Have you ever tried to edit an old entry, and found it would not let you? And that entry had question marks in the place of certain symbols? Here's how to fix that:
First visit your Personal Info settings (http://www.livejournal.com/editinfo.bml). Scroll down to the bottom and choose your default text encoding - Western European.
Most native speakers of English who are Windows users should choose "Western European (Windows)" as their default encoding. Most native speakers of English who are Macintosh users should choose "Western European (ISO)".
Once you have done this, visit the UTF-8 Conversion Page (http://www.livejournal.com/utf8convert.bml). Select "Yes, mass-convert my information!"
That should cover it, unless you've got a highly customized journal, or have written in other languages.
