ITABC input method for Chinese language

*Languages and Texts: Input Source: Chinese-Simplified: ITABC*
I recently upgraded from Tiger to Snow Leopard. On Tiger, I found the ITABC input method for Chinese-Simplified language the most useful. Since upgrading to Snow Leopard on my desktop (and also Snow Leopard on new MacBook Pro), the ITABC input method is absent from the Chinese-Simplified Input Sources tab.
Can anyone help me with why this? Can I somehow get the ITABC input back?
Thank you for any assistance.

Isn't the "Pinyin" on the list very similar to ITABC?
If you have problems with it, best to ask on the Chinese-Mac list.

Many people now use QIM instead of the SCIM:

Strongly Suggest the Apple to develop the new input method for Chinese

As we know, there is only one input method in iOS, but it is really hard to use, so I strongly suggest the Apple to develop the new input method for Chinese, any body agree with me? please support our suggestion!!!! thanks.

I am puzzled by your statement. Here is the list of 7 that I see:
Simplified Chinese: Handwriting, Pinyin, Stroke,
Traditional Chinese: Pinyin, Zhuyin, Cangjie, Stroke
When you use the feedback channel to contact Apple, make sure you tell them exactly what it is you want. Asking them to "develop a new input method" will certainly just be ignored because they will have no idea what you are talking about.

When will you support T9 input method for Chinese?

It's been iOS 5.0.1 already. But you still don't think for Chinese. You are really happy watching us strive in typing chinese with a full keyboard? I know you don't know Chinese. But please ask your chinese customers if they are happy with your input method. Nowadays Baidu and Sogou and many other companies have developed very good input method, but you don't support. I can understand you don't open your system. but please at least let Chinese get what they deserved with so high price!

Help me please to offer me some advices on how to solve this problem, thanks in advance.

I think you need to find a Chinese font that works when you install it into your operating system... not all fonts are created equal, and not all fonts work... I don't use Chinese, so can only suggest using Google to search for a font that works with your Mac

I have never heard of any Linux OS geographical limitations. How did you determine that the installation using Chinese was not able to connect to the Internet. Did you properly configure DNS? Any chance of a typing mistake in the previous configuration, or perhaps temporary networking problems from you provider or network side?

Incompatible Changjie Input Method for Macbook Pro Office for Mac

I have Chinese word input problems when I use my Macbook Pro 13" Retina OS X and Microsoft Office for Mac Standard 2011 with Service Pack 2.
When I use Changjie input method to input some Chinese words like "面", "屬", "應", these words cannot be shown with correct input methods. They can only be shown by Quick input method. It is very strange. No such problems exist when I use my iPod, iPad or iPhone 5. Please advise. Thank you!
For your reference, Changjie input method of the above words are:
面＝一田卜中
屬＝尸卜卜戈
應＝戈土心
These words cannot be shown by the above methods.

PS OS X Cangjie does seem to use different codes for those characters:

Internationalization for Chinese Language

Hi All
I need to impelement the chinese language in Swing components. I followed the INternationalization steps from Java tutorial. I have a property file which contains the necessary mapppings for the chinese equivalents of english words.
<filename>.zh.CN.properties
on executing the application it is nort displaying any characters for the chinese equivalent.
Kindly reply also to my id at [email protected]

Typing Chinese characters into the properties file is not part of the java capabilities. For example, you could use something like Microsoft Word to create your properties file including Chinese characters. You would save the file as some type of encoded text (I prefer UTF8 myself) and then use the Sun "nativetoascii" program to convert the file to a form where all your non-ASCII characters are represented by the Unicode escape sequence. (for example, \u347a ). It is this last file that is read by java when it gets your resource bundle at run time.hi joe,
sorry, but my basics are not strong, i could not get you. my project manager has asked me to use Arial unicode MS. so how do i get chinese characters in word , i did not understand.
You would save the file as some type of encoded text >>(I prefer UTF8 myself) and then use the >>Sun "nativetoascii" program to converti did not understand this can you eloborate.
do i hava an option of typing in english, and it gets converted to unicode in the properties file.
please help
thanks,

