MS Word shows only US keyboard layout althought other languages are working

hello all,
i have the following problem and i hope someone can help...
on my iMac G5 (where I have MS Office 2004 installed) i use the following four languages: US English, Russian, Czech, German. When I type something in Russian in Word i can use the littel on-screen keyboard (don't know what the name of that thing is in English) to find the right cyrillic characters etc. This works perfectly in every programme and for every language.
On my MacBook (where I have MS Office 2004 installed, too), however, I have the same four languages and I can use them all in Word but the little on-screen keyboard shows me only the US keyboard layout, no matter what language input I have chosen. This happens only in Word, not in any other programmes.
This means that on my MacBook I can use e.g. Spotlight, type something in Cyrillic and use the on-screen keyboard (which shows me the cyrillic keyboard).
In Word, however, I can type in Russian, but whenever I want to have a look at the on-screen keyboard it only shows me the US keyboard. (The same happens when I am typing in German or Czech and want to have a look at the corresponding keyboard - all I get is the US keyboard layout)
I spent hours on the net and changing the country settings - they are exactly as they are on my iMac - but to no avail ...
Any ideas how to get rid of that problem??
Thanks!

Thanks Tom for the link, I found the answer there - it confirmed my suspicions: it is because of Rosetta.

  • On my screen my iChat name shows as my AIM handle, but other people are showing a completely different name. Anyone know how to correct this?

    Hi,
    I still have you in my Buddy list.
    Whereas you were showing just plain "Norma"  you are now showing "Norma Howe" in Capital Letters.
    The only way I know to achieve that at my end is to View any Display Name that was set up or Add those "First Name, Last Name" Details to my address Book and list your Screen Name against them.
    IF the AIM Settings Display Name items does not List NORMA HOWE and in fact lists something else the only thing I can think of is another App allows the Display name to be set from there and this is overriding the AIM Setting info.
    I fired up an old version of AIM for Mac (version 4.7 from 2005) on my G4 computer running Leopard.
    This Identifies Buddies that have entered Display Names  (puts them in the Quotes as in "NORMA HOWE")
    In the Preferences of this version of AIM for Mac it has a Sign On tab.
    This has a box to enter how you show up (i.e. the Display Name)  This version hints at adding Capitalisation and Spaces to your Screen Name.
    Actually when I tried to change it to anything this version refused to let me.
    So I changed my regular Name to "Ralph Johns r"
    This however does not change the AIM settings page
    Uploaded with Skitch!
    This would suggest that if the AIM setting page does not have this info then it is an AIM app somewhere.
    Boot Camp and  windows Version ?
    AIM for Mac (Any versions) ?  (I am prettry sure it will be  alter version than mine as the Self Listing shows the changed Name but still lists it as the Screen Name in the info Screen)
    AIM on a Phone or iPad ?

  • Change Keyboard Layout, But Keep Language

    I have a MacBook with USA keyboard layout.
    While installing, by mistake i selected Latin American keyboard.
    Now, i want my language to still be "Spanish/Argentina", but they keyboard layout should be USA.
    How can i do that? Note that I don't want to have many input keyboards and then have to switch between latin and english language.

    I don't see an option to change "keyboard layout" only.
    Do you really not see the Tab called Input Menu under system preferences/international? There are boxes to check for keyboard layouts, and one is called US.
    Another Tab is called Language, and there you can put Spanish (actually Español) at the top to keep your OS in Spanish.
    Another Tab, in the middle, is called Formats.
    PS If you want to type Spanish with the US layout, you can use the Option/Alt key shortcuts. A list can be found here:

  • Digital Cinema Desktop Preview, keyboard layout and other bugs - Leopard

    I just reinstalled my Mac Pro because I hoped it would fix some bugs... but no luck. Digital cinema desktop preview (dcdp) was working just fine until I installed the Aja Kona Lhe software, afterwards only dcdp for the main display was working, both dcdp and dcdp "full screen" have disappeared. The other things I was hoping 10.5.2 would fix are the problem FCP cannot remember the keyboard layout I use (azerty-belgium) - every time I start the program I have to choose the layout again - and the fact I cannot export using compressor straight from FCP using qmaster: Final cut pro generated an error! (this has never worked)
    If you are having the same problems as I do, maybe we should compare hardware to see what we have in common that could be causing this problem. As I have found during my searches, some computers have similar problems, others don't, sometimes it also matters if you've upgraded from Tiger of did a clean install, where upgrading it seems (yes really!!) gives the least problems...
    I really hope there will be a bugfix soon, because I'm sure I'm not the only one having these problems... or maybe I should just install Tiger and upgrade...???

    I vote for going back to Tiger. That is known to be stable. Leopard and FCP is unpredictable at the moment.

  • The @ and " are swapped around this only occurs in firefox all other programs it works fine, ive tried changing language but it doesnt help

    internet explorer word etc there isnt a problem

    Solved!
    I had the same problem, which only occurs in Firefox but not in any other program, even another Mozilla browser like SeaMonkey.
    In the Windows XP Control Panel mentioned above (Regional and Language Options > Languages > Text services and input languages > Details...) I have:
    * '''two''' keyboard layouts listed under ''Installed Services'', English UK and English US - in that order. The default is set to English UK
    * under '''Advanced''' tab, ''System Configuration'', I have ''Turn off advanced text services'' '''selected'''.
    I removed the English US keyboard layout which fixes this problem for me.

