Follow these steps for a basic introduction to Keyman for Mac OS X:
- Hi There, I've tried using the Iboot Legacy, but that one only takes me to the initial part of the 'Snow Leopard DVD' and get stuck there. The good thing is that the Iboot 3.3.0 takes me to the initial language settings, but after clicking next, I get the message ' Mac OS X can't be installed on this computer'.
- The Mac OS sometimes reports that these fonts have problems, but they do work properly and are safe to install on Mac OS, Windows, and Linux. There is no standard for literacy fonts, although Andika is the most popular and gets the most recommendations.
Note
Keyman for Mac OS X must be installed first. For help on installing Keyman for Mac OS X, please see: How To - Download and Install Keyman for Mac OS X

If the Keyman icon is not in the menu bar near the clock, choose Keyman from the Input menu in the menu bar. The Input menu appears in the menu bar only if you enable at least one input source in Keyboard preferences. The Input menu is identified by a flag or character that represents the input source currently in use.

I added an external silver numeric Targus USB keypad (Model: PAUK10U Item: 10 from Office Depot) and initially had a problem with the MBPro recognizing it. It now is functioning normally. Here's how I did it:
When you first plug it in, the MBP will recognize a keyboard was added via USB. The 'press the key to the right of the fn key' instruction will not work since there is no fn key on the external keypad as there would be on a keyboard.
If you have already gone through this step or closed out the dialog box accidently, you can find it in Apple>System Preferences>Keyboard & Mouse>Keyboard>[Change Keyboard Type]>[Continue]>(hit any key)>[Skip]>[ANSI(United States)]>[Done]. Follow these steps if you are currently at this initial newly found keyboard dialog box as well.
You may notice that when in Excel, a number will appear momentarily, but not register. To correct this, press the Num Lock key ON THE EXTERNAL KEYPAD and while holding it down, press a number key. Then release the Num Lock key. The Num Lock LED will remain on during this procedure and you hopefully will find that all keys function normally as marked in or out of Num Lock mode.
Best wishes, Bugs
