Regional Settings list gone!

Hello everybody. I got the new iPhone 3G and followed the classic steps to get it to work. (I already have a 1st-gen iPhone, so everything went smoothly)
Then it was time for me to set it up. I went to Settings > General > International > Region Format. Oh the horror! Instead of the list ("Australia, Belgium, Botswana, ets") all I got was "en_us", "bt_en", fr_fr" and things like that!
I went back and tried the Keyboard Settings instead. Guess what! No "English ON/OFF", no "Danish ON/OFF", etc. I got the same text strings as above..
The iPhone was new, unused, and got updated when I connected it to iTunes.
I thought it might be a problem with the update, so I restored it again. I get the same thing every time. The only way to return it to normal is to turn it off and on two times after a restore. Then magically it gets the correct menus. Anyone else having this issue?
What should I do? This never happened to my 1st-gen before.

What language are you set for? Settings -> General -> International -> Language ? Unfortunately, I cannot try it myself. If I put my phone into Greek, I will never get it back . But I would imagine that changing the language would affect all of the other choices.

Set with filter Expirationtime comparison current-datetime does not list members: regional settings?

Hi all;
I've created a criteria-based set that has to filter for users that have an
"expiration Time" "prior to" "today".
xpath filter: /Person[ExpirationTime < fn:current-dateTime()]
I've got one user where I've set a date expired to a week ago.
When I click view members it does not return any results. When I change the logic to
"expiration Time" "after" "today". to see how this logic works, it doesn't return any results either.
I'm working in Belgium, regional settings are d/MM/yyyy H:mm (in 24h format).
My browser language is also set to nl-BE, where FIM actually uses this in the PORTAL field too:
Today in Belgium is 16/09/2014 16:45. But My set returns 0 members.
I've read some articles that FIM needs the format in yyyy/MM/dd format (for import)
Is it correct that FIM Portal doesn't handle this XPATH current-dateTime() function correctly for foreign regional settings?
I've tried to set it current-dateTime("d/MM/yyyy") or other variants, but that gives an error when I'm trying to save.
Kind regards,
David

Hi,
I've checked, the "SQL Server Agent (MSSQLSERVER)" is running, and set to automatic.
I've changed the Local default to "dutch (Belgium)" in the Site settings (it was English (US)):
I've launched iisreset to restart the website.
I've looked at the set, no members. I've validated if the users its date format was OK (and Belgian/European style) => it was.
I've played in the set with the different options (I'm translating as these are in Dutch):
- Prior to 1 day
- Prior to 1 day from today
- Prior to "Tuesday 16 September 2014 0:00:00" (from a calendar control)
- Prior to today
None of these returned any user records :(

Regional Settings on Lumia 710

Dear friends, I am based out of India,
Problem - I bought a Lumia 710 in London, I want to change the regional setting to India but there is no option to select India, it shows many countries but not my country. I wanted to buy something through the Phone and I can enter my credit card details but I cannot fill out city, state country since my regional setting is US and cannot change to India....You can replicate it by going into regional
Settings>region+language> then try changing the region format....you cannot see India listed....
I walked into a mobile showroom which was seeling this and checked these settings and can see India listed...
Can you please help with me
Thanks

Regional settings impact JavaScript Number conversion to String in applet

Environment:
XP, IE6 and IE7, JDK 1.6.0_13,1.6.0_10,1.6.0_7, Apache
Hi,
We recently converted our application from the MS JVM to Sun JVM 1.6 and have since had numerous problems with a user's regional setting impacting the application's behaviour.
The application is using an applet, passing JavaScript Number values to an Applet where the input argument in the Java function is declared as a String.
We have users with various regional settings, most don't impact the application, but we have found problems when the regional settings are set to "French (France)" or "German (Germany)".
With "French (France)" JavaScript Number values >=10000000 get truncated to a Java String value of just the first character.e.g. 10000000 is converted to "1", 200000000 is converted to "2".
With "German (Germany)" a trailing "0" is added to the converted String, and for values >=10000000 we get the String value with an additional 6 "0"s and then 2 additional "0"s as the input Number value is increments by each power of 10.
A simple example follows.
Any help understanding why this is happening and any coding solution would be appreciated.
The default number format for the various regional settings seems to be impacting the implicit conversion to String in LiveConnect.
We can re-code to convert the Number value to a String in the JavaScript before calling the applet, but this involves significant re-coding of the application.
We also have a workaround to verify that navigator.userLanguage returns one of the list of supported languages and exit the application if the language is unsupported.
Thanks
Rob

