Accent Menu on Macbook Pro 2020 Big Sur NOWHERE TO BE FOUND
I cannot for the life of me find/activate the accent menu. I'm a modern language major so having the accents is very necessary for me. The accent menu worked perfectly fine on my 2017 MacBook Pro and now with this new 2020 with Big Sur, it's disappeared. No solution online (I've only seen 2) works. Going to Modifier Keys in System Preferences and making sure they're on Default does not work. Going to Terminal and entering
defaults write -g ApplePressAndHoldEnabled -bool true
does not work either! With this Terminal option, restarting the laptop rewrites everything and goes right back to the default setting of repeating the letters when holding down the keys. I've never had to even think about it using the MacBook Pro 2017. Now, I can't function and can't find a solution.
Really frustrating!!
MacBook Pro 13″, macOS 11.1
