Different Input Sources Problem

Hi guys.
I have a very strange problem with the Input Sources.
There are English and Russian input sources installed at my MacBook Pro (Mountain Lion, 10.8.4).
I have "Allow a different input source for each document" setting enabled however it doesn't work correctly.
E.g. I have russian layout active at Skype and Adium and english layout at iTerm2. I switch from iTerm2 to Adium and when I switch back there is russian layout is active at iTerm2! **** it.
I don't know why it happens and I've already tried a lot of suggestions from the net. Nothing helps.
Kindly suggest what else I should check at my Mac.

Do you have the same problem when switching among Apple apps? All those you mention are from elsewhere and it's possible their support for this feature is imperfect.

Firefox on OS X 10.6.8: How to have a different input source for different tabs in one window (the option "Allow a different one for each document" is on)

Currently, firefox 29 keeps one language for different tabs in one window. Different windows can have different input sources...

Thank you for your reply!
I think I've accidentally marked the problem as solved, but in fact it's not.
What is needed is that the firefox remember different input methods (languages, for instance, En or Fr) for different tabs so that when I switch between several tabs I don't need to change the layout.
Chrome remembers my language settings for each tab, so it's not always one language for all the same tabs there. I haven't found such an option in Firefox so far.
Hope it's clear enough.
Thanks in advance.

Allow a different input source for each document

I just received my new MBP and am really happy about it. I'm a switcher so apologies in advance if this question is silly...
I use both Swedish and English keyboard maps. I can switch between them using a shortcut which is fine. However, in the International settings I thought "Allow a different input source for each document" would mean that the input source I use for a specific application will be used as long as the application is running and I don't change it, no matter what source I use in other applications.
For example: I have the English input source as default. Then I open text edit and change the source to Swedish and start typing. So far so good. I then change to another application...
Ok, it seemed that I might be able to answer this myself... as I test I noticed the following:
If I start typing using a source in an application THEN the source is retained. If I just switch to an application, change its source the source is NOT retained and will take the previous one.
Now this is all and well as long as the application you are using actually presents you with a text area to write in. But there are many applications where this is not the case (where you open windows to type text). A really good example is an IM client. Lets say Skype for example (yes I know.. iChat). Until I actually start a chat there is no text input window (well there is one..) which means that it will pick up whatever source was used previously. If I keep all the chat windows open thats fine but as soon as I reopen a windows I might be forced to change the source again
I hope I haven't overcomplicated my question which is simply what to expect when "Allow a different input source for each document" is used (I know it doesn't say "application" there and that might actually be a hint
Many Thanks for any comments

It's not a silly question, but I don't think there is an answer either, as it's not clear exactly what that setting is supposed to do, or if it actually does something consistently for various different kinds of apps.
If you have not already done so, check the box for "show input menu in Finder" in system prefs/international/input menu, so you can see which layout is active at the top right of the Finder.

Microphone Input Source Problem

This is a real bummer. I have 4 input options on my
computer: Line-In, Microphone, External Mic, Internal Mic. (btw, I
also have Captivate version 3)
The problem comes once I launch Captivate, because as soon as
that happens, my microphone can only be recorded while the
"External Mic" input source is checked. But Input Source settings
inside Captivate only gives the selection of Line-In or Microphone,
and my System Audio is greyed out! So whenever I click record, the
default input source on my computer changes to either Line-In or
Microphone, and unchecks that "External Microphone"!!! Then I can't
record...................
Has anyone experienced this problem? Or have found a solution
to this problem??? Please help~~~

