Simplified Chinese input problem

I recently update mac air, but the simplified Chinese input is disabled. Can someone help please?
Thank you!

Go to system preferences/keyboard/input sources and try deleting your Chinese input sources.  Then restart and try adding them back in.
A further approach is to reinstall you OS.
OS X Mavericks: Reinstall OS X

  • Problems trying to use simplified Chinese input

    I went to System Preferences > International > Input > Checked the box labeled "simplified chinese" and all the secondary boxes and yet when I try to switch to Chinese using the input menu the options for Chinese are faded and unclickable. Is there anything I should install?

    Does this happen in TextEdit?  If not, what apps?

  • Could not find Simplified Chinese input method when using FormsCentral

    Hi
    When I creating files using FormsCentral, I could not find the input method of Simplified Chinese, therefore, the document I created look strange. The font is not what I wanted but I really could not find Simplified Chinese to edit the document.  Could anyone please show me how should I do it or where I can download the font pack?

    We currently do not support Chinese forms.

  • Simplified Chinese input

    I selected simplified Chinese as a possible input in system preferences, but when I select it to type something, I just get something like this >> ｓａｄｆｋｌ.  I don't get a list of possible characters. I tried it with traditional Chinese but that works fine.  Does anyone know a solution to this?

    Yes, I'm using pin yin.

  • Simplified Chinese format problem in File-File Scenario.

    Hi,
    I have configured File(FTP) - > File(FTP) Scenario.
    I am expecting a Chinese File from Source system which is AS400. I am using the file encoding format UTF-8 while the chinese characters are in GB2312 format. My sender file adapter picks up the file correctly, but SXMB_MONI gives Mapping related Parser error. Kindly Suggest.
    Do i need to change some character set or code page? if yes, where should it be done?
    Thanks Charu.

    Hi,
    Under File Encoding, specify a code page.
    The default setting is to use the system code page that is specific to the configuration of the installed operating system. The file content is converted to the UTF-8 code page before it is sent.
    Permitted values for the code page are the existing charsets of the Java runtime. According to the SUN specification for the Java runtime, at least the following standard character sets must be supported:
    US-ASCII
    Seven-bit ASCII, also known as ISO646-US, or Basic Latin block of the Unicode character set
    ISO-8859-1
    ISO character set for Western European languages (Latin Alphabet No. 1), also known as ISO-LATIN-1
    UTF-8
    8-Bit Unicode Character Format
    UTF-16BE
    16-bit Unicode character format, big-endian byte order
    UTF-16LE
    16-bit Unicode character format, little-endian byte order
    UTF-16
    16-bit Unicode character format, byte order
    Check which other character sets are supported in the documentation for your Java runtime implementation.
    XML text documents generally contain their own code page description and should be treated as binary data type.
    If it is not there the you need write the Adapter module for sender side .
    Or you can use the XSLT mapping using CDATA.

  • Fix a Bug in OS X.5.2 for input simplified chinese using AZERTY keyboard ?

    Bonjour,
    I use Leopard on my new MacBook, which has a french AZERTY keyboard. My main language is french, but sometimes i have to write some simplified chinese caracters.
    When i choose the simplified chinese input method ITABC, my keyboard acts like a QWERTY keyboard ! So it is difficult to input text because i have to guess where are the letters.
    This bug existed in the first versions of Mac OS X, and then was fixed in the next versions (Panther and Tiger worked fine). Using Tiger on my old PowerBook 12", when i chose the chinese ITABC input method, the keyboard continued to act "normally", i mean like an AZERTY keyboard.
    And the bug appeared again with Leopard...
    Can you tell me how to fix this problem ?
    Or, more likely, can a nice Apple developper fix this problem on the next OS update ? (OS X.5.3)
    That would be very nice, thanks
    Dudusiong

    Thanks for the answer. But i'd prefer not to spend my money to buy a solution to overpass this bug, i just want to fix it or get it fixed by Apple.
    Does anyone have an idea about how i could tell my computer not to switch from AZERTY to QWERTY when i select the Simplified Chinese Input Method ?
    I'm sure it can be done by modifying a file in the system. I think things are set up in the file named SCIM (as Simplified Chinese Imput Method), located in the directory : .../System/Library/Imput Methods/
    But i don't know what to do to fix the problem, and how to do it...

