FontBook preview-> see the gray police

I try to use fontbook to verify license information accompanying fonts installed on my Macbook Pro retina (early 2013).  In the Preview menu, I see "display information of the police", but it is grayed... even though I have the police in question highlighted.  What I am doing wrong?

Please read this message before doing anything.

This procedure is a diagnostic test. It is unlikely to solve your problem. Don't be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.

The test is intended to determine if the problem is caused by a third-party software that loads automatically at startup or logon, by a device, by a police conflict or corruption of system files or some system caches.

Disconnect all devices wired except those required to test and remove all the expansion cards from secondary market, as appropriate. Start in safe mode and log on to the account of the problem.

Note: If FileVault is enabled in OS X 10.9 or an earlier version, or if a firmware password is defined, or if the boot volume is a software RAID, you can not do this. Ask for additional instructions.

Safe mode is much slower to boot and run as normal, with limited graphics performance, and some things work at all, including an audio output and a Wi - Fi connection on some models. The next normal boot can also be a bit slow. Third-party fonts will be load in safe mode.

The login screen is displayed even if you usually connect automatically. You need your password to log on. If you have forgotten the password, you will have to reset it before you begin.

Test in safe mode. Same problem?

After testing, restart as usual (not in safe mode) and make sure you always have the problem. View the results of the test.

  • El Capitan does not start after a freeze and a forced, bonded stop on the gray screen

    Hi all

    I have a MacBook Pro 17 "late 2011, 2.4 Ghz, 16 GB RAM with OS X El Capitan installed, the latest version with all the updates." A year ago, I've had my Toshiba HDD replaced by Samsung SSD 250 GB SATA III 850 EVO and the Toshiba disk has been moved to CD using LMP disk Doubler Bay, at the same time, I had my RAM went from 8 GB to 16 GB of RAM, I have now. The OS X El Capitan is installed on the SSD. In this configuration, everything worked well, with absolutely no problem whatsoever. Sometimes, I ran disk utility to check both of my hard drives and no problem.

    Unfortunately yesterday, strange things started going. First of all, I noticed some unusual glitches when you browse the internet with Safari. I'll try to describe the best I can because they lasted about 2 seconds, so I don't recall. In any case, all of a sudden, as if half right of my screen has shifted in the middle of the screen and it was wrong and image around was all damaged or distorted but legible. He'll be back to normal when I switched between applications or revealed the office displays the windows of all running applications.

    It was similar to this (below) but much larger.

    Then, I continued my work as if nothing had happened, when all of a sudden my mouse pointer disappeared and the system froze completely. It was just totally frozen, the time was not moving and the computer did not react somehow to the keys I pressed. Unable to do anything, I had to press and hold the power button to turn off the computer. After starting it again once I hear the ringtone, I see the gray Apple logo and the loading bar. When the loading bar reaches about 40%, a coloured horizontal line appears (see photo below), then it subsides quickly followed by a black screen, which is quickly followed by a blank grey screen with no Apple logo or the bar loading, just a gray screen Uni, where I'm stuck. The computer turns off by itself after about 15-30 minutes if I leave it like that on the gray black screen.

    The coloured horizontal line:

    I CAN only boot single user mode, Apple Hardware Test mode, the boot (by holding the ALT/OPTION key) Manager and verbose mode. Also, I can start on the Internet recovery mode but once the download is complete, it is stuck on the gray screen (gray screen with the Apple logo WITHOUT horizontal line-online quick clear-online stuck on the gray screen black screen)

    After a lot of googling and reading, that's what I've tried so far:

    However, during my fight, I could successfully arrives at the login screen, log in and use my MacBook for some time, about a half hour before the same thing happens, the mouse disappears and the system to freeze completely. I remember that both times where I was able to get to the login screen, it was after I had been in single user mode and typed 'Quit' or 'reboot'.

    The above colorful horizontal line also appears in the single-user mode when I type "exit" AND I am UNABLE to get to the login screen later (photo below). It just goes to the gray white screen. Those two times when I was able to connect to exit single-user mode, the horizontal line colored is NOT appear in single-user mode.

    When I m showing police area I do not see the type fonts? Why? or why I can do to fix this?

