How to translate into English Apple China support page joke for non-Chinese

In China there are many thousands of English speaking non-Mandarin/Cantonese inhabitants amongst the billion+ natives - it would be very prudent of Apple to support cultural foreigners with an English alternative radio button or two on Chinese web pages. Please support us when trying to find Apple support service on a Mandarin text only support pages. Ethnic myopia to believe there are only Chinese speakers/readers inside the borders of this vast land.
The Apple Extended Warranty "outside of Bejing" telephone number is TOTALLY an automated voice ONLY speaking in Mandarin, even at 8pm. Nothing of English support. What can any non-natives do? Nothing offered that we can hear of what hours of support operation. (Australia at least did go till 11pm even if it was diverted in to Engaliss "speakar" Indians guys. Still India was exc. with service, now in China it's 9-5 hours only? The pronunciation on weak low power Chinese lines that for one call ever means for keeping a hearing aid by the phone.
My experience with Mac sellers here (nothing like a western dealership here thankyou) in Shanghai show only interest in selling more and giving less than lip sync for support service locations/addresses/tel contacts. That is if one can bridge the language barrier most of the huge electronic gadgets sales centers personel to be spasmodically understood - a very frustrating land to bring an Apple computer into.
Doesn't anyone on the Apple CEO board ever visit China and "go native" to experience real world problems?
Apple heros and Applettes in Apple Genesis land : support English-only readers on your foreign language pages - at least show a translation service radio button or someting other than Mandarinic hieroglyphs, even Pin Yin would be a start. Apple speak of a 'global' policy, please support the tens of thousands of English only speakers in the business community, the teachers and travellers in these foreign countries. iPod sales go through the roof here, but finding English based extended warranty support is like something invisible on another planet.
So after a real world complaint - will Apple do anything contructive, can anyone supply solutions? Cannot downoad/update anything; Safari, Explorer both 'blink' only at every atempt, also I wish to locate all iTunes files into one place. Instructing iTunes 'Advanced' section will not transfer the 2 gigs on the G5 across to my dedicated iTunes only 230GB HD. Maybe someone can supply an answer, thanks.
G5 iMac; 2 GHz PowerPC; 1 GB DDR SDRAM; 160HD combo   Mac OS X (10.4.7)   And a G3 ibook with the dual OS9/OSX partitioned startup operating systems

For extended warranty support, try going to:
Apple Computer Trading (Shanghai) Co. Ltd. Room 1201, Lippo Plaza, 222, Huai Hai Zhong Lu, Shanghai 200021, P.R.C.
Try to learn some Chinese, too. I'm sure that's along the lines of what you might suggest to a Chinese immigrant to Australia who doesn't speak English, can't read the Apple Australia web site and complains that because there are 1.2 billion Chinese in the world and only 12 million Australians, the Australian site should have a Chinese translation radio button.
Good luck!

  • I would like to know how do I install the brazilian keyboard into macbook air, keyboard with accents (Portuguese Language), I tried so many times how to put into it (Macbook Air). So, thanks for now! I'm waiting for it.

    I would like to know how do I install the brazilian keyboard into macbook air, keyboard with accents (Portuguese Language), I tried so many times how to put into it (Macbook Air). So, thanks for now! I'm waiting for it.

    After you go to system preferences/keyboard/input sources as suggested by sberman, click on the + button and scroll down to Portuguese and select that.  Over at the right you will see the choices Brazilian, Brazilian abnt, Portuguese.  You might want to add all three to see which you like best.
    The "Brazilian" layout is pretty useless.  It is identical to the US layout and the only way to make accents is via the option key shortcuts:  option + n, then o gives you õ.
    The Brazilian abnt and Portuguese layouts have dead keys for adding accents over at the right edge of the keyboard.  But these may not match what is printed on your keys.
    You may prefer to stay with the US layout.  On that you can get accented letters by just holding down the base letter and selecting what you want from the popup menu that appears.  Or you can use the option key shortcuts.
    Another option is the layout called US International PC, which has accent deadkeys on ~, ', etc.
    Which ever layout you want to use, you must select it in the "flag" menu at the top right of the screen.
    To see which key does what for any layout, use the Keyboard Viewer:

  • Why, when MobileMe was shuttered, does Apple NOT support calendar subscriptions for iCal (Calendar)?  I upgraded to Mountain Lion and cannot migrate my Dutch, U.K., Islamic, or Catholic holiday subscriptions.

    Why, when MobileMe was shuttered, does Apple NOT support calendar subscriptions for iCal (Calendar)?
    I upgraded to Mountain Lion and cannot migrate my Dutch, U.K., Islamic, or Catholic holiday subscriptions.  I had a heck of a time getting my Detroit Tigers Baseball team schedules migrated (but Major League Baseball supported the subscriptions, so it occurred).  As I work internationally, having these calendar subscriptions on the new Calendar would be very useful.
    If one goes to the Apple site, and seeks calendars [http://www.apple.com/downloads/macosx/calendars/index1.html], they are shunted to MobileMe [https://www.icloud.com/mobileme/not_found/], with the note "MobileMe is closed. Go to iCloud."  But, I do not see how to get subscriptions from iCloud.
    Thanks.

    The problem is that many of these calendars were hosted on MobileMe. I actually tried about 20 at random, and only two worked! Not all of the failures were ex-MobileMe, some were on other servers but produced 'File Not Found'.
    Strangely, this one worked despite its URL:
    http://ical.mac.com/ical/UK32Holidays.ics
    Until the people who publish these calendars (it's not Apple, they are third-party) wake up and find alternative servers these calendars are not available.
    There may be other sources which work - try Googling.

    I am wondering how to zoom into a video in iMovie '09. For example I want to
    zoom into a certain part of the video. Is there any way to do this???

    Yes.
    If you want to see the zoom, use the Rotate, Crop, Ken Burns Tool and select the Ken Burns effect. You can set the starting and ending rectangle for your zoom.
    If you want to go directly to the zoom, use the Rotate, Crop, KenBurns Tool and select Crop. Set the rectangle to be where you want the zoom.

  • Can't access Apple's support page in FFox; getting a looped pop-up dialogue box.

    Hi,
    When I try to access Apple's support page, there's a 'Welcome back - do you have the same problem as last time?' dialogue box that I can't get past. No matter what I press (Yes or No), the page refreshes and the box comes back.
    I have deleted my cache, and gone through every step I can with Apple support over the phone, but the issue still occurs.
    What's the problem?

    This may help;

  • Does Solution Manager support Service Report for non-abap?

    Does Solution Manager support Service Report for non-abap?
    We can schedule and view reports for ABAP but for all the non-ABAP such as J2EE stack (PORTAL) we can not pull out a report.
    If the answer is yes please let me know where I can get the documentation of how to setup SLA for PORTAL or non-ABAP.
    I found a document on EWA non-abap but non for SLA.

    Hi
    actually i am in task of setting up ewa for portal.
    i had already done with abap components (ewa and sla)
    i stronly believe one of the pre-requiste to get sla is EWA.
    so i think if u can setup ewa for portal then you can get sla too.

  • HOw to translate lables & selection field titls in diff lang for ABAP query

    Hi,
    I have one report to be displayed using sap query , in that
    I need to translate the output fields lables and fields which are on selection screen of query into diff languages like FR, IT, ES and all.
    How can I do it? Can anybody help me ?
    I found one tcode SQ07 , but it will translate only selection screen fields but even the space is limited.
    Regards,
    Mrunal

    Hello,
    For this please maintain the output field labels as text symbols.
    After doing so, choose from menu GOTO->Translation.
    Now it will ask you for the language to translate into.
    Hope this answers your query.
