The following are some questions in using Pocket PC?
Q: My desktop Windows can not read Chinese files created on Pocket PC.
A: For English Windows 2000/XP, please go Control Panel=> Regional and Language Settings=>Advanced, then change the setting in “Language for non-Unicode programs” to “Chinese (Taiwan)” or “Chinese (Hong Kong)” for Traditional Chinese, or “Chinese (PRC)” for Simplified Chinese.
Then press OK button apply the change. This change may ask you to restart your Windows.
Q:Why no response after tap CE-Star to launch it?
A: After you tapped the CE-Star icon in start menu or in Programs, it started then display a small icon on the right-bottom of the Today screen. Switch to Today screen, you will see the icon.
Q: Where’s my english quick input?
A: After install CE-Star onto your device and turn your device default system Language into Chinese, CE-Star also disable the original english IME by default. Because this IME will work incorrectly under Chinese environment in some special situations and cause the current application exited without saving current work document.
If you still need the english IME to speed up your English input, please use registry editor utility to change the registry:
1. Open the key: HKEY_CURRENT_USERS\Keyboard Layout\Preload\1
2. There’s two values under the key: “Default” and “Old”
3. Change the “Default”‘s value to the value of “Old”
4. Do soft-reset
Note: if you turn on the English IME again, we strongly recommend you only use CE-Star input panel and Handwriting recognition panel to input non-Chinese characters in Chinese document editing. Otherwise, you use other input panels to input symbol characters after input some Chinese characters will cause the application exiting.
