| Apr 20, 2021 at 14:18 | comment | added | Yuri.teacher.English | I'm typing using ABC extended right now it says [A] ABC - Extended. I have a MacBook pro M1, maybe that's my problem. | |
| Apr 18, 2021 at 16:45 | comment | added | Tom Gewecke | @Yuri.teacher.English. You are not using the correct input source. It must be ABC Extended. You must see that in the top right corner of the screen, not “us”. | |

| Mar 1, 2019 at 16:56 | comment | added | Quinn Comendant | @TomGewecke, thanks, it works. Now, bonus points if anyone knows how to type ə on iOS? That's not so important to me, so I'm not going to open a new question, but if anyone know please reply here. :) | |

| Mar 1, 2019 at 15:49 | comment | added | LаngLаngС | You wrote "you have to set …in… menu bar". Minimal technicality: not entirely true. But a user not aware of switching sources in menu might benefit from "SysPrefs>Kbd>ShortCuts>Input Sources" as well, where you can set a switch method also. | |
