Is changing to a language 100% identical to a install in that language

Imagine these two conditions :
1) I perform a fresh install of the Mac OS in the German Language, and afterwards I change the language into French in the system preferences
AND
2) I perform a fresh installation in French (so I choose this language during installation)
Are both cases really 100% identical, or are there maybe any differences (e.g. some differences in file names in the system folder/libraries/...) that you cannot see at first sight.
I am making some OS backups -I need some different languages-, so if 1 and 2 are indeed 100% identical, I only have to make 1 backup, but I must be sure that it's really 100%.
Thanks in advance.

Default language in identity management - please help

Hello all,
Is there a way to set a default language for every user (even users from LDAP) that login to portal ?
I know how to change the language in the 'General information' tab for a user - but i want
to set a default language for all users including LDAP users.
Currently the default value of the language is empty.
Is there a way to do it ?
Any help will be most appreciated !
Regards,
Adija

Thanks Srivastava.G
However - this article explains how to set the desired languages in the list of languages, but
it doesn't explain how to set a Default language for all users.
I can narrow the number of languages in the language list - but still the language filed for every user is empty.
We use Netweaver 2004s sp15 and the default language is - no language (which means that the
browser language is the default).
The reason i want to set a default language is that our developers used Visual Composer to
create iViews - and the errors from BackEnd R3 systems are always in English.
Even when i set the language i desire as the Master Conneciton Language - the errors are still
in English.
We've noticed that only when we set the desired language for the user - only then the error is
displayed in that language.
I even changed the properties file of the portal, used ForcedMandatory Language - still
the language field is empty.
Is there at least a way to change multiple users' language ??

How do I change page back to 100%

Went onto my email page and the print was extremely small. Could not find where to change it back to 100% like I could in internet explorer

* Click the ≡ Menu Button, then click the zoom percentage in between the '''-''' and '''+''' near the top of the menu panel.
* Hold down the '''Ctrl''' key and press '''0''' (that's zero).

Hi BulKa59,
Thats strange. Could you share a screenshot of the CC desktop app preferences panel?
May i also know the operating system on which you are working?
Try to sign out from CC desktop app and then sign in back and check if you get the option to change the language.
Also, what is your operating system language?

First of all, uninstall it with the uninstaller.
Then:
Install the ENGLISH version.
Change the language in the CC app to Korean.
Install the Korean version. (DON't uninstall the English version)
Change back the langauge in the CC app to English.
When your OS is running in English, InDesign will run in English with Korean functionality added, if your OS is running in Korean it will take the Korean User Interface, so let your OS run in English.
Every installer language will add needed plugins for the work with that language. E.g. If I install Hebrew, I get RTL functionality in German version, only if I would change the OS language it would change the language of InDesign, InDesign takes always as UI language the language of the OS if available, if not (in your case you have uninstalled English before), it takes any version which is available in the order of languages specified in the OS.
If you need to run your program in a different language than the OS but you have installed it in the language of the OS it becomes more difficult. You would have to use some system tools which are able to force a program to open with a different language. Most of those tools are freeware.

I have change my phone language to english. but the phone shows chinese language in the internet pages and with call details. how to change it. why is this occuring?

i have change my phone language to english. but the phone shows chinese language in the internet pages and with call details. how to change it. why is this occuring?

If the phone is not unlocked, let's say for example it is locked to another carrier such as at&t, when you put in the Tmobile SIM in, the phone would complain about the SIM.
Does your phone do that? If yes, then the party that sold you the iPhone4S (if you purchased it from another person) may have not done the unlocking properly, and that may explain why Tmobile is insisting on the phone being locked.
If you purchased your iPhone4S new from Apple, did you pick Tmobile, or did you choose unlocked?
If you picked the Tmobile choice, then it should come up ready to use.
If you picked the unlocked choice, then you would need to visit Tmobile to purchase a nano-SIM and usually they should be more than willing to help you, since you're paying for their service.
But as you have indicated, this phone is under AppleCare, so if it doesn't work with a supposedly good Tmobile SIM, the quickest way to fix this is to get a replacement phone. When we troubleshoot we always try the least time consuming methods first.
You may have noticed it, that a good number of unfortunate uses of the iPhone4S have had their wifi become strangely disabled after upgrade to iOS7. Your situation is the reverse, your wifi is useable but not your cellular network.
In the mean time, you can apply for a Google Voice account (see http://www.google.com/voice), and obtain a free North American telephone number. You can then download one of many free Google Talk applications. Set it up, and you will be able to call and receive phone calls using your wifi. This would be just for the transition period before you get a useable phone.
Google voice provides average voice quality calls to and from US & Canada numbers for free for 1 hour per call. You can use this as a temporary work around while you are waiting for your replacement phone.
Cheers!

My default print size has changed to 130%. I have tried everything to change it back to 100%. Any suggestions?

My Mac Mail default print size has somehow changed from 100% to 130%. I have tried everything to change it back to 100% with no resolve. Help!

I'm using Tiger right now, but I believe Leopard is the same. Select Page Setup from the Menu. Input 100% in the Scale block. Then at the top of the Page Setup window, click the arrow on Settings & change from Page Attributes to Set As Default.

How do I install a language XPI globally and make it the default language?