It could be this or that and hardware issues are tough to
figure out.
Did you use the audio recording level adjustment setup in
Captivate? You read a sentence and it adjusts the volume setting. A
pre-amp audio level applet.
Start by going to Control Panel and then select The Sound
options. Depending on your version of Windows, the sound control
options may have some additional options on the menubar that allow
you to pick the devices to enable. Things like WAV, Line-in, MP3,
Midi, Etc may be there. Be sure that you have the options that you
want set to enabled. Make sure that MUTE is not checked. Make sure
that the slider is at about 80-90%.
Test a sound recording with Windows Recorder. You can try the
different input devices that you mentioned.
The sound card driver is another interesting place to look.
Lots of computers use SoundMax or Realtek drivers for this (and of
course Creative, Turtle Beach and and other stand-alone sound
cards). Get the latest drivers from the manufacturer. In many cases
pressing the Dell, Lenovo, HP, Etc update button will get you what
you need. Many sound driver updates require a complete uninstall of
the sound driver software and then you must remove the sound card
driver from Control Panel -- System -- Devices. Reboot and
reinstall by picking the location of the revised driver on bootup
at hardware recognition.
In using Captivate 2, I have had no problems with my Lavalier
Shure microphone to Line-in or my USB microphone with Line-in. I
did use the Microphone settings but there was a distinct HUMMmmmm
on my machine so I tried Line-In.
I have a Vista machine that will be tested soon. Seems fine
on XP at this point. But the feedback on Vista from my microphone
manufacturers has been very positive and they note that the Vista
pre-amp is good.
Failing all of the above, look at Adobe for answers. You may
need to cal them and go through this. They may have logged an
experience report-solution that will get you going.
Please report back any solution that works so that others can
benefit from your experience.

Aelfed parser - Input Source Problem???

Hi all, i'm fairly new to all this so excuse my basic knowledge. I am incurring a really annoying problem which is preventing me from continuing working. Basically, using the following code, when I excecute the program, specifying a 'Stocks.xml' file, it returns the following error,
'Error: no protocol: Stocks.dtd"
The 'Stocks.dtd' resides in the same directory as 'Stocks.xml' and is formatted correctly.
Does anyone have any suggestions as to what could be causing this problem????
import org.xml.sax.*;
import org.xml.sax.helpers.*;
import java.io.*;
public class SAXApp {
     public static void main (String args[]) throws Exception {
          // Set the Parser: IBM XML Parser or AElfred
          String parserClass = "com.microstar.xml.SAXDriver";
          // String parserClass = "com.ibm.xml.parser.SAXDriver";
          // Create Parser Object using ParserFactory
          Parser parser = ParserFactory.makeParser (parserClass);
          // Set Parser Document Handler
          myHandler handler = new myHandler ();
          parser.setDocumentHandler (handler);
          // Create FileReader, then Input Source
          FileReader filereader = new FileReader (args[0]);
          BufferedReader bufreader = new BufferedReader (filereader);
          InputSource insource = new InputSource (bufreader);
          // InputSource insource = new InputSource (filereader);
          // Start Parsing
          try {
          parser.parse (insource);
          catch (SAXException e) {
          System.out.println("Error: "+e.getMessage());
// Event Handler
class myHandler extends HandlerBase {
     // Constructor
     public myHandler () {
     public void characters
     (char ch[], int start, int length) {
          String text = new String (ch, start, length);
          System.out.println("Character data: "+text);
     public void startElement
     (String name, AttributeList atts) {
          System.out.println ("Start Element: "+name);
     public void endElement (String name) {
          System.out.println ("End Element: "+name);
}

I seem to have come across a way to over come this problem,
Instead of using the following,
FileReader filereader = new FileReader (args[0]);
BufferedReader bufreader = new BufferedReader (filereader);
InputSource insource = new InputSource (bufreader);
parser.parse (insource);
If I just use,
parser.parser(args[0]);
It works... only using the URL starting with "file:///"
...can anyone shed any light on this.
Cheers in advance!

Sinhala - QWERTY Input Source

I am not familiar with what's included in the Unicode standard for Sinhala. I was trying to use the "Sinhala - QWERTY" input source that comes with the latest version of OS X. However, I was not able to compose some words as they are usually written in Sinhala. For example, the name of the country, Sri Lanka, is written as :
ශ්රී ලංකා
However, I was not able to construct the first letter ශ්රී. The problem was attaching the flattened U like stroke under the main letter ශ. Is there a way to do this?

What you have reproduced is exactly what I want. It is shown correctly in the browser too. However, using the "Sinhala - QWERTY" input source, which comes natively with OS X, and typing the letter sequence SRI gives me the Sinhala characters shown below:
සරි
Are you using a different input source or a different keyboard driver?

