Hi, Not a total answer to your question, but when I write an e-mail or text in French, the spell checker seems to choose the right language and puts all the accents on for me - great! Good luck, Ray On 22 Jan 2011, at 23:52, Cristina Afonso wrote: Hi everybody, I'm about to buy my MacBook Pro. The more I learn about the Mac, the more I love it! But I stil have some questions . When we buy a pc with windows installed on it, we have it prepaired for one language only. For exemple: We have the opperating system in portuguese, in spanish, italian, or in English. Can I use my mac having several languages available? For exemple: I am portuguese and there are many documents that I need to write and read in Portuguese. I like reading several other things in other languages too. I know that I can buy several voices in several different languages that are great and that I can use with my VoiceOver! Thanks in advance!
