Characters Errors In International English Keyboard - Linux

Hello
I speak spanish as my natal language, but I use an American english keyboard in my laptop, that's why I use the International English keyboard set (U.S. English w/ deadkeys) to be able for me to write the spanish characters (�,�,�,�,�,�,�), but when I write them in any text field I just see squares (�).
I write in other text programs and everything goes fine...
I use Linux Kanotix 2005-3, with JVM 1.5.0_04-b05.
Thanks.
DiegoWarrior!

It was because the OS locals didn't include the spanish locals...
I Installed them and the problem was gone...
Bye!

No. The US store does not provide anything but US or Spanish (I think) keyboards. You have to order from the UK store to get an English keyboard.
The current options available online are U.S. English, Western Spanish, French or Japanese keyboards. You might try calling 1-800-MYAPPLE to speak to someone. It's possible you might be able to get something else as a BTO option.

Macbook bought in France with a international english keyboard problem

Hi,
My friend bought a macbook for france apple online store, he choosed a international english keyboard layout, but when he got it, he found that the keyboard is neither english laybout nor french layout, because there is not any configurations that matches his physical keyboard buttons.
The A - Z buttons is as the US keyboard, but the ;'~`[](){}/?! etc. are not correct, that means when u choose the US layout from the system preference->international, the A - Z work, but the ;'~`[](){}/?! are not at where u see them, when u choose FR layout, A - Z are not correct, british english doesn't work, too.
I have tried all the english countries and french countries, but no one works with 100% of the buttons.
Can Apple give me a solution to the problem? or if the macbook that he got is not well assembled?

Yes… I would at a minimum contact Apple sales or AppleCare regarding this. You have two options though. You can ask for a new one, given they can't simply swap out a keybaord you need to exchange the whole thing.
Otherwise, you can use it as a bargaining chip and say ask for a free external International English keyboard and a discount on your next Apple Store purchase… for instance.
Regardless, be polite yet firm with them as you did not get what you ordered.

How to get an international English keyboard?

Does anyone know how to get a MBP with an international English keyboard instead of the US English one? I find the rectangular return key almost impossible to get used to after years of using an L-shaped one.

The MBP ships with a standard keyboard, though it may be possible to remap individual keys. However, you're going to still have a standard keyboard.
You can change keyboards if you have a desktop Mac, and there are several options in a variety of languages. But a notebook is limited in this way.

[LR2 - SOLUTION] Using Lightroom in englsih with a non-english keyboard layout

Hi, Many of us, non native english speaking LR users, are using LT in english on a system having a non-US keyboard layout. The conseqeunce of this is that we can't reach a lot of keyboard shortcuts because LR doesn't offer any interface for configuring them. However, there's a workaround. I'll explain here what I did for the french language but you can apply this to your own language. For the non english languages, the keyboard shortcuts are defined in C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Photoshop Lightroom 2\Resources\<language>\TranslatedStrings.txt. If you are using LR in english, this file is not used and there's no similar file in C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Photoshop Lightroom 2\Resources\en. But you can create one containing only the shortcuts that you need. I have created a new TranslatedStrings.txt file containing only the keyboard shortcuts defined for the french version. I did this by copying only the lines containing the following sequences: ....Key=... ....KeyShifted=... ...AgPanel/LeftPanelShortcut... ...AgPanel/RightPanelShortcut... ...MenuShortcut/DecreaseRating= ...MenuShortcut/IncreaseRating= (french users can find this file here: http://www.mainsoft.fr/Files/LR/TranslatedStrings.txt . Copy this file to "C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Photoshop Lightroom 2\Resources\en" and relaunch Lightroom. Now you have the same keyboard shortcuts as when using LR in french. Interestingly enough, if you hit ctrl + < , the LR keyboard shortcut panel is displayed and it shows your new shortcuts. Again, you can do the same for your own language by copying the specified strings from the relevant folder. Hope this helps. -- Patrick Philippot MainSoft Consulting Services www.mainsoft.fr

Buying U.S. English Keyboard in Germany

I'm currently living in Germany and need to update my PowerBook G3 to a new (the update coming in a week or two) MacBook Pro. I can buy one with an International English keyboard from the German Apple website, but would rather get a U.S. keyboard (left shift key is truncated in International version, so harder for me to reach, same with return key).
Anybody know if it's possible to buy a MacBook Pro with a U.S. English keyboard in Germany?
Any help would be appreciated.
best,
Jake

Unfortunately, no. Not from Apple, at least. The online store for the US will not ship internationally.
You may be able to purchase one from a 3rd party retailer (e.g. Best Buy or another online seller), but I'm not certain - you'd have to check on that. Or, purchase online from the US online Apple Store and have it shipped to someone in the US who can then ship it to you.
Hope this helps...

