jayboy Posted January 23, 2018 Share Posted January 23, 2018 For some reason I seem to get Buddhist Era year settings despite entering correct settings for normal (Gregorian) settings.Any ideas how to rectify? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RichCor Posted January 23, 2018 Share Posted January 23, 2018 Are the Buddhist Era dates are showing up in just 3rd-party apps (whose settings might be independent of the system settings), or in the the iOS system and apple apps? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sfokevin Posted January 23, 2018 Share Posted January 23, 2018 (edited) "Buddhist Era" is also the Thai calendar... So look for a date format, time or place setting that is Thai and change it to English... Did you try: Settings - Language and Region - Calendar = Gregorian and.. Settings>General>International>Calendar Edited January 23, 2018 by sfokevin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Settings>General>International>Calendar Yes. Settings - General - Language and Region - Calendar = Gregorian but irritatingly still showing Buddhist Era years in for example Google news.Maybe it's a Google issue but can't see where one would adjust in Google settings.

sfokevin Posted January 24, 2018 Share Posted January 24, 2018 (edited) What does your language & region show as date at the bottom?... like this... What app are you using to view Google News? If so are you set to English or Thai language? Edited January 24, 2018 by sfokevin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's why I asked if this was 3rd-party. Google's environment is considered 3rd party, even if you open the site in Safari. If using SAFARI Browser, open google.com/ncr make sure the "Google offered in: [language]", located below the search field, is set to ENGLISH select "Settings -> Search Settings" link at the bottom of the page under the Google Search setting of "Region for Search Results ?" select your preferred region (ie: United Kingdom, or United States) so the results returned will be formatted for that region. GOOGLE will store these preferences as a cookie setting and use them when you are on most Google-associated sites. If you clear the cookie you'll need to set up the preference for the region again to get the desired regional settings as part of google search results.
