Japanese  document names not showing up in Japanese letters

Hello
This is a screen font problem, I believe.
Up until recently, I set my main language to Japanese with English as a sub-language. Thus all menus and computer HELP etc. was in Japanese. But, I no longer need to do that, so I changed my main language to English so I can see HELP and menus in English. I kept Japanese as the sub-language. I am so much happier now that I can use the computer in English, but do work in Japanese.
I can still type in Japanese - I need to do that, and I view internet pages in Japanese. WORD docs - I can type in Japanese with no problem. But I have noticed an odd thing. Any document I name using Japanese letters turns to greeked text when viewed on the desktop or in a selection window when looking for a doc to open. But when I open the file, I can see the correct Japanese letters of the name of the file at the top of the doc. window.
ALSO - and this is odd-, any old file that I named using Japanese letters before I switched languages, still shows on the desktop in the correct Japanese letters. It shows up correctly everywhere. Never greeked.
Why do old files show the correct Japanese letters and NEW files only get greeked??
Is there any way I can chanage the screen font or system font to OSAKA, the font used for Japanese sytesms, but in my English/Japanese sytsem?? Why is my screen font showing old files correctly in the Japanese language, but it can not display newly made file names in Japanese (the Japanese content inside the file is no problem. it shows up correctly.)
I realize that I can workaround this problem just by naming all my files using English text, but that seems incomplete and not a real answer to me.

Is this problem only with Word docs (and not, say TextEdit)? If so, Word X or Word 2004? Japanese or English Word? For a Word problem you might want to ask on their support groups too:

You can't change the system font.
If you know Japanese well, you might also ask in the Japanese forums:

  • Documents do not show up on iCloud.

    My documents will not show up on iCloud. I am just trying to upload documents from my Macbook to iCloud, nothing that resembles science fiction or that requires a PhD in computer science.. I have done everything that the help section/faq's tell me to do, still nothing shows up on iCloud. I am new to Mac but this doesn't seem to be any different than Windows... Any suggestions? Thank you.

    Err this is no longer April 1st you know.
    The iPod Shuffle has never had a 'display' on which track names can be shown. See http://www.apple.com/ipod-shuffle/ if you want an iPod which does have a display on which you can see the tracks names and even the album cover art then look instead at the bigger and more expensive iPod Nano http://www.apple.com/ipod-nano/ or iPod Touch http://www.apple.com/ipod-touch/
    PS. The current iPod Shuffle even though it has no display on which it can show the track names can read them out loud to you using a voice-synthesiser this is the VoiceOver feature described on the iPod Shuffle product page I listed above.

    hi chris, that would almost definitely only be available by doing a webdynpro enhancement to hap_main_document.

  • Contact name not showing in call/sms log even when I call/sms from my address book.

    Two things have changed on my phone recently.
    1. I ran the latest update 4.3.2
    2. My phone was not showing all the contacts in my address book that is in my Mobile Me account. Mobile me had 166 contacts. The iPhone 4 had 136. I I unchecked the syncing of my contacts on my phone. This removed all the contacts from my phone. Then I check the syncing options again. All 166 appeared on the phone.
    I'm not sure which of the two caused the issue but now anytime someone who calls their name does not appear on the display or log, just their number. I can even call people from my address book and the display shows that I am calling them with their name and photo on display. However, in the call log the name does not show just their number.  This applies for text messages. I send a message directly from within the contact card in the address book and in my text log it shows only the number and not the name.
    I've turned the phone off and on a couple of times.
    I would appreciate any advice.
    Cheers

    Thanks iraghib,
    In the end I reset my phone to factory settings. I created a back up of my address book and ical. Reset the phone and did a sync again. This fixed it all. I didn't need to use the backups but is was nice to know they were there. I felt entering the various passwords for all my installed apps was a much better deal than adding the international area code to the 166 contacts I have in my address book.
    Good luck. And thanks for the post.

