So how exactly do you type pinyin with the correct tones? Some people simply stick the tone number at the end of the pinyin, for example ni3 hao3. It does the trick, but it doesn't quite look as nice as those pretty tones: nǐ hǎo.

Other people just copy and from Google Translate. But that's a slow process and does nothing to help you learn the correct tones!

You might be thinking, 'The 'Japanese language'? I'm here to type Chinese!' Just trust us on this one!

Typing Pinyin with Tone Marks on Windows

Now that you've got the PinyinTones keyboard selected, you can then type the letters of the pinyin, followed by the number for the tone.

For example, to type the pinyin for 好, you simply type the pinyin ‘hao', then the number '3' (for the tone), and then click 'space': hǎo

It's great practice, because you have to remember the correct tone, but it's a lot easier than having to also remember where the tone mark goes. The PinyinTones keyboard takes care of it for you!

Mac OS (Apple computers and laptops)

We're going to be the first to admit it, typing pinyin with tone marks on Mac OS is a little trickier than on Windows.

Probably the biggest difference is that you need to remember which vowel has the tone mark. While that might seem like a big drawback at first, if you are typing pinyin to help you memorize tones, it is MUCH more effective practice if you are forced to remember where the tone mark actually goes!

To type pinyin with tone marks on your Mac device, you'll need to do three things:

• Add the 'ABC - Extended' keyboard to your input methods

• Switch your input method to this keyboard

• Type the vowels with the correct tone marks

The 'ABC - Extended' keyboard is the input method you'll need to select when you want to type pinyin with tone marks. On older Mac operating systems, this may also be called the 'U.S. Extended' keyboard.

Here are step-by-step instructions for adding the ABC - Extended keyboard on Mac OS:

1: Open System Preferences from your dock or the Apple menu.

3: Click 'Keyboard Preferences':

4: Click the + sign to add a new input keyboard:

5: Scroll down the list on the right to find and select 'ABC - Extended' and click 'Add':

*NOTE: The box that says 'Show input menu in menu bar' should be checked. This will let you see and switch your input method from the menu bar on your Mac.

There are two ways to switch to the the 'ABC - Extended' input method: from the menu bar or with a keyboard shortcut.

To switch from the menu bar, click the icon on the menu bar to bring up the input method dropdown. You can click on 'ABC - Extended' here, and switch it back to your native language when you are done:

Or, to use keyboard shortcuts to switch between your input methods, open your System Preferences again and click 'Keyboard':

New Mac Os 11

Then click 'Shortcuts' from the buttons at the top of the window, and then 'Input Sources' from the list on the left:

If they are not already selected, you can now click the boxes to enable the shortcuts for switching forward or backwards through your list of input methods.

The default shortcuts are ^ (control) + space bar to go forward, and ^ (control) + ⌥ (option) + space bar to go backward through the list.

Typing Pinyin with Tone Marks on Mac OS

You've added the ABC - Extended keyboard, and selected it as your input method. Now you're ready to type tones marks over your vowels.

The way the system works, you first give the computer the command for the tone, and then type the vowel that the tone will be over. Here are the commands for each tone:

Inefable mac os. • 1st tone: ⌥ (option) + a

• 2nd tone: ⌥ (option) + e

• 3rd tone: ⌥ (option) + v

• 4th tone: ⌥ (option) + ~ (the key under the Esc key)

So to type a first tone tone mark, click '⌥ (option) + a'. *

NOTE: You click 'a' even if you are putting the tone mark over a different vowel!

The first tone should appear when you are typing the text. Type the correct vowel and it should appear below the tone mark.

Don't forget! When you are typing characters like 女 (nǚ) - woman, or 绿 (lǜ) - green, with the letter/tone 'ǚ', you don't type 'nu' but 'nv'!

Now that you know how to type pinyin with tone marks on your Windows or Mac OS device, try adding it to your practice routine!

Type out vocabulary from our Conversational Courses, or characters you are learning in our Chinese Character Courses, and see if you remember the correct tones!

