Login language for keyboard

Here's the situation:
I've accidentally locked myself out of my system.
My login is set to show the user name and the user password so I must enter both at the login screen in two separate fields.
The login screen user name must be typed in using the Greek language (my name in Greek)
The password must be typed in using English characters as they are usually set by default for the login screen.
I can restore all of my data from backup if necessary but getting access to my machine would be much more convenient.
So, the question is, how can I toggle between the two languages at the login screen? ) (so far I have tried typing in the correct characters for Greek using the English keyboard but this has not worked)
Alternatively, is there some other solution to this problem using the install disks or some other means?

Ευχαριστώ πάρα πολύ!!!
Thank you very much!!!
You were right. Everything was set in English characters for the login screen since that is what I use the most.
Ok, I managed to get back into my system by setting all of the passwords to blank and then I logged in under root. I was able to get into the main user id that I use through the root administrator and reset everything. I'm almost 100% fine now.
Now, the only thing I have to change to get back to normal is to remove the user "Other" from the list of login names at the login screen. The name doesn't show up when I login under the user that I set up (that is to say the non root user) under the account settings in the system preferences. All I want to do is remove that "Other" (root) user from showing up on the login screen. If I solve that, I'm through the woods.

  • Mathematic / Scientific language for keyboard?

    I'm a engineering student, and I am looking for a mathematic/scientific language for my keyboard.  This would make texting and sharing various formulas a lot easier to send and more importantly, clearer to the recipient. Is there one available?

    I think there used to be an app called Cymbol which could be useful.

  • Thai language for keyboard

    Hi,
    I want to be able to type Thai using my standard keyboard. Is there some software that I can download that will enable me to do this?
    Thanks

    when i opened a word document and typed i just got a series of blank squares for every character typed. Is there something i have done wrong?
    If you are using Word X, it is obsolete and can't do Unicode scripts like Thai. Aside from AppleWorks, any other word processor should work ok.
    If you are using Word 2004 and higher, make sure you have it set to a font that includes Thai, like Lucida Grande, Thonburi, Ayuthaya, Silom, Krungthep. Even so, MS products do not support correct Thai linebreaking, so best to use an Apple app like TextEdit or Pages, which does.

  • Login Settings for multiple language sites

    I'm using the standard ADDT Control Panel Login Settings for a site that has multi-country and multi-language areas. However, the global redirect pages (login, redirects) can't be customised to each specific country area as they need a direct page reference. How do I get round this so I can have individual page redirections per country?
    Ta!

    Hi Matthew,
    <br />
    <br />just an idea: let´s assume you´re storing the country areas in the main "users" table like this:
    <br />
    <br />- en
    <br />- de
    <br />- fr
    <br />
    <br />..., you could...
    <br />
    <br />1. add a recordset to the global redirect page like this:
    <br />
    <br />"SELECT country_area FROM users WHERE user_id" equals the Session Variable kt_login_id
    <br />
    <br />2. implement a simple standard PHP redirection which embeds the recordset´s value, like this:
    <br />
    <br /><?php<br />header('Location: http://www.yoursite.com/page_'.$row_queryname['country_area'].'.php' ) ;<br />?>
    <br />
    <br />This should translate to "page_en.php", "page_de.php" etc etc
    <br />

  • Language for my keyboard

    Hi everyone!
    I really could use your help. I have aT400 and Vista Business installed. The problem is that I can not find the good combination of language and keyboard. I live in the Netherlands but the normal combination Dutch (language) and VS International (keyboard| does not work, The signs on the keyboard do not match with what I type. For example if I want to type ? it gives me _
    Does anyone knows what combination I have to install and use?
    Thank you for your help!!

    I was having the same problem here. I solved it by pressing ctrl+shift keys. It cycles keyboard layouts. It's just Control+Shift. No other letter added. Try it and let us know. Cheers from Brazil.

  • Positions of windows getting changed for different login languages.

    Hi,
    I have to create a script having original language EN and translated to HE (hebrew) for cheque printing.
    I have created the layout having the main window and 8 other variable windows.
    When I am executing the script in EN the alignment is coming ok.. but whenever I am printing through HE, the alignment changes and it seems the windows are getting aligned from right to left.
    Is there any way possible to correct this, or can we dynamically change the position of the windows when we login through the different login languages.
    Thanks.
    Arindam.

    Hi Venkataganesh,
    The problem is that I need to create the same form for both EN (as the original key) and HE (as a translation) due to the programming standards we follow.
    This is also a functional requirement of the development.
    Though I know that this is difficult to implement, I myself might have found out the way to rectify the changes in window position.
    You can create the form in EN as usual, but when you login through HE you need to do the following changes just before the print.
    Customise local layout (Alt + F12) --> Charecter Set --> Hebrew (Right Justified)
    Though I must say that since I do not have a printer configured to my ODC I have never really tested this but the print preview seems to come correct.
    Would definitely like to know your comments on the above.
    Regards,
    Arindam.

  • Is there a way to make default keyboard languages for specific contacts... Like for my mum in Spanish and for my buddies in English?

    Is there a way to make default keyboard languages for specific contacts... Like for my mum whom I send messages in Spanish to and for my buddies who speak English.

    I think you cannot set default value with something that is not on the list.
    try to do it differently, leave the 3 option and set the default value to New.
    then, edit the "newform.aspx" and hide the field, with jQuery
    jQuery(document).ready(function($) {
    $("select[title='fieldName']").closest("tr").hide();
    then, edit the "editform.aspx" and remove the "New" option from the drop down with javascript
    jQuery(document).ready(function($) {
    $("select[title='fieldName'] option[value='New']").remove();
    hmmm welcome to SharePoint :)

    Whille we are all waiting for OS BB10 to be ported onto Playbook, I doubt there will be any major improvements to OS2.1
    It's possibe you will have all the languages currently enjoyed on Z10 and I understand that includes Arabic.
    We will all have to wait. Probably into second half of this year as no betas are available yet.

    I really doubt that there will be any language(s) add to the PlayBook, it was announced a few months ago that the PlayBook will only receive maintenance update and that the BB10 OS will not be made available to the PlayBook because the requirement for the new OS is behound the capability of the PlayBook (BB10 need 2Gb RAM, PlayBook only has 1Gb).

  • Login language missing when opening a web query

    When I am opening a web query, e.g. using the execute button in Query Designer, I am not asked for the login language. Therefore, I am not able to chose the language. Instead, the language "DE" (German) is taken by default.
    I want to execute the query in another language (English). I can do that by adding "language=en" to the URL, but this is not a solution.
    I would like to have the option to enter the language together with the login information (user and password).
    Why is the language selection missing?
    How do I get the language selection?
    In BEx (Excel) I have the language selection field.

    When you log onto the SAP system, you must select a language. The following describes the process according to which the logon language is determined.
    The browser that is connected to the SAP Web Application Server as a client also has language settings. With Internet Explorer, you can set the language you require by choosing Tools ® Internet Options ® Languages.
    The logon language for the SAP Web Application Server is set according to the following process.
           1.      In transaction SICF, if the service has set the flag Mandatory Logon Data, the system uses the language that was entered there.
           2.      If this is not the case, but the HTTP request contains the language in the HTTP header (as a header or a form field), you log onto the system using this language.
           3.      The system then takes the browser settings. The system selects as the logon language the first language from the list that is maintained in the browser, and which is also installed in the SAP system.
    These are transferred using the HTTP header field accept-language.
           4.      If no language is defined by this process, the classic SAP system mechanisms are used. The logon language is based on the user settings (in transaction SU01) and if nothing is entered here, the default language of the SAP system is used automatically.
