Default keyboard at start-up

Hi, I recently changed my French keyboard (AZERTY) to a standard English keyboard (QWERTY) on my iBook. I changed the keyboard in my preferences. However, at start-up, the default keyboard for my password is the AZERTY keyboard; after I am logged-in, the QWERTY keyboard is used by the system. How do I change the default keyboard to QWERTY without re-installing Tiger?
iBook G4 Mac OS X (10.4.8)

In System Preferences/Account/Login Options, please enable "Show input menu in login window". Then logout.
In the login window (not in the menu bar but in the login window itself), now you see a small input menu. Select US (or British?) and login. I hope next time you login the default is back to US keyborad layout. If it didn't work, then remove French keyboard layout from the menu.

Default Keyboard showing up when not enabled

Afternoon all,
First off my iPhone is a 5C running iOS 8.0.2
I recently downloaded the Swiftkey keyboard and loved it enough to remove my default English keyboard on my iPhone. So I ran into a problem when I did this though. Whenever I switched out of my Messages app and switched back the Emoji keyboard would be set to default in place of swiftkey. I had already changed the order preference under settings to have swiftkey as the first keyboard but this kept happening, enough times where I just removed the Emoji keyboard all together so just swiftkey was left. Now the problem I am running into is that the default iOS keyboard is now popping up whenever I open the app, even though it is not set as one of my keyboards. I am able to get the custom keyboard back by closing the app and opening up again. What's the point of setting a default keyboard if the OS is just going to override it at the start anyway? Any idea if there is an easy fix or is this some bug that will have to get patched in the future?
Thanks!

I think I may have put iPhoto in HHS trash. Could that be the problem?
I don't know what "HHS trash" is. If you put the iPhoto app into the trash on the Dock and emptied it, that would prevent you from opening iPhoto until it was reinstalled, of course, but it wouldn't affect your photos.
You didn't answer my question, though. Do you have backups? Is your computer actually 7 years old, and has it ever had the hard drive replaced?

[solved] Gnome default keyboard layout

Hi guys,
Can anybody please explain me why the following command works but the corresponding .conf entry does not?
setxkbmap -layout "us,pl,de" -option "grp:alt_shift_toggle"
[orschiro@thinkpad ~]$ cat /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/01-keyboard-layout.conf
Section "InputClass"
Identifier "keyboard"
MatchIsKeyboard "yes"
Option "XKBMODEL" "pc105"
Option "XkbLayout" "us,pl"
Option "XkbVariant" "altgr-intl,"
Option "XkbOptions" "grp:alt_shift_toggle"
EndSection
When using the .conf entry simply nothing happens.
Regards
EDIT
I was able to identify my problem. See the following:
The above .conf does not work since Gnome seems to fetch a default US keyboard layout from somewhere which I cannot figure out where it is. Without any invocation from my side Gnome assumes this US keyboard. However, I do not want to us the default US keyboard layout but the altgr-intl option.
Screenshot
So as a workaround I have to run setxkbmap -layout us -variant altgr-intl after Gnome had started. But I would like to understand how Gnome assigns the default keyboard layouts.

I still do not understand where the default keyboard layout is taken from. However, I use a workaround and created a file .keyboard in my home directory which is launched after startup of Gnome and changes the layouts according to my setkxbmap settings.
More information.

Default Keyboard after Reboot = US on German Lion

Hallo,
I upgraded my German MacBook to Lion (I downloaded the update in Germany) and see that the default keyboard after a new start / reboot is US. (it wasn't like this with Snow Leopard).
Since my password contains some of those strange international characters, I find it difficult to log in!
After I log in (with my recovery key) everything works how it should.
Does anyone know how I can change this? Is there a setting somewhere?
thanks for helping,

Hi,
there doesnt appear to be any such option.
In the login options in Sytem Preferences/Users and Groups there are available:
automatic login deactivated/activated
login window shows list of users/name and password
show buttons for sleep, reboot and power off
show input source in login window
show help for passwords
show menu for fast user change as ...
use VoiceOver in login window
(I'm freely translating from German here, obviously.)
none of which helps me get the login keyboard to be German.

Default keyboards folder in illustrator CC not showing- no .kys file in apps folder

default keyboards folder in illustrator CC not showing- no .kys file in apps folder, The keyboard shorcuts in Illustrator -Edit-shorcuts, don't show default shortcuts either...should I reinstall Illustrator CC?

If you are on a Mac, then the default keys should be in Adobe Illustrator CSX/Presets/en_US/Keyboard Shortcuts. If it's not there then a reinstall would be in order possibly running the cleaner tool in between.

