Terminal doesn't show Japanese character

Hi everyone,
I've been having a really strange problem lately..Maybe it was there all the time and never noticed it.
I use a lot my terminal and I have some file named with japanese character, everything is fine in the Finder but in my terminal, they show as spaces.
Which means, they just cannot be displayed BUT they are read... If I copy/paste theses blanks in TextEdit, I see my japanese character perfectly well.
I use the Monaco font so I don't think it's a font issue and my locale are en_US.UTF8 !
For the record : iTerm doesn't have this issue.
Somebody have any issue ?

"Monaco" font should work, but try using "Osaka-regular-Mono".
There was a similar report a few weeks ago:
[10.6 Terminal.app doesn't show complex characters|http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=10107040&#1010704 0]
So it's not only you having the problem, but my Terminal.app (iMac, 10.6.1) displays Japanese characters without problem, and I have no idea what is wrong with your Terminal. If "Monaco" font is used then "Hiragino Kaku Gothic" (HiraKakuProN-W3) is substituted for Japanese characters.
I did clean install of 10.6. Did you upgrade from 10.5.x? I think you may send a bug report/feedback to Apple.

Terminal doesn't show changes immediately

Hi,
since some days I have an annoying problem: When I type something, for example 10 x [Return], my xterm doesn't "react" immediately. Nothing happens for at least several seconds. When I switch the window and switch back the input / command is showed / executed as expected..
Any ideas?
xterm
Version : 266-1
dwm
Version : 5.8.2
bash
Version : 4.1.009-1

Safari doesn't show Chinese characters in a specific site?

Hi all,
I've just found a weird thing that Safari doesn't show Chinese character in this site.
http://blog.bcxstudio.net/
It works in Firefox (Mac and win), Chrome (mac and win), IE 6-9, Safari for Mac, but not Safari on Windows.
However, when I browse other websites like Yahoo hong kong and Apple HK. There is no problem.
http://hk.news.yahoo.com
http://www.apple.com/hk
My best guess is that the site may uses some fonts (CSS3 @font-face?) that safari did not support.
Anyone knows what happened?
I am on Windows 7, Safari for Windows 5.0.2 (7533.18.5)
Thank you!

That's a bit odd ... I'm getting the opposite effect at the moment on my XP SP3. I'm not seeing the text in IE 8 (I don't think I've got the International character sets installed for my XP Pro), but they show fine in my Safari 5.0.2.
Are you still seeing the effect at your end at the moment, b?

Music plays in iTunes, but Finder doesn't show them

Okay this is wierd and I don't know if it belongs to iTunes or to HFS+.
When I start iTunes, I can see my whole library of about 50'000 songs. In the finder, at the same time, I see maybe 30 or 40 artists, way less than I have songs. Now, say, for example, in iTunes, I see "a-ha" as artist. In the finder windows that shows the directory where my music is, I don't see a-ha. Now, if I do a Get Info on a song of a-ha, suddenly, a-ha appears in the Finder. With exactly this album and exactly this song. If I Get Info of another song, that one appears too. Funny enough, with the correct creation dates and everything, as if that song always there and from there after, it is there. But not before. I do a daily backup to another disk (just copying, no mirroring), funny enough, that other disk behaves exactly the same: it doesn't show my music anymore.
If I open a terminal console, its the same: I don't see anything anymore there, but the according to Disk Utility, the amount of items on that disk is about correct. Does anyone have a clue what's happening here? I already verified both disks, no errors. They are attached using USB and each is part of a single 3TB concantenated RAID.

Sounds to me like you might have disk directory problems. Try using disk utility to repair the disk (use repair instead of verify - just in case). If not, you might want to buy and try diskwarrior.
Have you tried rebooting? If not, try that first.
Also, try "right clicking" (or control-clicking) on a song, and select show in finder from the drop down menu - is the file where you think it should be?

My external drive mounts but doesn't show in Finder anymore?

I was accessing my iMac external backup drive over the network from my laptop and it suddenly greyed out. Going to my iMac I discoverd that the drive was mounted according to Disk Utility and my backup utility could find it but it doesn't show on my desktop or the sidebar of the Finder window. I can access it thru the Go to Folder menu item. I can then drag items to it but can't save items to it directly since it doesn't show up in Finder. I have checked Finder preferences, restarted the iMac, dismounted (in Disk Utility) and remounted it. I've also eliminated it in Sharing system preferences. No luck on all counts. I connected it to the laptop and it behaves the same way. Doing a Google search turned up the possiblity that it has become "invisible" but I'm confused as to how to change this attribute. I'm hoping there is a simple Terminal command I can use.
Looking for some help here!

