I open my pages or text edit and I want to write in Spanish. So i switch my lang to Spanish (default system lang is English). But when I visit Safari or Firefox, I want the language to automatically switch in English. I sometimes forget to do this manually and it gets annoying, especially when you start writing in spanish and after some minutes you realize you were actually writing English.
Is there a way to automatically switch between 2 languages, for the internet and for text editors?

I'm having a problem changing icons in 10.6.1. I have an .icns image I want to use as an icon, however when I go to "get info" and add the new icon, it just shows a blank ".icns" image.
Example (The icon I want to use is the CS4 icon to the right)
I am fairly new to the world of mac's and I'm having a problems with my photo's. On my old windows PC I have 1000's of photo's. When I right click on a photo in windows and go to 'details' it will tell me the exact date and time when it was taken. So if I then import them into some library software such as picasa, it sorts it them all out by this date. However, I've now copied all my photo's to my new imac and the 'date taken' field doesn't seem to be there. When I import them into iphoto or picasa etc, they are totally messed up and all over the place.
Why did OSX loose that data? I will try to explain a little better using screenshots. This screenshot is from windows: [URL]. At the top is says 'date taken' and any windows photo library software will sort it by this date. Below are the properties of the same file after it's copied to osx: [URL]. It contains lots of information about the picture but not when it was taken. So software such as iphoto or picasa sorts it by it's created date (which you can see at the top is Monday 12th January). Why isn't OSX carrying over the exif data on when the photo was taken?

Firefox blinks a QT logo but no image
Is this a QT10 issue? A Safari issue?
I made a website today, www.mediaeyemedia.com, and published it to the Internet but the movies on it don't show up on the pages. I used blank pages for all the movie pages and each one has a 320x240 quicktime and a 320x180 wmv. Can you put movies on blank pages or do you have to use the movies pages templates provided by IWeb to play movies?
View 2 Replies View RelatedFor reasons that I will not go into here, I have a first initial and middle name, not a first name and middle initial like most people. It played havoc with the registrar at my college. My Address Book card has my first name as "G" and my middle name as "Ralph". Whenever programs automatically fill in my name, they use my first initial only. For example, Pages puts my author name as "G Kuntz". Is there any way to get my default name to be "G Ralph Kuntz", other than setting my first name to "G Ralph" and my middle name to blank ("")?

View 1 Replies View RelatedSo after searching and figuring out how to change the default font for most everywhere on Pages [URL], I am still having trouble changing footnotes/endnotes to Times New Roman as the default font. On my desired document, I create a new footnote, type something, change the entire font to Times New Roman, then delete the footnote before saving as a template.
View 1 Replies View RelatedIt's easy enough creating a template to change the default fonts for pages, but what I can't work out is how to change the default font and font size for footnotes/endnotes. It should be different from the main body in terms of size, but the same font. I found a script on the apple support forums, but 1. it doesn't do what I want it to do and 2. I haven't the foggiest about apple scripts.

I recently switched from windows Microsoft Word to Mac pages. I just wanted to know how, when I press tab to go to a new bullet indent level, I can make it do a certain order (Circular bullet, dash, Another kind of bullet, etc.) without changing the type of bullet through the inspector each time.
View 1 Replies View RelatedSomething I've done in the past few days has caused Safari to not change color for visited links "only" on Google search pages, which is where it's most needed. This is still working fine on FireFox. I tried creating another user account and it works fine with that...just not with my primary account.
I've done all the typical things...repaired permissions, repaired disk, completely reset Safari to default and made sure all caches, etc. were cleaned out...both manually and with Onyx, reset associated .plist files, history, cookies, private browsing...
Returning to a Google search page still shows all visited links as blue, as if they'd never been visited. Another clue is if I log out of my Google account (which I have to be logged into 24/7 for Gmail, Google bookmarks, iGoogle, etc., it starts working, then stops working as soon as I log into my Google account again. I posted this on Google Groups but got no response.
This also works fine on my wife's Mac, so it's definitely a problem just in my user account. I know I could just add a new account and use that, but it would mean re-installing all 70 applications I have now installed as they're not setup for use except with my account. I'd like to avoid that and find the actual culprit. BTW, this worked fine for a long time...just quit working about a week ago, but it wasn't in conjunction with any new hardware or software.
My computer shows self-assigned IP and will not connect to the internet. I have no internet through wireless airport extreme base. Everything was working fine until I tried to add airport express.

As a new Mac user and as the result of my machinations in the iMac Lion OS, I managed to wind up with an extra PC showing in the Shared section of the Finder Sidebar. I show my wife's PC and Time Capsule but I have an extra PC named Gerry581e of which I have no idea. I would like to know how to delete it from the list.

I appear to have used up a huge proportion of my 1TB storage space! Usual stuff like movies, photos, word files appears to have used up just over 100GB but then i have 'other' shown as about 800GB! Is there anyway I can find out what 'other' actually represents?

My computer name keeps changing. I thought it was my printer network that was causing it but now I see that the "new" name is ACTIVE in Network-->WINS of System Preferences. It shows the computer's WINS-->NetBIOS Name as Name-2. And it says it is active.
To turn it off so I can disable it? What it is and how can I keep it from changing again? Why this happens (see above).
I do have MS Office on the computer and I have locked down changes to my Printer Network, to NAME instead of NAME-2. (The printer is connected USB but has network capability.)
I only have my computer on the MAC Router, no other computers are networked to it. (I do have an iPad, iPod & iPhone.)
I keep putting the name back and it keeps changing itself back to NAME-2.

Based upon my inability to update my iPad2 with its latest iOS 5.0.1, I was encouraged to and did change my DSN preferences in system preferences to the two Google ones (8.8.8.8 and 8.8.4.4). I think what I replaced were the original preferences put in place by my Internet provider, Charter.net. Are there adverse consequences of changing the DSN, and should I change them back to those placed there originally?

Purchased my iMac 27" back in October 2011. It was fine up until around February this year until my screen brightness started flickering automatically. I have the ambient/auto brightness setting switched off and after many discussions with apple care on the phone I have been advised to bring my iMac back in to the store.
1) is this a common problem a lot of people have experienced with iMacs?
2) Do you think it will be repaired or replaced?
3) Does this happen with the macbook airs as I was planning to purchase one for university in September, however if this problem occurs with their laptop range then I will opt for windows.

I changed the ip of my printer to 192.168.1.3 because I have a new router and that seems to be the range. I can ping that IP. When I choose that printer the printer setup says socket://192.168.1.105/?bidi which is my old IP. Not sure where I change that.
