Hi All, Is there such a things as a multilingual glossary for the iOS? I'm translating some instructions for iOS and would find such glossary usefull, specially as I know the system has been translated in my target language (and I don't have a iOS device). Thanks in advance. José Ruivo | | | Shiya Luo Local time: 17:52 English to Chinese + ... Depends on who you work for. | Dec 4, 2012 |
If your end client is Apple, your agency should provide you with the glossary. If you are working for an app developer or any company unaffiliated to Apple, then you don't have any acess. Apple's TM/TB database is proprietory and unavailable for public use. | | | Register as an Apple developer | Dec 4, 2012 |
It's free, and as long as you don't copy and distribute the glossaries from the site you're covered by their ToS. http://developer.apple.com/internationalization/downloads/ All the glossaries for the different pairs can be downloaded in XML format if I recall correctly. | | | Jose Ruivo Portugal Local time: 01:52 Member (2007) English to Portuguese + ... TOPIC STARTER .dmg format?? | Dec 5, 2012 |
Dear Shiya and Rossana, I am working for an agency working for a developer. I have registered as an Apple developer, but the only download I was able to make for a glossary is in .dmg format, which I have yet to find how to open![](https://cfcdn.proz.com/images/bb/smiles/icon_frown.gif) Thank you for your input !

José Ruivo You need this software at http://www.acutesystems.com/tmsetup.exe to open the dmg file and copy all of the .lg files (about 500+) to a new folder. The .lg file can be opened by text editor at Windows, but you need other 'extension name batch replace tool' (please search for similar tool on internet, I have one green tool, but the interface is Chinese) to batch replace all of the .lg with .txt. Then you need use another tool 'Replace_Pioneer' at http://www.mind-pioneer.com/ to extract all of the terms in the txt files. When you open the txt file, you can see the similar text: (base loc="en")Japanese Kana Palette(/base) (tran loc="zh-CN")日文假名调板(/tran) (please replace () with < , and >, same below ) After you install 'Replace_Pioneer', open it, in Setting>Encoding to change the code as UTF 8 (the txt files use this code). In Tools>Batch Runner>Pick files, to select the txt files(you may need to select them in two batchs)。In the Window, click 'Fast Replace'>'Add'. In the new window, in the 'search=>' box, to add '(base loc="en")(.*?)(/tran>)' (no quotation marks;please replace () with < , and >, but don't change (.*?)), in the 'Replace=>' box, to input '\1\n' (no quotation marks). Then click 'OK', click 'start', click 'Output to single file', then a new txt file with the terms in English and the target language is created. You still need to open the file with Word to replace all of the '(/base) (tran loc="zh-CN")' with TAB to creat your glossary in your language pairs. I just have created my own glossary in English-Simplified Chinese. Hope this helpful. Best wishes, Han

Hi, you can import the LG files into the freeware Apsic Xbench (choose Mac OS X Glossary) and export all entries as a tmx file. As for the DMG file, you could ask a friend with a Mac to extract the LG files in the Finder. BR/Johan | | | dmg2iso + Xbench | Dec 6, 2012 |
You can convert the .dmg file into an .iso packet using dmg2iso.exe and burn it, mount it or simply unpack it using any number of tools (you probably have one such "unzipper" installed in your system already, otherwise you can get the open-source 7zip). And then you can go the Xbench route as was recommended to get a workable .tmx (I don't really remember what's included in the package, but I think Okapi works too). Happy translating! | |

Xbench is really great. My previous method is really too complicated。 | | | Glossaries no longer available for download? | Apr 19, 2013 |

Dear Judith, just checked - all the glossaries seem to be in place (including the German one). Try this link: https://developer.apple.com/downloads/index.action?name=localization . If it doesn't work, send me a message through my profile and I will try to help. Andrei Judith Spangenberg wrote: Dear all, Thank you for providing this insight into Apple's glossaries.

Hi Andrei, Many thanks for the link. When I follow it, I am greeted with a blank screen, stating no records. Entering the search term glossaries equally yields no records.. I am a bit puzzled so will take up your offer of help through a message.. how strange... Regards, Judith | |
