Changing regional settings gives error

Hello,
When trying to set the regional settings I get the following error:
The column "column name
Parent Instance" in the list or library "list name" has been marked for indexing. Please turn off all indexed columns before changing the collation of this site. You may re-index those columns after the collation of the site
has been changed
Is there any fix for this? I don't think it's a good idea to remove indexed system columns such as parent, child instance...How would I re-index those system columns? We need the currency, date and time to display according to the chosen
locale.
Thanks,
Martin

Please ensure the "Sort Order" option is chosen "General". After that, your "Locale" will be changed successfully.

Changing regional settings site/site collection/farm level

Went through existing articles. None exactly explains our issue.

Our issue:
all sites in the site collection had local regional settings. index columns were in use. in order to change each site regional settings we need to first disable index colums.
suddenly the farm administrators forced a policy that set all site collection to english regional settings. what happens to sites that were forced to change regional settings.
we use infopath form based solution and there was strange change in behaviour as a result. but this is not an issue for this thread.
are index colums still ok after the forced change?
can we force back the site collection/farm regional settings back to local and all is ok?
should we disable and enable again all index colums?
how is it that site change does not allow regional settings change and farm/site collection change allows it?
thanks in advance!

Change regional settings

hi
i want to change regional settings of my system. for example, i want to change date format
is there any api or something like that that i can use.

Within the JVM you have the Locale and TimeZone (and other classes). If you want to change it for the "System" (i.e. the OS), no you cannot (at least not without special libraries and/or a Runtime.exec() call (AFAIK).

Changing regional settings in CS6/Acrobat X Pro

Hello,
I have just installed CS6 and would like to change the regional settings from USA to European A4.
The following test has been done:
Created customised A4 job options for each of: Standard Quality, High Quality, Press Quality
Then edited preference for Conversion from Microsoft Word to PDF using new job option 'Standard Quality A4'
PDF created is still in Letter sizing after rebooting machine.
Note: the original Microsoft Word file has a page setup of A4.
What is the best way to make wholesale changes across Adobe CS6 so that millimetres/A4 settings are the default ?
Thank you.

Hi Cre8tiveNess,
You need to set the same preferences in Control Panel > Adobe PDF Printer > Printing preferences.

App-V 5.0 package, struggling to change regional settings

Hello,
I have an issue with a specific company app that requires certain regional settings to be present, which is not acceptable in a RDS server environment.
The tried and failed:
1) Modifying registries under HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Control Panel\International doesn't do the trick.
2) Using a script (control.exe intl.cpl,,/f:\\serverfilepath) stopped working with the following error message:
Any recommendations? I was under heavy impression that registries typically solve all issues for such apps.

Hello,
You can most likey include the registry keys in the package - but my assumption is the following;
1. They would be excluded by the sequencer
2. They would be excluded by the client
3. Any API would not directly point to the virtual registry keys
So virtualizing them would be useless.
The last error message seems to relate to how you are locking down the server.

Changing regional settings

just moved to US with my HP deskjet ink advantage 4625 all in one printer which was acquired in Israel.
I understood that i need to change the regional settings to be able to use a 564 ink cartridges.
how to do that ?
tnx
jacki

Hi jacki,
I'm sorry to inform you, the HP Deskjet Ink Advantage 4625 do not have any compatible ink cartridges in the USA.
The 564 ink cartridges are identical to the 178 ink cartridges as available in Israel, not to the 655 which are completely different cartridges.
I afraid there are no compatible ink driver for the 4625 in the USA, as the HP Deskjet Ink Advantage Series is not available in the US market.

ICloud is changing regional settings in C++ Runtime

Hello,
I'm developing an app in C++ that is using SQL sentences for storing data in a database and I've a weird problem. When I launch a MFC (Windows) file selection window, iCloud is launched and it's changing the regional settings (locale settings) in the C++ Runtime to English in non-English Windows systems.
After closing the window, iCloud is not restoring the locale settings to the machine original ones, so the execution of the programs that are using the C++ Runtime gets messed (in my case, all the points in SQL sentences are changed to colons, so you can imagine the mess)...
Will Apple launch a fixed iCloud soon?
Thanks!

Change Purchase order gives error message ---- making PO to Hold.

Hi SRM gurus,
We are trying to change the PO which is not issued to the vendor or output prepared and getting the following error in the web browser.
"Complete Purchase order &&&&&&&&&& first or Hold the changes".
We are trying to add the street name in the vendor address thru. Header Data ---> Partner Overview ---> Vendor -- details tab.
The "check" gives the following message Purchase order &&&&&& with document number &&&&&& is correct.
Only when we "Order" it the above error arises and we cannot make changes anymore.
Did anybody got this error?

