Multilingual spellcheck - check multiple languages at the same time

Hi guys,
I very often write in two languages - czech and english. I've installed a czech spellcheck library from OpenOffice (basically put the .aff and .dic files into my /Library/Spelling/ folder). Both czech and english spellchecking works fine separately but I definitely don't want to switch the language setting for each piece of text I write every time I start composing something new. I didn't find any other way of checking the spelling in more languages and the "automatic by the language" option obviously means you have to set the language of the document every time, which is quite pain in the *** resulting in not using the spellchecker at all. I don't care about recognition or setting of the language of my documents, I'd be happy with just something like a "merged language library" which would work with both languages combined. Can I do something like this in Leopard?
I went through dozen of old messages from 2008/2009 speaking about some multilingual setting in Tiger and maybe early Leopard but didn't find any solution which would work in current 10.6 OSX. Any advice?

Thanks guys, it's a bit more clear how the spellchecker works now and it seems to me like quite a mess I'll definitely use that form and ask Apple to make this work a bit better.
Anyway, it seems to me that the built-in spellchecker works pretty well for one language on places where I noticed. Do you think it would be possible to create a hybrid language library in the meantime which would contain both my languages, thus doing what I needed until Apple fixes this? I'll use this combined language for checking the spelling, nothing else. Has anyone done such a thing so far?
I haven't tried it but it should be possible if you have access to the a document with all the words.
1. My idea is that you have word processors language set to the you have for the computer.
2. Write a word that is in the other language, select the word and Ctrl click on it > Learn spelling. Do this for about 3 words.
3. Now the computer has created a language file in Users > your name > Library > Spelling. It is probably named cz
4. Open the cz file in TextEdit. You will see the is one word on each line in alphabetical order
5. If you have a list of english word you can add those in the textEdit file. Make sure the words are in alphabetical order. Save the document
6. May this list only will work in the word processing application where you started the custom word list but I don't know. You have to try it.

How to use multiple languages at the same time for spell checking?

I use two different languages all the time and words are mostly so different (English and Finnish) that I could have spell checking on for both languages at the same time.
Now it seem to allow to select only one language at the time and I have to switch back and fort zillion of times per day.

Thanks for the quick answer.
The Dictionary Switcher doesn't seem to work with Finnish language, it doesn't detect it at all to be one of the choices although in the Firefox context menu Languages -> Finnish/Finland is shown.
Also, if it would work, I would need to get rid of multiple EN_* langauges. I just need EN_UK or EN_US, not all 22 different EN_*.
One option would be to create a custom dictionary, which would have words from both languages. The next task is then to find out how to make this kind of custom ENFI-dictionary, which would have words from both English and Finnish languages.
Finnish may be a some kind of special case for spell checking anyway, because the support is in its separate plugin:

How do you check multiple apps at the same time in itunes?

for syncing to the iphone...how can I check more than one app at a time...but not all of them.
I can highlight them, but it doesn't check them.

You have to go to each app that you want to select and select the app. There is no option to highlight/select multiple apps at once to check the highlighted/selected apps to be checked for transfer to your iPhone. By the time you go though and select each app followed by making another selection to check each app, you would already have each app checked.

Apple TV plays two languages at the same time!

Hello,
I ripped some of my DVDs using handbrake. I added two language tracks (original language + my mother tongue).
After adding meta data with subler i also checked both language tracks at subler so they will both appear in itunes.
Everything works fine when i watch the movie on my computer, i can perfectly switch languages in the settings menu.
But wen i stream it to my apple tv (i use itunes on my computer at chose apple tv as streaming device/airplay instead of browsing with the apple tv directly)
it will play both languages at the same time! no matter if i chose a language in itunes or not, it always plays both languages.
Did anyone else have this problem?
Or even a solution?

When an apple tv and an airport express are connected at the same time and the apple tv is powered on, the itunes multiple speakers feature will show both the express and the apple tv. you can select either, or both using the multiple speakers option.

Can you opening multiple albums at the same time in Photo (not iPhoto)?

When converting the iPhoto library to Photo most of the albums that were in place in iPhoto converted to albums in Photo . . . .but not all. Some were retained as events mainly those that were folders within an album. In order to move them to the right album I would like to have multiple albums open at the same time (side by side) so that I can make sure not to duplicate photos or move them to the wrong spot.
I cant see how to do this, it seems that I can need to open one album and check phots and then close to look within and other and rely on memory. There must be a more efficient and accurate way to do this?

All of the events in iPhoto were converted to albums and are located in the Folder titled iPhoto Event in the sidebar of Photos.
You can't open multiple albums at the same time. You can create a smart album that will do essentially the same thing with the following criteria:
Album is "A"
Album is "B".
The smart album will display all of the photos in those two albums.

How does iCal, or Calendar, order the display of multiple events for the same time?

