that only happens when they are installed?

Did you purchase them directly on the iPad or on your computer's iTunes ? If on your iPad in the App Store app then have you checked to see if they are on a different homescreen by swiping the homescreen to the left ? If they are on a different screen, and there are spaces on the first homescreen then you can move them :
Touch and hold any icon for a couple of seconds until the icons jiggle .
Arrange the icons by dragging them (don't drag too quickly). You can't leave gaps between icons on a page
to move them to a different screen drag them (not too quickly) and then hold them so that they are overhanging the edge of the screen - after a couple of seconds or so the display should change to the next/previous screen (depending on which edge you are holding it) and you can then place the icon.
Press the Home button to save your arrangement.
If you downloaded them on your computer then you can either connect your iPad to your computer and sync them across, or go into the App Store app on the iPad and re-download them via the Purchased tab (http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2519)
You can download a copy of the iPad manual from here http://support.apple.com/manuals/#ipad

Why users are not able to see certain printers even though they are in the Airgroup server table

Q: Why users are not able to see only certain printers even though they are in the Airgroup server table ?
A: In certain scenarios we may notice printers come up under the server /cache entries on the controller.
However when an airgroup user does search for printer, they may not see all the printers, certain printers may be not visible .
This is because the service IDs sent by the user in the MDNS query are not broadcast by these printers
In the below capture the Ipad sends query for service id "_universal_sub_ipp_tcplocal" and "_universal_sub_ipps_tcplocal" and hence the controller will
respond with the printers that broadcasts these service ids.

In order to learn other printers we may need to use specific app provided by printer vendor on the client or configure the printers to send these service IDs.

The net 451 issues made it not work after a while but it affected the entire RWW site not just remote access:

Why is it that some songs get listed on their own even though they are part of an album?

Why is it that some songs get listed on their own even though they are part of an album? They are always songs that I had on my computer not imported from a cd using iTunes. I have verified that all the info is correct and matches the other songs in the album. Sometimes I can check the "compilation" box on all the songs in the album and that will put them in order and in the same listing. I'm pulling my hair out trying to figure this out.

Good One CL.
What I did in this case is select all the songs in the album and select Get Info and see if Album Artist and Album and Sort Artist and Sort Album Artist and Sort Album are the same.
