[Qgis-user] shapefiles

[john]

hello all, I'm new to qgis and am having a problem getting a tiff file to display with all vector files at the same time. I'm using 1.5.0 on windows vista. also can any one tell me how to get all the layers' co-ordinates to display in longitude and latitude? I've tried changing all to wgs 84 in each layer's properties-general-specify crs but can not get co-ord capture to display in long,lat.  any suggestions will be greatly appreciated.  
        thanks in advance, 
        j. rask
