Can I use my Japanese keyboard while using English language?

Hi
I'm a complete noob when it comes to Mac's as this is my first.
I purchased a Mac with a Japanese keyboard as i'm half Japanese and use Japanese quite alot.
I'm wondering if I can use the Japanese keyboard whilst in English language mode.
I can get it to type Romaji but it won't seem to let me use the actual Japanese letters that are on the keys whilst i'm in English language.
If anyone knows a way please tell me.
Cheers

set desirable system lang (US-en) first in (editable) list here, add all keyboards you need, remove anything you don't need:
Everything you checkmark here:
will appear in "flag" menu near system clock:
also take a look at shortcuts for layout switching

I can't connect to the internet while using wi fi on my iphone 4S. I can connect on my computer and on my IPad but not with my iphone. I have tried everything. Once or twice it did connect but then disconnected immediately. I have tried everything.

If you have truly tried "everything" then there is no hope of it ever working again. However, have you tried rebooting your router?
Have you tried Settings/General/Reset - Reset network settings?

Using Tunein Radio app, while using it, radio stations start repeating/skipping

Using Tunein Radio app, while using it, the broadcast starts repeating the same sentence over and over again. It doesn't matter what radio station I'm listening to it starts skipping. Can it be caused by the wireless internet connection I'm using?

Once you are listening to a program it should bring up another window showing you the radio station, show info, etc. In the upper right hand corner there will be 4 icons, a heart with a plus symbol, an envelope, a target looking icon with a triangle in it, and a triangle with an exclamation point in it. You want the third one, the target with the triangle in it.
This is an iPad right? The icons look different if you are using an iPhone or iPod.

How to use Operating System Commands while using define in sqlplus

How to use Operating System Commands while using define in sqlplus . The Host OS is Linux
define report_name=PROD_${host date "+%b"}.html
The above is not working.
The output should be
define report_name=PROD_JAN.html
Regards,
DB

of course I was talking nonsense: the problem here is the mixing of bind variables and DEFINE variables.
With the following changes the script should work (the conditions for begin_interval_time are perhaps not what you want):
variable snap1 number
variable snap2 number
variable rptname varchar2(20)
begin
SELECT min(snap_id) into :snap1 FROM dba_hist_snapshot WHERE CAST(begin_interval_time AS DATE) >= SYSDATE-1;
SELECT max(snap_id) into :snap2 FROM dba_hist_snapshot WHERE CAST(begin_interval_time AS DATE) >= SYSDATE-1;
end;
col file_name_value new_value report_name noprint
select 'PROD_'|| to_char(sysdate,'MON') || '_' || to_char(sysdate,'DD') file_name_value from dual;
define report_type = 'html'
define num_days=2
define begin_snap=:snap1

Hi All I want to rent a film from iTunes. The language is given as french which i don't speak! How can i see if the film has an english language audio without renting it first? Thanks for help

Hi All
I want to rent a film from iTunes. The language is given as french which i don't speak! How can i see if the film has an english language audio without renting it first?
Thanks for help

The language(s) that a film is available in should be listed on its description page in the store e.g. (this is from a Mac's iTunes, I don't have Apple TV so I'm not sure if you see the same description pages) :
If a film doesn't have any alternate languages or subtitles then you will just see the 'primary' language mentioned.
If it is available in other languages, then to select it when playing it : iTunes: Language settings for video

Is there an app that will enable me to use emoji or emotions while using a bluetooth keyboard?

I have a Logitech keyboard and while I love this keyboard/cover - I just realized - I can't find a way to access the installed Emoji app I have like when I use the on-screen keyboard. When I'm using my bluetooth keyboard does this mean I have to give up Emoji?
Thanks in advance for any help.
Carol

Hi CarolV.,
Are you using a separate App, or the Emoji keyboard built into iOS6?
Although I don't have a Logitech Bluetooth keyboard, I tested with an Apple Bluetooth keyboard, iOS6, built in Emoji.
I was able to bring up the onscreen keyboard with the Eject button (upper right above the delete key) and using the onscreen keyboard I was able to press the World key to switch to the Emoji onscreen keyboard. As the Emoji "keyboard" is so graphic (switching images and selecting them) I had to use the onscreen option to select the desired Emoji.
Once the onscreen keyboard was visible, I could also change between keyboards with "Command - Space" on the Bluetooth keyboard.
So the questions become, does the Logitech keyboard have a media eject key? and does it bring up the onscreen keyboard? If not, does any other function key bring it up?
Let me know if that works. Like I said, I don't have a Logitech keyboard so I wonder how universal these options are.

Can anyone recommend a backlit keyboard to use with the Macbook Pro?

I like to hook my laptop up to a larger monitor and work that way while at home with an external keyboard hooked up by usb. I am using an older mac keyboard but its hard to see the keys if the room is not well lit. Can someone recommend a backlit external keyboard to use with the macbook pro that has a number pad? This seems really hard to find for some reason... Thanks!