document.write("<BR>copy/paste the above 2 lines of code, adding an additional '1'<BR>");
</script>
</body>

I have found a workaround by setting the locale in the applet to a locale that does perform implicit Number to String conversion correctly.
e.g.
public void init() {
try {
Locale.setDefault(Locale.US);
} catch (Exception e) {
System.err.println("Failed to set Locale, Caught Exception: " + e.getMessage());
and adding this line to the java.policy to prevent "access denied (java.util.PropertyPermission user.language write)" errors.
permission java.util.PropertyPermission "user.language", "read, write";

Changing regional settings gives error

Hello,
When trying to set the regional settings I get the following error:
The column "column name
Parent Instance" in the list or library "list name" has been marked for indexing. Please turn off all indexed columns before changing the collation of this site. You may re-index those columns after the collation of the site
has been changed
Is there any fix for this? I don't think it's a good idea to remove indexed system columns such as parent, child instance...How would I re-index those system columns? We need the currency, date and time to display according to the chosen
locale.
Thanks,
Martin

[SOLVED] Regional settings of Gnome, how to have more regions?

Hi, I'm giving Gnome a try and after installing it and changing my keyboard layout I went to change my regional settings. In the "Region and Language" part of the system settings, under "Format" there's only one region to select, United States. Clicking the + button brings a list of regions but there's only the US in there, what do I have to install to add more?

Issue in Regional Settings in creating Multilingual sites

Hi,
I am using SharePoint 2013 Standard edition(June CU update) and facing an issue with multi-lingual sites.
I have custom web templates with which sites are created. The current template which I am using in inheriting from Team site template.
However, when I create a site with a different locale I am encountering java-script errors which is manifesting as different errors. A few errors I can list are
Not able to delete a web-part on the home page
The task list is not editable
The js error is specifically coming in sp.ui.timeline.js (_spRegionalSettings undefined). I have attached the snapshot below
On changing the locale in regional settings everything works fine.
To confirm this issue is not with my custom web template I have tried the same thing on OOB Team site template. I created a Swedish language site and also changed my browser language to Swedish. Still the same error persists.
I have attached my regional settings for reference.
Is this a bug in SharePoint or does anybody have a workaround for this?

The issue is different. In Some of the European languages, dot(.) is represented as comma(,). If you see the HTML source, you will see the JS breaks while initializing '_spRegionalSettings' variable.
var _spRegionalSettings={adjustHijriDays:0,calendarType:1,firstDayOfWeek:0,firstWeekOfYear:0,localeId:1031,currentDateInLocalCalendar: new Date(2014, 0, 3),showWeeks:0,timeZone:'05:29:59.9999851',timeZoneInHours:5,5,workDayEnd:1020,
The regional setting values are like- key:value,key:value, ...
But... since all European countries has non-decimal time zone, we are safe. Still I am not sure if this issue can occur for some other country where decimal time zone meets dot-comma situation.

Microsoft Windows : Changing the region settings using browser.

Hi,
We have a jsp page which has a drop down list and a textbox. It has 3 languages namely, English, French, Spanish, Hindi and Tamil.
If a user select French, the region should automatically changed and if the user type some thing in the text box next to drop down, he should see the characters in French, same way for all the languages.
We are trying to achieve this on the client side. We are trying to implement this using JSP Page,
Is there any way to achieve this or Do we have to include any VB Script.
Please reply back if you have any suggestion.
Thanks,

I had the same issue - all VIs in English, but DAQmx and its subVIs were in German.
I completely uninstalled/reinstalled LabVIEW and the issue persisted. I'm running LabVIEW 2014 (14.0, 32-bit) on Windows 8 64-bit, and I have another system running the LabVIEW 2014 on Windows 7 64-bit affected by the same issue. All possible language and region settings on both computers are English (United States).
I was able to fix the issue by downloading the newest standalone DAQmx software (14.5 at time of writing this)
http://www.ni.com/download/ni-daqmx-14.5/5212/en/
and just let it do a typical installation, over my current software, without uninstalling anything specific. Everything seems to be fixed now - hope this helps someone else.

