Accents with french keyboard azerty

I would like to know how to use the accents with a french azerty Keyboard. Has somebody found the solution?

I see that many of the common uses are upfront on the keyboard.
To use the circumflex (to the right of P) and grave (to the right of ù), press the accent key, then the letter that goes under it.
For tilde, press ⌥ (alt or opt) +n simultaneously, release and type the letter to go under it.

[HELP] rc.conf configuration - English System, with French keyboard

Hi
I just finished the first part of the Arch installation.
I'm a french user, and I want to do something different than the last installation
I would use my system (TTY, Desktop environment in ENGLISH) but I want use my french keyboard (Azerty).
Also, I have some files (music, movie) who contains special caracters like "é,ç,è" and I would be able to play theses files using VLC, Sonata...
I've looked the wiki, and i'm curently configuring my rc.conf but I don't know what put in.
LOCALE="en_US.utf8"
HARDWARECLOCK="localtime"
USEDIRECTISA="no"
TIMEZONE="US/Eastern"
KEYMAP="us"
CONSOLEFONT=
CONSOLEMAP=
USECOLOR="yes"
Can you help me ? Gives me the right thing to add my rc.conf please ?
Does the lines CONSOLEFONT, LOCALE, & CONSOLEMAP depend on my keyboard configuration ?
Also need help to configure the locale.gen file
Sorry for my english, I don't speak english well :S

I use the same setup, and I found the archlinux.fr wiki to be really helpful.
I have those set in rc. conf :
KEYMAP="fr-latin9"
CONSOLEFONT="lat9w-16"
Then just read through those two pages, they contain everything you need. Just skip the parts about setting the french locale and such.

If I swith to american language Alt+[ it works fine.
I don't understand
I someone in the same configuration could help me
Thank you

Alvanh - I had similar problems with a German keyboard. Try installing the script called Keyed Up. This will let you change shortcuts at will, and should allow you to find replacements on a French keyboard that work. It can be found here:

Using sysprep with french keyboard

I have a big problem when doing a sysprep with intel based macs under windows xp. By default in french, we have the french(canada) keyboard installed. When I install bootcamp drivers, it gives me the canada multilingual driver from apple which fits with the apple keyboard. When I do the sysprep with the right syntax for the apple keyboard (code the codes from the registry) :
[RegionalSettings]
LanguageGroup=1
SystemLocale=00000c0c
UserLocale=00000c0c
InputLocale=0c0c:a0000c0c
It reverts back to french canada instead of giving me canada multilingual.
I don't want to change the keyboard mapping on all the computers, I have 120 iMacs to install!
Thanks!

Hi:
A PC keyboard will work fine on the Mini. The Windows key is Command key, and the Alt key is the Options key.
I first tried a Belkin ergonomic PC keyboard that had USB ports on the keyboard. I switched to the Apple keyboard because the Belkin's keys were hard to press, and often the character was missed even though I pressed the key.
While I REALLY prefer the ergonomic style of keyboard, the Apple keyboard does have the volume up/down keys and CD/DVD eject key.

Some applications don't put accents with non-english keyboard layouts

I'm using a Portuguese keyboard with three different macs running Mac OS Tiger 10.4.8/9. Some applications (like Motion 2 and Swift Publishing 2) don't allow writing some accented characters, like (è) or (ê), that are accessed by Shift+normal key, but they do display correctly other accented letters, for instance (é), witch are accessed directly without the Shift key. This happens only in some applications and with a european keyboard layout (I tried it also with the spanish and french keyboards layouts), but not with other applications (it works all right with Word or iPhoto) and the english keyboards.
Any sugestion as how to solve this? If I create the text in some other application and paste it in Motion it works! But it's a drag.

Iweb with french accents.

Hi all, I'm using the great IWeb in french... I have found that when i create a new page with french accents IWEB creates a stange file name , but when this new web page have no french accents the name becomes ok. My Os X 10.4.8 is in french and my Iweb is in french to. By the way i'm not from France . I am from Québec Canada. I say that because we do not use the same keyboard configuration nor the same french language.
The question is , Is this phenomenone normal or is there something i can do to correct it.
My version of IWEB is 1.1.2 wish, i think, is the latest version of the product.
Thank in advance.

It's a known issue. Anytime you use characters outside the plain alphanumeric characters, iWeb will generate a more complex address and corresponding file/folder names. It may be as simple as replacing the characters with their hex/ascii codes or you may get a string of random characters.
My iWeb 2.0 wish is that we are allowed to make pagenames that are separate from the URLs. That would do away with some of the constraints like you describe in naming your page correctly and still having valid and legal URLs.

ITunesU - Tags name with french accents (é,è,à,ê,...)