UTF8 character set conversion for chinese Language

Hi friends,
Would like to some basic explanation on UTF8 feature,what does it help while converting the data from chinese language.
Would like to know what all characters this UTF8 will not support while converting from chinese language.
Thanks & Regards
Ramya Nomula

Not exactly sure what you are looking for, but on MetaLink, there are numerous detailed papers on NLS character sets, conversions, etc.
Bottom line is that for traditional Chinese characters (since they are more complicated), they require 4 bytes to store the characters (such as UTF-8, and AL32UTF8). Some mid-eastern characters sets also fall in this category.
Do a google search on "utf8 al32utf8 difference", and you will get some good explanations.
e.g., http://decipherinfosys.wordpress.com/2007/01/28/difference-between-utf8-and-al32utf8-character-sets-in-oracle/
Recently, one of our clients had a question on the differences between these two character sets since they were in the process of making their application global. In an upcoming whitepaper, we will discuss in detail what it takes (from a RDBMS perspective) to address localization and globalization issues. As far as these two character sets go in Oracle, the only difference between AL32UTF8 and UTF8 character sets is that AL32UTF8 stores characters beyond U+FFFF as four bytes (exactly as Unicode defines UTF-8). Oracle’s “UTF8” stores these characters as a sequence of two UTF-16 surrogate characters encoded using UTF-8 (or six bytes per character). Besides this storage difference, another difference is better support for supplementary characters in AL32UTF8 character set.
You may also consider posting your question on the Globalization Suport forum which pertains more to these types of questions.

LSMW - DIRECT INPUT METHOD FOR UPLOADING PP MASTER DATA

Dear Gurus,
A LSMW project (DIRECT INPUT METHOD)has been created for PP master.
But Now They have Lost Previous File which they have prepared Earlier.
Now to Create a file for the Same Project wat fields need to be taken.
By taking only Source structure fields it is giving error.
In project some constant fields are also there.
pls guide me.
With Regards,
GMP

have Lost Previous File
what does that mean? did they lose the source that should be used to load the data from?
without source you cannot load data.
Had you ever got this source file? how? by mail, then check your old mails and take it from there, ask the sender to he/she checks the SENT folder in his mail system. Maybe someone has a local copy of this fille.

Lsmw direct input method for ct04

Hello Friends,
Im using lsmw direct input method RCCTBI01 obj 0150 method 000 for creating characteristics value.
In lsmw im getting erro at "specify file" stage as "no logical path has been specified. I have come to conclusion tht i have to define some logical path in FILE transaction code but im not clear what needs to be done .
Pls let me know how to define logical file path for ct04 transaction.
Regards,
Sunny

Hi,
First choose or create a directory by selecting say TMP as the logical file path and then click the assignment of physical paths to logical paths.Double click your operating system eg. UNIX then specify the directory followed by a generic filename e.g. /tmp/<FILENAME>
Now click logical file name definition and create a new name, say ZCT04_FILE give the logical path as TMP and then specify the file name e.g. CT04.TXT and the format ASC.
The file will then be created as /tmp/CT04.TXT

What is the best method for multiple language interface?

Hi,
I need to adapt my CVI application to multiple languages. But I have to be able to do this on the fly. The Localizer is great for all the panel objects and this works great. But I was wondering what the best method is for all the dialog box text? Right now I'm using const char defines for the text. For exampl:
const char *CONST_NO_STRING = "No";
Is there a simple method, or best practice method, to load different language dialog text at run time or on the fly?
Thanks,
Andy

Not sure if Andy's original concern was settled... but let's try and button this up:
- The UI Localizer does use a text file with manually-written translated strings for each supported language
- From the Localizer help: this will only aid in translating the panel labels.
Use this instrument driver to easily display user interfaces in different languages. When loading a panel or menu bar, you can specify a language file that contains translations for all the labels on the panel and all the menu items. You can create different language files for the user interfaces by translating them with the User Interface Localizer utility (localui.exe).
- If you have additional content to be translated (like the text inside a drop down box), manually loading from .lwl, or similar, files and programmatically setting those dialog box entries would be the solution. - Looks like CVI should handle multibyte languages just fine (see below), though I have never used them.