Typing Spanish characters with English keyboard

I have both British and Spanish language inputs on International from System Preferences so I can switch between them.
This constrains me to use the character palette.
Does anyone know the keystrokes for accented vowels in Spanish, using English keyboard?
...as in á, é, í, ó, ú and ü
Thanks in advance

Yes, this feature does exist still in Mac OS X.
To activate this feature, do the following:
1. Open System Preferences.
2. Choose the International Preference Pane.
3. Click the Inputs tab.
4. Check the Character Palette.
5. You will notice a flag appear in your status bar next to your battery Life.
6. Click the flag, and select Show Character Palette.
7. From there you can choose the characters you want.
If you have any questions or don't understand something, feel free to post!

English keyboard and using austrian/german characters?

I got my MacBook Pro from the United States but now I got back to Austria. my problem is that I don't have specific characters listed on my English (US) keyboard, such as Ä,Ü, and Ö ( and the lowercase ones too) to do my work here.
I only need those letters since all the other characters (except the Euro-symbol) are on it. Instead of writing Ä, I have to write Ae, i.e. instead of Äpfel, I can only write Aepfel, which looks very ugly. But right now I havent found a way yet to write those letters without having to copy it from somewhere else (it also takes too much time).
I thought about something liek shortcuts but that would probably interfere with other shortcuts. But how about a program that automatically changes Ae (or ae or AE) into Ä?
Or is there a way to change the function of the second 'option/alt' button? Because I never really use the second one and I thought that it also should have a job.
Or would an applescript do it? I've never tried to create one or even thought about trying to make one even thought it seems to look pretty easy. I just dont have the time to learn it...
Btw, Ü = ue, and Ö = oe
Thank you for you help!

Thank you for your answer. I tried this before and that's actually alright but its like...I am already used to the U.S. keyboard (like those "~!@#$%^&*()_+"-characters are on different positions; Z is on the Y and Y on the Z button) that I don't really want to have to ook at the keyboard viewer all the time. That does not make me write much faster if I have to look up for the ä,ö, and ü (last time I forgot ß). On the other side, if I would be able just to write ae instead of ä it would be much more faster then to 'click-in-menu-bar-to-change-keyboard-layout-and-try-to-find-those-****-charact ers-and-change-keyboard-layout-to-back-to-U.S." way.
The best way would be a little app, running in the background, automatically changing EVERY ae to ä,oe to Ö, and ue to ü. But at least that should work in Office, which I haven't figured out yet.
Another reason why I don't want to use the german/austrian keyboard layout all the time: I have the US keyboard right in front of me, which is probably the most used one in the world (at least I think so) and I am not going to use the german/austrian keyboard in the very near future.
When I write e-mails or so in german, I always use ue cause it just cost too much time to write it the other way.

Spanish characters in English keyboard?

Hi all,
I have both British and Spanish language inputs from System Preferences so I can switch between them.
This constrains me to use the character palette. when typing Spanish.
Does anyone know the keystrokes for accented vowels in Spanish, using English keyboard?
The characters are: á, é, í, ó, ú, ü and ñ
Thanks in advance

It is very easy to learn and remember the accents on the Macintosh keyboard, unlike in Windows which are done as ALT- 000, where 000 is some forgetable number.
You don't have to learn each specific instance, just the associated vowel which is most commonly used with it. The set of pre-keys works with the other vowels as well.
So for example the umlaut ¨is most commonly seen on the German ü so just remember the associated cmd u followed by whatever vowel after to get:
option u = ä, ë, ï, ö, ü
similarly
option ` [under the esc key] = à, è, ì, ò, ù
option e = á, é, í, ó, ú
option i = â, ê, î, ô, û
option n = ã, õ, ñ
Some work more directly such as:
option a = å
option o = ø
option s = ß
option b = ∫
option c = ç
option d = ∂
opton f = ƒ
Some are more arcane but still memorable:
option q = œ (think of an extended o)
option w = ∑ (think of turning the w on its side)
option r = ® (fairly obvious)
option t = †
option y = ¥
option p = π
option v = √
option m = µ
option = = ≠
Usually the shift gets the capitalised version (doesn't work out 100% of the time).
This is what I love about the remarkable clear headedness and forethought that went into Macintosh design. Fortunately most of this has survived the transition to OSX.
Even if I don't specifically know which key does it a quick guess and try gets it for me.

