Computer (Langauge) setting auto resetting itself?

I recently installed a new hard drive in my computer, haven't had any issues with it however for some odd reason the language settings reset itself this morning (after restarting my computer). I typically have English, Chinese (traditional) zhuyin, and Chinese (traditional) pinyin enabled.
Is there any reason why it might be doing this? I rarely restart my computer, hence why I only just noticed.
I appreciate the help

Is there any reason why it might be doing this? I rarely restart my computer, hence why I only just noticed.
The only thing I can think of is that the longer you go without restarting your computer, the more chance there will be some cumulated random change in startup settings. You might try restarting every day like most and see if it continues.

  • How does one stop Safari for Windows from auto resetting itself?

    Safari for Windows running on XP Pro SP2 on a Dell Latitude D520
    gets its settings reset automatically somehow. Also, the saved
    userids/passwords randomly get "lost". These behaviors occur whether the
    system is left running (with Safari terminated) then Safari is
    started or when the the system is put in sleep mode (with Safari
    terminated) and Safari is started after waking the system or when
    the system is put into hibernate state (with Safari terminated) and then
    Safari is started when the system is woken from hibernation. The
    resetting and lost UIDs/PWDs is a random occurrence; it may, or may
    not, occur after any one of the three use cases described above.
    This behavior is becoming very annoying and will cause me to dump
    Safari for Windows as my patience wears thin.
    Any known solutions or suggestions will be greatly, and gratefully, appreciated.

  • Illustrator 2014: Scratch disk preference keeps resetting itself

    Hello Illustrator community.
    I have recently noticed that in my Illustrator CC 2014 18.0.0, the scratch disk preference setting keeps resetting itself. I'm using a MacBook pro with a single SSD, but I have an external Lacie Thunderbolt SSD that I got to use as the scratch disk for Illustrator and Photoshop. The problem is that if I set the scratch preference to use the external as the primary and my startup as the secondary,  everything is fine and it let's me know that the change will take effect once it's reopened. Upon reopening Illustrator I double check and it's saved, and everything works fine. But if I happen to open Illustrator without my external attached, when I check the scratch preference,  it will revert to using the startup as the main scratch location, which I understand.  But the next time illustrator is opened with my external connected, the scratch setting is still defaulted to using the startup disk. At that point I would need to change the preference, close illustrator and then reopen to make sure Illustrator is using the external as scratch.
    So for some reason it's not saving my preference for the scratch disk, while all other preferences seem to be saved fine. In Photoshop CC 2014, I can set the scratch preference,  which works fine, close Photoshop and reopen without the external attached and then close and reopen with the external reattached,  and it will remember my preference for having the external as the primary scratch.
    Is this just the way Illustrator is meant to work, or is this possibly a bug? Anyone have experience with this?
    I used Illustrator CC 17.x.x before this but didn't notice if it operated the same way, since at that time I didn't have a dedicated scratch disk to use.
    Thank you very much, I look forward to your help and replies!

    The last thing Adobe AI does upon a quit is to write the existing state of the preferences file to disk. If it is using the local HD as scratch, then that is what is recorded in the preferences.

  • My IPOD keeps resetting itself

    When I connect my IPOD to the computer with the updater program running, the unit just keeps resetting itself on its own. The dpdating tool give the error message "can't mount IPOD" and shuts down. As long as I have the IPOD connected to the computer it continues to reset itself. Does any one have any ideas how to fix this problem?

  • Computer is resetting itself

    Hi I have a MS-6340M Ver5.0 Mainboard which I have just update the CPU to  a 2.6Ghz CPU. I have replaced the CPU fan and heat sink with one rated to 3.0Ghz.
    The problem I am having is that the computer keeps resetting itself. Sometimes on start up and sometimes when I start a program, sometime during using a program.
    I thought it was due to over heating? but still does it with new fan, are there any setting that I have not set corretly or do I have a faulty New CPU.
    Can some one help?
    Regards Navyboy.

  • How can I sync my iPad to a computer after syncing it to the iCloud? I have the option of setting it up new, or restoring to a sync from many months ago. I dont want to lose any apps but I would like to back up on computer. No auto sync like other devices

    How can I sync my iPad to a computer after syncing it to the iCloud? I have the option of setting it up new, or restoring to a sync from many months ago. I dont want to lose any apps but I would like to back up on computer. No auto sync like other devices.

    Plug it into your computer. Tell it to sync with "this computer" instead of iCloud. You shouldn't have to remove any apps. Otherwise, you can save the app data by using i-FunBox ( http://www.i-funbox.com/ ) just go to the "devices" tab and select 'user applications' and select all of your apps and tell iFunBox to "copy to pc" you're done! You have them all backed up.

