IOS keyboard language

Why doesn't iOS 8 keep track of which language is used for each particular message thread? The keyboard selection is global; if you are in a thread using the Portuguese keyboard (e.g., exchanging texts with my Portuguese cousin), Portuguese remains the keyboard if you switch to a different thread (e.g., answer a message from an American cousin).
It'd be nice if the keyboard selection stuck with the thread, not the global Messages app.

  • TS3280 How can i enable both paired bluetooth and ios keyboard input at the same time?

    How can i enable both paired bluetooth and ios keyboard input at the same time?
    This is needed for the app im working on. Need some user input via keypad as well as scanner input via a paired bluetooth scanner.

    You probably should not be using a keyboard bluetooth profile for a scanner, I am not a developer for apple so do not know the location for you to find out the correct profile you should be using for an input device that is not a keyboard. Sorry,
    I am sure if you navigate the apple developer site you will probaly finmd what you're looking for.

  • I get redirected to a different site based either on my locale, keyboard language or product language. How can I prevent this from happening

    There are several sites that I access where I type in www.xxxxx.com or support.mozilla.com expecting to get the American site but due either to my "locale" which is set to Germany or my "Keyboard Language" which is set to German, I get automatically redirected to the German site. As all my software is in English but I have a German Laptop, I wish to go to the English sites. Conversely there are sites where I type in www.xxxx.de wishing to go to the German site, but get re-directed to the UK Site because my software is in English. Many of these sites then allow you to chose the country you want thereby correcting this behaviour, but unfortunately there are a host of sites whose programmers have not foreseen the need for this and the sites are thus unreachable. An example of this is www.proidee.de which automatically redirects me to the UK Site.
    What I am looking for is some way to prevent these sites from imposing their will over my decisions. I see this as a direct infringement of my rights.

    Try running several malware scanners. It is best to run several as each will pick up things that the others miss. Some scanners you can try are:
    * [http://www.malwarebytes.org/mbam.php Malwarebytes]
    * [http://www.superantispyware.com/ SUPERAntiSpyware]
    * [http://www.lavasoft.com/products/ad_aware_free.php Ad-Aware]
    * [http://www.microsoft.com/windows/products/winfamily/defender/default.mspx Windows Defender]
    * [http://www.safer-networking.org/en/home/index.html Spybot S&D]
    If the above malware scanners do not find any malware or can not clear it, you should consider posting in one of these forums for specialized malware removal help:

  • How do i remove an Update notification? I do not want to update to the latest iOS (Asian languages) which is useless to me and I don't want to waste space on my iPad. I want to be able to "Select All" instead of doing each update individually.

    That's quite a title I created!  Sorry, I've never submitted a question before! ☺ I do not want to update to the latest iOS (Asian language stuff) which is useless to me and I don't want to waste space on my iPhone 4S and iPad 5. I want to be able to "Select All" updates instead of doing each update individually. It's a real pain in the you-know-what. Does anyone know how to I remove this notification (and any other updates I'm not interested in) from the Updates page? Thanks so much everyone!

    Thanks so much for your time!  I wish you had a more positive answer, but c'est la vie!  I hate the fact that I cannot control my apps and feel like a hostage of the developer(s). I've read other forums and some responses were "then delete the app!"  Lame answer!  So thank you so much for your respectful and insightful reply!  Cheers.

  • New feature request: Having the possibility to use different keyboard language on multiple monitors.

    I would love to see a new feature to allow the use of different keyboard language on multiple monitors with the same desktop mac.
    Ex.: On dual monitor desktop, use english keyboard on the left screen and french keyboard on the right screen.
    So I wouldn't have to switch keyboard language all the time!
    Thanks.

  • Keyboard language changed only in Firefox not other programmes

    I have Firefox in English but I use a Spanish keyboard, meaning some keys like question marks or quotation marks are in different places, there are accents, a key for ç, etc. It has always worked normally but today, while the keyboard is working correctly with all other programmes in Firefox it works as if the settings were changed to an English (I think) keyboard.
    I don't have that problem with Chrome though, it's just Firefox. How is that possible (add question mark here, I can't guess what key I'im supposed to use for it).
    I haven't changed anything in the settings, so the only possibility could be some kind of shortcut I've accidentally pressed, even though I don't know how that's even possible, as I assumed you can't have several keyboard language settings selected at the same time depending on the programme you're using.
    I type in different languages so this is terribly annoying! Thanks for any help.

