Big problems with fonts after upgrade to Yosemite

Hello

I upgraded my macbook pro to Yosemite for more than six months and since then, I have serious problems with application of fonts in browsers and many software I use. I googled the problem over and over again and nothing seems to help.

In general, these are the main symptoms of the problem with screenshots:

1 system ads are gibberished, or better yet, appearing with something like that, instead of letters:

2. bold letters does not at all (when I use gmail, for example) or leads to an illegible font change:

3. hyperlinks symbols on Web sites or webmail applications simply appear as empty squares and there is no way of knowing what you click on.

Bottom line: before turning to the last option and the resettlement of Yosemite, if someone could help, I'd be more than grateful.

You probably have a lot of fonts installed garbage. Follow these steps to recover your Mac for only the fonts installed in OS X.

(1) open the book fonts and choose restore fonts Standard menu. All third-party fonts will be moved out of the system and root of the fonts in the library files in a new folder next to each named (deleted) Fonts.

2) click on the desktop so Finder is the name of the app next to the Apple logo in the upper left corner. Hold down the Option key and choose go > library. This will open your user account's library folder. Create a new empty folder on the desktop. Open the folder fonts in your user account. If there is something in it, move them to the new folder on the desktop.

3) restart in Mode safe mode by rebooting and hold down the SHIFT key. When you reach the office (you need to log in Mode without failure), restart normally. Among other things, this erases all the cache files on the account of the user logged in Mode safe mode and resets the database of book of fonts for this account.

(4) clear all remaining the system font cache files. Close all the running applications. From an administrator account, open the Terminal application and enter the following command. You can also copy and paste from here in the Terminal window:

sudo atsutil databases - remove

Terminal will then ask your admin password. When you type, it will not show anything, so make sure you enter it correctly.

This command removes all the font cache files. To the system and the current connected to the user account. After you run the command, close Terminal and immediately restart your Mac.

Now test. With only fonts available provided OS and all data policies implemented cache and other such parameters cleared and reset, fonts should appear correctly in the system.

  • Several problems with photoshop after upgrading to win10

    I've updated to win 10 a week ago and today I experienced several problems with photoshop. The first question is about the quick selection tool. I select and try to choose an area on the picture I want to work on. It performs either one of two things. F1. It won't select anything finally photoshop will crash. 2 when he decided to select something it goes super slow and will switch to the symbol of thought every few seconds.

    second question...

    Because I can't get select quick took the job I'll move the pen tool. I started to select anchor points and ill get maybe 20 points the image then becomes completely black. If I scroll top down I can clearly see the parts of the image, but when I stop scrolling returned to a black square. Later photoshop then crash.  TSF is to face all of a sudden?

    Make sure that your GPU drivers are perfectly up-to-date (directly from the manufacturer) and they are 10 Windows compatible. You can also try a reset preference:

    Win: Press and hold the keys Ctrl + Alt + Shift immediately after the launch of Photoshop starting. A box will appear asking if you want to continue with the reset, select 'yes '. If you don't see this, you're not fast enough... Try again.

  • Problem with WSUS after upgrade of SQL and SCCM

    A few years ago, we implemented SCCM 2012 R2 on a virtual machine running Server 2008 R2 (Enterprise), using 2012 SQL for databases.  We use it for software deployment, updates/patches via WSUS and imagery of the network.  Everything is smooth enough for most, even if we hit a few snags Windows 10 points when that came out.  After you install the patches and updates to our Server 2008 box to make it compatible with Windows 10 content, everything was good again.  A few weeks ago, I decided to update our version of SCCM 1511 and SQL for 2014.  After the two updates, I tested imaging and software deployment, and everything seemed good.  I forgot WSUS, however... and later visited account it was not working properly for these updates.  Unfortunately, I realized after I deleted the VM snapshot, I got to thinking that everything was good (stupid, I know).  After researching and discovering some of the errors were permissions associated with - why would have changed the permissions on folders of SQL and SCCM upgrade I have no idea - those who have since been smoothed.  Now, my mistakes seem to be related SQL more and I hit a dead end with research.  When I opened WSUS and go look at the clocks, he tries to load the history of synchronization, and after a few minutes-error with the following information:

    The WSUS administration console failed to connect to the WSUS server database.

    Verify that SQL server is running on the WSUS server. If the problem persists, try restarting SQL.

    System.Data.SqlClient.SqlException - Timeout expired.  The delay before the end of the operation or the server is not responding.

