OS X :: Finding Turkish Translation For Leopard?
Nov 10, 2008I want to get a Macbook for my grandmother who only speaks Turkish. Are there Turkish (or other language) translations for Leopard? Is there a third party program that can translate your Leopard interface into different languages?
So far, I've done research and the answer seems to be NO. How does Apple expect to mount a serious challenge to MS and speak only English?
OS X :: Installing Turkish Language Without Disc?
Jun 10, 2010I'm in Turkey visiting my wife's grandmother. We intend to leave her the PowerBook 1.67 but the OS is all in English as I didn't install other languages to save space. I also have the habit of running Monolingual to remove any trace of other languages. Of course I don't have the copy of 10.5 with me and OS X is unheard of in the small town we are in. Is there anyway to download the Turkish language extensions/localizations from somewhere.

May 4, 2012When replacing pre-populated (untitled folder) or selected text in Finder, Safari, etc. a special character is added about 1/3 of the time. You can't see it in Finder, but it does show in file names viewed in Terminal, in URLs (only after you hit enter and Safari gets confused) in the file name at the top of certain apps, or on PCs.

OS X V10.7 Lion :: Insert Symbol From Junicode Font?
Mar 19, 2012I have a document in which I need Old English characters such as thorn, eth, ash and yogh. I have installed Junicode and it shows up in my font book, displaying all the characters I need under 'repertoire'. However, if in the word document, I go on INSERT/SYMBOL, the menu only displays a minimal number of characters and certainly not the ones I need. (This is where, on my PC, I had been able to choose the respective character and assign it a shortcut).

Apr 10, 2012I am trying to hunt down a mystery for a friend using her macbook air (Lion).
She is trying to add special characters (accents, etc.) to words in a MIcrosoft Word 2008 document.
Sometimes she can hold the key, and the special characters menu will pop up. Sometimes she will get the "old" repeating letter (eeeeeeeeeeeee). I tried to look at everything I could think of, but there seems to be no earthly reason why it does it sometimes but not all the time.
The only explanation I could guess at was that it was Word 2008 and Lion (and not Word 2011).

OS X :: Asian Characters Won't Display In X11
Nov 29, 2010I back-up my macbook (OSX10.4) to an Ubuntu box using the X11 terminal on my mac with rsync, however I'm having problems with Asian characters.
The Asian characters don't display in X11, which I can work around, however X11 interprets the characters in strange, seemingly random ways, which could include the carriage-return-key and other random hieroglyphs. This then causes a problem because when rsync compares the old and new copies of the files, it gets the names confused and thinks files have disappeared when they have not.

Hardware :: Characters Missing While Typing
Dec 29, 2009I am trying to see if anyone else has this problem. I am a two finger typer, but type fairly fast. I write a lot on my computer, every day. Generally, I look at the keyboard when typing. I also tend to type hard, but this issue is there even when I try to type softer.
My problem is that I'll type a paragraph and then look up to proof my text and a significant number of characters are missing. This has continued with three different systems and multiple keyboards (wired and wireless). Apparently, the problem is me, but I am still fascinated by this matter.
I spent a tremendous amount of wasted time adding characters that are missing. Given I type with two fingers, AND I stare at the keyboard, I cannot fathom how so many characters do not appear.
So far on this posting, I have had to add five missing characters. Just imagine how many corrections I have to make in a year. This single problem must cost me days of wasted time.
If you have any suggestions, I am open to anything. I have even thought of filming my typing to assure I hit each key, but could not get a good camera angle. I would need to use at least two cameras.
OS X :: File With Odd Characters In Its Name Won't Delete From Trash
Nov 6, 2008I was in the process of deleting Bioshock from a Windows fat32 drive while in OS X on my January 2008 Mac pro when it was unable to do so due permissions on some of the files and folder, so I just placed the whole bioshock folder back on the fat32 formatted drive, however ever since there has been a file in Trash labeled ␀␀␀␀␀.�� that wont be emptied, I do not receive a error message when I try to empty it, it just remains in there.
I am unable to use the get info right click option as when I do so the ␀␀␀␀␀.�� file vanishes for a few minutes and then just reappears in the Trash.
I am unable to move the file any where as when I try to do so it is as if I have not clicked on anything and the os does not acknowledge that anything has occurred.

View 1 Replies View RelatedOS X :: Application That Displays Invisible Characters?
Jun 22, 2009So I work with computational chemistry, and we usually work with files on windows boxes, however we've started the transition over to Mac Pros. I have my macbook pro, and I've installed the necessary software, however I have a problem.
We use Notepad to make the input files on XP, because it does not inbed any invisible characters (besides returns etc.) However, whenever I transfer a file (.txt) made with notepad over to my mac, the file will not run in the program we use. It gives an error that usually means you have invisible characters in your input file.
So if I retype the file in Textedit, (NOT copy and paste), the file works fine. The exact same (looking) input file. Does anyone know what's going on here, or know of an application that will let me see these pesky invisible characters? I've tried word, but couldn't find what I wanted,
