Thunderbird: Emails with non-english letters warped
When receiving emails all non-english letters are warped.
I can write, say æ, ø, å, but getting it back it looks like this: æ, ø, Ã¥
The subject line is still fine, it's the message text that gets warped.
I tried installing language packs, and then dictionary, (and of course restarting), but it does not work.
Character sets is the answer.
View menu > character encoding. It is probably UTF-8 and should be western or vise versa

Youtube issue - search with non-english letters
The issue appeared after the recent software update, worked correctly in the previous one.
When searching youtube with non-english letters (through iphone remote app), it assumes every letter to be an "enter" and reports a problem connecting to youtube.
Even when I try using the "recent searches", it will report the same problem for non-english items.you need to report it to apple via http://www.apple.com/feedback/appletv.html

Problem with Non-English Fields Output to PDF by JASPER in JDev10.1.3
I am using jsprx files(designed in i-report) to generate pdf reports out of an oracle database.
The non-English fields are shown correctly when I output the report into an HTML or when I view it with JasperView.
If I try making PDF files (JasperExportManager.exportReportToPdfFile) the static fields containing e.g.Arabic/Chineese characters won't be displayed and dynamic fields from the database with non-English contents will be shown as ??? or null.
I received some suggestions about using PARAMETERS to feed the report instead of FIELDS, which I think can not be helpful in this case and in general.
I think this should be a common problem. These are the components I am using:
itext-1.4.7. jar
commons-digester- 1.7.zip
jasperreports- 1.2.8.jar
Any comment or help is appreciated.
Thanks

Upload text files with non-english characters
I use an Apex page to upload text files. Then i retrieve the contents of files from wwv_flow_files.blob_content and convert them to varchar2 with utl_raw.cast_to_varchar2, but characters like ò, à, ù become garbage.
What could be the problem? Are characters lost when files are stored in wwv_flow_files or when i do the conversion?
Some other info:
* I see wwv_flow_files.DAD_CHARSET is set to "ascii", wwv_flow_files.FILE_CHARSET is null.
* Trying utl_raw.cast_to_varchar2( utl_raw.cast_to_raw('àòèù') ) returns 'àòèù' correctly;
* NLS_CHARACTERSET parameter is AL32UTF8 (not just english ASCII)Hi

[SOLVED!] On USB drives, problems with non-English chars and HAL
Hello,
I am having a problem with non-English caracters (áãàçéẽê...) on files stored on my USB drive.
On Windows they're created with the correct name. But on Linux the files have the non-English characteres replaced by '?' and are not accessible.
If I manuallly mount the drives using 'mount -o iocharset=utf8 /dev/sdb1 /media/usbdisk' the characters are OK, so I think I just need to get HAL to pass the correct parameters to mount. However I don't know how to do that, and haven't found any good solution.
I tried to build a custom kernel setting the default charset as UTF-8 and it didn't work.
Any ideas? I'm using x86-64, HAL 0.5.13-3 and my locale is pt-BR.UTF-8.
Thanks!
EDIT: Actually, this is not a HAL problem, but a problem with 'exo'. For the solution, I edited /etc/xdg/xfce4/mount.rc and added iocharset=utf8 to the [vfat] category.
Last edited by Renan Birck (2009-11-28 20:54:23)I don't use Thunar presently, but I looked in the Thunar Volume Manager doc and I didn't find anything to change the mount options of removable drives. I am not quite sure if it's possible or not. Maybe someone using it can tell for sure.
But if it is not possible to change the mount options, a possible solution is to disable the Thunar Volume Manager plugin and to use something else more configurable to manage the automount function.
Personally I use the halevt package from AUR which uses configuration files in the xml format.
It's not so easy to use but is highly configurable.
But there exists other tools also.
I can help you with halevt if you choose that way... -

