New interface of Chinese Input Method

I don't know if there were any other Chinese / Taiwanese people here on the Apple Communities but I really hated the new input method.
the iOS4 interface of Chinese input method is way better.
i wonder if there were any way i can change it back to the former one???
if there were no way to fix it by oneself ; I hope Apple can changed it back.
btw, does anyone know how to send an advice or suggestion to Apple on certain issue like this??
thanks for anyone who answer my question.

For some strange reason, Apple has decided to replace the old Chinese Handwriting "keyboard" with the new Chinese Stroke "keyboard" when you upgrade to iOS 5. The old input method is actually still there - just go into Settings / General / International Keyboards / Add New Keyboard and select Chinese Traditional (or Simplified) Handwriting. I am using an iPad 2 but hopefully it is the same for an iPhone.

Traditional Chinese input method

I would like to suggest more Chinese input methods should be added in the iPhone 3G.
FOr example, Traditional Chinese 'Jianyi' - 'Simplex', this is more convenient to use than 'pinyin'.
I hope that this will be covered in the new update.

how do you change to chinese input method?
See page 27-28 of the iphone user guide.

The os x lion does not have the Dayi Pro Chinese input method anymore, help!

After I install the OS X Lion, I found out they cancel the Dayi Pro Chinese input method which they used to have in the previous OS version. And the Traditonal Chinese writting pad is not working, can anyone help?

Regarding 10.7 input methods, see

There have been various reports already about problems with the TC handwriting input, but I don't know if anyone has found a fix.

HT5176 What languages are the chinese input methods associated with?

In the help file for iOS Dictation the following paragraph regards to selecting language for dictation
When you want to change the language used for Dictation:
Tap the globe icon to change to the keyboard for that language.
Tap the microphone icon to start Dictation.
Note: To use Dictation, the keyboard language needs to be a supported language. Dictation is designed to recognize the specific accents and dialects of the supported countries listed above. Since every language has its own accents and dialects, the accuracy rate will be higher for native speakers.
Now there are couple chinese input methods for simplified or traditional chinese typing. However, which one relates to "cantonese"? They both use the same characters but with different pronunciation.

Following up, here is the situation:
Using "Chinese Traditional - Changjie" as input method,
1, dictation WILL listen as Cantonese if SIRI is set to Cantonese-Hong Kong
2, dictation defaults to Mandarin if SIRI is set to English
Further testing concluded that regardless of the input method, as long as Siri is set to Cantonese-Hong Kong the dictation can listen to cantonese, and otherwise it cannot.
Is there a way to individually toggle dictation language?

I can't type with Chinese Input Methods in Mail and Notes

Today I suddenly can't type/input any word or character in Mail and Notes
when the input method switches to any Chinese input method like Zhuyin, Yahoo KeyKey and Bopomofo.
Even the cursor won't move when I press the " ↑↓←→"
The keyboard just doesn't work from " ` " to "→" when it comes to Chinese input methods.
However,
the keyboard works well as soon as I switch to English input method and I can type English in Mail and Notes.
I can type with any Chinese input methods in Chrome, TextEdit, Reminder, iPhoto, Contacts,......etc..
Is there something wrong with Mail and Notes?
Could anyone help me solve the problem?
Thank you!

Thank you, Tom.
I have posted my issue there and hope for the best
btw,
I had the same problem (cannot input any word and move the cursor with Chinese input methods) in Evernote.
Evernote Support helped me solve it.
Here is how it works (for Evernote only).
Ticket # 16051-XXXXX
We believe that reinstalling the latest Mac version may address the issue that you reported. Please perform the following steps:
Quit Evernote from the elephant icon in the Menu Bar
Drag the Evernote application to the system Trash
Reboot your Mac
Download and install the latest version of the Mac client:
http://www.evernote.com/about/download/get.php?file=EvernoteMac
When you open the download, make sure to drag the Evernote icon into the Applications folder instead of running it from within the installer package.
Eject the disk image and delete the installer file before you runEvernote.
Let us know how this works for you.
Thank you.

About the Solaris Express 4/6 - Chinese Input Method

I worked on Solaris 10 has long time, I write some articles or reports using StarOffice. In that time , the Chinese input methon has the Sun NewChuYin Input-method , I am very used to the input method. But when I upgrade the OS to Solaris Express 4/6. The input method has insteaded of iiimf. Because my work environment is zh_TW.Big5, I can't use "chewing". Now I feel difficultly in working.
I hope Sun can keep past input-methods and then add some new input methods.
Or can Sun tell me , where is the old input-methods package on Solaris 10 1/6 CD-Rom and its' name? I want to find it and override the package in Solaris Express 4/6.

We hope you can hear our requireme.
In these forums only other users like yourself will hear you. So repeat your request in the channel Apple has set up for that:

Hey Tom,
I did what it is said in Yale website, but it does not work, I even removed all the dictionaries in ROOT directory=,=
I will go to google groups for further info.
Thanks anyway.
But, I mean, these dictionaries or whatever it is which stores the user's previous inputs must be somewhere in the **** disk, I will find out.

Missing chinese input methods

I think I accidentally deleted the input methods for chinese simplified & traditional input for my imac lion, Please let me know where I can download and reinstall? thx

Are they really gone from system preferences/language & text/input sources? Make sure you scroll through the entire list.
If so, I think you will have to reinstall the OS. I don't know how you could possibly delete these without going to a lot of trouble.

How can I reinstall the Chinese input method on Lion

If I can not reinstall it, then how should I rest the input method, clear all learning phrases and all these stuff.
Any ideas? I tried to rm all the files in ~/Library/Dictionaries/, but it did work for me, when I launch the input method, it still has the previous input phrases and frequency suggestiongs. I really want to get rid of that, I need a brand fresh unused input method.

Traditional Chinese Input Method -- Combine characters?

I use OS X's IM to type Chinese characters alot and recently stumbled into an ancient word (was doing some classical literature stuff) which I couldn't find it anywhere using Pinyin or the Character Palette. This word can be made up from two singular word, one on each side. Now my question is, does anyone know a way to 'create' such word or 'combine' two Chinese words to form one single word?
Hope there're some brighter light out here.

There is no way to create Chinese characters which have not been encoded. But the chances are good that it is already available -- you may just need to install a font which covers the CJK Extension B. If you could provide the the unicode values of the two components, I can try to find it in tables I have.

Chinese input method???? need help!!

I just found in the HELP on my 8530, the "typing" section, it says "find more information about typing in other languages" i followed the link but found nothing at all about that...
can somebody help me, please??? thanks!!

I do believe you can use any of the carriers language packs. Blackberry is software is model specific for the most part. There are a few exceptions.
Ill work on putting together some additional instructions to help resolve this. Ill need some time though, I'm not the quickest typist on the Blackberry.
Disclaimer: I'm just a regular user like the rest of you. I have spent a lot of time learning the limitations of the Blackberries to know how to fix most problems. If I have suggested a fix, please give a kudo and mark as a solution!

1. Receive all keyboard input although my program is out of focus.
2. Send chineses character to other program that is on focus.
Please give me some clues or information. Thank you very much !!!!!!!!!!!!!!1

Ive done something recently with another alphabet type you can download it from here and then install it on your system font folder;-
http://www.ethiopar.net/Amharic/download.htm
Then try out this program - its a fully working program - though I've cut out a lot from the full program that won't be of much use to you ie: the jdbc/ database + search parts plus there are 2 other Panels. This is a keyboard and mouse application - Hope it may help and give you some ideas for your project
good luck!