    Mijail,

    I think that it can fix:

    Open system preferences and go to accessibility. Then select display in the source on the left side list, then check the box transparency reduced.

    It was introduced in this #15 post by TheUlser:

    https://forums.Adobe.com/message/6854594#6854594

    It has been described on this page from Adobe:

    http://capitalmacservice.com/font-preview-working-Illustrator-CS-5-Yosemite-fix/

    It may also depend on the monitor, as shown in the message #29 by Loncar in the same thread.

    Of course, this also affects other things so there can be a downside to it, of course, the influences of transparency reduced the appearance of other things, but so far nobody complained disadvantages.

  • FAQ (29): why the "See the last SoftPaqs" button grayed out?

    When I'm in the mode 'All products' or "Building Driver Pack", "Show the last SoftPaqs" button is gray. How to enable this feature for SDM will show me the latest versions of the SoftPaqs for my selected models?

    In the modes of 'Building Driver Pack' and 'All products', you have the ability to check more than one model. Unfortunately, showing the latest version of a SoftPaq for more than one model is problematic because the same version of a SoftPaq maybe not the one which is responsible for all the models selected that makes the application unnecessary and ambiguous.

    Just think about it for a second. If we had a model (let's call ModelA) 5 years ago and another model who is only 1 year old (let's call ModelB) selected in SDM. Keep in mind that computer models of different years will probably have material differences that require different hardware drivers. Also note that this could be the case even if the models were of the same year. Furthermore, models most recent software qualification only goes back a number of years. It could very well be that the software can run on older models, but if HP do not qualify and test it, HP will not associate the new version of the SoftPaqs with older models.

    So, what does the request: "Show me the latest versions of SoftPaq for some models ModelA and ModelB" really means? We asked this exact question to various people and two completely DIFFERENT responses are returned. The answer seems to be influenced by the different needs of the Organization to which the respondents belonged to.

    For some, the answer was: ' show me the most recent SoftPaq who qualified for BOTH models. This is known as a query "AND". This query would only show what are the common SoftPaqs between ModelA and ModelB, but would show NO SoftPaqs, who were qualified for only one and not the other.  With this query, most of models that are selected, the lower number of SoftPaqs appears.

    But for other respondents, the answer was ' show me the lastest Softpaq is qualififed for EITHER model; which is a query "GOLD". This query would show all the SoftPaqs associated with each model. But it is not clear if each SoftPaq was qualified for ModelA, ModelB or for both. This request seems to be too broad, because the models have been selected, more likely it is that a SoftPaq would appear even if she wasn't qualified for a model on the list only.

    So, to illustrate this, imagine the following scenarios...

    Scenario 1

    We have three SoftPaqs. SoftPaq1 qualified for the ModelA and ModelB, SoftPaq2 is ONLY responsible for ModelA and SoftPaq3 is ONLY responsible for ModelB. What SoftPaqs should appear as the "last SoftPaq ModelA and ModelB"?

    Answer:

    Query AND: SoftPaq1 because it is "the latest version of a SoftPaq who qualified for BOTH models.

    GOLDEN request: SoftPaq2 and SoftPaq3 because everyone is "the latest version of a SoftPaq for at least one model.

    Scenario 2

    What happens if the SoftPaq3 did not exist?

    Answer:

    Query ANDoftPaq1 because it is "the latest version of a SoftPaq who qualified for BOTH models.

    OR queryoftPaq1 and SoftPaq2 because everyone is "the latest version of a SoftPaq for at least one model.

    Scenario 3

    What happens if the SoftPaq1 did not exist?

    Answer:

    AND query: No. SoftPaq is qualified for BOTH models

    GOLDEN request: SoftPaq2 and SoftPaq3 because everyone is "the latest version of a SoftPaq for at least one model.

    Add more models and SoftPaqs and results gets confusing real fast. Therefore, to avoid confusion, it was decided that the "View the last SoftPaqs" button would be disabled if more than one model was chosen because it is the only case where "See the last SoftPaqs" is not ambiguous. Thus, the "View the last SoftPaqs" button is available, if only a model (and OS and language) are selected.

