Why Have Adobe Open Type Fonts Quit Working On Windows 7 Pro 64-bit
Jan 7, 2013
Up until a couple of weeks ago all of my Adobe Open Type fonts worked fine. Now I a getting a atmlib.dll error. Says it is not designed to work on Windows. Seems to have happened after a Win 7 update.
I have had this dell pc for a year. I had a ton of opentype fonts installed on here as I am a graphic designer. All of a sudden I notice none of my OTF files are in my photoshop list..I checked the windows/fonts folder and not there either. I try installing new OTF files and it says "not a valid font file" Here is the kicker..I converted my OTF files to Truetype and when I install them windows says its already installed, but you look at the list and nothing there. I have tried everything, read all the forums..here is what I have done I am logged on as admin. I removed my kids account so there is only one account (admin account)I updated my graphics card (read that can be an issue)I have changed the UAC to never notify When I click on the font properties there is NO box that says unblock (read that on this site)I sent the file to a friend, they installed fine, so its not a corrupt file.

I am suppose to have over 3,000 fonts on my PC but according to the Control Panel/Font I only have a little over 1600. I thought I was losing massive amount of fonts but found that all of a sudden the fonts are being placed into "Font Family Folders" and when I go into Adobe Illustrator the fonts are not found and they are unusable but I can see them in the Font Manager that I have on my desktop. How can I get them out of that "Font Family Folders"? It also seems like my computer is getting slower and slower. Uninstalled and reinstalled Illustrator CS5 but honestly didn't think it had anything to do with the program.
windows 7 Laptop had sound working and a few days later lady calls me and said it don't work now, don't no what they did, speaker has red x and can't get anysound, only has headset plugins for bluetooth say you can also plug in powered speakers into one but that didn't work either, keeps saying everything is unplugged when nothing should have to be plugged in any way.
I have a gateway model md2614u that use to have vista. After installing windows 7 my web cam quit working. However it does work when I use skype. The tool bar does not come up when I try to start the web cam program like it should.
I used to run a nature sound file in Media Player, to help me sleep, with Task Scheduler set to wake me up with an online radio program. First task stops, "wakeup" task starts immediately after; worked great for almost a year.Suddenly, doesn't work. Running task doesn't stop, and either wakeup task never starts, or, if it does, it runs as some sort of "ghost" instance: no window showing in the Taskbar, nothing showing in Task Manager (neither as application or as process). I have to restart the whole computer to get it to stop!Checked all the settings in Task Scheduler, tried drawing up new tasks; no change.Too bad I bought this PC with Windows 7 preinstalled--no disks to rebuild from.
You know the little preview you get when you hover over an icon on the taskbar? Well mine stopped working for some reason. I don't see anything obvious where you right click and go to properties, and I don't really know where else to look. Could a virus cause this? I ran a scan with avast! and came up with nothing.edit: also, I think the problem may have started after using this screensaver [URL]
I have windows 7, and i have installed adobe. But for some reason i cannot open PDF documents. I have uninstalled adobe once then re-installed it but it still does not open them.
I am trying to load battlefield bad company 2, sims, dvd's, and cd's on my computer, but when I go to My Computer and double click the dvdrw's, windows says it needs to format the disk.
if I press format, it has an error, if I dont, it also has an error.
I have installed 3 dvdrws that I have tested and had working in another computer, and the same goes for each one.
When I insert a disk, the mouse cursor shows the little CD right by it, but nothing happens after it blinks a few times.
Bios recognizes each dvdrw drive, they will boot windows 7 disk before loading windows even, disk management shows each one is working good.
I got one dvd to read through a third party program called dvd decrypter. I didn't go as far as to see if it would copy to the hdd, but it showed all the files.
I used another third party software to analyze the sims2 disk to see if it could copy (i didnt have the full version so I couldnt copy it onto the hdd) but it did show the files as well.
I cannot see any music disks, cdrws disks, dvd's, etc in itunes or windows media player.
Can anyone figure this out? Operating Windows 7 (64 bit). Adobe Flash Player was working fine couple of days ago; after a Windows update, it no longer works. Tried to reinstall Adobe Flash 11, goes through installation process, completes it, brings up box that says "you are now using Adobe Flash Player 11." However, I can't watch videos.
I have windows 7 IE9. I am unable to see graphics on some web sites. Other sites have areas of text missing. I have upgraded abode and jave. If I have a couple tabs open, it will show on when I look at the tab but I click to open the site and it is blank again.
I have windows 7 and i am trying to open pdf files from an external cd via adobe. It keeps telling me the files are unsupported. Do I have to change something in my computer so I can read pdf's?

After downloading new version of Adobe Reader, all of my programs try to open in Adobe. System won't let me do restore and I can't open programs to include my anti-virus program.
I'm trying to open a pvs file in Adobe Reader and when I try I get the file could not open because it's not a supported file type or the file has been damaged. When I try to open in another program (Microsoft Word) I get a file conversion table that I can't make out one way or the other.
I used to be able to open replays of a certain game (Warcraft 3) just by simply double clicking on them. I reinstalled Windows 7 2weeks ago, along with the game. Now when I double click them, it doesnt know what program to use --> I go through the standard "open with" and find my war3.exe. Now when I go to double click the replay file, it openes warcraft3 not the replay itself (like it used to, and like how I want it).
Ive done alot of digging around and trying to find how to fix it, but Im still unable to fix this. What I've found out that I basically need the replay files (.w3g) to open in E:Program filesWarcraft IIIwar3.exe -loadfile "%1" The problem is, that with windows7 I am unable to find the place where I can insert this, all I was able to find was ways for XP/Vista but they are different from Windows 7.
I have windows 7. I'm getting odd behaviour from my machine. I can only type in search boxes intermittently, other times when I press a letter the shortcut droplist comes on---"F" is find and so on. Only light on my keyboard is Num Lock, so I don't think it's a keyboard issue.When I left click shortcut to open IE(or any program), I get the, "do you want this program to make changes..." message, or I get the shortcut properties box, and if I move a shortcut, it makes a copy---"Computer 2."

Please contact your system administrator to resolve this problem. Do you wish to remove encryption and try again?