    My iPhone reset itself and is now asking me to reconfigure it. I connected it to my computer to do it on iTunes, but it says that it can't... It went back to the configure screen as it was when I first got it but I've had this phone for about half a year. It was fully functional until about yesterday. Someone help.

  • My ipad 3 reset itself back to the original setting.

    My ipad 3 reset itself back to when you take it out of the box.
    All setting is gone. What happened?
    I have no idea.
    I just took it out of my bag and turn it on and the welcome message, Hello appeared and asked to set the country and so on.
    Please help!
    Before I plug it into my imac, I want to know what caused this.
    Also, the other day, the ipad was locked with a timer, and it won't let me access it until the timer ran out.
    What the hack is going on?
    Anyone?

    The welcome screen you describe may just be that an iOS update has been applied. Your data should still be intact. If not you can back up from iCloud or from a local back up you may have performed via iTunes. Just push through the Welcome screen questions to complete the update.

    When I connect my I Pod to my computer the apple logo appears it resets itself and keeps doing it. Why is this? How can I fix it?

    Did you try a hard reset? Hold the On button and the Home button until it powers down but continue to hold until it begins to power up again. See if that brings any success.

  • My ipod keeps resetting itself when i plug it in to the computer, now what?

    Basically, I plugged my ipod into my laptop as usual and itunes sprang up with an error message that i can't quite remember. I just remember that it mentioned a file corruption and that i should either restore the ipod settings or i should disconnect and reconnect it. I reconnected it and got the same result, then tried again. This time iTunes didn't recognise it all and within a minute of being connected my ipod reset itself. The laptop registers it, but my ipod just keeps resetting itself and i don't know what to do. I've tried resetting it and restoring default settings, so what more can i do or is a repair the only option?

    Follow the steps mentioned in this article to disable the camera notification: http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1501 , then try again to connect to iTunes.

  • Airport Extreme drops wireless and resets itself about 20 times a day

    hi all,
    i am having wireless network issues with my Airport Extreme.
    I have a secured (WPA) network set up at work using the Apple Airport Extreme. We have about 7 - 10 users on it at one time during business hours. What has been happening is our Airport resets itself and drops everyone off. This happens quite frequently but with no real pattern, sometimes it drops 5 times an hour, sometimes it goes for hours without dropping anyone.
    Now this issue is not a new one for us, nor is it isolated to the Airport Extreme. Actually i have had D-Link and linksys WAP's do the exact same thing in my office.
    Our offices are relatively small and its open concept (no walls between the users and the airport) however the building we are in has loads of wireless networks fighting for space. I can see over a dozen other wireless networks from my computer at any time.
    Im at my wits end with this because it seems like any wireless access point we try ends up failing in the same way. They never totally pooch out, they just always shut themselves down and restart.
    Couple more details about the networks
    Mostly PC's but a few macs.
    The Airport is set to use interferance robustness as well as auto-channel switching.
    we have also added a airport express to this network to help boost signal strength.
    As i said we have anywhere from 6 - 10 people on this network at one time, none of us doing any significant activity (just browsing and emails). But when im here alone it never drops me. it seems to relate to the # of users.
    Anyone have any ideas? Im totally lost and at the point where im going to scrap wireless and just wire everyone to the network!
    THANKS IN ADVANCE,
    MCM

    some more info.
    1. I upgraded my firmware to 7.1.1 from 7.0 and still drops connections.
    2. However upgrading my Airport Utility software allowed me to actually see logs after the thing restarts. This is what im getting when computers lose connections:

    i read some other forum posts (macfixit.com) that pointed to an article about this, but of course you gotta pay for it and i have limited faith in the solution. So anyone know what it means when it Rotates the TKIP group key?
    could this be a security issue and not interfeaance ?
    or both?
    thanks,

  • HP Officejet Pro 8500A Periodically resets itself

    About every 20 minutes the screen on my HP Officejet Pro 8500A goes blank, then redisplays, followed by the carriage shifting sounding like the printer is resetting itself to print a job.  I'm set up on a WiFi connection and have no screen blanking set.  This resetting is VERY disconcerting as it happens with no warning.  How can I stop this periodic reset?
    This question was solved.
    View Solution.

    Hi HevnLgh,
    I completed all of the steps you recommended and they did not solve the problem.  However two days later the problem has disappeared.
    The problem was not that the printer was powering off.  Also it was not connected to a computer in any manner other than WiFi, though it did have a phone line connection to send/receive FAXes.  The printer display was blanking for a few seconds, followed by redisplay and carriage movement that sounded just like when it was getting ready to print.  However no printout resulted, nor was there any print job pending.
    Now the display goes dim periodically for a few seconds, but comes back on.  However there is no longer any carriage movement or other noises.  Since the sudden noise was always the annoying factor I'm satisfied that the issue is resolved.
