Step 1. Install Mac OS X

Programs to open FNS file

Remember to download programs supporting FNS files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.

Step 2. Create association of Mac OS X with FNS files

If the application is or has been freshly installed, but the FNS file still does not use the Mac OS X program, it means no association. This option is available from the level of Properties of a specific file available in the context menu. The window will show, among other things, the type of the file and the information by which the program is used to launch the file. Using the "Change" button we can select the desired program. If there is no software on the list, simply select "Browse" and manually select the directory where the application is installed. Checking the "Always use the selected program ..." box will permanently associate the FNS file with the Mac OS X program.

Step 3. Update Mac OS X to the latest version

If, however, after binding Mac OS X with Apple FontSyncScripting Font Profile there were still problems, you should update the program to the latest version. In this case, use the Apple, Inc. website or update the program from the application.

Step 4. Check for the following problems with the FNS file

Of course, it may happen that despite the above steps, the file still does not work. File problems can be divided into the following:

The FNS file may be unusually small compared to the original file. Usually this applies to FNS files downloaded from the Internet in case the download did not finish properly. The only repair option is to download the file again.
The computer may have fallen victim to a computer virus or hacker. A virus scan using an up-to-date antivirus program should fix the problem. Alternatively, you can use the scanners available online. However, it is important to scan the entire system, not only the file FNS or the program directory. However, remember that not every infected FNS file can be recovered, so it is important to take care of regular backups.
A typical compatibility error - the program does not support the older version of the FNS file. These problems are known and are often very easy to fix using the software developers's website.
There can be many reasons for this. Repairing is very dependent on the file type. Some programs offer the option of recovering data from damaged FNS files. You can restore the file from a backup or use Apple, Inc. help.
When reading, a message appears that the file was encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted FNS files can be used by the device on which they were encrypted, on any other device it is required to have the appropriate cryptographic key and decrypt the file before its recovery.
Some operating systems do not allow file operations in certain locations, eg in system directories or directly on the system drive. The problem is only writing to the file, not reading it. It is best to move FNS to a different directory.
This problem only occurs with more complex files. Some file types can only be opened in one program at a time. Closing other programs should help. Sometimes it is necessary to wait a while before referencing the FNS file again. However, some background programs may block the FNS file while scanning. If nothing helps, please reset the device.
