Why does the English keep defaulting back to US and not British

Why does the English keep defaulting back to US and not British.
This is clear enough it does what it says in English British English

Where do you get this problem?
Is this with the spell checking dictionary or with the language setting?

  • Why does the tab button in Safari close safari and not open a new tab?

    Why does the tab button in Safari close Safari and not open a new tab?

    Try a reset: Simultaneously hold down the Home and On buttons until the device shuts down. Ignore the off slider if it appears. Once shut down is complete, if it doesn't restart on it own, turn the device back on using the On button. In some cases it also helps to double click the Home button and close all apps BEFORE doing the reset.

  • Why does the Time Capsule of my neighbour appears and not mine?

    Why does the The Time Capsule of my neighbour appears and not mine?  I tried everything.
    Can I use the Capsule as merely a back up without making use of Wifi?  By connecting by cable to the computer?

    Why does the The Time Capsule of my neighbour appears and not mine?  I tried everything.
    What generation is your neighbour's and what generation is yours??
    Sometimes the changes in the TC and firmware can make wireless fail.. also location is important.. the location of your neighbours might be better than yours.. his also might interfere with yours.. set a fixed channel and try the various channels.
    Can I use the Capsule as merely a back up without making use of Wifi?  By connecting by cable to the computer?
    Sure, but you need to work out how the network is going to work.. if you are still picking up network from wireless.. then set static ip for the TC in a different IP range.. set no gateway (router ip) or dns and it will work just fine.

  • Why does the Wi-Fi work on my iPod  and not my Macbook?

    The router is an arms length away and my Ipod#4 works great. but I cannot get my Macbook to get connected. Whats up?

    Does the iPod connect to other networks?
    Does the iPod see the network?
    Any error messages?
    Do other devices now connect?
    Did the iPod connect before?
    Try the following to rule out a software problem:                 
    - Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
    Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Power off and then back on the router
    - Reset network settings: Settings>General>Reset>Reset Network Settings
    - iOS: Troubleshooting Wi-Fi networks and connections
    - Wi-Fi: Unable to connect to an 802.11n Wi-Fi network
    - iOS: Recommended settings for Wi-Fi routers and access points
    - Restore from backup. See:
    iOS: How to back up
    - Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.
    If still problem make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store since it appears you have a hardware problem.

  • Why does the Firefox icon on my desktop read1788 and not Mozilla?

    Recently the Mozilla icon on my desktop changed from reading Mozilla to 1788 (the writing right under blue the Mozilla Firefox symbol) . Is this something Mozilla has done or is there an issue I need to resolve and if so how to I resolve this issue?
    Also are there any free virus protection, that work with Mozilla?
    Thank you in advance for any help you can give me in this matter.

    No, the desktop shortcut hasn't been renamed. First, make sure it's really pointing to Firefox and not something else:
    1. Right-click the icon and choose Properties.
    <br>2. In the Properties window, click the Shortcut tab.
    <br>3. Make sure the Target field says<br>
    "C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\firefox.exe"
    4. If it does, then click the General tab.
    <br>5. In the text box at the top, enter the name you want for the shortcut.
    <br>6. Click the OK button when done.
    I take it you're having problems with the avast! Online Security add-on, which is why you have it disabled? Any add-on that scans every link on every page is bound to add a delay to loading time. If you're having more severe issues, you can ask for help on the Avast forum:
    * http://forum.avast.com/index.php?board=2.0
    That add-on isn't required for virus and malware protection. Here are some alternatives to the features it provides:

    Hello stephiejoy,
    Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
    The following support article will help you in resolving this issue your iPad is having with its audio.  Even though this article states it's for an iPhone, the same troubleshooting steps do apply to your iPad as well.

  • Why does my ipad1 keep closing out of games and Facebook before I want too?

    Why does my ipad1 keep closing out of games and Facebook when I am looking at still playing or checking comments on Facebook? This has been happening more and more frequently.

