Adding foreign languages in titles

Hello, I am trying to add titles that contain Korean but they just show up as little boxes. Any idea how I can fix this?
Thanks,
Nathan

Make sure you have set the Font to a Korean one, like AppleGothic.

Foreign language attachment titles messed up

I often get files with Japanese titles attached to emails. In Mail on both my 4-year-old iMac and 1-year-old MBP, both running 10.8.2, these titles often get all goofy-charactered. Funny thing is, if I go to view my iCloud mail in Safari, the titles are fine. What's up?

Boxes often means support for the language has not been enabled. These pages describe how to do this:

Displays foreign language song titles as boxes not actuall characters.

Just like the title implied, i can only see English characters despite having a Japanese ime installed and also having fonts. I can type in the languge and my ipod displays it fine but itunes cant.

Just doublechecking ... Do you have supplemental language support enabled, as per the following document?

Foreign-language song titles

Hey all,
I own a lot of Japanese CDs and was wondering if there is a way to pull up the Japanese-language names for the songs from Gracenote. Right now all I'm getting is a bunch of weird boxes for the titles; I think I need a language pack from MS Windows Update but I'm not sure. Thanks for your help.

After selecting your keyboards, a globe symbol key will appear on your keyboards.
Tap it to cycle through the keyboards you have enabled.

(1) My iBooks Author help resources are in a foreign language. How do I change it to English? (2) Is there an iBooks Author pdf manual I can download?

(1) My iBooks Author help resources are in a foreign language. How do I change it to English? (2) Is there an iBooks Author pdf manual I can download?

There is no PDF available. I sent a link to a page full of links and info not much different from the help files.
There are many Free books in the iBooks store which will take you through the basics of iBA.
I like "Create your first Interactive book using iBooks Author"   its created by iBook-Widgets.com - who also supply widgets at a price.. but the book is very free and very good.. search the iBooks store for their title.
You cannot use iBA on an iPad, however, I also use the iPad app -- "Book Creater"   ( redjumper.net ) its very low priced around $3 or so. The people who create it are helpful and friendly. You can distribut your books to friends and family using Dropbox or other cloud storage. If you want to creaet an ePub file and then upload to the iBooks store, its not difficult. You create the book on your iPad. It is no where near as good as iBA for functionality.. but it spossible to make really good eBooks.
I think Applecare shoud come into effect with the language problems if it can be found to be a glitch on the computer. Applecare is product based and does not apply to software.
Take it stage by stage,   visit your Apple store and   ask if they can solve the help files in langauges first, then react to the answer, it could be they can solve the issue which leave you a clear path with iBA.
Also you can gather more indormation about how to use it with the help files.
Try the info I have included and   see how it develpops... any problems get back here and we can look for alternatives.
try this... https://itunes.apple.com/app/id661166101?mt=8&&referrer=click%3Da63089e4-e3d4-49 e9-896a-58e0cfd50acf
its the free version... if you like upgrade later.
Happy New Year... hope its a good one....

ResourceBundle in foreign languages

Hi!
I'm using a resource bundle file. Works great in many different languages.
However when I try to use russian letters (Cyrillic) it appears in my web page as ??????? - ?????.
Question- do resource bundle files freak out at foreign character sets ?
Do I need to do a meta-equiv to charset ISO-8859-5 ?
Help please!

I don't know about the encoding mapping stuff... but you shouldn't need to do that string getBytes translation at all. That would only be if your strings were read in as one format when they really should have been read as the other. This happens with Tomcat (and maybe others) because it always by default, uses ISO8895-1 as the encoding. Since that's an 8-bit format, it doesn't really corrupt the bytes, but if a UTF-8 string having several multi-byte characters was read, it would look like more characters (usually jibberish) then it should.
If the page's specifed charset is UTF-8, then what the browser submits will be UTF-8 bytes. So you want the charset defined in the @page declaration cuz it'll be set in the response header that way. The meta tag is usually used for completeness, but probably isn't really needed. The setCharacterEncoding() tells the server to use that encoding instead of ISO8895-1 for reading request data. This page is something I had written to test Chinese (you should be able to see that on Win2K or XP, I think). Just copy/paste the text in the page to the form, I see no reason Russian or others won't work.
// _lang.jsp
<%@ page language="java" contentType="text/html; charset=UTF-8" %>
<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.0 Transitional//EN">
<html>
<head>
     <title>Language Test</title>
     <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=UTF-8" />
</head>
<body bgcolor="#ffffff" background="" text="#000000" link="#ff0000" vlink="#800000" alink="#ff00ff">
<%
request.setCharacterEncoding("UTF-8");
String str = "\u7528\u6237\u540d";
String name = request.getParameter("name");
// OR instead of setCharacterEncoding...
//if(name != null) {
//     name = new String(name.getBytes("ISO8859_1"), "UTF8");
System.out.println(application.getRealPath("/"));
System.out.println(application.getRealPath("/src"));
%>
req enc: <%= request.getCharacterEncoding() %><br />
rsp enc: <%= response.getCharacterEncoding() %><br />
str: <%= str %><br />
name: <%= name %><br />
<form method="POST" action="_lang.jsp">
Name: <input type="text" name="name" value="" >
<input type="submit" name="submit" value="Submit POST" />
</form>
<br />
<form method="GET" action="_lang.jsp">
Name: <input type="text" name="name" value="" >
<input type="submit" name="submit" value="Submit GET" />
</form>
</body>
</html>Using get or post should both work fine.
As for the resource bundles... The contents have to be ASCII text. Non-ASCII need to be converted to Unicode escapes (\uXXXX). So you can write the file in Russian (or whatever) text encoding, then use the native2ascii tool to convert the file to the proper escapes. Then it'll be read as Unicode, and there is no translation needed at all, just write the strings out to the JSP page.