I can't for the life of me figure out how iCal orders the display of multiple items at the same time. Does anyone have a clue? It's not alphabetical. It's not according the the order of the calendars in the left pane. Is it just random? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

In the focus lost eventhandling start a thread which does
the actual handling.
the new thread waits for a little time (0.1 seconds)
the click event of the button checks for a thread like the one above and tells it not to execute
This way you execute the for the lost focus event only if
the ok button isn't clicked in the same process ... not
realy good, because it kind of relies on the ordering of threads ... but maybe it still works for you?

Can I export multiple folders at the same time, keeping the album structure

I'm exporting all of my photos from 2010 so far. Is there a way to export multiple folders at the same time, while keeping the existing album structure? It seems that when I try it, iPhoto exports them all to the same folder.
I really don't want to do this one album at a time, and here's why -
I'd like to select all of the albums, then export, using the plugin, to WalMart so that I can order prints.

Check out [iPhotoToDisk|http://www.iphototodisk.com/index.html]
I'd like to select all of the albums, then export, using the plugin, to WalMart so that I can order prints.
Why not upload to Walmart from iPhoto? Check out the first option here:
There are many, many ways to access your files in iPhoto:
*For Users of 10.5 and later*
You can use any Open / Attach / Browse dialogue. On the left there's a Media heading, your pics can be accessed there. Command-Click for selecting multiple pics.
Uploaded with plasq's Skitch!
(Note the above illustration is not a Finder Window. It's the dialogue you get when you go File -> Open)
You can access the Library from the New Message Window in Mail:
Uploaded with plasq's Skitch!
*For users of 10.4 and later* ...
Many internet sites such as Flickr and SmugMug have plug-ins for accessing the iPhoto Library. If the site you want to use doesn’t then some, one or any of these will also work:
To upload to a site that does not have an iPhoto Export Plug-in the recommended way is to Select the Pic in the iPhoto Window and go File -> Export and export the pic to the desktop, then upload from there. After the upload you can trash the pic on the desktop. It's only a copy and your original is safe in iPhoto.
This is also true for emailing with Web-based services. However, if you're using Gmail you can use iPhoto2GMail
If you use Apple's Mail, Entourage, AOL or Eudora you can email from within iPhoto.
If you use a Cocoa-based Browser such as Safari, you can drag the pics from the iPhoto Window to the Attach window in the browser.
*If you want to access the files with iPhoto not running*:
For users of 10.6 and later:
You can download a free Services component from MacOSXAutomation which will give you access to the iPhoto Library from your Services Menu. Using the Services Preference Pane you can even create a keyboard shortcut for it.
For Users of 10.4 and later:
Create a Media Browser using Automator (takes about 10 seconds) or use this free utility Karelia iMedia Browser
Other options include:
1. *Drag and Drop*: Drag a photo from the iPhoto Window to the desktop, there iPhoto will make a full-sized copy of the pic.
2. *File -> Export*: Select the files in the iPhoto Window and go File -> Export. The dialogue will give you various options, including altering the format, naming the files and changing the size. Again, producing a copy.
3. *Show File*: Right- (or Control-) Click on a pic and in the resulting dialogue choose 'Show File'. A Finder window will pop open with the file already selected.

Is there any version of Indesign that allows to open multiple instance at the same time

I am using Indesign CS3 to generate the bulk reports automatically(programmatically) using Adobe indesign library . One of the key limitation to this tool is it allows to open only one instance at a time unlike word where multiple instances can be opened at the same time. Is there any adobe indesign too version desktop/server which allows to open multiple instances at the same time. Any help on is appreciated. Thanks.

@PeterG
You said "You might want to examine the End User Licensing Agreement (EULA) for any prohibition against using these two instances at the same time with the same license; the license does permit two installs for the same user that are not used simultaneously." I thought that meant you had read the EULA. It's pretty unambiguous on that point.
For everyone's edification about multiple installations and server use with a standard license here's the relevant text:
2. Software License.
If you obtained the Software and any required serial number(s) from Adobe or one of its authorized
licensees and as long as you comply with the terms of this agreement, Adobe grants you a non-exclusive
license to install and use the Software in a manner consistent with its design and Documentation and as
further set forth below. See Section 16 for specific provisions related to the use of certain products and
components, for example font software, Acrobat, After Effects, Adobe Presenter, Contribute, Adobe
Device Central, Flash Player, Flash Builder, and Adobe Runtimes.
2.1 Limited Use. The Software, or portions of the Software, may allow installation and use without a serial
number. If so, you may install but not use such non-serialized Software on any number of Computers as
part of an organizational deployment plan. Further, you may install and use such non-serialized Software
on any number of Computers for demonstration, evaluation and training purposes only and only if any
Output Files or other materials produced through such use are used only for internal, non-commercial and
non-production purposes. You may not use such non-serialized Software after any applicable time-out
period has ended, unless you input a valid serial number under Section 2.2. ACCESS TO AND USE OF
ANY OUTPUT FILES CREATED WITH SUCH NON-SERIALIZED SOFTWARE IS ENTIRELY AT
YOUR OWN RISK.
2.2 General Use. You may install and use one copy of the Software only on the Permitted Number of your
compatible Computers into which you enter a valid serial number.
2.3 Distribution from Server. You may copy an image of the Software onto Computer file server(s) within
your Internal Network for the purpose of downloading and installing the Software onto Computers within
the same Internal Network for use as permitted by Section 2.1 and 2.2.
2.4 Server Use. You may install the Software on Computer file server(s) within your Internal Network only
for use of the Software initiated by an individual from a Computer within the same Internal Network only
as permitted by Section 2.2. The total number of users (not the concurrent number of users) able to use the
Software on such Computer file server(s) may not exceed the Permitted Number.
By way of example, the foregoing does not permit you to install or access (either directly or through
commands, data or instructions) the Software: (a) from or to a Computer not part of your Internal Network,
(b) for enabling Web hosted workgroups or services available to the public, (c) by any individual or entity

