Is it possible to purchase a non-english keyboard in the US?

We often have users that would like a different langugage keyboard on their laptops. I have a brazillian user that would like a Portuguese keyboard, and was told that needs to be purchased in Brazil, or a custom laptop needs to be ordered straight from lenovo.
Can anyone shed some light on this or have experience getthing them in the US?

Hi asenft!
Look up the part number for the keyboard you want in the Hardware Maintenance Manual. There will be at least two manufacturers. A good place to search for the part is IBM Parts.
Hope this helps!
I don't work for Lenovo. I'm a crazy volunteer!

  • Command-~ - not possible on non-english keyboard

    Searched the forum and could only find this topic in the archives. It's a problem that comes up once in a while.
    I love to point out that the shortcut Command-~ (and command-1,2,3,...) is still hard coded in Photoshop.
    As a user on a non-english keyboard it's impossible to use the Command-~ shortcut. On Mac it's not even listed, on windows, it's listed but it can only be selected by pressing the shift key; so the shortcut doesn't work.
    Hopefully Adobe will add the possibility to change this shortcut once and for all.

    The no-mouse shortcut in CS4 is Cmd Option 2
    The Channel shortcuts have been re-numbered with the Composite now being "2" and the next one (R, C, or Lightness depending on image mode) being "3". And so forth.
    Cmd Option, plus the appropriate number, serves to select Highlights in the specified Channel.
    Cmd Option Shift, plus the appropriate number, lets you add to the selection Channel by Channel.

  • History back on non-english keyboards

    It appears that all non-english keyboards (meaning keyboards that does not have the [ and ] characters as a "singlepress-key"), can't use the history back and forward feature anymore. You need to use the mouse right-click feature or use the buttons in the menu. I'm using a Wacom Tablet and have my buttons are configured to history back and forward when Safari is an active window. I've tried to switch to US keyboard and make the shortcut in the Wacom software, but after I go back to my native language - Danish - it doesnt work. After Apple changed the option from backspace to command + [ and ], I cannot use the history anymore unless I have to use the mouse.
    Can anyone help?

    Hi Jim,
    That shouldn't be a problem at all, if you buy it in the US, the software will be in English, but should install just fine on her PC.
    I'm sure someone will give their input, some people here have bought players from other regions.

  • Entry of non-English characters into the db

    Hi
    We are facing a problem in inserting non-English characters into the database.For example, we have a company name field which can accept German characters. This field has been defined as of varchar2 type of size 50 in the db. When we enter 49 English characters and then one German character, the database is throwing the error that the inserted value is too large for the column.Is it that the German character is taken as equivalent to two English characters ? Or is there any database level setting that can be done for this ? For the time being we have identified certain critical fields and have doubled the size of their fields in the db. But I guess there has to be another solution to this....
    Please help.

    Indeed, your German character is using two bytes to store itself. Consult the Oracle JDBC Developer's Guide.

  • Non-english keyboard layouts work in some programs, not others

    In some programs, I can set a non-English keyboard layout and have the appropriate behavior when it comes to diacritics - in, say, the brazilian layout, hitting { then a will give me a á, and so on. It works perfectly fine in Firefox and xchat, for instance. But in other programs, opera and openoffice to name two I've tried, this fails. I either get a garbage character when I hit the first diacritic key or I just get the diacritic by itself and then the accentless vowel: ´a.
    Completely non-English characters still work fine; I can get ç in the Brazilian layout and ñ in Latin American and the Georgian one works fine too, since Georgian doesn't have diacritics I presume. It's just diacritics that don't work.
    I first noticed this problem after I installed SCIM, so I assume it has something to do with the SCIM installation, but I don't know what I did in the process of installing it that would've messed things up.

