to english. I'll feel pretty silly if this is just a button I haven't seen... When I try to search in the market it shows up in both languages but auto-corrects in chinese. If I had more patience and time I might find this an interesting learning experience but right now I'm just getting error search msgs. any help would be appreciated
try switching the default language for the tablet to english, here are the steps: from the Home screen: Open Menu->Settings - the icon for this application should look like a cog or wheel or gears Go to Language and Keyboard - the icon for this is the letter A, should look a little like a scrabble tile there should only be a couple of limited choices, and you may have them listed in their native writing, so pick English. Otherwise I suggest trial and error.
thanks for your help, I had tried that. I finally found a similar post in general and it directed me to youtube. What fixed it for me was the pushing the left bottom chinese key on the keyboard when I was in search mode in market, took me to a screen to pick keyboards. When I did this in setting it didn't register. And because I did not know what the button stood for, did not know to push it.
