How to change default language in an existing document?

I have created several documents, all with tables in them (lots of text in tables). All of these were created when the default language was English. As I am typing all of these documents in Australian English (same as British English) I am getting lots of red underlines on word that Pages thinks are incorrectly spelt.
How can I do a global change of the text to Australaian English (or any other language for that matter). If I do Select All within the document it does not select the text in the tables so for the moment it looks like I have to select each cell individually to change the language. This will take hours, Surely there is a simpler method to to a global language change.

Update all the styles after you have changed the language.
Insert the cursor in the sample style > Styles Drawer > click on the red triangle next to the style > Redefine Style from selection
Save your document. If you need this for future documents save as a template.
You should have set your system language to Australian English and it would have defaulted to that.

Change the default language of an existing SAP Portal

Hi,
Our SAP Portal works with two languages, Spanish and English. The default language is Spanish, but since the company is becoming more international, we want to set the default language to English. Need to know if you can change the default language of an existing SAP Portal.
Specifically, it is the case of the standard UWL notifications, which are sent by mail in Spanish. For tasks defined in the application, the message is personalized and sent in two languages at once. However, when the task is not defined, notifications arrive in the default language, which is now Spanish. Could anyone tell me if I change it?
Thanks for the help!

Dear Marciano
I hope you are well and many thanks for using the SAP Discussion Forums .
In relation to the scenario that you have described regarding the language setting for EP and the UWL.
The language that the portal is displayed in depends on the following heirarchy, with the languages at the top of the list taking precedenceover those at the bottom:
1.Component (iview) language (defined in the portalapp.xml)
2.Portal Mandatory language (defined in the prtDefault.properties)
3.User language (defined in the user#s profile).
4.Request language (defined by the browser).
5.Portal Default language (defined in the prtDefault.properties)
6.System Default language (default locale defined by the OS).
So for example, if you have your portal user language (as in point 3)set to Czech, but the language of the iView that is the logon page (as in point 1) set to English, that logon page will be displayed in English.
Regarding the navigation path for the prtDefault.properties kindly refer to the SAP Documentation outlined below which provides a detailed summary and walkthrough regarding the language settings.

How to change default Ovi Player store ...

Hi,
I need help from you people.
I had installed Ovi Player. Whenever I try to open Ovi Player, the default store gets’ open is "India". I change the store location to "Germany". When I do the search for particular music, it will again take me to "India" store instead of "Germany" store. In addition, most annoying is that I have to re-login but my user id and password will not work as its different store. Also when I go via music.nokia.de and try to login, it open Ovi player and since default location is "India", it takes me to India store and my login credentials do not work.
I ask Nokia care on how to change default Ovi Player Store location but they are unable to provide any good answer.
I already un-install / re-installed but won't work. Do any of you have answer to my problem? I want my default Ovi Player location to be "Germany" instead of "India".
More information, my regional settings have location as “Germany” and language as “English”.
Please help.
Thanks for your response.

I had got message from Nokia on how to correct this issue. This had solved the problem. Below is the mail from them ...
Dear Chakraborty,
Thank you for your response.
This error is sometimes caused by a corrupted MDataStore.db3 file used by the Ovi Player. This file will need to be deleted with the Ovi Player closed. Then open the player and the datastore file will be rewritten by the application:
Close Ovi Music Player and delete the MDataStore.db3 file:
Vista C:\Users\<user>\AppData\Local\Nokia\Nokia Data Store\DataBase\MDataStore.db3
XP C:\Documents and Settings\<user>\Local Settings\Application Data\Nokia\Nokia Data Store\DataBase\MDataStore.db3
Both of these locations are in hidden folders. So, to view them users will need to:
Open Windows Explorer > Tools > Folder Options > View > Show Hidden Files and Folders
Once Ovi Music is opened again the MDataStore.db3 file will be rewritten to this folder.
  After that manipulation try to install the Ovi Player once again:

You have to be aware that this will only change labels if you edit before adding quiz slides: Preferences, Quiz, Default Labels. You will have to edit the labels, choosing another language will not change them automatically.

Change default language for SharePoint Online Sub-Site

Hi Guys,
Am trying to create multiple sub-sites using a custom site template in SharePoint Online. The default language of the Site Template is English. But I want to create sites for difference languages.
There is a option to setup multiple languages on the site and change the browser preferences. But we want that anyone irrespective of the language, should see the site in the language it has been configured for, For instance France site should display data
in French irrespective of any user see it.
To accomplish this, I was trying to find if there is a way to change the default language of the site after we create it.
Can some one give me an idea if we can achieve this behavior or if there an alternate to do it ?
Thanks,
Nutan

Hi,
According to your post, my understanding is that you want to change the default site language.
There is no supported way to change the default language of a site collection, once it has been created.
There is a way to change it by modifying the content database using SQL Management Studio(though it is not supported), you can refer to the article below to change the default language in an existed site.

Change default language at site creation?

Hi,
I have a SharePoint farm consisting of three site collections. All of these have been created with English language. A Norwegian language pack has been installed.
Is there any way to change the default language when a new site is created? More specific: when a user decides to create a new site (not site collection), I want the language dropdown in the form to be Norwegian, not English. Is this possible?
Thanks!

How to change Marketplace Language. I don't want M...

When I 1st use Lumia 800. the Marketplace language I saw is English.After I sign in Window Live ID and select the marketplace country to Malaysia .The marketplace language change to Malay. Who know how to change back. How to change Marketplace Language. I don't want Malay Language~~~.. I check from nokie FAQ , there say can;t to change back. Malaysia country is using Malay only... How can like that, it much put two language in Malaysia Marketplace .( Malay and English ), like this people just can choose/ select language which they want .
Solved!
Go to Solution.

reason for the malay language is because the email you are linking with is default to malaysia as your location, and msia marketplace doesnt have full apps collection.
so two things i did:-
(1) Reset your phone to default setting, start all setting all over
(2) Create a new window live account, and not choosing malaysia as base country
(3) Same goes to market place,choose an english spoken country (like U.S) as your default country when you click into market place for the first time.
and Voila, everything is now in english. Sweet.

hi,
how to change default save as location in acrobat 7.0?

Why is Acrobat involved in this process at all? Why don't you save directly the pdf from your email program directly where you want it to be? Acrobat is just adding another step to this process.

How to change default ringtone to a custom one for IPhone 5.

I have gone into settings through Sounds made the change, but it does not register as the default even though the ringtone chosen has the checkmark beside it. Ringtone still lists the factory default under sounds & vibrations.
I am able to customize ringtones for individual contacts.

Hi,
How to change default value in a table
I have a table TEST which has 2 fields CODE of Datatype VARCHAR2(10) and Indicator as VARCHAR2(1).
I want to change the default value using ALTER TABLE TEST of field Indicator to 'I'.
ALTER TABLE test
MODIFY (indicator DEFAULT 'I');
Incidentally, INDICATOR is a keyword in Oracle, so you may have problems using it as a column name. If so, you'll have to enclose the column name in double-quotes, and be careful to use capital letters inside the quotes.