  • Items Moving on Paper Layout When Other Items are Moved

    I am new to Oracle Reports development, so I apologize for the elementary question in advance. I could not find a solution searching the forum.
    When I am moving a text item on the paper layout editor to reposition it other items are moving along with that item. I have set both the confine and flex properties off. What am I missing here?
    Thanks in advance!
    Kyle

    Problem solved.
    I just realized that the flex should be turned off since this option is used to keep item relations together when one item moves.

  • I have a 3rd generation iPad running iOS7.0.2, and since updating to iOS7, it will not mirror to an AppleTV.  The devices will connect, but the video monitors show only a blank screen.  The AppleTV's work fine with various other iOS & OSX devices. Ideas?

    I have three AppleTV's where I work.  I have two at home.  I have an iPhone 4S running iOS7.0.2 which mirrors smoothly via AirPlay.  I have a 2011 MacBook Pro and a 2011 iMac, both running Mountain Lion, both of which mirror smoothly through AirPlay.  I have a 3rd generation iPad running iOS7.0.2, and since updating to iOS7, it will not mirror.  The iPad will connect to the AppleTV, but the TV's and projectors only show a black screen when connected: the iPad screen looks as it should, except that the transitions become jumpy when connected via AirPlay.  This is true on both networks: at home and at work.  Another gentleman using the network where I work has the most recent iPad, also running iOS7.0.2, and he is having the same problem.  I have tried to "Reset All Settings."  I have tried to "Restore."  Does anyone have any suggestions?  Has anyone else experience difficulty mirroring the iPad through AirPlay since the release of iOS7.0.2?

    No problems exists with the router (on either network described above) or the multiple AppleTV's which are able to mirror multiple other OSX & iOS devices seamlessly. The problem is strictly with the iPad and iOS7.

    Re: AirPlay with AirServer connectivity problem
    Oct 14, 2013 9:43 AM (in response to ceb2652)
    This is an iOS 7 AirPlay mirroring bug...
    To make matters worse, the iPad automatically drops its mirroring session 45 seconds after it auto-locks.
    3-4 mirroring sessions is all it takes for the iPad mirroring to freeze up.
    After this happens, mirroring to an Apple TV only projects a blank screen.
    Once the mirroring is hung, the only way to fix it is to restart the iPad.
    Apple please fix this iOS 7 issue!

  • How to make Outlook 2013 calendar only show specific hours and hide the others that are grayed out

    I’d like to show 7am to 10pm thus allowing the rest of the day to be less cramped vertically on my screen.  I don't want to see all the grayed out hours which are
    outside of business hours.  How can I do this?

    Right click on the time scale and choose the next smaller scale. It may not help much since 7 -10 is a fairly long period, although with 30 min and the ribbon minimized, i see 7a - 11p on a 24" monitor. You may need to set 7 as the start of your business
    day. If you have it set later in options, outlook will start the day at the later time.
    I have screenshots here -

  • Ipad screen turned black in Safari.(only in Safari. other apps are working)

    I was using Youtube through Safari. I clicked a video and made it full screen and then the screen turned black. It didn't show me the usual appearance of a video in Youtube.(the pause button, the progress of the video,etc) Although the games and the apps still work. I tried closing it first then opening it again. when i went back it still shows a black screen with the word Ipad and the time. Does anybody have ideas on how to put it back to its normal self? Please HELP!!!!

    If this is happening using Safari it usually means that Safari has run out of internal Memory and crashes. One way to help Safari would be have as few tabs open as possible.
    Note that the iPad 2 only has 512 MB of internal memory.
    The later iPads have more:
    iPad 3 - 1 GB
    iPad 4 - 1 GB
    iPad Air - 1 GB
    iPad Air 2 - 2 GB

  • Keyboard Characters in Other Languages

    Hi,
    Because I'm starting to forget my first language, Spanish, I decided to turn my system into Spanish. Now, the only problem I have is that a few characters that do appear in English, don't appear in the Spanish layout, such as the "@" sign (I had to go to Edit>Special Characters) to get that sign. Is there an easier way to get that type of symbol in the keyboard?
    Thanks
    Alex

    If you want to change the way the Spanish layout works, you can make a custom layout with Ukelele:
    http://scripts.sil.org/cms/scripts/page.php?siteid=nrsi&itemid=ukelele
    By the way, there is no need to use the Spanish layout to type Spanish. The US layout can make all the Spanish special characters via Option/alt shortcuts. Here is a list:

  • Keyboard input in other languages - How to turn off spell checker?

    I have been trying to send text messages on the iPhone in my native language and it kept replacing all the words with english words. I have tried to turn off the spell checking, but no luck. I have asked the Apple Store employees, no luck there either. How can I type my messages in languages other than english? I don't need a spell checker in my language, I just want an option to turn off the english one.

    Input is essentially English only for this version of the iPhone.
