Apple always turns my Finnish or English to Japanese I am in Japan but I found that when I call they want to speak English they say they can not understand my Japanese so how do I learn then ? In some parts they insist it in J@panese ,so I want to use Finnsh because I love Finnish more than Japanese.But Apple do not like Finnish because of Nokia and so Finnish is my friend just to **** the US and Japanese off I spent a lot of money on Apple and they just **** on us ,there is no support for Finnish but they can make Finnish pages for the web site so they have a Data bank of words surely they can make Dictionaries and spell checkers ,for example while I am writing this the computer could send the word coded to a directory and put all of them in Alphabetical order ,so when the Finnish writers for Apple have been writing years and years all those words and phrases could be stored like so. this goes to the heart of the computer that we want to find a way to write quickly and better so the software should be design for language learners and writers. some you may look at my writing and say it is not well written I am trying to improve ,but I want to the computer to do it for me because they are quicker.

Depending on the country you made your Apple ID in that will be default interface language ,

however if you change your interface and region ,it may change ,although when your Log in ID times out it will go back

to default . I want to Apple to Bi lingual user interface we can choose any 2 languages on any platform ,because many users are not native English but many are bi and multi lingual .


Japanese Key board is Haragana and Romaji =roman

Even Japanese do not use Hiragana =Kana preferences on Qotoeri

They type using Roman then it is converted to Kanji , I use Hiragana,but the drop down menu of many kanji makes it difficult to render the correct reading as many kanji have many readings


All this technology and time and workers and we can not even get a decent multi lingual

Interface , All the code writers have to do is to design a field that can contract and expand depending on the localisation

Text and insert any 2 languages


We can not even customize localisation on OS 7 8 9

Is possible to use iPhone to close the sliding doors in the cafe I am in , because it opened by itself and takes ages to close and draft of cold air comes in ,the staff have no clue how to set it or stop it from mal functioning.

New tech doors are useless ,waste recourses ,can not be closed by man power.


When we are employing robots to do something there inability to think rational will destroy humans and what will be left will be stupid Robots unable to rectify a mistake God help us if Apple goes that way.
