Getting Started: How to Enable Japanese Input in Mac OS
Today using Japanese with the Mac is relatively seamless. Mac OS comes installed with support for reading and editing Japanese--in documents, in email, and on the web. If you receive Japanese email in Apple's Mail application or go to a Japanese web page in Safari, the Japanese will probably display correctly without your doing anything special or reading any further on this page. If this does not work smoothly, if you want to enable additional features in these programs, or if you want to input Japanese text (to create documents, do web searches, or send email in Japanese, for example), you'll need to take some extra steps. These are described below, and on the other pages of this site. Witches of st. sayuri (demo) mac os.

Click on the button marked with a plus sign in the lower left to add a new language, then select Japanese from the menu and click the Add button. You will be asked you if you would like to use Japanese as your primary language; for now choose 'Use English,' unless you want the menus and dialogs in the finder and other applications to switch to Japanese.
If you have a trackpad, you may also want to repeat this process to add 'Traditional Chinese' or 'Simplified Chinese,' which will bring up a second window allowing you to choose the 'Trackpad Handwriting' option. This will let you enter kanji characters by drawing them on the trackpad.

From the menu on the left, choose 'Japanese.' (If you have an older versions of MacOS, this may say 'kotoeri', which was the earlier, more poetic name of the Japanese input method).

- Check the boxes for hiragana and katakana.
- Uncheck the 'Live Conversion' box for now.
- Scroll down a little further in the panel (past the content shown below) and find an option called 'Predictive Candidates'; it should be unchecked.
- Check the box that says 'Show input menu in menu bar' at the bottom of the preferences pane.
If you now look at the menu bar at the very top of the screen, you should see the icon for the input menu--it probably looks like a little flag. You can now select Hiragana or Katakana from that menu to enter Japanese text in almost any application. For more on how to enter Japanese text, see the page on Typing in Japanese elsewhere on this site.) If Hiragana or Katakana is already selected as the input method when you click on the input menu, you'll get a longer menu with options specific to Japanese input, including a help option.
Do I need a Japanese Keyboard?
Most users (including native speakers) enter Japanese by typing the pronunciation in roman characters, so you do not need a special Japanese keyboard.

Choosing English or Japanese Menus in Applications
To enable Japanese menus in the Finder and other applications, you can go to System Preferences under the Apple menu, then select the icon for the Language & Region preferences pane. Add Japanese to the list of languages as described above, if it does not appear there already. If you drag Japanese above English in the list, the finder and many other applications will open next time with Japanese menus. Even if you do not want Japanese menus, make sure Japanese appears somewhere in your list of languages. Just having it there unlocks Japanese features in certain software, like Japanese encoding in Apple's Mail application.
You can also set the menu language of specific applications individually. Many (though not all) applications have menus in different languages built in. You can activate these with a third-party application called Language Switcher.
