I'm trying to install an IPA keyboard layout. Any advice?

I have a MacBook Pro, and as a Phonetics student, it would be immensely helpful to have IPA on my computer. I've downloaded and installed Charis SIL, and the next part is to download and install an IPA Unicode keyboard layout. I've done that, and the instructions tell me to put the file into the Library folder called "keyboard layouts." I can locate this folder when searching for an application to open the file with, however when I'm searching "all my files" the folder is nowhere to be found. What can I do to successfully install this file?
Thanks in advance,
Esste

I'm not sure exactly how to open the file.
It's not something you "open". Go to system prefs/language & text/input sources and check the box for this layout, plus the box for Show Input Menu in Menu Bar, plus the box for Keyboard Viewer. Then select the layout in the "flag" menu at the top right of the screen and type. Select Keyboard viewer from the same place to see which key does what.
IPA can also be input from the Character Viewer (Edit > Special Characters) if you just need a few characters. In Character Viewer, go to the gear wheel at the top left and select Customize and then check the box for Phonetic Alphabet.

No, but it may help the chances of a successful installation.

The Original update for Apple TV was to 4.4 then a bugfix appeared called 4.4.1 Both of these have issues so Apple Pulled them and currently 4.3 is the current version for Apple TV IOS. In fact there are a number of comments in other threads where people carried out the upgrades only to restore back down to 4.3 because they did not work. Guess we will wait for Apple to send out an update.

I recently spoke to someone from Apple support, and here's what I gathered:
"Older" phones (read: anything iPhone 4s or older?) sometimes have trouble keeping up with the processing demands of the newest software. When deleting threads with a lot of media (photos, videos, etc), it can take a lot of processing to successfully delete. What this support tech suggested was picking some of the bigger threads at night before you go to bed, deleting them, and then leaving the phone alone-- and plugged in-- overnight to give it enough time to delete everything. He suggested not even pressing the lock button; just leave it to process (though I imagine the screen will lock on its own anyway).
Not sure if it works yet since I just spoke to him, but it's the closest thing I've got to a solution!

Need help after install lxde fresh (keyboard layout, policykit, ...)

i cant mount mz other ext hard disk i get this
org.freedesktop.hal.storage.mount-fixed auth_admin_keep_always <-- (action, result)
i tried to search forums and do some things but none helped
altought i selected croat as a keyboard layout during install, and it worked in lxde first time i loged in, now it doesnt work
ati propriety driver 9.3 altought it is old now supports new kernel and Xorg but i dont know how to install it, aur has missing file and if you just run from package from ati it gives unsupported os error

For the graphical keymap, try setting it manually like this:
setxkbmap <LANG> -print | xkbcomp - $DISPLAY
Substitute <LANG> for the croatian language code (for instance, you would use "us" for an american keymap, or "no" for a norwegian one. I don't know the croatian one.)

Install Solaris 10 Keyboard Layout Error

Hello,
I've got an odd problem during the installation of Solaris 10.
When installing you can change the video,mouse and keyboard settings. If i change the keyboard from US_English (default) to Belgian (AZERTY), there is no difference.
Its marked as a Belgian keyboard but it act like an US Qwerty.
Has somebody any idea why this problem occurs?
Do i need to patch something after the installation ?
Thanks in advance,
Serge Kestens

kbd -l gives me the following output.
type=101
layout=0 (0x00)
delay(ms)=500
rate(ms)=40OK, so the layout code "0" apparently means something like
unknown or unsupported keyboard layout, it comes from
/usr/lib/set_keyboard_layout, line 51: The layout name "Belgian"
is not handled in the case statement, so the "*" case is used and
sets layout to "0".
I also checked /usr/X11/lib/X11/xkb/xkbtable.map, the file
used by the Xorg server to map the keyboard type / keyboard
layout to keymap files. It contains no entry for type 101/layout 0,
so the default layout for an US keyboard is used:
/usr/X11/lib/X11/xkb/xkbtable.map, line 122:
# Type 101 Keyboards (Solaris x86 Keyboards)
101 * - pc105 us # MS_US101A_x86
...There are currently no Belgian layouts for type 101 keyboards
defined in this file!
And with the Xsun server, things are not much better. Looking
in /usr/openwin/share/etc/keytables, there are no _x86.kt.Z
keytable files for a Belgian layout. (There is a Belgian6.kt
file, but this is only used for SPARC Type-6 USB keyboards)

Trying to install Win7 but keyboard and mouse dead

I just installed Boot Camp and in the process of installing Win7 but I'm dead in the water as the mouse and keyboard (wireless) won't respond. I guess I can force quit but how do I move forward? Do I have to go buy a wired mouse and keyboard? I'm using the new Lion OS.
Thanks

Hi
I had similar problems so used a USB mouse &keyboard when installing win 7 64 bit from DVD.
As installation continues the first reboot is ok, can select country etc, but on second reboot (when the computer is named) the mouse & keyboard are dead in the water .
any ideas?
Please

Love my MacBook, but can't stand the keyboard. Any advice on modifying it

Hi,
I have a 2008 MacBook (white) and hate the keyboard. Specifically:
1. The keys do not travel as much as they should, which means they do not depress as far as I would like; and
2. The keys are not scalloped. Every other keyboard/typewriter I've ever seen has scalloped keys, which means the keys are curved a tiny bit, lower in the center and higher on the edges. This allows the fingers to strike them more comfortably. MB keys are totally flat.
By way of example, I LOVE the keyboard on the old MB Pro (until a few months ago when Apple changed the MB Pro to have the same keyboard as the MB).
Does anyone know of a way to mod the MB's keyboard? I've searched but cannot find anyone who makes a custom keyboard or top case to swap into my MB.
Any thoughts would be greatly appreciated.

My personal feeling about this is you're probably out of luck. Since the keyboard is part of the whole body of the MacBook you're not going to be able to just drop another into it. You might be able to modify the keys themselves (although I'm not aware of any modification) but then you probably wouldn't be able to close the lid and it certainly wouldn't address your need for fuller play in the keys.
About the only thing you could do is use an external USB keyboard of your liking. That would work and you could pick any you like. Of course it wouldn't make it too portable hauling around the external keyboard everywhere with you but I think that maybe you're only choice.

Firefox hangs when trying to play YouTube videos. Ending task starts the video and application, but the same thing happens when trying to view the next video. Any advice is greatly appreciated.

Task Manager shows that Firefox is still running. Clicking End Task restarts the video playing and application running (then I have to cancel the End Task and Close Program processes).

Try uninstalling Flash Player 10.2 and install the previous version, 10.1.There have been a few reports of problems with Flash that have been solved by using the previous version. You can download the uninstaller for Flash, and get version 10.1 from http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/142/tn_14266.html
The Adobe archive files contain multiple versions of 10.1 for all operating systems so is quite a large download, the old-apps lets you just download the Windows versions that you require - http://www.oldapps.com/flash_player.php
You can also try disabling hardware acceleration on Flash to see if that helps. If you can access any Flash content, right-click on it and choose Settings. In the first section of the settings is the option to enable/disable hardware acceleration.