    If you have several patterns that you manage, and you want to use the button "See the last SoftPaqs", please enjoy SDM configurations and save a configuration for each model. For more information on SDM configurations, please see using SDM.

  • When I scroll during discussions on discussion forums, I can see is more a preview of the text - just recently he started to arrive.

    Until recently, I could get a preview of the text in a message board thread by scrolling on the thread binding. Earlier, this feature has stopped working. Now when I run the wire, a small box appears under the cursor, but no text.

    Just a reminder:

    I see tooltips in the disboards link you gave with Fx 3.6.12 under XP.

    You don't see them with the same versions.

    Many people say that this problem can be caused by the Google toolbar.

    I don't have Google toolbar.

    You do.

    But if you disable the Google toolbar you still see the problem.

    I googled a bit and can't find any other because of this. Now, my suggestion is to uninstall the Google toolbar and see if the problem goes away. If that doesn't work try safe mode as described here:

  • 2 problems: cannot see the preview of the images in my files and can not see the name of my files in some of the views.

    Yesterday, 18:46

    Some time ago, when I went to my files using Windows Vista, I could already see the preview of the images in my folder. But now, all I see is either a glass with brushes (the MS Paint logo) for JPG images and a background painted with paint brushes on my BMP images. So, how to get back to see previews in my folder?

    I also have another problem: in a few other cases, I see that the name of the program or file when I have the view defined as tiles, details or list. But when I choose one of the views icon (or small icons, medium icons, large icons and Extra large icons) I don't see the name of the program or file.

    How can I solve these 2 problems?

    I think I can answer the first question. I'll check back for an answer to your 2nd question.

    -It used to work and for some reason, now it does not work

    Greetings, d_chiuch1104,

    There is one thing that I know that you need to check that COULD be your problem.  Open Control Panel (in Classic view) and click Folder Options (or, in Control Panel, click on appearance and personalization and then Folder Options).

    Open the view tab and make sure that "Always show icons, never thumbnails" is NOT checked.

    It would be good to hear from you as to whether that was the problem!

  • Movie Maker will not see a preview of the video, but plays sound

    Hello

    I know this question has been answered before, but I tried the suggested solutions and it doesn't seem to work. I used the MicrosoftFixIt tool to find any bad codecs and none came. I clicked on one of the links to download an older version of NVIDIA, as suggested, but I'll be honest, I have no idea what I'm doing.

    All I want to do is to edit videos on Movie Maker, but I can't because I don't see what I'm doing. Even if I just put a picture, nothing is displayed in the Preview on the left area!

    When I export the video she plays very well because I have strung together some pictures and a few videos with a mp3 file on the top and everything I played correctly once it had been exported.
    I use my laptop which is a HP Pavilion dm4, my OS is Windows 7 Home Premium, and I tried to update Movie Maker on the Windows website.
    I need help. Thank you for your time, you're probably sick of answering these questions, but I searched your forums carefully and nothing has worked.

    I look forward to your reply.

    Thank you for your help but I tried to restore my device driver, but unfortunately I have not all previous versions to restore. I have also tried to lower my hardware acceleration, despite having allowed me to completed the first instructions little change 16 bits etc, I could not then lower acceleration because the laptop just wouldn't let me.

    Thank you for your quick response, but unfortunately, my laptop still stubbornly useless.

    =======================================
    Depending on your answer I do not know what else to think.
    Although you might find your computer mfg site for
    earlier video drivers.

    Maybe install a previous version of Movie Maker
    worth to try:

    There is a version of Vista Movie Maker 6.0 which will be
    run on perhaps Windows 7 or 8... You can use it to
    new projects until you find the fix for MM12.

    (FWIW... it's always a good idea to create a system)
    Restore point before installing software or updates)

    Windows Movie Maker 6.0 on Windows installation 7 or 8

    Hi Joas,

    Sony A7R II files are not supported in Lightroom 5.

    You need at least version 6.1.1 or CC2015.1.1 to access these files: supported by Adobe Camera Raw devices

    You can upgrade your program of Lightroom or Adobe DNG Converter allows you to convert raw files to DNG and import them into Lightroom.