Windows Migration Assistant transfers your contacts, calendars, email accounts, and more from a PC. It migrates this data to the appropriate places on your Mac. After migrating data to your Mac, authorize your computer for iTunes Store purchases. It's important to authorize before you sync or play content that you download from the iTunes Store.

If you're migrating from one Mac to another Mac, follow the steps to move your content to a new Mac.

Before you begin

To prepare for a smooth migration:

• Make sure that Windows is up to date. Migration Assistant works with Windows 7 and later.
• Make sure that you know the name and password of an administrator account on your PC.
• Connect your Mac and PC to the same network, such as your home Wi-Fi network. Or connect an Ethernet cable between the ports on your Mac and PC to create a direct network connection. Some Mac models require an Ethernet adapter, such as the Belkin USB-C to Gigabit Ethernet Adapter or Apple Thunderbolt to Gigabit Ethernet Adapter.
• If you're using Microsoft OneDrive on your PC, follow Microsoft's instructions for uninstalling OneDrive before continuing. You can reinstall OneDrive after migration is complete.

Then use the check disk (chkdsk) utility on your PC to make sure that your Windows hard drive doesn't have any issues:

1. Right-click the Start button, then click Run.
2. Type cmd and press Enter. Command Prompt opens.
3. At the prompt, type chkdsk and press Enter.
4. If the utility reports that it found problems, type the following, where drive is the letter that represents your Windows startup disk, such as D:
   
5. Press Enter.
6. At the prompt, type Y, then restart your PC.
7. Repeat this process until the check disk utility reports no issues. If the utility can't fix every issue that it finds, you might need to have your PC serviced. Then migrate your data to your Mac.

Move your data

This section guides you through migration, post-migration, and what to do if the steps don't work for you.

How to move your information from a PC to your Mac

1. On your PC, download and install the appropriate Windows Migration Assistant, based on the version of macOS on your Mac:
   • Windows Migration Assistant for macOS Big Sur
   • Windows Migration Assistant for macOS Mojave and macOS Catalina
   • Windows Migration Assistant for macOS Sierra and High Sierra
   • Windows Migration Assistant for OS X El Capitan or earlier
2. Quit any open Windows apps.
3. Open Windows Migration Assistant, then click Continue.
   
4. Start up your Mac. Setup Assistant automatically opens the first time you turn on your Mac. If you've already set up your Mac, open Migration Assistant, which is in the Utilities folder of your Applications folder.
   
5. On your Mac, follow the onscreen prompts until you get to the migration pane of the assistant. Select the option to transfer your information 'From a Windows PC,' then click Continue.
   
6. When prompted, enter an administrator name and password.
7. Click Continue to close any other open apps.
8. In the migration window on your Mac, select your PC from the list of available computers. Then wait for the PC to show the same passcode that your Mac shows.
9. When both computers display the same passcode, click Continue on your PC and Mac.
10. Your Mac scans the drives on your PC to build a list of information to migrate. When the scan completes, select the information that you want to migrate to your Mac and click Continue. Learn about some of the data that you can transfer.
    

You can watch the progress and estimated time remaining on both the PC and your Mac. They tell you when migration is complete.

After you move your data

When migration completes, close Windows Migration Assistant on your PC. Then log in to the new user account on your Mac. The first time you log in to a user account migrated from your PC, you're asked to set a password. You can use the same password that you used on your PC, or create a new password.

After logging in to the user account that you migrated, authorize your computer for iTunes Store purchases. It's important to authorize before you sync or play content downloaded from the iTunes Store.

If you have issues moving your data

• Quit all open apps on your PC, then try migrating your content again. For example, you can press Alt-Tab to choose an open application, then press Alt-F4 to quit it.
• If your PC doesn't appear in the Setup Assistant or Migration Assistant window on your Mac, make sure the computers are connected to the same network. You can create a network by connecting a single Ethernet cable between your Mac and PC. If that doesn't help, check for firewall software on your PC and turn it off. After migration completes, you can turn firewall software on again.
• If Migration Assistant doesn't open on your PC, turn off any antivirus software on your PC. Then try to open Migration Assistant again. After migration completes. You can turn that software on again.
• If you still can't migrate your information successfully, you can use an external drive or file sharing to manually copy important data to your Mac.
