I have a around 45 OS X 10.4.11 clients in a school that I have recently installed iWorks 09 on and through this I have realised that the clients language is set to English (US) which is causing some issues in the spell checker. Â I don't fancy changing the language on all of them manually so I was wondering if it was possible to write a script in AppleScript that would do this for me..

Aside from defining a Custom format, is there a way to restore the "Italy (English)" original setting?

Under Language & Text there are 4 tabs:
Language
Text
Formats
Input Sources
I have added a language under the first tab, Language, only to find that there is no correspondingly supported input option under the fourth tab, Input Sources.
I would now like to remove the entry I added under the first tab, Langauge, but cannot figure out how to do this. I have tried highlighting and pressing delete, dragging it out of the window, etc., but so far nothing works.

I am buying PowerBooks for students here in Brazil. They all have some level of OSX 10.4 but are in English. I need to change the base language to Portuguese. Is there a way to do this without the original install disks?
I may have one or two systems with OSX 10,5, so the same question applies there.
i'm using Mac OS X in English but i'm French and need the spell checker in French. Each time I have to change the language of the whole interface, log out and log in again.
I checked the Dictionnary preferences thinking it might be linked but I can't see any French options.
Do you have any idea how i can modify this setting so that the spell checker in Safari or Firefox or any programs switches to French?

View 4 Replies View Relatedwhen I write in German, I copy the text into Firefox and use the German spell checker, then copy my work back.Today I had a massive "duh" moment, when I realised that OSX has built in spell checking.Now, I am writing an email in German, and I would like to change the language of the email to German and have the spelling checked automatically instead of me having to go through each word and telling OSX that it's a German word
View 2 Replies View Relatedyou would be kind enough to perform the following test and tell me what result you get (it should take five minutes)?
1) login to MyInfo page: [URL]
2) select "Contact Prefs" and set "Preferred Language" to a language different from your country default language
3) Logout (very important)
4) starts iTunes, go in the iTunes Store and connect to view your account (click on your AppleID in the top right corner)
5) select "Edit Payment Information"
6) change nothing, just press Done twice to go back to the iTunes Store
7) login to MyInfo page again:[URL]
8) check if Contact Prefs->Preferred Language was set to your country default
9) come back to this thread and report the result (with your country)
In my case (from Switzerland iTunes Store) my Preferred Language is reset to German each time and it is quite annoying. I've tried to report this to the iTunes Support, but their answer was something like: "we need to test your account." And after having done that:we're happy to tell you that your preferred language is now set to English." Not very useful as you can see.
I want every app to "remember" its current language input. And I don't mean that it should remeber it on osx boot, but after I open it and switch language input.
