I will say type some text and the Normal setting is Times New

In the window above the text window it may SAY its Arial but I  
could have Symbol, or other unexpected stuff.




Only happens in pre-existing doc that I have received from  
elsewhere, never a de novo fresh document.


What is going on here? Do I have to open the received doc and  
save as TXT then start over with re-formating and editing?   Some  
of these docs I have to work with have unexpectedly large sizes.


Just a guess, but try deleting the file Office Font Cache from your  
~/Library/Preferences/Microsoft folder, after first quitting any open  
Office applications, then re-launch Word.


Whether or not this is the correct file I'm not sure, but there's no  
doubt there's a corrupt settings file somewhere. If the above doesn't  
have any effect, try logging into a different account (create a new  
one if you don't already have another one) and see if the problem  
persists. A sort by date in the ~/Library/Preferences/Microsoft  
folder for that account will show what file are potentially involved.

Download Problems with Safari

2006-05-26 Thread Kelly Duffy

Hi everyone,

I'm having some problems downloading with Safari. (I think anyway,
otherwise the problem is with something else). I think my downloads
are being cut off after they reach just over 1mb. I've been trying to
download Stuffit Expander, and no matter which download link I try it
just stops partway through and the file won't work. I tried a
different version of Stuffit as well with the same problem. I had some
other downloading problems before, which may or may not be related.

Alternatively the problem could be wth the Stuffit website.

I've just installed Tiger (10.4.3) and any advice would be great, or
alternate Unstuffing programmes, I have a .sit file I need to open.

Cheers,
Kelly

[For Sale] Final Cut Pro 2.0

2006-05-26 Thread Dudley Gager

G'day all

Could be used to upgrade to FC Studio 5.1. Upgrade price from FC Pro  
1/2/3 according to Apple website is A$999 which is whole lot better  
than the A$1899 full price.


I am after FC Express HD 3.5 which will set me back A$429, so any  
offer north of A$429 considered.


Or if you can offer an old copy of FCE 1/2/3 + $139 (the FCE upgrade  
price) or more, that will get me to FCE HD 3.5 via the upgrade route.


TIA

Dudley Gager