processing).
2.5 Portable or Home Computer Use. Subject to the important restrictions set forth in Section 2.6, the
primary user of the Computer on which the Software is installed under Section 2.2 (“Primary User”) may
install a second copy of the Software for his or her exclusive use on either a portable Computer or a
Computer located at his or her home, provided that the Software on the portable or home Computer is not
used at the same time as the Software on the primary Computer.
2.6 Restrictions on Secondary Use by Volume Licensees. If the Software was obtained under an Adobe
volume license program (currently known as Adobe Open Options) by any licensee other than an
educational volume licensee, the second copy of the Software made under Section 2.5 must be used solely
for the benefit and business of that volume licensee. For more information about secondary use by volume
licensees, please visit our Web Site at http://www.adobe.com/go/open_options.
There is also language stating that if you have a dual boot or other system capable of running more than one OS you will need a separate license for each platform if you want to run the software on more than one.

Does af:commandButton submit multiple requests at the same time?

Hi experts,
I have a question about af:commandButton behavior.
I have two commandButtons in a page. They are button1 and button2.
Button1 takes a few seconds to complete its request process.
So when I click button1, I can click button2 although button1 request is still being processed.
I checked how ADF faces handled this situation with servlet filter.
And I saw that button2 request was always submitted after button1 request was completed.
Due to this behavior, I would assume that commandButton is designed not to submit multiple requests at the same time and guarantees click order.
However I couldn't found any documents specifying this feature of commandButton.
If anyone knows it, could you share?
I know ADF Faces has busyStateListener to prevent user inputs during request round trip.
But I'd like to make it sure that I don't need to use busyStateListener if I just want to keep processing order.
Regards,
Atsushi

Hi,
Does anyone know the document specifying the behavior of af:commandButton in case I click two buttons in a page almost simultaneously?
Any help will be much appreciated.
Thanks in advance,
Atsushi

Can you use sync on multiple computers at the same time? ie have someone else logged into your firefox account for you whilst you are also logged in

I am trying to sign up to something but there is only a short window so was going to ask a friend to sign in at the same time using my account to try to sign up (with my password being saved into my firefox account)

Hi. Yes, you can use Sync on multiple devices at the same time. I use it to keep my bookmarks in sync across my desktop and Android versions of Firefox.

CRVS2010 - open multiple rpts at the same time, like sheets in a xls file ?

Hi all,

Is that possible create tabs beside the MainReport tab ? or include reports in the Group Tree ? how can I do it ?
The application is in asp.net with VS2010 and CR2010.
The reports used to be in excell with three sheets and now we are migrating them to crystal reports, how can I create the report with those three sheets ?
thanks !

I'll make the suggestion to the Program Management group.
You may want to do a post to the [Crystal Reports Design|SAP Crystal Reports; forum and ask them how they's fake that sort of a requirement. E.g.; there may be some way to make this report look the way you want, but it will be best to ask the experts. Don't mention CRVS2010 as they don't support it and most likely you will not get an answer.

How to support multiple users at the same time?

Hi all,
I have a Labview software which controls a analyzer via GPIB connector. When user A is using the software, user B has to wait until A is done. But actually, the analyzer is not very busy, when user A is using the software.
I want user A, B, C and D can use the software at the same time. just like we can open Multiple websites at the same time.
How can I program the software, so that the software can be open multiple times? Do you have any example?
Thanks a lot.
Steven
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Are all the users going to be measuring the exact same thing from the same instrument?
It would be possible to write a separate instrument server application that would handle all the direct interactions with the instrument. When one of the users needed to access the instrument, they would gain access to it through this server.
The big, Big, BIG caveat is that each interaction with the instrument would need to be atomic. In other words each access would need to configure the instrument, initiate the reading, report the results, and then reset the instrument back to some known default value.
As Dennis said, not a trivial process, but probably do-able...