Update not displaying foreign language characters

I just upgraded to iTunes 9.1 for Windows 7, and now when I open it, the library no longer displays foreign characters (most specifically Japanese and Korean) anymore. It just shows boxes where the text should be. I'm worried that if I re-sync my iPod, it will only display boxes on that, too. Before I updated, everything was working fine and the library had no problem displaying foreign characters. Is there a way to fix this problem?

try to find about SP3,, and if you found that your languages supported then upgrade to it

Unwanted foreign language that won't go away!!!

Hey
I recently had to reformat my hard drive and rebuild all the software on my laptop. Upon reinstalling itunes I notice that all the playlist titles are in a foreign language that I dont recognise.
Also in th preferences my library is entitled *Käyttäjän David kirjasto*
I uninstalled itunes and reinstalled and it is exactly the same. I'm at a bit of a loss. Does anyone have any ideas why this is and how to get rid of it?

Hey there,
Have you tried this?
To change your language settings on a Windows PC:
Open iTunes.
From the Edit menu, choose Preferences.
Select the General tab.
On the Language pop-up menu (in the lower section of the window), choose your desired language.
Click OK.
Quit and reopen iTunes.
More information can be found through the link below. Hope this helps\

Are you really not able to type it right here on this site like I can below? The top row of keys is
(HM QWERTY) ճւերտյւիոպ
(Western QWERTY) խվէրդեըիոբ
I am wondering if you are perhaps trying to type into MS Word? That app tends to be defective. If so, try selecting the text and setting the font to Mshtakan, which is a complete Armenian font that comes with OS X.

System.getProperty with foreign language

Hello All,
I've developed a program that uses System.getProperty("user.home"), in order to transfer files to that location.
Everything's going well as long as I'm using English version.
When one of my customers ran this using a foreign language (Turkish, but it seems to have the same effect on other languages), instead of c:\documents and settings\administrator, he got a wrong fonetic path, i.e. C:\DOCUMENTS AND SETTÝNGS\ADMÝNÝSTRATOR (check the I's, they're not the same), although he has the English path in his computer.
You can see this also when you change the regional settings in an English based Windows to Turkish.
How can I make the System property look at the correct path (again, this happens in other languages as well)?
Thanks,
Barak

Hmmm.... I didn't think I used toUpperCase in my code. When all else fails, my advice is to read the API...
[http://java.sun.com/javase/6/docs/api/java/lang/String.html#toUpperCase()]
<quote>
Note: This method is locale sensitive, and may produce unexpected results if used for strings that are intended to be interpreted locale independently. Examples are programming language identifiers, protocol keys, and HTML tags. For instance, "title".toUpperCase() in a Turkish locale returns "T?TLE", where '?' is the LATIN CAPITAL LETTER I WITH DOT ABOVE character. To obtain correct results for locale insensitive strings, use toUpperCase(Locale.ENGLISH).

Catalog id is not getting displayed properly in Foreign Language (French)

Hi All,
I have created a web service id for the external catalog and I have assigned the same to one of the user. The name of the web service id is getting displayed properly in the shopping cart creation screen when the language is English. But when we are changing the user language to Foreign language (French), the name is not getting displayed properly.
Could you please advise me if there any settings needs to be done in the parameters of the specific web service id. Thanks in advance for your help.

Hi,
Go to External Web Services and the select the web service ID. Then click on GOTO >Translation and select the language and enter the description of the web service as to be disaplyed while users log in French against the language.
Thanks,

How do you install foreign language fonts?

Does anyone know how to install foreign language fonts that doesn't come with iPad?

Nobody here has any way to tell you that, and Apple itself never provides this kind of info. Make sure you tell them you want it here:

(Even on a desktop/laptop Mac with the full version of OS X Ethiopic currently requires installing 3rd party software. I can provide the source if you are interested)

Problem with charsets for foreign languages

hi
i have a problem with a webapplication
in my webapplication i have some code that gets data from a webpage of another webapplication. This other web application can use many foreign languages
the problem is that those foreign languages contain some special characters, and those special chars aren't displayed the right way
this is the code to get the data from the other webapp
private static StringBuffer getContent(String sUrl) throws MalformedURLException, IOException {
        StringBuffer content = new StringBuffer();
        URL url = new URL(sUrl);
        HttpURLConnection httpURLConn = (HttpURLConnection) url.openConnection();
        httpURLConn.setRequestProperty("charset", "utf-8");
        BufferedReader buffReader = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(httpURLConn.getInputStream()));
        String inputLine;
        while ((inputLine = buffReader.readLine()) != null) {
            content.append("\n" + inputLine);
        return content;
    }as you see , i tried to set the encoding to UTF-8 but that did not solve the problem

an example of those special chars

First please remember this is a public forum. If you are going to respond to the thread via e-mail please remove your signature prior to responding.
To resolve your difficulties you will need to go to the Language & Text preference pane. Once there click on Edit List and remove all languages besides English. You will then likely need to remove and reinstall the trial as the language setting I believe is set during the installation process.