Logitech makes a USB-powered backlit keyboard but it is for Windows PCs. You should check its Web site to see if it has a similar one for Macs.

Number keys on Mac Keyboard while using windows 7 in vm fusion

I am trying to use my wired keyboard with the number keys while in windows 7 through vm fusion on my mac and the number keys don't work. Does anyone know how to get these to work? I can't use them for the calculator or for quicken but when I go back into the mac calculator, they work fine...any answers out there?

YES!!!!! I usually have difficulty finding answers for issues I have in these forums. But this one helped!
I just got done installing VMWare Fusion 3 and Windows XP Home on my computer, then later noticed that the number keys were not working. talmy0 is correct, the clear key above the 7 works as the Number Lock Key on Mircosoft keyboards. Thanks, this was helpful.

Why can't I charge Iphone 4S while using blue tooth

When I go to charge my Iphone 4S in car while using blue tooth the sound stops. What can i do to correct this? Or is that jus the way it is.

Requires the support of Bluetooth Profile A2DP, that's why. Your phone supports such, but it appears your hearing aids do not.

Can I store old operating system while using current one?

I am currently running MountainLion 10.8.3 and need to use Snow Leopard 10.6 for use with an old GPS device that needs this system to download maps. Can I download and keep SnowLeopard for use with some older devices then run Mountain Lion?

The safest way is to run Snow Leopard in a virtual machine under 10.8, this works enough for what your needing without being hardware demanding also it works on Mac's that never had 10.6 at all, like the ones with 10.7 and 10.8
Unfortuntly it's a hack, you can find out how to go about it on the MacRumors forums.
If your machine had Snow Leopard at one time and you don't have BootCamp, then you can use Disk Utility or the BootCamp software to create a second partition on your boot drive. If you use Bootcamp software to create the partition, you have to change the partition in Disk Utiltiy to "Snow Leopard" and give it a OS X Extended Journaled format.
Once the partition is created, then you can hold c or option/alt on a wired or built in keyboard to boot from the 10.6 machine disks (or if your Mac originally came from the factory with pre-10.6.2 can use the white 10.6 retail disks) and install Snow Leopard into the Snow Leopard partition only.
Holding option/alt key at boot will then allow you to boot directly into either 10.8 or 10.6
You can also install Snow Leopard on a external powered drive, it has to first be formatted Partition 1, Option: GUID and Format OS X Ext J first in Disk Utility, then repeat the same 10.6 install procedure.
The advantage of it being on a external drive is it's less risky than messing with your internal drive, but it's slower a bit than being on the faster internal connections.

Can't access a bill pay while using both FF 3.6.13 & Java 6 update 23

I'm currently using Firefox (FF) 3.6.13.
I can get on my bank's web page, view my accounts, but can't get on the bill pay portion of this website. I figured it was a Java issue. I then downloaded the latest version of Java (Java version 6 update 23). I clicked around 'til I found a place to check that I had the correct version of Java on my PC, this confirmed it was on and working. I can get on this bill pay page using IE, but not with FF. I've been using FF for years and want to continue doing so. Been dogging this issue all day and night, reading all the help I can find, but there is never an answer that specifically tells me, accurately, step-by-step, exactly what I need to do to resolve this. I lay money this has a simple solution...danged if I can find it. Much thanks to anyone who can accurately define the steps I need to take to resolve this issue. Thanks!

Interesting, but that seemed to be unconclusive for them. Anyway, the fact that, for that asker, only one computer behind the router was having problems (whereas for me all computers behind the router are having problems) suggests that the problem is different.
FWIW:
tsbertalan@hustlenbustle:~$ telnet cs.ua.edu 80
telnet: Unable to connect to remote host: Connection timed out
C/V:
tsbertalan@hustlenbustle:~$ ping ua.edu
PING ua.edu (130.160.4.131) 56(84) bytes of data.
(after 5 minutes, this is still all it says)
However, from a different server (in California):
tsbertalan@boogeyman ~ $ ping ua.edu
PING ua.edu (130.160.4.131) 56(84) bytes of data.
64 bytes from 130.160.4.131: icmp_req=1 ttl=238 time=112 ms

Can not change from French Keyboard settings to another language

Just installed a user account (french) and for some odd reason every time i change the keyboard input to another language it still switches back or simply keeps on using the french input, even if i totally de-select it from the input list and leave only the language i want to use.
i ran disk utilities to fix permissions, also fixed keychain permissions as well; still the same.
can anyone please advise on what i should do about this to get it working right?

ok i finally got rid of france and the french curse here
Your right to remove the prefs folder,
1-i moved it to the desktop, and noticed when i re-logged in what was in the pref folder,
2-then narrowed it down to the files that where again created automatically in the prefs folder for the keyboard input after i selected another country flag .
3- i then drag and dropped all the files from the previous prefs folder that had the com.apple etc, and i chose to replace what i refered, like for example my DOC prefs, and the rest i did not replace.
everything is now back, this user had so many prefs since OS9 !, wierdo.