    I found a few forums that suggest to uninstall WSUS and delete the database, and then reinstall WSUS.  Unfortunately, when I try install fails... giving only an error code and no other explanation of why.  The error is 0 x 80070643, which is supposed to be due to the current user not having the "sysadmin" in SQL.  However, I have tried with several accounts I checked to make you have the sysadmin role in SQL (and are also part of the Administrators group on the server itself)-always get the same error message.

    I would really like to try to find that rather than wasting his time with the construction of a new server and redo our whole SCCM environment... get the client reinstalled on all our machines to synchronize with a new server appears as a huge headache.  Is there anyone else out there who know what would cause this?  Any help would be greatly appreciated!

  • Problems with mail after upgrade

    After the update from El Capitan with macOS Sierra my e-mail program does not stay open longer than 3 seconds. I have an end 2013 27 "iMac 3.5 GHz Intel Core i7 with 32 GB of memory.

    Is there any solution for this or am I the only one having this problem?

    Thank you

    Test in a new user quickly will tell you if the problem is system-wide or if your user folder that contains the problem.

    You can use the guest user or create a new user to test.

    CREATE A NEW USER

    Go to system-> Preferences, create a new user in users and groups.

    Switch to the new user by logging incoming/outgoing or use the fast user switching.

    You can skip connect with an Apple ID, unless you need to test apps to iCloud. Hit continue and then jump.

    By default only the applications Apple will be in the dock in the new user. Go to Applications to open other apps, that you can test.

    You still see the issue?

    If Yes, then the problem is with your core files.

    If not, then the problem is in your user folder.

  • Problems with calls after upgrade of VCS 8.22

    I've recently updated one of my devices VCS to 8.2.2, but I am having some problems.

    The Setup is as follows:

    VCS-C-1: X8.2.2
    VCS-E: 7.2
    VCS-C-2: 7.2

    EX90s: 7.2

    EX90 > VCS-C-1 (8.2.2) > neighbor area > VCS-E (7.2) > Traversal area > VCS-C-2 (7.2)

    Call is SIP all the way.

    Calls fail in both directions (connects but no audio or video).  Was working fine before the upgrade of VCS-C-1 of 7.2 to 8.2.2.

    If I change the adjacent area of VCS-C-1 to the VCS-E uses a profile of "Custom" with "Duo Video Filter" in position "On", it works very well, although this way I can't use presentation properly.  Even if I have introduced interoperability in any part of the path of the call (force a leg to H323), it works, but again, interoperability has its own set of questions.  Finally, if I register at each endpoint to the VCS-E, everything works, it works just not when you browse all three hop calls.

    The VCS-E is controlled by me, so can be improved if necessary, however VCS-C-2 is in another organization, the upgrade is likely to be much more difficult.

    I know that there are changes to the way video Duo works in X 8 - I noticed that it's moved from an overall command of SIP for by area, I guess it has something to do with it.

    Any ideas?

    Please try to put "Sip media encryption" on page traversal area setting to 'best effort' and give it a try

  • Big problem with Windows XP, IE8

    I have a big problem with windows xp. Many things do not work as they had passed him. For example the personal setting are not recalled from session to session. IE 8 does not funtion properly (icons on the desktop are re-arraged, toolbars cannot be deleted or I'm unable to load pages from the internet). Programs do not work, the files will not open. When I look at my hard C disk folders and files are hidden.

    Recently, IE has been upgraded to IE8 and I installed Norton 360 but I don't mean that they caused the problem. However, whenever the Norton scan executes a "error 8 506 421" stands up and says me that I have to uninstall and re install Norton.» But I lost the ADMIN privileges so I am not able to uninstall or go back to a restore point.

    I can't go in safe mode. Pressing F8 takes me to the quick screen C not the windows safe mode screen. I can't go in safe BOOT mode. INI or the other.

    If I switch to another user, everything seems fine but I don't have ADMIN privileges with this user to be able to make changes.

    Is this a problem with norton? IE8? A virus?

    Any thoughts will be greatly appreciated.

    Thanks in advance,

    Lost without a computer

    It sounds like you have a corrupted for your user to administrator user profile.

