Why doesn't iOS/OSX auto-capitalize "Chinese"?

So I just happened to notice this recently and was curious why this was so.  Apparently iOS/OSx doesn't auto capitalize Chinese as it does every other nationality/ethnicity, anybody know why? Just curious.

Interesting.
Whilst I would describe myself as ignorant on the matter I have the perception that all Chinese characters appear the same height. (that being the most telling difference in western/roman characters).
My daughter visited China  in 2008  and took pictures of street signs and the like but I would not say I could spot any difference.
Is capitalization just something we in the west (as it were) do in Translation ?

  • Why doesn't iOS get viruses?

    Why doesn't iOS get viruses?

    iOS is a closed system.  You can't download to it, or from it, unless it's within the tightly controlled Apple universe.
    Here is a link to a recent article which offers a more comprehensive answer:

  • Why doesn't PS have auto-recover?

    This is probably the one thing about PS that bugs the crap out of me. If Photoshop crashes while you are working something, it is lost forever. I was working on a digital painting a couple of days ago, and I went to save it, and PS crashed.
    Every other program (Word, Powerpoint, Excel etc.) has an auto-save/auto-recover feature. Why doesn't PS have one? It seems silly for it not to.

    This has been discussed in several other threads, so do a search. As far as I'm concerned any such request doesn't make sense given how PS currently works and how the file format is structured. There's simply no realistic and safe way to save potentially large files in a few (micro-)seconds before a crash nor would that work as an auto-backup. Too many external factors and constant disk activity would have other negative side-effects... If you get my meaning: It's one thing to save a few kilobytes from a Word document in a few blips, but a totally different one shuffling around gigabytes.

  • HT5457 Why doesn't iOS 6 work on original ipad?

    I don't understand why iOS 6 doesn't work on the original ipad... any help?

    Nobody here knows the definitive answer as to why the original iPad will not run iOS 6. Only Apple could answer that question and they aren't saying. The bottom line is - it isn't supported. I have the original iPad and in my opinion, the processor could never handle what iOS has to offer. There would probably be crashes galore and the iPad would become a useless brick.
    If your asking and looking for a reason is cathartic for you, have at it. But you are just wasting your time looking for the reason.

  • Why doesn't IOS Maps show a map any more?

    So, when I was stuck in New York city for five days last week, I wound up using the new IOS maps app for the first time, on my iphone 4.
    It worked fine for a day or two... then, for some reason, it stopped loading maps. 
    It would show a blue dot where I'm at, and little traffic warnings would appear, but no streets, no nothing.
    If I tell it to load satellite views, that works fine, but regualr maps doesn't.
    Now that I'm finally back home in LA, it's still doing the same thing.
    I've manually closed the app, and done a hard reboot on the phone, and it still does the same thing.
    Seriously, having a map app that stops working when you're stranded in a strange city with a hurricane barrelling down on you and you're trying to walk from your power-out old hotel to a new one was no fun...

    Sorry I thought you meant that you just closed (suspended) the app.  Unfortunately I haven't heard of this problem before and haven't seen and KB articles on troubleshooting maps.  If closing Maps, then restarting the phone didn't fix it, guess I would make an appointment with the genius bar at a nearby Apple store and have them take a look at it.

  • Why doesn't my phone auto-lock after one minute?

    From the settings - it's checked to auto-lock after a minute, but for some reason - this does not always happen. I have tried turning off the phone and back on again - that did not work. How can this be resolved?

    probably. turn it off for sometime , restart the phone and check.

  • Why doesn't creative cloud auto login anymore?

    I used to automatically login to creative cloud every time I booted my computer. Now it prompts me to login even if I am not using an Adobe product. I have looked for a setting to toggle but have not seen one.
    Running CC 1.9.1.474
    Windows 8.1 fully updated
    I also have a Mac running updated Yosemite and don't have this problem on that side, just in Windows.

    Hear hear!
    Would like to use InCopy with our CC subscription but until it becomes part of CC we'll use the excellent Em Software DocsFlow for Google Docs.
    Adobe, you're not going to get any usage stats for InCopy until you make it part of CC.

  • Why doesn't external disk auto-mount?

    I have a fairly new Lacie 500Gb external drive attached to our AEBS. My problem is that to connect to it we continually have to enter the password, despite clicking on Remember Password. Once we type in the password it works fine, until the next time we log in, etc.
    I remember having this problem with an earlier version of the Airport software, though some time ago, on an even earlier version, the disk would mount perfectly each time. It's a pain having to continually type in the password every time we want to access the Lacie on any of our Macs in the house.
    All our software is completely up-to-date. Any ideas for a fix?
    thanks, Rachel

    You could try something that I only recently discovered myself...
    Go to System Preferences > Accounts.
    Under your account, click on Login Items. Then click '+', and direct it to your external drive.
    This means everytime you logon, it should automatically mount your external drive.

  • Why doesn't Firefox auto-update Flash Player like Chrome does?

    For security reasons and less hassle, I like Chrome auto-updates Flash Player. Why doesn't Firefox do this?

    Google Chrome has it's own version of the Flash plugin that is apart of the Google Chrome installation files.<br />
    So Google needs to do a full update with every Flash release.
    Firefox uses the Flash plugin as installed in your Linux distribution,<br />
    If your Ubuntu Linux distribution doesn't have an automatic update for Flash then you need to do that manually.
