Is there a way to use proper mainland chinese characters on an ipad instead of the apple variants?

I have been learning Chinese at University, and I bought an iPad to help my studies and I have found that Apple for the international keyboard has variants for many different chinese characters. Why is this and is there a way to use the chinese characters that 1.6 billn people use rather than the Apple variants? Will Apple be addressing this at all?

No, The simple and traditional are fine, but when typing in simplified there choices for say, 将 or 骨 are different from both Simplified and Traditional entirely. If I had copied Apple's characters in tests I would have lost grades. I've never seen it happen on another operating system and unfortunatley Microsoft beats Apple in this field; hence why I call them Apple variants. I'm not the only one who has see this problem. The only way to get what I would call authentic chinese characters is with the method that is stated above. I found this solution in the thread titled "Chinese characters misrepresented". There are screen shots there too. I would love to find out how/why Apple chose this system for chinese.

  • My contacts are organized in different groups. An iPhone trade show app (Vinexpo) displays exhibitors infos and allows to create new contacts. Is there any way to save a new contact in a specified group instead of the contacts root? Thks in advance

    My contacts on my iPhone are organized in different groups. I have downloaded a trade show app which gives infos on the exhibitors of the show. It offers to create new contacts from these info. Is there any way to save these new contacts in a specified group instead of putting them into the contacts root, where they are mixed with all the old ones? By the way, can we create a new contacts group directly from the IPhone, without having to go through the sync process with the PC?
    Thanks a lot in advance

    Sorry, I forgot to bookmark the thread where the app was mentioned, but searching for "group" or "contacts" should bring a few results in the AppStore.

  • Is there a way to use Stage3D in Flex Mobile projects on iPad?

    When I create a project of type "Action Script Mobile Project" the Stage3D works on iPad, Android device and in the AIR desktop simulator.
    But when I create a project of type "Flex Mobile Project" it works in the desktop simulator and on Android device but does not work on iPad.
    When running on iPad the stage.stage3Ds[] collection is empty.
    Is it a sort of limitation made by intent? Or a bug? Or maybe I am doing something wrong?
    What I actually need is an ability to render offscreen bitmaps with GPU in an application that uses Spark UI. This is why I need Flex Mobile project.
    My configuration is the following:
    iPad with retina display
    Sony Xperia Tablet Z
    AIR SDK 3.7 (and I have also tried AIR SDK 3.8 today)

  • My laptop screen when black now it will not turn on or off. And is there a way to see everything that has been done to my laptop at a apple store?

    My laptop has been in the apple store to be fixed more times in the past 2 years then you could imagine. They just replaced a defective wire in it, and hardrive not even a month ago and now the screen just went black and wont turn back on. Also is there a way to see everything that has been done to this laptop through the apple store?

    If I were you I would call Apple Customer Relations (800) 767-2775.  Tell them exactly what you stated in your post in a polite way.  See what they can do for you.

  • HT5569 Is there a way to store a wi-fi password on an iPad and then copy and paste it into the proper space when you want to connect to your password protected network?  (the password is 31 random characters)

    Is there a way to store a wi-fi password on an ipad and then copy and paste it into the proper space when you want to connect to your password proctected newwor?  (the password is 31 random characters)

    Yes, if both the Mac and iPad are setup using the same iCloud account, then any notes you enter on the Mac will be synced across to the iPad almost instantly.
    Same occurs with the 1Password app I mentioned. If you have both the Mac and iPad versions of it, and setup either iCloud or Dropbox syncing, any passwords entered on the Mac will be synced to the app running on the iPad ready for copying and pasting. This would be the most secure method, but not the cheapest.

    It depends a lot on what you have installed and what apps you run. Here's a suggestion:  Get Little Snitch and see what processes are accessing your internet connection.

  • Is there a way to use a statically defined appearance stream in a dynamically created annotation?

