How change the language of GE?
      #476904 - 06/25/06 06:13 AM

When I installed the latest version of GE, it automatically was in German. I want to change this to Englisg but somehow I'm not able to find such an option... Anyone with any help?

Hi
It is because your system is German. Changing it in the OS System Panel > Local Settings will convert you to English.

Changing Language
-----------------

Currently the client supports English, French, Italian, German and Spanish languages. This also changes the layers data that is shown, tailoring it specifically for the United Stated, France, Italy, Germany and Spain according to your language. You can change the settings using your operating system preferences:

- Windows XP:
Go to Start->Control Panel. For the "Category View", select the
"Date, Time, Language, and Regional Options", then the "Regional and
Language Options" link. On the first tab "Regional Options", change
the 'Language (Country)' combination to your preferred choice.
Restart the client.

Thanks for the WIndows hints. Unfortunately I'm a Mac user, and
I can't find the place to change the language from Japanese to English.
On a machine with the OS language set to Japanese there is apparently NO language option in GE.

I don't want to have to reset the whole machines OS settings every time I use Google Earth; that will scramble the name of any file (of which I have lots) that has a Japanese name, (just like iDisk does), but I NEED to use GE in English.

Any ideas, please?
