[solved] libreoffice opens in German language not english

Title says it all. Basically libreoffice opens up and all the menus and things are in german so naturally I can't read any of it. Is there any way to change this?

You were lucky! I would be okay if mine had opened in German as I can sort of read it, but it opened in some weird language that may as well have been martian! Have you ever tried finding the Settings and Language options in Martian? It isn't fun! In the end I uninstalled and re-installed since I couldn't find an answer. Works fine now.
I can only assume that when I first installed it I must have not noticed that English wasn't the default option. I made sure I selected the right option when I re-installed.

  • Mail interface now in German language, not English

    Hi,
    As of this morning Mail has decided to make everything in German (all menus, dialogue boxes, windows etc.). All other programs are in English as they should be. In my System Prefs I have English set as the top language in the International pane.
    I have removed mail prefs from my Library folder and this did not change anything (other than Mail asked me to set up everything again).
    Does anyone have any insight as to how to fix this?
    Thanks,
    Mace

  • How can I change my settings to show web pages in English on Firefox do to I rescently move to Germany and everything opens in German and not English?

    I moved to Germany and now all my pages start in German instead of English, how can I fix this?
    == This happened ==
    Every time Firefox opened
    == I move to Germany

    Some sites automatically redirect you to a site in the local language.
    There is usually a link on such websites choose a language or go to an international version that allows to chose the language.
    If the Google (Firefox) or Yahoo home page is in the wrong language then see:

  • Table names and column names defined by other languages, not English.

    Hi, everyone.
    I am wondering if there are any possible problems or any inconvenience
    when I define table names and column names by Japanese, not English.
    Currently, we are using SQL server 2000 as a db and windows as a operating
    system. In the near future, we have the plan to change the database software
    and operating system to "Oracle 10g" and "Linux O/S".
    I have not experienced the oracle database, which has table names and column
    names defined by other languages, not English.
    Personally, I would like to use English as table names and column names.
    In this case, I might have to provide appropriate reasons.
    Are there any possible problems or any "inconvenience" in terms of
    system maintenance, development, or something else ?
    What could be pros and cons in this case?
    Thanks in advance.
    Have a nice day.
    Best Regards.
    Ho.

    First you need to make sure your database has character set that support Japanese.
    Choosing a Character Set
    http://download-west.oracle.com/docs/cd/B19306_01/server.102/b14225/ch2charset.htm#i1007681
    The main "inconvenience" you will have is if the client doesn't support Japanese or unicode, it will have trouble to access the table.
    And say in future after the application been developed, you want to implement the schema in some English environment, you will have hard time to do it.
    My point is English tablename and column names doesn't prevent you use it in Japanese environment and save Japanese data but not vice-versa. Hope you understand.

  • Itunes in Asian language - not English

    I upgraded to itunes8 and now there is no words, just boxes (except itune words such as podcast etc) and if I go into the help section, it is all in an Asian language.
    I have uninstalled, reinstalled old and new versions and seem to come up with the same problem every time. And am definitely choosing the English version. Have even tried to pick another language to see what would happen but still seem to get the same results.

  • Opening templates,  wrong language - need english

    I am opening templates in iAuthor and am getting the wrong language.
    I need english.
    Anyone have a tip of what I need to do in order to fix this?
    My lion OS is set with English as default.
    thanks in advance,
    Linda

    Good to know nothing broken,  but seems it could be a nice way to have template and then some tips on how to use the feature.
    Some seem very easy to use and others not so.   Like 3D and views.
    Just played with Views more and ignored the text,  so think I got it.
    Seems to have lots of features, but many are from other products so seems like once you find out iAuthor can do the feature it is easy to implement.
    I'm currently just playing around with all the features and creating test pages.
    Very cool concept.
    Thanks for your reply and helping.
    Thanks,

  • My messages app on my computer is typing in another language (not english). How do I change this?

    I finally got the app to link with my phone and it all to work. But now it's typing in Arab or something when the rest of my computer is in English.

    Back up all data.
    Launch the Font Book application and validate all fonts. You must select the fonts in order to validate them. See the built-in help and the support article linked below for instructions. If Font Book finds any issues, resolve them, then boot in safe mode* (by holding down the shift key at the startup chime) to rebuild the font caches. Boot again as usual and test.
    Mac 101: Font Book
    *Note: If FileVault is enabled under OS X 10.7 or later, or if a firmware password is set, or if the boot volume is a software RAID, you can’t boot in safe mode. In that case only, after running Font Book, launch the Terminal application in any of the following ways:
    ☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
    ☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
    ☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Terminal in the icon grid.
    Drag or copy — do not type — the following line into the Terminal window, then press return:
    sudo atsutil databases -remove
    You'll be prompted for your login password, which won't be displayed when you type it. You may get a one-time warning not to screw up. After running the command, reboot as usual.
