No longer see street names in local language after...

In WP8, I can have English as the Phone Language and Chinese as the Browser & Search Language, and see street names in Chinese in Here Maps and Here Drive, as i'm in a Chinese-spoken country. However, after upgrade to 8.1, I can no longer enjoy the benefit of dual languages, as when i have English as the phone language, the street names are all displayed in English (not exactly the correct name in Chinese) and voice navigation would sound funny... Any way i can get the dual language capability back? I've tried different country/format setting but none works... Thank you. 

Not really. I previously tried that already. I added Chinese (Taiwan) and moved up pre-existing English as the phone language. Also set navigation voice in Here Drive+ to Chinese. Result:
1. Street names still shows in English (it goes with phone language obviously), like "Da Xing Rd." However, some landmarks will show in both languages. 
2. Navigation voice is in Chinese but all the street names are announced in English, so e.g. "Da Xing Rd." is announced as "Da-Sing-R-D". ("St." will be announced as "S-T"...) (This is the same as in WP8)
Thank you.

  • Can No Longer See User Folder in Intrnl Drive after transferring to Ext Drv

    I'm trying very hard not to freak out right now, but I can no longer see my User Folder/Home in the Finder Bar after dragging and dropping it into the my newly formatted Seagate External Drive. I have OS 10.4.11 and am trying to install Snow Leopard, but before I do I wanted to back-up my hard drive. So I plugged in the Seagate, formated it for Macs, and then dragged and dropped he User Folder into the Seagate and now it is gone!
    Would greatly appreciate advice on how to find the User Folder so I can return it to the Internal Drive AND help on how to properly copy it to the Seagate External Drive as I have been unsuccessful.
    Many thanks!

  • Cannot see NAS on my local network by its name (Linksys EA4500)

    Hello,
    I have just bought a new EA4500 and set it up at home. Most things worked like a charm except one. I can no longer see my Synology NAS on my home network byt its name.
    I have the router connected to internet (local ISP, PPPoE). I have the NAS connected by wire, two Windows 8 PCs connected wirelessly. There is also a TV (wired connection), a printer, some Windows Phones and Kindles. One of the PC cannot see the NAS (the other can). It can connect to it by its IP (in browser, by ping), it can see its media server (I can play music from the NAS in my Media Player), the TV sees the NAS as DLNA media server... But the PC cannot see the NAS by its name.
    If I list connected devices on the router settings, I can see the NAS and its name. But the PC cannot. What is wrong?
    Both PCs have file sharing turned on. I have even SSH'd to the NAS ind successfully pinged the PC by its name. For full disclosure, the PC has VMWare installed with Windows 7 virtual machine.
    I made no settings to the router other than going through the Cisco Connect wizard and disabling guest wifi.
    Thank you very much for any suggestions.
    Solved!

    Thank you. Restarting everything didn't help. It happed to be solved by itself later on. I was fiddling with wifi settings and set (and unset) FIPS. Then it worked. No idea if it was a coincidence.

  • I can no longer see my account name, but get a Guest user account, I can no longer see my account name, but get a Guest user account

    I can no longer see my account name so I can gain access to my information, but now all I get is a Guest user account and it won't let me log into that account. All it lests me do is re-start the computer and use it in restricted mode. Can someone please help me!

    Recommendation for your consideration
    Hopefully your original user account was an "administrator". I have two admin accts in case one admin. acct gets "trashed.
    Lets see what other forum members offer: my solution requires use of terminal and works. CLI (Command Line Interface) might be intimidating for you but we'll see what others possibly offer.
    As I say the solution I have works well and will allow you to create new user(s) replacing your former users whatever type they were. I promise to check back today if no solution to you is offered...

  • I have 3 iTunes libraries on my one one computer and since I updated to the new version I can no longer see who's library I am in. It used to show at the top of iTunes the name of the library I was in.  Is there a way I can tell which library I am in?

    No. Frequently the apps take up more storage space on the iPod that the file download size.

    I couldn't find the edit button on my original post so I am posting an update here.
    I have gone through more apps and have had good luck on all but one more.  And it's not that the app doesn't work, I am talking about the Yahoo Weather app, It works fine, but when you swipe between cities the screen lags a bit and it sometimes doesn't move between pages the way it should.  On iOS 7.1.2 it was smooth as butter but on iOS 8.0, not so much.  I will post a note in the app store to let them know.  I really like the Yahoo app better than the new stock app.
    I have been going through my games and they all work fine. Angry Birds (Original and Stella), Canabalt, Minecraft, Bejeweled 2, Silly Walks, PopWords, Doodle Jump, Deep Green all seem to work just fine. 
    Starbucks app works as it should. 
    I will stop back again next week after I have had the weekend to play with it in detail and post my thoughts again.

