If you have Ultimate already, you can change the language to any language you want without reinstall.

Changing language on Windows for Mac

Hi! I'm from Russia and I am going to buy Mac in Germany and Windows for it. Will it be possible to change the language of Windows to Russian from German??? Is it easy???

W7 Ultimate is the only version that lets you select the language. Here in Portugal if you purchase a computer the shop will change the language of W7, any version, from Portuguese to any other language.
They have extracted the utility from Ultimate and use that to do it.
Probably frowned upon by Microsoft but it works OK. I believe Microsft only let them sell the language of the country but this gets round it for the buyer.

Change language on compaq Cd

Hi I have a Compaq CQ10 I biught in Spain and I want to change the languge to English. I have tried everything and it won't convert to English. I went into BIOS and changed it there but it is still in Spanish. Can anyone help please? All advice gratefully accepted

Hi ,
Thank you for visiting the HP Forums! A great place where you can find solutions for your issues, with help from the community!
I came across your post about the Notebook, and wanted to assist you! I have looked into your issue about your Compaq-Mini-CQ10-PC and the wrong language being selected. Here is a fix from Microsoft. From the start button, control Panel, clicking clock, language, and region, and then clicking region and language. Click the keyboards and languages tab. Under display language, choose a language from the list, and then click OK. Here is a link to changing languages in Windows XP , it shows you how to do this. Hope this is helpful to you. Thanks.

Changing language in login or password window

Ok, this is very important question for, maybe, all russian speaking owners of iphones or ipads. In russia and other russia or other russian speaking countries many sites implemented new service ( you can type your login or pass in russian). But iOS doesn't have the option to change language in these login pass windows. If its possible, and I really hope thats it is, fix this problem please. Appreciate

Change Language Switching Shortcut in Windows 8

Language switching shortcut is set to "Win + Space", but I want to disable win key through registry and remap the "Win + Space"
to "left Ctrl + Space" as Windows 7, which is not listed under
“Change langrage bar hot keys”. How
could I do this?

Hi,
This function is by design. For more information regarding keyboard shortcuts, please see:
Keyboard shortcuts
As maelwliams suggested above, we might change the switch input language hot keys to ctrl+shift. Click the Change language bar hot keys->on the advanced key settings tab->click Change key sequence, then select in the switch input language.
And if we want to change the default behavior of those hotkeys, then we may consider to seek help in some developer forums for a better help.

Satellite Pro C660-1JL - How to change the language of Windows 7?

Hello,
I bought Toshiba with preinstalled official Windows 7 Professional 64 service pack 1. And would like to change language from German to Russian.
According to instructions from microsoft home page I could not get the result. MUI pack is not shown when searching for Windows up-dates (some other up-dates are only available, but not language pack)...
What would you recommend how to solve this problem ?
Its Satellite Pro C660-1JL

Hey,
> I bought Toshiba with preinstalled official Windows 7 Professional 64 service pack 1
You cant change the language on Windows 7 Professional, this is only possible on Windows 7 Enterprise (volume license) and Windows 7 Ultimate.
So if you want another language, buy Windows 7 Ultimate or be happy with current language of Windows 7 Professional. ;)

Change Keyboard Language in Windows Login page

Is there someone WHO can help with a solution to a multilanguage Windows 8.1 image i'm testing at the moment.
My problem is in the login window, where i can't find a solution to set the keyboard languge trough GPO or Registry.
I have tried to set the language in the registry:
HKEY_Users\.default\Keyboard LAyout\Preload: 1 = reg_sz to 00000406 (Danish language code), but this does not Work and then i have tried to set the same in S-1-5-18/19 and 20, but nothing helps.
The GPO for setting language inside Windows Works fine, but i really need to also get the login window to use the same language, as someone is using some special charater and they can't find them, when the login window is using United Kingdom keyboard and
not the local language.
I have search the net for a solution, but the only solution i can find, is to manually go in to the control panel > Region > Administrative > Copy Settings by choosing manually to use the same language with the "Welcome screen and system
accounts.
There most be someone else in the same situations, where they want this set Automatic, so i can use the multilanguage image around the World?
Really hope someone has the solution to this.... :-)
Additional information is that i have made the image by using DISM to integrate the language pack to both the boot.wim and the install.wim and have set the United kingdom to the default language.

Hi,
First,it seems that we can customize a image (use the same language with the "Welcome screen and system accounts) to test it.
Meanwhile,I suggest you follow the link to check the result.

