Why does the @font-face work in a Private Tab, but not in a normal Tab?

I consistently find that the @font-face does not work in Firefox unless I use a Private Tab, but I prefer to use a regular Tab so that I can keep track of what pages I have visited. In a Private Tab the Android app displays Hebrew with cantillation marks as nicely as Windows does using the very same font. This is probably an unintended bug, as I cannot imagine why you would want Private Tabs to work better than the regular ones. The css function in question is:
@font-face {
font-family: 'Shlomo LB';
src: url('../ShlomoLightBold.ttf') format('truetype');
font-weight: normal;
font-style: normal;
}

Hello,
Thank you for bringing this up. There is an open issue in Bugzilla - [https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=769194 src:local() @font-face rules doesn't work on Android]. But in this case you are mentioning a src:url, so I don't know if they are related.
Also, can you please confirm if you are using NoScript or any other plugin on your browser and if there are settings that differ for the normal tabs vs. private tabs (noscript has an option to block @font-face).
Would it be possible for you to create a sample for testing this?
Thank you

Why does my macbook air work when connected to HDMI but not my iMac

Hi. I have an HDTV, an HDMI cord, and a HDMI -> thundebolt adapter. I plug this in to my 2013 MBA and it works fine, but when I plug it into my iMac, nothing happens.
Why?
Do I need a DVI -> HDMI adapter (I already have one for my dual monitor, so it would only be 5$ for the adapter.
Thanks for the help .

Why does the clone stamp work when I go from a darker colour to a lighter colour but not the other way around. How can I lighten up a dark area? Lasso tool takes from the wrong area too.

Why do you use the Blend Modes Lighter and Darker at all in this case and not simply Normal?
And what kept you from posting a screenshot?
I borrowed the image below for an HDR workshop I ran at the 2010 PSNZ National Convention, to demonstrate a method of removing halos. You'll remember that halos were a serious problem with early HDR, and while the halos in this image were caused by over sharpening, they are perfect for demonstrating this technique.
It relies on the fact that halos so often tend to put a lighter tone between the two areas where sharpening is being applied. Whether that is the sky abutting a dark line of hills, or the rock and little tower as in this image. I've uploaded it at the size it was supplied to me at (about 2700 pixels wide). So
Click to open the full image, right click and copy, and paste into Photoshop.
Select the clone tool, and set its blend mode to Darken.
Try to sample on a line horizontal to where you want to clone, to give the best tonal match, and start cloning.
Because the sky is darker than the halo, it overwrites it. But the rock is darker than the sky, so it has no affect.
It works even better if you clone on a new layer also set to Darken. No masking, just Photoshop blend mode magic.
You can also fix the little tower. Use a great big brush — just remember to sample horizontal to match the horizon.
Back then I was using the same trick with CAs after forgetting to fix them in ACR, and having done too much work to start again after spotting the problem.

Why does the iphone 4 work only intermittently with the Sony HCB150 speakerphone?

Why does the iphone 4 work only intermittently with the Sony HCB150 speakerphone?

Basic troubleshooting from the User's Guide is reset, restart, restore (first from backup then as new). Try each of these in order until the issue is resolved.
If the issue persists, take the device to Apple for further assistance.

The autofill feature worked on my iPad 2, but not on the New iPad. Anyone know why?

The autofill feature worked on my iPad 2, but not on the New iPad. Anyone know why?

Go to Settings>Safari>Auto Fill>On .... Names and Passwords>On .... Use Contact Info>On. Make sure that your contact information is correct.
Then quit Settings and Safari completely and restart the iPad.
Go to the home screen first by tapping the home button. Quit/close open apps by double tapping the home button and the task bar will appear with all of you recent/open apps displayed at the bottom. Tap and hold down on any app icon until it begins to wiggle. Tap the minus sign in the upper left corner to close the apps. Restart the iPad. Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button.
See if that helps.

Why does CSS' "@font-face" not work in FF8.0?

I am using embedded fonts via CSS' @font-face, which works perfectly in IE9, Safari 5.1.1 and Opera 11.52. However it does not work in FF8.0 (or Chrome 15.0.874.121) and falls back to Verdana.
Here is my CSS:
body,td,th {
font-family: DragonwyckFont, Verdana, Geneva, sans-serif;
@font-face {
font-family: "DragonwyckFont";
src: url("../fonts/Dragonwyck_Normal.eot");
src: url("../fonts/Dragonwyck_Normal.eot?#iefix") format('embedded-opentype'),
url("../fonts/Dragonwyck_Normal.ttf") format('truetype');
This is being tested on a W7 box, using localhost: on IIS.
Any help or advice would be much appreciated.
Thankyou in advance.