Input source (input language) changes incorrectly

Snow Leopard finally has this beautiful feature to save the input source state for every application! I've missed this very much. But... It doesn't work for me correctly.
The problem:
SnowLeo doesn't remember the input source for every application and changes randomly. Here's example: I'm opening Safari, Mail and TextEdit (all native Leo apps), writing in English in Safari + Mail and in Bulgarian in TextEdit. When switching applications the input language doesn't stay the same - after TexEdit , Safari must stay with English, but I'm writing in Bulgarian. And so on.
What I've tried:
As I said, this happens totally random, I've spent a LOT of time trying to find out some logical pattern or something, but with no luck. I tried to switch languages with mouse only, to disable the keyboard shortcut, to change the language (I've tried Canadian I think), to use different applications, to quit (almost) every process, different account an even different MacOS install on a external USB HDD!!! Funny, but on the fresh installed OS I had the same bug for 10-15 min. and then (after the same tests as before) it somehow disappeared (I think). The same was with the different account on my original HDD - the first time the problem was here, then it just wasn't here. TOTALLY unusual and with no logic at all!!!
I have some friends with Macs and everyone of us is using English and Bulgarian input layouts. And Nobody has a problem except me!
I have 15 years of computer experience (3 of them with Macs) and I'm working as a System administrator, so it's natural for me to troubleshoot all kind of problems, but after month I gave up on this!
The MacMini and the MacOS are both legal with nothing strange connected.

I use 2 keyboard layouts : canadian french for most of my applications (Pages, Microsoft Word, etc) and US English for Photoshop because most Photoshop keyboard shortcuts don't work in canadian french.
The problem is that even if I set Photoshop to US english, it reverts to Canadian French. It usually happens when I switch applications or hide Photoshop and bring it back up again. It is very annoying and the only way I found to stop this, is to turn off "Allow a different one for each document" in the Input Sources preferences pane. I thought the purpose of this option was to assign a different input source or keyboard layout to different applications.

HT5140 I did put another language in input source, and keyboard shortcut, but when I close this window, after opening the mail window, where do I see different language to click on?

You switch keyboards by going to the " flag" menu at the top right of the screen.

Input sources CONSTANTLY lost after reboot!!!

Since installing Yosemite (currently on 10.10.2, as per "About this Mac"), almost every time I restart, reboot, or simply turn off and then on my computer, I lose all my input sources. This is particularly annoying, as I work in humanities and constantly use about 8 different keyboards. Can something be done about this, for heaven's sake? I remember this happening on extremely rare occasions before (usually after the computer froze and had to be rebooted), but this seems to be a major problem since I installed Yosemite.
Many thanks in anticipation!

Do a backup.
Quit the application System Preferences.
Go to Finder and select your user/home folder. With that Finder window as the front window, either select Finder/View/Show View options or go command - J. When the View options opens, check ’Show Library Folder’. That should make your user library folder visible in your user/home folder. Select Library. Then go to Preferences/com.apple.systempreferences.plist. Move the .plist to your desktop.
Restart the computer, open the application and test. If it works okay, delete the plist from the desktop.
If the application is the same, return the .plist to where you got it from, overwriting the newer one.
Thanks to leonie for some information contained in this.

Not able to edit the report created on different data source.....

I have a query regarding Report in OBIEE - reports developed from BI Publisher are specific to data source on which they have been created ??
i have a sample report that was created on different data source, i have the corresponding RPD also. I changed the data source according to my DB and when i try to update/edit the report,
on Analytics for adding a new column, it is generating a seperate new Query from QueryBuilder for that additional cloumn rather than adding up the new query with the previous one(existing report query). Is it because of mismatch of data source on which report had been created and on which it is being update ?? if it is the case, where do i need to make changes related to JDBC connection or others ??
when i try to create a new sample data set and try to update it, it adds up the extra edited things to original query and works perfectly fine. can ny 1 help me for the same ??

How do I add more channels to my input source?

I'm trying to record my son's band on a iBook in the rehearsal studio, and would like to also do this type of recording on my iMac here at home, so how do I add more channels to my input source for simultaneous multi-track recording. Right now I am only getting 2 mono and 1 stereo channels.
Ultimately I would like to add the maximum amount (probably 8 tracks), and still be able to record simultaneously with at least one guitar, one bass, one vocal mike, and the drums on one mike...
According to Hangtimes/Garage Door website, this is a possibility, but first I must create more channels.
Please help. THANKS...