  • No Traditional Chinese Input!!!!

    It's an outrage only Simplified Chinese input method is supported. The majority of the US Chinese population, not to mention a very large world population use Traditional Chinese.
    Traditional Chinese input methods are already on iPhones and iPod Touch, why doesn't Apple port it to iPad?
    Make your opinion known and post followup so Apple will pay attention!

    Being able to "read and write both" does not mean the ability to understand it. I'm sure you can "read and write" English, but I'm sure that not everyone in the US knows what "going to the loo" means; hence the cultural difference between the 2 speakers.
    I can read and write both Traditional and Simplified Chinese, and I've played with the Simplified Chinese on my iPad, being a Traditional Chinese writer, "bee-hive digital" does not mean "Cellular Data" to me in any way shape or form.
    Logically, the interface to input would be the same for the iphone and the ipad, where as the iphone does suppose Traditional Chinese. I just don't understand it was left out.

  • Bug in Chinese input (Pinyin Simplified)

    Hello, I think I've found a bug in the OS' language input for Chinese input. It just doesn't seem to like writing the combination of letters 'zhe'. This is really annoying, as these letters spell the Mandarin for 'This', amongst other things, so I want to use it quite a lot. Every time I try to write 'zhe' using 'Pinyin- Simplified' it works fine for the first two letters, then when I type 'e' it beachballs and then just writes the English letter 'e' instead of giving me a choice of characters spelt 'zhe'. The 'zh' just disappears. Any more writing is just rendered in the English alphabet, despite the symbol for Pinyin- Simplified being displayed on the menu bar, unless I switch out and in of input languages. Resetting in this way doesn't cure the problem. This only seems to happen for 'zhe' as far as I can discover - 'zhou', 'zhi' 'zhang' etc. render in Chinese just fine.
    Perhaps someone could test this on their machine, and let me know whether it's a problem with my computer or the OS, and give me suggestions on how to fix it, if possible? I'd be grateful for any help.

    I can't duplicate your problem with 这 or 你。But I am only on 10.6.3.

  • Input Simplified Chinese Characters into Microsoft Powerpoint

    Please help!
    What's the easiest way to put Simplified Chinese Characters into Microsoft Powerpoint???
    I have a mandarin project due like in a week, and I've been trying to find out how to do this on a mac. I've tried the international thing on preferences, but it doesn't work very well, and doesn't even work on powerpoint. Any help would be awesome!!!!
    Cheers!

    the characters turn out as wierd symbols
    You should really have no problem with Office 2004. You might make sure you have the MS Chinese Fonts selected for your text field (SimSun.ttf and PMingLiU.ttf. They appear in the Font menu as 宋体 and 新細明體.)
    Send me a screenshot if you like (tom at bluesky dot org).

  • Print problems double byte characters (ZH - simplified Chinese)

    We are currently preparing a 4.7 (WebAS 6.20 on SLES) rollout in China and struggle with a severe printer problem. Our SAPScript forms contain a mixture of western and simplified Chinese characters. The printouts come just with either hashes, blanks or undefinable characters instead of Chinese. We generally use HP Laserjet printers there (1022n, 2300, 2420, 2600n, 4100, 6L). SAP patch level is 51 for SAP_BASIS (I know that's "a bit" behind). I've already checked a number of SAP notes but couldn't find anything really usable. Basically I think the reason is the printer themselves (installed fonts) and the problem might be solved by adding some DIMM modules containing the specific asian fonts (anyhow they seem to be hard to get as the printer models are rather old). Did anyone come across similar problems? I'd really appreciate any kind of info or help.
    Cheers,
    Andy

