How can I remap Japanese keyboard to English?

My mom bought me a 13" Macbook Pro in Japan, running OSX 10.8. I want to know how to remap the keyboard because I'm having a hard time typing with the Japanese layout. Also, the shortcuts doesn't work. Please help. Thanks.
This is the Japanese keyboard: http://s3.amazonaws.com/dotclue.org/kybard.jpg
(eg. Change the ["] located in 2 to [@])

    How can I make a "Keyboard Lock" while iTunes or other apps are playing? They should work/play on, screen should still be on, only keyboard is (maybe Password-) locked.
    Thanx in adv, tttimo

    Menu > Apple > System Preferences > Keyboard > Keyboard Shortcuts Application Shortcuts > + > Application: Browse to Pages > Menu Title: Footnote > Keyboard Shortcut: hit combination of keys > Add
    You will need to restart Pages but should then see it next to your Menu item.

  • HT4976 how can I use emoji keyboard on iPhone 3GS????

    how can  I use emoji keyboard on iPhone 3GS In wts app nd version ov this is 5.1.1(9B206)????????

    Once the keyboard is connected, it should work with any app that uses the standard keyboard interface, so it will work with iWork.
    br121: iWork was released for iPad quite some time ago, and updated for iPhone 4 recently.

    You unzip and put the .keylayout files in /Library/Keyboard Layouts and then logout/login and then check their box in system preferences/language & text/input sources and then select them in the "flag" menu at the top right of the screen.

    Hi - I have the exact same model as your MacBook and had a few questions as mine is acting up. I upgraded the ram to 8gb (2x 4GB ram) and ever since then my computer has not been running as smoothly and the start up time is horrendous. Have you encountered this problem? And if so how did you fix? What would you advise me do?
    I was thinking of reverting back to the original factory 4GB then rebooting the entire computer. Any suggestions?
    Thanks in advance!

    try tapping holding on the key that would be most similar to the letter you want to enter, that will bring up a menu of other characters similar to that character and maybe the greek letter will be included in that menu

  • How to switch from Japanese keyboard

    Is there any way to reprogram a MacBook with a Japanese keyboard to English chacters?

    In System Preferences>Keyboard check the box for Show Keyboard And Character Viewer In Menu Bar. Then then go the box that will appear on the Menu Bar between the sound and the battery. Select Show Keyboard Viewer. This will show you your keyboard. If you press the Shift key it will show you what letters will type when you type with the shift key. Same with the Option key.
    Or you could open Text Edit and type each row of the keys and see what comes up.
