I am, it's pretty great. Default IME is awful. It's cool that it even has eroge names.

>I installed it last night and added in a 顔文字 dictionary.
How did you do that? Link?

Google IMEs are the best.

Not so good.

It's only for Windows 7?

>>3843505
No, I'm using it on XP.

>>3843505
And Vista and XP

Its like you really cant even read your own alphabets, so why would you need one for moonrunes?

Just how many hidden pages with random tools does Google have?

>>3843485
Basically all I did was Google 顔文字辞書 and found one that liked and downloaded it. They're just text files.

Then just open the Google日本語入力ツール and import the text file. Making sure the settings are set to MS-IME and Shift-JIS.

This link has directions on exporting from MS-IME and importing to Google日本語入力ツール.

It was all over Gigazine and Twitter today so that's how I found out about it.

What is the japanese reaction to this?

>>3843525
wats the use for it if you have windowsIME already?

Love custom dictionaries. Pic related.

(屮ﾟДﾟ)屮ｶﾓｫｫｫﾝ

>>3843544
Is that iTunes? What the fuck?

>>3843549
It's called a Macintosh. Or just a Mac theme on Windows.

>>3843510
it seems you do not frequent google labs and google groups

>>3843542
It's much better than Windows IME in my opinion.

>>3843539
From what I've seen on Twitter the reaction seems to be pretty positive.

>>3843542
Windows IME is lacking lots of slang terms. And does your Windows IME have eroge names listed in it?

>>3843549
I use a Mac (´・ω・｀)

>>3843564
>microsoft
>hypothetically includes eroge names in IME
>backlash from moralfags/perpetual bashers/macfags the world over

Windows only?

W-well, it's not like I wanted to use it anyway, Google. SCIM/Anthy is clearly superior.

What about a Linux version? ;_;

>>3843581
In due time, once the hackers and crackers of the Free Sodtware-cult get their heads around the issue. Meaning theyll just steal the source code and claim it theirs.

Windows XP I confirmed own PC.
Google blog said not supported 64 bit OS even Win7 and Linux yet.

I agree there is no stress even when I use it.

>>3843600
何語

>>3843600
what can they do but have patience
it's not like google's IME is the only IME input for x64 windows and linux, etc.

>>3843616
すまねェ

>>3843623
これはほんとにウンコなMS-IMEよりはマシだと思う。

Oh wow, this Google Desktop thing is pretty cool.

I would try this but it's all in Japanese.

0x8004071c error I cant install it.

>>3843684
Enjoy your privacy.

Fatal error during installation...

ok where do i download this from

>>3843763
See the link in OP's post.

>>3843763
Download what from?

>>3843721
Why would you want it if you can't read Japanese?

>>3843734
That error code has a bunch of hits on Google. Apparently a registry tweak can fix it.

>>3843770
Student of the language, perhaps.

got a fatal and couldnt end installation, running on win7 x64

>>3843669
嗯，你说的没错
说实话我是度医学的

>>3843772
Yeah, because you should go fuck around in the core of your operating system just so Google can spy on you some more. Which is it? Your responsibility, or Googles?

>>3843786
bring that chink shit outta here

>>3843787
>Deleting the value of one registry key = giving Google complete control over your system
Cool story bro.

What's the shortcut to switch between Alphanumeric and Hiragana?

>>3843794
you could probably change it in options but i believe it is shift

>>3843784
the error i was talking about

Wait, is this a self-contained program or does it pull data from Google's servers every time you type something?

>>3843786

>>3843784
I don't think it's compatible with Win7x64 yet.

>>3843801
Nothing in the option menu concerning keyboard shortcuts

>>3843793
Nice use of greentext there, mr. tech savvy. Its like you really have the comprehension needed to actually understand what you read on the internet.

>>3843825
Nice use of sarcasm there, bro. It's interesting to hear such a derisive rebuke coming from someone who thinks Google's out to get them.

>>3843787
From Google's blog:

Google 日本語入力はネットワークに接続されていない状態、すなわちオフラインで
動作します。

It says the Google IME doesn't connect to the internet so you can use it offline. Therefor Google is not using to to spy on you.

http://googlejapan.blogspot.com/2009/12/google_03.html

So how do I switch to katakana? I can only toggle hiragana ctrl+capslock and alt+capslock does the same thing.

Just installed it and how do I turn it on.

>>3843894
type, press F7

I hope it works with Chromium OS.

So it randomly switches from hiragana to direct input and I have to change it manually, how do I fix that?

>>3844002
For me it only switches to direct input when I don't have context in a text box. As soon as I do it switches back.

>>3844011
It happens, for example, when I start notepad.

>>3844018
As of yet I haven't found a way to get it to carry across programs. Alt+Capslock makes it easier though.

anyone can confirm it DOESNT work on win7x64?

Useful but it would be more useful if I could use it on non-Firefox related things, such as mIRC.

No IME Pad = Shit

Bah, it doesn't do the whole "switch to Hiragana when you press Caps Lock" thing Kotoeri can do.

>>3844039
Doesn't work for me either, so I guess it really is incompatible with win7 x64.

>>3844093
>Draw character here using mouse.

Well? I'm waiting, draw something there using your mouse.

>>3843902

I'd like to know this as well.

>>3844044
But... you can?

Oh god yes finally working IME for XP64.

I welcome our new Google overlords.

>>3844239
Oh no, wait. It doesn't.

Fuck them in the ass in this case.

Fuckgoddamn I'm using Win7 x64. And that 顔文字 dictionary is so tempting.

>>3844373
...It's not even exclusive to Google IME. Put them into your Windows IME.

>>3844383
How do you go about doing that?

>>3844482

>>3844482

>>3844552
Don't you hate it when you forget to add the "#"?

>>3844093
This.

>Not compatible with your version of windows
FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF

>>3844093
I already have a 電子辞書 with stylus input so I could care less about the IME pad. Not that I ever used it anyways.

The only thing I don't like about the Google IME is there's no way to reverse lookup kanji pronunciations like you can with Win-IME and Kotoeri.

Just got this IME and fucking love it, this shit owns the fuck out of Windows IME. The only thing annoying is it doesn't have the drawing pad but that's not too bad and hopefully they'll put something like that in soon. Now, off to find dictionaries!

It won't install for me. What's it saying about my windows version?

>>3845649

WTF is wrong with your font?

>>3845657

Yes, that is very helpful. Thanks for the help

now you can type your meganekko slang in less than 1s. google to the rescue again!

>>3845649
>>3845671

If you can't even read that I don't think this is for you...

>>3845703

Thanks for the help, bro

>>3845657
No aero so probably an old computer or shit video card.

>>3845649
Error message says that it's not compatible with your version of Windows. If you're running x64 then that could be why.

>>3845885

Thanks
