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.

How to use French keyboard with FCP English Shortcut

Hi,
I have a new MAC PRO and im using FCP, the shortcut wont work
when my keyboard is French keyboard. I always need to change it back to english
to be able to use them. Since im always writing in french, it became a pain to switch it 20-30 times per days
On my last mac I didnt have that problem, I tried looking for some setting in FCP
but I can't find any.
Does anybody know how to make this work ?
Thanks !

Remapping is where you set keys on your keyboard to perform specific functions that aren't otherwise set to keys. Once you change your keyboard to French, you lose some of the pre-mapping capabilities. Go into Tools/Keyboard Viewer, and you can map from there. If it's confusing, look it up in the manual. It's clearly outlined for you.
Bonne chance!

Yosemite kill french keyboard and switch to english

Hi,
I am on Yosemite system.
The keyboard is switched to english each time I switch off and on my imac ( 2011). I generally see it when trying to surf and I can't enter some of my passwords because of the qwerty keyboard.
So basically when I go to the preferences and then to keyboard options, french keyboard disappeared and I have to manually add it again each time I am opening my imac.
As I am french it's highly annoying to have to change each time this way.
It was working perfectly before updating to yosemite.
Any idea to fix this ?
All the best for this new year starting :-).

Do a backup.
Quit the application.
Go to Finder and select your user/home folder. With that Finder window as the front window, either select Finder/View/Show View options or go command - J. When the View options opens, check ’Show Library Folder’. That should make your user library folder visible in your user/home folder. Select Library. Then go to Preferences/com.apple.systempreferences.plist. Move the .plist to your desktop.
Restart, open the application and test. If it works okay, delete the plist from the desktop.
If the application is the same, return the .plist to where you got it from, overwriting the newer one.
Thanks to leonie for some information contained in this.

Can a French keyboard be switched to English

Can a MacBook Air with a French keyboard be switched to an English keyboard?

Unfortunately, switching either the keyboard or the language (Settings>General>International>Language) to French has no effect on the content of the generic dictionary that you reach by double-tapping a word in, for example, iBooks, Safari or the email. Oddly, though, if you change the language to French and the dictionary does not find a definition of a word you tap, the panel that offers you Wikipedia or Google is in French. Is it possible that people in France are stuck with an English-language dictionary, even as the iPad2 itself is using French?