Hi cor-el,
Thanks for your very quick reply, unfortunately the solutions you offered have been unsuccessful.
I did as you suggested (including deleting the relative path and placing the fonts in the same directory as the CSS) and followed all the advice given in the references you made.
I am not going across domains so Access Control Headers are not required.
Bizarrely, the link from the demo (https://developer.mozilla.org/en/CSS/@font-face) works perfectly but, when I replicate it using the full path to Dragonwyck_Normal.ttf, it doesn't.
My little brain is starting to fry and I must be doing something completely daft but, with just half a dozen lines of code, I fail to see how it could be more simple!
CSS:
body,td,th { font-family: "Dragonwyck", serif; }
@font-face {
font-family: "Dragonwyck";
src: url("Dragonwyck_Normal.ttf");
Any ideas?
Regards,
Chaindrive.

Why does the RX3870-T2D512E-OC detect as 3800 series and not 3870?

I am wondering why does my video card detect as a 3800 series and not specifically the HD 3870? I heard this was fixed with a bios update with Sapphire does MSI need to do the same thing with their card?

Has been for all the ATI Catalyst drivers.. what other driver is there? The MSI Drivers are always so far behind so I don't use them of course.

I had the same issue when I had created Flash Paper items. I had found the a solution on my opinion.
http://www.eolsoft.com/freeware/flash_movie_player/
you actually need a Flash Movie Player and not Flash Player. they are different. the only issue is that Adobe does not support this anymore.
so what I did is placed the EXE file of Flash Movie Player found on the link above on my server, made a note to my viewers that Flash Movie Player is required to view the documents.
I found this solutlion when my boss asked why he could not view any of the Flash Paper Documents

Why does the Wi-Fi work on my iPod and not my Macbook?

The router is an arms length away and my Ipod#4 works great. but I cannot get my Macbook to get connected. Whats up?

Does the iPod connect to other networks?
Does the iPod see the network?
Any error messages?
Do other devices now connect?
Did the iPod connect before?
Try the following to rule out a software problem:
- Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Power off and then back on the router
- Reset network settings: Settings>General>Reset>Reset Network Settings
- iOS: Troubleshooting Wi-Fi networks and connections
- Wi-Fi: Unable to connect to an 802.11n Wi-Fi network
- iOS: Recommended settings for Wi-Fi routers and access points
- Restore from backup. See:
iOS: How to back up
- Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.
If still problem make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store since it appears you have a hardware problem.

'Highlight' Character Style -- Why Does the Font Change?

I want to define a style that mimics a highlight marker.
Choose some text, set the background/fill to yellow.
Highlight filled words, then choose 'Define Style From Selection..."
Then, in the More... selection I deselect every attribute of the character style except for the fill colour. So this should highlight text, but leave every other attribute of the text unchanged -- I think.
But whenever I apply it, the font changes to something I don't recognise -- even though the font is not a part of the character style description.
What am I doing wrong?
TIA

You need to make sure the font is embedded in the PDF. This is optional in some sofware.
If it is not embedded, your local font is used. No such local font exists on the iPad.

Why does the editing feature work at times and not at other times ?

I have paid for the right to edit documents created as PDF's. Now when I sign in and try to edit the documents the program only works once in a while.

Hi Sara,
Yes, the Export PDF subscription is what I am having trouble with.
For example, when I open and Export a file as attached to remove our vendors information and substitute our company info to provide export documentation for
our lumber shipments I am not able to edit the document.
I bought the subscription for this exact purpose to save having to recreate these documents on my own time. This is very time consuming as it must be done by hand
in Excel.
I was able to edit a similar document yesterday but today, no dice ???
Sincerely,
[private information removed]

In iBooks, why does the font change?

If you turn to the next page in iBooks, the font is nice and light, if you switch apps then switch back, the iBooks font is thicker, almost bold. You can take a photo of the pages to prove it's not an illusion. This is ios 7 on a retina ipad.

I should have mentioned - I'm reading a PDF.

Why does the font change when importing to my ipad as a pdf

I have a publisher document with black chancery font which was not on my current computer so I installed the font. It now appears in my document and when I save it as a pdf it seems to be there. BUT when I send it to my iPad the font is not what it should be.
