Other language dictionaries for Mail and fro that matter TextEdit

I live in France, speak Norwegian in addition to English and French but use my Mac with English as its operating language - have guests who need this function.
Are there any available dictionaries that can be installed so as to allow spell checking in Norwegian and French (and German for that matter) - while writing mail or using TextEdit.

As fa as i know this is a missing function in os x,
if you change the System language then you'll have
the spell check in whatever language you want,
otherwise you have to use another mail application,
like entourage which uses the office dictionaries.
If you are really having problems with this, let us know. There's no need to change the system language to use these spellcheckers: Australian, British, and Canadian English, German, Spanish, French, Italian, Dutch, Portuguese, and Swedish. Many other languages can be added with CocoAspell:

  • The default account option in iOS for contacts is missing; while I have multiple account options for mail and contacts are turned on for iCloud and other accounts.

    The default account option in iOS for contacts is missing; while I have multiple account options for mail and contacts are turned on for iCloud and other accounts.  I previously was able to select between my Microsoft Exchange Contacts (work account) and iCloud (personal), but both those options are now gone.  I tried turning contacts for both off and on and rebooting, but it didn't help.  Any ideas?

    Just a guess but if the exchange account is from your employer, your employer may have installed a security profile to your device preventing you from adding or editing contacts in the exchange account by removing the Default Account setting.  You would need to check with your employer's IT department to confirm this.  You could also test this by adding a Gmail account and turning on contacts syncing with Gmail to see if the setting reappears.

  • Restore foreign language dictionaries AppleSpell /Mail

    seems that th monolingual utility cleaned out the dictionaries used Mail and others
    found in (could be my fault in selecting the languages to be removed).
    In /System/Library/Services/AppleSpell.service/Contents/Resources/
    I found only English.lproj (with obviouly only the english dictionary)
    I just copied the missing files (here for Italian) from a clean installation that I did on an external disk.
    e.g. copy
    /Volumes/myexternalDisk/System/Library/Services/AppleSpell.service/Contents/Reso urces/Italian.lproj
    to
    /System/Library/Services/AppleSpell.service/Contents/Resources/Italian.lproj
    reboot made then my spelling checker work again (for Italian)
    I am just wondering if there is an easier way to do this especially if you don't have a "spare" installation?
    Message was edited by: manfred kohl

    You can do a custom install of some features from the installer disk rather than a full install. You can also use the Pacifist utility to open up the installer disk and select individual items, kind of like you did with the spare install but without having to go that far.

  • Additional language dictionaries in Mail

    Can I add extra language dictionaries to Mail? My system is in English, so is Mail's default dictionary, but I sometimes need to write in German and it would be useful to be able to spell-check. Any wisdom, anyone?
    Thanks in advance.

    Belay that last request; I discovered "Multiple Languages", which I wasn't even aware existed... Duh... Oh well, better late than never. Thanks anyway.

  • Language codes for 'english' and 'english-2' must differ?

    I am trying to build my project but as I do I get the following pop up: Compiler: Language codes for 'english' and 'english-2' must differ. What do I need to change?

    You have added a language to your project which you don't need. Look in the outline view at the bottom for the folder called langauges, then delete the second one. Both will be English and this cannot be the case on a DVD - the player will not know which assets to use on a menu if there are two langauges the same.
    The languages are used when you want to create a disc that will display the correct menu backgrounds when used in players in different countries - the DVD player settings will have a language set up, and the DVD will use the appropriate language files to construct the menus accordingly.

    How to Remove “Other” Data from iPhone, iPad and iPod Touch
    http://www.igeeksblog.com/how-to-remove-other-data-from-iphone/
    With an iOS device, the “Other” space in iTunes is used to store things like documents, settings, caches, and a few other important items. If you sync lots of documents to apps like GoodReader, DropCopy, or anything else that reads external files, your storage use can skyrocket. With iOS 5/6/7, you can see exactly which applications are taking up the most space. Just head to Settings > General > Usage, and tap the button labeled Show All Apps. The storage section will show you the app and how much storage space it is taking up. Tap on the app name to get a description of the additional storage space being used by the app’s documents and data. You can remove the storage-hogging application and all of its data directly from this screen, or manually remove the data by opening the app. Some applications, especially those designed by Apple, will allow you to remove stored data by swiping from left to right on the item to reveal a Delete button.

  • How do I remove "other users" folder in mail and on my iPhone

    On one account only I have "other users" folder that lists all of the folders of every user on the server. On my iphone I have to scroll past pages of other user folders to get to any folder named with anything after "O"
    Does anyone know how to get the server to stop showing "other users" in both mail and iphone mail?

    Unfortunately that is really the only work around since
    Comcast uses POP3 and not IMAP like Gmail or
    iCloud.
    I had received an email quite some time ago that they
    were beta testing IMAP with select customers but I doubt
    if it has gone much further than that.

