Dictionary not remembering my selected dictionaries When I select a word and use Define, I have to readd the same dictionaries that I've previously enabled. At first I thought each app had its own preferences, but it forgets every time, regardless of the app.

I noticed that changing the interface language will also decide which dictionaries are enabled by default (and thus not forgotten).

With English as the interface language I get the New Oxford English dictionary and the Apple Dictionary (what's this?). Like this, the Japanese dictionaries I want are always forgotten.

With Japanese as the interface langauge, I get the two Japanese dictionaries and the Apple Dictionary, but the New Oxford is suddenly disabled. Enabling the New Oxford will now be temporary, and I'd have to reenable it every time.

I'm running iOS 7.0.2. How can I make my settings stick?
Even a reset doesn't work for me, but it seems like only the Notes app has permission to actually write to the dictionary settings, so you can solve this by:


Open the Notes app
Highlight a word and select Define
Touch the cloud icon for the dictionaries you want to enable
Open any other app and now those dictionaries will remain enabled
