I imported a few Russian Music CDs to iTunes and sadly a couple of them have garbled text while the others display fine. I know that garbled text happens when the computer doesn't have the language installed.

I remember a while ago I used Xslimmer and it got rid of some languages among other things. How do I go about reinstalling cyrillic languages?
 
Thanks!

Cryllic is not there, but Russian is there and checked. No idea how come they don't display right, in that case. But I guess there's nothing I can do about it.

At least now I know what to do incase I do need another language :)
 
Sounds like you're missing fonts or one of the language subsets/character encoding subsets. What does your Language folder show?

And do you have Russian checked for iTunes?

How do I check the language folder? The language menu in system preferences shows about 20, I really don't want to manually type them all out.

How do I check it in iTunes? I don't see any language options in preferences
 
I have same problem on my new MacBook Pro 13. Did you solve this problem? If yes, how?
Thanks.