  • How to Use the language function for assignment and validation

    Hi All,
    If anyone can explain me in details with example ,how to use the language function for assignments and validations?
    Thanks
    Arnab

    Hi Arnab,
    The expression is checked only for the current MDM session.
    If u login with the ABC language it will always show the ABC language no matter how many times u execute it.
    Try connecting to the DM with the XYZ language.
    It should go to the if part rather than else.
    Hope it helps.
    Thanks,

  • Looking for a back up drive for photos and videos that works with time machine, prefer wireless. Time capsule has poor reviews and already have BT hub

    Looking for a back up drive for photos and videos that works with time machine, prefer wireless. Time capsule has poor reviews and already have BT hub that serves as a good router. 3gb or 4gb capacity preferred but 2 would suffice.

    Plug a NAS into the BT Hub that does TM. Look at Synology.
    You just use the wireless of the hub.
    But the cheapest solution is still the TC.

  • Junked old macbook for a new one. changed apple id password from a different mac. i want to login and it asks for name and password. no matter what i type i cant seem to login. any way help?

    junked old macbook for a new one. changed apple id password from a different mac. i want to login and it asks for name and password. no matter what i type i cant seem to login. why cant i just enter my apple id and password. or is there a way to change whatever name and password are on the new one from another mac so i can login. anything helps...thanks

    Just open System Preferences>Users & Groups and unlock the preference pane with your root password.
    Set the New Account to be an Administrator and fill in the rest of the data and then click "Create User".
    I would suggest using this user to be YOU with admin capabilities. I wouldn't use the root user - too much damage could occur if you're not sure what you're doing. If you have files, etc., that you want to move to this account, simply but them in the Shared folder - or if you 'rescued' some old files and the like from your 'trashed' MBP, you can put them in your NEW admin account folders.
    Hope I've explained myself well - call back with any questions!

  • Pinyin not working for Mail and some other APPs

    Hi all,
    Now the Pinyin panel (in which one chooses characters) does not show up at all when I try to use either built-in Pinyin simplified or Sougou Pinyin, in Mail and for example Tencent QQ.
    It seems that there is no reaction whichever key I press. Cmd+space to switch methods always work.
    However, all Pinyin input methods work in Safari and other cases in web browsing.
    And the US English input works fine.
    Does anyone have any ideas? Appreciate!
    Cheers,
    Yi

  • ISO web wrapped app(s) for Google Mail and Calendar that have push notifications but don't download any data

    Does anyone know which apps are web wrapped for allowing IMAPing to mail & calendar have push notifications but don't download data to the device?
    Basically, our enterprise would like to allow users to use personal iOS devices to access mail, calendar and contacts (we're on Google Apps).  However, our strict security requirements are such that we need to make sure the app isn't being "overly helpful" and saving the accessed data in a cache or pulling it down to the device in any way. 
    My quick test for checking if apps don't pull down data to reside on the device is to put the device in Airplane Mode.  If you can see your email or calendar
    entries with an app when it's in airplane mode, then it's pulling the data down or caching it in some way. 
    I've tested the Google Gmail app and the Google Apps Browser from G-Whizz and both fail this test since they cache the last mail and/or calendar entries accessed.
    The only legit way for users to access our enterprise mail and calendar is through the browser only.  However, they can't get push notifications or alerts for new emails or from their calendar.  The concern and likely outcome is that users will just set up an account on the native Mail app using IMAP, either knowing and disregarding that it's a security violation or not really understanding that they're committing a security violation.
    I gotta believe there's an app for that. 
    Any help be greatly appreciated!

    The living issue is complex in my case. Legally speaking, I have no personal residence globally. I just live wherever my father goes, which is everywhere. I'm an expat and it seems that these sites aren't really expat-friendly. They seem to be built for localization and assume everyone stays in the same place.
    I don't know what I'd be considered. I'm a US passport holder and live in China, but I only speak some Chinese and I can't read it (it using non-latin characters is just too much for my mind's memory to handle). Besides that, I'm not interested in popular Chinese apps. They tend to just be annoying and kooky and generic and put together badly, often full adware and spyware (speaking for most Chinese software, in fact). In fact, a lot of apps I want are illegal in China (YouTube, Facebook, etc) and I use a VPN to use the services. I assume I wouldn't find these apps on the Chinese store. In fact, last I checked, there wasn't many English apps on the Chinese app store. This is probably due to their strict moderation or something.
    I've been going to international schools since I got here and college would be in English too. I can speak some Chinese, but not read it.
    Well, I guess the answer is that I can't use the App Store in English. So I guess I'll just sign out everything on my phone involving my Apple account and just start using third-party tools to do my business.