Hi Sridhar,
Pls Note if you have clicked on the "Order" Tab then the PO is sent to vendor,In that case you can't change it for sent line item and if want to do that then Pls cancel the sent PO first.
Pls revert in case of any problem.

Changed regional settings - connection pane dissapears

I use Version 2.1.1.64 Build MAIN-64.45 on Win XP SP3.
I have changed my windows locale to Luxembourg (control panel -> regional and language options). After that when i run Oracle SQL Developer, connection pane does not show up. After I reverted locale settings back to United States and restarted Oracle SQL Developer, everything got back to normal.
This looks like a bug in that software.

Yes, AFAIK happens in all versions. Some ("rare") locales just don't work.
The more logical workaround instead of changing your system wide settings would be add this to \sqldeveloper\bin\sqldeveloper.conf:
AddVMOption -Duser.region=USHope that helps,
K.

Hi Balaji,
I did the same thing went to ST22 ...
how to correct the error
Probably the only way to eliminate the error is to correct the program.
If the error occures in a non-modified SAP program, you may be able to
find an interim solution in an SAP Note.
If you have access to SAP Notes, carry out a search with the following
keywords:
"MESSAGE_TYPE_X" " "
"SAPLPS_BAPI" or "LPS_BAPIF01"
"CHK_PRECOMMIT"
I am Checking for OSS notes

Changing regional settings for a printer

I have printer which is purchased in US and being used in India. It had HP 61 cartridges. Once cartridge finished, I click on buy online from hp help. It showed me 802 series to buy which I ordered online. Look at different support pages, I called HP call center for regionalisation reset, however they need original cartridge in working condition which is not possible now. I have infact thrown old ones. Buying 61 series in India will cost more than a new printer cost. Can you please let me know how to make this printer work with 802series?

Hi In order to perform such a pen regionalization you will need a full set of both Black and Tri-Color genuine HP 802 ink cartridges, the original ink cartridges should not be required for a such, as well you will need to have the printer connected and installed on your computer. Once getting the new ink cartridges contact HP once again, once filling the form within the bottom of the page below you will get a case number and the contact details:https://support.hp.com/in-en/contact-hp/product/HP-Deskjet-3050-All-in-One-Printer-series---J610/4066450/model/4066451#Z7_3054ICK0KGTE30AQO5O3KA30B3 As a reference you may show the following document which clearly show the requirements for a such:A full set of HP cartridges for your new country or regionhttp://support.hp.com/us-en/document/c02558798 Please let me know if you experience any further issues after contacting HP again, I will do my best to guide you further

Error in South Africa Regional Settings in Windows Server 2012 and Windows 8

Please note that the format for numbers in South Africa regional settings is incorrect. I discovered this through on of our products that would not work on Server 2012, but works from XP to Windows 7.
Where the decimal was always a point it has now been changed to a comma, which is incorrect and most likely will cause a lot of issues for customers in south africa that use decimal data.
I can already see spatial data breaking where decimals are used and stored with points and not commas.
To reproduce this error set your regional settings to South Africa and execute the following code in C#
System.Convert.ToDouble("10.1234");
This will throw a FormatException. Change regional settings from a , to a . and there we go it works.

It seems that this is development related issue, please try to submit a new post in DEV forum. Thanks.
Thanks

Respectfully Mr. Xia, it looks like the OP is reporting a localization issue, not a development issue.
For the OP, there's a
well researched post by a South African developer describing that the decimal comma is the correct choice. The work cites University style guides, International conference agreements, and government legislation and regulation.
An excerpt from Mr. MacLean's post, quoting work from EEPublishers:
English-speaking countries (plus China, India and Japan) use the decimal point. There seems to be a general tendency to formally declare its use worldwide and the International Organisation for Standardization, ISO, also tends towards using the decimal point
over the decimal comma. In view
of the South African law, however, the comma shall still be employed in South Africa as “the only recognised decimal indicator for all numbers” [3].

Configure regional settings

How do I change regional settings normally done during initial configuration?

For what purpose? There are different places where you can change the settings depending upon what you need to do.
Settings>General>International is one place where you can change regional settings.

I want to change my settings for country of region from Australia to United Kingdom and everytime i click on United Kingdom the writing appears in arabic. Is this normal?

I have moved counties (Australia to UK). Everytime i try and change the settings so my country of region is United Kingdom, the writting appears in arabic. (i have tried this several times) Is this normal or an error in the settings?

If the address and the Country/Region on your account is the UK (it should be on the first screen that you go to when you log into your account on your computer's iTunes via Store > View My Apple ID) then the payment details screen should be UK based - if I select Visa on the payment details screen then it defaults to my name and address (with UK) on my iTunes account.
Does that first show UK as your country ?