    Try reseting the iPad (different from restarting). Hold down on both the Sleep and Home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds (ignore the red slider button). Keep holding both buttons until the Apple Logo appears. When you see the Apple logo on the black screen, let go of both buttons. Once it powers back up, try your games and Facebook. This "reset" fixes a lot of weird iPad issues.
    Hope this answers your question!

    Agreed.  Even the iPhone has multiple built-in keyboards to choose from.

  • Why does the same song apear as $0.99 and $1.29?

    Why does the same song appear more than once and costs either $0.99 or $1.29?

    Sometimes the exact same song will have two different prices when it appears on two different albums.
    For one of many examples, "Concrete Angel" is 99 cents when it's on "Greatest Hits":
    http://itunes.apple.com/us/album/greatest-hits/id256344266
    But it is $1.29 when it is on the album "Hits and More":
    http://itunes.apple.com/us/album/hits-and-more/id492676107
    The reason is not obvious, but feel free to buy the cheaper one.

  • Why does my php export feature work in IE and not firefox?

    Why does my php export feature work in IE and not Firefox? I've written a web application which contains a SigmaGrid. The grid controls reload, add update delete, print and export to csv all work in IE8. The export feature does not work in Firefox.

    I'm not sure what's going on for you. I've had 4 other developers - two on Comcast and two on Fios review my work and they get the control and export action in the IE8 version but not the FF10 version.
    Thanks for looking into this for me, though. I appreciate the effort. '' The operation was a success doctor, but the patient died.''

  • Why does this error keep coming back every time I wish to download a rented movie? Err = -50.

    I keep getting an error after renting a movie. It's usually Err = -50. I tried deleting my downloads folder (as instructed) which has only worked a few times now. The error keeps coming back. Also, I have a movie stuck in my downloads. It won't go away.

    Hi there
    This often occurs if your computer does not meet the minimum system requirements for viewing HD content in iTunes. You can find more information, including system requirements, in the article below.

  • Why does the "find my iphone" ap say i'm not connected to the internet when i clearly am?

    I can see web pages, update facebook status, tweet, etc. but this ap says i'm not connected to the internet (wifi and Verizon LTE).  Also, why does the podcast ap say its unable to authorize to automatically update my podcasts (which automatically download to my mac book pro every day without a problem)?

    Go here:
    Settings > iTunes & App Stores > tap your Apple ID: > View Apple ID > Country/Region
    and confirm that it's set to the correct country for your account. If it is, try signing out of your account and back in.
    Hope this helps.

  • HT1560 If diagnostics says appletv is working properly, why does the install keep getting stuck on pairing with the computer then back to select resolution over and over.

    First gen Appletv suddenly stopped working from one night to the next. This has happened in the past once and the usual restore, reboot, etc, tinkering finally snapped it back into working quite unexpectadly. The symptom is, after restore when it gets to the screen to pair with itunes by entering the numbers in itunes, the number is briefly up on the tv screen and then quickly is gone returning to the select resolution page. This happens over and over with each try while the Appletv never shows up in itunes and the number box never appears either to pair the computer with the Appletv. It does the same thing with my intel macbook so I don't think it's the Imac. I have dumped itunes 10 and reloaded itunes 9 with no change in the problem. My IP scanner picks up that the Appletv is on our network as soon as it turns on. I have used wireless, which it finds and logs into, and ethernet which also has it finding my network. I can't test whether it is actually on the network by trying to play a trailer or something because it will not go past that pairing screen in the initial setup. Are the built in diagnostics reliable when they say your appletv is working correctly. The hard drive isn't making any exceptionally loud noise as it spins up. I am stuck with this unit because I use it with a G4 Imac running Tiger 10.4 for a video/audio jukebox at the bar. New ATV won't work with the Imac unless it's running leopard I believe. The thing runs like molasses already so attempting leopard which I don't have anyway would really make it crawl. I love a good mystery/problem but this thing is driving me crazy. If I just could know for sure what component inside was shot I would replace it. Could a hard drive boot up to a degree and then get stuck at one part of the install, or would it have to be the logic board, or something else. Bad juju in the house or something

    Had same problem this finally stopped it for me.
