I would like to install East Asian language support on my XP Pro sp2 machine but I no longer have the original CD that I used to install the OS. I tried borrowing a friend's CD for XP Pro sp1 and the files seemed to install properly from the i386lang directory on the CD but the language functionality still does not work.Does anyone know if you can download the language pack from MS. Otherwise, it seems that I need the contents of the i386lang directory from an XP Pro sp2 CD, which I don't have.
At Regional and Language Options Text service and Input languages Under Prefrences, Language Bar appear grey and cant press. So how to fix this problem? I prefer just install some program from CD or type some paramater to recover and i don't wanna to buy software.
Is there anyway to get the dialog box in Internet Explorere asking if I want to install a "language" to pop up again after I have clicked " never install any language packs"
I am trying to install this DOS based program onto my computer. The thing is, the program is in Greek and DOS doesn't recognize the font, all I get when I open it are a bunch of random symbols. With the program I did receive an application called grkeyb.com, which, I am assuming is the font I need. I don't know anything about DOS
i right click on taskbar toolbar language bar. I uncheck it and disappers on the taskbar. And the trillion dollar software puts it back in few minutes.
I have looked through several threads about this problem and have tried the solutions suggested but so far no success. I hope someone maybe able to come up with something.I have XP Professional installed. On Control Panel/Regional & Language Options/Languages/Details/Advanced the "turn off advanced text services" always seems to get rechecked. Even if you uncheck it the language bar on the task bar does not appear (even though it is ticked on Taskbar/right-click/Toolbars). If the Language bar option becomes available on Control Panel/Regional & Language Options/Languages/Details/Settings, when you open it all the Language Bar Settings are greyed out.
Windows XP-P. Suddenly the language task bar disappeared. I tried all options in regional language setting, not succesful. I have unchecked the "Turn off advanced text services", and clicked "apply", and then goto Preferences>Language Bar, but all Options are greyed out, I can't click any one of the 4 options. And when go back to the Advanced setting, the "Turn off advanced text services" went back to checked position.
Not a serious problem, just an annoyance. One day, I started my computer, and the Language Bar was activated on my tool-bar. I turned it off, but then next time I restarted my computer, it was there again. Basically, any time that I restart my computer, I have to close the language bar.
Anyone know how to get rid of the "Language Bar"? I thought it might have been a group policy at work that was causing it to reappear after I manually unchecked it in the toolbars option, but I am getting the same problem on my home computer as well.Both PC's (home and work) are running XP SP2. The only difference (if it means anything) is that the work PC is running Office 2003, and my home PC has Office 2007 Beta2TR.
I just installed the East Asian language package from Control Panel > Language Options. However, I can't get my language bar to appear anywhere. I clicked on Details and Language Bar preferences, and I have "Show Language Bar on Desktop" checked.
My friend just bought a new Dell desktop computer with XP home edition, and I tried to add Chinses language for him. But when I open the available languages list, I found, to my surprice, Chinese is not on it. I think Dell must have customized XP and somehow deleted Chinese. Is there a way to add it? Or there is nothing I can do?
This thing apperently happens randomly and it happens when I turn my laptop on. There is suppose to be the language bar between (3) and (4) but I tried pushing it into place (apperently I push too much) that it disappeared. From experience I know that all I need to do is restart my computer and all will be well. But I want to solve this problem once and for all, so if anyone can help I will appreciate it alot.here is an image of my problem:http://i71.photobucket.com/albums/i1...untitled-1.jpg Oh and I would like to add that the language bar is not suppose to be between (3) and (4). It's suppose to have only one divider, so in other words, it should be between (4) and the arrow at the end of the system tray thingy. cheers!
xp pro sp3, office 2003. I work in 2 languages. I had a language bar in my task bar which allowed me always to see which was the chosen language at any time. This disappeared in 2 stages; first the language bar space still showed, but it was blank. Then the empty bar also disappeared. I tried to recover by using the control panel>regional settings>languages route, but the selection button for language bar is grayed out, and I am stuck in keyboard select.
I use the Windows Language Bar to switch between English and Japanese characters.I can do this by pressing alt+shift but after a while when i start switching to Japanese characters the extra features ( letting me switch to hiragana or katakana so on ) disapear, so I can not switch.The defualt input is Direct Input ( english characters ) so when these features go away I can no longer use japanese characters at all.I restart my computer then it starts working for a while again.Would anyone know why the language bar just stops working?

I've lost usage of the language bar and, when I can make it appear, it behaves erratically.For example, the bar doesn't currently appear in the list of toolbars displayed when I right-click on the taskbar and choose Toolbars. If I go to Control Panel > Regional and Language Options > Languages tab > Details. I do see both languages currently installed: "English (United States) - US" and "French (Canada) - United States-International" -- but the Language Bar button at the bottom is greyed out.Other times, I have gotten the Language Bar to reappear in the taskbar, but with added options that I can't turn off, even if I right-click and uncheckable "Show additional Language Bar icons".I just want to get my old single "EN" / "FR" icon. Help!
