Wierd Language

I have been having a very strange language isssue. When I goto "About This Mac" and select more info, the langauge changes out of English. I have gone to the international settings and English is at the top of the list, then British English, Candadian English, then French. When I select "More Info", the language changes to French. Everything else is in English, just not "More Info". Any Ideas why?

Create a new Finder window and click on the Applications item in the sidebar. From here, open the Utilities folder and select the System Profiler application. Choose Get Info from the File menu and uncheck everything except English under Languages. If English doesn't appear in the list, use Pacifist to extract a new copy of the System Profiler from the Mac OS X 10.39 combo updater; some parts of it may need to be extracted from a set of Panther installation disks.

  • Junk symbols for asian language characters in PO PDF

    Hi,
    We have a custom program to generate the PO output and I have changed it to send the PO output to multiple emails/users using the steps given in the below link.
    The issue I'm facing is that when the PDF is generated and emailed,if I open the PDF in the email,for asian language characters in the PO data,I see wierd symbols.
    Has anyone faced this issue?
    This is happening for even the standard PO output/email which is sent out which indicates that this is something with the WINDOWS/ADOBE settings .
    Any pointers will be highly appreciated.
    Thanks.

    Hello,
    You have to make sure that the spool was created by the correct device type which does support
    the language, you can change to the cascading device type SWINCF in SPAD, all unicode characters
    can be handled by this device type, note 812821.
    Secondly, goto SCOT-> Settings-> Device Types for Format Converstion, here you must set the
    correct device type too, you can change the device type to also SWINCF here for the used form language.
    Best regards,

  • Adobe X prints first in English then in another language

    Using Windows XP, IE 8, Adobe Reader X and HP Laserjet 4000 printer. Sometimes when I print email PDF attachments from Office Outlook 2003, the attachments start printing in English and then subsequent pages turn into an oriental language (not sure which one). If I view the attachment prior to printing all the pages are clearly in English. Other times if I print the item and it is okay (in English), if I reprint it, it may start in English and then goes to the other language. I have not incurred anything like this in any other printing program that I use such as Word or Excel. I have no idea why this is happenning. Any ideas what causes this and if so how to correct this?

    hello,
    i'll snip in below:
    - What OS are you on and version thereof? (ex Window 7 64-bit, OSX 10.7.4, etc)
    i'm runing 10.7.4
    - What language is your OS set to?
    my OS is set to english.

    - Is this a home computer or work computer on a network? just want to ensure you are an administrator
    home computer.
    - Does the language appear to be the same regardless of if you reisntall?
    yes unfortuneatley. i un-installed the entire suite and kicked everything off my desk top, then went back through the download process again, downloaded all apps and it still came out foriegn.
    now, here's is something -- when i got my first iphone, it thought i was a forienger and i had to go into my phone and set the language there. but when i turned on the iphone for the first time, it was another language.
    so that adds a level of wierdness huh? (to fix it, i had to go onoine and look at a series of screenshots so i could tell where i was in the settings screens)
    - Which products have you installed already that you are seeing this in?
    anyhting CS6 related. illustrator, photoshop and in-design. basically the suite.
    thanks a ton for trying to help. i'll post a screen shot of the language.
    WELL look at that. i just went to open the application manager and now its all in english. hahahahaha... 2 hours ago it wasn't... i'll report back!

  • IPad Air/iOS8.1 - Text to speech issue with multiple languages.

    Hi,
    I'm facing troubles while letting my iPad Air (iOS 8.1) to read a text (pdf book in English) loud as it reads one page correctly in English (text is in English)while some other pages it tries to read in Czech (text in English), which sounds strange (and it is hard to understand too). I have both languages installed. Same issue happened with a web site content as well.
    Could anyone please help me with that?
    I need let iPad read the book loud at once, as it is written - in English.
    Many thanks,
    M.

    Hi Tom,
    thanks for responding.
    It is unlikely. I have just opened the pdf and swiped with two fingers from the top of the iPad' rim and the "read all page" function has immediately started to read the content automatically.
    But as it ends reading this page and continues to read the next one, the problem occures (Czech voice starts to read english text on the second page, which is in English too). iPad stayed untouched during reading.
    Nor if I try to select block of text. If I select just few words on both pages, the reading option appears, giving me option to choose language. Then it works correctly on both "sample" pages. But if I do the same and tap and select whole page as a block of text, then again the issue occures.
    Wierd...
    Thanks for help.
    M.