  • How can i get the map app to show Spanish street and avenue names in that language ... not in English

    i have ipad 4th gen and ipad original ... using both in Bogota Colombia thru the Colombian Apple Store.  I have the map app in spanish on the ipad original but cannot change the ipad 4 map app to show the streets (calles), avenues (carreras / avenidas) in spanish ... such as Calle 100 .. or Avenida Suba, etc.
    i have changed "always english" to off, changed the overall language to Spanish, rebooted, etc, etc ... but to no avail. 
    Please assist
    Thank you

    @Peizoandme ... that i have done and that results in changing the tag info language ... direction -> direccion but the map itself does not change ... shows the street name as Street 100 rather than Calle 100 ... what this all causes is when trying to establish routes from home to pin drop for example, message is cannot find.  So, still stumped.  Thanks for the reply though. 

  • HT5429 Changing language of street names in Apple maps

    How can I change my street names to French or English instead of Flemish?

    The names of streets should show up in whatever languge is official or predominant for the locale (meaning if you look at a map of France, it will show street names in french). There is a Map Label setting in the Settings app for maps, but I don't beleive it will effect street names.

  • I can no longer see my iPods names with the new look iTunes and also don't know where to sync it when I've added songs.

    The old  version I could see the name of my iPod but now I can't! I also used to be able to sync my iPod but I can't see anywhere to do this now! Any help greatfully received!

    The main differences between iTunes 11 and earlier versions are the loss of coverflow and ability to have multiple windows open.
    In Windows, you can restore much of the look & feel of iTunes 10.7 with these shortcuts:
    ALT to temporarily display the menu bar
    CTRL+B to show or hide the menu bar
    CTRL+S to show or hide the sidebar
    CTRL+/ to show or hide the status bar (won't hide for me on Win XP)
    Click the magnifying glass top right and untick Search Entire Library to restore the old search behaviour
    Use View > Hide <Media Kind> in the cloud or Edit > Preferences > Store and untick Show iTunes in the cloud purchases to hide the cloud items. The second method eliminates the cloud status column (and may let iTunes start up more quickly)
    If you don't like having different coloured background & text in the Album (Grid) view use Edit > Preferences > General and untick Use custom colours for open albums, movies, etc.
    With iTunes 11.0.3 and later you can enable artwork in the Songs view from View > Show View Options (CTRL+J) making it more like the old Album List view
    View > Show View Options (CTRL+J) also contains options to change the sorting of grid based views
    Turning on the sidebar should make things easier.

  • "Finnish with street names" not available in the p...

    Hi all! I just bought a Nokia 5230. I used the Nokia Ovi Suite to upload one additional voice to the phone: Finnish with street names (Suomi katujen nimillä). The upload was successful ( I even checked the memory card). However this voice option is not available on the phone in the Ovi Maps Settings (not for walking or driving). Help!
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    I got it working by accident. I have the maps 3.0.4 beta and the finnish voices with street names work with it. I don't if it needs 3.0.4 beta or if the maps needs some kind of reset.
    I had speeding camera problems with maps and installed the maps several times, see
    /t5/Maps-Navigation-and-GPS/Nokia-5230-Safety-Cameras/td-p/679555
    I checked the cities/diskcache/voices directory and the finnish_tts directory had contents, but I was unable choose it from the menus. There is some kind reset problem, when new data is downloaded.
    I can't test if following works, but try it. If it does not work try reinstalling the software after you have deleted the cities-directory and qf file as described in the other post with link above.
    Turn off the driving and walking guidance. Close the map application. Start the map application and use the navigation with a target. Close the navigation and maps application and restart the maps and see I you can find the driving navigation language finnish with street names (suomi - katujen nimillä). 
    If that does not help then try the delete/install procedure. I don't know if it works with 3.0.3 or if you need the 3.0.4 beta.
    I think the maps application needs some kind of refresh or reset or factory settings function.
    BTW, the swedish location names pronounced in finnish (like in motorway exits) are sometimes funny, Mikko's (the voice) swedish is even worse than mine.

  • ITunes 11: In the store, I can no longer sort by name/artist/album

    I can no longer sort by name or artist or album when I'm in the store with iTunes 11.  Yes, I discovered the View Options in the Menu Bar. By when I select it nothing opens. Same for Command-J. It doesn't do anything either. I've tried hitting Command-J repeatedly, but nothing.
    The fact is, it seems utterly stupid to have this work differently than when you're in your library---by simply hitting name/artist or album in the bar at the top of the list. Having to sort lists in the Store via a completely different method than the lists in one's library is totally counter-intuitive.
    But back to my problem:  The View Options won't open for me. Anybody know how to fix this?
    I've got a lot of music I wish to buy, but I need different methods of sorting, otherwise it'll be a nightmare trying to keep track of things.
    Thanks,

  • I can no longer see the account balance on my iTunes gift card.  Why?

    Where can I find the account balance from my iTunes gift card, on my macbook pro, in the iTunes store?

    Thank you responding.  (you're the only response I received).  I did, and was doing, as you suggested.  Before the latest iTunes update, I was able to see my account balance (a whopping $9.98), but can no longer see the amount.  I've tried logging out and back into iTunes to no avail.  Same goes on my iPhone and iPod, and iPad.  The system keeps asking for credit card info, but I'm hesitant to do that.  (That's why we purchase iTunes gift cards, isn't it ?) !
    Anyway, Thank you for your assistance.  Next stop is the local Apple Store and see what the Genus bar can do. !!