  • [LR2 - SOLUTION] Using Lightroom in englsih with a non-english keyboard layout

    Hi,<br /><br />Many of us, non native english speaking LR users, are using LT in<br />english on a system having a non-US keyboard layout. The conseqeunce of<br />this is that we can't reach a lot of keyboard shortcuts because LR<br />doesn't offer any interface for configuring them.<br /><br />However, there's a workaround. I'll explain here what I did for the<br />french language but you can apply this to your own language.<br /><br />For the non english languages, the keyboard shortcuts are defined in<br />C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Photoshop Lightroom<br />2\Resources\<language>\TranslatedStrings.txt. If you are using LR in<br />english, this file is not used and there's no similar file in C:\Program<br />Files\Adobe\Adobe Photoshop Lightroom 2\Resources\en.<br /><br />But you can create one containing only the shortcuts that you need.<br /><br />I have created  a new TranslatedStrings.txt file containing only the<br />keyboard shortcuts defined for the french version. I did this by copying<br />only the lines containing the following sequences:<br /><br />....Key=...<br />....KeyShifted=...<br />...AgPanel/LeftPanelShortcut...<br />...AgPanel/RightPanelShortcut...<br />...MenuShortcut/DecreaseRating=<br />...MenuShortcut/IncreaseRating=<br /><br />(french users can find this file here:<br />http://www.mainsoft.fr/Files/LR/TranslatedStrings.txt .<br /><br />Copy this file to "C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Photoshop Lightroom<br />2\Resources\en" and relaunch Lightroom.<br /><br />Now you have the same keyboard shortcuts as when using LR in french.<br />Interestingly enough, if you hit ctrl + < , the LR keyboard shortcut<br />panel is displayed and it shows your new shortcuts.<br /><br />Again, you can do the same for your own language by copying the<br />specified strings from the relevant folder.<br /><br />Hope this helps.<br /><br />-- <br />Patrick Philippot<br />MainSoft Consulting Services<br />www.mainsoft.fr

    Yes… I would at a minimum contact Apple sales or AppleCare regarding this. You have two options though. You can ask for a new one, given they can't simply swap out a keybaord you need to exchange the whole thing.
    Otherwise, you can use it as a bargaining chip and say ask for a free external International English keyboard and a discount on your next Apple Store purchase… for instance.
    Regardless, be polite yet firm with them as you did not get what you ordered.

  • Screen locked with non-English keyboard layout selected

    Hello,
    I use two keyboard character sets for keyboard. The switch between them is Command-Space.
    I also have password requirement for waking up or going from screen saver.
    Now if screensaver starts with non-English layout selected, I'm not able to login:
    password is not accepted because keyboard layout is not English and switching
    to English layout does not work in unlocking window.
    Is there any way to change layout while in the unlock window?
    Thanks

    Yes you are right, this is not a bug, it's just bad user interface. Just imagine the following scenario...
    Writing a paper, switching to Greek to enter a couple of characters and leaving the mac idle for 5 mins.
    The lock screen comes up asking for a password, unfortunately the user didn't change the language
    before the mac was left idle and there is no option to change the language in the lock screen.
    User has to hard reset to access the mac and let's hope that the user was saving his paper frequenlty.
    So from a coding point of view this is not a bug, but from a user interface design it is a huge flaw

  • Some applications don't put accents with non-english keyboard layouts

    I'm using a Portuguese keyboard with three different macs running Mac OS Tiger 10.4.8/9. Some applications (like Motion 2 and Swift Publishing 2) don't allow writing some accented characters, like (è) or (ê), that are accessed by Shift+normal key, but they do display correctly other accented letters, for instance (é), witch are accessed directly without the Shift key. This happens only in some applications and with a european keyboard layout (I tried it also with the spanish and french keyboards layouts), but not with other applications (it works all right with Word or iPhoto) and the english keyboards.
    Any sugestion as how to solve this? If I create the text in some other application and paste it in Motion it works! But it's a drag.

  • Keypress on non-English keyboard

    I have a Keypress interaction for the = key on the English

    creates an ì. To make this work the Keypress icon title I used
    is =|ì This works fine. Now I'm trying to match the German
    keypress. Turns out the key is a "dead key" and creates an accent

    I would think any key or combination that produces an = on
    the screen would
    work, regardless of its actual position on the keyboard.
