Permanently set spelling language

I can't find a way to permanently set the language for spell check to "Australian English". I can do it temporarily, on a single page, but I want to make that my default. Any ideas?

There are some general feedback pages at http://www.apple.com/feedback/ but nothing specifically for Safari ....

The only choices you have in the iPad itself are to change the keyboard or change the user interface language. If that doesn't do what you want, probably best ask the people who make Papers.

Spelling Language

Hi,
Pages uses English (US) as the default spelling language in new documents and in new text objects.
I know how to change this on an item by item basis to British English.
Is there a way of changing this permanently so the default is always British English?
Thanks in advance,
Marios

I have to add my voice to this. My System Preferences, International, Language is set to "English", with the region to British English (which of course always seems an odd statement to an Englishman..!).
All my Macs are similarly configured, and all have the same problems with Pages '08 reverting to American English. All the Macs' copies of Tiger and iWork '08 have been fully patched according to System Update.
Apple - please can you look at this; the workarounds offered are just that: the correct regional location data doesn't appear to be observed consistently.

MS Word changes spelling language - how to fix, how to stop. (Macbook Pro. Maverick OSX)

My macbook in MS word and Pages changes language spelling dictionaries to some unknown langauge (to me), and I am unable to switch back to U.S. English.
I have checked the Global/macbook settings and its correctly set for English.
But in MS Word, I am not given the choice.
I see many have had similar problems in the user groups, but I don't see the solution that applies to me.
Any suggestions?

MS Word and Pages use totally different spellcheck systems.
For Pages, you set the language Edit > Spelling and Grammar > Show Spelling and Grammar
For Word, you set it in Tools > Language

Set a language on the portal application

Dear All,
How I can write code to set a language on the portal application?
thanks in advance,
Marcelo Osako

Hi Marcelo,
I assume you mean how to change language for a single iView only. For changing overall language, the user can just go to the portal personalize page.
For an iView, you can do a lookup of the iView and change the language, like so:
InitialContext iCtx = null;
String personalHello = "portal_content/DanielContent/DanRole/danWS/hello";
try {
   iCtx = new InitialContext(env);
   IiView myIView = (IiView)iCtx.lookup(personalHello);
   myIView.putAttribute("ForcedRequestLanguage","de");
   myIView.save();
You would have to do a personalized JNDI lookup, so the language is only changed for the user. However, this would permanently change the page for this user.
Hope this helps.

Form Line Space Work Around (permanently set leading)

Hi All,
new to the forums – I find the format confusing, but I'll try to do my best!
I have discovered a way to permanently set the line space (leading) of a form field. If you all discover a better way, then let me know!
     Create a small, multiline text field anywhere. Name it "Reference". This field will become hidden and read only later, so don't worry too much about it.
     Enable it to have rich text formatting. This is done in the form field properties under "Appearance".
     Exit form field editing. Place a single space in that field (no other characters).
     Select that space, then hit command + e (ctrl +e on PC) to bring up the rich text formatting options.
     Select a font and size, then press "More."
     Click the paragraph tab, then select a line height. I prefer to use the "exactly" option from the drop down menu, makes it the most similar to setting type in Illustrator or Indesign.
     We're halfway done! Exit out of this field and save.
This next part gets a little trickier because it requires some event javascript.
     Create a new miltiline text field. Worry about this one more, because this is the one the user will use. For this example, name it "Text"
     Like before, enable it to be multiline and rich text in the appearance settings.
     Go to the "Actions" tab of the form field properties.
     Choose event "on blur" and action "run javascript".
     Insert the following code:
if (this.getField("Text").value == "") {this.getField("Text").richValue = getField("Reference").richValue;}
This code tells the form field that when exited, if it is left empty, it should copy the exact rich text found in the form field "reference."
Now set the field "Reference" to read only and hidden under "general" in form field properties. Exit form field editing. Select "Text" and type anything you want, then delete it. Click the field again. There is now a single space there! (invisible to user at first) that has saved all your formatting! If the user starts typing, it will be properly formatted. Make sure to save your document with the field "Text" having only the properly formatted space.
Other Notes:
There 100% is a value in the javascript to set line height. Otherwise, copying the ".richValue" of a field wouldn't allow this to work. Problem is, no one seems to know the syntax and can't find it in the API. My challenge to you guys is to find it! We've proven it exists. If we can find the syntax then we can avoid these complicated workarounds.