Error when import file with non-english character
Hi,<br /><br />I have images file with non-english character (unicode), for example ABC<X>.png where <X> is non-english character such as japanese, chinese, etc.<br /><br />Whenever I want to import the file to After Effects (right click -> import -> file), I always encounter error:<br /><br />Finding file/dir info for the file "C:\...\ABC?.png" -- file not found (-43) (3::30)<br />Can't import file "ABC?.png": unsupported filetype or extension. (0::1)<br /><br />My PC is Windows XP Professional 2002 SP2 English.<br /><br />How to solve this problem?<br /><br />Thanks
Adjust your system language settings. Proper file name conventions require a consistent Unicode environment, so install the respective foreign language support files or switch the language system-wide. Mixing different zones/ code ranges is always a bad idea. If your system is not in Japanese, AE will always misinterpret the characters and refuse to import. If that's not feasible, simply rename the files.

Screen locked with non-English keyboard layout selected
Hello,
I use two keyboard character sets for keyboard. The switch between them is Command-Space.
I also have password requirement for waking up or going from screen saver.
Now if screensaver starts with non-English layout selected, I'm not able to login:
password is not accepted because keyboard layout is not English and switching
to English layout does not work in unlocking window.
Is there any way to change layout while in the unlock window?
ThanksYes you are right, this is not a bug, it's just bad user interface. Just imagine the following scenario...
Writing a paper, switching to Greek to enter a couple of characters and leaving the mac idle for 5 mins.
The lock screen comes up asking for a password, unfortunately the user didn't change the language
before the mac was left idle and there is no option to change the language in the lock screen.
User has to hard reset to access the mac and let's hope that the user was saving his paper frequenlty.
So from a coding point of view this is not a bug, but from a user interface design it is a huge flaw -

Naming files with non English characters.
I'm using filemaker to creat PDF's through Acrobat 10.1.12. I need to use Polish, Hungarian, Czech and Slovakian characters in the file name but the characters are not recognised and so the file name will not create. This is for Windows, the problem does not occur on a mac.

Customer Mss Upload with non ENGLISH language
Hi,
I have a BDC program which uploads customer Address data into the system.
Now I have some customer data with non english characters like chinese and Japanese. If I try to upload this data with english language LOGON then data doesnt updates correctly but if I use the corresponding language logon and upload the same data then it works fine.
Is there any ways I can upload these non english customer data with english system logon using BDCs or do I need to use any other approach?Hi Benson,
Can you please elaborate on the issue. What characters are missing?

[AS] Problem with non English characters in file path
I wrote a script that exports a pdf file from ID, rasterizes it in PS, applies an action, saves it as another pdf file, and finally creates a Mail message, and attaches the file to it (the last part is written in AppleScript).
The problem is that it doesn't work when the path to this file contains non English characters.
This works:
make new attachment with properties {file name:"/Volumes/Macintosh HD/BackUp Tetard/Test.pdf"}
but this doesn't:
make new attachment with properties {file name:"/Volumes/Macintosh HD/BackUp Têtard /Test.pdf"}
I remember vaguely that I read somewhere that AppleScript can work with Unicode — in other words with such characters — starting from some version, don't remember which exactly, but it seems to me — Leopard.
I am on Mac OS X 10.4.11 right now. Will updating solve this problem? Does anybody know any solution to this problem: a scripting addition, some hidden setting, etc.
I made a little test: used a Russian character — ё and it works, but when I use — ê (Dutch) it doesn't. May it have something to do with the Region setting in International panel?
Thanks in advance,
KasyanKasyan, as of Leopard AppleScript treats all text as Unicode pre this you can specify 'as Unicode text'. Try a test with these.
-- Leopard
set x to POSIX path of (path to desktop)
-- Pre Leopard
set x to POSIX path of (path to desktop as Unicode text)
-- Leopard
set x to POSIX path of (choose file without invisibles)
-- Pre Leopard
set x to POSIX path of ((choose file without invisibles) as Unicode text) -