    It is possible that you have switched the keyboard layout by accident by using the key sequence to rotate the layout.
    * http://support.microsoft.com/kb/258824 - How to change your keyboard layout
    Windows remembers the keyboard layout setting per application and you may have changed the keyboard layout by accident via a keyboard shortcut.
    * http://support.microsoft.com/kb/306993 - HOW TO: Use the Language Bar in Windows XP
    * http://windows.microsoft.com/en-US/windows7/The-Language-bar-overview The Language bar (overview)
    Make sure that you have the Language bar visible on the Windows Taskbar
    * You can do that via the right-click context menu of the Taskbar: Toolbars > Language Bar
    * Check the keyboard language (keyboard layout) setting for the application that has focus via the icon on the Language bar
    * You need to do that while Firefox has focus because Windows remembers the keyboard layout setting per application
    * The default key combination to rotate the layout is the Ctrl+Shift or Alt+Shift combination that is used in Firefox for menu items, so it is quite possible to change the layout accidentally.
    * To avoid an unintentional switch, assign a specific key sequence (Alt/Ctrl+Shift+number) to select keyboard layouts and remove the key combination to rotate layouts (Alt+Shift or Ctrl+Shift)
    * Control Panel > Regional and Language Options > Keyboards and Languages > Change keyboards > Advanced key settings > Change key sequence

    My question is I want to buy MacBook Pro special specifications but found several languages ​​at the option of the keyboard I want a picture if you choose the keyboard language is Arabic as well please, I want a picture of the plate you include the keyboard letters in Arabic, English or Arabic only together?

    The only photo I could find of a 'genuine' Apple Arabic keyboard (NOT a keyboard cover/skin):
    It's from an older MacBook, it looks like, but I imagine that the MacBook Pro keybaord would be similar.

  • Is there a way to share IOS keyboard shortcuts between devices?

    Is there a way to share IOS keyboard shortcuts between devices? Although I use Text Expander on Lion and it is great, I think it would be very useful if Apple allowed syncing of keyboard shortcuts between the Mac and IOS devices via iCloud. It would be great to set these up on the Mac and have them available on both my iPad and iPhone.

    Now built directly into the iOS:

  • IPhone SMS - request for additional keyboard language

    I live in South Africa .
    Vodacom has rolled out the 3G iPhone here through Vodafone.
    I am writing to you as one of 3 million+ people who speak Afrikaans.
    Please can you add Afrikaans to the iPhone keyboard language ?
    I write all my smses in Afrikaans and am forced to switch off the keyboard language , as Afrikaans isnt there. This is very frustrating and I would love to be able to type as fast on a iPhone as advertised. Ive seen the video showing how great the iPhone keyboard works but can unfortionately not experiance it for myself.
    Please Apple , hear my cry .. Add Afrikaans to your iPhone Language selection in future updates.

  • Unwanted keyboard language switch when Firefox/Thunderbird is selected

    Here is a problem that I think I've had in the past, but I just can't recall how I resolved it, or find any references to it in the forum archives:
    Recently I reconfigured the keyboard language input menu because I switched to a different keyboard; it now has U.S. Extended, Norwegian and a 3rd map that I've defined myself. I can mostly switch quite all right between these (and the one I've defined myself works, too), but I have one very annoying problem:
    Whenever I select a Mozilla Firefox or Thunderbird window, the language setting switches to U.S. Extended (if a different one was selected.) That is, if I work in a different application with e.g. my custom map selected, then start Firefox, I notice that the flag icon changes and that I get the US layout. I can then switch back to a different one and work with the corresponding layout in Firefox. If, however, I raise another application's window, then go back to Firefox, I find that language is once again set to U.S. Extendended. The same thing happens with Thunderbird.
    Any idea what is wrong?

    I haven't read your code, but can make a guess at what's going wrong. Checkboxes do behave in a weird manner depending upon whether you have selected one or many.
    Assuming this is the statement where you are generating the checkbox :
    <input type="checkbox" name="checkBoxName" value="<%= someValue %>">
    What you could do is read the checked checkBoxes in an array :
    String[] values = request.getParameterValues("checkBoxName");
    int sizeOfValues = values.length;
    Then use the sizeOfValues to perform your delete action :
    if (sizeOfValues==1)
         performDelete();
    else
         for (int i=0; i<sizeOfValues(); i++)
              performDelete();
    Hope this technique works.

  • Keyboard language linked to contact

    It's not clear to me how to post ideas or feature improvements for Apple, but there is a thing I would like to see on my IPhone for sure. I have conversations with people in different languages, and therefore have 3 or 4 input languages enabled. However, the IPhone doesn't remember which languages I use for which contact so when I'm texting or emailing I'm constantly switching between keyboards.
    Wouldn't it be cool/possible if the iPhone remembers the keyboard languages for individual contacts so that when you address them the keyboard pops up in the language you want to address them? Shouldn't be too difficult as it can look at messages already sent or link it to a contact person. Does anyone know if this is an existing idea or if Apple is considering a feature like this?

    Sounds like an interesting idea. Submit your feedback to Apple here:
