"On date , name wrote..." vs. language settings

Hi all,
I'm using Mac OS X usually with German language settings. However, I often write emails in English. Unfortunately Mail.app insists on using German phrases like "Am <date> <name> schrieb..." instead of "On <date>, <name> wrote...". Is there a way to set this language behaviour independently from the language of the user interface?
Thanks,
spezi

Hmmm. It is probably not totally impossible, though whether it is worth the effort I don't know. You can change the content of the attribution strings, as described in this hint, so it should be possible to knock up a little script that would swap between two (or more) languages fairly easily. I don't know if it would be necessary to restart mail. If you could get the script to change the spelling language too, then you would have what you need. I know how to do it manually (Shift-Command-: and pick your language) but you would need to find out what system setting is actually being changed.

Default language settings in SAP Integration Kit?

Hi everybody,
I've the following problem:
If I create a report with the SAP Integration Kit (create new report from a query) I get a prompt where I can type in (System Number, User, Password and LANGUAGE). If I now choose as language u201CEnglishu201D and create a report, save it and open it in crystal again, everything is still fine. But if I go to refresh the report, I get a prompt where I can choose the SAP BW and type in the System Number, User and Password but not the LANGUAGE. After the refresh the names of the fields are still in English but the data is now in German (or just the technical names, depends on the language settings in the query).
For me it looks like that the language settings of the refresh are by default in crystal is set to German, but the software is English. I didnu2019t find any way to change the default language to English or save it in the report.
I already tried to change the language/regional/keyboard settings of my machine and also tried to change the language in the crystal formula field u201Clanguagecode%u201D.
But even if I could have a unique change in some system settings, it really will not help me, because I have some queries in German and some in English, depending on the actual BW system.
If the SAP Integration Kit gives me the possibility to choose the language during the creation of the report it should then remember the choice!?
Thank you for your help

SIU - Apply Computer Name and Local Hostname settings from a file

I am setting up a workflow to image corporate computers and wanting to know how the "Apply Computer Name and Local Hostname settings from a file" works in the Apply System Configuration Settings task.
We bind the computer to AD and OD and we have a specific naming convention for certain departments and trying to automate the entire imaging process.
Would this be something that can be done with SIU?

Well, maybe there's a bug in the latest version (10.5.3) of SIU as this is not what is happening.
It doesn't seem to matter what I specify for the name parameters I end up with a Bonjour name of ".local".
I put in a line of the form <Mac Address><TAB>tom<TAB>dick<TAB>harry into the text file used by the Apply System Configuration Settings Action.
and end up with hostname = tom, Computer Name = dick and Bonjour Name = .local
I'm building the NetInstall image on a new iMac running 10.5.3 booted out of a second partition and create the image from the main boot partition (also 10.5.3). I then copy the image to my server (10.5.3) and make a second iMac boot up from the NetInstall image.
For what it is worth the Workflow Actions I am using are:
Define Image Source
+ NetInstall
Source: Macintosh HD
Filter Clients by MAC Address
+ Allow
<List of MAC Addresses>
Enable Automated Installation
+ On Volume Named: Macintosh HD
+ Erase before installing
+ Primary Language: English
Apply System Configuration Settings
+ Apply Computer Name and Local Hostname settings from a file: <FILE>
Add Packages and Post-Install Scripts
+ Shell Script [Doesn't work - we're discussing in it in another thread]
Create Image

[BO XI 3.0] - Strange behavior regarding language settings

Hello,
I found strange behavior BOE in infoview portal. We have Desktop intelligence documents published in repository and when we open report (first time) in infoview we have right format for date and numbers e.g. dd.mm.yyyy, 123.123,00.
When we close this report and open once again the format is en-US e.g. mm/dd/yyyy 123,123.00 and this is wrong. We log out and log in and open this report but no change.
If we restart services in cmc (deski services) then the first time is report ok and when we open again this report the same error.
SW:
Windows server 2003 sp2 - english (regional settings - slovenian)
BOE premium ( BO XI R 3.0 => the same problem in BO XI 3.1)
CMS database => Oracle 10gR2 (nsl lang SLOVENIAN_SLOVENIA.EE8MSWIN1250)
Language settings in infoview we check => use browser locale and slovenian
Thank you for reply!
In BOE R2 works fine...
Regards,
Gregor

Hi Gregor,
Try the following option.
Find the file i8ln.xml in the location
"<install directory of BO>\Program Files\Business Objects\BusinessObjects Enterprise 12.0\win32_x86\scripts\"
Take a backup of the file and make the follwing changes.
Find the following code in the file
activate_languages>
<state value="0"/>
<State value="0" cs_lang="Bulgarian"/>
<State value="0" orig_lang="" cible_lang="Bulgarian"/>*
<State value="0"/>
</activate_languages>
Replace it with:
<activate_languages>
<state value="0"/>
<State value="1" cs_lang="English (Australian)"/>
<State value="1" orig_lang="" cible_lang="English (Australian)"/>*
<State value="1"/>
</activate_languages>
Save the file.
Restart your Desktop Intelligence servers. It might take a bit of time to pick up the changes.
Note: If you start Deski after this change, and go to "Tools > Options", you will see a disabled language button with "English(....)" written on it.

Anisa

Language settings with problems...

Hi form Switzerland
My new iPhone 3G S was activated by a italien speaking reseller...
I speak german...
so I changed all language settings to german...
everything looks fine, only the menu-bar of the apple-store (down in the page) still is in italien...
I found no way to change this...
thank's for help

It's probably using your friend's Apple Store account.

Time Capsule error 22 - My time capsule was working fine and didn't notice anything wrong with it until it stopped backing up about two weeks ago. I never changed anything like computer names or the Airport settings. All I get is the following: The backup

Time Capsule error 22 - My time capsule was working fine and didn't notice anything wrong with it until it stopped backing up about two weeks ago. I never changed anything like computer names or the Airport settings. All I get is the following:
The backup disk image "/Volumes/Data/Linda's Computer 1.sparsebundle" could not be created (error 22).
I tried resetting the Time Capsule and connecting with an ethernet cable, although the Ariport Utility says everything is working fine through WiFi.

If the light will not turn on the TC is dead. No matter that the hard disk is running.. it should only run at start up or when it is accessed not constantly.. that means the board in the TC has failed. Apple do not repair them.. They will replace it under warranty or applecare.
If you have gone over the 12month warranty it will still be covered if you have applecare on any computer or an Apple TV. In fact the cost of the apple TV plus apple care is still cheaper than buying a new TC.. so it is a route some people are taking.. certainly depends.. in some places like Europe or Australia now, there is a recognition that statutory warranty must be longer on a product that is premium to the market. 12months is not good enough. Apple will sometimes listen.
They might be fixable but I do not know how.

Browser language settings

Hi,
In browser I have language settings as follows:
Czech(cs)
English(en_us)
My application does not support Czech and Iam getting labels broken string as lables (??xy.user.name??).
Can the application load english or default language properties if czech or selected language properties are not available?
If so what are the changes need to be made from application end.
Thanks,
mvrk

Hi,
Java's ResourceBundle provides you a way to fallback to JVM's default locale(i.e. Locale.getDefault()) and load the properties file for the default locale, if it does not find the resource bundle for the specified locale(e.g. Czech). You can make use this API. Please go through the Java API for details.
Also, for your web application you can design a locale fallback mechanism to determine the locale for a user session (if it is required in your application).
So that the determined locale is used as a parameter to load resource bundles as well as perform any other locale sensitive operations.
Hope this helps.

Which plist is 'Text & Language' settings stored?

Apples Developers in all their infinite wisdom have made changes to the way 'Text & Language' settings are configured in Mountain Lion, in my opinion, for the worse.
They have unified the settings pretty much in line with the way iOS4 was written.
The problem:
I want a Computer and iPhone that has everything in the English language.
But if I set the region settings to 'Malaysia', because that's where I live, Apple believes that it would be great to see the time/calendar in the Malay language.
Well....I don't, and they don't give me the choice.
My system preferences were carried over from Lion prior to upgrading to Mountain Lion, where Malaysia regional settings continued to display time/calendar in English and I want to get that back, however, now that I've selected 'Malay' > 'Malaysia' from the region settings in Mountain Lion, there's no turning back.
The only think I can think of is to recover the plist from a time-machine backup, but don't know which plist the Text & Language settings are stored in.
Can anyone point me to the correct plist?
I wish Apple hadn't made this stupid change to OS X 10.8 and iOS4++
Calendar and Time should be in the system language.
Our neighbour, Singapore (same makeup of population, Malay, Chinese, Tamil, Other) have English calendar and time when region settings are set to Singapore. Why couldn't Apple get it right for Malaysia?
So many Malaysian colleagues of mine using iPhones have their region settings to either UK or US because they don't like the way Malaysia's region settings are defined. I'm guessing users of Mountain Lion will be doing the same thing.
I love Apple's products, but this is just one little thing that is actually so annoying.
Many thanks for any help

I don't understand, maybe:
In System Preferences, Language & Text...
...under Language, you can move English to the top of the list. So then everything in system and apps is English, provided the apps have English localization.
...under Text, you can select a specific spelling, independently.
...under Region, you can select a region, but of course you only select a regional FORMAT, so naturally, if you pick Malaysia, you get Malaysian format. So, in your case you better pick a "more English style" region. See, if you were German and preferred to see German date and number formats, you'd select that no matter where you live.
E.g. I am German, live in Singapore, but speak English, and my Mac always did - and continues to do - everything I want it to: English is the main language in system and apps, as region I chose Singapore to start with (not because I live here but because I want the Singaporean date and currency view), so I get "English everything" and in the basic format I need or want, but I customized the "Times" view to get rid of AM/PM and have 24hr format instead, all in the Gregorian calendar.
Analog, you could pick the basic regional format you prefer (like U.S., UK, or Australia), then customize e.g. Numbers and Currency to match Ringgits.
No problem, and independent on wherever you really are, the time zone you're in, etc etc.
...and independent also on what keyboard layout you're using and specifying under Input Sources.
So, the key is (a) picking the right basic (regional) format for your needs, then (b) customizing it where required for where you live, e.g. currency. Done.
Yes, your colleagues are doing it right, and AFAIK it's been like this in OS X at least since 10.4...

CUP 5.3 SP8 - Language Settings/Language on Requestor Screen

CUP Experts/Users,
We are on CUP 5.3 SP8. There are several issues related to language
settings within CUP. Our default language in Configuration->Miscellaneous is English.
- When a Requestor logs on to create in a language other than English,
most of the fields within CUP are translated to that language. However,
some values are not translated to that language. For example, we have
created 3 priority levels; High, Medium, and Low. When a Requestor logs
in in Spanish to create a request in Spanish, they are still
seeing "High, Medium, and Low." So obviously CUP is not translating
these values for us...But I am not seeing anywhere in configuration where I
can put the Spanish version of these values? Also, when I create a
custom field, this value too is not getting translated and I see no
where in configuration where I can do this? Any ideas?
- When a Requestor logs on to create in a language other than English,
the SAP menus still remain in our default langauge of English.
Shouldn't these be translated to the user's requested language? For
example, when a user creates a request and chooses the language of
Spanish and gets logged in, the values on the left-side control panel
still read:
Request Access
Request Status
Support
User Login
Shouldn't these be converted to Spanish? Is this a bug?
A greater understanding of CUP languages and language settings would
also be greatly appreciated.
Thanks!
Jes Behrens

That certainly makes sense. I didn't expect CUP would have a smart language translator
So the question is; how do I enter data/create configuration pieces in multiple languages?
For example, If I create a custom Request Type called "Change Production Security," I want to be able to enter this for multiple languages, i.e. when a someone logs in in Spanish it would show the Spanish version of that Request Type. Currently, I see no where to do this in configuration and this is a a pretty important step.
The static Request Types that come with CUP, such as "Change Account," comes in different languages. So somewhere in CUP table, there's an entry for "Change Account" in various languages. How do I access this table? Is there a tool I can use to even find this table? Is this even possible?
Thanks again!
Jes Behrens

Ufoai-data might be missing language files

Wanted to report this as a bug on the bug tracker, but the bug tracker doesn't let me register myself, so here I am.
I have a problem with the new release of UFO: AI (version 2.4). ufoai-data might be missing language files. I don't have (nearly) any text in UFO: AI, no story introduction (besides "introduction_sentence_1"), no Ufopedia entry (it says something like "grenade_launcher_txt") and no mail text (only says "mail_txt"). An ufo: ai dev thinks, that the packager might have forgot to build the language files.
Could someone confirm, that there is a problem and that it is the missing language files? Thanks.

Just in case anyone is still having this issue running ufoai, also make sure to check in your in-game settings that language is set to "English" or whatever language you like. My was set to "No Language" by default, and changing the exec line is absolutely neccessary even if you select a language.
In XFCE, I went to /usr/share/applications directory and edit ufoai.desktop as root.
Change the line "Exec=ufo" to "Exec=/usr/bin/ufo +set fs_i18ndir /usr/share/ufoai/base/i18n/"
Then restart from your menu and set your language. You are good to go.
Thought this might be helpful, sometimes ingame settings are easy to overlook.
