Q: How to write Turkish on computer?

Hello everyone,

 

I bought a laptop from Malaysia and I am now living in Turkey.

Sometimes I have to write in Turkish language on my computer.

 

So, I want my Macbook's language (the normal language) English. But sometimes I want to write in Turkish.

How to do it? (I don't have any knowledge of how to install turkish keyboard or something like this. I am sorry for that...)

 

Please help me.

MacBook Pro

    Welcome to Apple Support Communities

     

    If you want to use the keyboard of the MacBook Pro, it's as simple as going to System Preferences > Language and Text > Imput Sources, and tick Turkish, so you will be able to use the Turkish keyboard. Doing this, you will have more than one keyboard type in Mac OS X.

     

    To switch between them, Input Sources will give you an option to show the keyboard menu on the menu bar, so mark it. If you want to change your keyboard type, press the flag on the menu bar and select Turkish, so you will be able to write in Turkish

    What else?

    Then If I want to write will I be able to write in Turkish?

     

     

    Thanks again...
