How to install the Japanese keyboard in your computer. Copy
and paste the link below to your browser.
If you have Windows watch this video below.
Click Start-> Control Panel,
or open My Computer, then open Control Panel.
Next, double click "Regional and Language Options".
Then, click on the "Languages" tab. Check the box next to "Install files for East Asian languages". If asked for the cd, put it in.
Next, click on the bottom "Detail..."
Click on the "Add...", then choose "Japanese" for "Input language", and choose "Japanese" for "Keyboard layout/IME". If that's the wrong input, try other ones until it works.
Click OK. Then click "Language Bar...", and make sure the box next to "Show the language bar on the desktop" is checked". OK after you check it. Then OK again.
You should be back to "Regional and Language Options". If you are going to run Japanese program, click on the "Advanced" tab, and from the scroll-down menu (NOT the one in "Code page conversion table"), select "Japanese".

If you have Mac
To enable input in Japanese (or other Asian languages), go
to System Preferences from the Apple menu, click on the blue flag icon labeled Language & Region. Click on
the button marked with a plus sign in the lower left to add a new language,
then select Japanese from the menu and click the Add button. You will be asked
you if you would like to use Japanese as your primary language; for now choose
"Use English," unless you want the menus and dialogs in the finder
and other applications to switch to Japanese.
The next step is to set the options
for Japanese input. Click on the "Keyboard Preferences…" button at
the bottom of the Language & Region window, which will take you directly to
the Input Sources tab of the Keyboard Preferences pane. From the menu on the
left, choose "Japanese." (If you have an older versions of MacOS,
this may say "kotoeri", which was the earlier, more poetic name of
the Japanese input method). You'll see the different Japanese input preference
options. Set them as follows to start out:
- Check
the boxes for hiragana and katakana.
- Uncheck
the "Live Conversion" box for now.
- Scroll
down a little further in the panel (past the content shown below) and find
an option called "Predictive Candidates"; it should be
unchecked.
- Check
the box that says "Show input menu in menu bar" at the bottom of
the preferences pane.
If you now look at the menu bar at the very top of the
screen, you should see the icon for the input menu--it probably looks like a
little flag. You can now select Hiragana or Katakana from that menu to enter
Japanese text in almost any application. For more on how to enter Japanese
text, see the page on Typing
in Japanese elsewhere on this site.) If Hiragana or Katakana is already selected as the input
method when you click on the input menu, you'll get a longer menu with options
specific to Japanese input, including a help option.