Sorry, when I instruct you to adjust settings in the "appearance settings," I actually meant the options settings. Sorry for the confusion!

Tabs: previous versions allowed for saving all tabs in a bookmark folder. The new tab groups do not behave this way. How can I save permanent set of tabs as a group that is available later, like the folder of bookmars was?

tabs: previous versions of firefox allowed for saving all tabs with a group name, so you could open them all again later at your convenience. The new firefox 4.0.1 has a new tab feature, but the tab groups do not seem to persist once you shut down, and are not saved as a folder in your bookmarks. What am I missing? How can I do what I want (save permanent set of tabs as a group that is available later, like the folder of bookmarks was)? Thanks

Right click one of the tabs, the "Bookmark all tabs..." option.
Does it do what you want?

I am English but live in Spain, When I got my new Macbook Pro I set the language to English, so far so good. Then I stupidly set the keyboard to British when it is obviously a Spanish keyboard. How can I reset it to Spanish. Sorry cant find question mark

LizMaddock,
you can reset the input source to Spanish by selecting the Keyboard pane of System Preferences, selecting the Input Sources tab, and pressing the “+” button in the lower-left corner to select one of the Spanish input sources. The “Spanish – ISO” input source is most similar to the physical Spanish keyboard layout.

How can i change the spelling language, (Separately from the computers language)

I have tried changing the spelling to spanish but it still has the corrector for english. As i write sometimes english and sometimes spanish i want to know how to change the entire spelling language in my computer.

Spelling language may be changed per application, not globally. First of all, deactivate automatic spelling, if you use more languages (I am not satisfied with this, perhaps because I also use custom keyboard layouts beside the default ones) in Sys Prefs/Language and Text.
Then, choose spelling language per app, this is usually placed in Edit/spelling and grammar; Pages has it somewhere else, under TExt/More (right option), then spelling language down right. For examnple, my spelling options in Safari, when writing this text, are as attached:

Is there a way to permanently set the mailbox order?

Is there a way to permanently set the sequence in which mailboxes are displayed in the left-most panel of Mail? I can drag and drop the mailboxes into the order I want, and they seem to stick around - at least until I update any of the accounts. The moment I update an accounts prefernces in Preferences, Accounts, the display order is set to the same order that appears on the preferences display.
I have a fairly large number of email accounts, and often have to tweak settings, so it's a bit of a pain to have to reset the order every time I make a change.
This is occurring on both my MBP and my iMac.

Same question.
I recently left Snow Leopard to Mountain Lion.
Previously, in the side bar of Mail, (the one you make visible using "Show" in a previous post here), I was able to drag and drop any of the Reception mailboxes to the place I wanted to select, to put them in the order I wished, and this order remained until I decide to change it.
This seems not possible any more, or... just for the current session. If I close Mail and reopen, Reception boxes are re-ordered in alphabetic way.
Any way to make my choice permanent as before ???
To make it more clear, ordering my way is possible by drag and dropping for private mailboxes, but not for reception mailboxes associated to different mail accounts, the order is lost once Mail is closed.

Hi Jaime,
Are you saying, you are getting junk characters in the email attachment? Then pls check the following. Since you want to send Japanese fonts, please pass language 'J' in both objpack-obj_langu = '3' & doc_chng-obj_langu = '3' instead of '3' please replace it with 'J'.
Another thing which you may have to check is the SCOT device type. As I understand from my basis colleague, this may also affect your attachment fonts since the emails are sent through SCOT. Go to transaction SCOT-> Settings-> Device types for format conversion. Check whether wrong device type is defined for Japanese there. Hope this helps

Gokul

Hi, can someone please tell me why the spell check in pages doesn't work. I went to preferences and enabled this auto spell checker and have set the language to british english. But still it doesn't work while it works perfectly in TextEdit.

Inspector > Text > More > Language
Only applies to selected text, like making it a particular font.
It is not a setting that sticks. If you continue to paste in text from elsewhere particularly the Internet it will have a different or None language set to it. You need to select it and make it B.E.

You can only use the German iTunes/App store if you are located in Germany. The German store is in the German language.