I am using Firefox on unices and various Linux distributions (the less common ones). Installing Firefox is easy, but it is always in English. I get most of my interfaces (gnome, libreoffice, gimp, etc) in my preferred translation simply by setting the proper locale (export LANG=xy_XY.UTF-8) before starting Xorg. I found and downloaded my preferred language pack for firefox, which comes in an XPI archive. Opening that XPI file in Firefox (via an URL of file:///path/to/file/langpack.xpi) works smoothly, the translation gets installed under the user's own profile and it shows up in the add-ons (under the new category: Languages). Unfortunately, I still see no way in Firefox preferences to set this added translation as the default. Firefox still starts with the English interface. On SeaMonkey, there is a combobox on the Appearance panel that allows me to select the language of the interface from the list of installed/available languages. I cannot find such option on the panels of Firefox. So far, I had to install a language-changer add-on to be able to set the interface to my native locale. Even though my users never need to switch to any other locales.
Q1., Once a language xpi is installed, how do I set the interface to use that language?
Q2., How do I install the language xpi and make it the system-wide default, so that all my users see Firefox starting with the native (non-English) interface?
I found a handful of description for Q2, but they appear to be outdated and do not work. These include the -install-global-extension argument to Firefox, placing the xpi file as it was downloaded into the "extensions" folder, placing the xpi file renamed to the extension ID into the "extensions" folder, unzipping the contents of the xpi into a subfolder of the "extensions" folder named as the extension ID. Please note, these attempts might have failed because I placed the extension NOT where it was supposed to go. The instructions refer to the global extension folder as <installation folder>/extensions, but on my system no such folder exists. Firefox seems to get installed into /usr/local/lib/firefox and there is no "extensions" subfolder there in. However, there is a "browser/extensions" subfolder, but placing my XPI there did not trigger any effect. Also, I manually created the "extensions" subfolder in /usr/local/lib/firefox and moved the xpi there (on various names, unzipped and in a whole) without the expected result.
Any suggestion is very much appreciated!
My goal is to install the firefox package, then run something from the command line resulting the non-English translation in the downloaded XPI becoming the system-wide default for all users. A step forward would be to know for certain where that "extensions" folder must be on my specific OS. How do I query that?

Excellent. These guides got me as far as installing my preferred language pack, which gets added to the add-ons automatically (assuming the user says yes to the appearing question when Firefox is started).
However, the GUI does not change unless the user enters "about:config" and changes the locale.
Is there a way to do this from the command line? I mean, changing the locale settings.
And preferrably for all users. So even when new users get added and they start Firefox the first time, they see it appearing with the preferred locale and not in English.

You need to reset the password for the "old" account, and then use that to turn off iCloud. Then you will be able to sign in with your new ID.
You can reset your password at iForgot.apple.com.
If you don't know the answers to the security questions, you will need to start there.

-If you established a rescue email address, there will be a link on the "Passwords & Security" page of id.apple.com. Clicking the link will send the reset to your rescue email address (NOTE: This is not the same address as your Apple ID email)
-If there is no link on the page, then you didn't establish a rescue email address. Contact AppleCare at 800.694.7466 (If you are in the US), and ask for account security.

Install in English language

Hi to all.
It is certainly an unusual question and I don't know where to post my problem
I'm French. So when I download Oracle9i Developer Suite, I would like to install in English language and the installation is always in French, on a French version of Windows. The same thing appears when I have an English version of Windows.
What can I do to install ODS in English ? Some parameters to change ?

Unusual to be getting a DEP in those circumstances. (Still, I haven't been around all that much in recent times. So the world may have changed.)
What seems most likely is that we've got an iTunes preference file gone bad in some way. So I'd try the "Remove iTunes preferences files" section in the "User-specific troubleshooting" section from the following document. (Note you'll have to make sure that "Show hidden files and folders" is set on the PC in order to find the pref files.)

Installing a New Language- Mass Updating Info Object Descriptions ?

We recently installed a new language in our BI 7 system (Patch 16). But the Active SAP delivered info objects (namespace 0nnnn...) did not 'inherit' the SAP provided translations into the new language.
I can update each info object one by one with descriptions in the new language.
I can use the translation utility (once I figure it out) to updated the descriptions.
I can activate standard business content which seems to contain the new language.
But I'm hoping for something easier and less intrusive. I'm hoping there is a hidden SAP program that merely adds the description in the new language to my existing info objects from the Standard Business Content, without any reverse engienering, redesign, and so forth.
Is anyone aware of anything like that ?

Here's the answer from our discussion with SAP.
There is a program RSDG_LANGUAGE_AFTER_IMPORT that you can run. This program replaces the object description texts in your active SAP Delivered objects with the text description from the Delivered version in the language that you just installed. Here are OSS notes that are relevant to this issue : OSS Note 562436 and 877049.
We executed this report using these criteria to replace default English descriptions with the business content descriptions in Polish for our implementation:
Langauge Key "PL"
Do not Overwrite Texts turned OFF
It worked rapidly (150 CPU seconds) and flawlessly. I will say that the program looks for and changes the desription of EVERY object that it can find, and there is no control over changing just query elements or info objects. So step carefully. We plan on running this program in each system (after unlocking) so that we do not have to transport every single standard content object through our development / tests / production environment.
Once you are finished with this, you will, of course, need to use the translation tools to translate your custom objects. I've personally found the BI 7 translation tools to be much easier to work with than the earlier versions, but that may simply be a symptom of our upgrade process (we just upgraded to BI 7 from BW 3.5)