My input source is a Tascam US-144 USB Interface that has 2 mic in's, and 2 line in's for guitar/bass.
I would like to separately record each input on different channels simultaneously.
You might also want to check out the M-Audio NRV10, which is a hybrid analog mixer + firewire audio interface (with I think around 10 simultaneously available separate channels), which makes it very "band friendly" for both rehearsal and recording.

How to restore the languages in the input sources under 'Language and Text'

Dear all,
Recently, I am trying to free up my disk space on my macbook and I downloaded this software call Monolingual. Basically, it removes languages that you do not use to free up the disk space.
However, I accidentally remove the language that I use which is Japanese and now it seems like I cannot find it anywhere under the input sources of language and text.
Does anybody know how I can restore everything back to normal?
Thanks in advance.
Cheers,
Alfred

I think you will have to reinstall your OS. If you are running Yosemite, see
OS X Yosemite: Reinstall OS X
Best to avoid Monolingual and simlar "cleaning" utilties if possible, it is too easy to make mistakes that destroy parts of you system.
Your problem has nothing to do with your hardware, so in the futue it would be best to use the software forums for similar questions:

How to have same keyboards input source in Mac and Windows???

I run Windows over Parallels Desktop
Can anybody help?
Thank you

Can I use an AirPort Extreme Base Station "n"
Yes.
and if so, will my MacBook work with this at maximum download / upload speed (i.e. equivalent to the cable)
The speed of your internal network generally is much much faster than the speed of your internet connection. Unless he has an internet connection faster than approx 6Mbps then even dropping down to the old 802.11b Airport would not seen any decrease in speed of downloads etc...
and will my brother's PC's also be able to connect?
If his PC is 802.11b/g-compliant, it shouldn't have any problems connecting to the AirPort base station.
Or is there another Airport base station?
The other AirPorts would work, but the AirPort Express & older 802.11g AirPort Extreme base stations have a max. range of 150 feet.
OR-- should I head down to "Generic Computer Store" and just by a wireless router (WiFi)(think that's what they call them) and connect this to his cable modem? IF SO WILL THAT WORK FOR MY MAC?
That is always an option as well, especially since he will be the primary user throughout the year. I'd suggest going with a brand name, like Belkin, D-Link, or Linksys for the wireless router choice.

Implementing Logical FACT & Logical dimension from 2 different data sources

Hi Gurus,
Here is my situation. We have 2 Different Data sources. One is SRMW and the other one is a different source. What we are trying to implement here is we wanted to create logical dimensions and logical facts as well in the BMM layer. For ex: w_day_d from SRMW and other time dimension from another source makes a logical table. And similarly a fact from SRMW and and another similar fact (Same data types though) will make a logical fact in the BMM.
I have done the POC of it, but the only problem is that i was able to fetch the data from only one data source not the other source.
Any suggestions ??
Thanks in Advance.

What I already mentioned is that you have to create multiple logical table sources and set the fragmentation content on each logical table source.
When you have two physical tables for the product dimension, for example DIM_PRODUCT_A and DIM_PRODUCT_B, you must add them to your logical table Products as two separate logical table sources and map all columns to the corresponding logical table columns on the Column Mapping tab.
Hereafter you should go to the Content tab of each logical table source and describe what content is in the logical table source.
For example for the logical table source of DIM_PRODUCT_A:
"BM"."Product"."Product Name" <= 'Product 2'
and for the logical table source of DIM_PRODUCT_B.
"BM"."Product"."Product Name" >= 'Product 3'
Then you must also check "This source should be combined with other sources at this level"
When you run a query in Answers only on the product table, two queries will be generated to get values from both tables.
Regards,
Stijn

How to get input source line number

I wrote a XSLT transformation that checks the input XML for errors.
When the transformer finds a problem, it can terminate with <xsl:message terminate="yes">, which outputs the line number within the transformer XML source. I do so in my implementation to indicate errors.
But i need to output the line number of the input source, not that of the transformer source, because this is the location of the error.
Anybody knows how to do this?
How can i get the current line number of the input source XML text?

Hello Fritz!
XALAN reads the entire input file (SAX) before starting with transformation.
So overriding the input stream is no way to find this line number.
I think this would have to be a built-in XSLT functionality within the tag "xsl:message".
