Resetting IME-Ja options to Default

[Japanese user]

Hi all

First, sorry for cross posting in two groups, if it is not good.

I am using Windows XP home edition [Japanese]
But I do not know Japanese, I struggle and learn and do.

Recently I did some modifications in the IME-Toolbar properties,
after that things gone very wrong, I could not able to input any
Japanese characters { ie After Alt + Japanese Key Hiragana is not
working}
I was trying various settings for more than a week now, but with no
luck.

I would like to go back to defalut options.
but do not know how to do that.
Could not able to find Reset all to defualt values Button :- (

Any help will be appreciated.

I wish you all a very happy and prosperous new year.

Lot of thanks in advance

Raj

Try clicking the $BF~NOJ}<0%b!<%I(B icon on the language bar (it looks
like a red circle with a weird squiggle next to it). Select
$B%W%m%Q%F%#!<(B(R) and on the first tab click $BI8=`$KLa$9(B(R).

I'm not using _Japanese_ XP Home but I think that would be
the same. Good luck.

If that doesn't work try being a little clearer about what
isn't working (and how it isn't working).

Thanks a lot, for your help.
But it did not solve my problem.

In the last mail, I was not clear about my problem.
$B#G#O#M#E#N#E!*(B my apologies


Generally what I do is,
Defualt will be english typing, so when I type alt + kanji key the
romaji letters changes to
hiragana automatically like English ra to Hiragana "ra" when I press
space then there will be an window with many options like hiragana,
katakana, halfwidth full width and kanjis.
[also there is will be an underline]


But nowadays.
1. always there is an underline. before and after alt+kanji key
2. Whatever I type always remains as english letters.
3. conversion of words does not occur when I press the space key.
4. but when I press any function key bet f6 -f9 and press spacebar or
arrow keys then I get many options but all are romaji only. lets say I
type ki, I will see ki, $B#k#i!$#K#I!$(BKI,Ki, all romaji$B!?(Benglish
letters, hiraggana, katakana, kanji [tree] are no where to be seen.

It is me who changed the options [damn my curiosity]
but somehow I forgot how to go back to normal eng/Japanese typing

Any help will be greatly appreciated.
If my expalnation is less than what is required it is becuase of the
reason that I am a newbie in NG,
not becuase of my lack sincerity in posting.

I have 100% Japanese pc but I could not able to type a single Japanese
word.
It is frustating to the extreme.

Aha. That's starting to sound a little familiar.

It sounds like you are stuck in $BH>3Q1Q?t(B mode (although as my keyboard
doesn't _have_ a 'kanji key' it's a bit hard to be sure what's going on).

Your old default would have been $BD>@\F~NO(B (for English).
Do you have a $BF~NO%b!<%I(B icon showing on your language bar?
Can you click it to select $B$R$i$,$J(B(H) ?

The default for (non-Japanese) Windows XP is
<ctrl>+<capslock> = $B$R$i$,$J(B

3. conversion of words does not occur when I press the space key.
4. but when I press any function key bet f6 -f9 and press spacebar or
arrow keys then I get many options but all are romaji only. lets say I
type ki, I will see ki, $B#k#i!$#K#I!$(BKI,Ki, all romaji$B!?(Benglish

Back to the properties menu - as well as the $BI8=`$KLa$9(B button
you can also try setting the $B%-!<@_Dj(B to Microsoft IME from
(as it probably is now) $B%f!<%6Dj5A(B.

Also are you using $B%J%A%e%i%k!&%$%s%W%C%H(B or IME $B%9%?%s%@!<%I(B ?
(I'm afraid I only know about the IME $B%9%?%s%@!<%I(B option).

Any help will be greatly appreciated.
If my expalnation is less than what is required it is becuase of the

I have 100% Japanese pc but I could not able to type a single Japanese
word.

If it _wasn't_ a Japanese PC I would recommend uninstalling Japanese
input support (you'd have to add another input language first) and
then re-installing it.

However I'm dubious as to whether you can uninstall Japanese text
input from Japanese Windows XP (although you can uninstall English
text input from English Windows XP).

Though the method has changed a little,

anyway I am able to get 100% functionlity of the IME.

I can't Thank you enough for this.
