How can I change languages as easily on Air as on the iPhone?

Hello,
I need to change language quickly as I am working, and often switch languages mid-sentence if I am communicating with other bi-lingual users. It's easy on my iPhone - just tap the 'world' icon - but I can't work it out on the the MacBook Air. I'm using Maverick. I don't want to switch off the auto-correct as it's useful when it's working for the appropriate language. There must be an easy way. Any suggestiongs?
Thanks,
A

I assume you are talking about spellcheck, right?  Unfortunately the only way to easily change the dictionary is via the menu Edit > Spelling and Grammar > Show Spelling and Grammar.
Whether someone has developed an applescript or automator action which can do this via a keyboard shortcut I don't know.
You can ask Apple for a new feature via

    If you are talking about the menus and dialogues, go to system prefs/language & text/language and move Czech to the top of the list and then logout/login.
    If you are talking about the keyboard, let us know.

  • I don't remember my old Apple ID and I closed my email account that I was using for my old Apple ID. Now, how can I change my icloud id on my Ipad. The old icloud id is still on my Ipad.

    I don't remember my old Apple ID and I closed my email account that I was using for my old Apple ID. Now, how can I change my icloud id on my Ipad. The old icloud id is still on my Ipad.

    ChrisJ4203,
    Thank you for the help.  Every app on my phone was downloaded using my old I-tunes ID.  I just hope that they will re-download under my new ID because I still can't change it on my phone.  In order to change to the new ID it says I have to sign out from the old ID and change to the new one.  My problem is that I don't remember my password to be able to sign out from my old ID.  Then the phone says it can change my password through e-mail and I  agree but I never get an e-mail at my old address or the new one.

  • HT4623 How can I change my Icloud account on my ipad to the one I use on my iphone?

    How can I change my Icloud account on my ipad to the one I use on my iphone?
    For example on my iphone I log in with a yahoo account.  My ipod was originally set up with another e-mail account (which I can't remember the password).  I want to use the yahoo e-mail and the password associated with it to log on to both devices.

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    Firstly, you need to change your details with Apple,  Start here, change your country if necessary and go to manage your account.
    In order to change your Apple ID or password for your iCloud account on your iOS device, you need to delete the account from your iOS device first, then add it back using your updated details. (Settings > iCloud, scroll down and hit "Delete Account")
    Providing you are simply updating your existing details and not changing to another account, when you delete your account, all the data that is synced with iCloud will also be deleted from the device (but not from iCloud), but will be synced back to your device when you login again.
    In order to change your Apple ID or password for your iCloud account on your computer, you need to sign out of the account from your computer first, then sign back in using your updated details. (System Preferences > iCloud, click the sign out button)
    In order to change your Apple ID or password for your iTunes account on your iOS device, you need to sign out from your iOS device first, then sign back in using your updated details. (Settings > iTunes & App store, scroll down and tap your ID)
    If you are using iMessages or FaceTime, you will also need to log out and into your ID there too.

  • How can I change fullscreen background color, so that it is the same when viewing on mac and iPad? I want this to be able to use MathType in widget text.

    How can I change fullscreen background color, so that it is the same when viewing on mac and iPad? I want this to be able to use MathType in widget text.
    As an example, html widget has white background on iPad, and black on mac. The same goes for interactive widget.
    The MathType text inserted is inserted as a image, and will have the same color when in fullscreen as when not. So I need the textcolor to be the same in both views. Anyone know how to fix this?

    We're still not communicating. This is why I wanted an example .iba.
    Here's a re-creation of my own, going off what you described. You said "all html widgets and all gallery widgets" have this problem. So I inserted a blank HTML widget and a blank Gallery widget, and typed into both. Inserted a MathType equation into both. I don't see any difference when I preview it on my Mac compared to the preview on the iPad. I want to help, but I can't help if I can't duplicate the issue.
    I've attached the screen shots and the .iba file [link to .iba file].
    Feel free to email me directly at bobm at dessci dot com. If you're uncomfortable giving some information here, tell me anything you want in email. I work for the "MathType company", Design Science.

  • Hello, how can I  change language? example after effects

    _

    By default the Creative Cloud application will utilize the language settings for your operating system.  You can find information on what your current language setting is by review the following documentation:
    Mac OS: OS X: Changing the language shown in menus and dialogs
    Windows 7 and 8: Install or change a display language
    If you wish to install the software included in your Creative Cloud Membership to a different language then you will need to make this adjustment in the Creative Cloud application.  Full details on how this can be accomplished can be found at Adjust the install language | Creative Cloud applications | CCM.
    If after adjusting the language and installing the Adobe Creative applications you discover them to be in trial mode then it is possible your subscription may not include the requested language.  You can find more details at Creative Cloud products launch in trial mode on non-English operating systems | CCM, CS6.
    Finally you can check if you have an English only or Multi-language membership under you account at http://www.adobe.com/.  For more information on how to manage your membership please see Manage your membership | Creative Cloud
