  1. Xbox One - Language & Location problem/fail!?


    Hey I live in Denmark and just updated my Xbox One so that It would support Danish location, and all looks fine, but my problem is that I want to use Language as English and still be able to have Denmark set as my country.!

    Because right now I can only choose "Dansk"(Danish) to get Denmark.. :/

    Problem:

    "Dansk" - Denmark

    I want:

    "English" - Denmark

    Just like the Xbox360

    Are there a way I can do that or not?

    Xbox App Keyboard

    I found the solution! I am now able to type on my Xbox using my actual keyboard in windows.

    It seems to only work if your Xbox and Windows is using the EXACT same input language and location. (This is a bit of a problem for me in South Africa because the Xbox doesn't have South Africa input English languages, but I'll cross the bridge when I get
    there)

    Here is where to set the settings if anyone else needs it.

    CHANGING MY "Keyboard language" IN MY XBOX ONE SETTINGS (SETTINGS > SYSTEM > LANGUAGE & LOCATION > INPUT > KEYBOARD LANGUAGE) TO THE EXACT SAME LANGUAGE AS THE KEYBOARD LANGUAGE ON MY PC(SETTINGS > TIME & LANGUAGE > REGION & LANGUAGE > [YOUR LANGUAGE] >
    OPTIONS > KEYBOARDS)

    how to change lenguage xbox one

    Certainly, just follow these few easy steps.

    1. From Xbox One "Pins" Menu Select "Settings"

    2. From "Setting" Menu Select "About This Xbox"

    3. From "About This Xbox" Menu Select "Language & Location"

    4. From "Language & Location" Drop-Down Menu You Can Change Your Language To Any Of The Following:

    English, Spanish, French, German, Italian, or Portuguese.

    5. Do not change your location if you are in the United States. =)

    Xbox One - Language & Location problem/fail!?

    Yes! I have this same problem but I am from The Netherlands. I want the location to be The Netherlands so I can spend money on games (look I've been wanting to spend in this store for 9 months already but Microsoft won't let me)

    And I want the language to be English because that is the language I prefer AND it enables me to use voice commands. Please fix this!

    I already contacted Xbox One support on the phone and the guy barely spoke any English and I had to tell him what the options were. He did not have any idea what he was talking about before he asked his manager.

    Problem:

    "Nederlands" - The Netherlands

    I want:

    "English" - The Netherlands

    JUST like the Xbox360.

    Question about regions.

    Game disks are not coded for regions for the Xbox One and the language should be based on the language that your Xbox One console is set to under Settings > System > Language and Location.

    xbox - Dutch French issue

    Hi, is English not an option in the location and language setting on the Xbox ?

    https://support.xbox.com/xbox-one/console/system-settings

    Language and location

    The language and location settings allow you to change the language display information of your console. If you move to a different time zone or region, you should update your console settings here.

    Language

    This setting controls the display language of your console. Some games and apps will also detect this setting and adjust their display language accordingly.

    Location

    This setting controls your console region, including the region for Microsoft Store content.

    Spoken language

    The spoken language setting determines the language that will be used for voice commands.

    Can't download Far Cry 2 on xbox360 free games with gold

    If your account and actual location and console language dont match you can fail

    Which is what causes those issues 90% of the time

    If you dont live in an xbox live region you will continue to fail in downloading xbox 360 games because they are region locked

    You can check https://accounts.microsoft.com for your region

    Also.check your console and language settings so if you live in france but have an uk acount region you will always fail till you match it up
