Can you please help me in my issue?
I can not change the login language eventhow I follow the instruction do do it from System Preferences. When I try the Terminal I can not put my pasword.
Thank you in advance!
iMac, Mac OS X (10.6.8)
Thanks a lot for your reply,
Unfortunatelly I have already done both steps described at the article (System preferences & Terminal), but nothing changed.
To be specific when I place the command "sudo languagesetup" in Terminal, after pressing enter my pasword can not be typed.
Is there another way to solve the problem?
Thanks again!
What happens when you enter your password? It's normal for the characters you type not to be shown.
I can't type anything. Another thing I see is that after I launch terminal and quiting it when I relaunch terminal the first lines are not displayed, but I see a blank window.
When I launch terminal the message displayed is:
Last login: Sat Jun 2 17:43:41 on console
Arismiles:~ macuser$
When I copy
sudo languagesetup
I can not place my password
Please post a screenshot of the Terminal window showing the problem.
And I can not type any password.
Thanks for your time!!
That's how it should be. When you type the password, you won't see what you're typing. You just have to be careful. Type it and press the return key. If you make a mistake, it will show "Sorry, try again."
There is nowhere to 'place' your password.
Just type it in and press return.
Nothing will appear on the screen as you do this. You'll know it was right when the language setup prompt appears!
Edit;
Sorry Linc, should have refreshed again before posting 😊
I understood what you were saying about not seeing the password typed.
I'm sending you another screenshot, after I entered my password and 2 screenshots from System Preferences.
Thow the language (if I correctly understand) should be English, in login window and in every porgramme I launch Greek language is set as default.
The languagesetup command only changes the language of the login screen. Nothing else. In your first screenshot above, you should enter 1 (if you want English) and then press return.
Now you're raising another issue. In the menu bar, you should see an icon with a Greek flag. Click on that icon and select English from the menu. If you don't want to use Greek input at all, uncheck Greek in the Input Sources tab, as shown in your third screenshot.
Thanks for your patience!
Where should I enter 1 (for English)? I can not understand.
In the menu bar both lanuages are dislpayed (when I click) and they change normally with cmd+space.
I want to use Greek language also.
Sorry if I will not reply immediately, I must leave in a while.
Enter 1 at the question-mark prompt in the Terminal window, then press return.
All your other screenshots look normal, so I'm not sure what the problem is.
A did enter 1 in the Terminal. So now the language in the menu bar in startup is English, and programms start with English language!
However login window still remains in Greek language...
In the Input Sources tab, is Greek still at the top? Have you rebooted since you ran the languagesetup command? If not, please try that.
I rebooted and in the Input Sources tab, Greek is still at the top.
Can't change login language