    Hi Markus,
    thanks for the info. We've actually been able to get some DIMMs (hard to get, seems like they are not produced anymore, new printer models can be flashed either by CD or Flash Card) and, after we made some changes in the SAPScript forms (wrong character sets) it worked properly.
    Frontend printing: definitely to be avoided, would only have been an option for a couple of days to get some additional time. One option I've also tried is a mixture of network and frontend printing: I've set up a windows server and used saplpd as a print server. You can point the SAP devices in SPAD to that server by setting up the device's destination host and host printer accordingly. Actually this should be avoided, too, as saplpd as a print server is considered to be very instable. sapsprint actually isn't better.
    Anyhow - as we've managed to get the DIMMs it's working now.
    Cheers,
    Andy

    Hi Eric Ferguson,
    Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
    For troubleshooting on this, take a look at this article:
    iTunes: Specific update-and-restore error messages and advanced troubleshooting
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ts3694
    Error 13, 14, 35 and 50 (or -50)
    These errors are typically resolved by performing one or more of the steps listed below:
    Perform USB isolation troubleshooting, including trying a different USB port directly on the computer. See the advanced steps below for USB troubleshooting.
    Put a USB 2.0 hub between the device and the computer.
    Try a different USB 30-pin dock-connector cable.
    Eliminate third-party security software conflicts.
    There may be third-party software installed that modifies your default packet size in Windows by inserting one or more TcpWindowSize entries into your registry. Your default packet size being set incorrectly can cause this error. Contact the manufacturer of the software that installed the packet-size modification for assistance. Or, follow this article by Microsoft: How to reset Internet Protocol (TCP/IP) to reset the packet size back to the default for Windows.
    Connect your computer directly to your Internet source, bypassing any routers, hubs, or switches. You may need to restart your computer and modem to get online.
    Try to restore from another known-good computer and network.
    Best of luck,
    Mario

  • Problem printing simplified Chinese on PM4i printer using multi-byte data

    I am new to printing data in Simplified Chinese and have tried for a period of time to get it to work but it is not working. I would appreciate any help.
    This is what I have:
    1. Chinese data stored as multi-byte data in oracle 10g db. It is in one of the attribute fields on the mtl_system_items table. The data field it is stored in is defined as varchar2(240). I have to extract that data and print it out as simplified Chinese characters on 3x4 label stock on PM4i printer which is setup to use IPL as the default language.
    2. Purchased the simplified Chinese font kit ( compact flash card ) and plugged it into the compact flash port on back of the printer. The simplified Chinese font is assigned.
    3. Created simple program to build the label file to send to the printer to print the Chinese glyphs. I expected 3 to print but it only prints 1 Chinese glyph and that is not the correct.

    i think the issue here may be with formating the mulit-byte data into format it can be printed using the c60 font. Any
    coding examples would be greatly appreciated

  • BUG: Chinese Input doesn't work properly in Illustrator CC (Mac)

    As what the title says, inputting Chinese characters in Illustrator CC on Mac is not possible.
    Is there any way to fix this besides waiting for Adobe to release a patch?

    Hello,
    Can you please explain what kind of issues you are experiencing?
    Which input system are you using?
    Is it a problem with mixed text or is the text all in English?
    I have tried inputting Chinese using the Mac Simplified Pinyin input system in Illustrator and it seems to work.
    Thanks,

  • Why my chinese input app fails?

    When I switch from English Input to Chinese Input, I can't input anything to several apps including Mails, QQ, Evernote.
    But I can input Chinese in Chrome and other apps.
    Not only character keys are disabled, number keys and delete key are also disabled.

    Thanks for your attention.
    It works well in TextEdit.
    I've tried Simplified Pinyin (the original Chinese IM included in OS) and Sogou Pinyin IM, but neither work.
    Til now, only Mails, QQ and Evernote are affected. However, if I set English IM before I open QQ app and switch to Chinese IM after QQ's setup, Chinese IM becomes OK. But this doesn't appear in Mails and Evernote.
    I tried to create a new account but the same problem appears.