Error 500--Internal Server Error while trying to create a new DataModel

Infrastructure_: OBIEE 11.1.1.5 on 64 bit Linux (RHEL)
Issue:* We get Error 500--Internal Server Error whenever we try to create a new data model in BI Publisher.
Details:* We installed OBIEE 11.1.1.5 on 64 bit Linux machine. Whenever we try to create a new data model in BI Publisher, the page errors out with the message

Hello,
I would prefer local language instead of US english.....
My tips.
1. DID you tried to Not apply the UDO/UDF things?
2. Do not log in to the database, start from
3. Please post the error message itself....
4. If you are running on MS SQL 2005 server (not express) , You can start SQL profiler, and monitor the New Database creation.... you will see in profielr where is the error message and which tables / data is missing.
If i know well,
When you create a new company, the SBO-COMMON database is used to deploy the new database....
If you get stock, reinstall your sbo-common from the last applyied patch..... (Detach SBO-common, move the files another directory, and start upgarder.exe).
Regards,
J.

English keyboard on Japanese iBook G4?

My wife bought her iBook in Japan with the original Japanese-layout keyboard (Japanese characters printed on the keys, etc).
After about a year of use, many of the letters were fading on her keys, and she needed a replacement keyboard... We've relocated back to the U.S., and she wanted to replace the old one with a U.S. standard layout keyboard...
So, today we bought that and had it installed at an authorized dealer locally....
It works fine, except the keys are still mapped to a Japanese keyboard, even if the language selected is US English. It seems like the iBook still thinks it has a Japanese-layout keyboard attached...
Have tried changing settings in system preferences (International and keyboard settings), but to no avail.
One example: pressing the left bracket key returns an @ sign, which is the normal location for that on a Japanese keyboard... how can she make it so typing the left bracket key returns the left bracket symbol?
In other words, how do we tell the iBook it has a US English keyboard now?
Thanks.....

In other words, how do we tell the iBook it has a US
English keyboard now?
The usual cure for this is to reset the PMU.

Where can I buy a Macbook pro retina display with english keyboard in bangkok

Hi,
I am currently in Bangkok right now. I wanted to buy the new Macbook Pro with retina display. I went to Power Buy in Central world and found out that the keyboard for the macs have thai characters as well as English ones. I wanted to buy a mac with plain English keyboard. The guy in the store said that is only possible if I buy online.
Is there anywhere or any store in Bangkok where I could get the new macbook pro with an english keyboard? Thanks.

Since nobody in this forum represents Apple or any store, you will probably get better info on this by directly contacting stores yourself.

Error 500--Internal Server Error when using BI Publisher within OBIEE 11g

I'm using OBIEE 11.1.1.6.2BP1 on a Linux x86-64 server and it has been working just fine. We recently started playing around with the BI Publisher component of that installation and every time i go to http://hostname:port/xmlpserver and try to log in with an Administrator username and password, the following error shows up:
Error 500--Internal Server Error
From RFC 2068 Hypertext Transfer Protocol -- HTTP/1.1:
*10.5.1 500 Internal Server Error*
The server encountered an unexpected condition which prevented it from fulfilling the request.
I have looked around for solutions and tried a couple of them (created a new Admin user in Weblogic Console and checked the opmnctl status) and they did not help. I'm looking for an answer other than upgrade to the latest and greatest
Any help is appreciated.

Do you have any SSO setup as that might be preventing the ability of the user to log into BI Publisher, hence the Internal 500 error message.
Are you using FMW security model for BIP and OBIPS integration which is by default. Check the xmlp-server-config.xml file from the repository [\Middleware\Oracle_BI1\clients\bipublisher\repository\Admin\Configuration\xmlp-server-config.xml] and see what your security model is pointing to?
Also what happens when you try to access from Administration>BI Publisher >Manager BI Publisher ?