How to change language in Photoshop CS5 from Polish (or any else) to English? (Windows)

Hi,
I have a Polish language version of Photoshop CS 5 and I'd like to change it to english.
I've tried by
Edit>Preferences>Interface: Interface language
but there is only Polish language to choose.
Is there english version to download anywhere?
I'll be glad for any help

Those of you who are legitimate Photoshop users - you know we're not talking to you. If you are a legitimate user, you should well be supporting those of us speaking to the people who have illegally downloaded a cracked version in a language other than their own!
It may well be a desirable feature for Adobe to support your changing the language. But they simply don't.
Possibly this is because pirated versions being limited to a single language cuts down the number of people who would want to download them. Maybe they sell more legitimate copies due to this than they would to multilingual people who would appreciate the ability to legitimately change language at will.
Or maybe there are good technical reasons why a different build is needed for Polish than English. There are differences in files, beyond the language resources, even between en-US and en-GB versions.
Clearly Adobe has made this decision with their eyes open. Go ahead and ask for a different decision, but it's unlikely it's going to get you anywhere. And for God's sake stop being put off by people who aren't tolerant of software pirates! The world needs more such people!

How does battery charge work ThinkPad T430s

I recently bought a Lenovo ThinkPad T430s 2356-LRG and was wondering how the charge technology worked. I have searched around and looked in the manual but I couldn't find a good answer.
My questions is that I use the notebook alot on AC power. And often for extended periods of mid to heavy load. I run Linux and have setup ChargeThreshold. It stops charge at 95% and begins again at 45%.
But when I keep the AC power on, and if the battery has 80% it does not move up or down as expected. Because it must drop lower than 45%.
Will the power then go straight to the machine and bypass the battery? Because the Battery-LED on the back is turned off. Or will it go via the battery and produce charge cycles on the battery?
So let's say the battery is bypassed will it then be fine to keep it on AC and active for a period of many days with heavy load but monitor the temp of the battery. I know heat kills it.
I could also buy an 95W power adapter and remove the battery completely from the machine when I have it at my desk for an extended period of time.
Solved!

Hey there MikalD and welcome to the forums!
What you are experiencing is as per normal. These charge thresholds are determined in your power manager, there is a nifty Knowledgebase Article about this.
First, open up the ThinkVantage Power Manager. Click on the battery tab, and then Battery Maintenance. This will open a window where you will be able to change and set your charging thresholds to your desired preferences.
Additionally, here are links that can give some insight and advice of how to increase the longevity of battery life.

[SOLVED] Thinkpad T430 brightness keys broken after firmware upgrade

Hi.
I've upgraded the firmware on my Thinkpad to version 2.51. Since that I'm unable to change the display brightness via the Fn-Keys on the keyboard. What still works is writing values to /sys/devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:02.0/backlight/acpi_video0/brightness but of course that's not how it should be.
Here's some dmesg output:
[ 7.638814] thinkpad_acpi: ThinkPad ACPI Extras v0.24
[ 7.638816] thinkpad_acpi: http://ibm-acpi.sf.net/

[ 7.641156] thinkpad_acpi: Console audio control enabled, mode: monitor (read only)
Any idea why it's broken and how it can be fixed?
Thanks,
Julian

Awesome, the acpi_backlight=vendor kernel command line parameter actually fixed it.
Does anybody know what exactly has changed and why this in necessary now?
Update: If you do this, you'll get error messages like this in your log/dmesg every time you press a brightness key:
kernel: thinkpad_acpi: unknown possible thermal alarm or keyboard event received
kernel: thinkpad_acpi: unhandled HKEY event 0x6050
kernel: thinkpad_acpi: please report the conditions when this event happened to [email protected]
The kernel command line parameter acpi_osi="!Windows 2012" also works and seems to be the better way to fix this.
Bugreport at kernel.org: https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=51231
tl;dr: Firmware update introduced 101 brightness levels even though the hardware only supports 16 but Windows 8 requires this. Reducing or increasing the brightness by one doesn't change anything at all so the firmware will still report the old value as the new brightness thus it'll never actually change the brightness. But if you explicitly tell the firmware that you're not Windows 8, it will only report 16 brightness levels and everything works fine. Lenovo, seriously?

Script to automate the display language on windows server

Hi,
I'm looking for a script which should change the windows display language from non-english to english (vizversa).
Here is the scenario:
On windows server 2008 R2 I have two language installed - Japanese and English with the help of MUI packs available on microsoft site. The native language of windows server 2008 R2 is Japanese. Consider there are 10 sys admins only knows
Japanese but not english. Similarly there are 10 sys admins knowing only English. I being english administrator, i should each time go to regional setting in the control panel and click on change display language to english. After
I finish my task I need to set back the language to japanese(native).
I'm looking for script which can auotmate this process.
Objective:
The script should automatical change the language to Japanese when I logoff from the system.
Here is the steps to reach "Change Display language" on windows server 2008
Go to control Panel > Category view (on right side top ) > System and Security > Clock ,Language and Region > Under “Regional Language” > Change display
language > Go to Tab “Keyboards and Languages” > Look for the dropdown menu “Choose a display language” and choose the appropriate language you prefer from the dropdown list
Kindly note this menu/option is available for Vista,Windows 7 and Windows Server 2008. This option is also available on Windows XP/Server 2000/2003 provided the LIP/MUI is installed.
Thanks