    You may be able to recover using System Restore to restore to a point in time before your problem.  Based on the F8 key, you bring in a command prompt window, try to start restoring the system to the command prompt by using the following procedure:

    "How to start the System Restore tool by using the option of safe mode with prompt theCommand in Windows XP"

    <>https://support.Microsoft.com/kb/304449/en-us >

    If this does not work, you can still be able to recover by performing a check disk to your command prompt window operation (after that you press the F8 key).  Enter the following command:

    CHKDSK c: /R

    If you are in the Recovery Console, it can simply begin, or you may need to restart before it will start.  Corrupt profiles are most often caused by the Corruption of system files, so a chkdsk operation should be performed little matter how you end up recovery.  Note that this can take a few hours to run.

  • Illustrator CS3 crashes after upgrade to Yosemite

    I just upgraded to Yosemite on my Macbook 2010 pro.  Everything seems to work great except Adobe Illustrator CS3.  The rest of the suite Adobe creative works great - photoshop, Indesign etc but not illustrator.  When I launched the application after the upgrade, I was asked to install a Java Update I did, I raised then Illustrator, he opened the window initialization and looked like it was going to work but it froze and I had to force quit.  Now, it is not passed the window initialization and does not open.  I cleaned the cache of police and I started my mac in safe mode, illustrator works in this mode, but when I start again as usual it still does not work here.  I tried to find that the users preferences file, so I can remove it, but I can't find this file and not really sure if this is what I have to do to get it working anyway!  Unfortunately I do not have installation disks therefore am not able to uninstall and reinstall the Suite.  If anyone can give me help I would be very grateful!  Earlier, I am very frustrated and wish that I had never updated!  Thank you in advance and thank you for taking the time to read my thread.

    I also had problems with Adobe Illustrator CS3 and Yosemite. After the upgrade, I installed Java for OS X 2014-001, as suggested by others. It seemed to work (sometimes), but when I opened Illustrator for the 2nd time it could not open. Illustrator open without crashing, but she has not shown all the menus, if I open a .ai file file is load and display on the screen, but I couldn't click on the window (not responding). This essentially useless Illustrator. I tried the following:

    • Re-Setup
    • Install Java for OS X 2014-001
    • Police of cleaning cache
    • The permissions checking
    • Install other versions of Java (JRE or JDK)

    Nothing seemed to help. Until at last 15 minutes ago I found the solution by chance:

    1. Open System Preferences > Java
    2. Wait for the Java Control Panel to load
    3. Open Adobe Illustrator (while keeping the window open Java Control Panel)

    I hope this will also help others!

  • Question connection with Blast after upgrade to view 6.1.1 ("your office may have a security certificate not approved")

    Hello guys,.

    We are facing a very strange problem with Blast after the upgrade to view 6.1.1. Let me show you the scenario:

    We have two security servers (paired with two servers connection).

    On both servers security (and on the servers of connection), the default self-signed certificate is used.

    Secure Tunnel, PCoIP Secure Gateway and Secure Gateway Blast are activated.

    Users access it from internet via Netscaler which balance the traffic load and present a trusted signed certificate.

    For now I won't go in deeper into the Netscaler configuration, as it was working fine.

    We were on view Horizon 5.2 and everything worked fine! ...

    After the upgrade to view 6.1.1 we are unable to connect using the web browser! We can open a session and select the desktop, but as soon as the connection to the desktop is launched, we receive the following error message:

    "Your Office has been disconnected.

    Try to reconnect to the office...

    Your office can have an untrusted security certificate. Click here to accept the security certificate, then try to connect to your desktop again. »

    error.png

    If we click on the link, we are redirected to something like https://Blast_External_URL:8443/r/F386565D-D068-4AC1-BFD3-3A903CBEB235/certAccept.html , receiving a blank page with the following text:

    "Could not resolve the route of proxy for the request.

    Just before the upgrade, we have been able to use the HTML Protocol! We have does no change at all, so I really think it's related to some changes introduced by the new version of Horizon view, but may not know what is causing the problem.

    No problem connecting with the customer to view Horizon (PCoIP and RDP).

    If in the external URL Blast Secure Gateway, we insert the hostname of the server security instead of the external URL (Netscaler), we are able to connect but of course only from our local network.

    Someone at - it ideas?

    Thank you.

    Hi Calyps0Craig,

    Yes, I found a solution for this. In our case the issue was resolved by changing the configuration of Netscaler.

    In the past, we use SSL offloading and worked all protocols. It seems that with the new version of view SSL offloading does more work.

    Change the Service and virtual server on ports 443 and 8443 for SSL to SSL_BRIDGE solved our problem.

    Hope this will help you.

    Best regards

    Claudio
