A friend installed Ubuntu for me in spanish. I would like to switch it back to english. I tried the "apply system wide" but now it seems I messed something up, because now some things are in english and some instructions remain in spanish. Is there a way to even this out? What I would like to do is set the system language to english and all text editions to spanish, is that possible?

Maybe re-install Ubuntu in english over?

Also, I installed GNome Do and each time I try to set the activation keys, it wont remember them.

Thank you.

Go to Language support, and make sure that both the Language tab, and Regional Format tab are both set to English. I would also recommend that you go into the Keyboard layout, just to make sure English is there.

Try selecting English, Applying System-Wide, then remove Spanish from the computer. If that does not work, I would advise reinstalling... as Ubuntu might have installed all Spanish versions of the system applications.

Hope this helps.