    Hello,
    I want to create a document with cascading 'popups'.  Not the built-in text-only popup, but an annotation containing an appearance stream that defines text and images.  I'm currently using widget annotations based on a pushbutton field.
    Each page in my document has many citations that refer to other pages in the document.  When a user hovers over the citation, I want a 'popup' to appear containing a depiction of the destination.  However, as the destination will itself have citations, I also want the 'popup' to contain citations that the user can hover over, triggering another popup, etc.  In this way, a user could navigate throughout the document without leaving the page or even clicking the mouse.
    Obviously, with even a modest number of citations per page, pre-calculating and statically defining all of these widgets causes a combinatorial explosion, making the document sluggish and very large.
    Instead, I'd like to statically define appearance streams once per document, and then dynamically create annotations and assign the appropriate appearance stream using JS as the user navigates.
    So far I've created a named AP in the names dictionary, but I haven't been able to use it to dynamically set an appearance stream of a dynamically created widget annotation.
    Also, I've called Doc.getIcon(), passing in the named AP, which returns an Icon object.  However, after field.buttonSetIcon() and passing in the named AP, the button does not display the icon.
    Is there a way to use a statically defined appearance stream in a dynamically created annotation?
    Thank you,
    Dave

    Hi George, I've gotten named APs to work, and I expect hidden buttons will follow.  Thank you very much!
    Quick follow-up - I will have many documents embedded within the same pdf file, and some of these documents will contain identical popups.  However, I don't want to store identical icons in each document on account of file size.
    Instead, I'd like to store one instance of each icon for all documents in the file.
    Can I store all of the icons in a single document, and then access them by calling <DocName>.getField().getIcon() from any document in the file?
    Thank you again,
    Dave

  • Is there a way to use iPhoto and *not* have it import photos?

    Hi there,
    I'm transitioning from a PC to a Mac and everything is going fairly well -- overall a better user experience. One question I have is, is there a way to use iPhoto without having it import photos? My main issue is that currently iPhoto imports all the photos that I want to view/edit in iPhoto and copies them to it's own folder structure. I like to manage my pictures in a folder structure that I define, so I already back up my photos to another location and now I'm finding that iPhoto is just duplicating the pictures that I already have where I want them, sucking up precious space on my SSD.
    So is there a way for me to just point iPhoto to a folder, make my edits on those photos, and have iPhoto automatically save those changes to the original folder I pointed it to, instead of duplicating the photos in it's own folder structure?
    It occasional things like this that makes me miss some Windows features. In this case, I miss Windows Photo Gallery.

    Hm, ok so if I edit my photos (adjust brightness etc) in iPhoto and then export it, does it export with the brightness changed, or does it just export the original?
    It exports whichever you choose - the edited version or the original.
    However, am I the only one with trust issues with importing all my photos into iPhoto? I'm scared the library will get corrupted, etc.
    NO you're not the only one. The protection against any data corruption is a good back up, and you need that for any data on any computer running any OS. But in the case of iPhoto, remember too that the original files are stored exactly as they are imported, in folders, in the filing system.
    that when I go to export the photos, there's a LOT of duplicate file names that the export chokes on, which makes it very tedious, no, painful, for me to export a large number of photos.
    Explore the options under File Name when you export from iPhoto using the File -> Export command
    Regards

  • Is there a way to use PM4.0 with Windows XPH?

    Is there a way to use PM4.0 with Windows XPH without purchasing the latest suite or upgrades?  I origionally purchased a suite with Pagemaker, Photostyler and Freehand just before Aldus went Adobe, and Win3.1 went Win95, then WinME and WinXP.  I miss PM and have several manyscripts saved on PM4.0 and can not export or import them to any current wordprocessing programs.  I was very far into one manuscript and am now in a position to finish it up but don't want to have to purchase a whole suite in order to do so.  Any suggestions for this old tightwad?  [email protected]

    Shouldn't that be Win3.0  c.1991?  And with a very early of version ATM (Ver 2?)  if you want to do anything with fonts?
    I think I have a WinME PC in the garage, which if you can re-format with DOS 5 and install Win3 instead (I may have the disks in the garage too), PM4 will positively scream along.
    I reckon it's non starter on a modern WinXP PC, as the OS is so different, but if you're willing to experiment, you never know!
    But if you want to open some old files to extract the text, you can open the PM4 files and save them with a d/l'ed trial copy of PM7, which will be OK on WinXP

  • Is there a way to use two macs to run one app? I want to use my two macbook pros processors in a shared capacity.

    I have two macbook pros a 2.4ghz and a 2.2ghz. Is there a way to use the other macbook pro to help with any cpu intensive apps like audio and video apps. I haven't had much luck on finding anything about sharing resources. It would be awesome if you could link up two macs and use both of them to power through processor intensive tasks.
