My account is in English, but lately documents come up in Spanish and it wont give me the option to change it. I live in Costa Rica so I guess I am being geotagged (which I hate incidentally) but there is no option to change it to English Under "idiomas" languages, it says spansih, or same as operating system  (which was in spanish but I changed most of it to english ) or one other option that I am not sure what it means...HELP, I need it back in English  My account here is noted as English by the way...

The language of the account (or the application) has nothing to do with the language of the documents you're viewing...

Impossible. The only thing that might be happening is that the documents contain a script that identifies the language of the application and changes what it displays based on that, so if the application is in Spanish it will show a layer that contains Spanish text. But that is very unlikely, and can be easily tested: Disable JavaScript (under Preferences - JavaScript), then open the file again and see if it appears any differently.
