Font Book won't install fonts

[stillblue]

Sometimes when I try to add fonts to Fontbook, they don't take. This happens with about 30% of the fonts I try to install. It doesn't even open an install box. Yet when I go onto my other Mac to install the same font, there's no problem. I've tried dragging the font off the cd and onto the hard drive to install it and still nothing. Any ideas what I can do?

Hi there and welcome,

I would have a look at Linotype's Font explorerX it's free and handles fonts a lot better than Font Book !
