How to Change the Keyboard Language in Mac?


* Navigate to your computer's System Preferences. (Click on the Apple logo in the upper-left corner of the screen and select "System Preferences.")


* Select "International" from the System Preferences screen.


System Preferences Language & Text Option (OS X 10.6)


*Go to the Input Menu screen.

Input Menu listing available keyboards and input palettes in OS X 10.6

*Make sure that "Show input menu in menu bar" is checked at the bottom of this screen.


*Make the Keyboard Viewer viewable by checking the box. The Keyboard Viewer will enable you to see which keys on your keyboard input which letters in the language you select. This is very helpful if you don't have access to your language's keyboard.


*Check the boxes next to the language(s) you want available to you.


*Click the flag icon (if you're in the U.S., it should be the U.S. flag) to bring up the Input Language Menu.


*Click on the language you want to type in. The flag will change to the country flag (in this case, Greek), and you'll be able to type in that language. Most programs, including web browsers and word processing programs, support this automatically. To switch back, click the flag icon and select the appropriate language.