  • Completely change language on mountain lion

    Hi,
    I'm quite new to mac and being French and not knowing what I needed to do to configure it (windows is quite difficult)... so someone dit it for me... (I was watching and it was actually very easy indeed but my problem is, the person configured it in French (yes I know it is wierd for a Frenchman to buy an apple with a AZERTY keyboard to configure the mac in English, but hey, we French are peculiar )
    Anyway, I looked on the internet and as it's a Mac, it's very easy (System Preferences>Text and Language and drag the language you want) so now it works but only when I log in...
    I noticed that when I switched it off and restarted it again, it remains in French, asking me my "Mot de Passe" instead of my passwork...
    Is there a way to change that, I could perfectly live with it, but I was wandering if I it was really possible without having to do the install all over again, so here am I.
    Could you help me (even if you've got the slightest idea?)
    Thank You,
    Kind Regards,
    Bad Gold Eagle

    Thanks for responding this quickly.
    I know that. It does stay in English after restart but when I do restart, I get the "password screen" which is in french. When I log in, it is in english. I get the impression that I change the language only for my desktop, that the computer itself stays in French.
    I was thinking more about a key to hold while it starts (white screen) to get to a hidden menu where I could mend that. (for example I know pressing the D key starts Hardware Test)
    About the keyboard, I haven't got such a problem: I have an AZERTY keyboard. But to get ß in german, you're right, very handy this.

  • Workbook title of Bex 7x  don't display in different logon languages

    Good morning Guys,
    I have created workbooks in new Bex 7x.
    Now: when I logon to BW in different language than english i.e. German I would expect that workbook titel will be transferred from its english version as german doesn't exist yet. This was the good behavior of old 3.x Bex.
    Surprisingly it doesn't display any readable title only GUID of the workbook like 1RC1X1R3UYM6COE2O5A12TTG0 .
    I have found similar thread regarding this on SDN, which is marked as answer but in fact is not.
    How to display workbook description based on their  logon langauge of BEX
    Does some of you know how to force system to display english title instead of that (like it was in old good 3.x Bex) and can share this knowledge?
    Thank you in advance.
    Marek.

    Dear Marek,
    Yes,it is True.
    With 7.x BEx,all the Tools display the Description as Technical Name for the Objects for DE as Login language.
    For Eg:In case of Workbook,the GUID will be shown as Description and Technical Name.
    With 3.x,it shows the Description properly,when the user logged in with DE (German) language.
    Though it looks wierd,this is an expected behaviour and as by design.
    Rgds,
    Murali

  • Per_accrual_calc_functions.Get_Net_Accrual language issue

    Hello,
    I am facing a wierd issue. It is very critical.
    I have built a custom page to display Accrual balances.
    I use the API: per_accrual_calc_functions.Get_Net_Accrual
    My customer has multiple languages.
    When the session language is English, the balances shown are correct. However, when I change it to 'Canadian French', the API returns all incorrect balances or null values depending on balance type.
    Below is the API trace information for English language:

    The entire execution path is same for both the trace files.
    Only the 'Date Format' look different and also the final output balances are different.
    Do, I need to do anything differently?

    Is there a way to trace the api call on the seeded page?
    I am able to trace the api call from custom page by using:
    HR_UTILITY.TRACE_ON(NULL,'CRE_BATCH');
    before calling the API.
    Even after using: HR_UTIL_MISC_SS.setEffectiveDate(p_calc_date); as in the seeded page, custom page behavior does not change.

  • What language is used between ?   ?

    I have the following sample code. What language is used? Why \u0022 is used? Is there any guide or documentation available for this?
    <? if (\u0022[DEST_DT]\u0022.equals(\u0022DATE\u0022)){?>TIMESTAMP<?} else if (\u0022[DEST_DT]\u0022.equals(\u0022NUMBER\u0022))

    The reason you will see these in place when the multiple phases of substitution are being taken advantage of.
    If you see the posts in Re: Regular Expression wierdness - problem with $ character you will see the phases.
    If you want to use multiple phases of substitution, you need to ensure that it is interpreted correctly.