Every time I try to upload files in iTunesU with french accent in the tag, I found after the upload some characters I never write in the tags.
For example, if the name of the artist is «Hélène David» after the upload the name in tags is «Hélène DavidTS». I do not understand why the letters «TS» appear in the name.
Samething happen if I write in the tag Name «L'intégrité à l'Université de Montréal : pour une vraie réussite» after the upload the new name is «L'intégrité à l'Université de Montréal : pour une vraie réussiteTALB». Same problem with the the name of the album. I wrote «Les grandes conférences du CEFES» and this text appear in the tag «Les grandes conférences du CEFEST».
How to fix this problem ?

You might want to ask in a forum specific to the Forefront server.

Problem loading Image data with French accent in file name

We have a very complex commercial application that has been working perfectly in English for over a year. We have now localized it to French and Spanish, and discovered a serious show-stopping problem. We need help fast, with the scheduled release being less than 2 weeks away...!
We iterate over a folder to find all the images in it, then display those in a user window. The code for loading the images is:
            for each (var name:String in filenames){
                var image:SmoothImageTransformable = new SmoothImageTransformable();
                var imagePath:String = dir + "/" + name;
                image.source = imagePath;
                trace("Adding Item to picture carousel with url " + image.source);
                image.data = {directory:dir, filename:name};
                image.isDragEnabled = true;
                image.setStyle("horizontalCenter", 0);
                image.setStyle("verticalCenter", 0);
                _images.push(image);
Our SmoothImageTransformable class is an internal class that inherits from Image. This all works fine for image names like 'myFavoritePhoto', 'test', 'photo346', etc. However, it fails to load the data if the file name is something like 'caméra' Any name with a UTF-8 character causes the data load to fail.
To be sure we weren't doing a load somewhere else in the code that I had overlooked, I added a "image.autoLoad = false' line in there. That did exactly as expected -- all image squares then show a grey blank, with no image shown. Removing that line (reverting to the original code, as shown above) causes all the images to work perfectly, except for those with French accent characters like the é.
HELP! Is this a known bug? Is there some additional setting I need to make it understand the extended character set? I can't find any mention about this at all in the documentation.

@markerline:
We have a fix! Almost... I don't understand one aspect of what I am seeing though.
We have one test file named "camèra.jpg" that is an example of what I am unable to load into an Image. I decided to examine the character codes at each letter, and this is what Flex has as the string:
name = cam?ra.jpg
   [0] = c; 0x99
   [1] = a; 0x97
   [2] = m; 0x109
   [3] = ?; 0x232
   [4] = r; 0x114
   [5] = a; 0x97
   [6] = .; 0x46
   [7] = j; 0x106
   [8] = p; 0x112
   [9] = g; 0x103
Note that the è prints as gibberish in the trace statement, and shows a numeric encoding of 0x232. According to
     http://docstore.mik.ua/orelly/web2/action/appb_01.htm
The unicode equivalent of Latin1 for è is 0xE8, which is equivalent to 0x232. That implies that the string is already Latin1, which I would think would mean that Windoze would recognize the file name and open it properly -- but it does not.
I then tried taking the "camèra.jpg" string, pasting it into NotePad++ in a UTF8 document, then telling NotePad++ to display as ASCII. The result is "camÃ¨ra". I then tried just forcing the file name within Flex to this new mangled string. The result then is:
MAGIC name = camèra
   [0] = c; 0x99
   [1] = a; 0x97
   [2] = m; 0x109
   [3] = ?; 0x195
   [4] = ?; 0x168
   [5] = r; 0x114
   [6] = a; 0x97
   [7] = .; 0x46
   [8] = j; 0x106
   [9] = p; 0x112
[10] = g; 0x103
Note this time the trace statement looks proper. More important, the IMAGE DOES LOAD! (Our display of the name to the user now looks like crap, but that just means I need to modify our class to have a separate 'name' property, rather than extracting it from the 'image.source')
So... my remaining question -- what encoding did I just do through that NotePad++ incantation? That site I quoted above said that it was already Latin1, which is what I thought I was trying to get to. I clearly need to write a method to map from incoming (UTF8 I thought, but maybe Latin1?) to Windows file system (Latin1 I thought, but maybe ASCII).
In other words, I am not sure what charcter set to come from or go to... It turns out the code was already in the character set I had been trying to go to (which is why it wasn't working) and the set I seem to need to go to is not the one I thought...

Want a macbook pro with a french keyboard....

Hi! I am an American Teen who travels back and forth from France fairly often every year and would like to not only own a MacBook Pro but also become fluent in the French Keyboard as well... While I was over in France, I saw MacBook Pros with the French keyboard costing roughly the equivalent of $5000 for the setup that I would like that would cost only around $3800 in the US but with a US Keyboard...
Does anyone know if its possible for me to buy a French Replacement keyboard from any store...?
And if so...does that mean I can buy a US MacBook Pro, then buy the French Keyboard, and then pay an authorized Apple Store (So I Won't Void The Warranty) to install the French Keyboard?
P.S. I'm not worried about the software... I am content for now with an English OSX and can always install the French OSX later...
Thank You Very Much,
JP

ooo ok
So in that case, I should probably order my laptop over the Phone then?