Guys,
Forgive me, but I think you are making this far too complicated. Using a script to achieve this is, in my view the wrong tool, and a little dangerous. If your logoff script fails to run for any reason, 11 Japanese sysadmins will be waving Samurai swords
at you :-).
There is a single Group Policy setting that will do exactly what you want on Vista, W7, W2K8 & R2.
Create a new Group Policy object ("English_interface", for example.
Edit the new policy object
Drill down to "User Configuration, Policies, Administrative Templates, Control Panel, Regional and Language Options"
Pick the setting "Restricts the UI languages Windows should use for the selected user" and Enable it.
Drop down the "Restrict users to the following language" and pick "English"
Click "OK"
Link your new GPO somewhere in the OU hierarchy that contains the English user
If other (Japanese?) users are also in the same container, you can filter application of the GPO by security group so that the policy can only be read and applied by the English group.
That's all you need to do!
As a point of principle. I ALWAYS install my OS in US English then add languages, and set the locals to use their own language. This is because service packs and hotfixes invariably arrive for US English first, and some hot fixes are NEVER translated.
I'm just doing this for a single W7 build in English, to be deployed in 6 countries, with 7 different languages and 9 different keyboard layouts. Fun...
Come back if you need more help. I volunteer to visit and help if you want!

Change language in Acrobat XI Pro - It does not work

I installed Acrobat XI Pro using the Adobe Application Manager (AAM) on Windows 7, English. I am on a Creative Cloud subscription, so i have no .exe file to install from.
Acrobat XI Pro defaults the Application Language to English when installing from AAM since Windows is an English version. I want Acrobat XI Pro in Swedish language.
If i go to Acrobat's Preferences > Language and change the Application Language from English to "Choose at application startup" i never get the dialog that should provide me with the option to change language when i re-launch Acrobat XI Pro. If i hold down Shift-Ctrl when launching Acrobat XI Pro i don't get that dialog either.
I see the same issue on three computers, two with Win 7 and one with Win 8. Both OS versions are English.
So, how do i change the Application Language from English to Swedish?
/Roger

In case anyone else run into the same issue, here is the solution:
1. Add remove programs -> Select Acrobat
2. Then click on Change button present next to Uninstall option. Acrobat setup dialog will be launched.
3. Now select Modify option in Acrobat setup dialog
4. In the dropdown list select View Adobe PDF
5. Select the desired language support
6. Install the required language packs
When i did, i got the dialog that let me change the language next time i launched Acrobat XI.
Special thanks goes to Rohit from Adobe!

Firefox freeze whenever tired to change language input

Hi. Whenever I tried to change language input to enter other languages Firefox freeze (program not responding).
It happens as soon as I hit alt+shift or when I click language bar to select other language.
It also happens with several languages (that I tested, might be all), and I tried various input software/mode including windows default, all freeze. Reset Firefox under help does not work either.
This issue occur with Firefox and Chrome, but not IE... Might not be Firefox problem as it happen w Chrome, but and ideas please? Thanks.
J
Edit:
* regedit might be changed, but do not believe touched internet setting.
* I can enter foreign language as long as I set that language to default, and do not change to other language in the language bar. Currently I am using foreign language input software as default, and switch to English input '''within '''that software.

Hi. karaoke I am not sure if its the same issue. The crash at language switch on my computer was due to the IME for Eastern Language Banks (Language option -> Detail under text services and input languages -> Properties -> reset/untick auto learn).
If you are not using Eastern Language IME... I am sure others here have more experience and can better help you. =)

How to change language?

I accidently selected "English" as application language at the first startup of Adobe Reader. Now I do not know how to change it to German, Edit -> Preferences -> International -> Application Language -> "Choose at Application startup" does NOT work. Do I have to uninstall Adobe Reader and reinstall it to change language?!?
Sorry for my broken English.
Kind regards - Oliver
OS: Windows Vista
Adobe Reader: 8.1.2

>
Claudio González, "How to change language?" #2, 26 Mar 2008 5:31 am If you go to Preferences > International (Display in older versions of Reader), you are offered limited language options. These are between English and the language you chose when downolading (older versions), and the present language and selecting language at startup (newer versions), which will probably offer the same two lternatives.
As I have written, selecting one of these Options does
b not work!
Wich means no matter what I choose here it has
b no effect
(even after restarting adobe reader or my notebook)!
Other Ideas?
