Identify an organization locale/language

When you access the
BlackBerry AtHoc
 system login screen for the first time, the system does not know what organization you belong to or what language you will be viewing the system in. The system decides which language to display on the Log In screen by running through the following series of checks:
  1. The system searches for any language-related cookies in your browser from past log ins. If you have never logged in before, the system cannot make a determination about the language to display, so it proceeds to the next check.
  2. The system tries to use the browser’s preferred locale information to determine the language to display. If the preferred language is not supported within
    BlackBerry AtHoc
     or if there is no browser preferred locale information, the system proceeds to the next check.
  3. In the absence of any language preference indicators, the system displays US English by default.
The bottom of the Log In page contains a language selection link that enables you to switch the language displayed on the Log In, Forgot Username, and Forgot Password screens.
Language selection list
Regardless of the language that you select from the drop-down menu, when you successfully log in to the system, the language that is displayed will match the language associated with your organization. If you set the Log In screen to display UK English, but your organization is associated with US English, you will see UK English before you log in and US English after you log in.