Yes I did Eric. Then just found the answer. Volume became hidden and I used a Terminal command.
Thank you for reading my question and suggesting a solution!

Mail 5.2 doesn't show html/attachments in Lion 10.7.3

I recently upgraded to Lion from Snow Leopard.
The problem is that Mail version 5.2 (1257) doesn't show html content or attachments. Even Apple's own templates from the application itself doesn't show correctly.
I've made sure that the "show remote html content in the Preferences is checked.
I've also tried to rebuild the mailboxes without any changes. Html-content and pictures stil doesn't show.
How can I fix this?
Is there a command for the Terminal that can fix this?
MBP 15" 2.2 GHz (10.7.2) 4GB RAM

Step 1
Mail ▹ Preferences ▹ Viewing ▹ Display remote images in HTML messages: check
Step 2
If you still have the issue, back up all data before proceeding further. Whatever happens, you must be able to restore your system to the state it's in now.
Quit Mail if it’s running.
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.
☞ If you’re running Mac OS X 10.7 or later, open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Terminal in the page that opens.
Drag or copy – do not type – the following line into the Terminal window, then press return:
defaults delete com.apple.mail PreferPlainText
Quit Terminal. Launch Mail and test.

Console.app doesn't show up (window)

Hi,
a week or so after I've upgraded to 10.9.2 my console.app stopped opening any log file and it doesn't show even a (blank) window.
I checked the activity monitor and it seems to be working.
I've typed "tail -f /var/log/system.log" in a terminal window and opened the Console and it showed this lines:

Any idea how to solve this issue?

Some japanese character encoded to "?". Please help me..

My system is below listed.
J2SE 1.4.1
MySql Ver 11.18 Distrib 3.23.52,
Resin 2.1.4
Java application load html document encoded 'SHIFT_JIS' using HtmlURLConnection.
And read the document in 'SHIFT_JIS'.
Almost it appears properly but some of characters printed in '?'.
hm....
I will show my source code.
private String readDocument(URL url) {
String METHOD_NM = ".readDocument()";
try {
HttpURLConnection URLCon = (HttpURLConnection)url.openConnection();
BufferedReader in = new BufferedReader( new InputStreamReader(url.openStream(), "SJIS"));
String inputLine;
On my web server, input the character(printed '?') on textbox in IE6(japanese language pack). and submit. then the character translated the code(ex> #4575; )
The code inserted DB. select from DB the tuple.
and display the IE6. it's ok.
but loaded from japanese html. It's inserted to DB '?'.
and displayed '?' on IE6.
I want to translate the character to code(ex> #5455;).
OK?
Please reply...
p.s I'm sorry my poor english..

Thank you for reply.
but I've already tried that.
I have tried all japanese encoding of "Supported Encodings" from java.
http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.3/docs/guide/intl/encoding.doc.html
I want to convert that.
ex)
?fe? => & # 4532; fe & # 3456; => original charcater is removed blank
This is convert '?' to code number.
In this case '?' is Japanese character.
Please let me know the way..

Japanese character in WLS7.0

Hello,everyone:
I got such a problem,It's about japanese character in WLS7.0.
Let me describe my envirment first,
OS:windows 2000 pro (japanese)
WLS:Weblogic Sever 7.0 (english)
When i write in a japanese character in a form contained by a jsp
webpage,then submit
this form to WLS7.0,the Weblogic server should display the character
originally,but the
return value is confusion.
alternatively,when i submit this form to weblogic server 6.1,the
original and return value
is the same.
Does the Weblogic Server 7.0 english version not support Japanese
character inputting?
thank you for readding!

I am using Oracle OC4J Standalong Server v10.1.3.
Its kind of weird because after I have successfully logged in, the japanese characters are correctly displayed. It is only at the login page that the header text displays improperly. Below shows the details:
header-layout.jsp (this is the jsp that has a problem in the display)
before login:
login.jsp ---> this imports the header-layout.jsp. other japanese texts within the login.jsp file are correctly displayed but the japanese text in the header-layout.jsp is not properly displayed.
after login:
list.jsp --> this uses the same header-layout.jsp but specifies it using tiles-defs.xml