  • IC Webclient: document search not showing documents for contacts

    Hi,
    I am working with SAP CRM 4.0, SP7.
    I have created an account(a001) with three contacts(c001, c002, c003). I have attached a document(d001) to account a001 and two documents(d002, d003) to contact c001.
    Now when I open the IC-Web client UI and go to 'Identify Account' and enter a001 in the Account ID and do a search account, I see three contacts(c001, c002, c003) in the result list of account. When I click in the contact(c001) and go to 'Document Search', it shows only documents attached to a001 and there is no way I can see the documents attached to c001.
    Can anyone please let me know, how do I see the documents attached to contact c001 in this case?
    Please note that if I enter c001 in the Account ID of 'Identify Account' and then go to 'Document Search', then it shows me the documents d002 and d003. But, I want to see the contacts documents entering from accounts.
    Thanks in advance,

  • Server name not showing up in Chooser

    mac OS 10.1.3 server. The server name is not showing up in the Chooser,. I can get to it by typing in the IP address, but this is a pain for my teachers.
    It showed up for a long time, but now it will not show up.
    Any ideas?

    Apple talk is on the server and the clients. I also have another server that is connected to the same switch and it can be seen in the chooser. So I do not think it is a config problem with the switches or hubs. I have not changed anything (that I know of). I have researched this and can not find anything on it.

  • Document Flags not showing on Web Excel

    We are using BW3.5 SEM4.0.
    Documents are added to cells in planning layouts.
    Documents flags are showing up on web and BEx reports. They are also showing up on non-Excel web planning layouts, and Excel Gui layouts.
    The flags are, however, not showing on Web Excel layouts. Althought the document could still be viewed, if you know which cell they are located in.
    Is there a solution to this? Thanks for reading.

    Hi guys,
    I have a related problem: I set up BPS to handle the documents (and I already tested it, it works fine).
    My 4 characteristics are WBS element, version, fisc per, and material.
    Now, I am just creating a web reports that should also display these documents. What do I have to adjust in the Query designer? Do I have to restrict the report to exactly this combination to see them?
    (I have tried Query properties ->Display ->Display Document links, it shows icons per column, but does not display any BPS document I created)
    any help is appreciated
    thanks,
    martin

  • Chapter name not showing up in Scene Selection

    I have an iMovie 9 project that has three chapters.   I've used the Chapter Markers to delineate where they begin and what their names are.
    I've sent the finished project to Media Browser and then I go to iDVD to burn the project successfully and all seems well. 
    The trouble is, the first chapter's name is not showing up in the Scene Selection.   It's just listed as "The Beginning" instead of the name I've given it.  I checked it in the preview function before I burn the DVD, and it's not there, either.  The other two chapters' names show up successfully. 
    Can anyone help me here?  Thanks. 

    I just made sure that the Chapter Marker was at the very beginning of the clip, and that seemed to have solved the problem.

  • Contact names not showing in messages, only number

    nokia 6121  no names will show when ringing or recieving texts so I dont know who they are from etc, very frustrating, how do I change it to show the contact name not number? I cant find any settings to help me? thanks

    Hi, In such case, try to check the things below:
    1> Make sure all contacts are stored in unique memory : sim or phone memory (recommend phone memory)
    2> Try to avoid 1 contacts has few numbers and other case, similar or same names for fews contacts
    3> Add your country code into the normal number format, eg: 0123455678 --> saved as +60 12345678 (+60 is the country code for MY)
    4> Check the settings under Contacts folder: Contacts > Settings > Contact view or Display contacts > try to change Last name/ First name view option one by one

  • Picture names not showing in iphoto+mail

    I recently updated to ilife ´08 and can´t figure out how to get the actual data names to show. I don´t sant to see titles,ratings and keywords.. I want to see the actual names of the pictures. Also when I hit the mail button in iphoto the pictures are put in the mail... without the pictures name. If I drag and drop the pics to a desktop folder the names ar5e of course correct. But many of the people I send mails to are not even aware how to drag and drop. If I send someone an email with 40 pictures to chose from,I want them to see the names underneath the pictures in the email without having to drag and drop. This was always how it worked in ilife ´07 and it makes choosing the pictures and telling me which ones they want in high quality a very easy process. I can´t even figure out how to sort the photos by "NAME". If there is no way to change it then I will be going back to the older version. Sometimes "improvement" is not a good thing.
    Does anybody know how to do this?

    When you select a pic to Email in the iPhoto Window and hit the email button you have the option to include title and comments with the photo.
    Uploaded with plasq's Skitch!
    In iPhoto you have two concepts that are related:
    Title is a name that you give to a photo in iPhoto
    Filename is the name of the file that contains the photo.
    Which are you referring to when you say "name"?