Flash MX: default keyboard layout

My apologies if this topic had a better place to be posted.
I'm using Flash MX 2004 7.2. I use both English and Japanese keyboard layouts in my OS.
Every time I open Flash MX 2004, the default keyboard layout turns to Japanese. This only happens in Flash MX - in Dreamweaver MX and Fireworks MX, the keyboard layout defaults to English no problem.
Has anyone encountered this issue before?
Any suggestions would be appreciated.
TIA

It sounds like it could be a Flash problem. You might want to also ask your question in the support forums run by the maker of the program:
http://www.macromedia.com/cfusion/webforums/forum/index.cfm?forumid=15
You also might want to ask your question in a more appropriate Apple forum, like "Using Mac OS X Tiger." This one is for "Universal Access" questions.

Default Keyboard input change in using roaming Profile on different Win 7

We found a strange problem on default Keyboard setting.
We are using roaming profiles for all users.
One of our users is using two Windows 7. One Windows 7 is VDI for working out of office and another Win 7 is her local PC.
She is only using Two keyboard input: Chinese Traditional English and Chinese Traditional Pinyin.
Whenever she had used the Windows 7 VDI, when she comes back to office and use her local PC, the default Keyboard input will automatically change to Chinese Traditional Pinyin.
The user said she had not changed any default keyboard input in the VDI of local PC.
Is there anything we can do for this issue?

Reset default keyboard in IOS 8

I've lost the word choice horizontal bar across the top of the keyboard when typing a new message . I had previously installed a new keyboard thru the app store on iTunes but didn't like it and then deleted it. The keyboard I'm using now is the English QWERTY. How do I reset the default keyboard. I am using 8.1.1 on my iPhone 5S.
Many thanks in advance.

To turn on the predictive word feature use:
Settings > General > Keyboards > Predictive and turn this On.

Default keyboard layout

Hi, I'm hoping someone can help me.
I need to set the default keyboard to irish for user accounts. I can't seem to do it! when a user logs in they default to british. once logged in they can change it forevermore, but only on that machine. if they go to another one it defaults back to british.
HELP!

Similar problem here. After migrating from xserve 10.4.10 to an xserve 10.5.4 the default keyboard layout is U.S. instead of what the users had before (mostly german-swiss).
It would be very nice, if someone could give a hint of how to manipulate com.apple.systempreferences.plist to set a default keyboard layout.
Thanks in advance.

Default keyboard language and MacOS system language

After I set default keyboard language to English it is automatically applied by macOS as a default language for the whole system. Is there a way to set English as a default language only for the keyboard, but at the same time set Ukrainian to be a default system language?

Alex_Pros wrote:
I want keyboard to open with English as a default language
I assume you need to have both US and Ukrainian on the list at system preferences/keyboard/input sources, right?
Try removing Ukrainian from this list, restarting (which should give you US as default), and then adding Ukrainian again.
If that doesn't work, try going to system preferences/language & region and using the plus button to make some language below the line (for which nothing is localized) like Afrikaans the preferred language, with Ukrainian second. This should keep US as the default keyboard and Ukrainian as the OS language.

How do I change the default windows when starting indesign

The default when I start up Indesign is “only the applications bar is showing”. I would like to be able to change the default to having the Tools and Control showing as well as a few windows like pages, styles, swatches, hyperlinks – not ALL of the windows. I’ve tried setting this up when I first open up Indesign and no documents open. But it still changes back to the default whrn I reopen Indesign. Is there anyway to change this?

launch indesign--open and position the panels you want--then go to the workspace menu and save your workspace--then, when you launch Indesign it will appear like your saved workspace

Adobe Premiere Pro Help | Default keyboard shortcuts in CS6

This question was posted in response to the following article: http://helpx.adobe.com/premiere-pro/using/default-keyboard-shortcuts.html

I guess I should have said that I've already been looking, First, slowly scrolling and going through the entire keyboard shortcuts list, then, over the past three days, searching on google for 'end' 'timeline' 'beginning' 'playhead' and various other combinations of these and other keywords in searches not only on Google, but in the actual Help and User Manual for Premiere CS6. Not to be ended there, because I have been searching, now on my fourth day of intense searching also taking YouTube videos, and many of the excellent forums for Premiere online. I guess I should have mentioned the hundreds of dead ends that I've come across in this search, but all paths seem to be leading away rather than leading to the simple answer I am looking for. I did find references to moving the playhead, to clips, markers, last place, and many others but none for moving the playhead to the beginning or the end of the timeline. My searchs even brought results for the beginning and the end of time, but I hope I can find the answer before then.
Is there a keyboard shortcut for moving the playhead to the beginning or the end of the timeline?
TIA,
Ken
