The little flag

I am doin fairly well with my new iBook, but what is really bugging me is the little American flag in the uper right hand corner near the time. I would really like to change it to a french flg or even a UK flag, but don't know how. Help pwease pwetty pwease? :black:

I believe that is your input flag. Go into Preferences and then International and then Input Menu and change to your heart's desire Or uncheck the checkbox that says to show input menu in the menu bar.

Thank you very much. Now I have gotten rid of the -evil- American flag.

Dont Hate!!................JK

Just a warning, if you set it to the canadian flag then your key board will work differently. for example, È this is the quote key. Leave it on the american flag if you want to type normally. Remember, the flag, along with most americans have never done anything to you.

Bone

yeah no dissing the american flag, we can be a mean group of people... lol jk

Indeed. If you don't like the United States, fine, but keep those opinions to yourself, or express them in the proper venue.

And considering you live in California

did someone say flag? And proud of it!

I said it only once, no offense meant to anyone. No right now it is a proper British flag, which pleases me much.

I have a sort of similar question. I have the american flag, but when I swap over to work in Japanese I just get a kanji. Is it possible to change that to the Japanese flag? I haven't played with it too much.

Try playing w/ the different settings in International

Ok just pointing out that there was a bit of dumping on the brits in the iBook forum earlier, so don't get all offended guys!

He didn't mean to diss your flag, but you wouldn't want a British flag hanging over your head all day either would you?

I personally think flags in the menu bar a waste of space

If there was no way to remeove the american flag from the upper right hand corner I would had to have SERIOUSLY had to reconcider switching to mac

Shame theres not a St. Georges Cross though

Yes, but I am NOT a Californian. Nor an AMERICAN. Nor am I used to the American keyboard layout.

I honestly do not mind the British flag. Better colour arrangement than the US one too.