How to modify regional settings and keep Acrobat 9.4.1 working?

When I modify the regional settings on my W7 PC (i.e. switching the decimal symbol and digit grouping symbol from dot to comma and vice-versa), I cannot print to Adobe PDF Printer nor can I convert Office documents to PDF files anymore. It seem like the joboptions files were getting corrupted (I can see read errors).
Can anyone advise on how to modify the regional settings and keep Acrobat 9.4.1 Pro working properly? Do I have to adopt the joboptions files (and if yes, how?)?
Thank you for your advice!

The defaults for three are blank entries. That is there are no defaults, The only way to get those back to being blank would be to delete your preferences file ( Home->Library->Preferences->com.apple.Aperture,plist ) and possibly the files in *Home->Library->Program Support->Aperture* (but I don't think you would need to do these, not sure.)
However before you do this you should know there is no drawback to having these entries filled in. Aperture would only attempt to use them if you actually selected them while using Aperture. It won't be looking for them on startup. And if the programs pointed to by these entries no longer exist on your system Aperture won't even fill in the names in the menu items where these are pointed to ( *Photos->Edit with* for example)

Changing regional settings in CS6/Acrobat X Pro

Hello,
I have just installed CS6 and would like to change the regional settings from USA to European A4.
The following test has been done:
Created customised A4 job options for each of: Standard Quality, High Quality, Press Quality
Then edited preference for Conversion from Microsoft Word to PDF using new job option 'Standard Quality A4'
PDF created is still in Letter sizing after rebooting machine.
Note: the original Microsoft Word file has a page setup of A4.
What is the best way to make wholesale changes across Adobe CS6 so that millimetres/A4 settings are the default ?
Thank you.

Hi Cre8tiveNess,
You need to set the same preferences in Control Panel > Adobe PDF Printer > Printing preferences.

No data to refresh in BPC clients with Russian regional settings

Hello, colleagues
I hope to get some advices and information about saving data in BPC client computers with non-English regional settings (e.g., decimal point is set ","). Our BPC server has English regional settings.
BPC 7.0, SQL Server 2008. I created new Input Schedule by using standard EVDRE function. And data was not sent to SQL Server after clicking Send and Refresh, I got the message "No data to refresh". I examined hidden sheet EVDRE_DATACACHE and found cells in row A with cache data in XML format. After some experiments I found out that if all data values will be replaced with symbol "S" then all data in the sheet with EVDRE could be saved correctly. I don't know any other methods to make data with decimal point "," to be saved. Also I tried to change members of Measure (Periodic - YTD) but i got the same result.
Thanks for your help.

Actually you have the problem into server.
I think you have the regional settings wrong into server.
We have actually many customers using French, German, Dutch language having "," for decimal separator and it is working fine.
It is not working when actually the settings into the server are not English US.
Please check the follow keys from application server:
HKEY_USERS - .Default - Control Panel - International
HKEY_USERS - S-1-18.. - Control Panel - International
HKEY_USERS - S-1-19 ..- Control Panel - International
HKEY_USERS - S-1-20 ..- Control Panel - International
HKEY_USERS - S-1-21..- Control Panel - International
HKEY_USERS - S-1-21........ ..- Control Panel - International
These keys should be sett all for english US. If it is at least one not correct that can cause problems with sending data.
Regards
Sorin Radulescu

Doesn't matter. That store is likely selling illegit iphones, brought oin from somewhere else.
The fact remains the UAE government does not allow Facetime on iphones legitimately sold there.
