How do I lock my default language to English for all web pages?

I have discovered that my language keeps reverting back to French for my web pages. Not for the sites per se, but for anything that I manually enter into a field or form. And since I have my work and home computers set to sync, it keeps reverting back on both systems. It's not necessarily noticeable until I type a word that isn't in the French dictionary, and then everything gets the red underline to indicate the misspelling. I change it *every single day,* but it doesn't stick. Any suggestions?
For the record... the language does not go to French on my Yahoo Mail, but it does on Facebook and random web pages. I initially thought it was a Facebook problem, but when I tried Chrome, MSIE, and Opera (yes, Opera), there was no French issue, I narrowed it down to Firefox. Sorry.

You appear to have installed an additional French dictionary that shows as four French dictionaries in the right-click context menu under languages.
This has nothing to do with installed languages in "Tools > Options > Content > Languages" that are language choices send to the server via the HTTP request headers.
If you do not want to use those dictionaries then you can uninstall (or disable) the extension that added them.

    Hi jvm2221,
    I apologize, I'm a bit unclear on exactly what you are seeing, and/or how you are currently crating your reminders. If you are having issues creating reminders that have the correct date, you may want to make sure you are following the steps outlined in the following article:

    Hi ,
    You can add property  'request.mandatorylanguage=<your_language>'
    and property  'request.mandatorycountry'
    on file 'prtDefault.properties' located in :
    ..server0\apps\sap.com\irj\servlet_jsp\irj\root\WEB-INF\portal\system\properties\prtDefault.properties
    Then restart the server.

  • How to submit request with default language as 'American English' in other non-english language sessions.

    Dear All,
    Kindly suggest how to submit request with default language as 'American English' in other language sessions (Ex: Arabic).
    R12: 12.1.3
    The issue is we created function using 'arabic' text in it, which runs perfect in the english session, but doesnt gets value in the arabic session.

    Dear All,
    I found the solution for the above function.
    In the same function I removed the static arabic values replacing with code values from the value set.
    In my scenario there is a value set where some of these values exists, and other we can add there.
    Kindly let me know if someone was successful by using the arabic text in the coding and defaulting the language in conc prog as English.
    Thanks a lot.
    Regards,
    Afzal.

    System Language is English but all documents and reports come out in French. How do I get the system to switch all of the documents and reports to print in the English layouts?
    thx, Richard.

    Richard,
    Probably this is due to what Dan has pointed out.
    You can open the PLD template and go to Print Layout Design menu on the Top and click Display document properties.  Check the language properties.

    In Firefox 3.6 and later versions you can disable the F7 shortcut that toggles caret browsing by setting the pref accessibility.browsewithcaret_shortcut.enabled to false.
    To open the ''about:config'' page, type '''about:config''' in the location (address) bar and press the Enter key, just like you type the url of a website to open a website.
