Set a language preference

(Someone asked the same question a few years ago but I don't know if, in the meantime, some smart update has changed the situation. So, here I am.)

I speak Italian, French and a little English but, as (I assume) the majority of the people in the world, very rarely I buy books in languages different from mine OR when I choose to do, I go to this specific tray or this specific book store.

In iBooks, the situation is completely reversed by the lack of a feature allowing me to display only books written in my native language: they are literally hidden in the middle of hundreds of other books in English, french and German (I'm Switzerland, so you can imagine what I mean). The only thing I can do is to look for a specific word or words and then choose a language... But if I want to take a look at all THE Italian books in the store or in a specific category (that's what I really need), I simply can't.

It's very frustrating and I always leave the store after a few minutes without having to buy anything...

If I'm missing something, thanks for any help!

Otherwise, I hope that Apple will change something, soon...

PS: Sorry for my bad English (probably I must read more English books)

To tell Apple you want this feature added, go to

  • How to set the language of the application in the yosemite

    I am located in Sweden, but use the English language on my computer. Yosemite is configured to work in English. Stbbonly Firefox insists on having a Swedish interface!

    I never had this problem in the Mavericks (10.9)

    Hello Svenne_I, you can choose the language at the time of installation (but default firefox would have offered you the Swedish version when it detects that the request is from Sweden).
    You can simply go to https://www.mozilla.org/firefox/all/ where all languages are listed and download and install the English version on top of your current installation - all your Favorites, passwords and customizations will remain...

  • Best practices: set a language for an InDesign document

    Comment please let me know if I'm doing this wrong.

    1. I inherited an English identity document, and when I tried the spell check ran into a problem that has been updated in 'Language' 'Spanish '. The dictionary has already been updated with English.
    2. So, I chose the cursor of the object, so that nothing in the document has been selected and then clicked on Type > character and set the language to English.
    3. In vain, spell check always for the same reason.
    4. So, I chose the cursor of the object, Cttrl + A to select the entire document and then clicked Type > character and set the language to English. Subsequently, the spell worked.

    This last step, 4, what do you expect to be necessary to set the language of a document, or step 2 should have it? Thoughts on the definition of popular document language. BTW, ID online help... bloody useless.

    Language is a character attribute, so it must be set for text. It has nothing to do with dictionaries in the preferences of your choice.

    If you are sure that there are no words that should not be attributed to English, you can use find/replace to change the language, or redefine styles. or both.

  • Translations: how to set the language of the application

    Hello

    I have a translated application (our company site). It is created with a primary language Danish = (app_id = 100).
    It has been translated into English (app_id = 201). The global settings for the application (100) is configured to use the browser
    preferred language to determine the language of the application.

    This works very well for the browsers value Danish (da) or English (en). However when french, Germans and others open the application it
    by default, Danish - which is not easy to understand for them :-).

    What I would like is that any browser that is not defined in Danish, will receive the English version of the application.
    Can it be done?

    Hi Martin,

    Well, you can control this is derived from the language of the application preference of an application or a preference element. Then, you can use the language of the browser to dynamically set the preferred language of the user application. It's like some pseudocode:

    declare
        l_browser_lang varchar2(4000);
    begin
        l_browser_lang := owa_util.get_cgi_env ('HTTP_ACCEPT_LANGUAGE');
        if substr(l_browser_lang,1,instr(l_browser_lang,',')-1) = 'da' then
            :FSP_LANGUAGE_PREFERENCE := 'da';
        else
            :FSP_LANGUAGE_PREFERENCE := 'en';
        end if;
    end;
    

    In this way, it is now for you to determine the rules when someone receives the Danish version compared to the English version. Does make sense?

  • Setting the language on a desire to 4500

    I am a contractor who works with Japan (Yokosuka). I need a printer/scanner and found the envy of 4500 to an electronics store. The sellers tell me (I think), which will come with a manual Japaneese and be set up for Japaneese only envy. I see that I can download a manual in English and wants to buy the 4500 all-in-one. If I do, I'll be able to change the language to English when I put in place? And the online manual will be the same?

    Thank you

  • How to change the graphic length setting in the preferences?

    I created a 200 image animation and put executives in Premiere CS4.  When I dragged them in the timeline panel, each image is automatically 5 seconds in length.  I don't want that each image to be 1 frame in length so I went in the EDIT > PREFERENCES and changed the setting to 1 frame.  See below:

    FRAME.jpg

    After that I clicked on OK and tried to drag an image on the timeline, he is always put to 5 seconds in length.  I also recorded the project, first closed, reopened, and it still does not work. Can someone tell me what I am doing wrong?  Is there another way to set it up so that when I drag a framework, it will be a 1 frame?

    You must set the preferences before importing the stills.

    It does work on the photos already imported.

    What you can do:

    (6) install the product again with the tag 'Install' next to the product. If the 'Install' tag is not displayed and the product is not yet run in the appropriate languages, uninstall the product (/ Applications/Utilities/Adobe installers /...) and then try to install again.