  • Programming Language

    This might sound like a wierd question. If i wanted to learn a programming language where should I start? Is it possible to learn Java or C++ or something like that on the Mac? What are your suggestions?
    Thanks...
    Rob

    If you plan on programming specifically for Mac I would definately recommend Cocoa (Obj-C) since it is the "native" programming environment for Mac OS X. I would also recommend you to check apple's developer site for info on how to get started. There are a couple of books you might want to look into.

  • Gnome applets changed their language!!!

    Hey everyone,
    I have the following wierd thing happening. I shut my computer down, on which I am using Gnome with German language settings - everything worked fine and except for browsing the net I did not do anything that session.
    After 30 min I started my computer again and everything works fine - excpet for that the languages of the applets in the panel have changed. Not that the whole settings for gnome changed - no, just for the apllets - everything else is still german. I played with the language settings in gdm and nothing helped. I updated gnome to 2.8.1 but still the same error. The clock, Weather plugin, virtual desktops - everything is in english
    Well, if somebody knows how to solve that problem - please let me know!!!
    THANKS!!!!

    Hi, I have the same problem. My Language was Lithuanian with gnome applets

  • Imported text from word, all missing fonts found, but still have pink boxes for Turkish language

    Hi,
    I placed a document from word. The body font is ITC Garamond. Apparently ITC Garamond doesn't have some Turkish characters. Adobe Garamond however, does. So I was going through and selecting each pink box and changing the character to a new character style I created which is the Adobe Garamond Font. Surely there's an easier way to do this rather than me selecting each pink box? Can GREP do this? I would use the Find Font dialogue, but it shows all fonts as being fine, it doesn't show any missing fonts. So this seems to just be a wierd issue with ITC Garamond not having those special characters.
    I know what you're thinking, why not just make my body font Adobe Garamond Pro.... Well I can't right now. Not for this job. Maybe in the future I will, but for not it has to stay ITC Garamond condensed Book.
    Also, I should note that in the preflight panel, InDesign does not show the document as having any missing Glyphs either.... so Peter's Glyph script won't work.
    Thanks in advance.

    In your case I would not add or change a character style, change your paragraph style. A mix between 2 similar fonts looks terrible. You might need a character style for language purposes, to get through with hyphenation correctly, but this is a different thing.
    To change a font globally go to search font and replace and redefine styles.
    But if you really does not want to change the font you can crate a character style. And in your paragraph style go to GREP styles and select this chara style and write all glyphs and letters where you need this character style.
    Take care, if you use a different font you might have to scale in advanced properties, so that a glyph from the other form fits to the rest of the text.

  • All my .mov and DV changed into these wierd files ive never heard of Before.

    Did my computer get infected with some wierd virus? the files are named some bizarre binary code EXAMPLE:
    þü-¤é¯à.±Œ© date modified reads as dec 31st 1903 1:30 PM it says it is zero kb for file size and kind says ALIAS...
    Very strange all the files have a different wierd binary language and the modified dates are all dec 31st 1903.. 57 files have been affected.. they were all .MOV files or DV files before...this incident..now they dont work and are not recognized by finder..when i go to "get info" the dialog box appears for a half a second then dissapears..

    Hi Gary, is this the biit drive?
    Could be many things, we should start with this...
    "Try Disk Utility
    1. Insert the Mac OS X Install disc, then restart the computer while holding the C key.
    2. When your computer finishes starting up from the disc, choose Disk Utility from the Installer menu at top of the screen. (In Mac OS X 10.4 or later, you must select your language first.)
    *Important: Do not click Continue in the first screen of the Installer. If you do, you must restart from the disc again to access Disk Utility.*
    3. Click the First Aid tab.
    4. Select your Mac OS X volume.
    5. Click Repair Disk, (not Repair Permissions). Disk Utility checks and repairs the disk."
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=106214
    Then try a Safe Boot, (holding Shift key down at bootup), run Disk Utility in Applications>Utilities, then highlight your drive, click on Repair Permissions, reboot when it completes.
    (Safe boot may stay on the gray radian for a long time, let it go, it's trying to repair the Hard Drive.)
    If perchance you can't find your install Disc, at least try it from the Safe Boot part onward.
