Changing emoji skin tones

Hi Janlovesmacs,

Welcome to the Apple Community where some of us do our best to help each other.

In Safari, or some other apps,

To bring up the full choice of emoji's:

Either

Click on "Edit" in the top left menu bar, and choose "emoji's and symbols"

Or

Press these three keys at the same time: Control, Command Space-bar.

You can now scroll down to select the emoji you want, and press on it to select from the choice of skin tones, as you have done.

Your favourites, used often, will appear at the top of the small emoji window, and can be chosen in the Touch Bar on keyboard.

Hope this helps you :)

PS:

Apple support has a useful article on using the Touch Bar on MacBook Pro:

Cheers :)

I accidentally clicked the wrong skin tone, so how do I change it to the correct one?

Hi bethblue12,

Here's one way:

Delete the "wrong" skin Tone emoji by click/drag on it to highlight it. and press delete on the keyboard.

Then try again, carefully selecting the right skin tone.

Hope this works for you :)
